I have Nine Lives

Chapter 78: Banquet and familiarization

The banquet started rather quickly as they easily got a long table from their storage room and put it in the middle of the capital where everyone was invited to the party!

There was no such thing as table manners or any manners to speak off in the lion tribe, they all brought whatever foods they wanted to the banquet eating how much they wanted from the table, and then burped and left.

Manitola felt rather disgusted at the way they ate, while the Sparron continent was weak they were way more advanced compared to them, they had table manners and customs they had to respect but she wasn't going to deny the free food, she was rather hungry after swimming for such a long time in cold waters.

Felix was stuffing his face the moment he saw meat being put on the table while Siracha had left to rest at his house.

Lindo was eating with him as they entered a contest which Felix easily won, Lindo groaned at his bloated stomach which couldn't endure even one more piece of meat as he passed out.

Even Landers came to this banquet as he was luckily in the tribe when they returned, he was sitting near Lindo and Felix and he was asking Felix about his experiences in this intercontinental battle.

Felix shared as much as he could with Landers and afterward decided he was a bit tired and he could use some sleep, even though his body was very strong and sleep was optional at this point, it would still make his weary mind a little bit more rested, that and his body could absorb all of the experiences he had got this time better if he let it rest.

Manitola suddenly appeared in front of him as she asked:

"Where am I going to live?"

This was a little problem as he looked at the downed Lindo, he originally wanted to ask Lindo to house her as his house was rather big and she didn't have any money to live at the inn but he guessed he could foot the bill for her this time, actually as he thought about it he shouldn't even pay the bill anymore, after all, he had done so many things for the tribe.

He sighed as he would talk with Siracha about it later, maybe he could get the tribe to pay for his expenses, at this point he did have a few silver bones and he knew that he would get rewarded accordingly for this intercontinental battle, but he felt that he deserved some of the preferential treatment.

He wasn't even sure why he felt like that, maybe it was because he saw some of this treatment in Wu Xiao's memories and subconsciously wanted to be treated the same way? Cats were innately quite vane.

He decided to take Manitola to his inn as it was the most comfortable one he found during his initial search for good homes.

He waved his paw at her as he started to walk towards the direction of the inn and she easily followed him as she asked:

"So what do you like to do?"

"I like to train."

"Anything else?"

"Not really, I guess I like to sleep and eat?"

"Aren't you really boring?"

Felix nodded from a viewers standpoint he was a really boring person but that was who he was, he was content with his life.

"If I'm so boring what do you like doing miss Manitola?"

"Well I like dancing, singing, and painting, I'm also a great swimmer from what you saw and I also enjoy making tea."

Felix didn't know what half of the things she said were, singing dancing, and painting weren't things that could be found easily on the Tarot continent as it was a desert of culture.

Felix shook his head as he didn't understand her, he didn't really found tea to be pleasing to the taste as it was just boiled herbs but who knew what was going through the fox princess's mind?

Seeing his weird looks made Manitola shook her head, she knew that the Tarot continent was in the middle ranges of strength because it only pursued strength and they could have been higher ranked if it wasn't for the existence of the Ape tribe who lived on the Haron continent.

As they chatted they finally reached Felix's inn where he paid the needed amount before letting the woman at the desk escort Manitola to her room, he then went to his own room and crashed directly into the bed so he could sleep for some time.

In his sleep nothing happened, it was a dreamless sleep, he didn't enter his mindscape either as he just rested.

He woke up late in the morning and ate breakfast as he cleaned himself using his tongue and paws before he left the inn, Manitola had already left the inn as she woke up earlier than him and went to find Lindo.

It was quite strange considering that Felix was a God's chosen just like her and they would have more in common.

Felix found the two of them talking at his house and he invited himself in.

The moment Felix entered all the chatter died down, Lindo came forward and invited him to sit with them as they were just getting acquainted with each other.

They were just talking about their abilities and other things that they would have to watch out for in the future on the battlefield to maximize their cooperation.

Felix sat on the chair as he looked at Maritola and Lindo who stood near each other.

"Ok so as I was saying I have quite a few techniques and..."

After Lindo finished explaining it was Maritola's turn, not much was known about her abilities besides her charm field.

"Well besides my obvious charm field that you all should have seen I have quite the high amount of combat capabilities... it's just that my body is rather weak and I cannot really exhibit many of them in normal circumstances, that's why I have the charm field in the first place."

She started to explain a little bit about her and the fox's tribe abilities, how their intelligence could be considered at the top of the Sparron continent, and their battle power as well, they were the justice defendants of the continent's citizens and also their leader.

From her information, Felix got to know more about her and her tribe and from what he knew about the other tribes just interacting with their younger generation alone made him give the verdict that the Sparron continent was 100% lost!
