Sleeping Giant Inn.

The black cat actually started talking. Masos was bewildered at this scene though he quickly recollected himself and said, “Tsk, did I really capture a god?”

Link nodded and said, “You can tell from the way he speaks. Only a god would call us mortals.”

Masos then stroked his beard as he laughed, “I can brag about this for generations to come.”

The black cat gave him a cold stare before he sneered, “A few generations? You will be lucky enough to live your life in peace.”

Masos was suddenly reminded of the weight of the situation. The black cat seemed to ignore him after shooting him a glance.

Masos suddenly felt a cool breeze on his beck. Although this cat was in a wreck now, he was still a god. If he ever recovered his powers, Masos would definitely be in trouble.

“I don’t feel good. I’ll be going back to rest,” Masos said as he quickly made his leave.

Only Link and Felina were left in the room.

Link was not afraid of the black cat. He sat beside the table and observed the cat quizzically before asking, “How do I address you? Do I still call you Elodim?”

“A name is merely an alias. Call me whatever you want.” The black cat assumed its languid appearance once again. It no longer stared at the fish broth that was some distance away from him, though his nose would still switch ever so often.

“Why are you hiding from us?” Felina asked.

“I like to do so. What can you do?” the black cat said impatiently.

“I’m afraid that is not all.” Link tapped his wand lightly on the table, emitting a clicking sound. He had a calm expression on his face as he stared at Elodim with an unmoving gaze. No one knew what Link was thinking about.

Elodim felt guilty upon seeing Link’s face. He immediately stressed, “Like I said, it’s none of your business!”

Link merely sighed and turned to Felina before saying, “Forget it, we are not in a rush anyway. We will eat our dinner in peace and discuss the rest tomorrow.”

Felina naturally had no objections. She then started eating the cyan eel meat. There were still large amounts of fish broth left. The both of them ate with relish.

A few minutes later, Elodim could not withstand the temptations anymore. He leaned to the side of the cage as he eyed the fish broth expectantly, pleading, “Hey, mortal. Let’s make a deal.”

This was not fully due to his gluttony. After his power was sealed, there was only this much he could pursue in life as a cat.

What else could he do?

Usually, when he was hungry, he could only steal food from the nearby stores. However, he could only do so occasionally. If he was ever caught, he would be in a miserable position. He did not wish to die once again. Using a dead body to revive was not as easy as it seemed. When he died in an accident the previous time, he had to lie in his tomb for six months before a black cat somehow graced the area.

That miserable past was too much for him to recall.

After obtaining the body of the black cat, he could only catch birds and rodents for food. He could only eat them raw as no one would cook his prey for him. Although he would not die if he starved, the discomfort from a starving stomach could very well drive him crazy.

He had to endure the nauseating feeling every time he ate a mouse just to satisfy his hunger.

He knew that if he were to please a mortal using his cute and attractive figure, he would definitely be able to lead a good life as a house pet. However, he was a god! How could he do something like pleasing a mortal! That was preposterous!

Link was just sucking on a fish bone as he turned around and laughed, “Do you want to have some?”

“I…do not want it. I only want to discuss some things with you!” Elodim used the last of his willpower to suppress his urges and replied affirmingly, turning his head in the meantime.

Link then ignored him.

Felina was starting to pity the black cat. She whispered, “This is not very nice. Should we give him some?”

Link shook his head and said, “You do not have to take pity on him. He has never ever taken pity on us.”

In his heart, Link added, You have no idea what he is planning. This guy is not someone to be trifled with.

However, Link did not say those words out. They were merely his predictions. Furthermore, Felina would not be able to help. There was no reason to make her unnecessarily worried.

After a filling meal, there was still a lot of food left, though Link had no plans on giving any of it to the black cat. He cleaned the oil off his mouth and told Felina, “Rest early, I will interrogate him in the night.”

“Alright,” Felina nodded before she left. After all, she had no idea how the Divine Gear worked. It would be futile to stay and do nothing.

At long last, there was only Link, Nana, and the black cat left in the room.

Nana sat on a chair at the side and ate the fish bit by bit. She seemed to be constantly intrigued by it, even playing with the bones. Link then allowed her to entertain herself while he walked towards the cage and whispered, “Isendilan approached you. Am I right?”

The black cat’s eyes widened, and his pupils dilated. It took him a full second before he recollected himself and said, “He is a red dragon. It is normal for him to be able to find me.”

“You taught him the revival spell right?” Link said.

The black cat fell silent again. After ten seconds, he nodded and said, “You have quite a good brain for a mortal. You are right again.”

“He promised you freedom?” Link’s questions seemed disjointed, though he knew very well the black cat could understand him perfectly.

“No.” The black cat shook his head before continuing, “He is merely a larger worm in my eyes. He does not have the power to give me my freedom. Freedom is something that I fight for. He merely brought me a delicious meal while feeling self-righteous that he had stolen a revival spell from me.”

“He does not know that terrible consequences of the spell?”
