Chapter 698: Section 484: Knowledge Comes with a Price (Part 2)
When Malin returned to Rongma’s palace, the sky was already slightly bright, and the Rat-man maids had started their final cleaning tasks in the hall. Seeing Malin, they all paid their respects to their mistress.
The nearest little corner seemed slightly terrified, forcing a smile while subtly stepping back.
Seeing such fear and trepidation, Malin didn’t consider herself to be an evil person, so with a bit of confusion, but thinking it might be due to the pressure of hierarchy, she simply smiled slightly and nodded her head, then proceeded to the interior of the palace.
After carefully pushing the door open, Malin found her girls were already up, combing each other’s hair in front of that huge mirror.
Indeed, girls of varying sizes, some graceful and slim, others plump and charming—truly a delightful sight to behold.
"I’m back," Malin said with a smile as she walked behind Faye, taking the red string handed to her and tying Faye’s hair into a ponytail.
"Today, we need to negotiate with the Gnomes from the Eastern Coast," Nova said with a smile as she looked at Malin who came behind her, "Just like with Faye."
"No problem, I think the Gnomes’ request is reasonable," Malin had heard that the weather indeed had been bad on the Eastern Coast last year and this year, whether it was strong winds or heavy rains, even typhoons could make landfall—this made Malin quite confident that the continent of Africa had truly sunk.
It definitely sank, or else it was pulled into a parallel world in Subspace; anyway, it’s gone for sure, otherwise how could there be a typhoon in the Mediterranean back then.
