Mystery: Big Alarm Clock Ghroth Path

Chapter 5 The Cat Became an Apprentice

The hotel was some distance from Iron Cross Street, and Roger walked for about twenty minutes to arrive.

During this time, the tabby kitten stayed quietly on his shoulder, without making any noise or noise, and responded to the strange looks from passers-by with a good-natured look.

Roger, dressed as a gentleman, paired with a dirty little stray cat is a very eye-catching situation no matter how you look at it.

"The 'Conspicuous Bag' potion has been digested a little bit more..."

Roger quietly felt the changes within himself, pushed open the door of the hotel, and then, while the receptionist at the front desk was not paying attention, quickly went up to the second floor and returned to his guest room.

Most hotels in Tingen City do not allow animals to be accommodated. Although he needs to act conspicuously, this is different from deliberate provocation.

"Click."

Closing the door, Roger breathed a sigh of relief.

He picked up the kitten, who was looking around, and took it to the bathroom, where he gave it a good bath, dried it with a towel, and laid it by the fireplace to dry its fur.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Roger went downstairs to the hotel restaurant and ordered half a garlic bread, a bowl of vegetable soup, a few slices of bacon and a bottle of fresh milk, which he brought back to his room on a tray.

He poured the milk to the kitten and watched it eat it with relish. He finally relaxed and ate his lunch while flipping through the notes he had brought out from the Abraham family residence.

"The 'Apprentice' potion formula... after taking it, one can freely pass through solid media such as walls and locked doors, leveraging a connection with the spirit world."

As a large family that has completely mastered a divine path, the Abraham family's research on "apprentices" is extremely extensive. There are many details that Roger has never known, and he is dazzled for a while.

The notes even contain a lot of discussion on the symbolism and essence of the "door" path, as well as explanations of the "acting method", which are a treasure trove of knowledge that wild Beyonders cannot access.

"If it weren't for Mr. Men, who prevented his descendants from producing demigods, the Abraham family would have long since grown into a powerful family on par with the Tudor family."

Roger felt a little emotional, but when he thought that the power that controlled the three Gou families was somewhat abnormal, he stopped worrying about it.

Wiping his mouth, Roger took out the "apprentice" potion ingredients and beaker that he had brought from his family in advance from his briefcase, and began to heat them with the oil lamp provided by the inn.

He added the auxiliary materials into the beaker in proportion, and then took out the Sequence 9 "Apprentice" Beyonder characteristic that he had previously separated from his body and added it in.

The potion quickly stabilized and he moved the beaker away from the oil lamp, poured out the potion, and then made an enticing sound to the tabby cat who had just licked the milk and was still unsatisfied.

The cat had been hungry for too long, and after finally having a meal, it still felt hungry. Seeing Roger gave it a ball of jelly-like substance with a strong gelatinous texture, it ate it in two bites without thinking.

"belch……"

Roger clearly heard the cat lying on the ground in front of him, squinting its eyes and looking contented, burp.

He didn't dare to take it lightly and sat down to observe.

In the original book, when Susie ate the "audience" potion, she already weighed as much as a large dog, but the tabby cat is still too small. God knows whether it will show any symptoms of losing control and turn into a monster.

Sure enough, the tabby cat that was lying comfortably on the ground suddenly let out a strange cry and turned over and stood up.

It arched its back as if frightened, its hair stood on end, and began to make sharp breathing sounds towards the corner of the wall.

Roger hurried forward to comfort the cat, but he didn't expect the tabby cat to suddenly sprint into the wall and disappear without a trace.

"'Apprentice's' wall-walking?"

Roger was stunned, and the next moment he heard a woman's scream, stomping feet and the sound of something heavy falling from the next room.

Some people pressed the doorbell to call the front desk while cursing.

"Damn it, this is a big deal."

If any extraordinary animal-related incidents occurred in the downtown area, it would most likely alert the Nighthawks to send out a search, and he would definitely be in trouble.

Although he wanted to have further contact with Klein, he didn't want him to get to know him again in this way.

Thinking of this, Roger hurriedly opened the door and ran towards the room where the terrified screams were coming from, then knocked on the door. A disheveled young woman with a red face came over to open the door. Roger looked over her shoulder and saw a shirtless, bloated middle-aged man holding a book and chasing a tabby cat that was running around.

"you are?"

The lady spoke in confusion, and Roger lied that he was a front desk staff, bent slightly, rushed in and grabbed the tabby cat.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man stopped chasing.

He looked at Roger angrily, obviously resenting the cat for ruining his good fortune.

"I'm going to complain to the Tingen City Hotel Management Association! Revoke your license!"

The other person's neck turned red and he roared loudly.

When he was about to curse a few more times, he suddenly felt his neck tighten.

The next moment, a huge force dragged him backwards.

The middle-aged man looked up and saw that it was the young woman with him. Although the latter showed off her beautiful curves, she burst out with strength that was not commensurate with her body shape in a short period of time.

At the same time, her red eyes seemed to contain uncontrollable impatience and impulsiveness.

The man was about to speak, but he also felt a blankness in his mind and a blind eagerness rising up.

Without thinking, he grabbed the woman and the two of them rolled on the floor.

Roger wrapped the tabby cat, which had calmed down somewhat, in his clothes, bowed politely, closed the door, and walked towards his room.

Unexpectedly, I bumped into the receptionist on the road, who was rushing over with some oil stains still on the corners of her mouth.

The other person looked at him suspiciously: "Were you the one who rang the doorbell just now?"

"No, it seems that the gentleman and lady next door had some kind of fight. I went over to take a look, and they are all fine now."

Roger pointed his thumb at the room behind him where the indescribable sound was coming from and smiled.

The lady at the front desk blushed, nodded awkwardly, and left the second floor without asking any more questions.

Roger finally breathed a sigh of relief. He returned to the room and locked the door.

"I didn't expect this 'shit stirrer' ability could be used like this."

Roger, who used his own active ability for the first time, gained some new insights. He originally thought that he could only make people lose control of their emotions, but he did not realize that "impatience" and "impulsiveness" are also manifestations of losing control of emotions.

"Fortunately, this kitten didn't mutate."

The kitten has calmed down now.

Compared to its previous confusion, its eyes were now clearer as it looked around the room and Roger in front of it.

"When I was little, my parents nicknamed me 'Bandit,' which means bandit in Loenese slang.

"You inherited my extraordinary characteristics and put on a bandit-like farce. Let's call you this. From now on, we'll be partners."

Roger knew that the cat had already developed a preliminary sense of self-awareness like Susie, so he gently stroked its back and extended his right hand towards it.

Bandit also suddenly stopped his activities after hearing this.

It sat down, thought for a moment, and actually stretched out its right paw and lightly touched Roger's right hand.

　There will be another update later.
