The Strange Cat from Fuuto

"It's better than staying here." Aiqi, who was holding the arm of the thief, was now in the appearance of a delicate young girl. With the severe lack of coins in her body, even the appearance of a greedy person could not be maintained for long.

"it is good!"

The humanoid Thief Horn obediently followed Love Fin out of the abandoned bar. After the two figures disappeared, the Lizard's eyes gleamed with a strange light as it secretly glanced at the Shovel.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"It's nothing, I just feel it's a bit of a pity that such immense power was wasted on that fool!"

"Humph!"

...........

Aifin, who hadn't gone far from the abandoned bar with Thief Horn, suddenly turned around and saw a tiny canned octopus hovering in the air.

"Damn it, those canned mechanical goods from the Hongshang Foundation! Thief Horn, get rid of them!"

Realizing that the canned octopus might be Miku's outreach to find him, Ai Fins eagerly spoke to Daojiao. Daojiao raised his arm, and the black energy on his body transformed into the form of a greedy being, grasping the canned octopus in the air from afar.

"boom!"

Like a canned octopus inside a hydraulic press, its body twisted and deformed before finally exploding with a muffled thud.

"Come on!"

After seeing the canned octopus burst, Aifin hurriedly pulled Daojiao towards the outskirts of the city. There was a storage point there, secretly set up by Miku after returning to Fengdu, specifically for such emergencies.

After a safe journey, the two arrived at an old, locked warehouse. Just as Aiqi unlocked the lock, a childish voice rang out.

"It was really not easy to find you guys!"

Miku, now transformed, sat on a rock, holding a blue octopus-shaped can in her left hand.

"You bastard!"

Aifin, having dropped the lock from his hand, didn't even bother to open the door before shouting angrily at Miku: "You actually want to turn us greedy people into livestock? What the hell do you want, you bastard?"

"What do you want to do?"

Miku, clapping his hands, stood still and said, "I just did it out of interest, I didn't think too much about it!" Aifin, seeing the mockery in the other's bloodshot eyes, slowly opened the door and gritted his teeth, saying, "You must be plotting something, otherwise you wouldn't have been watching us so early!"

"What you think is your freedom; I'm just simply indulging my personal interests!"

"That pervert has a twisted sense of humor, let's take care of him with the stolen horn!"

With a cold voice, Aiqi commanded Daojiao, who slapped his thick armor on his arms and charged at Miku like a mad rhinoceros.

"I already told you this won't work for me!"

Miku easily dodged the thief's charge, but after the thief stopped, he began to pound his chest. Visible shockwaves spread out, and Miku felt as if he were wearing heavy shackles, unable to move.

"So this is the container that Maki was talking about. It's quite capable!"

Miku tried to break free from the gravitational pull exerted on him by the thief's horn with all his might, but to no avail.

"Sigh, I guess I'll have to use Extreme!"

With a sigh, Miku unleashed the power of Extremme, his entire body covered in evenly distributed cracks. The moment the cracks shattered, the drastically changed Miku broke free from the gravitational restraints imposed by the thief.

"Without a vessel capable of full resurrection, it seems that's all he can do. And it looks like this idiot can't control the power of the Core Medal!"

"Let's get this sorted out quickly."

Miku raised his right hand and condensed a golden energy blast, like raising a sun.

Each dopant capable of firing energy projectiles has its own properties; Wakana's property is gravity, while Miku's is simply light and heat.

"it's over!"

Miku, who spoke indifferently, threw the energy blast that looked like the sun at the thief.

The next moment, the sun fell!

Chapter Thirty-Nine: You merge, I'll unleash my three-stage transformation!

Like a giant fireball that had fallen from the sun to earth, leaving wisps of fire in the air while containing boundless light and heat, it erupted before the thief.

“Buzz.…”

An indescribable wave spread through the air; there was no deafening sound, only endless bursts of fire.

"Ah...it's so hot!"

"I feel so bad, Aifin, I feel so bad!"

As the horn thief's wails continued, endless light and heat erupted once more, creating waves of heat.

"Thief of the horn!"

Seeing this scene, Ai-Chi couldn't help but shout out loud. It goes without saying how deep their feelings for each other were.

Seeing the blurry figure of the thief writhing in the blazing firelight, Aifin cast a resentful glance at Miku.

"Heh!" Noticing Aifin's resentful gaze, Miku sneered disdainfully, her golden-red eyes fixed on Aifin. "Your turn next!"

"Although we used to have a good working relationship, now I have no choice but to kill you!"

