"Mr. Gordon, what's wrong?"

Nina looked at the black cat in her arms and couldn't help but look in the direction of Foreman, and subconsciously asked softly.

"Meow~"

The black cat held her head high, meowed innocently, and poked her with her little claws.

As if to say, what are you telling me to do?

Mr. Gordon can't speak!What's going on?

Nina was a little confused.

However, within a few seconds, Nina's heart was synchronously reminded by the pseudo-dragon Liz.

"Nina, Lord Gordon asked me to tell you that there are people around, and I will be asked to speak in my place in the rest of the conversation!"

Hearing this, Nina realized that this was no longer an underground cave.

She lifted her little face and looked at the faint gaze around her, and she realized that someone was watching them.

So, she pursed her lips and looked apologetically at the innocent black cat, rubbing its head, signaling that she knew she was wrong.

Gordon meowed again indifferently, and he didn't expose it anyway, which was not a big mistake.

After all, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with naming your pet "Mister", such as a certain lich.

It no longer looked in the direction of Foreman, but like an ordinary black cat, squinting and enjoying Nina's gentle smooth fur service above~

A black cat can talk is not uncommon in Karandu, but it is not very many.

Gordon didn't want to be noticed, or wary, for that.

The gloomy color of Foreman's distortion made it smell that something was wrong, as if it had missed something.

Could it be that the cultists are already targeting them?

Gordon also looked a little confused, and he began to talk to Celia through Liz.

Although it is a bit troublesome to chat like this, at this juncture when he is about to leave, Gordon can't care so much.

It needed to remind them of the possibility of an enemy attack, and from that face, it sensed that the cultists were not going to give up.

It's not that it didn't think about letting Celia take action in advance and strangling the sprouts in the cradle.

But in full view of everyone here, they can't do anything at all, but they startle the snake.

And the assassination was unrealistic, and Celia, as a warlock, could not chase down an experienced wanderer, even if he was only a second-order.

What's more, this piece of land is Ouroboros, and it is easy to be self-defeating to follow it.

So Gordon could only urge a carriage to hurry up and rush to the docks, hoping that their reaction would not be so fast.

Before they could react, they had already left Karando by boat, which was the best.

However, what should have happened happened anyway, as Nina walked to the docks in a carriage with Gordon in search of the boat.

Foreman had already returned to Ouroboros' headquarters and told Vermeer about Celia's refusal.

Vimeer, who was already a little restless, also became a little gloomy.

"Irene refused?

"The last time I met her, I thought she had a good chance of agreeing, did you provoke her?"

Vermier frowned at the wanderer, who had his head bowed and didn't dare to speak, and asked.

Although Celia was not irreplaceable in her plans, she felt very wrong when such a sign appeared just before the ritual was about to begin.

"I didn't, Lord Vermeer!"

Foreman hurriedly defended with a bitter face.

"How can that be?"

Vermeer naturally knew Foreman's temperament, and he asked this to know a reason, which he said a day ago.

changed the hexagram the next day, which is not like the style of the "Miss Wind Explosion".

The reason for this, though, was not long in coming.

Irene and her sister were seen aboard a merchant ship bound for the New World with a black cat.

......

"Look, Mr. Gordon, it's so big!"

Dock area, southeast port, a three-masted galleon.

Nina stood on the stern side of the upper deck with the black cat in her arms, looking at the scenery under the three-masted merchant ship with her feet in her arms, her tone full of amazement, and her expression was filled with the most innocent smile.

The dark golden vertical pupils looked a lot softer.

Celia wasn't here at this time, but in the cabin below deck.

In addition to her and Gordon, there are many adventurers, merchants, and travelers who blow the cool sea breeze from the northern glaciers in the warm sun.

The reason Celia wasn't there was because it asked Celia to help store a three-ring spell in its Magic Ring.

Since the last time [Petrification], Gordon has stored several spells in it, but after Gordon saw Foreman today, he felt that it was necessary to store a [Stealth Orb], so he asked Celia to help store it.

