Chapter 513 Tabby the Orange

"You, this-"

"I am aware of your doubts, hoomans. But I assure you, this is the Legacy Weapon that you are looking for." Tabby the cat said, cutting off Alex’s ramblings. "Now if you will excuse me, I need to take the two Travelers with me."

"Wait-"

"Schung!" Tabby tapped his paw on the bungalow’s roof, which then released a powerful force field that pushed away everyone, except for Alex and Delia.

These two remained on their places, leaving them all alone with the cat.

As for those who were pushed away by the force field, they found themselves unable to approach Alex or Delia anymore. The force field has formed a dome enclosing Alex, Delia, and the bungalow inside it, making it impossible for anyone to get near.

"..." The lively mental connection that Alex had with his other bodies and Sierra also disappeared from the appearance of the force field, indicating the possibility that the force field can also block mental or even soul connections.

"So this cat wants to talk to me and Delia alone? Hmm, if it weren’t for Sierra’s assurances earlier, I could have thought that this cat is an enemy..." Alex thought, as he tried his best to extricate himself from his confusion. "But does this cat really have to use a force field to isolate us two? Why does it have to do this? Does this cat... have a hidden agenda?"

As he reached this thought, Alex began to tense as he stared at the orange cat with increased tension. This tension however lasted only for a second, as Alex saw the innocent look on the cat’s eyes.

"Tsk, I am an expert in judging character, so I can see that this cat is not intent on harming us... However, the power that it wields is obviously greater than mine, so I should still be careful of it..." Alex thought, remembering the power of the force file that is isolating him now. "Even the current me has no way to break this force field. If the cat can do something like this, it is also possible for it to kill us easily. Tsk, I really have to be careful here."

"..." While Alex was deep in thoughts about his possible interaction methods with the cat, the spear-wielding Delia was also silent. Alex was not sure if Delia was also busy scheming at this point, but he was thankful that she did not do anything to anger the cat.

At this point, Alex has decided to ask his questions to the cat, as he realized that this is the only way that he can move the conversation.

"So-’" But before he could even articulate his next words, the cat began to talk again.

"Once more, I apologize for what I did." Tabby the Orange Cat said with a face that exuded fondness. Such kind of look is surprising to see from a cat, as cats were not made to have that kind of face. "Don’t be angered by my actions, hoomans. The matter of obtaining the Legacy Weapon is of great importance. I cannot allow any strays to interrupt this process, hence my expulsion of your comrades."

"It’s fine, Tabby, we were just-"

"If you have any negative feelings for me, you can unleash it on me later. But for now, allow me to explain everything." Tabby said as it cut off Alex once more. "Such is my purpose here."

"Explain everything? Okay then, you can-"

"Eons ago, there existed a man who had used his power to conquer countless realms. Such endeavor was unheard at that time, as nobody had the courage to do such daunting task." For the third time this day, Alex was interrupted by Tabby, with his words fading against the cat’s excited words. "That man is the Infernal Monarch, and at his peak, he had four Realms under his control."

"Okay, so this cat is the type who likes to talk huh? Fine then, I shall allow you to talk..." Alex could not say these words out loud because of the cat’s interruptions,, so he just thought of it on himself. "Hmph, this cat must have been wanting to talk already, that he does not care for my opinions. He really just went straight to talking, and he does not want to listen to me! Tsk, since you are the guardian here, I will not complain. Just... don’t talk too much, okay?"

Alex’s silence allowed Tabby to continue his story-telling without any interruptions, something that Alex did not mind, as the story sounded interesting to him.

"These four realms are namely the Holy Order Realm, the Goetic Order Realm, the Primordial Serpent Realm, and the Abyss Realm." Tabby said as it ignored the shocked reactions from Alex and Delia. "Even when these four realms were also at the peak stage before, in face of the Infernal Monarch’s overbearing power, these realms were forced to submit to him."

"..."

"That period of time was the best time in my life. I had a lot of servants serving me, and I have a lot of territory placed under my name... Hehehe, a lot of galaxies and planets are named after my kittens..." Tabby must not have realized the repercussions of its revelations as it just continued to talk. It even had a look of nostalgia as it retold its past, something which irked Alex.

"Oi, you said that your name was Tabby, right? Do you realize the repercussions of what you just saids?" Alex snarled as he stopped Delia from rushing towards the cat. "Cat, are you sure that you are telling us the truth? Because if not..."

"I am telling the truth hooman. I was there when my master forced the four realms into submission. I even witnessed the leaders of these realm offering their allegiances to my master." Tabby replied calmly in face of Alex’s frenzied question. "Oh right, one of those leaders was the Abyss Envoy of that time. Hm, that Abyss Envoy was surely strong, but my master only needed one finger to injure him..."

"You-"

"That Abyss Envoy only had the power of 5 Sins, while you have the power of all 7 Sins. That makes you the best Abyss Envoy that could ever exist. Sigh, if my master was still alive, he would love to make you his disciple." Tabby said melancholically. "Well, the past is the past, so I just have to face the future with all my might..."

"You actually-"

"And as for you, female hooman, I can feel that you are the Envoy of the Holy Order Realm. How is that place faring these days? Are the angels there still worshipping ’Him’?’" Tabby suddenly asked as it focused its attention on Delia. . "My master is not happy with your worship to ’Him’, but with ’His’ power, my master cannot do anything about it..."

"Hey, can you let me talk alre-"

"Hm, if the Envoys of the Abyss and Holy Order Realm are here, then where is the Envoy of the Goetic Order Realm? Those demons should have been here earlier... Oh right, there’s that Demon General. Wait, he’s dead? That’s too bad..." At this point, the formality on Tabby’s voice was replaced by a casual one, making him sound like a tourist looking at different attractions.

Such change made Tabby sound less reliable, although Alex and Delia has no way to make this cat shut up now.

"Ah, and this planet was right at the edge of the Primordial Serpent Realm. That’s a little dangerous. Just one more flick from the snake, and this planet could fall of course... Hm, I wonder if that snake is still alive. Maybe it was replaced by a new one? Hey there, male hooman. Do you know if the Primordial Serpent underwent its rebirth already?"

"How the hell would I know?" Alex replied testily. "How can a large snake even undergo a rebirth with all the people living on it? Are we supposed to feel that?"

"Oh, so you and that female hooman does not know. That must mean that it still had not undergone rebirth..." Tabby muttered as it let out human-like ’hm’. "...If the Primordial Serpent did not have its rebirth, that must mean that one Eon has not passed yet... If that’s true, then the time I spent here after my master’s death is just short. Huh, I did not notice that."

"...."

"Male hooman, how old are you actually? I can see that you are young, but you must not be that young, right? The Abyss does not accept minors after all-"

"Oh god, this cat is not going to stop talking like this, right?" Alex thought with despair, as he realized that the cat must have really spent a lot of time by itself. "Tsk, and it just told us that the Infernal Monarch has conquered four different Realms(Abyss Realm, Primordial Serpent Realm, Goetic Order Realm, Holy Order Realm)... I want to hear more about that, but this cat is actually tyring to interview us now? Is there something wrong with this cat’s head? Tsk, I want to learn more about the past! I am not interested in these interviews!"
