Chapter 349 – Cat Dad Has Terrible Women's Luck
"Huh?"
"What the?"
"Eh?"
Noticing the odd reaction of Madoka, the spectators were puzzled and baffled. They had expected her to either kill or punish the cat, but she seemed strangely docile.
Madoka turned around and politely bowed to ward Jorm, "Please excuse me. I need to fulfill my duty for my master."
"M-Master? What?!" Jorm couldn't believe his ears.
WHOOSH
Despite having a huge physique, Madoka swam through one of the palace windows and vanished.
The speechless crowd turned their attention to Xiaomao next. The immortals tried to read his memory and karma, but they found nothing. Only Undine and Nymph sensed a strange ominous air around Xiaomao as they were familiar with this aura.
It was identical to Meowmeow and Mir's aura!
'Cathulhu's characteristic?' Undine suspected that Cathulhus and Catopuses had something in common, and it was related to their origins.
Jorm's expression turned ugly. Nobody knew what he was thinking, but his eyes were brimmed with killing intent toward Xiaomao.
"What did you do to the goddess, catopus?!"
Xiaomao panted as the aftereffect and the penalty of the grand curse took a toll on him. He wryly smiled, "Have you ever heard of Neuralyzer, munya?"
"Neuro, what?"
"Never mind. Anyway, we're done here. If you excuse us, munya."
Xiaomao immediately wrapped up the business to flee the scene. Nymph and Undine caught on to Xiaomao's intention and played along.
Meanwhile, Jorm was still confused about what Xiaomao did to Madoka. As he was wary of Madoka's behavior and her craziness, Jorm didn't push his luck.
"Be careful out there, Your Highness."
"…"
With Jorm's permission, everybody left the palace and the dungeon behind.
.
.
30 minutes later, a blindfolded lamia with purple long hair arrived at the palace. Similar to Madoka, she was also a deity.
Her physique was more graceful than Madoka's. Her snake abdomen was refined, and her scales were glossy and smooth. Her black gown was decorated with jewels and trinkets while the see-through area on her chest highlighted her perfect bosom.
Jorm immediately closed his eyes when he noticed her presence. He lowered his head, "I'm so sorry for summoning you, Lady Medusa."
Medusa ignored Jorm. She waved her finger and levitated the fat lizardman out of his throne. Then, she slithered toward the throne and sat on it.
"What did you call me for, fat gecko? I was in the middle of analyzing genes."
"Y-You've arrived late, my lady. The guest I need you to protect did something to Madoka and left."
"Guests? Who?"
"The stepson of Lady Chang'e, my lady."
"Hmm. Then, where is Madoka?"
"She went out for an errand for the stepson, my lady."
Medusa nodded and pinched her fingers, calculating karma. However, just like everybody else, she could not find Xiaomao's whereabouts or karma strings.
As Medusa couldn't track Xiaomao's karma, she read Madoka's karma instead. Then, she managed to catch a glimsp of what had happened here.
However, the irregular karma of Xiaomao interested her.
"Odd."
"Y-Yes?"
"Who is this stepson you are talking about? I can't find him."
"Xiaomao, my lady."
"Xiaomao? What race is he?"
"A catopus, my lady. He's as big as an adult slime, but he hasn't evolved into a Cathulhu yet. His cultivation base is somewhat at the 7th stage. He seems to have many artifacts on him since his name is shiny gold."
"Hmm."
Again, nobody could read Medusa's mood as they could not look at her face. Despite being blindfolded, the ominous glowing red pupils shone through the black clothes, terrifying the guards and Jormungand the Third.
After the awkward moment of silence, Medusa shook her head.
"Ignore them. Whatever they do, leave them alone."
"But, my lady, the order of the town is at risk! They caused a huge commotion earlier, and the women now don't want to work anymore. They all want the stepson's genes and his bloodline."
"That's why you should leave him alone. Pushing it too hard will only antagonize the kid."
Jorm sulked. He had planned to corrupt and manipulate Xiaomao to breed cathulhus, but everybody was against his idea. He had a headache as he didn't know what to explain to his father and grandfather after this.
"What about Her Excellency Madoka, my lady? She's acting odd."
"She must have been cursed or brainwashed. Her karma tells me that she already forgets the purpose of her life and her missions."
"T-Then…?!"
"We don't count on Madoka and Alice anymore. They're no longer a part of our faction."
"…"
"Because our forces is weakened, cancel the scheduled coup. Pretend to serve Chang'e as usual and contribute to the kingdom if necessary. Do not provoke Chang'e and that Xiaomao guy for the time being until Cernun is dead, and the Anglerfish is freed."
"Yes, my lady."
.
.
After leaving the palace dungeon and Jorm, everybody was relieved. Both Nymph and Undine kissed Xiaomao's cheeks.
"Munya?"
Xiaomao was surprised. He blushed.
"Thanks for not leaving us, Xiaomao," Nymph rubbed her face against Xiaomao's soft fur.
"Well done back there. I thought we would have been dead," Undine patted Xiaomao's head, but she secretly and coyly stuck her finger in his mouth, seducing him.
"MUNYA!"
Although Undine's finger was salty because of the seawater and her sweat, Xiaomao teased her by twirling his tongue, licking it clean.
Undine giggled. She pulled him from Nymph and shoved him back into her clothes. Then, she secretly sent him a voice transmission message.
'Lick me and do what you did to Alice. Treat it as a reward.'
"…"
Sometimes, Xiaomao was taken aback by Undine's openness and her lewd side. But since they were now officially husband and wife, he showed her no mercy.
"MLEM MLEM MLEM!"
