Am I A God?

Ishida instructed, “I have an important mission on hand. Sato and Onitsuka, I’ll leave it to the both of you to capture those two cats.”

Sato’s hands squeezed into tight fists as his temples throbbed with rage, “Lord Ishida, do not worry. I’ll definitely bring those d*mned cats back here.”

Ishida nodded along as the plan unfolded in his head. It was a risky move. This might allow the Chinese government apostles to grab hold of some intel on him.

However, they would only learn about Sato’s abilities if it came down to a face-to-face confrontation. Furthermore, this was just a fraction of Kagemaru’s true power.

Meanwhile, with Sato distracting them from him, this provided Ishida a much-needed maneuver space to complete his mission.

…

On the other hand, Zhao Yao continued with what he had originally planned. For the rest of the night, Ares and Dust Ball managed to accumulate 200 and 150 experience points respectively.

Even though this figure might seem insignificant relative to the ones Zhao Yao earned using his ‘X2 Exp Card’, it was still a promising start for the supercats.

Once back in their belly abode, the two exhausted supercats immediately collapsed to the floor as they struggled to keep their eyes open. The missions had taken a toll on them. Zhao Yao reached his arm forward and ran his fingers through their silky fur and said, “Good job, Ares and Dust Ball. Both of you have truly grown. From now on, I allow the both of you to go out on your own to complete missions. However, you can never leave this place alone. If you face some problems that both of you cannot overcome, remember to call for me …”

Halfway into his rambling, Zhao Yao suddenly shut his lips together. In front of him, Dust Ball had already fallen asleep as her chest rose and fell with every breath she took.

Similarly, Ares was asleep with his body scrunched into a ball and his head buried in his chest. Both of them simply looked so adorable.

A smile appeared on Zhao Yao’s face as he shook his head. He gave a gentle pat on the two cats’ back before carrying them into a corner of the belly.

Hence, Zhao Yao had a new task to complete over the next few days. Other than his daily missions, monitoring Sphynx Cat’s training, he also had to monitor Ares and Dust Ball’s progress. If this worked, Zhao Yao could essentially earn experience points without taking a single step out of his apartment. However, unbeknownst to them, Sato was also busy trying to find Ares and Dust Ball to exact his revenge.

However, Zhao Yao did enjoy a significantly more sedentary lifestyle, allowing him to engage in activities such as …

“Be careful when crawling up that hill. He is definitely hiding inside that small cabin.” Zhao Yao cautioned with his forehead furrowed together.

Matcha and Rice Cake, which sat beside him, nodded their heads to his words and replied, “But I can’t see him.”

“Do not worry, just camp outside. It’s only a matter of time before he comes out.” Zhao Yao instructed, “Be careful. Don’t die on me.”

Elizabeth, which sat behind Zhao Yao, stared at her computer screen so intently with her lips slightly parted.

Currently, Zhao Yao was leading their four-man squad on a PUBG mission. There were only 10 players left on the map. This was the closest they had ever been to a chicken dinner.

Suddenly, a giant rifle, the size of the cabin, appeared out of nowhere, with the crosshair aiming straight at Zhao Yao and gang.

“D*mn it!” Zhao Yao threw his fists against his table and roared, “Report him! Report this idiot! How dare he use that hack!”

This was rather ironic. Zhao Yao only managed to climb to this stage of the game with that exact hack. Hence, it was just a taste of his medicine.

However, it was still rather devastating. With their only shot at a chicken dinner vaporizing into thin air, Zhao Yao instantly lost all motivation to continue the game. He threw his laptop towards Roly Poly and shouted, “Roly Poly, you can play instead.”

Despite the genial smile appearing on Roly Poly’s face, he was actually dissing Zhao Yao in his head, “You only return me my laptop when you are sick of losing.”

Meanwhile, both Matcha and Rice Cake had pounced onto Zhao Yao’s calf as they exclaimed, “What’s that hack just now?”

“I want that hack as well!”

“Zhao Yao, can you please help me download that hack?”

