Zhao Yao balled his fists and set his mind on the title. Immediately, his BOOK had reflected his resolution.
Mission: Become Cat King of Jiangmen City!
Objective: Compete alongside Matcha and clinch the title of champion.
Reward: 2000 experience points
Punishment: Nil
There were no signs of fear and hesitation when Zhao Yao read through the contents. He was bent on winning and clinching the title.
Zhao Yao stared at his hand and whispered to himself, "From the looks of it, there is still approximately two more weeks before the start of the first round of elimination. I need to find some way to improve my combat prowess." Zhao Yao stroked his chin thoughtfully and murmured, "Firstly, I'll have to upgrade Matcha. However, I can count myself lucky if I even manage to upgrade him by one level in such a short time. Are there any other methods?"
Ideally, Zhao Yao should only use one power during the competition. Also, he should not activate the supercat armor. He understood it. With so many supercats, wielding a wide array of powers, around in the arena, he cannot afford to expose his weakness or limitations in front of all of them.
"Supercat armor is definitely out of the question. Preferably, I should not use more than one power as well. I guess I'll just start training and honing Matcha's power for the time being." Zhao Yao pinched the bridge of his nose and pondered, "The only weakness of timefreeze is its limited offensive capabilities. Without the aid of extradimensional belly, I just have to bring some weapons along."
While Zhao Yao remained deep in thought, Matcha had sneakily crept behind Zhao Yao and craned his neck forward.
"Why did he drag me out in the middle of the night? Now, he's acting all strange again." Matcha stared at the phone clutched tightly in Zhao Yao's hand and read, "Oh, it's the cat king competition?"
Zhao Yao bent next to Matcha and started caressing the back of his head, "Matcha, I'm gonna bring you along as we take down the throne and become the Cat King of Jiangmen Cty."
Matcha simply swept his head disdainfully. He was no ordinary cat; he was a supercat with intelligence. Zhao Yao's word rang an alarm in his head as he responded, "This sounds really dangerous. You might even die if you pit yourself against all these cats."
Zhao Yao knew that fear was the only thing holding Matcha back and comforted him by saying, "What are you afraid of? I'll be beside you throughout the entire competition. I'll be the one throwing the punches. All you have to do is stay at a side and watch."
Matcha did not believe a single word Zhao Yao said and interrupted, "However, you said that you only intended to use my power of timefreeze and not any other powers. Isn't that dangerous? No, no, it's too risky. I'm not competing."
Disappointment sagged through Zhao Yao as he muttered, "I was saying all those things in my head. How did he even hear it?"
His brief thoughts were interrupted by Matcha's scoff as he replied, "We have always communicated telepathically. I'll naturally hear them when your thoughts suddenly turn too intense or strong."
"Huh?" Zhao Yao stared wide-eyed at Matcha as his forehead creased together, "That means you have managed to hear many of my thoughts? What have you heard?"
Matcha nodded his head and replied nonchalantly, "Yes, especially late at night when your thoughts run wild. I always hear you grumble about how lousy you are at PUBG.
Sometimes, you grumble about why you don't have a girlfriend. Other times, you contemplate about whether to buy a sex doll or not but you're afraid that Baiquan or Hanako might see it when the goods are delivered. You even talk about the condoms that are about to expire …"
"Enough!" Zhao Yao slammed his hand across, sealing Matcha's mouth shut. Zhao Yao stared viciously at Matcha before asking, "Who else knows about this other than you?"
"No one! Do you think I'm actually interested in these lame topics? I'm forced to listen to them because of how strong your thoughts are!"
Zhao Yao let out a few coughs with his hand remained wrapped around Matcha's neck, "Remember to never tell anyone about this. I will make you the star cat for the following month and arrange your date with Diana."
"Huh? Isn't that going against the rules?" Matcha asked with his tails wagging excitedly from left to right, "Couldn't you have done this right at the start?"
Zhao Yao continued, "However, what's the point even if you managed to meet her. She is a ragdoll. She would never be interested in an ordinary cat like you."
"But I'm the successor to a café empire, the crown prince to cat nation. You said that the proposal would work if I broach this topic."
