"Wake up-!"
The meowing of a cat reverberated through the night, but it was soon blown away by the wind. It was as if it could not even touch Bohemia, who was standing in the middle of the road.
She was frozen in a position where she was about to turn around and run away. Strands of hair fell on her eyelids and eyelashes, but she could not blink at all.
That blurry, dirty color gradually crept up her calves and waist. When it reached her neck, a hand with slender fingers emerged from the Chaos. The hand stopped on Bohemia's neck, opened and closed, and slowly gripped her throat.
As her face rapidly turned red, a human head without a single strand of hair suddenly floated out from the primal chaos. It aimed at her face and slowly opened a deep hole-like mouth.
The cat doctor, who was hiding in the five-star hotel, witnessed everything. He couldn't help but let out a trembling gurgle.
Just a few minutes ago, he thought that he had escaped into the tunnel together with Bohemia.
He could still remember the dimly lit street lamps in the tunnel and the cool breeze from the other end of the tunnel. They had run for more than half of the tunnel in one go. Only after they had gotten rid of the Chaos that could imitate the internal structure of an object, did they dare to stop and take a breather.
It was not until the cat doctor took out the [Five Star Hotel] and beckoned Bohemia to enter the hotel with him. He sat behind the hotel sign for a while before he started to feel that something was amiss. He had a feeling that he saw something out of the corner of his eyes, something that shouldn't be there, and it made him restless.
However, every time he turned around, Bohemia's face was still the same. From the cat's point of view, he was looking at her calm and expressionless side profile.
When he looked up for the fifth time, he could not help but take a few steps forward.
The other side of Bohemia's face was slowly elongating, as if a bean sprout was about to grow out of her face. She was like an ice cream that had been soaked in water. The color and edges of her face were constantly diluting, dissipating, and gradually dissolving. After a few minutes, not even a trace of her face was left.
The thing that followed it in was not a real person at all. It only existed in its imagination!
Miaomiao Hu was shocked. He looked past the signboard and realized that it was still the place where the car had crashed. The real Bohemia did not even check into the hotel with him. She was still standing outside in a daze.
They had thought that they had run away for half a day, but they hadn't even moved from their original position. Looking around, there was not even a tunnel nearby. Everything that had just happened was an illusion.
"His cognitive function must have been messed up," Kitten said to himself, his voice trembling with nervousness. "Otherwise, how could there be no reaction at all..."
After entering the [Five-Star Hotel], which could isolate external damage and negative influences, his disordered cognitive functions finally recovered bit by bit. As his brain stabilized, Meowie Hu could finally "see" the real world again.
Meanwhile, in the real world, the dirty mass of Chaos pulled itself away from the road and waddled toward Bohemia. The place where it came out from was the real road, exactly the same as the one it had disguised earlier.
But how did it cause their cognitive functions to go haywire?
Was it because both of them were walking on the road and had physical contact with each other?
The cat doctor could only "wake" Bohemia up if he could figure out the reason why she was in danger. But...
At that moment, the torn, deep mouth had already swallowed half of Bohemia's head. Only the tip of her nose, her pale lips, and her petite chin could be seen.
The cat doctor paced around anxiously. He rubbed his sweaty paws and decided to take another risk. He popped his head out from behind the hotel signboard and shouted at the mass of Chaos that had left the ground, "Hey! Look, I'm out. Don't you want to absorb me as well? "
Just as half of Bohemia's ear was about to disappear into the huge mouth, he stopped. This thing did not use the voice of the hair that it had created, so every word it said could be heard clearly, "Hotel, hotel, this is real estate."
The hair on Meowie Hu's neck suddenly stood up.
"I've seen you come in and out a few times, but you still stay in the same place..."
The voice of the mass of Chaos also sounded like a mass of Chaos. There was no difference between a man and a woman. Every word was in the most direct form of meaning, striking and knocking on the brain nerves. It was impossible not to hear it — "If you want to save her, why don't you slowly move closer and pull her into the hotel? If you want to escape, why don't you slowly move away and wait until you reach a safe place before escaping? "
As he spoke, he continued to swallow Bohemia.
"... I think the answer is simple. This Special Item of yours is very powerful. People who can't afford to pay for a room can't even take a step into the hotel. But the price is not small. After you release it, you can't move anymore... "
"Hmm, I guess if you put it away now, you won't be able to release it immediately, right?"
The tip of Bohemia's nose had already disappeared.
"I've thought about it carefully. If that's the case... let me absorb her first... You and your hotel can't escape anyway..."
The cat doctor stood stiffly behind the hotel signboard. His four paws dug into the ground. For a moment, his mind was buzzing, but he couldn't think of a solution to the crisis at hand. How exactly did this thing affect his cognition?
Would Bohemia die immediately after swallowing the head?
The mass of Chaos seemed to understand the cat doctor's current helplessness. There was a hint of joy in its voice, "Don't you want to try attacking me? Be it a Special Item or an ability... "
The little cat let out another purr. Wherever he went, he was loved by people. He didn't even have the chance to fight with people. How could he attack this chaotic thing?
“You
Your words... "
When the low female voice rang out, it was as if a gust of wind had blown through the night. For a moment, even Meowie Hu didn't realize what was happening.
“You
Your eyes... "
Bohemia's lips were slightly parted before she swallowed them. Her voice was flat, but her words were getting clearer and clearer — "You
Hatefulness... "
The muffled, dirty Chaos paused once again.
"Your cognitive functions have obviously failed, but you still have a life-saving trick that can be activated without conscious thought? I didn't expect you to have so many tricks up your sleeves... It doesn't matter. Any attack that hits me will become a part of me... "
The cat doctor was trembling nervously. He widened his eyes and watched as Bohemia's lips opened and closed gently. Then, she calmly uttered the next line of the poem.
“But
still，
air，
rise.”
