763 Cruelty and Making Money ?

The tail, full of bone spurs, looked alive as it jumped around after landing on the ground. Then it jumped to Maine Coon's legs, where it merged with his body.

Project X patted Maine Coon's head and said gently, "It's alright. This man has some abilities. It is normal if you are defeated."

Kaede Hattori ignored the Maine Coon and turned to look at Project X, who had come out of nowhere. He said grimly, "What… kind of a creature are you?"

He felt strongly oppressed after seeing this half-human, half-feline creature, like a rat seeing a cat or a little chicken encountering a wolf.

Kaede Hattori, who possessed the Divine Rays of Terror, felt an instinctive fear.

Meow!!! Even Sakura, who was at his feet, purred with apprehension, her fur standing up.

Project X caressed the head of Maine Coon, from whose back dozens of tentacles and sharp claws protruded. The bone spurs on the tail shrunk back inside and the cat had become a huge Maine Coon, who knelt at one side licking his paws.

Project X turned to look at the purring Sakura and raised up his paw to beckon her to keep quiet.

Sakura kept quiet and wagged her tail restlessly. She didn't make any other sounds.

Project X looked at Kaede Hattori and said, "What do you think… is the real fear?"

As Kaede Hattori was about to answer, his eyes saw darkness and he felt dizzy. When he opened his eyes, he felt a debilitating weakness affecting his whole body.

"What happened?"

"Why… do I feel so weak?"

He lifted his head, surveyed the surroundings and discovered that he had fallen in a small alley. A man's figure, who was squatting nearby, made popping sounds.

"Hey!" Kaede Hattori raised his hand to catch his attention and discovered he was meowing and his hand was a soft paw.

"What happened?"

"Have I turned into a cat?"

The squatting man turned his head, looked excitedly at Kaede Hattori and said, "Don't be impatient. It will be your turn soon."

Kaede Hattori looked behind his back and saw a bloody female cat lying on the ground. Her limbs were contorted and her eyes popped out from her head. She abruptly pounced on his calves but only managed to bite his trousers.

The female cat continued biting and struggled feebly.

The man was antagonized and he lifted a rock and smashed it on her body.

He stood up and walked towards Kaede Hattori.

"D*mn! Is he abusing cats?"

"What is he going to do next? Kill me?"

"What about my Divine Rays of Terror? Where is Sakura?"

Kaede Hattori tried all his might to activate his superpower. He wanted to stand up and run. Instead he rolled over and moved a few centimeters.

He realized that he was a newborn kitten, barely the size of a palm, unable to stand up or run. For him, activating superpower was out of the question.

The approaching man looked menacingly larger. He looked almost like a giant and his every step shook the ground.

The man bent his back and grabbed Kaede Hattori.

Kaede Hattori used all his strength to move his body but only moved by a few centimeters. He looked dejectedly at the palm approach, brushed his body, and grab a kitten next to him.

Bam! The kitten was thrown up the sky and made to land on the mud floor.

The kitten convulsed in the mud before it was kicked and sent flying over a distance of more than ten meters. A boundless fear arose in Kaede Hattori.

It was the instinctive and great fear that arises in all lives when faced with imminent death.

"Hahahaha, it's your turn."

The man grabbed Kaede Hattori, who struggled violently with his four limbs to be free of his palm. However, the man's palm had the weight of a gigantic mountain that a little kitten could not push off.

He clawed at the man's hand but his new claws were unable to break the man's skin.

He was extremely weak. Even a rat could bite him to death so a human could do him a lot more harm.

"Why… why do you want to kill me?…"

He was shrouded by a deep sense of hopelessness and his fear of death was amplified by the instinctive need for survival.

"Why do you want to kill me?"

After he was tossed up and he gradually plummeted to the ground, the fear increased exponentially. When he landed with a loud bang, excruciating pain, hopelessness, and fear exploded within his body.

Boom!

When Kaede Hattori recovered from his daze, he was standing on the balcony, his body wet from the cold sweat. Project X, who was standing before him, came out of nowhere. His feline face smiling merrily at him as he said, "The most terrifying thing in the world are not illusory monsters but from the cruelty of reality."

Kaede Hattori was still feeling that great sense of hopelessness and shuddered as he said, "Who are you?"

Project X's paws slowly touched Kaede Hattori's head, his pupils contracting to a single line as he uttered grimly, "I… am your greatest fear."

In the Cat Wonderland, Milk Tea's head was covered by a towel and his four paws were wearing small shoes as he pushed the cleaning cloth and ran around polishing the floor tiles in the main hall.

Huff and puff!

After a hard time cleaning half of the hall, he paused for a while, panting heavily. Yellow Mud, who was similarly dressed, held a bowl of water in his mouth and said, "Drink some water to prevent heat stroke in this warm weather."

Milk Tea put his tiny head into the bowl and started gulping the water.

He abruptly lifted his head, exhaled and said, "So tiring… Working is very very tiring."

Yellow Mud tapped Milk Tea's head and said, "Milk Tea, you must appreciate every precious dollar earned from work. It is not easy to make a living."

At this moment, his phone received a notification from Wechat which Yellow Mud picked up, looking happy as he said, "We are receiving yesterday's salary."

"Huh? Our salary is paid? Milk Tea happily opened his cell phone but was disappointed by what he saw. "We have done so much… We are only paid about 100 dollars…"

He thought he could obtain 100 dollars easily just by asking and felt depressed.

"It's already a lot." Yellow Mud consoled him. "After you have worked and understand that money is hard to earn, you shouldn't take other people's hard-earned money."

Milk Tea recalled the pool of money in the Extradimensional Belly and nodded. He thought to himself, "Master Zhao must have worked very hard as it is not easy to earn so much money. I have to work hard to earn more money."
