Upon returning to the Extradimensional Belly, Zhao Yao wanted to find Elizabeth to feed her a spicy cat strip.
He fed her one and an explosion with white smoke occurred as a long, white and furry scarf appeared on the ground.
Zhao Yao grabbed the scarf and ran his hands through it. It felt like numerous Elizabeth tails merged into one.
"This scarf looks pretty classy, but what's its use?"
Zhao Yao understood that the gear a cat transformed into after taking a spicy cat strip would have slightly different powers from the original cat. He wanted to experiment with the scarf to test its powers.
First, he tried to cast the power of illusion but soon realized that they did not work. Zhao Yao then tried to use mind control on others but that failed as well.
"Eh? Both mind control and illusion powers are gone?" Zhao Yao stroked his chin and thought it was strange.
At that moment, he suddenly realized that more than 10 supercats had gathered around him.
Zhao Yao stared at Cannon and shouted, "Hey, why are you guys gathering here?"
Cannon (the Japanese cat with the virgin boy power) stared squarely at Zhao Yao and replied, "Nothing much. Just came here to look at you, handsome."
Zhao Yao was delighted by his words and laughed out, "What are you saying, who taught you that. What an obedient little cat." As he said that, he stretched out his hand and ruffled Cannon's head.
Cannon was delighted when Zhao Yao patted his head. Seeing this, the supercats around them squeezed closer to them and started meowing at Zhao Yao.
Uncle Egg bumped his head repeatedly against Zhao Yao, "Zhao Yao! Pat my head please."
Dust Ball also ran to Zhao Yao's feet and bumped against his calf as he said, "Pat me! Zhao Yao pat my head please!"
"What's happening?" Zhao Yao stared at the crowd of cats curiously, "Why are they all being so coy today."
At that moment, Elizabeth's voice rang in Zhao Yao's head, "Zhao Yao, look in the mirror."
"Look in the mirror?" Zhao Yao's eyes flashed before he regained his senses. He walked to the mirror and saw a strikingly handsome young man wearing a fox tail-like scarf. It was as if a deity had walked straight out from a painting.
"This is me?" Zhao Yao stared at his reflection in astonishment and touched his face, "My looks haven't changed much, but why does it feel like my charm has increased by so much?"
He leaned on the mirror and inspected the sides of his face, forehead, and chin, "D*mn, I'm so handsome now. What will I do if I wake up to this handsome self every day?"
Elizabeth really wanted to roll her eyes, so she said, "I think it's my power. After I turned into a scarf, I guess my power turned into increasing a person's charm. Appearance wise there seems to be no change, but you just look much more pleasing to the eye. Hehe, looks like your charm has increased by quite a lot."
Elizabeth continued anxiously, "Okay we're done. Now that you know what my power is you can turn me back now."
"Are you kidding me?" Zhao Yao suddenly took on a righteous tone, "Superpowers are such a deep and mysterious thing. How can you come to a conclusion in just a few minutes? I think I need to experiment with the scarf more to see what effect it truly has. What if there's some danger to it?"
"Ah?" Elizabeth replied, "But..."
"No buts, " Zhao Yao walked towards the dimension portal gleefully as he continued wearing the scarf, "This scarf's power is too dubious. We need to experiment with it properly."
As he said that, he had already stepped out of the dimension doorway and entered the cat café.
When he appeared in the cat café lobby, the first person he saw was Xiao Shiyu. Seeing how Xiao Shiyu stared at him, Zhao Yao smiled slightly.
What surprised him next was how Xiao Shiyu immediately turned red when he smiled at her and lowered her head, not daring to look at him again.
"It's that powerful?" He raised his eyebrows as he walked around the cat café in delight, secretly pleased with his new power.
At that moment, he felt himself become the center of attraction in the cat café. The customers in the cat café and every female there, including university students, high school students, office ladies, nurses, policewomen, and many others, were all somewhat attracted to his presence.
One lady was bold enough to stare seductively at Zhao Yao and licked her lips as if she was a female leopard that had spotted her prey.
Elizabeth was not amused, "Okay, that's enough, right. It's really just increasing your charm. It's a very obvious power."
"No, Elizabeth you're too careless, " Zhao Yao said."These customers are all familiar people. It's not their first time seeing me, so it's very normal for them to be attracted to my male hormones. We should try it out on strangers."
Just then, that bold lady walked over and said to Zhao Yao, "Boss, you look very handsome today." As she said that, she stroked the scarf hanging from Zhao Yao's neck and said, "Spring is already coming to an end but you're still wearing a scarf, how fashionable."
Zhao Yao took two steps back as he felt a little embarrassed, "Hehe... I'm scared of the cold."
The lady continued, "Boss, let's have dinner together tonight?"
"No... No thank you, I have something tonight." Looking at her and the other girls around him staring at him seductively, Zhao Yao quickly walked out of the cat café as he said, "I have to go now. Enjoy yourselves."
That lady stared at Zhao Yao's back and giggled, "How cute."
Zhao Yao heaved a sigh of relief after coming out of the cat café. Elizabeth, who was hanging on his neck, asked, "Zhao Yao, what's wrong? Didn't you always wish for girls to notice you?"
"What do you know, I prefer the passive type, " Zhao Yao walked on the streets and immediately sensed his attractiveness as people around him kept turning back to look at him. Five girls added him on WeChat and three boys asked him for his phone number. Seven girls asked him for directions on the streets. More than 10 girls secretly took photos of him, which they deleted after a few hours and went to get their eyes checked.
Of course, quite a few aunties gave him things to eat and wanted to introduce their daughters to him.
After shaking off all those people, Zhao Yao sat down by roadside shrubs holding a plate of desserts. Glancing at the aunty who gave it to him, he swallowed it in one bite and sighed, "You can really do anything as long as you're handsome."
At that moment, Zhao Yao suddenly felt that the world was so beautiful, people were so kind, and everyone was so nice to him.
Elizabeth sighed, "We're done, right? Isn't our experiment to test if we can deal with King of Death?"
Zhao Yao touched the scarf on his neck and said, "Hmm, is it possible for me to use this power against King of Death? It's not a decisive power though."
Zhao Yao thought about what it would be like if King of Death and the thousands of people under his control started liking him and decided that it was too troublesome for him to handle. As he thought of that, he finished the desserts and put the empty plate down beside him.
At that moment, an office lady who passed by gave Zhao Yao a 10 dollar note as she said, "You're so handsome. Don't be a beggar. Go find a job quickly."
"What the heck?" Zhao stared as the empty plate was filled with more than 100 dollars in a span of 10 minutes. He looked at the 16 spicy cat strips he had left, "I really have to complete more missions to draw more ten-combos and get more spicy cat strips."
Zhao Yao continued with the aggressive promotion of catmint and sent out even more supercats to open more channels elsewhere.
Since the poisonous catmint source had been destroyed, it stopped spreading around. However, the supercats who were already hooked on it fell into misery and suffering overnight.
