"Hey Feng, I may be a gaming noob but shouldn't the voice belong to the statue in such a scenario" Hu Wei whispered.
Nodding his head in response, Feng scans the surroundings once again. However, no matter how much he looked, there was nothing of interest in the area except for the statue.
"Weaklings!" The voice boomed once again.
"As if you can find me that easily. Hmph!" Gnefnil snort.
Calmly eyeing his surroundings, Feng retorted, "If you are that strong, you would not be in hiding but face us head-on."
Shoosh~
The sound of air blowing can be heard as silence fills the area. Feng's eyebrows rise as he knows that he had made the right guess. 'Looks like there is no danger such as a boss in this area', Feng thought.
"Darn it. Here I was thinking it will be a fight to death again with a boss. In the end, it is just some weak ass." Hu Wei said disappointedly.
As soon as Hu Wei finishes his sentence, Feng spots a small shadow jumping off from the ledge above the door.
Landing directly on Feng's head so fast that even he could not react in time.
"Aww....such a cute kitty!" Hu Wei, who could see what had arrived on Feng's head, gushed.
'Kitten?' Feng's eyebrow raised as he got curious. Before he could raise his hand, Hu Wei approached the kitten above his head, attempting to pat it.
Swoosh Swat! ArGH~
Hu Wei, who had been approaching a moment ago, is now holding onto his face. The harmless-looking kitten on Feng's head had swatted at his face with speed so fast that Hu Wei was nothing but a sitting duck to him.
"So am I still a weak ass to you?" The voice of Genfnil boomed once again as the kitten that had just injured Hu Wei stood on Feng's head on all 4 paws; its fur seemed like it is standing on its own as it poses menacingly.
"You are Genfnil?" Feng asked.
"Well, Yes and No," Genfnil replies as it retracts its sharp claws and snuggles on Fengs out of bed hairstyle, messing it further.
"Huh? What is so hard about that? Yes, you are, and No, you are not..." Hu Wei asks as his palms cover his face, fingers open for his eyes to peak out, afraid of another scratch coming.
Looking at the absurd looking Hu Wei, muscular and tall but hiding behind his palms, Feng chuckled.
"It is indeed as my friend says, Master Genfnil," Feng said as he raises his hands towards his head, lifting the kitten that is resting above, he brought it down to his eye level.
Pfft...
The kitten that he had brought down was out of his expectation. 'No wonder Hu Wei could not resist himself. A white kitten, with a tinge of brown/black fur on its left ear, its size is so small that the Genfnil could fit into one of his palms easily as Feng cups the other palms around it. With its pink little small nose and its large round eyes, it would be hard to imagine that this was the creature that had scratch Hu Wei's face that easy earlier.
Hearing Feng's chortle, Genfnil felt annoyed as its eyes narrows. However, as Feng's thumb soothes its head, Genfnil eyes slowly open back into a full circle.
"So Genfnil, how about answering the question? I mean, there is no harm to answer that, is there? After all, you could easily kill me if you want to. Base on what you have said, I am pretty sure you are someone who is of importance, unlike me, your humble servant," Feng said.
'hmph...just a kitten if I can't even handle you, my surname would not be Lin!' Feng thought as he sucks up to the kitten.
From the start till now, it had only shown how big an ego it has. For such people...sorry animal, the easiest way to dig out information is to suck up to them and be humble.
"HAHA! You! I Like You! What is your name!" The voice of the Genfnil burst forth as its whiskers twitch as its face peeks out of Feng's palm that is cupping it.
Frankly, it is near impossible to match up the face and the voice. Even while he knew the entire truth, it still took Feng a few seconds to process and match the voice to its owner.
"Ahem. I am Feng. A level 3 villager." Feng answered the kitten respectfully.
"Good! I will take you in as my lackey from now on. First, let me answer your question. Firstly, Yes, because my soul is in this body. No, because this body is not mine. As for my original body, it has probably decayed over time." Genfnil replied.
"and you mentioned you were a hero?" Seeing the lips of Genfnil has loosened, Feng tries to pry more information out.
"hmm...well, that is in the past. No point talking about it now." Genfnil replied its eyes with a tinge of sadness. Staring into the large black tearing kittens eye, Feng felt his own tear glands starting to become watery.
'No, no. Don't get caught by those cute eyes...they are not real' Feng shook his head as he clears his thoughts.
"Brother Feng," Hu Wei intervenes. "Let's not pry into his past. Everyone has a secret or 2 they would like to keep."
'hmm...this guys luck is out of the world. If he asks me to stop, perhaps it is best to head his advice,' Feng thought upon hearing Hu Weis' word.
Still, in this case, what should he do? He ponders as he holds the kitten in his palms.
"By the way, kiddo, why do I sense a higher flow of mana on you than that big guy," Genfnil asks.
"hmm? This is because I added my stats to my wisdom," Feng replied honestly.
Sparkles fill the eyes of the kitten upon his words.
"You trying to be a cleric?" The kitten asks.
"Not really", Feng replied.
"Does not matter because, from today onwards, I will be your guide in your class advancement. However, in return, when you are strong enough, I need you to repay the favour." The kitten said.
