They were all made from the same mold.
She complained about it to Phyllis.
Phyllis's answer left Paddo puzzled.
"After all, their character designs are almost identical."
Phyllis's expression at that moment was meaningful, but Pado couldn't understand it.
"Yay! Mom is the best!"
Safalia was so happy that she jumped off the fence and ran into Paddo's arms, rubbing her little face against her.
Pado sighed resignedly.
Ultimately, what made her decide was her confidence in Phyllis's superhuman physical abilities.
If any unexpected situation arises, I can simply unleash my full power and take down all the enemies blocking my way.
I guarantee that not a single hair on my little kitten will be missing!
PS:
Volume 1: Chapter 892 The Cat-Eye Sisters.
The year is 3966 in the Guangli calendar, at the end of the tenth month.
The month of picking up threads is the month of romance and Titan.
With the autumn harvest complete, this month is a time for people to reflect on the joys and sorrows of the past year.
Meneta gathers everything here, weaving it into golden threads of memory.
This is a month for spending time with family and enjoying love and beauty.
People with free time would weave cloth at home, and festivals related to textiles would be held there.
Although the industrial boom of the Caesar Empire did not sweep across the entire continent, its fame and creations spread far and wide along with the footsteps of wandering poets, caravans, and adventurers.
The splendor and magnificence of the empire captivated countless hearts.
Modern industrial products that circulated from the empire were extremely popular and sought after.
The inexpensive and bright 'Cephale Light', an alchemical lamp that can automatically absorb 'solar energy', made the city-state's inhabitants, who used oil lamps to grope in the dark, exclaim that it was a miracle.
Inventions from the Empire could fetch exorbitant prices in any city-state, and in the barter-based city of Pharos, they became the most sought-after and highly valuable items for exchange.
"Truly a novelty of the Empire, it can fetch so much money."
Her silver-white hair fluttered like frost and snow, her azure cat eyes were clear as stars, and the cat ears peeking out from under the modified hood trembled slightly. Her light black clothes outlined her breathtakingly slender waist.
Her buttocks were round and firm, and her legs were long and straight.
A slight smile played on the corners of the girl's lips as she carried a bulging, unassuming gray cloth bag.
No one would have guessed that it was filled with high-purity Liyang coins.
"It's completely crowded in front, Mom, can you hold this for me for a bit? I'm going to go check it out!"
Cephalia shoved the heavy bag into the arms of the person next to her without a word, her voice clear and melodious.
But the content will leave anyone who hears it astonished.
The girl called "Mom" by the black cat-eared girl is actually a beautiful and youthful-looking young woman.
The girl, who also had brown cat ears and a cat tail, frantically tried to catch the money pouch that was about to slip away.
"Hey! Fei'er! Let's get the goods settled before we watch the show, okay?"
Judging from their cat ears and tails, the two are undoubtedly related by blood, but their overly young, pretty, and even cute appearances make them seem like mother and daughter.
They're more like sisters.
Judging from her temperament and appearance, the cat-eared girl called "Mom" seems more like a younger sister who needs to be taken care of, with her slightly timid and constantly wary demeanor.
If we're talking about contrast, it would be the gentle older sister and the lively younger sister.
"Oh, it's okay, don't worry."
The gray-haired, cat-eared girl waved her hand casually, her figure flowing nimbly through the gaps in the crowd like a liquid cat, displaying terrifying flexibility.
The gray-haired, cat-eared girl easily reached the front, and looking at the guards spreading out papers, she felt bored.
"What? It's just a wanted poster."
At the end of the month, several lampposts were lost from the temple, three bags of sacred offerings were stolen, and several boxes of gold and silver jewelry were lost.
Losing valuable items, and also desecrating sacred objects and disrupting order, is a grave sin.
An investigation revealed that the suspects were twin sisters who were habitual thieves of cat's eye jewelry.
These two women are cunning and treacherous; all citizens of my city must be on high alert.
A reward of five thousand will be given to anyone who provides valid clues.
A reward of ten thousand coins will be given to whoever captures and delivers the captive to the temple.
"Kefal, it's those cat-eyed sisters again! How dare they attack the temple?"
"Ha! As expected, those priests in the temple are no good!"
"Well done! Steal every last penny from those bastards' bellies!"
"Is no one going to try their luck? Even a small clue could be worth five thousand gold coins! Not five thousand liheng coins!"
"Try your luck? Dude, are you out of your mind? Those are the Cat-Eyed Twin Sisters!"
"Don't even mention a mere five thousand gold pieces. Three months ago, the old king of Mysteries offered a reward of hundreds of thousands of gold pieces. Do you see anyone who could find even a single cat hair?"
