The Strange Cat from Fuuto

The mage, wearing a coat and carrying a helmet, walked out of the Shadow Hall.

Meanwhile, in the Torii Bando Ward, inside Serena's mansion.

"I said, can you please give me some normal food?"

Looking at the boiled peas in the plate, Miku looked very distressed: "I'm not a chicken. If I eat beans all day long, I'll become malnourished!"

"I'm on a diet, so this is all I'll be eating for three meals a day!"

Serena, expressionless, ate the peas on her plate and looked up at Miku, saying, "If you don't like it, you can eat outside and come back, or do you want me to go buy you some cat food?"

"Forget it, I'm tired of cat food. I'll just go out and hunt some wild food myself!"

"You mean begging on the street, trying to charm passersby? Don't tell anyone you live in my house!" Serena said slowly, wiping her mouth. "I can't bear that embarrassment!"

"Heh, do you think I'm some kind of stray cat on the street?" Miku raised an eyebrow and said with a hint of smugness, "How could I possibly have fallen to such a state, considering I come from a wealthy family?"

Miku, with a sidelong glance, jumped off the table and climbed onto Iggy's back: "Let's go, let's go find something to eat!"

"Ow!"

With an excited howl, Ichi, carrying Miku, slammed spectacularly into the door.

"Open the door, you idiot!"

"Awooo, awooo, awooo..."

Seeing the cat and dog start swearing at each other, Serena walked over.

A few seconds later, the door to the house opened, and Miku and Iggy were kicked out. Just as Miku was about to turn around and argue, a gust of wind blew past him.

"Boom!"

The door was slammed shut by Serena.

"Older women always have so many demands. I wish you menopause for the rest of your life!"

Miku muttered to himself as he straddled Iggy's back, and with Iggy carrying him, they headed towards Torii-zaka city.

......

"Hey, Misa-chan, can I borrow some ghouls?"

With a smirk and a flippant smile, the Guremlin moved closer to Medusa. Medusa frowned and glanced at him, saying, "Don't call me that, and what do you need a ghoul for?"

"I just discovered a very interesting guy who possesses magic, but it's different from the [Door]. I'm a bit curious and plan to investigate him!"

"It's best not to do anything reckless!"

Medusa took out several magic stones that could produce ghouls from her pocket and handed them to him under the expectant gaze of the Golemlins.

"Don't worry, there won't be any other trouble!"

After giving Medusa an OK sign, Guremlin turned and left.

"I'd like to see what you're up to." Medusa, with her arms around Iggy, muttered to herself as she looked in the direction the Guremlin had left, and strode after them.

Torii-zaka, a restaurant.

"Here's your hot dog, sir!"

A beautiful and smiling waitress placed the tray on the young man's table. The young man had short, light blond hair and handsome features with a mysterious sunny disposition. His windbreaker was not zipped up, but rather left open, revealing a shirt with a lion head pattern printed on it.

Thank you!

The young man rubbed his hands together as he looked at the plate of hot dogs in front of him, a satisfied smile spreading across his face.

"Would you like ketchup or salad dressing?" The attentive waiter, who was handing over the sauces, looked on in astonishment as the young man pulled mayonnaise out of his clothes.

"I don't need either of them, this is enough!"

"Ah..." The dumbfounded waiter forced a smile and said, "Then please enjoy your meal."

Just as the young man, whose hot dog was piled high with mayonnaise, was about to enjoy his lunch, several strange stones were thrown in front of him.

What is this thing?

The young man, who had curiously picked up a stone, suddenly changed his expression. The stone in his hand suddenly swelled up and became heavier and heavier.

"I rely on!"

The young man who threw the stone was astonished to find that it rapidly swelled to the size of a washbasin after landing, resembling a cyst.

From the cyst-like rocks, hands and feet stretched out, and one after another, strange figures with gray-black bodies and ferocious faces crawled up from the ground.

"Waaah..."

A sound like a ghost's wail came from its mouth, and its body stiffened as it approached the young man.

The young man, whose face was still showing shock, instantly revealed an expression of wild joy.

"As expected, danger and opportunity go hand in hand. When you're hungry, food just happens to come to you!"

