The Strange Cat from Fuuto

"The ability to become invisible?!" Sengoku Ryoma, his thumb gripping the Lemon Energy Lock Seed tightly, laughed angrily, "I don't recall adding this ability to the Sengoku Driver!"

"So you created this thing? Interesting!"

He chuckled as he touched the Emerald Driver at his waist; his previous invisibility was entirely achieved through his abilities.

Emerald, who had experimented with using her abilities in Driver transformation mode, was astonished to discover that Driver was a complete limiter, not only restricting her own abilities but also affecting her combat power.

Each transformation feels like putting on a thick shackle. It's okay once or twice, but the more times you do it, the stronger the feeling becomes.

Emerald, who was conducting his own experiment, applied his abilities to the driver. After his abilities affected the driver, he found that the feeling of being restrained disappeared, and in its place, he was able to use his own abilities.

His previous invisibility was the result of his deep development of his gaseous abilities!

However, the price was that the knight's portrait on the knight display panel became increasingly blurry, with the fading becoming more and more severe each day.

The current Knight Armor is just for show; after transforming, Emerald feels like she's wearing a theatrical costume.

"Interesting?!" Sengoku Ryoma laughed angrily. "Although the Sengoku Driver is just a product I discarded, you seem to have no right to comment on it!"

Seeing that her thumb was tightly gripping the lemon lock switch, Emerald chuckled and said, "I'm not criticizing your ideas, it's just that you overestimate what you've created."

"Sometimes, excessive trust breeds arrogance, and arrogance can destroy everything you believe in!"

"What exactly are you trying to say?!" Zhan Ji Lingma relaxed slightly, judging from the other party's attitude that the other party did not seem to have any malicious intent.

Since that's the case, we might as well listen to more.

"Your idea of ​​achieving final victory through your own drive is certainly good, but sometimes man proposes, God disposes, and unforeseen variables always exist!"

After understanding Emerald's words, Sengoku Ryoma remembered the guy that the director had specifically mentioned. He used the forbidden Apple Lock Seed but failed to go berserk, and his combat power was so strong that he directly defeated the director.

“That’s right, sometimes man proposes, God disposes!” Zhan Ji Lingma suddenly said, changing the subject, “But what does all that have to do with you coming here?!”

"Of course there's a connection. You and I both want a piece of the golden fruit, but until the final showdown, we're all on the same starting line!"

"I don't think so. Having developed two major drives, I am more familiar with the power of drives than anyone else, and the power I can unleash far exceeds that of others!"

"In this situation, do you think I'm still on the same starting line as everyone else?!"

"Are you really that sure?!" Emerald tilted her head and chuckled softly. The next second, Emerald flashed in front of Sengoku Ryoma and reached out to grab Sengoku Ryoma's wrist, which was holding the Lemon Lock Seed.

"Can you still be so confident now?!" The jade hand, which had been slowly increasing its pressure, trembled, and Zhan Ji Lingma's hand went sore, so he subconsciously loosened his grip.

"Snapped!"

The jade fingers that caught the energy lock held the lock's head and laughed, "I can kill you anytime I want!"

With a grim expression, Sengoku Ryoma tried to pull his arm back, but after several unsuccessful attempts, he gritted his teeth and said, "You're a psychic?!"

"If you say so, then it is!"

With a light laugh, Jade loosened her grip, and the energy lock seed was tossed back into Zhanji Lingma's hand.

“So, let’s team up!” Emerald whispered, leaning close to Senju Ryoma’s face. “With your skills and my strength, we can easily defeat the others.”

"So what should we do in the final stage?" Zhan Ji Lingma took a step back, rubbing his sore wrist.

"Let's decide the outcome then. After all, our current focus is on eliminating the others!"

After a moment's thought, Zhan Ji Lingma, whose expression changed several times, nodded and said, "Alright, I agree to cooperate!"

"A smart choice!"

Chapter Twenty-Six: Killer Crimson, the rampage of the Apple Lockseed!

"A smart choice!"

Emerald clapped her hands and chuckled, then put her arm around Zhanji Lingma's shoulder. Zhanji Lingma glanced down and slapped Emerald's hand away with a fake smile: "Since we're cooperating, let's start by maintaining a good distance!"

"Oh, I thought you were into that kind of thing!"

Looking at the jade in his palm, Zhan Ji Lingma shrugged and subtly took a step back: "We usually call this 'gay-y'!"

"What do you mean?!"

"Well, we need to start with the propagation of human life. Come, sit down and listen to me..."

"Oh!"

........

Helheim Forest, the ruins of Fimsim, the throne room.

Miku, now back to normal, lay on Sugar's lap, enjoying the little guy massaging her back.

"Yes, right here. Gently, like a feather brushing against a table!"

"Be careful not to mess up my fur; it's a real hassle to groom!"

"And don't touch my tail, it's very sensitive there!"

With his eyes closed, Miku kept muttering to himself, and a contented snoring sound came from his throat.

Seeing this, Bai Ya found it somewhat amusing. He truly hadn't expected that Miku, who usually seemed cold and ruthless, would have such an... innocent and naive side.

