Chapter 90.78 Give me a lick!
Persian cats, Siamese cats, British Shorthair cats.
Maine Coons, Ragdoll cats, Chinese Li Hua cats.
In the soft and alluring meows, Yukinoshita Yukino seemed to be in heaven, easily succumbing to the allure, helplessly squatting down to start whispering with a white Ragdoll kitten in front of her.
“Meow~”
“Meow.”
In the midst of unintelligible communication, a man and cat harmonized for quite some time. Just looking into the feline’s large azure blue eyes, which shared a bit of similarity with her own, made Yukinoshita melt.
Regrettably, although the girl loved cats, she couldn’t have any because the apartment she lived in prohibited pets. So generally, she could only enjoy them at cat cafes or via video feed online.
After caressing different cats, Yukinoshita finally left the pet area, one step at a time, still thinking about finding a gift for Yui Yuigahama. Even though she was reluctant to leave, time was running out.
Leaving the paradise of cats, Yukinoshita returned to a somewhat disoriented state.
Isn’t Yui thinking of learning to cook? Maybe give her an apron.
Lin Qi’s voice abruptly echoed in Yukinoshita’s mind.
Mr. Lin Qi? Yukinoshita blinked slightly, her tone unconsciously filled with a subtle hint of joy. Well, it makes sense. Let’s take your advice then.
She walked into a store that sold kitchen utensils, searched around, and picked up a blue apron with paw prints on it, tying it to herself. How does it feel?
Are you picking one for yourself?
Of course, for Yui.
Then suggest changing colors.
Thus, Yukinoshita picked up another pink gingham apron with bone patterns. After putting it on, she nodded approvingly. Indeed, this might better suit Yui’s taste.
After buying two aprons, Yukinoshita asked the clerk to package the apron intended for Yui along with a dog toy in a gift box.
The gifts are purchased. I’m heading back home… Is there anything else you want to buy?
Oh? You also have a gift? Lin Qi raised his eyebrows in surprise. His gaze fell on a nearby Sony official store. Let’s head over there.
…
Carrying numerous bags, Yukinoshita returned home, put down her things, and started preparing dinner.
“Hey, go get my…”
“Now it’s almost 6:30 PM, even Parasitic Bug can wait until after dinner at 7, no?” Yukinoshita sighed helplessly.
She didn’t understand why Lin Qi, who usually acted so composed, became so anxious now after she bought him a gaming console.
“I’m very急急, the king of 急.”
“No use in 急.”
Even though she spoke words of nonchalance, Yukinoshita quickly prepared dinner. After finishing, she handed over control of her body to Lin Qi.
From first-person perspective, she watched him enthusiastically tinkering with the new game console.
An hour later.
Lin Qi tiredly put down the controller, sighing, “Too simple.”
The games once tormenting him in his past life had now become incredibly easy in his hands.
On-screen characters performed attacks and evasions smoothly under his control, while what used to be a boastful claim of a flawless通关 became a basic operation.
Is this what it’s like to cheat the game with physical hacks? Really boring.
“Hmm, not playing anymore?” Yukinoshita asked. “We still have an hour before we meet.”
After buying this console for Lin Qi,
“Let’s talk about it later.” Lin Qi turned off the console, a slight smile appearing on his face as he said, “Speaking of which, I have a gift for you too.”
“Hmm? What gift?”
The girl blinked her eyes, surprised yet with a trace of anticipation.
Lin Qi formed a hand seal and softly commanded, “Hound.”
Shadow Technique Tenth Art: Value 60k points, purchased.
Using shadows as a medium to summon pre-summoned elemental beings with various abilities, it is a technique passed down through generations in the Toudou family.
Suddenly, the shadow beneath the girl extended, spreading across the ground, soon enveloping the entire living room.
The unexpected appearance made Yukinoshita fear another cursed spirit attack, instinctively tensing up. But soon after, she calmed down knowing Lin Qi controlled her body.
“Too much Curse Energy output, reduce it.” Lin Qi whispered, then lowered the energy inputted into the technique.
Soon, the vast shadow swiftly diminished to the size of a dining table.
“What are you doing?” Yukinoshita quickly noticed it was the result of Lin Qi’s actions, asking curiously.
“A gift for you.”
The instant Lin Qi finished speaking, the shadow changed shape, transforming into a wolf-like form similar to a shape-shifter, retreating in the blink of an eye, leaving a majestic giant white wolf standing in front of Yukinoshita.
Elemental beings possess a certain level of intelligence and are fearless, able to execute their summoner’s commands perfectly. Summoning elemental beings to battle is a common practice for Curse Sorcerers.
And the only command Lin Qi gave the white wolf was
“Lick!”
“Wolf!?” Yukinoshita was startled when she found that she had regained control of her body.
Not a problem by itself, except the white wolf stared at her fiercely and began moving slowly towards her.
Seeing the wolf suddenly extend its tongue and wag its tail swiftly—without the same proud demeanor from when it was summoned—
“Hold on!”
The girl let out a frightened whimper.
Two minutes later.
The white wolf closed its eyes, sticking out its tongue, lying in the girl’s arms like a giant husky, enjoying her affectionate strokes.
While Yukinoshita glared with reproach.
“Looks like it adjusted well,” Lin Qi complimented.
“This is the gift you prepared for me?” Yukinoshita gritted her teeth, questioning.
He pretended not to hear, forming another hand seal: “So, what about the second one, Yukinoshita?”
The shadow reappeared, and amidst the girl’s panic, a second black wolf emerged from the shadow.
