Chapter 216: The Cat Goddess Who Only Wanted To Be A Pet
H
He looked at the tea being handed to him.
The dense spirit aura was even denser than the last time.
Just smelling it, Situ He could not help but swallow his saliva.
But he did not dare to drink it.
Because..
He secretly glanced at the counter, and a small cat’s head poked out.
The amber cat’s eyes stared intently at the golden spirit tea in Situ He’s hand.
Situ He immediately thought of currying favor with him.
Because he and the Blackguard’s think tanks had already analyzed it.
If the owner of the bookstore was equivalent to the former king.
Then, his pet.
The role of the Egyptian cat goddess was between the former King’s favorite concubine and his personal eunuch.
He didn’t dare to offend such a role!
He even had to think of ways to curry favor with her, or even bribe her..
There was no other way!
The head of the Department of Rites wanted his subordinates to be filial to him. Who would dare to not be filial?
The emperor’s beloved concubine wanted to eat lychees. Who would dare to be insensible in front of her and say, ‘No one knows that lychees come when the concubine smiles when she rides on the Red Dust’?
Therefore, Situ He only dared to smell the tea in front of him to have a good time.
Meow!
The cat goddess in the counter let out a soft meow.
She seemed to be very satisfied with him.
This made Situ He feel that he was an official.
… … ..
Ling Pingan took the teacup and made a cup of tea for himself.
He was very happy now!
Because of his hard work, he received praise and compliments from the customers!
What did this mean?
It meant that his train of thought was right!
His late-night bookstore’s differentiated operation model was working!
This was really great!
The young bookstore owner felt that his future was bright!
The bookstore was back on track and the day was just around the corner!
Of course, he would not show it in front of the customers. That would be too unstable and give people the impression of being rash and frivolous!
So, he held the teacup and took a sip to cover up his smile. But the right foot that was gently lifted up on his leg betrayed him mercilessly!
There was no other way!
He was only twenty-four years old!
He was young. It was already good enough that he could control his mouth. He really could not even control the instinctive reactions of his body.
So, in order to cover up his loss of composure, Ling Pingan asked him, “Customer, are you satisfied with the book from last time?”
Situ He looked at the owner of the bookstore in front of him.
He watched as he gently crossed his legs and then quickly put them down.

He understood that the think tank and the commander-in-chief’s guess was 100% correct!
This was indeed a tsundere Lord!
All of his actions indicated one thing — this tsundere mysterious ancient god was never afraid to directly express his emotions.
But..
He could do this, but he could not directly act according to his emotions.
He even had to convince and deceive himself that he did not see anything!
Because only in this way could the game continue!
Otherwise..
If he, who felt that the game was boring, flipped the table.
Everyone, stop playing!
At this time, Situ He could not help but feel fortunate that the history of the Federal Empire was long enough, so it could leave behind countless wisdom and allusions.
Now, of course, he knew how to answer.
“After reading your book, I have really benefited a lot!”
There was no doubt about the magic and greatness of ‘Ghosts and souls’!
In just over twenty days of cultivation, situ he had made up for his shortcomings and shortcomings and re-consolidated his foundation!
The current him was already qualified to launch an attack on admiral and even marshal in the future!
If he could get the favor of the owner of the bookstore, be lucky enough to sit in his banquet restaurant and eat a mouthful of godly food.
Situ he felt that even if he surpassed the limits of humans like commander-in-chief, he still had a chance!
“All the things mentioned in the book have inspired me…” Situ He carefully chose his words.
This was the rule of the game.
The proud owner of the bookstore was playing a game with him that Taizong, Gaozong, and his ministers used to play.
In this game, everything had a way of speaking.
It was like a diplomatic term.
You know, I know, everyone knows.
But you can’t say it out loud.
… ..
Ling Pingan looked at the old republic and shook his head in his heart.
However, the old Republicans were basically the same.
They believed in conspiracy!
In their world, the current world structure and everything was manipulated by the mastermind behind the scenes!
