The Strange Cat from Fuuto

"Oh!"

Silly Orange was sent flying again, rolling and tumbling as it landed on the ground, leaving a deep trench.

"hateful!"

Silly Orange cursed under his breath and knelt on the ground, panting as he looked at the leisurely cat not far away.

"Haa~~~Yawn!"

He looked up and saw a yawning cat. He paused, brandishing his cane and knife, and said coldly, "Do you know what happened to the last guy who disturbed my sleep?"

Silly Orange didn't answer, but just stared coldly at Miku. Miku shrugged: "You're really boring now!"

"Fine, I'll just cut off your hands and feet first!"

Miku drew a circle as he spun the cane-sword in his hand. Silent Orange knelt on the ground and rapidly twisted the Extreme Lockseed. After being twisted several times, the Extreme Lockseed flashed with light: "All Fruits Attack!"

All the weapons on the armor behind Silly Orange emerged from the void, and with a flash of light from his goggles, the weapons flew out one after another in rapid succession.

"Mu Da, Mu Da, Mu Da..."

The cat, striding forward, deflected the incoming weapons with its cane-sword, knocking them away.

Miku strode quickly to Sha Cheng, holding his cane-sword horizontally in front of him. "Should I cut off your left hand or your right hand first?"

Miku, his eyes scanning Sha Cheng's arms back and forth, grinned maliciously: "Men on the left, women on the right, let's start with the left!"

"call...."

The cane-sword whistled through the air as Miku, holding it high, looked down at Sha Cheng.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

Gunshots rang out, and a series of bullets struck Miku in the chest, knocking him back several steps.

"Um?!"

Miku let out a soft "hmm" and looked behind Sha Cheng. Ao Jiao was holding a DJ gun, with smoke still billowing from the muzzle.

"Drive away the markings and fight!"

Miku muttered to himself as he looked at Aojiao, whose motorcycle was parked behind him. Aojiao put down the DJ gun in his hand and strode towards Miku: "As a Ruler, it seems you've violated the rules by attacking a qualified participant in the Fruit Battle without authorization!"

"Ruler?!"

Ao Jiao's words were overheard by Sha Cheng, who, upon closer inspection, realized that Miku in his current freak form did indeed resemble Ruler quite a bit.

"Troublesome kid."

Miku, who had been muttering irritably while leaning on his cane and sword, suddenly grinned maliciously: "That's right, I am Ruler, but I am also one of the qualifiers for the competition!"

Miku, holding up a finger, grinned and said, "Still the first-place qualified candidate."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, both Sha Cheng and Ao Jiao were startled. Sha Cheng said in a gloomy tone, "As a Ruler, why are you allowed to participate in this competition?"

"This is completely against the rules!"

"Breaking the rules?!" Miku, tilting his head, burst into laughter: "Tell me, what are rules?!"

"The rules I set are for you, not for me."

"Besides, which rule states that Ruler cannot participate?!"

Chapter 84: The Knight Manifestation Begins!

"Besides, who said Ruler can't participate?!"

Miku, leaning on his cane, spoke in a very flippant tone. Aojiao and Shacheng's expressions changed simultaneously, clearly indicating that they understood as well.

The so-called survival game was orchestrated from the very beginning by this Ruler, with the aim of eliminating other potential competitors.

Take a good look. Sawame City has long since become a dead city. Is there anyone else besides them?

Sha Cheng's gaze towards Miku shifted repeatedly. He struggled to sit up from the ground and said in a hoarse voice, "I can't forgive you, I can't forgive you!"

"Because of your selfish desires, the entire city has suffered a calamity!"

"What's wrong with Silly Orange?" Miku, unaware of what Silly Orange was imagining, looked at Silly Orange, who had suddenly erupted in anger, with confusion. His original intention in organizing the survival game was to cultivate Silly Orange and Aojiao through the survival game, but who would have thought that he himself would get caught up in it in the end.

But what does it matter?

Miku grinned, revealing his gleaming white teeth. "I forgot to tell you, it's not just Sawame City; the entire world is now infected by the Helheim Forest."

"what?!"

Ao Jiao exclaimed in surprise and subconsciously took a step forward.

"Are you telling the truth?" Silly Orange asked through gritted teeth. Miku nodded: "That's right, the Helheim Forest has begun to infect this planet."

"Do you know what would happen if the Helheim Forest completely infected the Earth?"

Before the two could answer, Miku muttered to himself, "It's devouring and assimilation!"

