The Strange Cat from Fuuto

"Ok!"

"I made it! As expected of a magic core, most crafters will never encounter this kind of material in their entire lives!"

Serena, her face flushed with an inexplicable blush, spoke excitedly. Miku pouted, but transformed into a knight without slowing down at all.

"Then let me give it a try!"

Miku, after receiving the ring, first examined the design on the ring face. The design was a half-black, half-gold human face, usually a smiling face and sometimes a sad face.

"Why does this thing look like the old version of the Fate Coin from DNF (Dungeon Fighter Online)?"

Miku muttered something, put the ring on, turned the driver, and finally placed it on his waist.

"Fate Start!"

As the magical chant began, Miku felt a mysterious sensation, as if he could control his luck.

"This seems like a possible way to play!"

As Miku casually waved his hand, a thought flashed through his mind.

Just then, a strong wind suddenly blew across the sea. As the wind reached the coastline, it became even stronger. Under the influence of some force, a gale rushed into the living room window that had been open for ventilation.

A strong wind swept through the living room, causing the ceiling light to sway violently as if it would fall at any moment.

Serena's skirt billowed upwards in the strong wind.

"Wow, it's purple this time!"

"That's awesome!"

"Miku!"

Serena, pressing her skirt down, expressionlessly put on her specially made ring and turned the knob on it.

"Power!"

A minute later, Miku, who was being hammered by Serena, looked at the ring in his hand with shining eyes: "Now, I can control my luck so that when Beast Lord rolls the dice, he never rolls a number higher than 'bigger'!"

Hehehe..

Miku, who was emitting a sinister laugh, was naturally going to get another beating from Serena. But he was in his transformed state, and she wanted to beat him black and blue like before.

Lolita grandma, you're so naive!

Chapter Thirty-Six: A Grand Drama of Sisterly Love!

In the dark and damp underground sewers, the continuous dripping sound of water echoed in the dim environment.

Medusa, dressed in a colorful long dress and with a brightly colored shawl draped over her shoulders, walked through the crowd with her feet barely touching the ground, but her gloomy face revealed that she was not in a good mood.

She did as Miku said, but was scolded by the sage who suddenly returned. Moreover, the sage's aura was somewhat unstable, as if he was trying his best to cover something up.

Although it was faint, Medusa still detected it clearly!

It's important to know that Medusa is the only Phantom capable of finding "doors." Although she possesses the unique Mystic Eyes of Petrification, her sensory abilities should not be underestimated.

Just then, Medusa, who had raised her head, stopped in her tracks. After composing herself, she crossed her arms and said calmly, "What do you want from me again?"

"You're really perceptive! As expected of you, Medusa!"

Miku, emerging from the shadows in his wild basic form, faced Medusa face to face. Shrugging his shoulders, he put one hand on his hip and said, "I've come to borrow something from you."

"I don't seem to have anything to lend you. If you want to borrow my life, don't forget that we have a contract!"

Medusa, a hint of apprehension in her eyes, suddenly felt that making a contract with Miku wasn't such a bad thing after all. After all, this guy had become very strong now, a world apart from when she first met him.

But precisely because of this, Medusa, who believes she is bound by a contract, has the confidence to face Miku, since the game is not over yet.

"Don't worry, I just want to borrow some ghoul magic stones from you. I'm not here to cause you any trouble. I need magic stones for something."

"What do you need the magic stone for?" Medusa, who was very wary of Miku, became more alert upon hearing this. What is this rogue cat up to now?

"I'm just going to deliver a gift, because I'm going to do something really interesting next!"

With his arms outstretched, Miku indicated that he meant no harm and told you not to overthink it, as you wouldn't be the next target for his mischief.

"I can give you the magic stone; it's not particularly valuable to me. But you have to give me some information!"

"Oh!!!"

Miku, drawing out his words, walked into Medusa, circled her once, and then laughed, "It seems you have some doubts!"

"This is none of your business. Just tell me if you're willing to trade or not. I'll exchange your information for my magic stones!"

"Switch? Of course we'll switch! But I have an even more fun way to play that you'd like to try!"

With his arm draped over Medusa's shoulder, Miku revealed a sinister smile.

Compared to persecuting Beast Lord, he now has a more interesting target, and keeping Beast Lord in suspense will also benefit his plans!

Miku originally planned to use magic stones as bait to lure Beast Lord to join him, but now it seems that Medusa's situation is more interesting!

"What kind of gameplay is this?!"

Medusa frowned and spoke softly. Miku released her arm. "I'll keep that a secret for now, but for the sake of the game's fun, I want you to thoroughly understand everything about the [Gate] you devoured!"

