The Strange Cat from Fuuto

"Forget it, never mind. Let's beat him up first!"

As the Star Staff spun, Miku slowly walked towards Regios. Regios got up from the ground: "Why is this guy so powerful?"

"hateful!"

With gritted teeth, Regios slowly stood up, leaning on his longsword. Seeing this, Miku aimed his Star Staff at Regios with a feint.

"boom!"

Before he could even regain his footing, Regios was pinned to the ground again. Miku came to Regios's side and sighed helplessly, "Why can't you listen to me?"

"Why don't you just hide properly and do whatever you want in secret?"

But why do you have to be so reckless?

"Why did you have to run into Sister Fa if you're going to be reckless?"

With a cold gaze, Miku used the Star Scepter to provoke Regios; now he was going to set things right.

As starlight burst forth like a silver bottle shattering, Miku and Regio disappeared from the rooftop.

The next second, Miku led Region to a wasteland on the outskirts of town. After looking around, Miku nodded in satisfaction: "The scenery here is nice, perfect for burying people!"

As he spoke, Regio was buried in the ground, leaving only his head.

"Behave yourself and sleep peacefully underground for a while!"

After removing the Regulus Ring, Miku put on the Jungle Ring, but at that moment, the change of ring caused a momentary imbalance in her magic.

The oppression and constraints from the invisible forces have been greatly reduced!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Suddenly, several murky red light bullets enveloped in deep blue energy shot out from Regios's single, murky red eye.

After the light bullet accurately hit Miku, Miku, whose chest exploded with sparks, couldn't help but take a step back.

The sudden attack destabilized Miku's magic, and Regios seized the opportunity to burst from underground, wielding a long sword and slashing upwards, cutting Miku from his left waist to his right shoulder.

"Damn it, I overlooked that!"

Miku, whose body was stiffened by the light bullet, watched helplessly as Regios left a dark red slash mark on his chest.

The slash shattered space, tearing it apart, leaving a wrist-thick spatial rift across Miku's chest.

"Crack!"

The Jungle ring that Miku was holding fell from his hand. Regios grinned and said, "Damn it, how dare you disturb my enjoyment? Now I will completely shatter your inner world and destroy your source of magic!"

As he spoke, Regios used his longsword to create a spatial rift, as if lifting a veil. He stepped into the rift and vanished from Miku's sight.

"Damn it, things have been going too smoothly lately, and I've gotten a little complacent!"

Ever since Regios vanished from his body, Miku gritted his teeth and said, "Great power breeds arrogance, and I must remember that!"

Miku, who was warning himself, felt a tearing pain in his body, and it was clear that Regios was beginning to destroy his inner world.

However, Miku, enduring excruciating pain, sneered: "It's easy to get in, but getting out will be difficult!"

Miku, who has the memory of a saber-toothed tiger inside him, is not afraid of any external invasion. Back when the white tiger was first born, it was beaten and made to meow!

Meanwhile, in Miku's inner world.

"Is this what that guy's heart is like?"

Seeing Miku holding Serena in his arms, Regios snorted, "Looks like this guy isn't entirely useless after all!"

"However, that's all for now!"

As the long sword was swung, Miku's memories were shattered into pieces.

"what!!!"

With a painful howl, Miku clenched his teeth, waiting for Region to enter the deepest part of his inner world, where a great gift awaited him!

Is there anything else?

After destroying the scene before him, Regios's eyes flashed, and his previously shattered inner world was filled anew.

This time, it's a picture of a husky with its mouth wide open running towards a cat.

"Anything else?" Regio, leaning on his long sword, glared. "While the reunion is wonderful, this isn't what I wanted!"

He wielded the long sword with both arms and slashed down mercilessly, shattering the scene once again.

"Ugh!!!"

Miku, writhing in excruciating pain, let out another heart-wrenching howl. But this was not the end. The precious memories that kept appearing in Miku's inner world were shattered by Regios time and time again.

"You bastard, I'm going to tear you apart!!!"

Chapter 78: The Protection of Family, the Queen's Arrival!

"You bastard, I'm going to tear you apart!"

As his body writhed in pain, Miku let out another roar. This time, he had failed; he had been far too careless.

With great power comes deep-rooted arrogance, and as things become increasingly smooth for him, he is almost forgetting the hardships he once endured.

"Damn it, this guy is getting more and more outrageous!"

The precious memories rooted in Miku's inner world are now being ruthlessly destroyed by Regio.

The precious memories in everyone's heart are the pillars of their inner world, supporting everyone's hopes.

