In the bedroom.
Two hours had passed since Peter Parker had left, yet the "elemental reaction" hadn't ceased.
Aunt May, her cheeks flushed, nestled in Su Yu's arms.
"Su, you're amazing."
Su Yu chuckled, teasing back, "What's so amazing about me?"
"You're terrible!" Aunt May playfully scolded, her blush deepening.
Su Yu decided to ease up, no longer teasing her.
He stayed with her a while longer until she drifted off to sleep. Only then did he carefully get up and head to the bathroom.
While taking a shower, Su Yu looked at the system panel in front of him.
[Ding! Transaction target found: Tom the Cat. Would the host like to begin the transaction immediately?]
The system prompt sounded quietly.
"Tom the Cat?!" Su Yu's eyes lit up at the words.
This character was practically a conceptual deity.
Don't be fooled by Tom's apparent weakness, struggling to catch a mouse. That was merely for entertainment.
If it came down to abilities, Tom the Cat was absolutely a conceptual god-like existence!
First, there's his nearly immortal ability to revive infinitely.
Second, his boundless creativity.
The unique items created by Tom, such as invisibility potions and strength potions, were exceptionally powerful.
If Su Yu could trade for any of these, it would be a win without question.
"Begin the transaction immediately!"
Su Yu quickly rinsed off, wrapped a towel around himself, and returned to his room.
The system panel in front of him trembled for a moment.
It then transformed into a virtual light screen, like a video call, revealing a light-blue cat.
It was Tom!
"Hey, hello, Tom. Is there something you need help with?"
Looking at the dejected cat, Su Yu chuckled.
This little guy really had it rough.
Eight hundred episodes and still couldn't catch Jerry. He was constantly being fooled, despised by everyone, and even his owner disliked him.
Tom's plight could fill a river of tears.
"Wahhh, Multiverse Shopkeeper, I want to eat meat! Lots and lots of meat!"
Tom sobbed and spoke.
Through the system, he already knew Su Yu was the Multiverse Shopkeeper, possessing supreme power.
But as a cat, his one and only wish was to eat meat.
Because he couldn't catch mice, his owner had locked him up for days.
"Meat? That's simple."
Su Yu didn't waste words and directly fetched a pile of food from the fridge.
Chicken, duck, fish, meat—everything was there.
This was all stuff Aunt May had bought daily to make sure he ate well. It was practically no different from pampering him.
"So much delicious food? Wahhh, you're such a good person!!"
Seeing the food being transported over, Tom was overwhelmed with tears.
The Multiverse Shopkeeper was truly a kind soul.
He couldn't wait to dig in.
But suddenly, he paused, looking at Su Yu for permission.
"Shopkeeper, can I eat it now?"
"Of course!"
Su Yu nodded, raising his opinion of Tom slightly.
This cat was pretty polite.
"Thank you! Thank you!"
With Su Yu's permission, Tom immediately began feasting.
Before long, his face was covered in oil from all the food.
Hic!
After eating to his heart's content, Tom let out a satisfied burp.
Su Yu watched this scene with a smile.
"Sorry, Shopkeeper, I was so hungry for days. I must've made a fool of myself."
Tom felt a little embarrassed under Su Yu's gaze.
"Don't worry about it. Are you full now?"
Su Yu asked casually.
"I'm full."
Tom nodded quickly, then hesitated before asking nervously:
"Shopkeeper, you gave me so much food. How should I repay you? I really don't have much to offer."
Saying this, Tom hung his head in shame.
"Is that so?"
Su Yu made a show of thinking before casually saying:
"I recall you've made some potions before, like invisibility or strength-enhancing ones. I'm quite interested in those curious items."
"If you have any, you could give me some. If not, it's no big deal."
Regarding Tom the Cat, Su Yu was pretty laid back.
After all, it was just some food.
Even if Tom couldn't provide any repayment, it wouldn't be a loss—it could be considered an investment.
"Potions?"
Tom was stunned for a moment.
He hadn't expected this all-powerful shopkeeper to only ask for something like that.
Those useless potions—he didn't even want to look at them himself.
They couldn't even help him catch that pesky mouse.
Since Su Yu wanted them, he immediately agreed and sneaked into the storage room.
Under Su Yu's curious gaze, Tom rummaged through boxes and cabinets.
Before long, he found several small blue potions.
They looked like they were stored in ink bottles.
"Shopkeeper, look. These are the strength-enhancing potions I made before! Honestly, they're not very effective. I couldn't even catch that mouse with them. Please don't mind their quality."
Tom spoke while uploading three potions through the system.
Su Yu immediately received the trade request.
[Ding! Tom the Cat is offering 3x Basic Strength Potions. Does the host accept?]
"Accept!"
Su Yu had no reason to refuse.
He had already checked the attributes.
The potions that Tom dismissed as useless were evaluated by the system as rare transformation potions.
If Su Yu used them, he could immediately transform into a Hulk-like figure!
