Chapter 294: 294, Petting a Cat (Making up for leave update 2/2)_1
Whether it was due to being too full or too young, Morning Star closed her eyes, intending to drift off to sleep in Alyssa’s arms after finishing her crystal gem.
But at this moment, Su Yu hurriedly woke her, “Morning Star, don’t rush to sleep, would you like to visit our world?”
“Your world? What do you mean by your world?” Morning Star looked bewildered.
When Su Yu was explaining to Alyssa and Tina before, Morning Star had yet to emerge from the [Dream Realm] (a light green portal), so she did not hear Su Yu’s words.
“Alright, it’s like this…” Su Yu repeated what he had told Tina.
Morning Star’s eyes widened with amazement, feeling energetic and sleepless after hearing Su Yu’s explanation.
An extraordinary otherworld! She was actually qualified to visit it?!
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go now!” Morning Star leaped out of Alyssa’s arms and landed on Su Yu’s shoulder.
“Alright.” Su Yu used his will to store Morning Star in the pet space. She turned into a beam of starlight and disappeared from his shoulder.
He then turned to Alyssa and Tina, “I will be back soon after leaving for a bit. It could be as short as half an hour or as long as one to two hours.”
“Okay, I will wait for you.” Alyssa nodded and sat down on the seat in front of the vanity.
“Nemesis, be careful,” Tina also said.
“Okay, I will.”
After saying this, Su Yu chose to log off the game.
In the real world.
Su Yu took off his gaming helmet and got up off the sofa.
He first stretched a bit and determined that nothing felt amiss, apart from the rhombus-shaped rune he felt deep between his brows. This rune was the one that fused with him during the equal contract with Morning Star.
Perhaps with this rune, he could summon Morning Star.
He called upon all his mana and channeled it into this rune.
The rune glowed with a deep blue light.
Not long after, a six-pointed star array, glowing like a star, appeared between Su Yu’s eyebrows, reflecting onto the floor.
In the center of the star array on the floor, a “meow~”.
Accompanied by the clear sound of a kitten, Morning Star leapt from the array, standing on the cold floor tiles.
After coming to this world, she first inspected her surroundings, curiously looking at everything around her.
She then hopped onto Su Yu’s bed, inspecting her surroundings while asking, “Nemesis, is this where you live?”
“Yes!” Su Yu replied with a smile.
“This place is too small. You’re not a hermit crab, are you?” Morning Star complained.
Su Yu: “…cough, it’s actually enough space for one person.”
“Is it though?” Morning Star was very skeptical.
But she didn’t dwell on the matter too much.
Morning Star hopped onto the balcony to appreciate the outside view.
It was currently three in the afternoon, and since Su Yu lived on the 9th floor, he had a clear view of the city from a distance.
Morning Star, fixedly staring at the tall buildings outside, had a look of curiosity:
“Nemesis, why are the buildings here so tall? Have you guys mastered some kind of Earth magic?”
“What are those moving black and white boxes on the ground?”
“A strong character is passing by in the sky… no, it’s not. Is that some kind of metal Warcraft?”
Morning Star excitedly said.
However, she was not satisfied with such a single angle and turned to ask Su Yu, “Nemesis, can you take me out for a walk now?”
“Now is not the time.” Su Yu shook his head, “The princess and Tina are still waiting for us. We should at least go back and tell them before we go out.”
“That’s true.” Morning Star turned back to continue enjoying the outside view.
Just then, Su Yu suddenly had an idea and said to Morning Star, “Morning Star, can I touch you?”
[Archer] and [Summoner] can summon their pets in reality, but the pet is only a spiritual energy illusion. So Su Yu wanted to try touching Morning Star to see if she was substantial or a spiritual illusion.
“What are you doing?! Stay away!” Morning Star jumped back onto the bed, pulled the blanket over her body, then turned to give him a wary look.
Could it be that because there are no other people around, Nemesis has revealed his true intentions?
But she is just a cat, not the human form unlocked after level 10, could it be that Nemesis has become so desperate that he won’t even let a cat go?
“No, you misunderstood,” a black line appeared on Su Yu’s forehead as he briefly described the situation of [Hunter] and [Summoner] professions.
After hearing, Morning Star tilted her head and pondered.
Then she expressed her understanding. “Alright, you can touch me… hold on!”
Seeing Su Yu’s hand reaching toward her, she immediately stopped him.
“What’s wrong now?” Su Yu asked, puzzled.
“No touching my tail!” Morning Star sternly warned.
“Okay.” Another black line appears on Su Yu’s forehead.
But just when Su Yu’s hand was about half a meter away from Morning Star, she twisted her body and stopped him again: “Wait!”
“What is it now?”
“No touching my stomach or lower body!” Morning Star emphasized.
Su Yu: “…okay.”
Another black line appeared on his forehead.
“Wait! Legs are also off-limits, only my head can be touched.”
A fourth black line appeared.
“Since you won’t let me touch you, I’ll do it anyway!”
Su Yu’s stubbornness kicked in and disregarding her protest, he threw himself onto the bed and started vigorously petting Morning Star.
He knew Morning Star’s personality very well.
When he was doing the first half of the princess’s main storyline, Morning Star, in her deer form, initially didn’t let him ride her.
But ever since the 14th cycle of the mainline when Su Yu rode her once, Morning Star completely let go. During the subsequent main storylines, she let him ride her seven or eight times, even proactively coming over to let him ride her and help him complete many difficult tasks.
It was the same now. On the surface, Morning Star was refusing to be petted, but as long as Su Yu gave her a good rubbing once, she would no longer have any psychological barriers in the future.
How could the current Morning Star, who was only a level 2 kitten, escape from Su Yu, the level 60 mage?
She was constantly transforming in Su Yu’s hands, meowing incessantly due to his relentless petting.
But considering Morning Star was still a newborn kitten, Su Yu’s touch was much gentler.
At first, Morning Star still seemed to struggle a little.
But towards the end, just as Su Yu had predicted, not only did Morning Star stop resisting, she even began to enjoy Su Yu’s strokes and was comfortably closing her eyes.
Afterwards, Morning Star laid in Su Yu’s arms, rubbing her forehead against his chest, “Human, this time I will spare you considering your childish ignorance. But don’t do that again, got it?”
“Understood.” Su Yu replied.
It had to be said, Morning Star’s fur was very smooth, and it felt great to pet. This indirectly proved that she had physically entered this world and was not just an illusion.
He looked at the time and found that he had been offline for about 5 minutes, which calculated in game time would be approximately an hour. The princess and Tina must be anxiously waiting by now!
So Su Yu said to Morning Star: “Alright, we will go back now. After I let Alyssa know, I’ll take you around to explore our world.”
Without waiting for Morning Star’s response, Su Yu put her back into the pet space, put on his helmet, and logged back into the game.
