"Do not worry, let me think of something." Ares and the three other supercars began brainstorming on the best wish to ask for.
An idea flashed across Ares's head, and it suggested, "Let us make a wish which will give us lots of money."
"The God had mentioned before that we are not allowed to leave this dimension. If we can't leave this place, we should ask for something that allows us to stay connected to the outside world, " Lucifer suggested.
The black American Shorthair that had remained quiet for most of the time opened its mouth and uttered a single word, "Internet."
Suddenly, Ares's eyes glimmered with hope and its mouth curved into a smile, "Not bad! The internet would serve as our window into the outside world and allow us to know what is happening. We can use it to contact the outside world or maybe even Ho Hao Cang!"
At this moment, the Siamese cat opened its mouth and rapidly tapped against Ares's neck, "Big brother..."
"What are you doing? Can't you see we're in the middle of a serious discussion?"
"But... But the cat food has transformed!" The Siamese cat struggled to get the words out.
The other supercats promptly turned their heads around and discovered the original XXXX brand cat food had turned into OOOO brand cat food.
"D*mn it!" Ares shouted as its face flushed with anger, "Didn't I already stop Gaia from making that wish? Gaia did not even complete its statement. Why did they change our cat food?"
A magical and powerful aura descended into their atmosphere, "Please, I am God. I've already understood its wish when it uttered the first word."
"What the hell!" Ares's face scrunched up in anger and retorted, "Does this mean that you have the final say in everything in this world?"
"Yes! You are a pretty smart cat to have realized that." Zhao Yao's condescending voice once again rang in their dimension, "As God, I can do whatever I like."
"Ahh!!!!" Ares burst with anger when it heard those impudent words. It began growling, and its canine teeth emerged from the corner of its lips.
Seeing that things were about to get out of hand, Lucifer and Fūjin immediately went up to coax Ares.
"Ares, don't be rash and do anything stupid!"
"Big brother, you have to control yourself. He is God!"
"Why do I have to control my anger? That's not how a cat behaves! That's how a stupid cat slave acts!" Ares reached out its paws, and knife-like claws immediately emerged from it."I am going to destroy you right now and then..."
"Oh?" Suddenly, Zhao Yao's voice sounded in their dimension. The darkness which shrouded their surrounding was lifted, and a moon-sized eye appeared in the sky.
"Ares, no!"
"Big brother!"
They were taken aback by Ares's sudden rampage and wanted to stop it from attacking God.
When they dashed forward to stop Ares, they realized Ares had diverted from its original track. Instead of going straight for the wall, it turned around swiftly and bolted towards Gaia.
"I am going to tear you apart!" Ares nimbly pounced on Gaia's body and started whacking its head. Ares followed it up by tearing off all of Gaia's fur.
"Why did you to ask for a wish without consulting us?"
"Why do you always spout so much nonsense?"
...
Zhao Yao then took his leave from the extradimensional belly. With a swirl of wind, Zhao Yao found himself back at the café's cat toilet.
However, he was welcomed by a shriek the moment he landed there. He turned around and witnessed Dust Ball vomiting feces out of her outstretched mouth. She was visibly shocked by Zhao Yao's appearance and was a little apprehensive.
Dust Ball whined, "Can you at least make some sound when you are coming out? I thought that you were another cat in the café."
"I'm so sorry, " Zhao Yao scratched his head as he looked at this extraordinary scene of a cat vomiting feces out of her mouth and commented, "Thank you for getting rid of the 'stuff' inside your belly."
Zhao Yao returned to his usual seat after settling his business inside the belly. As usual, he was aimlessly surfing the net, but a giant smile suddenly plastered on his face.
Fūjin had accepted your leadership, and you have earned 200 experience points for it.
"Haha, I guess the last stunt did the trick!" Zhao Yao understood that the final illusion that he cast had frightened the cat, which forced it to submit to Zhao Yao's leadership.
Zhao Yao rested his head on the table because of his throbbing headache. Actually, Zhao Yao had planned for a more elaborate and detailed mission for the cats. However, the illusion once again took their toll on him. Hence, he had to cut short the task after a short while.
With the Siamese cat's submission, the 200 experience points earned had ballooned to 400 with the effects of "X2 Exp Card". Now, his BOOK read lv3(758/2000).
Zhao Yao flipped through a few pages and looked through the experience points for his three cats.
Matcha: Lv4 (970/2000)
Elizabeth: Lv4 (210/2000)
Dust Ball: Lv5 (100/5000)
"At this rate, I would be able to upgrade the cats once I receive my monthly mission's experience bonus!"
While still immersed in his daydreams, he shut his BOOK and fixed his attention back to his computer which marked the start of a new day. Customers began streaming into the café as lunch hour quickly approached.
However, Zhao Yao received a group of unexpected customers in the afternoon.
He noticed a strange presence and lifted his head to see who was at the door. It was a group of men clad in black suits. There were 7 or 8 of them. As usual, they paused after taking a step into the café, and their eyes began surveying their surroundings.
The leader of the group walked towards Zhao Yao and carefully scrutinized his face. He whipped out his phone and stared at the screen. Then, he asked, "Are you Zhao Yao? Are you the owner of the café?"
Zhao Yao replied politely, "Yes, that's me. What brings you here today?"
"Our leader is coming over here today. We will be in charge of your café's security temporarily." The man reported coolly. His voice was devoid of emotions. However, Zhao Yao could sense that there was no room for argument against this man.
"You can ask your customers to take their leave. We have arranged for a group of people who will pretend to be customers in your café."
However, Zhao Yao was flabbergasted by this man's nonsensical request after barging into his café and retorted, "Who are you?"
The man's forehead furrowed slightly, and he retrieved his ID from his breast pocket and started waving it in front of Zhao Yao's eyes. There was information about his agency and department. However, Zhao Yao still had no idea who he was even though his credentials seemed somewhat legitimate.
The man noticed the confusion on Zhao Yao's face and replied, "You just have to follow my instructions. I'm telling you that the person coming over here is an extremely high-ranking official; please do not make things difficult for us." The man clad in suit only said that to scare Zhao Yao. From his experience, ordinary citizens would comply obediently when they heard these words.
He then clapped his hands and announced, "I apologize but the shop has brought forward the closing time, and I would need all of you to cooperate for us to do our job."
"Xiao Jiang, Xiao Yang, find a way to keep all these cats away from our chief."
The remaining men behaved just like their leader. They had no expressions on their face and exuded a fearsome aura. They acted according to the instructions and began chasing the customers and got rid of the cats.
Zhao Yao's lips drew into a snarl when he witnessed this scene. The customers in the café would have a direct impact on his monthly mission which ultimately affected his experience points earned. He would never allow someone to jeopardize his experience points earned.
Zhao Yao stared at the man in black, and a devilish aura emanated from his body. A red glimmer flashed across his eyes, and he said coolly, "Hey, I'm giving you one chance. Stop now or I'll make you stop myself."
The man in black did not pay much attention to Zhao Yao's words and responded with a proud smile.
The man Zhao Yao spoke to was the ace soldier during his time serving on the front line. His combat, reconnaissance, defensive, and assault abilities had far surpassed any ordinary humans.
After being selected as a member of the government's apostles, he had gone through a rigorous training which seamlessly combined his innate combat power and abilities. He was the "Captain America" of China.
Usually, he would not give a damn about a regular apostle like Zhao Yao. To him, an amateur like Zhao Yao could not a hold a candle to himself.
