The Strange Cat from Fuuto

Wakana, now free from control, was somewhat bewildered, but quickly recalled how Isaka had tricked her, and angrily declared, "That doctor, I won't let him get away with this!"

Wakana, who left the garage in a huff, didn't notice Philip desperately hiding himself in a corner not far away.

"Phew, they're finally gone!"

Philip, who was often exhaling, started to get a headache again when he saw the mess everywhere.

"How am I going to explain this to Akiko?!"

After following Wakana all the way to the Isaka Internal Medicine Hospital, Miku hid in the shadows and watched Wakana angrily walk into the hospital.

Miku sneaked in quietly. Because Isaka was doing some illegal things, there were no surveillance cameras installed, which made it much easier for Miku to infiltrate.

Wakana flung open the door and angrily yelled at Isaka, "You bastard, how dare you treat me like this!"

"Stop, Wakana!"

Just as Wakana raised her right hand, Saeko stopped her. Saeko floated in mid-air and said slowly, "It's time for you to stop!"

"Why are you stopping me, sister?"

"You need to mature a bit!"

"I'll have to kill this scoundrel doctor first!"

"Looks like you're determined to rebel to the very end!"

As Saeko left the room, she raised her hand and a dark red energy ball condensed in her palm. Upon seeing this, Wakana immediately condensed a bright yellow energy ball in her right hand.

Just as the conflict between the two sisters was about to erupt, something unexpected happened: Wakana actually overpowered her older sister and forcibly forced Saeko into her transformed state.

"Are you alright, sister?"

In a panic, Wakana deactivated her transformation and went to help Saeko. However, Saeko refused.

"You should go back now, Wakana!"

"All right!"

Sullenly pondering her own changes, Wakana walked out of the hospital.

Miku watched Wakana get into the car before returning to the hospital.

"Why has Wakana's ability improved so much?" Saeko followed behind Isaka, constantly asking.

"Because I modified the driver, changing it to a direct-plug mode!"

"Direct plug-in mode!?"

Saeko was quite surprised by this. Direct insertion only applied to those who used commercial memory, while her family members had their own drivers. Those who used the universal direct insertion mode were all severely affected by the toxins, even leading to personality distortions.

"Won't this have a negative impact on Wakana?"

He was very worried and shocked when he heard about the changes that Isaka made to the Wakana Driver.

"Impact?" Isaka scoffed dismissively. "You've already clashed with her, haven't you noticed any problems?"

"The existence of the driver greatly hinders the evolution of memory!"

"Only the power of anger can cause a memory to evolve. I originally had the highest hopes for Miku, but who knew that my plan not only failed to achieve its intended result, but also caused him to disappear!"

"What a pity!"

Isaka sighed as he looked out the window at the greenery with his hands behind his back. Miku, who had heard the whole conversation, was squatting on the rooftop, his teeth practically grinding to dust!

"Damn it, Isaka!"

Miku's claws dug deep into the cement, his bloodshot eyes filled with murderous intent!

Chapter 54: With the new cheat code in hand, Miku set a small goal!

In his transformed state, Miku is half-crouched on the roof of the hospital, with Isaka and Saeko below him.

He had intended to avoid the two men, but he never expected to hear the truth.

Although it's just a few words, it's enough!

"Isaka Mikuruo!"

Enraged, Miku's bloodshot eyes were practically overflowing with murderous intent, but if he rashly rushed out now, all he would face was a crushing defeat and being dragged onto the testing platform.

"I'm not strong enough, I'm not strong enough!"

"I need more power!"

Miku, swaying slightly, disappeared from the rooftop, leaving Saeko, whom Isaka had abandoned, standing there in a daze. Clearly, Isaka's words had greatly impacted her!

"It's truly terrifying!" Saeko muttered to herself, appearing somewhat disoriented. But soon, an even more chilling light appeared in the woman's eyes.

"But it suits me perfectly!"

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

"boom!"

Miku, returning to the abandoned house where he had previously lived, kicked open the door roughly and went inside. But Wu Yan was gone; he had his own things to do, not to mention that he hadn't yet fully resolved his physical ailments with Sherrard's help. Seeing Miku's exhilaration, Wu Yan disappeared from his sight.

"Damn it, did Kirihiko leave?"

Miku kicked the wall, creating a large hole that shook the entire room. Dust splattered down, covering him in a layer of grime!

