I, the little cat, am a substitute for others who are starving and thin

But would a cat feel guilty if it killed a human? Cats are such despicable creatures that they would repeatedly tease a sparrow to kill it and then discard it to pass the time!

He didn't want to gamble his resurrection on this cat.

But is this little girl the owner of this cat? Despite her Asian appearance, she's surprisingly sweet and lovable. She probably never imagined her beloved cat would abandon her one day and run off somewhere. After all, cats are just like that; once they find something interesting, they'll abandon their home without a second thought...

No, do they see home?

laugh.

"Let's throw it away..."

"There's no such thing as absolute fairness in this world, Cat."

Maomao understood the true meaning of the words of the Lord of the Corpses.

"Deal." Yimi said.

Its throat was strangled by the tree roots, so that its voice sounded a little hoarse.

"So you can talk, is this also the function of the remains?"

Yimi did not answer. His eyes, ears, legs, hands, and spine automatically fell off and appeared in front of Aiser. They even automatically merged with him under his shocked expression.

"how……"

Did the body acknowledge him?

It was unbelievable. How could a sinner like him gain the recognition of the corpse? His purpose in transferring his sins to others was not only to eliminate his guilt, but also to complete the purification and gain the recognition of the corpse.

Not out of desire for this act, but as a verification that he is no longer a sin bearer!

And now, the remains, or rather, the saint himself, have recognized him! Could it be that even though his sins have not been washed away, he still possesses the nobility recognized by the saint's remains?

"Let's trade." The cat spoke again, and the lignification on its body seemed to be alleviated.

"Trade?" Ishar was momentarily stunned, then understood. "Ah... My goal is indeed the remains. It's normal for you to want to hand over the remains and beg for mercy under the endless pressure of 'abandoned things'."

"It's incredible! You're just a cat, yet you can talk and even display human emotions and behaviors. It's a shame that in terms of intelligence, you're probably not even as smart as a human child."

Issar was in a good mood and didn't mind talking to Yimi for a few more words: "Since I have already got what I need, why should I forgive you?"

He took out a box of matches and a barrel of oil that he had prepared in advance, ready to set the place on fire directly.

He would retreat when the flames were burning instead of killing the opponent within his ability. Otherwise, wouldn't Tiangang be the one bearing the opponent's "sins"?

"You, accepted it."

Aysar's behavior was equivalent to accepting the body abandoned by the cat.

Woodiness had covered Yimi's eyeballs, so that Aesar could not see its gaze, but even if he could see it, he would not be able to read anything from the cat's pupils.

The transaction is established.

P.S. Thanks to the winner of [夊祜], thanks to the boss~

Thanks to Kanatayk for the dog food, and thanks to the boss~

Thank you all for your support! Love you all~

Chapter 20: Famine

"what?"

Issar was confused at first, then subconsciously felt a chill.

A new human figure seemed to be reflected in his eyes, which had poor night vision, but because the environment was too noisy, he could not tell at first whether it was the thing that the cat had abandoned.

That's when the sun has already set.

One of the humanoid's arms was outstretched, embracing the cat, which had almost completely transformed into a tree root. In the other hand, it held two tray-like objects...

No, that's not a tray, that's a scale!

In the darkness, he stared at Issar with his golden eyes, without any emotion in them.

This is a stand, and it has the same physical appearance as his "Civil War" stand!

So this cat has never shown its stand ability from beginning to end!

"Hungry and Thin ACT 2"

Or should I say -

“‘FAMINE!!’”

"you?"

The lignification disappeared, and only a thin film remained to bind the cat. At this moment, the spring water was finally digested.

Aesar tried to take a step back, but felt himself tripped by something.

It was tree roots! The roots growing at his ankles were rapidly spreading to his kidneys at an irreversible speed!

"So this is your ability?!"

"That's fair." The cat looked at Aesar and slowly climbed up from the ground, holding up the film.

At least Yimi unilaterally thought that this was fair. The price of taking the body from her was that the despicable person deserved to die, and this was exactly what Maomao wanted.

This is all she wants now. It is a feeling that Maomao cannot understand with other words for the time being. She will not allow this despicable substitute to appear in front of her in the appearance of her mother!

Issar got what he wanted, and Yimi also got what she wanted. This was certainly fair. Issar accepted the body, which was equivalent to his agreement to this fair transaction.

"Are you kidding me, you bastard who's trying to dye his color to increase his value!" Isaac could no longer stand. When he shouted this, the spreading roots almost immediately reached his neck.

"What a bullshit deal! It's not even a deal without my knowledge!"

