The Villain's Little Cat

172 Rooms <1>

General Ryan looked at the back where Kate was located and sighed deeply.

He hoped that things will end well in the future. He would never be able to accept it if things were to end up going badly.

‘That brat really only knows how to create trouble without knowing how to cover up the hole that he had dug.’

Sighing quietly, General Ryan slowly walked back to his post. Anyway, he was different from his son. He will not stay here because there was already the military barracks that was located not far from this research institute.

…

“I’ve become much stronger now.” Marc’s eyes lit up after he had finished absorbing the gem. He looked at the others around him and found out that they had finished earlier than him, making him a bit embarrassed.

It seemed that he was not the first to finish and the others should also be much stronger now.

Welp, who was he trying to show off to?

The others were all much better than him.

.....

He should have known about that.

“Wang! Wang!” <Master, you’re finally up! I’m so bored over here!> Robby quickly approached Marc and wagged his tail happily.

“Robby is indeed the best.” Marc smiled and rubbed his dog happily. Robby is indeed his best friend.

“Wang! Wang! Wang!” <Robby is hungry! Robby wants to eat something! hungry, Master!>

Marc: “…” This dog couldn’t be praised!

Robby had just made Marc felt that he was being paid attention to, but now this dog was actually clamoring for food again. This made Marc felt that Robby only approached him because Robby was hungry and wanted more food.

“Oh, you’re up now. Eat something first, Marc.” Lotte chuckled when she saw the interaction of these two. The daily laugh will definitely become more and more with Robby around.

This silly dog is really adorable.

“Thank you.” Marc smiled, feeling thankful and quickly forgetting the dog that only cared for food by his side.

“What’s your rank now?” Kyle asked as he distributed the roasted meat. He had naturally cooked the meat and then added some seasoning to make it taste better. Anyway, this was the best he could do without a stove or any other equipment.

The others were also already so hungry so they didn’t care.

“I’m rank 5 now.” Marc smiled.

“Wang! Wang! Wang!” <Me too! Me I’m now rang 5.>

Robby happily ran around in circles around Marc. It was as if he was saying that he was so happy that he had managed to reach rank 5 and wanted to celebrate it with his owner.

“Yes, Robby is good.” Marc smiled and patted Robby’s head. He was also happy that Robby could advance faster.

Following a group would indeed allow him to have more resources.

At the very least, it was better than when he had to struggle alone in that university and tried to take down the giant mutated animals one by one because of his limited strength and capabilities.

Lotte’s lips twitched. “Why do I feel that the animals in this group are all advancing faster than humans?”

She herself had reached rank 5, but she was not as exaggerated as this dog. Mind you, she had taken more gems as compared to this dog but the dog was at the same rank as her. She felt that the blow given by this dog was bigger than the blow from Little Kitty.

At the very least, she had seen Kyle fed Little Kitty with so many crystals and allowed her to take them all. Well, she still felt that Little Kitty was so fast, though.

“Don’t worry, your boyfriend will reach rank 6 soon enough.” Jake patted Lotte’s shoulder, trying to reassure her.

Dylan also nodded.

Dylan had reached rank 5 with 5 minor advancements while Jake was at rank 5 with 4 minor advancements. The two of them could be said to be very close to reaching the next rank as long as they practiced diligently or taking another gem that could help boost their rank.

Though, Dylan could faintly perceive that advancing from rank 5 with 5 advancements to rank 6 would take a considerable time. It felt as if there was a long road in front of him that he himself couldn’t explain the reason.

“That’s you and not me!” Lotte still didn’t feel consoled and glared at her boyfriend as if it was his fault.

Jake smiled sheepishly. “Well, at the very least, I can be your backing?”

Hearing his words, Lotte’s face turned red.

She felt that his words were a bit… uhm…

Turning her head, she saw the others were looking in their direction meaningfully and silently used her wind element, pushing Jake further away from her.

Jake saw Lotte’s embarrassed blush and wanted to laugh.

He felt that she’s always really cute.

“You’re indeed approaching rank 6, but there’s someone who’s faster than you,” Marc reminded from the side.

Jake’s face fell as he thought of Kyle.

“But this is unscientific. Shouldn’t people with only one element advance faster than people with more than 1 element?” Jake wanted to cry.

Lotte had two elements, which was why her progress had been pretty slow so far. However, it was not the case for Kyle and Kate who seemed to have been injected by stimulant and managed to overtake them in such a short period of time.

In fact, without taking these gems, it was estimated that they could never catch up with these two.

“Hard work is important.” Marc patted Jake. “But talent often also plays some role to determine the end result.”

Jake: “…” Are you coaxing me or hitting me in the head?

For some reason, Jake was sure that Marc was telling him that his talent was not as good as Kyle. Because of that, his speed could never be compared to Kyle’s speed in advancement.

It really felt like the truth… but Jake didn’t want to listen to it!
