Luo Yu paused for a moment, then replied to the other party.

Luo Yu: [Of course I know that. She's at the table next to mine. You ran into her?]

Jianzi: [Yeah, I didn't bring lunch today, so I went to the cafeteria with Xiaohua. We ran into this on the way, and it gave me quite a fright! It's the first time I've ever seen someone with so many evil spirits around them, and a black cat at that! Luo Yu, are you really okay?]

Luo Yu: [Don't worry, everything's fine for now. Those cat spirits saw me, but they didn't attack me. I'll investigate why later. Just go eat. By the way, weren't you with your friends? How come you have time to message me?]

Jianzi: [Hehe, I'm making an excuse to go to the restroom, I can't talk to you anymore, I have to go out, I can't keep Xiaohua waiting!]

Upon seeing the message from Yotsuya Miko, Luo Yu smiled.

Now that the problem with her Yin-Yang Eyes has been resolved, Miko Yotsuya can freely choose to activate or deactivate her Yin-Yang Eyes.

Outside of school, she usually keeps the area closed, since accidents can easily happen in the city, such as encountering powerful evil spirits or cursed spirits.

At school, with Luo Yu around, Yotsuya Miko was able to use her Yin-Yang Eyes to observe more effectively.

If you really encounter an evil spirit, you can seek help from Luo Yu, just like you did today.

With the problem that had been bothering her resolved, Yotsuya Miko became much more cheerful.

Luo Yu put down her phone, smiled, and continued eating her lunch.

At 12:45 pm, Yukino Yukinoshita returned to her class.

The evil cats remained clinging to the girl, showing no sign of leaving.

After a brief observation, Luo Yu found that Yukino Yukinoshita's aura was not chaotic at all, and she was still in a state of high spirits.

As Luo Yu flipped through the novel in his hand, he began to think.

Based on my understanding over this period of time, evil spirits are born partly because living beings carry immense resentment when they die, which is why they become evil spirits.

Some are formed from a collection of evil thoughts, and these are mostly not human in form, making them even more terrifying and disgusting.

As for the cats on Yukino Yukinoshita's body, they must have encountered something that turned them into evil spirits.

I just don't know why she's clinging to Yukino Yukinoshita. Could it be because she's a cat lover?

As Luo Yu pondered this, some guesses began to form in his mind.

Let's investigate a bit later. Although these cats haven't done anything wrong now, it doesn't mean that accidents won't happen in the future.

As the afternoon classes went by, Luo Yu would occasionally observe Yukino Yukinoshita to make sure that she was mentally sound.

Then, it was time for school to end.

Today, Yotsuya Miko didn't come over, and her friend Yurikawa Kaho insisted on dragging her shopping, so Luo Yu bought some groceries and went home.

As expected, Lani wasn't on the first floor after entering the house.

After putting the ingredients in the refrigerator, Luo Yu went upstairs, opened the door to the e-sports room, and saw Lani sitting in a chair with a hitbox on her lap, controlling Ken to unleash combos on her opponent Akuma, and winning the game with a cool finishing move.

After finishing the game, Lani logged out and looked at Luo Yu, saying, "Your Majesty, welcome back."

Luo Yu walked over with a smile and affectionately pinched Lani's cheek: "You've been sitting here playing games all afternoon? You're becoming a gaming addict."

Lani calmly replied, "The game is indeed very fun and addictive, but please don't call me a 'young girl' or anything like that. I can't even remember how old I am."

Pulling up a chair and sitting down, he looked at Lani, who had already reached the Gold rank, and said with a smile, "It's okay, as long as it looks like it. By the way, let me tell you about something I found at school today, it's related to Yukino Yukinoshita."

"Yukino Yukinoshita?" Lani blinked and looked at Luo Yu, asking, "The girl at the King's table? What happened to her?"

"I'm being haunted by evil spirits, and they're cat evil spirits, three of them."

After explaining Yukino Yukinoshita's situation, Luo Yu put his hands behind his head, looked at the computer screen that had been turned on, and said, "I guess Yukino Yukinoshita just happened to encounter a cat that had turned into an evil spirit, and then she got haunted by it."

After listening, Lani nodded: "So, Your Majesty, you didn't deal with those evil spirits?"

Luo Yu smiled and said, "Those little guys aren't very dangerous. They just meow to scare people. They all realized I'm not someone to mess with, so they didn't dare to meow at me. They just quietly lay on Yukino's shoulder and head. Generally speaking, such little things shouldn't become evil spirits. They must have encountered something in their previous lives. I can't just take action in the classroom. Let's observe them a bit more."

That's what they said, but when Luo Yu returned to his room after taking a shower that night, he saw Lani standing by the window, looking outside.

