It immediately attracted the supercats' attention as the first ray of light from the Light of Creation saturated their world and illuminated the place.
The ceiling was shrouded in this warm, pale yellow glow. It felt exactly like the real sky outside.
Zhao Yao spread his arms and tried to soak in this supposedly wonderful light with his eyes shut together, but there was nothing special about it.
"This is supposed to increase a plant's vitality. Let's test it …"
Zhao Yao instantly teleported into his apartment and brought in a pot of cat grass into the extradimensional belly.
This pot of cat grass originated as a pack of seeds given by TaoBao for Zhao Yao's inordinate spending. Currently, it had already started budding as a pair of tiny green leaves grew from the stem.
These weren't the ordinary catmint that could get cats all excited. Instead, it was a stimulant that would allow better contraction and movements of the intestines. It would allow cats to vomit out balls of furs stuck in the depth of their intestines. This would improve their overall digestive health and also provided much need vitamins and minerals.
Zhao Yao stared at the pot of cat grass basking in this wonderful light but failed to notice any visible changes.
"Hmph, maybe I need to leave the plant here for a longer time," Zhao Yao bent down and placed the pot in a secluded corner of the belly. He intended to check on its growth in a few days' time.
Strangely, Zhao Yao woke up even before his alarm rang the second morning. He instantly reached his arms out for his phone and thought, "Hmph, the mission to protect Hanako should be completed by now!"
It had already been a month since Zhao Yao first met Hanako. Since the previous surprise visit, no one had bothered sending people out for her anymore. Hence, Zhao Yao was able to complete the mission without breaking a sweat.
10 experience points were earned for each day Hanako was kept save. A bonus 100 points were even awarded if Zhao Yao managed to keep her away from harm's way for the entire month.
With the mission completed, Zhao Yao had bagged a total of 400*2 experience points.
"I guess it's time to talk to Hanako and understand her plans from now on," Deep down, Zhao Yao knew perfectly that he could not protect her for the rest of her life.
With that, Zhao Yao decided to break this news during breakfast. With his finger tapping on her shoulders, he asked, "How is it, are there any updates on the Japanese side?"
Hanako's body froze. Immediately, tears welled up in her eyes as she collapsed to her knees and begged Zhao Yao for help, "Boss, do not chase me away! I have no relatives or friends in China! You are the only one I can trust and depend on!"
"Erm, you still have your supercat."
Hanako slid a condescending glare at Lightning, which was resting along the corridor. Suddenly, Lightning dashed out of his spot and came charging towards Mango. With an outburst of static, he had turned himself into a giant furball, scaring the living daylights out of Mango to a chorus of cats' laughter.
Hanako gave an exasperating sigh and muttered, "My cat is a trash. If you really chase me away, the Japanese side could easily capture me with any of their apostles."
Hanako clasped her palms firmly together and stared earnestly into Zhao Yao's eyes, "Zhao Yao, please let me stay here a little while longer. I can help you do some household chores, provide manpower at the café and even take care of the cats. All these for free!"
Hanako only resorted to this out of desperation. Since getting betrayed by her friend previously, there was no one she could trust in Japan. She had no idea what was going on there and could only wait patiently in China for updates.
Coincidentally, Zhao Yao happened to be the strongest and most reliable apostle that she knew. Even though Zhao Yao was so miserly and refused to pay her even an allowance, she did receive free lodging and food from him. Celestial Beats was also so comfortable!
Zhao Yao listened to her when his right brow suddenly shot up, "You said that yourself. I expect good and hard work from you. With me around, no apostle will dare lay a finger on you. One more thing, I'm not giving you an allowance."
"No, no, it's perfectly fine." Hanako lowered her head and shot Zhao Yao a menacing glare, "This Zhao Yao is truly the stingiest and perverted individual I have ever met. Why did God give him such a magnificent power? Wouldn't it be so much better if I was the apostle instead?"
Zhao Yao reported to the café after settling Hanako's concern and managed to find time to pay a visit to the belly.
He was taken aback by the extraordinary growth of the cat grass. It had already grown to approximately 10 centimeters, with fresh green leaves sprouting all over it. Not only that, the leaves had a unique tint to it. It was a jade-like green. Zhao Yao knew that this was something special instantly.