The surrounding guests reacted in the exact opposite way, screaming and retreating in panic.

"ah...."

The screams carried far, and Miku, riding Iggy through the streets, twitched his ears and looked toward the source of the screams.

"Hey, this is just like a pillow coming right when I'm sleepy!"

Miku, his tail wagging excitedly, curled his lips into a sinister smile: "You're unlucky to have run into me. I was just about to test the new ring's reaction to the Phantom!"

Miku pinched Iggy's nape, causing him to turn into the bushes near the park. A flash of light appeared in the bushes, and Miku in his wild form emerged.

Passersby were surprised when Miku suddenly appeared, but Miku, ignoring their stares, swept its tail from its waist.

"Fenrisulfr, Start!"

A huge magic circle with a ferocious wolf head appeared out of thin air. Iggy, who had suddenly grown larger, passed through the grass and trampled the grass to pieces.

"Let's go!"

Miku, who had just climbed onto the dog, directed Iggy to run toward the direction from which the screams were coming from.

In the restaurant's outdoor area, the young man anxiously rummaged through his travel bag as the ghouls closed in on him.

"Huh? That's strange, where did it go?"

The young man, who was rummaging through his travel bag, suddenly felt a chill rise from his back. He looked up and saw the ghoul's spear thrusting down at him.

"Oops!"

The young man, whose expression changed drastically, didn't have time to search further. He rolled on the ground and narrowly dodged the thrusting spear.

"Let me see what makes you different!"

Although Guremlin, standing on the roof of the restaurant, wore a smile, his eyes revealed an extremely cold chill.

"Whoosh..."

A sharp whooshing sound rang out, and a huge figure descended from the sky.

Iggy stomped down on the ghoul without mercy, but the outdoor area of ​​the restaurant was also almost destroyed.

"You've forgotten about that!"

Miku sighed and slid off Iggy's back. After smashing a struggling ghoul with his tail, Miku patted Iggy and said, "Go play somewhere else for a while."

"Awoo!"

Nodding, Iggy ran off to the other side. Miku's original intention was to prevent Iggy from causing even greater damage to the restaurant, but unexpectedly, his actions turned the place into complete ruins.

"Ruined!"

Miku slapped the ghoul on the head and then slammed his elbow backward, sending the ghoul that was trying to sneak up on him flying.

"What a miscalculation!"

Miku, who had dodged the attack, found himself standing where a long staff with snakes attached to it had appeared.

"Why is this woman here?"

Miku turned to look at Medusa, who had suddenly appeared, and felt a toothache.

"Isn't this like stirring up a hornet's nest?!" Miku scratched the back of his head and heard Medusa grit her teeth and say, "Damn magician, I've finally run into you again!"

"Hey, Medusa, your clothes are pretty white..."

"No, the clothes are quite big..."

"It's still not right!"

Miku, hands on her hips, shrugged and said, "Never mind, you look pretty today anyway."

"Smooth-talking!"

Medusa's eyes flashed with purple light, and a hideous phantom appeared on her body.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't be in such a hurry!" Miku took out the ring and put it on the middle finger of her right hand, then quickly turned the wheel at her waist to the right.

"Let me see what good stuff we can find!"

"Steal Start!"

A magic circle was activated from Miku's hand, and at that moment, the young man beside him stared blankly at Miku.

"Don't blame me!"

A light yellow magic circle with a "taking something out of a bag" pattern landed on Medusa, and at the same time, a strange phantom appeared on her body. Before she turned into a monster, Medusa felt a chill.

Miku produced a small black cloth scrap with lace patterns in his hand. "You're really bold!"

Miku, who was pinching Medusa's breasts with her fingers, noticed the young man beside her and casually tossed him what she was holding: "Here you go!"

"Hey, hey, hey, this..."

The young man holding Medusa's penis seemed flustered, and Miku also sensed something was wrong, turning to look at the young man.

"Hey, you look familiar!"

"me?"

“It’s you!” Miku scratched his head and slowly superimposed the image of the young man in front of him with a guy in his memory.

"Holy crap, what's Beast Lord, nicknamed Magical Girl, doing here?!"
