The Strange Cat from Fuuto

.....................

In a strange and magnificent world, on a plain.

The plants in the Helheim Forest grow wildly and unrestrainedly, with lock-shaped fruits everywhere. Two cats, one big and one small, lie with their eyes closed in the flower bushes.

"Well....."

Mick, who let out a low groan, was the first to wake up. Looking around blankly, he began to sort through his previous memories.

"Damn it, that guy was targeting both of us! He's a complete lunatic!"

Remembering the boy whose heart Miku had pierced, a hint of anger flashed in Mick's eyes.

But when he saw the little guy sleeping sprawled out on his back, the anger in his eyes was replaced by tenderness.

"Never mind, as long as the little guy is safe and sound, that's more important than anything else!"

Mick, who was standing guard beside the little guy, shielded him with his own body, but just then, an indescribable fluctuation came from afar.

The speed at which they approached was extremely fast!

"Who goes there?!"

Mick quickly stood up and shielded the little guy behind him, his back arched and a hint of ferocity flashing in his eyes.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

As the crisp sound of footsteps reached Mick's ears, the little guy woke up, rubbing his eyes and yawning with his mouth wide open.

"What's wrong, meow, Uncle?"

"Where am I, meow?"

Mick did not answer the little guy's question. The pressure from the woman in front of him was as heavy as a mountain and as vast as the ocean.

With just a casual glance from the other person, Mick felt a chill run down his spine and quickly spread throughout his body.

After glancing at Mike, who looked as if he had fallen into an ice cave, the Daughter of the Beginning remained silent, instead looking at the bewildered little guy behind him.

"Come with me!"

After leaving a message, the Daughter of the Beginning walked forward. Mick slowly turned around. Even though he was unsure of her intentions, Mick still cautiously picked up the little guy and followed the Daughter of the Beginning.

Within minutes, the man and the two cats arrived at a cliff, below which lay a vast plain.

There stood three armies in a tripartite formation, with two of them arranged in a formation resembling the cross-section of an orange and the other resembling a banana.

The third force was significantly weaker in number compared to the other two.

But Mick, who had taken everything in, opened his mouth slightly and stared wide-eyed.

"Why is the eldest brother down there?!"

The leader of the third army was Miku, who wore a cloak draped in stars, and behind him stood fourteen knights with their heads bowed.

"What on earth is going on?!"

"In war, the victors live forever in glory, while the losers are left to rot in the dust, never to rise again."

The Daughter of Beginning spoke softly, her eyes sweeping over Miku before looking into the distance, where another woman dressed identically to her stood.

The woman stood on the other side of the cliff, looking at the other two leaders with a worried expression.

The Daughter of Beginnings seemed to speak to herself, saying, "In this battle, we will be the victors!"

........

In the Warring States period, the sacred tree worshipped by everyone has been completely reduced to a giant torch, and on the plain where the sacred tree stands, two figures are constantly clashing.

"Boom!"

A heavy, muffled thud, like the beating of war drums, resounded in mid-air as Miku's fist collided with his opponent's, creating ripples in the surrounding air.

"You're great!"

Miku exclaimed in admiration, then stepped back and ripped off his cloak to cover the other person.

"laugh!"

As the mysterious man cleaved through the cloak with a massive axe, Miku bent his arms backward.

"Buzz!"

With a buzzing sound, the golden gem on Miku's chest lit up rapidly, and in the next instant, a bright yellow energy beam shot out.

In the blink of an eye, the light beam traversed the spatial distance between Miku and the mysterious man. Faced with the highly compressed light beam capable of cutting through mountains, the man was about to defend himself when Miku suddenly vanished from his spot and reappeared behind him, ramming into him with great force.

The mysterious man, who had just been struck on the back, instantly lost his defensive stance and faced the light head-on.

"boom!!!"

A deafening explosion rang out in mid-air, and through the thick smoke, the mysterious figure plummeted rapidly toward the ground.

Miku floated in mid-air, looking at the mysterious man who had smashed a large crater in the ground with a blank expression.