"【Door】?"

Medusa's brow furrowed even deeper, a hint of displeasure in her expression. To the Phantoms, they were entirely different from the "Gate" that gave birth to them; though they inherited everything from the other, they were fundamentally different.

The fact that the Guremlin refer to them by the name of "the Gate" shows how much they dislike it!

Medusa, in particular, was someone he loathed!

"What exactly do you want?"

"I said it was just to add a little bit of fun!"

Miku, who reached out from behind Medusa and pulled her into his arms, spoke in a low voice with a hint of ambiguity.

Torii-zaka, Ryousen Academy High School.

"This is the game you were talking about?"

Medusa, looking at her clothes with some impatience, glanced coldly at the blue-haired, golden-spotted cat beside her.

Medusa has now shed her somewhat aloof attire and is instead dressed in casual clothes, giving her a friendly, girl-next-door feel. Her long, flowing hair is tied back in a ponytail.

Miku curled his lip and said, "Ah, this is a very interesting game. I've spent a lot of money on it!"

Miku felt a chill run down his spine when he recalled the scene of Serena drawing away his magic.

This old lady will definitely drain him dry one day!

She's definitely a juice-making machine!

"Tsk, I hope what you're saying really happens!"

Medusa, who was about to lift her long hair, paused, then remembered that her hair was tied up. Disappointed, Medusa lowered her hand and waited quietly at the school gate.

Soon, the melodious school bell rang, and at the same time, a cacophony of noises filled the school grounds.

"Looks like get out of class is over!"

With a nostalgic look in his eyes, Miku turned and left Medusa's side. Medusa noticed and called out to him, "Where are you going?"

"What are you doing?" Miku asked, looking at Medusa with a puzzled expression. "You're leaving the stage, of course. After all, it's your turn now. Remember to perform well and don't give yourself away!"

After saying that, Miku walked away on his own. He didn't take Iggy with him; it was better for Iggy to be less involved in some things!

As Miku left Medusa, a red bicycle flashed by in the corner of his eye, making him nostalgic for the days when he was high above the world.

"I wonder how Mick is doing these days!"

......

"Mayu, are you going to the coffee shop with us later?"

"I think I'll pass!"

The girl, named Mayu, was wearing a light-colored school uniform, a knitted scarf around her neck, and a family of four ornament on her shoulder bag.

"Hey, don't be so heartless! Let's all go together, that's more fun!"

The unusually large chubby girl leaned close to Mayu Inamori and started talking in a sweet voice. Several boys passing by clutched their chests and quickened their pace to leave. They were afraid their hearts wouldn't be able to take it if they listened any longer!

"Oh well!"

Mayu Inamori nodded shyly and followed the chubby girl. To the left of the chubby girl were two cute high school girls. The three of them, full of youthful energy, chatted and laughed as they arrived at the school gate. Mayu Inamori, who habitually looked at the school gate, stopped in her tracks.

Inamori Mayu's eyes widened in disbelief, her whole body trembling, her eyes red, and the veins on her hands gripping her backpack bulging.

"What's wrong, Mayu?"

The chubby girl looked at Inamori Mayu with a puzzled expression. Just then, the person who made Inamori Mayu tremble all over opened his arms.

"elder sister!"

Mayu Inamori ran to Medusa's side and buried her face deeply in Medusa's chest. Medusa took the opportunity to hug Mayu Inamori, her nominal sister, tightly.

But this reunion, which should have been touching, showed no joy in Medusa's eyes, only a calm.

"Meow!"

A meow startled Medusa awake, and Medusa immediately hugged Inamori Mayu with a look of tenderness in her eyes.

"That's more like it! You need to put more emotion into your acting!"

Miku, hiding in the shadows, nodded. Medusa's gaze just now was too distracting; if someone noticed, it would definitely give her away!

But now it seems that Medusa's acting skills are not bad. She was only a little out of place during the first hug, but she quickly corrected it after Miku reminded her.

"In this way, I can slowly disrupt all of White Demon's plans!"

Miku muttered to herself, staring at the two "sisters." Inamori Mayu hugged Medusa for a while before shyly letting go, her face flushed, and said, "I'm sorry, sister, it's been so long since we last met, so..."

"It's alright, on the contrary, this is my good sister!"

Medusa gently tidied Mayu Inamori's slightly disheveled hair as she spoke. At that moment, the chubby girl who had been with Mayu Inamori and two other girls also came over.

"Who is Mayu...?"

The three of them were somewhat surprised to see Medusa, who looked exactly like Mayu Inamori.
