The orc who was relaying the message in the Rootless City thought he had gained support and was about to make a few sarcastic remarks when his leader suddenly revealed his tail and slammed him hard against the stone wall.
With a thud, he fell down, his nose bleeding, and he looked like he was about to cry.
"How dare you treat me like this?"
"If you say another word, just kill him."
The leader spoke concisely, his cold demeanor undisguised, making Mao Duoduo ready to applaud; he was truly too cool.
I wonder if the snake cubs will have even half the courage when they grow up!
"I...I'll tell you." The orc who delivered the message tried to wipe away his tears, no longer daring to hide his selfish motives, and revealed his most important purpose this time.
"The city lord said, if you still want your companions, then bring Cat Duo Duo in exchange!"
"I really have nothing more to say. I'm here as an envoy, you can leave now..."
Seeing the fear and unease on the other person's face, CatDodo, who had been stunned by the other person's words, cursed the idiot in his heart.
"You can go now."
The leader's words prompted the messenger to leave in a hurry. Of course, he didn't notice that there were several people following behind, preparing to put sacks on his head.
"I will not allow what he just said."
In fact, as soon as the other party left, the leader frankly said, "We, the snake demons, are not so low as to ask females to risk their lives in exchange."
Everyone nodded vigorously, agreeing that females should be pampered and not risked.
CatDodo: "..." I have a feeling these guys are thinking about things that will make her angry, and my hands are itching to do it.
The leader continued, "Moreover, she rescued everyone in time this time, preventing our deaths. She is our benefactor."
This statement successfully gained everyone's approval.
CatDodo watched as these excited, muscular snake-men, armed with weapons, repeatedly declared their determination to save their brethren.
Their hatred for the scorpion orcs ran so deep that they would never bow down to them with mere shouts!
Cat Dodo waited to go back, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
Goodness, this place seems pretty good, but she always felt that if these people didn't improve their thinking, they would continue to be targeted in the future.
However, the information she received this time still made her lose her appetite, and her mind was filled with searching for clues.
The snake cubs either sensed something but dared not reveal it. They obediently went to sleep, hoping that the mother they would see the next day would still be the gentle, warm, and happy woman they remembered.
Snake Rong was decisive; he grabbed Cat Duoduo and made her sit on his lap. He put one arm around her waist and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"W-what's wrong?" Mao Duoduo blushed immediately, subconsciously pushed the other person away, and stammered, "Don't touch me like that."
A hint of bewilderment appeared on She Rong's handsome face, as if no matter how intimate the act was, the other party still wore an innocent expression.
Now, he had one arm around Mao Duoduo's waist and the other hand hooked her chin, and he lowered his head to kiss her.
He appears harmless, but in reality, he craves intimacy more than anyone else, like a machine that only knows how to make one-sided demands and has no idea when to stop.
Just as Mao Duoduo was waiting for the other person's hand to linger intimately over her waist and abdomen, seemingly about to take off her clothes, she blushed and interrupted him without any politeness.
That's enough.
Why not?
Snake Rong appeared unfazed. "You clearly enjoy it when I do this to you. The last time I entered you like this, you kept saying how much you liked it..."
"Shut up, you idiot! The babies are all over here." Cat Duoduo blushed and headbutted the other person without any politeness, then quickly got up and distanced herself.
She checked again to make sure the snake babies were really asleep, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as he sat down on the boulder, he prepared to enjoy the cool breeze.
She Rong easily sat down to one side, looking over curiously. "Why are you angry? Or do you feel that I'm not giving you enough happiness..."
The conversation eventually turned into completely restricted topics!
Cat Duo Duo blushed involuntarily and quickly interrupted the other person.
She scratched her head in distress and tried to whisper to someone, "Well, let's change the subject... To be honest, I heard some things from the leader today."
After she finished speaking briefly, she couldn't help but sigh, "The City of No Roots is really too arrogant, it specifically wants me to go and make an exchange."
"If they touch you, I'll make them regret it," Serpent Rong said, enunciating each word clearly.
CatDodo couldn't help but laugh. Well, this guy's talking is getting more and more like a domineering CEO.
Even so, she still grasped a key point and whispered to the other person, "I suspect there's a spy here. It's such a coincidence. Don't you think so?"
She carefully explained her suspicions, and it could be said that each one seemed to be the kind that was not easy to detect before, but after a comprehensive review and sorting, the trickery became obvious.
Serpent Rong listened carefully to her words, and finally said, "Is this what you call being in a difficult situation?"
"Yes." Maoduo sighed, she was really conflicted.
"Don't worry, I'll handle it. You get some rest."
"...You really do know how to talk like that."
This time, Mao Duoduo said it, but a smile involuntarily appeared on her face. She simply closed her eyes and rested properly.
She Rong waited carefully until the other party was completely asleep before quietly leaving.
Since the goal is to put the other party at ease, the only solution is to eliminate the person who makes the Serpent Rong feel uncomfortable.
"You mean there are spies here?" The leader hadn't expected to receive this information in the middle of the night.
"Yes." She Rong glanced at the time and said dryly, "I don't know anymore. I'll go back and keep my partner company."
"etc--"
Before the leader could finish speaking, watching the other party quickly run away, he couldn't help but laugh and cry: "Aren't you worried that I won't believe you at all if you're in such a hurry to leave?"
You should know that the only real outsiders on their side are a handful of people.
Given that the majority of the snakes are closely related, it's quite remarkable that CatDodo was able to discover the traitor.
Now that he's discovered this information, perhaps it's time for him to make some good moves.
Snake Rong moved like lightning in the night, and no one could catch a glimpse of him.
In the blink of an eye, he completed his mission and returned to his temporary lodgings. By then, CatDodo was already fast asleep, cuddling with the snake cubs.
She Rong was careful not to wake them, so she gently held them and they drifted off into a sweet sleep together.
Goodnight, cats and snakes.
In the dream, there were no outside affairs, and they were a close-knit family, which was quite nice.