You'll regret this!

The cold-spoken Love Fin rushed into the old warehouse, and within seconds, the sound of coins clattering together could be heard.

"Could this woman be planning to..."

A torrent of coins rushed out of the warehouse, with two core coins, glowing with a purple luster, standing out prominently among them.

The torrent of coins flying through the air bypassed Miku and plunged straight into the still unwritten flames.

"Thief Horn, give me everything you have!"

"Fine, if Lovefin wants it, I'll give you everything I have, whether it's the Core Medal or the Cell Medal, take everything I have!"

"What a foolish child," Aiqi's voice sounded ethereal at this moment, "Clearly a greedy person, yet without any desires!"

"But that's exactly what I like about you, Thief Horn!"

As soon as Lovefin stopped speaking, a torrent of cellular coins rushed towards the Thief Horn, which was spreading its arms and beginning to disintegrate itself.

"But this time, I'll grant your wish, Horn Thief!"

I like you!

The consciousness residing in the Core Medal manipulated a massive torrent of medallions to rapidly merge into the Thief Horn's body, with the Core Medal merging along with it.

At this moment, the thief with sixteen core coins inside his body let out a sorrowful roar, feeling the consciousness of the Lovefin within him slowly fading away.

"Love Fins!"

A blood-curdling, grief-stricken roar erupted, and the immense power surging from Daojiao's body instantly overwhelmed the raging flames around him.

"Miku!"

For the first time, a look of madness appeared in the eyes of this greedy man who had never understood what desire was.

"I want you to die!"

The bandit, with a purple cloak falling behind him, was filled with a violent killing intent and surging hatred.

At this moment, the greedy man before Miku finally had his own desires, desires called revenge and salvation.

With its feet firmly planted on the ground, the thief bent down and slammed its fist into the earth. A powerful, chaotic wave of gravity shattered the ground, and a crack-like fissure shot towards Miku.

"I never expected you to look at me like that, Thief Horn!"

Ignoring the fissure in the ground right in front of him, Miku said, "Not bad eyesight!"

After disappearing from Daojiao's sight in a flash, several Miku figures appeared in front of Daojiao and launched an attack on him.

Clenching his teeth to withstand Miku's attack, Daojiao let out an elephant's roar, raised his right leg and stomped down hard, creating ripples of gravity in the air.

"This guy seems to be really desperate!"

Miku dodged the gravity wave released by the opponent by retreating rapidly, and with a flick of his arms, the sharp blades hidden in his armor popped out.

"Clang..."

The claws on both arms rubbed against each other, producing a crisp sound and sparks.

"However, even if you combine your powers, I can still defeat you!"

Miku, whose golden-red eyes gleamed with a hint of light, stomped his right leg on the ground and vanished from his spot.

When it reappeared, it was already behind Thief Horn, its claws raised high and then swiftly brought down. Six hideous claw marks were left on Thief Horn's body, and Cell Coins flowed out from the claw marks and fell to the ground.

"asshole!"

Just as the thief with a roar turned around, he was met with another slash from Miku.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

The sound of claws ringing out rang out continuously. In an instant, Miku, who had left dozens of wounds on Thief Horn's body, jumped back and shot a dazzling golden ball the size of an egg at Thief Horn.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

A series of explosions rang out. Apart from some charred marks, the thief horn that had swallowed the Miku energy bomb had only claw marks left on its body, and these claw marks were rapidly healing.

"This guy is too meaty, I can't cut him!"

Miku, who was hesitating about whether to transform into Extrem's second form, suddenly narrowed his eyes. "Is this guy unable to control the power within him and starting to go berserk?"

The horn, crackling with electricity, let out a painful roar, its body swelling as the core coin inside it began to rampage.

"Love Fins!"

The thief horn, which was calling out for love fins in its final moments, suddenly exploded, scattering countless core units and revealing the core coins within.

A purple electric spark flickered between the sixteen core coins, as if they were trying to control their rampaging power.

"Ding, ding, ding..."

The sound of the coins vibrating continued to emanate. Among the sixteen core coins, the Bug-type and Feline-type core coins were repelled in an instant and disappeared from Miku's sight. Miku had no intention of chasing after the missing core coins. It was obvious to anyone that fourteen core coins or two core coins were more valuable.

After expelling two Core Medals, the purple lightning took control of the remaining Core Medals, making its movements much more relaxed.

A burst of light, a mixture of silver-gray and purple, erupted, freezing the scattered cellular coins in mid-air.