As for storing spells, a quiet environment is required, and a closed cabin is naturally the best choice.

"General Goods~"

Gordon didn't bother to look at the scenery praised by Nina, and secretly said in his heart, after all, he had experienced the Internet in his previous life, and he had never seen anything.

What is there to see about the medieval port, it has also been seen several times in the sea before.

And on the way here before, I have seen it many times from afar.

But still pretend to cater to Nina, after all, she is rarely so happy.

So, it meows in agreement.

Ko Nina looked at the black cat in her arms with a face facing her chest a little speechlessly, and said helplessly.

"Mr. Gordon knows how to coax me, you can't see anything from this angle!"

What's more, Nina can only see the scene outside the railing with her feet, and the black cat in her arms is naturally impossible to see.

So, she was a little helpless.

Mr. Gordon is good at everything, but he likes to treat her like a child.

She's obviously not too young anymore.

"Meow (Where)"

Gordon retorted.

Turn your head, go up, and make an effort to pull the railing.

But before the claws could touch the railing, Nina lifted them up with both hands and placed them on top of her head.

Then Gordon listened to Nina's laughter from below.

"In this way, Mr. Gordon can see more than Nina!hehe~"

As she spoke, she stepped on her feet again.

Nina had come to the docks from a distance before, but this time she felt very different on the boat.

In particular, this kind of long-distance ship is often much larger and higher than similar ships, which makes Nina feel like she has a view of the mountains.

She felt it necessary to show Mr. Gordon the need.

And Gordon also looked at the thousands of sails, the noisy coast of the port of Calando, and looked at it up close, there was indeed a sense of impact.

However, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it will be aesthetically tired after watching it for a long time, not to mention that the purpose of Gordon coming to the deck is not to see these so-called scenery, or to prevent the wind.

It's about gathering information.

It was listening to other sounds with its ears pricked up, and the message mixed with the wind was what it wanted to hear the most.

The cat's ears were sensitive, at least much more sensitive than those of dragons, so much so that Gordon could hear movement in the nearby cabins below deck.

The content of the travelers who leaned on the railing and chatted about the day could easily be taken into Gordon's ears.

You must know that in this era of inconvenient information exchange, there is no one more well-informed than these travelers and merchants who travel on various continents.

There was a lot of information from them, and although it was not as well-informed as the taverns with the majority of adventurers, it was better than nothing.

Gordon was trying to absorb what it didn't know.

And observing the crowd in the body of a cat is a new experience for Gordon.

I also heard a lot of valuable information.

Such as.

"In the west, an elderly red dragon has appeared in the mountains of San Misore, blocking the trade routes, and adventurers have already gone to try to slay the dragon. ”

"More than half of the orcs in the New World have been swept away, and the three kingdoms have fallen to the feet of those orcs' wolf cavalry!"

"The temple of Shuna is preparing a huge festival in a vain attempt to please the gods. ”

"An unknown creature has appeared in the ground near the Northland Winter Valley, and more than thirty villages over there have all disappeared. ”

......

These messages, especially those from around the world, made Gordon feel the impact of the eve of a turbulent year.

The only fly in the ointment is that it seems to be a bit silly as a black cat that can attract the attention of many human females.

So much so that many active female travelers stepped forward to ask Nina softly if they could touch the black cat in her arms.

However, Nina rejected these words with her cat being more afraid of life, or afraid of hurting you.

After all, Nina knew what she was in her arms.

At this time, Miss Warlock Celia also ascended the wooden staircase to the aft deck, and the pseudo-dragon Liz was lying on Celia's shoulder, very well-behaved.

It's not that it doesn't want to move, but Gordon told it not to fly, and now its main role is to act as a spiritual link to communicate with Nina and them anytime and anywhere, and the signal is not good if it is too far.

As soon as Celia, who was able to tame the pseudo-dragon, stepped onto the deck, many knowledgeable adventurers and travelers were eyed by it.

They all looked at the spellcaster with awe, and for a moment the voices on the deck were much quieter.

