122 Molding Skins ?

"Zhao Yao Zhao Yao, you forgot about my eyes." Roly Poly gently wagged his tail back and forth as he blinked seductively at Zhao Yao. "Make my eyes look bigger!"

"You still want to make it bigger? Any bigger and they'll pop out of their sockets." Zhao Yao responded but still placed his hand on Roly Poly's head, touched his face and made his eyes look bigger under his illusion.

As Roly Poly began to look cuter after several rounds of modification and fine tweaking, Spirit cat stared in awe and couldn't wait to have a try at it.

The flat-faced Shorthair thought to himself, "I always wanted to make my nose look sharper."

Zhao Yao was finally done with Roly Poly's skin. He placed Roly Poly on the floor and slapped his butt as he said, "We're done here, you'll definitely be the ladykiller of the night." Roly Poly looked into the mirror and admired himself vainly.

Matcha was also observing this entire time. He eagerly rushed to Zhao Yao and exclaimed as he wagged his tail happily, "Zhao Yao Zhao Yao! I want a skin too!"

As Zhao Yao saw the pile of sh*t coming straight at him, he removed the illusion on Matcha immediately. But just as Matcha was about to leap into Zhao Yao's embrace, a black shadow brushed past Matcha and gave him a kick on his nose as it hopped into Zhao Yao's arms.

It was none other than Dust Ball. Matcha rubbed his nose in pain as he slapped his tail repeatedly on the floor in frustration.

"Damn it! Are you planning to destroy my nose? Do you have any idea how expensive a Jiangmen Fold's nose is? You can't even afford it if you destroy it, dirty trash."

Dust Ball ignored Matcha and stared at Zhao Yao with a yearning look. "Zhao Yao Zhao Yao, transform me into something big and fearsome, please! I want to look mighty strong and really menacing. I heard humans, especially girls, like cats like that?"

Zhao Yai curled his lips and asked, "Who said so?"

"I eavesdropped on the conversation between several girls and I heard them say it."

A crisp feminine voice rang in Zhao Yao's mind as Dust Ball moved Zhao Yao's computer mouse and clicked on a video.

"Look! This cat looks not too bad!"

Zhao Yao watched the video and compared its size with Dust Ball's petite body as he replied, "Damn it, isn't this a Siberian Tiger! How can I even transform you into that tiger? Do you want me to give you an armor-plated exoskeleton? There are limitations to my illusion so don't expect so much from me."

Dust Ball grumpily curled her lips as she moved the cursor to click on another video. "What about this?"

"This is a lion... If I transform you into this, I'll really go to jail."

"This one?"

"You look exactly like it, don't you? That is a godd*mned bear, who would even dare to step into the cafe?" Zhao Yao replied with a sarcastic tone.

As the animals Dust Ball picked got bigger and bigger, Zhao Yao decided to offer her a suggestion instead and picked a leopard cat.

"This suits you. It's a leopard cat."

"Alright then..." Dust Ball agreed unwillingly and threw in a request. "In that case, can I have the Chinese character 'Wang' imprinted on my head as my fur pattern?"

"No way, since when do cats even look like that!"

This time, Dust Ball yelled in anger. "You refuse to do this and that so what can I even do? And now, you even reject my idea of having a 'Wang' Character on my head! I swear I'll bite you to death!"

As Dust Ball threw a tantrum, Zhao Yao secretly pulled out a piece of catmint and showed it to Dust Ball. As expected, Dust Ball started to drool and roll her eyes about as she whined in Zhao Yao's embrace, yearning for the catmint.

Zhao Yao shook his head helplessly as he started to create the skin for Dust Ball. He constantly referred to the leopard cat in the video and placed a lot of emphasis on the details. With a sweep of the hand, Zhao Yao brushed his hand across Dust Ball's back and Dust Ball's back was suddenly covered with spotty patterns.

Zhao Yao used the video as a reference as he continued to make fine modifications to the color and proportion.

Although Dust Ball was small in size, her body proportion made it easy to create a skin for her. Her size was similar to a young kitten and people could easily misjudge her for an adolescent cat, making her a perfect candidate to take on the form of a young leopard cat.

After some time, a delicate-looking leopard cat whose size is similar to Dust Ball appeared in Zhao Yao's arms. It looked like a three-month-old kitten but there was something unique about it; there was a streak of black fur forming the Chinese character 'Wang' on its forehead which stood out from its golden fur.

Dust Ball was satisfied with his new intimidating look and nodded happily, "Not bad not bad! Can you make me look taller?"

"I'm afraid not. Blame yourself for being this short." Zhao Yao rejected her request as he had to ensure that there was no contradiction between the way Dust Ball looked and how Dust Ball felt to the touch.

As Dust Ball stomped away moodily, Matcha jumped on to Zhao Yao's lap and closed his eyes as he asked, "Doc, is the plastic surgery painless? Could you put me under full body anesthesia?"

Zhao Yao rolled his eyes and responded, "Cut your crap."

"I heard that girls love Lu Han for his pretty looking lips. Can you make me a mouth that looks like Lu Han's?" Matcha requested.

Zhao Yao slapped Matcha on his face and replied, "Shut up."

Zhao Yao stroked Matcha's fur and realized that his fur wasn't as long as Roly Poly's fur. Roly Poly could pose as a ragdoll but in Matcha's case, he could only pose as a shorthair.

Zhao Yao recalled that Matcha could fold his ears and decided to turn him into an orange Scottish Fold.

He stroked Matcha's face and molded it with force as he spoke, "Cats with round faces are just so adorable." He continued to stretch Matcha's face as it became rounder and rounder. However, though his face did become rounder visually, it didn't feel like it when he tried to touch it.

Elizabeth's illusion power could not imitate the sense of touch. Unfortunately, Matcha's natural face shape was more triangular than it was round. Hence, his face really did not feel like his new round face.

Matcha seemed discontented with his new looks and tapped on Zhao Yao's hand as he asked, "Doc, can you make my chin shaper? I heard customers saying that a sharp chin could add ten points to how you look."

"Sharpen your chin?"

Zhao Yao stroked his chin and came to a sudden realization. "Makes sense."

Zhao Yao walked away and came back with a green beanie in his hands. He tied the beanie around Matcha's face in an attempt to make his face look rounder. Actually, Zhao Yao bought this beanie for Matcha long ago but Matcha refused to wear it simply because he didn't like it.

With the beanie wrapped around his face, Matcha's face did become wider and rounder. Fortunately, the texture of the beanie felt very similar to Matcha's fur which makes it perfect for imitation.

Zhao Yao continued to focus on creating the illusion with great detail. With the help of the beanie, Matcha finally turned into a round-faced cat and there was no contradiction between his looks and how he felt to the touch.

Matcha looked in the mirror and requested, "Hmm... I want to make my cheekbones look more pronounced. Just stuff in a few pieces of tissue paper into the beanie."

Zhao Yao slapped Matcha's head and replied, "Stop imitating the customers and speak like a cat."

However, Zhao Yao still went to retrieve some tissue paper and stuffed them into Matcha's beanie. He adjusted the beanie and made Matcha's cheeks look even rounder in order to match his new face.

"Not too bad Doctor Zhao! I think I look so much cuter now. Let's take a picture together! I'll call my sisters over next time." Matcha spoke in front of the mirror.

"Shut up, didn't I tell you to stop imitating how people speak?"