"I said that this would allow Catherine to acknowledge your status. However, it won't mean a single thing to Diana. If you don't believe, I can help ask Diana on your behalf."
The next moment, Zhao Yao and Matcha had appeared in the belly with Matcha hidden using illusion. Zhao Yao stopped right in front of Diana before asking, "Diana, how do you find King George?"
"King George? He is pretty strong and powerful." Diana answered listlessly with her eyes glued to the drama, "However he looks like a country bumpkin, a village cat who just came to the city. I always have this fear that he would bring me a rat as a gift."
Matcha clutched his chest tightly as he felt his waning heartbeat. His tail fell to the ground as he screamed in Zhao Yao's head, "Who's gonna bring her a stupid rat? I am the premier Jiangmen Fold. I will never eat meat that is slightly raw."
Zhao Yao petted against Matcha's invisible body and continued prying, "What kind of male cats are you interested in?"
Diana's body froze as a red glimmer flashed across Zhao Yao's eyes, "Obviously, I love the heroes among supercats, the one who can defeat hundreds and thousands of cats in a blink of an eye, the god revered by all. I will marry whoever is crowned as the champion of cat king competition."
Moments later, Zhao Yao had left with Matcha resting in his arms, "See? I told you. You will have Diana as long as you compete and win with me."
However, Matcha remained undecided, "It's still too dangerous. A blade has no eyes. What if we fall victim to a vicious, unreasonable opponent? What if he kills us?"
"There cannot be reward without risk. Do you believe in my abilities? I will risk it all to save you if it comes to it." Zhao Yao continued encouraging Matcha, "If you participate with me and win this competition, you will have more than Diana. All the bitches in Jiangmen City will be your concubines."
"Huh?" Matcha's mouth stretched wide open as he was absorbed in his fantasy world.
"Just take a look at the prizes! As long as you win, you will have all the fortune, title, and bitches that you can dream of." Zhao Yao continued fanning Matcha's egoistic flames, "What you will receive is the entire Jiangmen. Diana will come crawling to you with a snap of your fingers."
In Matcha's dreams, or rather the illusions fed by Zhao Yao, hordes of beautiful cats like Diana came swarming towards him, surrounding him, licking him. It wasn't just ragdolls, there were Persian cats, British Shorthair, American Shorthair, tabby and Main Coons that were three times his size. All of them stared affectionately at him.
Matcha's jaw went slack when he noticed the giant main Coon approaching him. He was shocked beyond words as he mumbled, "D*mn it, is this too much?" However, his lips immediately curled into a smile as he whispered, "But I do like a challenge."
The smile never once evaporated from Matcha's face as he continued fantasizing. Zhao Yao pounced on the opportunity and asked, "How about it? Join me and defeat all our opponents. We will rule over Jiangmen City!"
With the silly smile on his face, Matcha nodded and agreed.
At this moment, a golden exclamation mark appeared on top of Matcha's head, signifying another mission.
Mission: Become the Cat King of Jiangmen City!
Objective: Help Matcha achieve the tile of Cat King of Jiangmen City and earn the admirations of thousands of female cats.
Reward: 2000 experience points
Punishment: Nil
Zhao Yap beamed from ear to ear as he accepted the mission, "Haha, as long as I win this competition, I will earn 2000*2*2 experience points! With the original prize of the competition …" Zhao Yao's heart pounded frantically as he continued daydreaming.
When the clock struck 12, it was finally time for Zhao Yao to consolidate the points earned from the monthly missions. He stared solemnly at his BOOK. The decision he was about to make would heavily affect his performance in the competition.
After deducing the money spent on utility fees, cat food, tidbits, and coffee powder, the month's net profit was RMB 518,363. Hence, he had earned 1000 experience points which could be redeemed by tapping on it, kick-starting the new month's mission.
Firstly, Zhao Yao went to Diamond Hall to purchase the 'X2 Experience Card', before redeeming the reward. Instantaneously, his BOOK had turned to lv5(6278/10000).
His eyes drifted towards Matcha's information which wrote lv5(320/5000).
He immediately transferred 4680 points to Matcha upgrading him to lv6.
Zhao Yao balled his fists and set his mind on the title. Immediately, his BOOK had reflected his resolution.
