As a cat, Lucky had no interest in human politics.
That said, he spent enough time around Ves to know that he did not have the best relationship with the Hunting Association.
Even a cat could tell that there was something extremely suspicious about finding a Hunter as well as a strategically valuable Mentalist Crystal in the middle of a cosmopolitan flagship!
Lucky had no idea what purpose the Mentalist Crystal served, but he could guess that it was doing far more than just improving the performance of the strange crystalline processors.
As the Hunter looked ready to turn Lucky into his latest trophy, the gem cat was already thinking about trying to slip away.
The cat had fallen for this kind of trap once before in the past, but he was much different from his past self!
After eating and digesting exceedingly precious materials such as ATC-A and EE-343F-00334R, Lucky had multiple ways to jump out of this trap.