And Celia, whom they were in awe, was a little speechless at the black cat that seemed to be scratching her head and speechless because of her arrival.

Through Liz, the message was silently transmitted in her heart.

"Master, what you have told me is done!"

After finishing speaking, she said hello to Nina who was looking over.

When she stepped forward to talk, she secretly stuffed the ring where the spell was stored into the black cat in her arms.

Gordon took a bite and put the ring back into the dimensional pouch that hung around his neck and disguised as an amulet.

"How long do you have to sail?

Gordon asked, passing Liz.

"I just asked the captain, there are still a lot of people, and it is estimated that I will have to wait for several hours, and I may not be able to drive until after lunch. ”

Celia said quickly.

The ship's destination was the port of Saluva in the New World, an important trading port belonging to the kingdom of Tochia.

The difference in price is generally earned by transporting goods that are in demand on both continents.

It is also one of the few ships closest to the route of Rika Island.

Before getting on board.

Gordon was looking at the flight schedules, with the route charts.

It found that there were not many ships that immediately sailed past or approached Rika Island.

Other ships either deviated from course or passed by the habitat of some ferocious creatures. For example, dragon tortoises, such as sea dragon beasts, and even bronze dragons.

And this, it is often necessary to pay a sum of money to appease them.

Gordon originally wanted to bypass them, so naturally he wouldn't run to their territory and return to Rika Island, wouldn't it be okay to find trouble.

As a result, Gordon did not find a ship to go to sea immediately for a while, so he could only choose this merchant ship that was not yet full.

It took a lot of time for everyone to get together.

Originally, it was a little worried that Foreman might bring Ouroboros with him when he returned.

But a lot of time had passed, and no one had been found, so Gordon let down his vigilance slightly.

After all, Gordon thought about it.

If Celia is really important to them, basically someone is watching them all the time, and they will never be like this, letting her go out and board the ship without caring about it.

So, she may just be an insignificant character.

However, it was also as they looked out into the distance from the deck, full of anticipation, as they waited for the merchant ship called the Whale Swallower to set sail.

A charming voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Irene? Are you leaving Karando? Oh, you don't say a word? It's good that someone saw you, otherwise I wouldn't have known you were going to the New World without a word?"

At this time, Celia was still talking to Nina quietly on the deck.

When she heard this voice, her face turned pale, and she subconsciously turned her head and saw the stairs she had come up from just now.

A swarm of people poured in, all members of the Ouroboros gang she was familiar with.

In the center of it is the woman who made the voice just now, and it is also the leader she is familiar with, Vermier.

Vermeer waited for the stairs to reach the deck and head towards Celia.

Her dress is still breathtaking, and her graceful body is outlined in a gold silk black robe, but the fierce black street thugs beside her make many onlookers choose to withdraw their eyes and only listen with their ears.

"Vermeer, it doesn't seem that my relationship with you is as deep as you say!"

Although Celia's expression changed, her tone remained calm.

She is only a nominal name in the Ouroboros, and she is completely confident to say this.

"This ...... I don't care, but you really don't think about helping me once?"

Vermil looked embarrassed, but she quickly recovered, and continued to smile at the corners of her mouth, looking at Celia in front of her, and by the way, at the dragonborn girl hiding behind Celia.

As for the black cat she was holding in her hand, it was directly ignored in the past.

"I'm sorry! I really have something to do, I can't help you!"

Celia looked at the menacing Vermier and said the same.

"Really?"

“......”

Celia said no more, the wind in front of her had appeared, and the appearance of the [Wind Coat] proved her attitude.

Even Vermeer, who was a fourth-order blasphemous sacrifice, shrank his eyes slightly when he looked at this fierce wind.

But there was not too much fear in his expression.

A warlock of the wind elemental, what a ......

What a wonderful replacement!

She licked the corners of her mouth, but at the same time, she secretly hated the person who had disrupted her plans.

Just a few hours ago.

Someone destroyed the warehouse of the Dragon Hunters, and all the slaves were gone!