Watching Sugar gently brush against Miku's fur, Bai Ya felt a tickle in his palm. Without hiding his feelings, he simply stood up and walked over to Sugar.

Sugar, who was completely absorbed in petting the cat, was suddenly blocked by the sunlight, and a large shadow fell over her.

"Let me try, little girl!"

"Um..."

With a hint of fear, Sugar gently handed Miku to Byakuya. Miku, who was enjoying the moment with her eyes half-closed, suddenly felt her body lighten, and the next second she felt a pair of strong and powerful hands.

"This looks interesting!"

Bai Ya, holding the cat in her left hand, glanced at the cat's soft, smooth fur and then covered it with her right hand.

Starting from the cat's head, give it a good swipe down its spine.

"Ow!!!!"

A piercing scream echoed between the thrones a second later. Miku, frantically breaking free from Baiya's grasp, leaped away and darted back and forth before finally coming to rest on the back of his own throne.

Bai Ya stared blankly at the handful of cat hair in her palm, while Miku looked at the large bald patch on her back with heartache.

"It seems pretty good!"

Twisting the fine fur in his hand, Bai Ya stared intently at Miku. Miku, feeling sorry for his fur, noticed Bai Ya's gaze and his fur stood on end, his entire body swelling up several sizes.

"Don't even think about it!" Miku screamed, hissing at Bai Ya, "If it weren't for the fact that you're my brother, I would have beaten you to death today!"

"Is it that serious?!" Bai Ya twirled the cat fur in her hand as she walked towards Miku. "Just one more time, just one more time. I promise I'll be gentle this time!"

"No, get out of here!"

"I'll definitely go easy on you this time!"

"do not want!"

"I, Miku, would rather die bald or starve here today, or jump off this mountain, than let you touch me!"

Ten minutes later, Miku, who was lying comfortably on Bai Ya's lap, started snoring contentedly.

"This feels really good!"

With a long-lost look of contentment in his eyes, Bai Ya leaned back on the throne, his hand gently stroking Miku's fur.

In an invisible boundary, a woman with long, white hair, dressed entirely in white with one black eye and one red eye, smiled knowingly upon seeing this scene.

.......

"I can't stand it anymore! I've been cooped up in the forest the whole time, I'm practically growing mushrooms from boredom!"

"No, I have to go find Wang and ask him to make arrangements for me!"

"Anything is fine, as long as I can escape these boring days!"

With his mouth constantly chanting, Shinku exuded his aura without restraint, leaving behind a series of afterimages as he sped along.

As soon as Crimson, who had gone straight to the throne room, arrived in front of White A, she couldn't wait to say, "Your Majesty, please..."

Shinku, who had just opened her mouth but hadn't finished speaking, looked up and saw Hakuya looking content and the cat lying on Hakuya's lap enjoying itself.

"Uh..." Bai Ya scratched his head guiltily and said, "Did I see something I shouldn't have seen?!"

The next second, an overwhelming killing intent swept across the throne room.

Half an hour later, Zhenhong, his face bruised and swollen, lay on the ground convulsing. The greatsword he had just had repaired by the old goat craftsman of the Fimsim clan had broken again.

Miku handed Sugar the curved horn that he was so proud of on his head. Sugar looked at this strange man who had tortured and killed her uncle, who was her guardian, and felt that the curved horn in her hand was too hot to handle.

"Keep this safe, I'll make you a comb with it later!"

Upon hearing Miku's words, Shinku trembled. At most, her king would beat her up as a form of severe punishment.

But this cat is really ruthless; every time I see him, I never get away with anything!

"Shinku, what are you doing here?!"

Bai Ya sat on the throne, looking down at Zhen Hong who was lying on the ground. Zhen Hong groaned as she got up, obediently squatting in place and drawing circles with her hands, saying, "I came here to ask you to arrange something for me, just like when I charged into battle for you back then. I want to fight for you again!"

"I see!" Bai Ya nodded slightly, understanding his old subordinate's thoughts. To put it bluntly, he was just bored and wanted to find some fun.

“In that case, you, you blockhead, can be the Killer!” Miku, lying on Sugar’s lap, spoke up before Bai Ya could even speak. “The current survival game is still a bit short-handed with just the two of us, and there are some rule-breakers involved. I don’t know how to deal with them, so let’s just let this guy do these things!”

"What are you thinking?!"

After listening to Miku's suggestion, Bai Ya asked Zhen Hong what she thought. Zhen Hong suddenly stood up from the ground and said, "Can it be used to kill people?!"

"You can kill whoever you want!"

"Then I'll do it!"

“In that case…” Miku pulled a blank Sengoku Driver from the throne and tossed it to Shinku.

"Before I hand this over to you, let me explain a few things!"

"First, you cannot attack those who are qualified, and you must help them when appropriate. Second, you cannot reveal your true form while fighting; you must use the Battle Drive."

Finally, "If you reveal your true identity, then..." A cold glint flashed in the cat's eyes: "You know the consequences!"

"Yes!"