Fortunately, these people were basically just enjoying themselves in their own circles.
They wouldn’t affect others.
Therefore, they could accept it!
Thinking of this, Ling Pingan asked with a smile, “Customer, you came to visit us today. Do you want to buy books?”
“I just recently received a batch of new books…”
“Perhaps, there are some that you like and need!”
Situ He raised his head, took a deep breath, and then lowered his head. “Buy… I really want to buy…”
“But…”
He took out a jade pendant from his pocket.
This was a treasure that the commander-in-chief had specially approved him to take out from the Federal Empire’s special strategic material storage.
A treasure that was specially used for today’s matter!
“I’m really short of money…”
“I’ll use this item to pay for the book. I wonder… If you’ll agree to it?”

Ling Pingan looked at the jade pendant that the other party had handed over.
It looked rather simple.
However..
The quality was average!
He took it over and rubbed it in his hand. He felt that this jade pendant was probably an ordinary item that had been polished out of some kind of jade.
The market price was probably only one to two hundred dollars, at most three hundred dollars!
However..
This was within his expectations!
After all, when this customer came last time, Ling Pingan already knew his background.
A pitiful person!
A man who gave all his wages and income to his wife.
A man who always had only bus money and breakfast money in his pocket.
A man who even had to apply for a meal with his wife!
Thinking of this, Ling Pingan accepted his jade pendant!
Then he said to him, “Coincidentally, I plan to launch a barter model recently…”
“Leave your jade pendant with me first…”
“When someone is willing to pay for it, I’ll settle the bill with you. How about it?”
Situ He listened.
He thought of the strange woman he met when he first entered the fog.
That woman even pointed at him with the owner’s flashlight!
Obviously, the owner of the bookstore was not just doing business in this world.
His business might have gone deep into other worlds!
And in those worlds, there might be people who had the currency that the owner of the bookstore needed.
Thinking of this, Situ He nodded. “Everything is up to you!”
Then, he watched helplessly as the owner of the bookstore put the jade pendant, the treasure that he took out from the Federal Empire’s special strategic material storage, into his own counter.
It was like throwing a worthless sundries at home.
“That is a precious jade that has been enshrined in the Celestial Master Hall of Dragon Tiger Mountain for a thousand years…” Situ He swallowed his saliva. Naturally, he knew the origin of this jade pendant!
At the beginning of the recovery of the spirit aura, Celestial Master Zhang of Dragon Tiger Mountain had found this magical jade pendant in the Celestial Master Hall of his ancestral land.
It was found under the Master Tablet of the Celestial Master Hall.
It had been worshiped for a thousand years!
A thousand years of worshiping and the prayers of generations of celestial masters had gathered in it.
Therefore, after the recovery of the spirit aura and the spirit aura tides, this jade pendant had become a treasure!
Its use was very simple!
It could fill it with mana and be used whenever needed!
And this jade pendant could store the full mana of a Blackguard Lieutenant General at most!
This was equivalent to being able to replenish mana at any time in battle!
Commander-in-chief had carried this jade pendant when he killed the awakened evil god of Nanyang!
To put it bluntly, this jade pendant was one of the most precious treasures in this world!
But in the hands of the owner of this bookstore, it was nothing more than a piece of tattered jade.
Moreover, it was a piece of tattered junk that he had reluctantly accepted.
It was because of his efforts that he was willing to accept it.
… … … ..
Meow!
When the owner of the bookstore turned around and walked toward the silent and Deep Dark Abyss.
The cat goddess, who had been lying on the counter, jumped down from the counter.
She gracefully walked to situ he and lightly jumped onto the table.
Situ He quickly smiled and handed his cup of golden tea to the cat goddess. “Drink!”
The cat goddess called out softly and was very satisfied with Situ He’s reaction.
He stuck out his tongue and gently sipped at the tea.