"what happened?"

Pointing out the window, Lani said, "Your Majesty, I see Yukino Yukinoshita. She has changed."

"kindness?"

Arriving beside Lani, Luo Yu looked outside and couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.

Under the cover of night, a girl dressed in white and dark blue denim jeans, with cat ears on her head and a black cat tail swaying behind her, was nimbly moving about on a rooftop not far away.

With Luo Yu's eyesight, he naturally recognized the other party as Yukino Yukinoshita at a glance.

"That's not right. Yukino Yukinoshita is just an ordinary person. Could it be the influence of those little kittens?"

This was the first time Luo Yu had encountered such a situation.

"Your Majesty, what are your plans next?"

Letting out a breath, Luo Yu immediately took out his coat and put it on, saying, "Of course I followed. After all, she was originally an ordinary person, and this change might have side effects. Besides, I'm also very curious about the reasons for these changes. Lani, do you want to come along?"

Lani nodded, then followed Luo Yu out the door, mounted her Torret, and chased after Yukino Yukinoshita.

Chapter 34 The Reasons for the Change (1/2)

Under the cover of night, the spirit horse galloped swiftly under Luo Yu's command.

Yukino Yukinoshita, who was leaping and bounding across the rooftop, clearly seemed to be searching for something.

Sitting in Luo Yu's lap, Lani looked at the figure leaping in the distance and said, "I'm certain she's human, and she didn't have any power when I saw her before. But now she can transform into this form and move so quickly. Your Majesty, will this change really have no side effects?"

Luo Yu shook his head, also observing.

"It's uncertain, but based on our past experience, there will definitely be side effects. And the fact that she's swaggering out like this will definitely cause a series of problems if this drags on. We need to resolve this as soon as possible. Torrett, speed things up, I'll give you a bonus later."

Torre 893t 964 shook his head, sneezed, and immediately quickened his pace.

Just then, Yukino Yukinoshita, who had jumped onto the roof of a house, twitched her black cat ears and locked onto the west. Her cat-like pupils widened, her expression fierce, and she leaped down, running faster.

Seeing this, Luo Yu said, "It looks like she's found her target. Let's follow her, Torret."

Soon, Yukino Yukinoshita, who had been running all the way, stopped at the entrance of an alley and looked at the man standing there, who was wearing a black hoodie, holding a pair of spiky tongs, and slowly walking towards a stray cat.

Sensing the movement behind him, the man, who clearly wasn't a good person, turned around and saw Yukino Yukinoshita with cat ears on her head, a tail swaying behind her, and sharp claws on her hands.

After a two-second pause, his eyes widened instantly.

"It's a monster!"

At the same moment he shouted, Yukino Yukinoshita bared her teeth and was about to rush over, but the next moment her head was held down.

Luo Yu arrived just in time, easily controlling the cat-like Yukino Yukinoshita with one hand, and then looked at the man.

Looking at the tools in his hand and the cat, Luo Yu suddenly realized, "So that's it. You're the one abusing the cat. No wonder she came out looking for it in the middle of the night."

The man looked at Luo Yu, who was wearing armor, and knew at a glance that he was not someone to be trifled with.

Just as he was about to turn and run away, he saw that another woman had appeared behind him at some point, picked up the cat, and looked at him with a cold expression, as if she were not looking at a living person.

"Your Majesty, how should we deal with this kind of person?"

Luo Yu gave Lani a reassuring look, then looked at Yukino Yukinoshita, who was restrained by his magic and unable to move despite her efforts, and said, "Don't worry, I won't let that guy get away with it, but there's no need for you to do it. You're just an ordinary girl."

As he spoke, he gently waved his left hand, and a chill spread out, extending from the ground and freezing the man instantly into a block of ice.

After freezing, Lani took out the Kalia Scepter and pointed it at the ground, and the cold air that was still spreading on the ground instantly turned into flames.

Surrounded by flames, the ice melted and disappeared in less than ten seconds, and the man inside vanished without a trace along with it.

After finishing, Luo Yu stroked the cat ears of Yukino Yukinoshita, who had transformed into a cat, and looked at her in a daze, saying, "You must be one of those cats I saw during the day, right? You gave Yukino Yukinoshita this power because of your shared feelings? Although I understand your thoughts, doing this is not good for her."

"Meow~~~"

With a meow, Yukino Yukinoshita's cat eyes gradually transformed into human eyes, and she slowly closed them, falling into a deep sleep.

He hugged her tightly, looking at the cat ears and tail that hadn't disappeared yet, and asked Lani in confusion, "What should we do?"

Lani, holding the kitten in her arms, gently stroked it and said, "Your Majesty, do you know where she lives?"

Luo Yu shook his head.

