I, the little cat, am a substitute for others who are starving and thin

The room is on the first floor, so this behavior is not too dangerous.

Sayaka turned her face away, feeling awkward in every way: "Well, if I sign a contract with you, you can fulfill one of my wishes, right?"

She had clearly given Xiaoyuan all kinds of advice before.

As expected, I still want to find the kitten more than the unfamiliar Kyubey.

Yimi's eyes lit up: "Anything that can be done by a miracle can be done."

Sayaka took a deep breath and prepared herself mentally: "What should I do?"

"use this."

Yimi took out the apple she had studied.

Sayaka looked down at the apple which was bigger than her fist, and her face turned pale instantly.

This is different from what was promised!

Chapter 17 Improved version.

Outside the public toilet, Yimi folded her two little hands together, carefully approached the cricket in front of her, and then suddenly covered it with her hands.

Caught.

Because in Yimi's eyes, eating is the second most important thing after her mother and grandmother, so she told Sayaka to sign the contract and eat the apple, and it would be best to eat the whole apple completely without leaving any part outside the stomach, so that the contract would be fulfilled.

When Sayaka heard this, she showed an expression of "my life is over" on her face. She came here hesitantly and inexplicably with a painful look on her face. She told Yimi to wait outside for a while and not to come in, but if anyone else wanted to come, she should go in and remind her.

The people in this world are really weird. They have to go to the toilet before eating.

Yimi brought the cricket in her hand to her mouth.

"How can it be done?"

Sayaka's scream scared Yimi so much that she shivered and accidentally let the cricket run away.

She turned around and looked at Sayaka, whose face was flushed red, and saw that there was not a single crack on the apple in her hand. She tilted her head in confusion.

Sayaka pressed down Yimi's head with one hand, using a little too much force, as if she wanted to press Yimi down until she didn't grow taller.

His face was full of anger: "Why are others' apples so small, but you only give me an apple when it comes to mine!"

I can't do it at all. Let alone do it, it's impossible even to try! I should have found that Kewpie, at least theirs is only the size of a strawberry.

Yimi was frightened by her fierce look and put her hands together, still a little puzzled: "One apple, you can finish it, can't you eat it when you are hungry?"

Even when she was little, she could eat a whole apple with just a little nose, but her grandmother didn't let her finish it because she was afraid she would have diarrhea.

"Wait, when you say 'eat', you mean bite it?"

Sayaka reacted.

"if not?"

The kitten looked at her with innocent confusion.

“…I think it’s eaten by biting.”

What else could it be? This would be the first reaction of any normal person seeing an apple, right? It was this kid's deliberate, misleading words like "eat the whole thing, leaving nothing behind," coupled with the usual magical girl's over-the-top transformation that led to her misunderstanding...

She turned and walked towards the sink.

"What are you going to do again?"

The kitten looked at her dejectedly, doing this and that while eating an apple.

“Wash the apples.”

"What I gave you is clean."

"Don't worry!"

Yimi looked at his little paws in shock.

Did she dislike the kitten touching the apple?

After washing the apple, Sayaka still felt a little reluctant. She breathed a sigh of relief and made a wish: "Please heal Kamijou Kyousuke's injury."

With the help of miracles, Sayaka's wish can be fulfilled to a certain extent, and her magical girl power will be determined according to her own wishes and qualifications. Yimi did not make any changes to this.

If Sayaka makes a wish for healing, then she must have outstanding abilities in self-healing, just like Homura Akemi gained the power to control time after making a wish about time.

After making a wish, Sayaka turned the apple over and started eating from the clean side, because she said she would try her best to eat all the fruit, and she didn't even miss the core.

It tasted like an ordinary apple, and there was no warm feeling or anything like that, but I did feel some power after eating it.

And miracles.

Even Kyubey themselves don't understand the principles behind many of their technologies, so Yimi can only combine their technologies with the power he possesses.

A cycle that can naturally generate magic power without replenishing external energy... or a system that creates something out of nothing. This is the miracle created by Yimi.

According to Kyubey's investigation, the girl on Earth is very resistant to the separation of soul and body, so the act of eating the apple is only to connect the circulatory system with Sayaka's soul without extracting the soul, so that she can control and use it at will.

Although he himself possessed the third method of endless energy, it was still too difficult for Yimi, who had never systematically studied magic, to create another endless energy.

Even the first person in the Type-Moon world who mastered the Third Law was unable to teach a disciple to learn the same magic, which led to the creation of the Einzbern family and indirectly caused the subsequent Holy Grail War.

Therefore, how much can be mastered still depends on Sayaka's qualifications. Magic power can be supplied continuously, but how much Sayaka can use and how long it takes to replenish it after it is used up is the question of whether the opening of the vessel is the spout of a teapot or the mouth of a bowl.

Sayaka instinctively clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and a blue gem appeared out of thin air in her palms. Fortunately, it was just an ordinary pendant.

"Is this my Soul Gem? It seems different from Mami-san's?"

"It's a magic gem, an improved version."

Yimi explained: "Your magic power is contained in it. It can transform, and when in danger, you can transfer your soul here. You won't die even if your head falls off, and you can use magic to repair injuries. The gem is also very hard and not easily broken."

"Why does it sound so evil, like Voldemort's Horcrux? Does that mean my Soul Gem is more advanced than those of Mami and the others?"

"Well, it's removed, the side effects."

