Uneasy daily life

The little black cat stretched out its paw, pressed it against the other's forehead, and patted it twice.

It's a very intelligent cat.

Should we find Knight a partner?

Is finding just one too few...?

Yukino looked at the other kittens and liked them more and more. She felt she didn't have enough cats. But too many cats would be hard to take care of. It was a pity that Shiro-kun avoided cats like the plague. Otherwise, she could try to get him to raise one.

"Wang Wang!"

Yukino Yukinoshita shivered. This wasn't the dog area, was it? She turned to look in the direction from which the barking was coming.

A small dog is walking Yui Yuigahama.

"Wait, Pancake, what are you doing running this way... Wait! Don't run around!"

Yui Yuigahama, carrying a broken collar, frantically chases after a small dog.

The puppy ran forward excitedly and freely, about to go around the person in front of it, but the person in front of it had no intention of letting it pass.

"Hey!"

Feng Bin and Hua squatted down, reached out and hugged the puppy, patted its head, and handed it to the other person: "Here you go."

"Thank you, thank you..." Yui Yuigahama thanked Toyohama and Hana, then looked up and noticed Yukino Yukinoshita next to her. She looked at the two of them and froze on the spot, "Eh? Yukino...?"

"Yuihama, what's wrong with you...?"

Just as Yukino Yukinoshita was about to speak, a cat's meow suddenly interrupted her.

"Meow--!"

The black cat let out a long, deep meow.

"Wang Wang!"

The puppy that Yui Yuigahama was holding also started barking forward, its little tail wagging rapidly.

The group initially thought this was normal, but things soon became abnormal.

"Meow!" "Meow!" "Meow meow~"

The pet shop owner, watching his cats who had always been free-roaming suddenly start meowing and becoming agitated, was at a loss—were his feline overlords about to rebel?!

A familiar yet unfamiliar figure came running hurriedly from ahead, looking somewhat flustered.

Who is that?

Yukino Yukinoshita and Yui Yuigahama were both a little confused, glancing closely at the person whose face was full of panic... Judging from the face and eyes... this person looked rather human...

Hikigaya? !

In a moment of panic, Yui Yuigahama's little dog suddenly leaped out of her arms and excitedly rushed towards Hachiman Hikigaya, grabbing his leg.

"Huh?! You? Wait—don't grab my leg!"

Hachiman Hikigaya's expression changed drastically, but he couldn't afford to run away and hurt the puppy. As soon as he slowed down, the pursuers behind him closed in.

According to the laws of the food chain, if Hachiman Hikigaya is running away, it means there must be a white shadow behind him.

Yukino Yukinoshita made a subconscious judgment, then widened her eyes and turned to look at the enthusiastic cats in the store. Her thoughts, which had been bewitched by the kittens, became clear.

"Wait—Bai-kun! This is the pet area..."

"Hehehe! Don't be shy, let me film... Holy crap!"

A black cat leaped out of the box used for playing, as if it had opened Pandora's box.

Chapter Ninety-Four: A Bewitching Consort in a Chaotic World (Mistaken)

Once upon a time, there were two kingdoms, one called Cat Kingdom and the other called Dog Kingdom.

Cat Kingdom and Dog Kingdom can't stand each other. One likes to lick itself clean, while the other likes to lick others dirty. One lives a quiet and peaceful life, while the other is noisy and burdened. One sees humans as their poop servants and enjoys the comfort of being cared for, while the other acts as a poop servant for humans and enjoys the pleasure of licking poop.

I say I'm going to catch a turtle, you catch a soft-shelled turtle; I say I'm going east, you go west; I want to catch a fish, you release it; I want to go upstairs, you remove the ladder. We're not exactly getting along perfectly, but at least we're like paragons of wisdom in the toilet—completely clueless.

These two countries, with such diametrically opposed customs and cultures, have lived in constant conflict since ancient times. Fortunately, as people's living standards have improved and the country has been established in a prime location, people are well-fed and well-rested, and have begun to be more civilized. Most conflicts are now just shouting at each other across the street. Apart from a few hot-blooded members fighting each other, there are not many disputes on a daily basis.

As for beings called humans, they are also completely different in the eyes of the Cat Kingdom and the Dog Kingdom.

For example, the cat kingdom believes that humans dislike scooping poop, and new poop scoopers initially complain, having to offer their bodies as a form of appeasement. The dog kingdom disagrees, claiming that if they try to help humans with poop scooping, they not only receive no praise but are also scolded and have their teeth scrubbed by a showerhead.

The Cat Kingdom has a rich history. In the past, when everyone was down on their luck, their ancestors mingled with humans and, by using their skills in catching mice and birds, successfully gained the respect of humans. Later, when humans became wealthy and conquered the world, their ancestors resolutely chose to conquer humans. After a long period of training, the Cat Kingdom gained loyal servants.

