Chapter 54

Something huge stood on top of me. I could feel the harshness of something rubbing my face several times.

‘It stings…….’

My mind suddenly flashed with recognition as soon as I felt the touch. Large golden eyes were staring right at me, with big round irises, and vertically elongated pupils. Its white hair was fluttering on the sides of its face with its pointed ears perked on the top of its head, a long beard, and a moist pink noise.

‘A cat?’

It was not fully changed and turned into a scary monster yet, but it was definitely a large-sized cat. The cat was pressing down on me with its thick paws and licking my face with its coarse tongue. I couldn’t see any hostility in its eyes.

“Shushu! We need to get that cat off her!” I heard Deleign’s anxious voice ring out.

The Grand Duke and Wyndert seized the cat without a word so as to not provoke it.

Instead of pulling out their knives, they used their body strength to remove the cat from on top of me, and it seems that they didn’t have any plans to kill it because it wasn’t a monster yet.

“Meeeeeeeow!”

However, instead of obediently being removed from me, the cat glared at the Grand Duke and Wyndert and recognized them as enemies, at the same time, it was trying to cling to me so obsessively.

“Wait, wait! I don’t think this wants to attack me!”

The cat held out its paws angrily towards its enemies but it didn’t use its claws while holding me down. Rather, its big and fat paws stepping on me were soft.

“It’s going to ruin your face if it keeps licking you with such a rough tongue.” The Grand Duke spoke with a displeased tone of voice, and tore away the cat forcefully away from me with an almost monstrously annoyed facial expression.

“Meooow!”

The cat made a cry out of protest and tried to run toward me again.

‘Is that a monster? Why is it only doing this to me?’

Its size was indeed ambiguous. It didn’t look like a normal cat because of the size, but if you shrunk it down it would be quite normal and not very monster-like.

It seemed that it took a long time for it to grow to the size of a house. After seeing it in person, I understood why he wasn’t able to kill it during the subjugation.

From their perspective, it just looked like the forest cats and from a distance, this long-haired cat looked like it could be a sacred beast guarding the forest.

‘Such a pretty child…….’

The cat wiggled its tail and jumped over through the air, hitting me again.

It’s as if it was dying to cling to me with no qualms – an attitude telling me that it couldn’t stand being away from me.

“No! Save the lady!”

“Shushu!”

“Remove it now!”

Its fur was so long that I was buried under it and couldn’t properly hear the words of the people shouting to save me. Instead, I heard a different sound, something like the heartbeat of the cat.

‘Oh?’

Buried in its thick fur, I heard the cat’s heart pounding and found something unusual.

“What is this?”

I felt some similar energy to some I once felt and feeling something similar to my own spirit power in this situation caused me a great deal of discomfort.
