The Greece Antagonist

Chapter 120: King Arthur's Assassin (Daily Update, Seeking Votes)_2



Whether it's sacrifices, ceremonies, or faith, they're all prepared for her.

So, does this mean they are using offerings meant for me to threaten me?

Accompanied by a rising sense of absurdity, Morgan found it funny, and couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile.

"What are you laughing at? If you don't hand over the offerings honestly, none of you will have a good time! Lady Goddess will punish you!"

The green-skinned little goblin waved a gap-filled blade, putting on a fierce look.

However, before he could show off a few moves, a small stone flew out from the crowd and hit the Pique's forehead, nearly knocking him out.

"The offering you mentioned, should be this one, right?"

Accompanied by a magnetic voice, Luo En walked out from among the elves, holding a small white-furred beast.

It looked like a cat, yet also like a dog, with golden eyes gleaming with spirituality, and a fluffy long tail swaying like clouds. Its appearance was very cute and harmless, having a lethal appeal to women who love pets.

But at this moment, the white little beast's fur was disheveled, its spirit listless, seemingly drained of energy after prolonged captivity, unable to even stand steadily, and could only lie in Luo En's arms, surrendering to strokes.

"Found it after all!"

One of the Piques exclaimed in surprise.

You idiot!

The relatively robust leader, furious, kicked the little brother behind him, then continued to put on a stern face and snorted coldly:

"This is just one of them, where are the other offerings?"

"There's only this one."

"Nonsense!"

"Your wagon and cage told me."

Luo En replied with a smile, then stepped forward to inspect the wreckage on the ground, explaining to the curious elves around,

"Look, such a big wagon, yet the wheel tracks are very shallow, obviously not carrying anything heavy. Moreover, the cages are all new. If they were really filled with offerings, these offerings would eat, drink, and defecate inside during long-distance transportation, leaving traces behind.

But in the end, the only evidence is a strand of hair like this."

As he spoke, Luo En picked up a silky white hair from the wood chips, and along with the small beast in his arms, showed it to the surrounding elves.

Just by the color and texture, one can tell that this undoubtedly came from the white-furred little beast.

In other words, the so-called "many offerings" simply didn't exist; it was just a trick these Piques used to extort outsiders.

"I knew these guys were deliberately causing trouble!"

Clearing her suspicion, Bawansi was spirited and, raising her whip, prepared to lash these Piques who wanted to extort, turning them into minced meat.

However, her raised hand was pressed down by Morgan.

Compared to elves who like to act impulsively, Morgan preferred resolving problems rationally and peacefully:

"Why are you doing this?"

"Savin Festival is coming, but we're still short of offerings..."

"Recently, there's been trouble in Wales, we're too weak, can't catch anything even if we try..."

"The delivery day is approaching, if we can't gather enough, the hot-tempered folks from the Tooth Clan will tear us apart."

Seeing the plan fail, the Piques had no choice but to tremblingly reveal the whole story.

"So, you thought of extorting outsiders?"

Morgan snorted coldly, her eyes revealing a shade of gloom.

Piques are traveling merchants among the elves, weak in combat ability, and naturally don't dare to extort strong elves. Doing this in Oakney clearly meant they thought the Rain Elves residing there were weaker and easier to bully.

Yet these Piques didn't expect the random target for extortion on the street to be an elf knight blessed by the Goddess, who held a title.

After clarifying the ins and outs of the matter, Morgan looked at the trembling Piques, snorted coldly, and said:

"Get out of Oakney before I lose my temper!"

Realizing they narrowly escaped with their lives, the Piques dared not linger, and under the jeers and curses of the elves, fled Oakney tumbling over themselves.

"Fuwu~ Fuwu!"

At this moment, the little white-furred beast in Luo En's arms also excitedly waved its fluffy little paws, celebrating the villains' defeat.

Soon after, the little creature jumped onto Luo En's shoulder, affectionately nudging the face of this life-saving hero, and happily chirped by his ear.

"Fuwu~ Fu!"

"You say your name is... Kathy Palug? And you were kidnapped by them from Wales..."

Luo En was stunned, immediately lifting the white-furred little beast from his shoulder to look closely, with surprise in his eyes.

Kathy Palug? Could it be so coincidental?

This name first appeared in the "Welsh Triads":

Also known as the three-eyed cat monster, it was born from a white pig named "He Niwen." According to prophecy, the offspring of "He Niwen" were bad omens, so the Welsh locals chased it away, driving it into the sea, but it didn't die and drifted with the sea, leaving descendants in various places, among which Kathy Palug stayed on Anglesey Island in Wales, gradually growing into a renowned beast.

The "Carmarthen Black Book" records another story related to it:

King Arthur's brother, the Round Table Knight "Kai," led a campaign to "Anglesey Island" to slay the monster "Kathy Palug" there, also called a "lion." Before "Kai" successfully killed it, one hundred and eighty knights had perished by the "lion's" mouth. Thus, it is evident how formidable this monster was.