According to historical research, the Dog Kingdom believes that humans provided too much, including food and shelter, which won the loyalty of their ancestors. This allowed them to thrive in a safer, more food-rich environment. In return, they only needed to use their abilities to assist humans in hunting and guarding their settlements. Through years of cooperation, humans became the generous masters of the Dog Kingdom.

The vast ideological differences between the two countries were the trigger for the unrest.

The newly crowned queen of the cat kingdom has jet-black, smooth fur without a single blemish, and bright eyes as clear as the moon, capable of emitting a beautiful glow at night. She always maintains an elegant and neat demeanor, with a calm and unhurried languid temperament. She has won the favor and care of her temporary cat owner, and thus proclaimed herself queen.

Today, the king was watching a gladiatorial game performed by some foolish subordinates when he suddenly saw a beautiful woman.

The beauty was striking and elegant, her every step exuding a captivating charm that even a cat couldn't resist.

Even the proud king couldn't resist the impulse that welled up within her. Disregarding her decorum, she left her throne and strode forward to greet him. Halfway there, feeling that she had lost her grace, she slowed her pace and commanded authoritatively, "From this day forward, you are no longer a cat owner. You are promoted to my queen. Now, thank Your Majesty for your grace."

The beauty was startled, her expression filled with panic as she asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to forcibly take me as a woman?"

"Nonsense! You belong to me, how can you say you've forcibly taken me?"

The king arrogantly stated that the reason he didn't immediately embrace the beauty and kiss her was simply to indulge in some fun and be a little more elegant.

"I am deeply grateful for Your Majesty's kindness..." the beauty sighed, her pitiful appearance almost causing the king to lose his composure. "It's just that someone tried to take me away, and even Your Majesty could not resist. In the end, we are destined to be apart."

"What?! Who dares to steal the person I've set my sights on?!"

The king questioned her with displeasure, but before the beauty could answer, a series of urgent roars rang out from behind her. She turned around and saw that her subordinates, who were usually incredibly stupid, were now full of fanaticism, pushing and shoving each other, their lustful expressions completely devoid of the elegance of the cat kingdom's citizens.

"I am the king! My beauty, marry me!"

"I am the king! The beauty is mine! Who dares to take her from me?!"

"My beauty, if you marry me, I'm willing to give you half of my wealth (meaning I can touch you freely during the day)!"

"I'll give you my entire fortune (meaning you can touch it as you please)!"

"I'd be willing to be a beauty's dog!"

……

"Where has your arrogance gone? Where has your elegance gone? There are even those who claim they'd rather be dogs than cats! You bunch of traitors who have betrayed your ancestors, are you plotting a rebellion?!"

The king stared in disbelief, a lump in his throat, trembling with rage. Behind him, the beautiful woman sobbed softly, "Your Majesty, I fear we are destined to be apart. Even a king like yourself cannot silence the gossip of the people..."

"What talk of public opinion? They're just a bunch of traitors! Wait a moment, and I'll suppress all these rebels!"

The king resolutely turned back, and despite his valiant fight, he was overwhelmed by the utterly frenzied citizens of the cat kingdom.

"If I were to marry, it would be the strongest and most powerful cat in the world, the peerless Yingmao..."

The beauty said this as she fled.

"I am the strongest cat!"

The citizens of the Cat Kingdom, who adhere to elitism, are all their own kings.

Chaos reigned in the Cat Kingdom, the monarchy was lost, cats divided their territories, and war raged across the land.

This fierce fighting gradually put immense pressure on the cats.

"Why don't we all go together and share the beauty?"

A smart cat offered a constructive suggestion, to which everyone responded with, "You just...you farted perfectly!"

Just as the citizens of the Cat Kingdom were about to seize the beauty, one of them, covered in drool and with disheveled fur, frantically reported, "Oh no! Those idiots from the Dog Kingdom have launched an attack on us! And the beauty is leading them!"

"what?!"

The cats were all startled.

Clearly, this was a trap and a snare. Amidst the chaos and infighting in the Cat Kingdom, Mei Huanren was chased to the Dog Kingdom by several cats attempting to rob her. There, she offered her advice to the Dog Kingdom's king: "Your Majesty! Now is the perfect opportunity! Quickly send troops to attack the Cat Kingdom!"

The Dog King, also known as the Husky, was famous for his honest and simple nature. He asked in bewilderment, "Everyone is well-fed, so why send troops to attack the Cat Kingdom?"

"A good opportunity missed will only bring trouble; once it's gone, it will never come again!"

"I don't understand," the dog king said honestly.