Golden light slowly seeped out from all her fur. The shadow of a pyramid was reflected behind her.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Situ He said softly to her, “The Egyptians miss you very much…”
“They have held four ceremonies in the last half month…”
But the cat goddess turned a deaf ear.
She did not seem to care about the country that had once worshipped her for thousands of years.
But Situ He’s goal had been achieved!
Whether the Egyptians could save their guardian God would depend on their own efforts!
After all, in Kunlun State, the status of the Egyptians depended entirely on the protection of an awakened goddess!
The cat goddess gracefully finished her tea.
Then she jumped down from the coffee table and walked back to the counter.
She jumped up and poked her head out from the corner of the counter.
The pyramid behind her was reflected on the ground.
Countless prayers were heard.
Situ He looked at it and immediately understood that the cat goddess knew the prayers of the Egyptians.
But she could not respond!
Because she was only a pet now!
A pet had to look like a pet!
At the same time, Situ He also understood why the Kingdom of Egypt would not hesitate to hold a sacrificial ceremony!
Because the cat goddess had restored her authority and status!
This ancient god, who had only awakened a little bit of spirituality, had now returned to her prime!
Naturally, the Egyptians had channels to feel it.
As such, they naturally attached great importance to it!
Today, with this transcendent being able to suppress the fate of the country.
A completely revived goddess was enough to make a small country become a regional overlord!
In a sense, the best defense policy for a kingdom like Egypt was to have a transcendent being who could suppress everything around them!
There was nothing more suitable for the needs of the Egyptian kingdom than the cat goddess!
Economic, affordable, reliable, and powerful!
However, the cat goddess seemed unwilling to respond.
Looking at her attitude, she was only willing to be a spoiled kitten under her master!

The Girl in the Abyss
Synopsis: The mysterious force known only as "God's Guidance" implemented a game-like system and rebuilt the planet using continents from five different worlds. Join Ellie, a young girl whose soul is filled with an ocean of love and trust. No matter how horrendous the circumstance or dreadful the suffering her kindness manages to shine through, but everyone breaks eventually. Watch as the horrors of reality slowly chip away at a pure soul until nothing but a monster remains and follow her down the path of despair as she finds a reason to live. ‘Our fate is one that always leads to suffering, but you can smile, I’ll shoulder everything else.’ Warning 1: This story covers very mature themes which I have listed here: Torture of a child (The MC is the victim), death, killing, slavery, and light gore. Nothing sexual ever occurs to the main character. Warning 2: This is another apocalyptic LitRPG, has a brokenly OP MC, bad writing, horrible grammar, and garbage sentence flow. It is my first attempt at writing a story since grade school. Inspired by my four favorite stories: Overlord, CLANNAD, The Arcane Emperor, and Tokyo Ghoul. A note by me: This is not a world domination story or an action story. There is fighting but it's not the focus. Another note by me: This is a work in progress. I’ll likely go back and change stuff a lot. The cover art is by a friend who has encouraged me since the start. Releases: Volume two will not be out anytime soon sadly. I apologize for the Hiatus.

The Heretic Legion
Cover Art: Undead Master by Changling Assassin. Located at: http://fav.me/dbm60ex Used under license Creative Commons attribution non-commercial 3.0 per bottom right of the linked page. Summary: Just the story of a necromancer and his eventual army. Currently, the only major thing of note is a pretty fleshed out magic system. No set list of spells or specific incantations. Just rules similar to the laws of physics, within those laws you can do whatever is possible. Updates: I work Sunday thru Wednesday and updates tend to revolve around my scheduled days off. Currently, I release content as I feel it's ready for release because that's what I myself would prefer from an author. Warnings: This story is graphic. blood/necromancy magic that requires self-harm to use. explicit descriptions of sexuality. (though fairly tame outside of the marked chapters, at least compared to said chapters) and is generally darker in tone. If you're concerned you might start to read only to be turned off by these elements. See 7. Teetering on the Edge for an example of the graphic nature of violence or 9. Explicit Content for a fairly self-contained example of the most explicit of the sexual content.
