Then, he tilted his head fro his mouth Ares and Sphynx Cat leaped out of it

”I'uardians Do not allow anyone to disturb me Ares, make sure that you use your deflective field to protect yourself and Sphynx Cat at all tiive the enemy a chance to attack or control you”

Ares did as he was told without question He could tell how serious Zhao Yao was from the fiercely determined look on his face

As the force field unfurled around Sphynx Cat, he could not help but gaze adoringly at Ares In his heart, the infatuated cat thought, ”Is this… Is this considered our first ti stare sent chills down Ares' spine, but not the kind that he row cold and clahtened to an impenetrable circumference

”I can't do this anymore,” he panicked internally, ”This weird relationshi+p cannot go on”

As this thought crossed his head, another onetonnes of metal into little patties of any shape he desired Fear and hesitation settled uneasily in the pit of Ares' sto creepier and creepier,” he argued with hi behind me into the bathroom This does not bode well for me at all”

Sphynx Cat's lips curled into a srin He waved his sharp claws at Zhao Yao

”With pleasure,” he said, ”Killing you is one of the items on my bucket list”

Zhao Yao surveyed the tunnel they were in This was not quite the safest place for his physical body as he embarked on his journey Hence, he spat Elizabeth and her family out from the extradimensional belly and into the prison

Zhao Yao nodded at Diana, then let his eyelids fall shut

When Zhao Yao's eyes snapped open, he found hi on an exquisitely comfortable recliner Within arm's reach was a curated selection of snacks and drinks, an ie computer screen, and a box of tissues

The last ti for the illusion to break With the combined perception of five supercats, he quickly realized that what he was seeing and experiencing was not real

This tis were different It was exactly like what Diana had said This drea only a few individuals As such, the level of control that Nightmare Cat had here was God-like He could definitely do more than spawn new NPCs now

”God, this chair is coht in amazement

He was in his happy place

All the things that he needed were displayed neatly on shelves that were easily reached There was nothing he could not grab without getting off his butt

He was practically radiating joy
