Chapter 843 The Cat

Chapter 843 The Cat
"Hiss~"

She tested the temperature of the pool water with her toes and found that it was still her favorite temperature, the kind that could make the skin slightly red but not scalding. The cat princess nodded with satisfaction and then walked down the pool on the smooth steps.

Phew... In this world, there is really nothing more relaxing than taking a bath~
She rubbed her butt forward and immersed most of her beautiful body in the pool water with flower petals floating on it. After being tired for a whole day, the cat princess couldn't help but close her eyes comfortably and hummed softly.

Even though he has not gotten rid of the [Bedtime Story] yet and the crisis has not been completely resolved, he has finally returned to "home" and successfully met his mother. Even if he is going to die in the end, he will not die with regrets.

What's more, looking at Leon's expression, he seems to be very confident in defeating [Wu You Zhi Shu], and he is not the kind of person who would be blindly arrogant. It seems that he should be quite sure, and at worst he should be able to escape unscathed.

Although it's a little embarrassing to say it, but with my mother's supervision and Leon's help, I really feel relieved. After fighting the King-Slaying Society for such a long time with such tense nerves, I can finally relax a little.

Well... my mother has always been so reliable. It's great to have her back. As for Leon... he's a really interesting guy.

Thinking of Leon who had seriously asked her to issue an order to change the state religion of the Kingdom of the Witches to the Cat Cult, the Cat Princess could not help but chuckle. She then raised her small and fair right foot, pressed a light pink rose petal with her toes, playfully pushed it out of the water, and then began to daydream leisurely.

From the perspective of the members of the King-Slaying Society, the God of Food, who is ruthless and unscrupulous, repeatedly thwarts the society's plans that were about to succeed, and almost kills all the descendants of the Earth, is undoubtedly the most terrifying enemy.

But when he "switched" his identity from the black cat of the King-Slaying Society to the princess of the Kingdom of the Witches, the current Aquarius director of the Cleanup Bureau, the God of Food whose notoriety spread from the world of the dead to the world of dreams and even to hell, became an extremely reliable comrade.

No matter how critical the current situation seems, as long as I see his calm expression, the haze weighing on my heart will instantly dissipate for the most part, as if as long as those dark eyes are not confused and he can still think calmly, the problem will definitely be solved.

Well...anyway, if I can successfully get through this crisis, I really have to thank him.

The shiny toes that had been scalded into a light pink by the hot water were slightly bent, and after flicking away the wet rose petals, the cat princess, who had been arguing with the excited associations for a whole day, couldn't help but stretching in the pool.

As she moved, her ten cute toes, as round as pearls, stretched out slightly like the "blooming" paws of a cat, creating delicate and elegant ripples in the pool water.

But...how should I thank him specifically?
Floating her body toward the deep end of the pool, the Cat Princess stretched out her arms, casually playing with the flower-scented water while thinking about what kind of thank you gift she should give.

Money is definitely the first thing that is ruled out. Although the salary of the Cleanup Bureau does not seem to be high, Lyon has a wife who is the queen, so it is impossible for him to be short of money.

Similarly, official positions, power, and status were of no meaning to him. He could get everything that his identity as the princess of the Witch Kingdom could give him from Queen Veronica.

As for the "special" and "extraordinary" parts, they are nothing more than abnormal objects and the like... Leon is a director of the Cleanup Bureau and may even become the next director in the future, so it is even more impossible for him to be lacking in this aspect.

So what gift should I give? I can’t just thank someone verbally after they helped me so much, right? Although Leon acted like he didn’t ask for anything in return, as if he was just helping out, I still have to… No! Wait a minute!
Thinking of this, the Cat Princess suddenly blinked, then reached out to hold the handle on the edge of the pool, and tried to stick her long legs out of the water.

"Wow"

The glistening water drops slid across the silky instep, across the faintly visible pale blue veins, across the smooth and polished edges of porcelain, past the crescent-shaped arch and slender ankle, and slid down the smooth lines of the calf, dripping lightly and charmingly into the pool. The thanks he wanted...could it be from me?
After staring at her perfect feet for a while, she suddenly felt as if someone was looking at them with her. The Cat Princess quickly retracted her legs and then tried to dive to the bottom of the pool, submerging everything below her nose under the water. Only then did she feel a little better.

After hiding her body and avoiding the non-existent gaze, the Cat Princess blew bubbles in the water in annoyance, recalling the conversation she overheard from the Shaman President and the Guard Captain during their secret meeting.

"I have a hunch that his target is actually Her Highness Caitlin!"

"Based on his past actions and character, I feel that he may have set his eyes on the beauty of Her Highness Catelyn!"

"If he was just trying to gain benefits, there is no need for him to do these things. He probably has some special hobbies for the identity of 'Princess'!"

These words...can't all be true?

Thinking of the resolute look on the shaman society's president's face when he said these words, Princess Cat Cat couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Although Leon did not show any special habits when I tried it later, proving that these were probably just their groundless guesses, but I was just a "fake" princess at that time, and now I have regained my identity as a princess!
After imagining the possible scenarios, Princess Cat couldn't help but feel a little at a loss for a moment. She felt that taking a bath was not as comfortable as before.

What if… What if Leon really has some special fetish for the “Princess” and has improper thoughts about me, should I reject him sternly or reluctantly…

Oh no, I can't agree to this! No! He's a married man!
But…but I owe him such a big favor. Not only my life, but even my mother's life was saved by him. If I refuse and he insists on asking for it back, then…

"Your Highness?"

Just as the Cat Princess was hiding in the pool, transforming into a worried mermaid, spitting bubbles onto the water surface, a maid's gentle voice suddenly came from outside the bathing pool.

"Your Highness? Are you here?"

"I'm here!"

After hurriedly getting out of the pool and shaking off her wet hair, the Cat Princess stood up and sat by the pool, pulling a towel to cover her body, and then asked loudly:
"what happened?"

"Your Highness, Prince Leon is looking for you."

The maid outside the bath reported cautiously:

"I told you that you were... that it was not convenient for you, but he insisted that he had something important to do. Do you think I should continue to refuse him, or..."