The beauty remained calm and quickly adjusted her thoughts, whispering seductively with a wicked heart: "You can sit on the cat with your butt, you can lick the cat to your heart's content, and you can rub against the cat all over."

"Army attack!"

The dog king perked up at the thought of a bright future.

The dogs' expedition only exacerbated the already raging war on the land. Many of the cat kingdom's citizens had already endured a civil war and were severely weakened. One by one, they were pinned down and licked by the dogs, suffering immense humiliation. At this critical moment, the cat king, with his agile and skillful martial prowess, defeated several dog generals and raised his voice in a rallying cry.

"Fight, gentlemen! Down with the dog kingdom! Rescue the beauty!"

I haven't even licked it yet, how can I fail here?!

The cat kingdom's citizens, who were on the verge of collapse, rallied their spirits and, under the leadership of their cat king, put up a fierce resistance. Relying on their exceptional individual combat abilities, they even attempted a counterattack. However, at this moment, the beauty joined the battlefield and surprisingly took command of the dog kingdom's army: "Damn cat kingdom, let me show you the might of my dog ​​army! Charge! Lick a stink cat and give it a bone!"

The Cat King was furious. This was a spy from the Dog Kingdom?! I'd fallen for a honey trap?! Damn it… if it was a honey trap, at least let me lick it to my heart's content first!

The battle was fierce and desperate. Encouraged, the Dog Kingdom army launched a fierce offensive and, relying on its superior physique, quickly defeated the Cat Kingdom forces.

Watching helplessly as his last few companions were pounced on, their pitiful howls escaping as they were licked until they were filthy, the cat king experienced the helplessness of a king on his deathbed. He had once possessed everything, and yet everything belonged to the past…

"The braver you are, the poorer you become; right and wrong, success and failure, all turn to nothing; a dream of wealth and glory is but a fleeting illusion."

The Cat King let out a long, sorrowful cry, and with a mighty effort, he repelled another dog. Looking around at the surrounding area, all the dogs were filled with fear: "A cat cannot be insulted! Who dares to fight me to the death?!"

The few citizens of the dog kingdom separated, and the beauty stepped out from among them, holding a bag in her hand, and said: "I have come to fight you to the death and send the king on his way!"

The Cat King stared at the culprit with a complex expression.

If they hadn't acted so gracefully, and had been quicker in snatching the beauty, perhaps there wouldn't have been the subsequent civil war...

If, during the civil war, the choice wasn't to determine the strongest cat, but instead to win over the beauty...

in case……

"Your Majesty is truly impervious to reason."

The beauty saw right through the cat king's thoughts: "Watch out—take this!"

The Cat King quickly came to his senses, but he had already missed the best opportunity to respond—he was indeed exhausted from the long battle, but could his opponent be even faster than him?!

puff!

The cat king suddenly felt dizzy and realized that he had been covered by a bag from head to tail, and could not struggle.

A sad thought flashed through her mind...

A honey trap should at least require a deposit!

This is clearly a case of mistaking a cat for a dog!

……

……

The highly anticipated cat-and-dog battle, which drew crowds of onlookers and photographers, has come to an end.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

The husky barked a few times.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

The slightly disheveled white figure, covered in cat fur, responded with a few shouts.

After a pleasant collaboration, the dogs, having won a great victory, were happily led back by the pet shop owner. Meanwhile, the cats, who had suffered a severe attack from the licking dogs and were both mentally and physically traumatized, were also called back by the shop owner, who was trying not to laugh, to be cleaned and groomed. The shop owner even carried the little black cat that was covered in a garbage bag.

Just letting your pet roam freely in the store, and you unexpectedly encounter a powerful advertisement – ​​isn't that a wonderful thing? After witnessing such a spectacular cat-and-dog battle, some customers will surely come to see the pets and be interested in buying one.

The two shop owners even thought Bai Ying was an animal taming expert and wanted to ask him to turn his accidental encounter into a business and then make the business bigger and stronger. Bai Ying solemnly refused to do so - only a frivolous person would hang out with felines all day long!

"A single word can grant land and establish a border, a single plan can lead to the destruction of a nation and the extermination of a race, and a pack of cats can be brutally slaughtered by a pack of dogs... The beautiful rivers and mountains remain, but who will take the stage after the song ends today? A few lines of names and the blood of the common people, good and evil will ultimately end up as nothing but white."

Bai Ying pondered and summarized the story, then took a picture of Hachiman Hikigaya in a suit and tie with her phone, sighing as she brought the story to a close: "Hachiman's anthropomorphic disguise will remain on my phone; I can take it out and savor it from time to time!"

"Let me capture the minister's ruthless and manipulative demeanor!"