"They ransacked the mansions of eight noble families in Mystères, and even the royal treasury. I heard that all the valuables in those mansions were emptied, and half of the royal treasury disappeared. What are the temples compared to that?"
"Hey, I heard that all those treasures and valuables have been distributed to ordinary people. Is that true?"
“It’s absolutely true. A friend of my cousin lives right by the Valley of Tears. He almost froze and starved to death last winter, and only survived because of the money and food scattered by the cat’s eye!”
"As expected of the leader of the Three Hundred Thieves of Dolores."
Sefaria's fluffy cat ears twitched as he deftly caught every word of discussion, and he gave a slight smirk.
She quietly slipped out of the crowd and returned to Pado's side.
"What's all this commotion over there? What happened?"
Pado, who was guarding the two bags of high-purity Liheng coins, couldn't help but ask curiously when she saw her daughter return.
"It's just posting a bounty."
"what?"
Pado was puzzled. What was so interesting about the wanted poster? Was it some kind of heinous criminal?
"Whose bounty is this? It's attracting so many people to read it!"
"They're the Cat's Eye twins."
Sefaria grinned and, like a best friend, linked her arm with Paddo's, nuzzling her affectionately, her tone teasing.
"..."
Pado remained silent, her eyes narrowed to a dead fish-like state, her lips drooping into an inverted triangle, her face utterly devoid of any zest for life.
Cat began to ponder over the past ten years, wondering exactly when the rumor of them becoming sisters began.
It seems to have started when Sefaria was thirteen?
Still fourteen years old?
Pado doesn't remember.
She has lived in Onphalos for a full eighteen years.
I was living quite comfortably and with plenty of freedom in Dolores.
But this was the Middle Ages after all. On that month of strife, Dolores was caught in the crossfire of war, and the noble lords took the opportunity to plunder the land and even enacted a ban on fraud, driving the poor to their deaths.
With starvation looming everywhere, Pado's soft-hearted nature resurfaced.
With nine-year-old Fei'er constantly urging her on, "Mommy! Let's go scavenge for things from the houses of those warring kings! They're the richest!"
Pado hesitated for a moment, then decided it wasn't entirely impossible.
So the mother and daughter actually went to the enemy country's royal family to buy goods, and returned to Dolos to distribute them to the poor people who could not survive due to the war.
This marks the first time the nickname "Cat's Eye Twins" has gained widespread fame.
They even served as role models.
Several civilian thieves traveled to distant lands, using their talents and schemes to swindle people and steal their goods.
In total, three hundred men, women, and children made a name for themselves and were known as the Three Hundred Robbers of Dolores.
Although he was a thief in reality, he had the demeanor of a hero, and the world applauded him.
Paddo wasn't proud of it; she just didn't want to see so many people die.
As for the leader of the 300, Dolores?
Please.
She doesn't even know her!
I don't recognize any of them!
That's because someone gave it that title.
However, since Sefaria liked it, she didn't object.
After that, Paddo left Dolores with Sefaria.
Cats are cowards.
Even with Phyllis's exceptional physical abilities, Pado didn't believe she could effectively protect her daughter during the war.
For her daughter's safety, Paddy made the resolute decision to move!
She had heard of Caesar's illustrious reputation, the well-established laws within the empire's borders, and the people's peaceful and prosperous lives.
So, Paddo took Sefaria to settle in the Empire.
She even considered sending Sefaria to the Empire's highest academy, the Divine Tree Academy.
How can children not go to school?
Pado had conducted a survey at the Divine Enlightenment Tree Garden beforehand, and planned to send her daughter to school after confirming that it was safe.
This investigation, however, gave Pado quite a fright.
The research project inside the Divine Tree Garden seems a bit like something from Earth.
Although she couldn't understand the content, the names were familiar!
This discovery surprised and unsettled the cat. After conducting some investigation, the cat came to a conclusion.
There are Earth transmigrators within the Empire!
Still a super big shot!
Unlike her, an ordinary mortal who can neither sing nor understand engineering, that time traveler is the protagonist template, capable of sparking an industrial revolution in ancient times!
Pado felt a little numb.
As the saying goes, two tigers cannot share one mountain, let alone a cowardly cat like her.
As always, the cat was no exception this time. After discovering that the situation was beyond expectations, it immediately chose to open the app.
Cat packed up her bedding and took Fei'er Run to a small border town of the empire.
Prepare to seize the empire at the slightest sign of trouble.
They lived a comfortable life for a few years.
The mother and daughter ran a small shop.
One person buys the goods, the other sells them—well, sales.
But as Saifei grows up day by day, Pado's headache index also increases sharply.
This child did resemble her a lot when she was little—clever yet adorably timid—but as she grew older, her bold and decisive personality became more like her biological mother, Phyllis.