He stood next to the pot and bent right next to it and began observing this plant carefully.
"This height coupled with the rate it has grown at, does this mean that it has already fully matured? However, it takes at least a week or two for a cat grass to fully develop. I never expected it to grow so fast by illuminating it with the Light of Creation." Zhao Yao stroked his chin thoughtfully and muttered, "But I have no idea how effective this plant is."
He immediately plucked out a few leaves to put them to the test.
Coincidentally, Airplane, Sausage, Baozi and Lion Head were just beside him as Zhao Yao placed his freshly plucked cat grass next to them and said, "Hey, have a taste of this new breed of cat grass!"
The four cats started encircling these pile of leaves warily. They would even take a step forward to take a few sniffs at it. Their eyes were filled with curiosity and fear.
The leaves emanated a fresh and unique smell which instantly bought them over. Just the smell of it relieved their body of all the stress and discomfort.
Lion Head was the first to succumb to the temptation. She reached out her paw for a handful of cat grass and forced it into her mouth. A peculiar sound was produced every time she took a bite of it.
"This is so delicious! It has this faint, fresh scent of nature coupled with the warmth of the sun dancing along my tongue! What kind of cat grass is this?"
The other cats could no longer resist when they heard Cat Head's approval. They rushed over and forced a handful into their mouths as well. They immediately broke into laughter and cheers.
"This is so delicious!"
"This cat grass is really the best!"
"So …" Just when Lion Head was in the middle of her sentence, she suddenly began retching.
Her arms were clutched tightly to her stomach as she muttered, "Who placed position in this cat grass … Blargh"
Airplane raised his head and struggled to speak, "Lion Head, you … Blargh"
"Boss, are you okay …" Baozi turned his head around before he himself began retching.
Lion Head's initial retch was like a switch which triggered the remaining supercats to start retching.
Zhao Yao's eyebrows were tightly knitted together as he evaluated the situation, "This cat grass is meant to force the furball out of their bodies. Maybe this plant's power has also been strengthened as well?"
While Zhao Yao was still pondering over the situation, the retching had already evolved into vomiting as the cats began producing an avalanche of cat ball onto the ground.
The feline species depended on their tongue to get rid of foul smell or dirt from the fur. Hence, it was common for them to have fur stuck in their intestines. It was important for them to cleanse the intestines of the fur periodically.
The avalanche of fur produced by the four of them turned the floor into a mess.
Dust Ball, who was outside the belly, recognized what was happening and screamed angrily, "Zhao Yao! What the hell are you doing! Why are they vomiting all over the place!"
Zhao Yao put on a confused look and replied, "I have no idea! They just suddenly began to vomit! This is really weird!"
Dust Ball could only grit her teeth as she made her way to the cat toilet. With her mouth stretched open, she began vomiting the fur out from her mouth.
"Blargh!"
"Blargh!"
"Blargh!"
"Blargh!"
"Blargh! Blargh! Blargh!"
With the pot of cat grass in his hands, Zhao Yao had returned to the café. He placed it on his table and stared at it curiously, "Is this plant's power so strong because of its extraordinary growth? However, the description clearly stated that it would enhance the cat's power, why did it just catalyze the vomiting process?"
While Zhao Yao was still deep in thought, a nose had detected the faint fragrance emanating from the plant. Matcha's eyes beamed with happiness when he saw the pot of beautiful cat grass and took a bite.
Zhao Yao jumped to his feet and roared, "No!"
However, Zhao Yao was still using Dust Ball's power when Matcha had already activated timefreeze. He stared at the pot in front of him and muttered, "How can Zhao Yao hide the good stuff from me?"
"Hmph, this plant tastes really good."
When time resumed, the pot of cat grass was already bald after withstanding the ravages of Matcha's paw.
Zhao Yao rolled his eyes and was bent on punishing Matcha. However, he was alerted to a 10 experience point gained on Matcha's page.
It immediately attracted the supercats' attention as the first ray of light from the Light of Creation saturated their world and illuminated the place.
