Chapter 492 Black Cat Loli

Originally, Ryan estimated to arrive at the elven settlement at night, but after hearing the good news, Ryan sped up his journey, and with a horse to ride, he arrived at the Whispering Forest in the afternoon.

Turning his head, Ryan looked at Qianqian who seemed to have fallen asleep while hugging his waist on the horse's back and said:

"Qianqian? Qianqian? We're here."

“Hmm… ah?”

Qianqian raised her head in a daze, and when she saw Ryan's face, her ears suddenly stood up. She flipped over and jumped off the horse, then fell to the ground.

Ryan: "..."

Is this guy really Yazhi’s student?

Standing up quickly, Qianqian finally calmed down and asked, "Have we reached the Whispering Forest yet?"

"Ah."

"Then...wait for me."

As she spoke, Qianqian began to search for something on her body.

While searching, Qianqian looked at Ryan warily: "You...you guys are really not bad people, right?"

In fact, when Qianqian was on the way, she was planning to ask Ryan and Yazhi about their relationship.

But as soon as Qianqian hugged Ryan's waist on horseback, she was attracted by an inexplicable fragrance, and unknowingly stuck to Ryan's back, and then fell asleep!

When she thought of this, Qianqian blushed a little.

Could this man be a succubus? Succubus have the ability to change at will. It is said that the old king of Hedley, Luard, was killed by a succubus.

——If I were really a bad person, I wouldn’t be able to tell you.

Ryan nodded helplessly, and Qianqian took out a piece of emerald green crystal.

This is the key for outsiders to enter the elven settlement, and Ryan also has one.

However, since someone was introducing him, Ryan didn't need to pay for it himself to avoid unnecessary trouble.

As the crystal in Qianqian's hand lit up, Ryan felt a moment of illusion in his vision, and then he found himself in a familiar forest path.

"Chong-"

Before Ryan could come to his senses, the sound of a sword being drawn was heard, and at the same time, a childish shout was heard:

"Stop! Who are you? What's your name?!"

Ryan was stunned for a moment and looked towards the source of the sound.

——A beastman loli.

The little girl has a pair of cute cat ears and looks about nine or ten years old. Her delicate facial features are full of heroic spirit. Her hair and ears are black, and even her eyes are a deep black.

The black cat Loli was holding a long sword in her hand, which reminded Ryan of Yvette, and he felt inexplicably familiar with her.

"Hey, I'm asking you something!"

Seeing that Ryan didn't say anything but stared at her, Black Cat Loli asked again: "What's your name?"

"What's your name?" Ryan said with a faint smile.

"I...I won't tell you!"

"Then I won't tell you either."

"Well……"

After hearing what Ryan said, Black Cat Loli was stunned.

Without giving Black Cat Loli a chance to speak again, Ryan asked, "How old are you?"

"Nine...nine years old, what's wrong?"

"You're guarding such a dangerous place at the age of nine. Isn't your mother worried about you?"

"My mother...my mother said that I can handle things on my own now! Guarding the door shouldn't be a problem for me!"

As she spoke, Black Cat Loli proudly raised her hands on her waist and said, "Don't look at my young age. Everyone says that my future achievements may surpass my father's! In two years, even Sister Louisa won't be my opponent in swordsmanship!"

The more Ryan looked at this black cat Loli, the more he liked her. He then asked with a smile, "Who taught you swordsmanship? Your father?"

"It's Sister Yvette. My father...died in the battle against the demons ten years ago."

Ryan's smile suddenly faded: "Sorry."

"It doesn't matter. I wasn't even born when he died. I've never even seen him..."

As she spoke, Black Cat Loli's voice became softer and softer, and her ears drooped slightly.

"But my father...is a hero."

"Well, he's a hero."

Ryan nodded. Everyone in that war was a hero.

"Um...are you here to join the Four Clans Alliance? Let me show you the way!"

After talking about this, Black Cat Loli no longer asked questions like where you are from, but instead began to take the initiative to introduce Ryan.

For some reason, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this man she met for the first time.

"Okay, please."

Ryan smiled and nodded, then he extended his hand to Black Cat Loli in her puzzled eyes: "Come on, get on the horse."

"Ah? Oh..."

Black Cat Loli was stunned for a moment, then raised her little hand. Ryan held it, exerted a little force, and let Black Cat Loli sit in his arms.

After loading the black cat Loli, Ryan mounted his horse and began to ride slowly along the forest path.

Qianqian stood there blankly for a long time before she jumped up and shouted, "Hey! You forgot about me again!!"

After many years, the elf settlement has changed a lot.

Countless uncultivated lands have been turned into rows of houses, but there are few people on the streets, and there are dense fortifications outside the settlements.

"Have the demons even attacked here?"

Ryan suddenly asked.

Black Cat Loli nodded: "The secret realm created by the Eternal Tree is not enough to hide from the demons. Now the four tribes have joined forces to barely fight against the Demon King."

Black Cat Loli seemed to have a high reputation in the alliance. The guard just nodded to her and let the two pass without asking Ryan.

The few pedestrians in the settlement were all pale and thin, reminding Ryan of the poor people in the slums.

Many houses still have meat hanging at the doors that has rotted even after being dried, and it seems that it is still being eaten.

It can be seen that the elven settlement is unable to support the people of the four tribes.

Among these people, Ryan could also see quite a few purple-skinned elves. It seemed that elves from other elven settlements had also joined the alliance.

"Sir, who are you going to see?"

The black cat Loli sitting in Ryan's arms suddenly asked.

Ryan thought for a moment and went to meet Nanali and the others... To be honest, Ryan was not mentally prepared.

Although I was looking forward to reuniting with them, I couldn't bear the fact that they had gone through so much since I suddenly disappeared for ten years.

"Go... meet Futini."

Finally, Ryan spoke.

"To see Her Majesty the Queen?"

Black Cat Loli nodded: "Okay, I'll lead the way for you."

On the way, Black Cat Loli seemed to be still sulking. She didn't ask Ryan's name, let alone give her own name.

Driving on the streets of the elven settlement, Ryan suddenly noticed something and stopped his horse.

"Please wait a moment. I'll be back soon."

After saying this to Black Cat Loli, Ryan turned over and got off his horse.
