Chapter 31
Chapter Thirty-One: Any Punishment Can Be Directed At Me!
No… It must be because this guy did something to me! Otherwise, why would I act like this?
Dream Moon, as usual, attributed all the problems to Bai Yu. At this moment, she felt the silk threads binding her suddenly disappear, causing her to fall from the sky back to the ground.
“Plunk.”
Instinctively, Dream Moon landed on all fours and lowered her body to release the force, then raised herself up with her hands in what she thought was an elegant cat-like pose…
Wait! What am I doing?
Rising abruptly from the ground, Dream Moon couldn’t understand her psychological state! Since she was electrocuted by the two puppets, she had instinctively started acting like a cat, and her movements were even more cat-like than a real cat!
After all, even if you asked a regular person to imitate a cat, they might not do it so convincingly. Dream Moon’s natural agility while crawling around looked so genuine that no one would doubt she was originally a cat!
This guy must have injected some kind of drug into her while she was sleeping, like a potion to transform her into a cat-type monster…
Thinking about being injected with such a thing, Dream Moon should feel angry and scared… She should fear becoming an inhuman entity! She should desperately tackle Bai Yu and stab him with her claws on his neck, losing her mind to interrogate him about the potion…
But in reality, Dream Moon didn’t feel any urgency, and even had the leisure to think about pretending to go berserk to bully Bai Yu… As if transforming into a cat-type monster wasn’t a frightening thing to her.
Since the injection has already been done, even if I subdue Bai Yu now, it wouldn’t make a difference, and it would reveal that my memories have returned, affecting the grand plan… There’s no need for that!
Dream Moon thought without any pressure, completely free of tension. She blinked at Bai Yu, noticing his expression was similar to when he had questioned her about remembering how to walk before.
Back then, he realized the magic he cast on her had different effects than he imagined. So what about now? What happened that was contrary to his expectations? For example, was there a problem with the potion?
Dream Moon probably never dreamed that Bai Yu was thinking about why a magic girl’s magic core could turn into a beast core. If she knew this, she wouldn’t be so carefree and relaxed…
Bai Yu, on the other hand, held his chin, staring at Dream Moon’s body for a long time before making a decision in his heart.
It seems the interrogation of Pabi needs to be expedited.
Afterward, Bai Yu’s expression returned to its usual relaxed demeanor. He walked up to Dream Moon and teased her, “Speaking of which, you just called me a perverted master, right? To dare slander your own master, what a bold move!”
What’s slander? You are clearly the pervert! The pervert who keeps magic girls! The pervert who wants to turn magic girls into cat monsters!
While cursing internally, Dream Moon smiled innocently, “Master, what are you talking about? I don’t remember anything that happened just now! I’m just a lowly little pet… How could I call you a pervert?”
Dream Moon had learned how to deal with Bai Yu—just act stupid, play dumb, and act cute! Especially using an innocent expression to give him unintentional benefits, which seemed to work best on him!
Huh?
Hearing this, Bai Yu’s expression became thoughtful. But the next second, he shoved his finger into Dream Moon’s mouth, saying unreasonably, “Still daring to talk back? The fact is, you said it! You can’t even beat ten wooden dolls, you’re truly a useless pet cat!”
Who said I can’t beat them… Oh, I just said I lost my memory.
So, Dream Moon began to speak vaguely, “I’m sorry~~ I’m just a useless, foolish pet, please punish me~~”
Words that she would find extremely embarrassing, Dream Moon could say without any psychological burden. Because at this moment, she felt an inexplicable itch, as if being treated like a cat by Bai Yu would make her happy.
Clearly, this thought is wrong…
Blinking her eyes, Dream Moon felt herself falling deeper into something… But thinking about having been injected with monster transformation potion, she felt she couldn’t go back!
Surely, this is a very sad matter, but she couldn’t feel any distress. Perhaps because she was doing something self-sacrificing? Giving up herself to end the long battle between magic girls and the monster organization… Nothing could be better than this~~~
“Miaow~~~”
At this moment, Dream Moon felt a strong sense of dedication! Even if she turned into a monster, she had to dedicate everything to the master… No, for the magic girl camp!
After eliminating the monster organization, she would take the master to a place where no one could find them… She definitely wouldn’t bite him. Then she would keep the master as a pet in a secret room!
Though she said many things in her heart, in the end, Dream Moon just wanted to enjoy the happiness of the moment guilt-free! Bai Yu only teased her for a while before pulling his hand back.
“Huh?”
Wagging her tail, Dream Moon curiously stared at Bai Yu. Given her understanding of the master, he shouldn’t be the kind of person who could stop in such moments!
Surely, any punishment can be directed at me… Since I’ve decided to dedicate everything to the master… the magic girl camp! So whatever you do to me is fine~~~
“There’s an emergency, the rest of the punishment will wait until I return.”
As Bai Yu walked toward the door, some matters needed to be clarified before he could feel at ease. He needed to understand what would happen after the magic girl’s magic core fully transformed into a beast core!
If it was simply a transformation into an irrational magic beast, he had ways to handle it. But if the magic girl turned into some unknown existence, he needed to figure that out first!
Huh? You just made up your mind and left??! I’ve already made up my mind, damn it!
Watching Bai Yu disappear behind the door, Dream Moon immediately felt a sense of emptiness. She scratched the ground with her paw, feeling the dry, itchy sensation become harder to suppress!
“Why… does this power feel so captivating to use now?”
Looking at her cat-like paw, Dream Moon muttered to herself, “Even though this power… is much weaker compared to a magic girl.”