Then Lani said, "Since we don't know, we'll just have to take her back first. I'm quite curious about her current situation."

Given the current situation, the only option is to bring Yukino Yukinoshita back first.

Summoning Toret, Luo Yu carried Yukino Yukinoshita onto the mount, while Lani sat behind him, with the little cat still with her.

Looking at the kitten in Lani's arms, Luo Yu asked, "Do you want to take this little guy home and raise him?"

Lani looked at the black and white kitten in her arms, which was clearly not yet an adult, and said, "There are no creatures like this in the borderlands. I've watched some videos of kittens these past few days and I really like them. Is that okay?"

Luo Yu shrugged indifferently: "Sure, one more meal won't hurt. Let's go, Toret, let's go home."

Toret glanced at the woman who had suddenly appeared on his horse, gave Luo Yu a disapproving look, and then started walking.

Although the weight of just three people is nothing to the enormous spirit horse Toret, in the past he only had to carry Luo Yu, but now there are more and more people, and who knows what kind of heavyweights he will encounter in the future.

Well, I hope not.

A few minutes later, Luo Yu rode the Torret back home.

However, even though they arrived, the girl in their arms still did not wake up despite the bumpy journey.

After placing Yukino Yukinoshita on the sofa, Luo Yu checked her breathing and said, "Your condition is much better than before. You've consumed a lot of energy and stamina. It seems you're not used to this enhanced body yet and are a bit overdrawn."

Lani also came over, placed a hand on Yukino Yukinoshita's forehead, checked her, and nodded, saying, "She's recovering her energy and should wake up in a few minutes. Your Majesty, how do you plan to explain things to her when she wakes up?"

Luo Yu pointed to the cat-like features on the girl's body that hadn't yet recovered and said, "What else can we explain? Just tell the truth."

Then, he looked at the little cat following Lani's feet, used magic to control it, and floated it in front of him.

"Meow meow meow!!!"

The kitten had never encountered such a situation before. It flailed its limbs but remained floating in the air, utterly panicked.

Luo Yu said with a smile, "Stop calling me. You're all dirty and you still want to stay in my house? I'll give you a bath and check you out while I have time."

Then, a stream of warm water formed from magic appeared, enveloping the cat's body from the head down, and began to slowly rotate like a washing machine.

After struggling for a while, the cat realized that its struggle was futile, so it stopped moving and resigned itself to its fate with vacant eyes.

In just two minutes, Luo Yu finished cleaning the cat, then took a small towel and wiped its head and ears clean as well.

Although it was a stray cat, its ears weren't dirty, and it was in good health with no injuries.

After taking care of the cat, they put it in Lani's arms, and Yukino Yukinoshita, who was lying on the sofa, finally woke up.

Chapter 35 The Power of the Nekomata, Yukino Knows the Truth (2/2, Please Add to Favorites!)

Slowly opening her eyes, Yukino Yukinoshita felt pain all over her body, and her head was also foggy.

Blinking her eyes and staring at the unfamiliar ceiling, the girl was confused for a moment before realizing that this didn't seem to be her home.

Then, a somewhat familiar voice came to my ears.

"You're awake, how do you feel?"

Turning around, I saw my classmate Luo Yu sitting in a chair, smiling at me.

The girl's eyes widened instantly, and she sat up abruptly, covering her clothes with both hands.

"This is where?!"

Luo Yu looked at the other person's reaction speechlessly, then pointed to Lani sitting on the single sofa next to him, hugging her cat, and said, "Look carefully, I'm not the only one here. Also, this is my home. Before you understand the situation, I suggest you take a look at yourself right now."

After saying that, he took out his phone, turned on selfie mode, and pointed it at Yukino Yukinoshita.

Yukino Yukinoshita was completely dumbfounded when she saw the cat ears on her head in the camera lens.

He swallowed hard and raised his hand to touch it.

Yes, they are definitely cat ears. Given her frequent visits to cat cafes, she is absolutely certain.

Ranie Yukinoshita, who was holding the cat, was not recognized. She looked down and saw the slowly swaying tail behind her and the long, sharp claws at the tips of her fingers.

"What... what's wrong with me?"

"Calm down?"

After the girl looked up at him, Luo Yu continued, "Think carefully about what you were doing before you lost consciousness."

After exchanging a glance with Luo Yu, Yukino Yukinoshita began to recall, saying, "I was in my apartment earlier, searching for news about Chiba abusing cats these past few days on my computer, but as I searched, I got more and more sleepy, and then I lost all memory of it."

As soon as I finished speaking, fragments began to slowly emerge in my mind, showing me jumping and moving forward on rooftops.

Finally, in a small alley, they found the person who was rumored to be abusing cats.