The more powerful a being is, the more pillars their inner world has, but there is always one most important and crucial support!

Miku can hold on until Regios destroys all his pillars, but once the most vital pillar is breached, the consequences of his magical destruction await him.

While not fatal, it would mean losing the White Tiger, the source of her magic. Miku had gone to great lengths to erode, devour, and absorb the White Tiger; once it was destroyed, all of Miku's efforts would be in vain!

If we think about it from this perspective, in the original story, the dragon was killed by Regios to protect Beast Lord. As long as the White Tiger doesn't show too much of his face, it should be fine!

I guess so!

After all, Regios already hates Miku to the core, and having penetrated the deepest part of Miku's inner world, it's not impossible that he might kill the White Tiger while he's at it!

"asshole!"

Gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, Miku gripped the soil beneath him fiercely with his hands, and as the soil churned, the bloodshot in Miku's eyes grew thicker.

"Smilodon is in your hands now. Tear this bastard apart!"

Miku, hardened by the threat within him, felt his important memories being constantly destroyed, and the murderous intent in his eyes grew stronger and stronger.

In his mind, those memories grew increasingly blurry until they disappeared completely.

In Miku's inner world, Regio, carrying his double-edged sword, slowly strode forward, having already shattered many of Miku's inner memories.

Miku and Mik's memories of parting!

Memories of Mik being absorbed by Miku!

Memories of spending time with Uncle Hong!

...........

As his memories are shattered, Regios delves ever deeper into Miku's inner world. In the process, Regios also discovers that Miku does not belong to the Wizard's world.

"This guy's really holding up!" Regios sneered, shattering the scene before him. New memories filled in after the shattered image. "But how much longer can you hold out?"

"I'm curious!"

"what!!!"

Miku roared madly, his body twisting unconsciously. Behind him, his tail stood erect, and his eyes were filled with a mixture of pain and murderous intent, revealing an overwhelming ferocity.

At this moment, Regios, who had arrived at the deepest part of Miku's inner world and was only half a step away from the Saber-toothed Tiger Memory, examined the scene in front of him.

In the gray-white scene, in the magnificent hall, a gentleman with brown glasses watches with a smile a person, a cat, and a dog playing together. A smart and capable woman stands with her arms crossed, watching the scene with disdain, but a deep, hidden envy is revealed in her eyes.

"Memories of family?" Regio, wielding his longsword, raised it high. "They only bring me fleeting pleasure!"

"Compared to that woman who stood up for others, you are far too low-class!"

"Let me destroy this utterly boring memory in your heart with my own hands!"

"Shh!"

The long sword fell with a sharp whistling sound, its blade, which glowed with a peculiar, murky red light, mercilessly slashing down.

"clang!"

The sound of metal clashing echoed in Miku's inner world. Regio stared wide-eyed at the girl who had suddenly turned around in front of him.

The girl was wearing a white pleated skirt, and her face, which should have been beaming with a bright smile, was now filled with anger.

"boring?"

The old man, who had been standing quietly to one side, walked over to Wakana with a smile, but beneath that smile lay an utterly chilling aura. "You dare call our family memories boring!"

"Boy, you're really bold!" The old man raised his hand and pointed at Regio, his aura suddenly exploding. The aura of the emperor who once ruled the underworld of Fengdu was naturally extraordinary.

"How could this be..."

Startled, Regio pressed down hard on his longsword, only to find himself unable to advance an inch. The girl's slender hands contained immense power; with just a slight exertion of her fingers, she left clear fingerprints on Regio's longsword.

"Damn it!" Unable to draw his sword, Regios had no choice but to abandon his idea of ​​taking back his weapon. Regios, letting go of his sword, looked warily at the old man and the young man in front of him.

Who are you?

"Us?" Wakana tilted her head and smiled, "We are a race chosen by Earth!"

"They're also family members of Sonozaki Miko!"

“Family?” Regios’s single, murky red eye flashed as he categorically denied it. “Impossible. The inner world cannot contain anything independent of the living being itself. Even the Phantom, which is the source of magic, is dependent on it!”

"The inner world contains only memories!!!"

"Although I don't understand what you're talking about, don't underestimate the feelings and bonds between family members!" The old man took off his brown glasses, revealing a pair of sharp and piercing eyes, which shone with a frosty purple light.

Behind the old man appeared a strange, phantom-like figure wearing a crown, with a faint echo of maniacal laughter reverberating in the void.

Just being stared at by the old man, Regio felt a faint sense of fear creep into his heart.
