Chapter 45: 15. Miao, Super Evolution!

"I’m home, Miao."

"Meow~"

In the vibrant South District, on the sixth floor of an old apartment building, in front of the east-facing room.

Yan Huan used his keys to open the door, revealing the one-bedroom, living room unit of forty square meters.

Turning on the corridor lights, the somewhat cramped but tidy space inside was revealed.

Near the door, the kitchen counter was on one side of the corridor, and on the other side was a separate wet and dry bathroom.

It was almost ten o’clock, mainly because the bus didn’t go directly to the apartment, so Yan Huan had to transfer to the subway on the way, which made him arrive late.

Miao was wagging its tail, running back and forth in the living room, surveying Yan Huan’s Mickey Mouse house.

Meanwhile, Yan Huan tidied up the luggage in his backpack, hanging the clean clothes up, and tossing the dirty shirts into the laundry basket.

Taking out his phone, Ye Lan had just sent a message asking,

"Are you home yet, Xiao Huan?"

Yan Huan couldn’t help but smile, looking at the banana milk avatar on the text box, and typed back,

"I’m home, Auntie."

"Good, then get some rest early."

"You too, Auntie."

Yan Huan put down his phone, took Miao to the bedroom, and started packing things like books and the computer into the bag for tomorrow.

After cleaning up the room, taking a shower, drying his hair, and changing into pajamas, he finally relaxed and lay down on his bed.

By the time he finished all this, it was already past eleven.

"Creak creak..."

Compared to Ye Lan’s luxurious mattresses, the hard ones at the rental place felt very uncomfortable.

Moreover, any slight movement on the bed made it creak, and doing intense movements might turn it into a musical instrument.

Fortunately, the soundproofing here was good.

"There’s no place like home..."

Lying in his own bed, Yan Huan sighed, charging his phone and casually opening a video website.

Beside him, after surveying its new territory, Miao jumped onto the bed.

Yan Huan rubbed its head and asked,

"How is it, Miao, you like our new home?"

"Meow~"

Miao wasn’t picky; instead, it raised its head, tail upright, and looked at Yan Huan with excited eyes,

"Yan Huan, you really are the best candidate to fight against those modifiers."

While browsing on his phone, Yan Huan blinked, not understanding why it suddenly praised him,

"What’s going on, why are you suddenly complimenting me?"

"I just swallowed a part of the Modifier Fragment that Ye Shiyu’s modifier dropped."

"Fragment?"

Yan Huan became interested, put down his phone, and eagerly asked,

"What’s that about?"

"Do you remember what I told you last Friday?"

Yan Huan thought back and said,

"About the Different World modifiers invading, looking for a Host, and then you giving me the modifier... Ah, are you saying that the reward of the modifier you gave me will strengthen as I resolve more modifiers?"

"That’s right, the method to enhance the reward is for me to devour other dropped Modifier Fragments. It’s just past midnight now, which means it’s next week already; we’ll soon see what enhancements are coming, are you excited?"

Yan Huan looked at Miao, his expression not excited, but rather, he rubbed his chin and pondered,

"Instead of the rewards, can you first explain to me what’s the principle here? Why would Ye Shiyu’s modifier drop fragments, and why would my modifier strengthen after you eat these fragments?"

Miao looked at Yan Huan appreciatively, then sat up dignifiedly, raising its paw like a beckoning cat, and explained,

"As I mentioned before, the way to resolve modifiers is to make their owners willingly give them up. In other words, the Host’s strong desire to use the modifier is the pillar supporting the castle in the air.

"Because you successfully sparked a sense of regret in Ye Shiyu’s heart earlier, causing her to reflect on the correctness of using the modifier, such thoughts are undoubtedly harmful to the desire to use modifiers. Once the castle in the air shakes due to a weakened desire, it will drop fragments.

"The Modifier Fragments containing the power of the Different World are within my domain of intervention; through my divine transformation, it can turn them into fertilizer for your modifier, enhancing its effectiveness!"

So, Miao, you have super evolved!

Seeing the now sleek and shiny-furred Miao in front of him, Yan Huan felt like he was experiencing a level-up in a Pokémon game.

Yan Huan sat up straight, showing an anticipation akin to rubbing hands like a fly.

Alright, let’s see what surprise Empress Miao has brought me.

But since it’s still some time until twelve o’clock, a bit of waiting was required. Yan Huan also thought of another question and asked,

"Wait a minute, if your eating the fragments strengthens my modifier, does their modifier weaken when it drops fragments?"

"Um, unfortunately, it does not, meow."

"Why? Doesn’t that defy the law of conservation of energy?"

Miao gave him a look as if staring at a fool, but still explained,

"Don’t forget, their modifiers come from a spicy Different World, totally different from my working principles, meow! The effect of their modifiers is closely related to the Host’s desires; as long as the Host’s desires don’t fade, they naturally won’t weaken."

"So, even if a lot of fragments drop, the effect of their modifiers won’t diminish at all, right?"

"That’s right, meow."

"Then it’s fine."

Yan Huan lay down again, speechless, but Miao meowed and nudged him with its paw, saying,

"Don’t be disheartened, meow. A lot of fragments dropping also indicates that the Host is deeply questioning using the modifier; they’re not far from voluntarily giving it up!"
