episode_0126

Fresh blood was dripping from Bir’s gently shaking head.

The new cat that appeared before my eyes, Suin, had the ability to teleport just like Cheshire.

However, unlike Cheshire, who had his own firm philosophy and did not kill people indiscriminately, this cat bitch had no hesitation in killing people.

Kkook–.

The banshee latched onto my arm.

“Director, this is… . Is this a planned situation?”

“…No.”

A banshee trembling slightly. Seeing as he didn’t tell me any relevant information, I thought it was Banshee’s first time seeing that cat.

“Nyahaha. Human, is your body frozen in fear~?”

The cat bitch suddenly appeared next to me and poked my cheek. I felt the soft texture of a cat’s paw. Unlike Cheshire, who was human except for her ears, this woman even had cat hands.

“……What do you want?”

“Nya~? It’s wrong. Furthermore, it’s not what you want, it’s what you want.”

“What?”

What kind of bullshit, no, it’s cat talk.

“Naa can give you true freedom as a gift~. Isn’t it tempting~?”

True freedom?

Are you saying that you can return me to my original world?

“Tell me more. What exactly is that freedom?”

“Nyahaha. True freedom is being able to go anywhere and move anything–.”

Kang–!

Philia’s sword suddenly appeared and draped over the cat’s neck.

Did Philia, who realized the situation, come rushing over? But her sword was blocked so easily. And that’s with just one cat’s nail.

“The power of self, it is free foot manure.”

The cat finished what he had been saying.

and,

Shook–.

Philia’s knife, which was touching the tip of her fingernail, disappeared.

Embarrassed, Philia quickly widened the distance, but it was pointless. The cat had already grabbed Philia’s back and cut off her head.

Philia’s body, which had lost its head, collapsed with blood pouring out of its neck, and the cat teleported in front of me and shook its head, which was dripping blood again.

“How do you feel~? My power is the best~.”

“……It’s different from what I expected.”

“Nya~? Don’t you know the greatness of my power? If you have this power, anything is possible~.”

It’s not wrong. The reason Cheshire was able to become so infamous in the empire, and the reason he has never been caught, is because of teleportation.

But what I was looking forward to was escaping this damn game. It would be nice to have teleportation, but it couldn’t be more attractive than escaping from a game.

Really, how could a way to escape from the game come out so suddenly? You have to hope for what you want.

‘Is this more dangerous than that?’

Just teleportation alone is extremely dangerous, but to physically overwhelm Philia?

Where on earth was this monster hiding and has it come out now? Could it be that the game created something that didn’t exist again to suppress me?

“Yes, I know that the power or something is amazing. So who are you? What is he doing, giving me strength as a gift?”

“Nyahaha~. Are you curious about Naa~?”

The cat spun around in place.

Then he spread his arms wide and pushed out his chest.

“Naa is Catsy. It’s a very, very cute, lovely, great and magical cat~. People call me Myo or Myo, but I wish they would call me Catsy~.”

“Shinmyo… ? What, can you become a god?”

“God?”

Catsy frowned.

“God and all, Naa is not interested in such things. Unlike other guys, Naa likes to live happily~.”

I was able to find out a lot from her reaction.

‘It’s not that I deny the word ‘God’ or that I don’t know anything about it, but I said it as if it was annoying and that I wasn’t interested. And the other guys… .’

While I was lost in thought, Katsy suddenly popped her head in.

“Zeke Human. So, are you going to sign a contract with Naa~?”

“Contract?”

“Wow–.”

Catsy gagged a few times, then pulled out a purple gem from her mouth. It was a perfectly identical gem to Karjen’s contract stone, with only a different color.

‘…That’s what it was.’

The game settings, which had been a mess in my head, were connected together like a puzzle. There are still questions, but we can think about them later.

“Now. Swallow this~.”

Katsy pushes the contract stone into my tightly closed mouth. Maybe it’s because I saw you nauseous earlier, but I feel a little dirty.

Rather, I already signed a contract with Karjen. Is it possible to sign a double contract?

I had no intention of signing a contract with this crazy bitch in the first place, but I couldn’t control my curiosity and asked.

“Wait a minute. I already signed a contract with another guy? Does it still matter?”

“Are you?”

Katsy tilted her head and said,

Deeply—.

He suddenly stuck his hand into my abdomen.

“Fuck… .”

“Did you find it here~.”

Cathy was holding Karjen’s contract stone in her hand, which she pulled out after rummaging through the intestines.

I lost all my strength, and thanks to Banshee’s help, I was able to avoid falling.

“Director… . This is okay, right… ?”

Banshee whispers in a trembling voice, takes out a handkerchief and stops the bleeding.

Perhaps it was because Katsy had been ignoring her from earlier, but she was acting cautiously as much as possible to avoid being caught.

“Nyahaha~. I wondered what kind of guy he was, but as expected, he was a rude little bitch. How dare you go forward and make a contract with the person you wanted. Eight~.”

Jejeok –.

Karjen’s contract stone began to crack,

Pagak–.

It soon broke down and turned into powder.

I heard there is a penalty if that thing breaks.

Well, you don’t have to worry about it since you have to retry anyway.

“Now. Now swallow it.”

“…Fuck. After all, I left a hole in the boat… ?”

“If I sign with Naa, those wounds will heal quickly~.”

Katsy started shoving the contract stone into my mouth again.

Considering that it was not done through coercion, the rule that a contract cannot be concluded by force seemed to be the same as Karjen’s.

“Stupid bitch… . If you’re going to sign a contract, you have to tell me the terms first… . Are you really going to lend me your power without anything in return?”

“Nya? Is it natural? Naa is a cat that values freedom. So there is no compensation for lending your power. Zeke: People can live freely as they want~.”

what? Are you lending this fraudulent power without compensation?