"damn it!"

Miku cursed under his breath and sat down close to the corner of the wall. He still hadn't deactivated his transformation. With Kirihiko gone and no one to help him, it was wishful thinking for him to transform on his own.

"I need more power!"

Touching the dog tag hanging around his neck, Miku's bloodshot eyes flickered continuously.

Miku felt he didn't have much of a chance against Isaka if they went head-to-head. Although his Saber-toothed Tiger was a high-ranking Gold Memory, that bastard doctor's Weather Memory wasn't easy to deal with either. Not to mention, it was a combined ability Memory.

Having immersed himself in the research of Gaia Memory for many years, Isaka's strength is far beyond what Miku can match at present!

In the original series, A-san only managed to defeat his opponent thanks to the upgrade items given to him by Sherrard. However, this was only a defeat, not a death. Ultimately, Isaka's death was due to the aftereffects of using multiple memories; he was severely corrupted, his cells disintegrated, and he finally succumbed to his injuries.

"Memory erosion!?"

Miku had a general idea in mind after thinking about this, but it was still far from mature.

"Looks like you're in trouble, Miku!"

Sherrard, that elusive and crazy woman, appeared beside Miku without him noticing. Startled, he quickly rolled over and leaned against the wall, watching Sherrard warily in front of him!

Do you want revenge?

"I...I...I want to!"

Miku answered haltingly, her eyes revealing a deep-seated hatred—hatred directed at Isaka Shinkuro.

"As long as I can get...get...revenge on that man, I'm willing to give...give...anything!"

“Very good!” Sherrard pulled his right hand out of his pocket and pointed to a corner of the room.

"Then let me grant you power!"

Sometime during the day, a black cloth appeared in the corner of the wall, and something was covered under the cloth.

Miku walked over and removed the black cloth, only to find that what had been covered was a black and white drone.

This drone is slightly different from future drones.

Unlike typical drones with their rounded or square bodies, this drone resembles Kiva's brother's Saga Driver from the old decade. The difference is that it has a groove at the bottom, corresponding to Miku's Earth Driver. The wings on either side seem unremarkable, but is Sherad, the woman who handcrafted the W series' three major Rider Drivers, really that simple?

"How do I use this... this thing?"

When Miku turned around, he found that Sherrard had disappeared without a trace, leaving him alone in the house, staring at each other amidst the dust.

"Are you really sick? Can't you stay and say a few more words?"

Miku, muttering to himself, deactivated his transformation and looked at the drone from left to right, but couldn't figure out where to start.

How do I use it?

The puzzled cat inadvertently touched the surface of the drone with its paw, and a disc-shaped bulge rose from the center of the drone. Below the disc-shaped bulge was a ring, on which a series of flashing lights appeared.

Staring at the suddenly changing spot of light, Miku cautiously raised its paw and touched it repeatedly.

The flashing lights converged in one place and pointed at Miku. This sudden change startled Miku, who jumped backward, tracing a somewhat comical arc in the air before landing on the ground.

"laugh!"

The flaps under the wings on both sides flipped open, revealing several nozzles, and the drone, spewing flames, slowly rose into the air.

The drone paused briefly before quickly approaching Miku.

Finally, it landed on Miku's back, and the groove beneath it connected perfectly with the Earth Drive.

"Crack!"

Miku, feeling the driver on his back loosen, looked up as the drone took off again. The drone, with one extended robotic arm, retracted the saber-toothed tiger memory into its body. Miku's driver was securely locked into a groove beneath the fuselage.

"That's it?"

Miku looked at the drone hovering motionless in the air, a hint of doubt in his mind. But he quickly dismissed it. With the drone's help, his next move would be much easier.

"I just don't know how this drone works?"

"Let the cat be curious!"

Driven by curiosity, Miku looked up at the drone above him when the bell suddenly rang.

"Transform...transform...transform!"

"Buzz!"

The drone, which kept beeping, swooped down and quickly approached Miku.

The drone's driver was attached to Miku's back. Once the driver was in place, a robotic arm extended and activated the saber-toothed tiger memory. As the memory itself rang, the drone's robotic arm inserted the memory into the slot of the driver on Miku's back.

A vibrant green hexagonal pattern spread out, and Miku, who had risen from the ground, kept looking at his hands.

"This is so convenient!"

"But we must still be vigilant!"