Undine regretted her decision. She had underestimated the cat's tongue and the cat's technique. Now, she could barely keep her pokerface as her entire body was tingling.
That was not all, Xiaomao's tentacle teased her entire body. He rubbed her everywhere, and one of them slipped inside a sensitive place.
Nymph pouted as she wanted to try it too. She whispered to Undine, "Let me use him after we get back."
".. Okay."
"MLEM MLEM MLEM, I'm not a toy, munya! MLEM MLEM MLEM!"
CRITICAL HIT!
"MMM!"
Undine covered her mouth. Xiaomao began attacking her while they were in public.
.
Border Town was separated into three sections – The outskirt section, the inner section, and the palace section.
The outskirt was the red-light district and the common zone where guests, tourists, prostitutes, and militia guards resided. They were also the most populated area as non-elite members could not access the inner town area.
As for the inner district, it consisted of luxurious hotels, villas, and residents of the high-class officials and rich sea folks. Unless one had enough money or status, nobody could never enter this zone. Only the authorized residents received a badge as a proof of their identity and the rights to live here.
Because Undine, Nymph, and Xiaomao trespassed and crossed the zones illegally, they didn't wear a badge like the others. The bystanders kept glancing at their group, suspecting them for criminals or trespassers.
Looking around for a moment, Undine remembered the custom here. She pulled out her badge from her inventory and put it on. Nymph and a few elite mermaids also wore theirs.
However, half of them awkwardly gazed at their colleagues as they didn't have one. They pretended to be their servants as the servants and followers of the elites were exempt from this rule.
"Let's book an inn and wait for Lady Madoka. We can't wander around without badges, or we'll be arrested again."
Nymph glanced at Undine, whose face was as red as tomatoes. Because Xiaomao never stopped teasing Undine, the mermaid was in a trance, and she was drowned in pleasure.
Respecting her senior, Nymph pretended not to notice it. She rushed into a 10-story purple hotel building, which was made from coral.
A minute later, Nymph came out with a piece of good news.
"I've booked a hall for all of us. We can stay there for a day. Let's hide over there for now."
Undine didn't say anything. Nymph grabbed her hand and pulled her into the building while the mermen and mermaids quietly followed their masters.
Undine was relieved. Finally, they could let loose and rest.
"STOP RIGHT THERE!"
Suddenly, the familiar voice of someone they knew came from above. Everybody looked up.
Above them was a blond loli succubus in a blue dress and bunny headwear. Her malicious aura expanded as if she was furious.
RUMBLE
Alice activated her domain and covered everything in the luxurious district in pink gas. Every woman including bystanders coughed as if they couldn't breathe, but all mermen shivered and spasmed as if they had a seizure. But in reality, they all sparyed white milk everywhere in the sea.
As Undine was distracted, she failed to react to Alice's arrival. By the time she sensed Alice's aura, the loli succubus was already in front of her.
Alice flipped Undine's dress and yanked Xiaomao out from the bottom. She kicked Undine away and hugged the catopus, ignoring the sticky juices on his tentacles.
"MASTER! WHY DID YOU FIRE ME?! WHAT DID I DO WRONG?!" Alice sobbed.
"Munya?"
"Master! I'm begging you. Let me follow you again! PLEASE!"
Xiaomao was confused. He thought that he had already severed their master-slave relationship, but Alice was still loyal to him. Because of Alice's strange behavior, Xiaomao checked her favorability status.
It was still seven stars.
Xiaomao wryly smiled and came up with an excuse, "I'm so sorry, munya. Madoka forced me to free you or she would kill me. I had to do it."
"Then, let me be your slave again, master! Don't abandon me!"
Xiaomao sweated profusely. He blamed his stupid woman's luck and his previous action earlier today.
'I shouldn't have done it! I should have known! I shouldn't have stuck it in crazies!'
It was too late to regret. He used the Enslavement skill on Alice.
DING
<The target has a high favorability with you.>
<Alice doesn't resist your skill.>
<Alice has been enslaved.>
Once again, Alice rejoined his family, and his harem sized expanded by one.
'I hope I won't meet another woman. I have enough wives, god dammit!'
Alice was overjoyed when she confirmed her status. She dismissed her domain and brought everybody to the hotel, which Nymph had reserved a room for them.
.
For one hour, Xiaomao's tongue was the MVP of the marathon. He managed to subdue Alice, Nymph, and Undine once again at the cost of a sore mouth, gum, and tongue. Then, for the next two hours, Xiaomao rampaged and turned into a villain, taking revenge on the women.
The battle ended with the cat's victory. The immortals fainted from exhaustion, but the naughty cat was not satisfied. He continued draining their Qi while they were sleeping, using his tentacles.
.
.
Meanwhile, Madoka had a hard time dealing with the Asgard Bank. The bank manager refused to withdraw Joan's assets as Freya had already closed the account.
In the bank, the naga manager and several bank employees surrounded Madoka, trying to appease her.
"Ma'am, the account has been closed. The account's owner is already dead. Please understand…"
As usual, Madoka bellowed like a Karen, "This bank account belongs to my master now, and you will withdraw the assets for me! I'm your customer. Customers are gods!"
"But ma'am, even if I want to, I just can't."
"If your bank is that incompetent, I'll just destroy it and take what's mine!"
"MA'AM, THAT'S A ROBBERY!"
"I DON'T GIVE A FUCK! GIVE ME MY MONEY!"
The strongest deity in this border town began attacking the bank. The security guards were blown away, and she seized the bank manager's neck, holding him hostage.
Madoka lost it, "FROM NOW ON, EVERY PACT, GOLD COINS, AND ITEMS IN YOUR BANK BELONG TO ME!"