Zhao Yao was completely indifferent to their incessant pestering. He simply shook them off before retreating to his bedroom. However, Matcha was not about to give up. He sprang onto Zhao Yao’s bed and began to roll from one corner to another before exclaiming, “I want the hack! I want the hack! I want the hack!”

Zhao Yao continued to turn a deaf ear to Matcha’s shouting. He would never allow the cats to use any sorts of hack. If their accounts were banned because of it, the money used to purchase the game would instantly go down the drain!

“Speaking of which, it’s already the end of the month tomorrow. Time to harvest some experience points again! I might as well take this time to plan which cats to upgrade.”

…

Within the campus of Jiangmen University, a sedan had slowly come to a halt at the entrance of the college.

The boss of a peer-to-peer borrowing platform, Matsuo, peered out of his heavily tinted windows only to see a large crowd of students gathered outside. Stacks of pamphlets flew out of their hands as they chanted their slogans to emphasize the danger of such platforms.

Matsuo’s subordinate looked towards him and remarked, “Boss, I think the students have blown the entire situation out of proportion.”

Matsuo nodded his head calmly. If it was just an ordinary protest organized by regular students, nothing would have happened. However, they were apostles and they had attracted the attention of the government agencies. Now, even the local news network had come over to report the situation.

Matsuo had never expected his organization to attract such unwanted attention. However, the media had already dissected the problem from the worst possible angle, making things extremely knotty.

“Apostles …” Matsuo’s eyes squinted into a hard line as he commented, “Do they actually regard themselves as heroes?”

His eyes began to scan across the group of apostles gathered for the protest. Standing in the middle was none other than Zhao Xue.

Matsuo was not the only one observing the situation. Hiding in the shadows beneath the eaves of the building was Ishida. He was also greeted by the same sight. However, he had also noticed Matsuo hiding inside his car.

Originally, Ishida planned to act when Zhao Xue was alone and vulnerable. However, he had never expected the protest to take place today and Matsuo’s sudden appearance.

“I guess Zhao Xue had joined a cute little apostle organization.” Ishida muttered with a smirk on his face, “However, Matsuo is not going to let things slide on his side. Luckily for me, this saves me the trouble of making the first move. I will just wait for Matsuo before swooping in for the final kill.”

With that satisfying thought in his head, Ishida’s grin had widened into a wide smile. He had already submerged into his shadows and disappeared into thin air.

That night, a group of college students was gathered in a private function room within a restaurant at the perimeters of the school compound. They were in the midst of a heated discussion.

“We must expose the man behind this evil peer-to-peer lending platform!”

“Haha, my cousin told me that she had already edited the footage from the rally just now. We might even appear on news.”

“Really? When are they going to broadcast it?”

“We are not doing this for the sake of appearing on TV. We are doing this to rid the world of such vile and evil man!”

“Yes! We cannot allow this evil lending platform to continue ravaging the lives of these innocent victims!”

Each word which came out of the student’s mouth were like fuel stoking up their enraged emotions.

Meanwhile, Zhao Xue was just sitting in the corner, burying her head in all the food. She was indifferent to the discussion as her chopsticks darted across the dining table and a flood of food disappeared into her mouth.

Since borrowing Sphynx Cat’s power to train, her appetite had increased exponentially. If not for the free meal at the end of the rally, she wouldn’t even have participated.

Beside Zhao Xue sat a familiar figure – Meng Hao.

Meng Hao had earned quite a reputation for himself, as the human beast hybrid, during his performance in the cat king competition.

However, his performance was thoroughly outshone by Explosive Man, Yue Shan, Butcher and the Headless Horseman at the later stage of the competition. This showed him just how weak he was relative to the other apostles.

Hence, he gave up his dreams of conquering the world of superpower and decided to establish a supercat and apostle organization in his school instead.

A wide grin appeared on his face when he noticed Zhao Xue gobbling down all the food and remarked, “Hey, take it easy. There’s still more food waiting for us.”