He couldn't accept it. How could a victory that was sure to win be reversed at the last moment?

The stand-in holding the scales in the darkness did not say anything about this, but the pair of eyes flashing with golden light seemed to have more meaning.

"you……"

The tree roots had completely blocked Issar's throat.

No, it's not over yet, his life has not ended yet!

Yes, there is a second part to the "Civil War". After this cat kills him, after killing him within the scope of the "Civil War", he will be resurrected as the object abandoned by the other party, and resurrected...

Aesar turned into a human-shaped tree root. All the discarded objects transformed by the "Civil and Civil War" and the thin film wrapped around Yimi's body disappeared.

"Congratulations to the host for achieving [One penny of silver buys one liter of wheat, one penny of silver buys three liters of barley, oil and wine must not be wasted], and rewarded with 20% portal energy."

Yimi shook his hair and did not observe the substitute manifested by his spiritual body. Instead, he looked at the almost complete body that had split from Issar's body and automatically merged with the 'torso' part of Issar himself.

To be precise, it was behind the window that the bodies were leaning against.

For some reason, even though there was no body on him, Yimi could still feel the location of the body, as if there was one hiding behind the window.

"Did you notice? I didn't expect that the person who helped me collect all the remains wasn't a human."

A handsome blond man with slightly overweight blond hair showed his side face to look into the house.

President Trump... Fani Valentine.

Compared to his first appearance a few days ago, he had lost more than a circle of weight. The reason was that he thought the saint's body was in Johnny Joestar's hands, so he personally led an army to cause trouble for the other party. However, he did not want to describe in detail what exactly happened between him and the cripple.

"Thank you for your hard work. As a reward, I will let you die in front of me with dignity."

A stand-in with a humanoid animal face and long ears on its head appeared behind this person. At first glance, it looked like a large blue rabbit.

Then, the substitute broke in through the window at terrifying speed.

"Well--"

ACT 2 knocked it away with one punch, but the main purpose of this stand was not to engage in physical combat. It used its agility to pull out an American flag and brush it over Yimi's head.

"Dongqiang~"

----------

In Yimi's eyes, nothing strange seemed to have happened. The only abnormality was that the flag covering the cat's head disappeared in an instant.

The house was still the same house, but President Valentine, who had just been standing outside the window, was nowhere to be seen. Even Issar, who had completely turned into a tree root, and the almost intact remains of the saint in the corner of the wall had disappeared.

Apart from this, the biggest anomaly was that the window broken by Valentine's stand-in appeared in front of Yimi in an intact state.

"Gone."

Yimi couldn't understand, what it couldn't understand was the trace of the body.

Even now, it can still feel the presence of the remains, but this is what really puzzles the cat, because its intuition tells it that the remains are not far in front of it, but both its vision and smell remind it that this is just an abandoned house full of dust, and there is not even any smell of any living creature having been here.

Even if all the remains of the saints were lost at once, the golden light of the spiritual power did not diminish at all, as if it was not rendered from the outside, but was its original color.

Swinging his tail, Yimi looked at his stand which now had a physical appearance.

The loose sackcloth he wore could not conceal his emaciated appearance, and the scales he held in his hand were the only ornament on his body.

The linen extended upwards to form a wide hood, hiding the entire face in shadow. The only thing visible was the bright golden eyes without any distractions. He was half-squatting, looking ahead, always waiting for Yimi's next move.

Unlike the normal stand-ins with strange shapes and bright colors, at first glance it looks like an ordinary human being fleeing famine. Only the shadow that makes it impossible to see the face from any angle can highlight its uniqueness.

He is not perfect.

Somehow Yimi knew this.

As soon as he thought of it, a black horse jumped out of nowhere, making the already small room even more crowded.

"It's as easy as throwing a baby with a gold necklace into the trash can." Valentine rubbed his wrist, which felt as if it had been hit by a wooden hammer.

A stand is the spiritual embodiment of a living being, but when the stand is damaged, the original body will also be damaged. However, this disadvantage is not a big deal for him.

"What an impressive stand-in."

He was referring to the cat, but what he really cared about was not only Yimi's substitute, but also the fact that he had searched in countless parallel worlds but had not found another cat that looked like a panda, so he could not use the repulsion of parallel worlds to directly eliminate it.

So far, apart from his Stand "D4C", only the Saint's remains have this kind of independence. Could it be that the cat is something similar to the Saint's remains...

Valentine thought of the scales that were the main feature of the stand-in, and the inexplicable desire to collect corpses even though it was just a cat, and seemed to understand something.

"Trial..."