Where else in the world can you find such a good contract? It’s 100% a scam.

“If there was no reward, why did you kill Cheshire?”

At that time, the banshee who was watching silently from the side intervened.

Catsy stared blankly at the banshee for a moment, then tilted her head.

“? I heard there was something strange, was there another human? Is this all weird? Are humans not like humans?”

Can a banshee sense an alter ego? No, looking at Catsy’s reaction, on the contrary, it seems like the clones are out of the detection range and have only just noticed their existence.

“Please answer. Why did you kill Cheshire?”

Banshee speaks strongly, desperately suppressing her trembling voice. Cathy smiled sinisterly at this.

“Nyahahaha. It’s not that I killed it, it’s that it’s dead. Naa simply retrieved the contract stone, and it’s the fault of humans being weak.”

What kind of crazy logic is that?

‘Karyen retrieved the contract stone so that it wouldn’t cause any problems to her body?’

This crazy cat had a more broken personality than Karjen. At least Karjen didn’t treat humans as ‘food’ or ‘livestock’ and kill them needlessly.

What should I do instead?

First of all, it seems like it’s confirmed that Katsy will come. If they meet alone, they can save Bir and the other heroines.

Considering that Cheshire doesn’t get a game over notification right away, you can save it by quickly treating it with Elixir.

Ultimately, what you have to decide is whether to sign a contract or not.

‘If you say you don’t sign the contract, it’s obvious they’ll kill you.’

To have a headache.

“Nya~. If this continues, Zeke will die. If you want to live, sign a contract with Naa quickly~.”

To sign a contract or not.

What should I choose?

Of course, the choice I will choose is obvious.

First, I bought an elixir from the store. There is no need to save points if you are going to retry anyway.

“Nya~? It’s amazing magic~.”

Katsy looked at the elixir that suddenly appeared and applauded as if I had done magic.

Ignoring Catsy, I rammed the elixir down her throat.

“The wound… .”

The banshee who was trying to stop the bleeding immediately noticed what had happened and muttered a little in admiration.

All my wounds recovered, but I didn’t bother to get up. It gets annoying if you wake up and end up with a hole again.

“Hey, cat. Let me ask you just one question.”

“Nya?”

“I need a soul from God? If I kill you, will your soul come out?”

“……”

Whether to sign a contract or not.

Why should I choose between these two?

If you want to live, sign a contract?

How dare a cat force me to make a choice?

Regardless of whether the opponent is a god or something else, I am always the one who takes the lead.

“Nyahahaha. Are you going to kill Naa~? It’s a funny joke~.”

“Answer only when asked. Then I will choose too. If I kill you, will my soul come out?”

“……Nyaha. Wrong? As long as the soul in my body is not destroyed, I will not die.”

Tuk-tuk. Catsy lightly taps her chest with her fist.

Is there a soul instead of a heart?

“Anyway, you can kill me?”

“Nyahahaha. Are you seriously planning to kill Naa? Give up? ‘Humans on earth’ cannot kill Naa. Even if you have tremendous power, it is impossible to go against the truth of the world.”

The truth of the world. Well, it’s a game world, so if it’s set by system rules, it’s probably impossible to go against it.

Because there are actually a few guys that are not far behind.

Karjen or the monarchs… .

But what is certain is that even if you are not behind, there are many ways to neutralize it. What I need in the first place is the soul, so there is no need to kill it.

‘But wouldn’t it be a bad thing to use the soul of a wayward person like Catsy?’

If the soul of a god is used to seal a monarch, does the ruler or a god hold the initiative? I think either the Frost Witch or Catsy would be shit.

“Nyaa! Choose whether to sign a contract quickly!”

“Oh, that’s right. I have to answer.”

I put my hands in my pockets. Katsy tilted her head at my actions and gently waggled her tail.

“My answer is this.”

He took out his hand and held it out towards Katsy.

“……Nyaa?”

Oh, I’m upset.

You know that middle finger is an insult, right?

“A shameless bastard. Just wait. I’ll chew up everything except your soul.”

“Nyahahaha… . Nyahahahaha!!”

Katsy bursts out laughing as if it was ridiculous.

“Such obvious bravado. I feel sorry for you~.”

Katsy laughed so hard that she wiped away the tears that leaked out.

“Hehehe. Who says they feel sorry for someone… .”

This time the banshee began to sneer in an arrogant manner.

“It’s you who feels sorry for me, Mr. Cat. It was so foolish of me to bother Mr. Zeke and urge him to order… .”

“Nya~?”

“I will pray for your peace in advance. At that time, I wouldn’t have known this fact.”

“Nya, if you’re going to tell a joke, make it fun. It’s not even funny anymore.”

“A joke? Your future is gone, is this a joke? Please kneel down right now and swear that you will obey Zeke. Then maybe you can show me at least some mercy?”

Catsy’s face rotted. When the guy who was always smiling makes a face like that, the mood changes completely.

“It’s over now. You’re just making jokes that aren’t funny, and the contract is a no-go on my part.”

Katsy spoke in a voice that had lost all laughter and raised her fingernails.

Kwaak–.

Banshee grabbed my hand, and a tremor ran through it. It’s worth being afraid of. Even if I die, I can come back to life with a retry, but I’m not a banshee.

No matter how much a banshee knows about my abilities, who would easily accept me if I told them to die without worrying that they would be living well in a parallel world?

I can’t believe I’m talking to Katsy about such a topic. He’s also good.

I helped you a lot this time, so I guess I’ll treat you kindly.

Cheap–.

Cathy waved her hand as if not allowing any further thoughts.

[Game over. Restart from the last save point.]
