If a normal human had been jumped like this, they would probably panic and react instinctively, defending their facial area from whatever was attacking.
However, Dante who had almost 4 times the agility and dexterity of the average human, was not even phased. He simply reached out a hand to grad before him and captured the shadow that was leaping at him, revealing a… cat!
It was a relatively small cat with a very human-like expression on its face, showing fear and shock. Its body and fur were quite thin and sparse, probably due to malnutrition, Dante could even see parts of its ribs through its torso.
It had reddish-white fur and bright blue eyes that were as expressive as that of a human. Dante looked the cat up and down then marveled slightly. A cat like this was rare even in the Eternal Universe and could fetch a high price.