Yimi raised her head, waiting for Sayaka to praise her.

Because she can generate energy on her own, there is no risk of being contaminated and becoming a witch.

“This is good.”

In Sayaka's eyes: The side effect of the Soul Gem having to be inserted to the "*" before transformation has been removed.

I always feel a little ashamed. Senior Mami and the transfer student made great sacrifices to realize their wishes, but she took advantage of me.

No matter how ashamed she was, she didn't want to be that kind of magical girl. Fortunately, she didn't find that Kyubey.

"As for the price, is fighting the witch the only one?"

Sayaka looked at the gem in her hand in confusion, "Can I make a wish without having to pay the price at the expense of my seniors?"

"The price is that you help me taste the food."

The kitten never forgets its original intention.

"Food tasting? Do you mean helping you try out the new dishes you make? It feels like I'm constantly taking advantage of you."

Sayaka, who had tasted Kewpie soup once, didn't think it was a bad thing.

This little girl is simply a genius. If I remember correctly, she seems to be the one who has been researching the magical girl signing on site these past two days.

"It would be great if we could upgrade Mami-san's Soul Gem as well. Is that possible?"

"do not know."

Yimi was conflicted and wanted to suck her finger, but then she remembered Sayaka's look of disgust towards her, and temporarily corrected her bad habit.

There are many complex things that are more difficult to repair or modify than to build one from scratch.

"I'm too greedy."

Poor senior.

"Kyousuke, you can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, right?"

Sayaka hugged Yimi and said, "Thank you. I will fulfill my responsibilities as a magical girl."

She had clearly felt the miracle when she made the wish just now.

"You should go back to bed early, I will study this."

Sayaka waved to Yimi, turned around and ran towards her home.

She had missed the last bus, but she felt her steps were so light that she could just run back home.

Yimi counted her fingers.

There are already four magical girls, but she still can't make delicious Kyubey.

"how did you do it?"

Kyubey, who had been following Sayaka, finally stopped caring about Yimi and jumped out to ask, "You can control the 'miracle' yourself, but the way you do it is hard for me to understand. If you don't use emotions to generate energy, what's the point of creating magical girls?"

Kyubey.

Grab it and twist your neck to the right.

Chapter 18 The cat was fooled.

Xunzi went to work, Xiaoyuan went to school, and even Chiku went to send Tatsuya to the nursery first.

For the time being, Yimi is the only one at home, so this is a good opportunity to cook.

She stood on a small stool and carefully processed the pieces of Kewpie meat.

It is hard to tell what kind of meat the skinned kuppies are. Their shape is somewhat similar to rabbit and mouse. After bleeding, the white meat looks so unappealing that people are not interested in eating it raw.

Therefore, Yimi needs to use decent knife skills to remove the bones and cut them into small pieces. For sashimi, it seems that this step is almost done.

In order to save materials, only two pieces of meat are enough. Anyway, the system requires deliciousness, not filling.

Finally, there is this Lonely Sauce. I forgot to ask Zhijiu how to use it.

The kitten looked down at the piece of meat he had put into the bowl and tentatively poured in some loneliness sauce. It didn't seem to be very colorful, so he simply poured the entire bottle in.

She herself doesn't quite understand what's so good about this thing, but humans like it.

"Your behavior has gone beyond the scope of intelligent creatures I have discovered."

Another intact Kewpie jumped onto the table and stared at the sashimi covered with plastic wrap by Yimi.

"Our flesh wasn't meant to be eaten. No matter how elaborately you process it, it won't taste good. However, it does contain nutrients not found on Earth. Is this what you need?"

Of course it couldn't figure it out, because through its secret observation, Yimi should have used a miraculous power to make its meat delicious.

"If you possess the power to manipulate 'miracles' at will, then so-called 'delicious' and 'nutritious' shouldn't be a problem for you."

It lay on the chopping board, staring at Yimi with its tiny pink eyes. "A 'miracle' that originates directly from itself, like the infinite, non-volatile entropy power of a perpetual motion machine, shouldn't exist within the existing laws of the universe. So, are you a god?"

"Shouldn't it be?"

Yimi washed the kitchen knife in her hands and looked down at Qiubi on the chopping board.

"If you're interested in the flesh and blood I use for activities, I can give you as much of this stuff as you want."

Kyubey scratched his neck with his hind legs without flinching, "But like the apple you used to sign the contract with Sayaka Miki, this technology is what I, or rather the entire universe, needs."

"Oh."

Yimi crossed her arms, feeling that this deal was a huge loss.

Something as unpalatable as Kewpie meat obviously cannot be equated with Yimi's invention, and the system does not recognize the fact that the meat was made delicious before.

"Are you holding a grudge for my earlier refusal to grant you the magical girl technology? But what I did was perfectly natural, wasn't it? If someone like you were to obtain this technology and find a way to break it, it would be a huge obstacle to the continuation of the universe. Even now, I still can't figure out your actions. Can you explain this to me?"

Kyubey's expression remained the same, not changing at all: "And even so, didn't you still use your method to snatch the principle of the contracted magical girl?"

"No creature with feelings would like to see a girl sacrificed, right? This is a win-win situation. With a better option, we don't need to rely on the energy generated by the witch to maintain the continuation of the universe. Or is this actually insignificant to beings like you?"

Yimi lowered his head even deeper and began to think.

It was clearly Kyubey who did the deed, so why does it seem like the kitten is to blame now?