"Whoosh..."

With a swift movement, Miku pulled a star-patterned cloak from thin air, draped it over his shoulders, and floated towards the ground.

"You lost."

Miku, speaking calmly, looked down at the mysterious man, who was still struggling, his eyes revealing a sense of unwillingness.

"Now you have to tell me everything you know."

What is the destroyer of history? What does it mean to be a supreme overlord? And what is the destiny of that child you speak of?

Miku, who had just lifted the mysterious man off the ground, said coldly, "Now spit it all out!"

"Heh...hehe..."

The mysterious figure, chuckling softly, tilted his head and said, "All of this is unavoidable. You will eventually face your end and extinction!"

"And the extinction of the Rice Clan!"

His words carried a hint of inexplicable sorrow. Just then, the mysterious man's body collapsed rapidly like sand. Miku looked at the sand on the ground and rubbed the sand in his hand.

"Ha, the future is not predetermined, nor is fate. I can overcome any obstacle now!"

Even if it's fate and an uncertain future!

"Everything, everything, will be firmly in my grasp!"

With a flick of his robe, Miku turned and left, the sand on the ground quickly dissipating in the increasingly strong wind.

Miku, with the burnt-out sacred tree behind him, looked up at the sky where thunder continued to rumble.

"This world is doomed!"

............

"Evacuate the people immediately!"

After shouting something to Tokugawa Ieyasu's soldiers, Gaim ran to the other side and found Tokugawa Ieyasu again: "Are there any more men? We don't have nearly enough!"

"I've already sent people to mobilize troops. What's wrong with this world? First, a martial god named Armor Warrior appeared, and now the celestial phenomena have suddenly changed, and the earth is collapsing. Is this some kind of punishment from heaven?"

"Whatever the reason, our priority is to get people to safety!"

"Ok!"

Gaim and Tokugawa Ieyasu quickly ended their conversation, and while Gaim was evacuating civilians with the troops, he encountered Sha-Cheng, Ao-Jiao, and Baron.

"How's the situation here?"

As soon as Sha Cheng met Gaim, he couldn't wait to ask what was going on. Gaim glanced at the busy crowd around him and sighed, "We are severely understaffed, and there are still many people who haven't been evacuated!"

"Then we'll help out too."

"Thank you..." Before he could finish speaking, Gaim's expression suddenly froze, because everything around him seemed to stop moving as if a cassette tape had jammed, and even the thunder and lightning in the distant sky paused.

"What's going on?"

Silly Orange looked around blankly, when DJ Xiang Le appeared in front of them.

"You're that weird old man!"

"Hey, we meet again!"

"What do you want to do here?" Ao Jiao asked coldly. DJ Xiang Le walked around the four of them before slowly saying, "I'm here to set things right."

"what do you mean?"

"It's very simple. Due to the influence of some troublesome guy, two spacetimes that shouldn't have been connected came into contact, and because of the contact between the four of you, causality and the continuity of spacetime have become disordered and paradoxical."

"A large part of the reason why the world has become like this is because of you."

"So..." DJ Sagara's eyes gradually turned cold and ruthless, "Only one of you can remain in the world, while the other will be devoured and absorbed!"

"what?"

Startled, Sha Cheng exclaimed, while Ao Jiao glanced thoughtfully at Baron beside him.

Bai Ya rose from his throne and approached Sugar. "Are you ready?"

"I..." Sugar hesitated for a moment before looking up at Bai Ya. Bai Ya's expression was calm, his eyes devoid of any emotion.

"Could you give me some more time?" Sugar pleaded in a low voice. "I want to see him again."

"I would like to give you some more time, but unfortunately, neither of us has much time left."

"You need to make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise you will completely lose your eligibility."

"If I do this, will it really keep him by my side?"

In response to Sugar's question, Bai Ya nodded: "It all depends on your choice."

"Then, I accept..."

"Very good!" Bai Ya took out the golden fruit from his body, but as soon as the golden fruit appeared, it burst out with dazzling golden light.
