“Ada-” Asong wanted to answer Aba’s jumbled-up questions one by one so that her prank doesn’t give this a childhood trauma but was interrupted by Aba.
“Ah, I can speak. Auntie, if I have turned into a jewel-eyed cat monster then how am I able to speak? How are we able to communicate? Or is it because you can understand monster language because you used to be a monster too.” Aba did not let Asong answer she kept on rambling about every thought that came to her mind, clear she not taking the trip to the afterlife positively and its effects weres starting to show.
“Oh, honey. Come here.” Asong picked up the jewel-eyed cat Aba into her arms feeling that her prank might have gotten too far, she might have broken her mischievous niece.
Rubbing the back of the jewel-eyed cat Ada, Asong whispered, “Aba, honey, calm down. You did not die, your soul is under my illusion.”
“Illusion?” Jewel-eyed cat Aba turned to look at Asong in confusion because this felt too real for it to be an illusion.
“Yes, this is my origin card ability. All of this is just a dream.” Asong explained to Aba the jewel-eyed cat and seeing the frightened, confused, and dependent look on the cat’s face Asong felt her niece was the most adorable Jewel-eyed cat monster in the world.
“So I did not die and turn into a cat monster? And all this is an illusion created by your origin card?” Aba asked Asong seeking assurance that she wasn’t really dead and she wasn’t saying all this to console her.
“Yes, honey. All this is a dream,” said Asong, feeling that if there were a Jewel-eyed cat cuteness contest her niece would bag the first, second, and all the prizes. One price each for her every priceless expression.
“So you did not turn young, you are still old?” Aba asked Asong.
Hearing her Aba, Asong’s facial expression twitched in sheer anger and the cat monster in her arms no longer felt cute. So she lifted it by its tail and answered, “No, I did turn young. Do you have an opinion about it?”
“Auntie, you are hurting me,” Aba complained.
“Little girl, this is a dream other than your embarrassment nothing else here is true. Today I am going to teach you how to respect your elders.” Asong answered Aba menacingly.
Aba gulped her saliva hearing her Aunt’s menacing tone, that was when she knew she had overplayed her hand. So she could only try her luck with an apology and flattery, “Auntie, don’t get angry. Now that you have regained you are youth. You look very beautiful, so much so that I want to start calling you big sister. Big sister, please let me go, I know I was wrong, I am sorry. I have learned my lesson please forgive.”
“Good that you have learned to accept your mistake. And as for you have learned your lesson let me be the judge of it.” Asong said with a mischievous grin. And soon a three-headed Cerberus monster manifested out of thin air, point at it Asong added, “Aba, do you know what the three-headed Cerberus monster heat the most?”
“No, I don’t know, Auntie” Aba answered as sweetly as possible hoping that it would have a favorable effect on whatever her aunt had planned to punish her with.
“Well, you are going to find it soon.” Saying that Asong swung and threw Aba the jewel-eyed cat into the air, yelling, “Go boy fetch.”
A few meters away from Asong Aba landed on her paws gracefully and turned to look at her aunt with doubt, not knowing what her aunt was up to but seeing the Cerberus run toward her with all its teeth out she felt a crisis from it, and finally realized the answer to her aunt’s question.
“Grandma, I will get you back for this,” yelled Aba as she ran for her life in this endless white plane. Jewel-eyed cats are not as fast as three-headed Cerberus but thanks to Asong’s adjustment, the Cerberus never seems to be able to catch up with Aba the jewel-eyed cat. And always miss her tail by a few inches.
“Haha, little delinquent, you are 100 years early to say those words to me.” Asong laughed as Aba ran for her life like no tomorrow. Now Asong felt that her jewel-eyed cat monster was the fastest jewel cat monster she had ever seen and it would win all the prizes if there were a jewel-eyed cat race competition.
“…” Outside, we could not see anything but hear the conversation between the aunt and niece duo and only feel bad for Aba. Not only was she turned into a cat monster but was also being chased by another monster known to prey on cat monsters. If it were back on earth, child services would be all over this case but this was not earth so Asong was in the clear.
“Ah!” Susan flinched seeing the Shell monster suddenly wave its tentacles and welcome everyone, “Do you guys want to come in too?”
“…” Everyone hesitated to answer Asong, but Agatha came forward, though she did not want to experience being swallowed by a shell monster she had to do it as how could she stand by as her princess was suffering.
“Agatha, great. You are going to love it.” Saying that the shell monster’s tentacles extended, wrapping around Agatha, it swallowed her through the mouth between the tentacles.
“Who’s next,” Asong asked enthusiastically.
“Fuck it, me.” Anna volunteered then Ann followed behind her Surprisingly so did Susan. I turned to look at Cole and he said, “Master Wyatt, we can’t be behind others can we now.” With that Cole too was swallowed by Asong’s shell monster.
“Wyatt, come on. Didn’t you complain that I didn’t let you read my card info? Now I am letting you experience it first hand, why are you holding back?” Asong persuaded.