"This planet will be swallowed up and assimilated into the Helheim Forest. At that time, humanity, nations, and Earth will all become history!"

"You will also become a part of Helheim, tormented by the curse of the Helheim Forest for the rest of your lives until death."

Finally, Miku, who had been laughing out loud, switched the cane-sword from his right hand to his left. "Want to know how to avoid this worst possible outcome?"

"What is it?"

Sure enough, Silly Orange, with his fist clenched, asked urgently. It seemed that if Miku didn't tell him, he would put a knife to Miku's neck and force him to talk.

"Hey!"

Miku chuckled but didn't answer. He reached into the air, grabbed a new cloak, and wrapped it around himself.

"We've shown our faces enough today. The next time we meet will be a matter of life and death!"

As black mist surged from his body, Miku, whose form slowly faded, left only one sentence echoing in the air.

"Kids, the war has begun!"

After watching Miku leave, Sha Cheng silently deactivated his transformation and walked away into the distance. Ao Jiao, watching Sha Cheng's retreating figure, couldn't help but call out, "Hey, Kuzunoha!"

Miku, who had paused in his steps, stopped in place. Aojiao didn't say much, but simply tossed the DJ gun in his hand over.

"Here's your stuff back. To borrow Ruler's words, the next time we meet will be when we fight to the death!"

Silly Orange, who caught the DJ gun, didn't answer and slowly walked away.

After Sha Cheng left, Ao Jiao looked at the sky that was constantly cracking and collapsing. After a moment, he snorted coldly, turned around, and rode away on his motorcycle.

Once the street had completely quieted down, DJ Sagara suddenly appeared. Looking at the mess around him, he smiled and said, "Looks like it's finally about to begin!"

"The final battle!"

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

Helheim, the underworld forest, between the thrones.

A wisp of black mist appeared out of nowhere, and the next second more and more black mist was squeezed out of the air, just like squeezing out cream, more and more.

Miku's figure emerged from the black mist. Holding a staff-sword, Miku absorbed the surrounding black mist into his body, then casually stuck the staff-sword aside and plopped down on the throne.

The cat, resting its chin on its hand, showed signs of fatigue in its eyes. In a weakened state, it had given Silly Orange a good beating, which had really exhausted it.

Miku, whose gaze involuntarily drifted toward Iggy, clenched his fists. Iggy's chest, covered by vines, rose and fell slightly, proving that he had not yet fallen into the worst situation.

"Don't worry, buddy!"

"I will definitely save you!"

The cat, its eyes flashing with a fierce light, withdrew from its freak form and returned to its cat form, curling up on the cold throne with its eyes closed.

"But before that, we need to restore our strength to its peak."

Inside the cave where Crimson resides in the Helheim Forest.

Ao Jiao returned with Peach Sister carrying large and small bags. Zhen Hong had been waiting for a long time. Upon seeing Ao Jiao, he stood up and said, "Since you're back, let's go!"

"Wait a minute, Master." Looking intently at her master, Ao Jiao asked quietly, "Do you know Ruler's true identity?"

Why are you asking this?

With a furrowed brow, Zhenhong carefully examined Aojiao before saying in a low voice, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask; it won't do you any good."

Zhen Hong walked past Ao Jiao to the outside of the cave. Ao Jiao didn't move. "But I saw him today!"

"And that guy even declared war on me!"

"what?!"

Zhen Hong turned around abruptly and looked at Ao Jiao. After staring into Ao Jiao's sharp eyes for a moment, Zhen Hong whispered, "Give up!"

"Ok?"

"I say let's give up on fighting for the golden fruit!"

"why?"

"Because that person is not someone you can contend with. If you continue, you will be like an egg hitting a rock, shattered to pieces!"

"Give up!"

Zhen Hong's persuasion did not lead Ao Jiao to give up; instead, it fueled his fighting spirit.

"I will not give up. From the very beginning, my goal has been the Golden Fruit. No matter how strong Ruler is, he cannot make me give up my ambition!"

"But....."

"Master, I know what to do." This time, Ao Jiao took the initiative to walk out of the cave, passing Zhen Hong, and said coldly, "I will surpass him, no matter how strong he is!"

Zhen Hong turned around blankly and stared at Ao Jiao.

Silly child, it's good to have determination, but your current strength still comes from someone who bestowed it upon you!

Sawame City, the base of the Gaim forces.

The silly orange figure, whose waist drive was inlaid with a low-grade lock, stared at the candlelight on the table, the candlelight reflecting and flickering in his deep pupils.

"It seems you've made up your mind!"
