Chapter 130: Chapter 130- The Patience Of A Saint

Sol gulped down a large lump of saliva before he got up.

He resisted the urge to leave as this room was the entire reason he came to this haunted place to begin with.

It was Su Jin’s room.

"But is this really Su Jin’s room? Did he do all of this?"

The room was about as big as Su Moon’s office which was destroyed by the Ninan beast.

There were two windows that were hanging off their hinges, while a few simple pieces of furniture decorated the room, a small bookshelf along with a desk and a chair near the window; all of them were in splinters.

Strangely, there was no bed.

Sol walked to the only door in the room and opened it to find a simple bathroom.

After exiting the bathroom, Sol looked around the completely destroyed room before walking over to the wall where one of the words ’Get Out’ was carved.

He used his fingers to trace over the marks.

"Just what happen here?"

As Sol was getting confused by why the room was like this and if Su Jin did it, he suddenly sensed a presence at the door behind him so he immediately spun around in a panic.

Sol thought it was perhaps the ghost of Su Jin coming to get him for entering his room, but who, or rather ’what’ Sol saw at the door was completely unexpected. It caused him to do a doubletake and stare with incredulity.

A cat was at the door.

Its fur was the color of midnight and if Sol wasn’t a cultivate that could see in the dark somewhat, he would have missed this cat entirely. It blended into the darkness all too well.

When the cat swaggered into the room, it looked like it had called this place home. However, when it turn its head and saw Sol looking at it, it froze.

It seemed as if it truly wasn’t expecting to see anyone, at least alive or conscious, in this room.

The cat and Sol didn’t move when they spot each other. It was as if they were observing the other expecting a reaction.

Sol instinctively checked his bracelet and felt it was still in the West Wing, he also didn’t sense the Formation Array restrictions he set up in the main bedroom coming undone.

Sol had never seen this type of animal before. It resembled Little Zeel’s miniature form quite a bit, but its features were a bit different.

For one Little Zeel’s green fur was slightly longer and made him pleasant to rub. He also had round and chubby cheeks with two big green emerald eyes that made him look even cuter.

This creature instead had short black fur that made its slender body seem as smooth as silk.

’It’s not the same as Little Zeel’s fur, but I bet it would be fun to pet.’

It also had a rather weak and delicate appearance, that made one want to hold it and give it a few protective cuddles.

But if Little Zeel was chubby and lovable, this creature was dignified and elusive.

Suddenly, Sol got the urge to pet this cat.

Its golden vertical pupils seemed as if they were calling for him to do so.

The urge was so strong that he took a step forward.

Unbeknownst to Sol, his breathing had become ragged and his gaze intense. This scared the cat and it took a step back as if it was about to turn and run back through the door.

"Ah, wait! Here..."

Sol suddenly slapped his storage bag and took out a dakkochi he had gotten from Mar-Dule.

After taking off a single piece of meat he placed the rest back into his storage bag.

The aroma of the meat immediately drifted over to the cat and it stopped in its tracks.

Sol knelt down on the ground to look as small as possible.

"It’s okay, I’m not gonna hurt you or anything. Just-Just let me pet you."

Sol’s breathing became more ragged.

He always had a fascination for Ibbian Beasts ever since he met Little Zeel when he was little.

Maybe it was just that his first impression of Little Zeel caused his expectations to be high for Spiritual Beasts, but they make really good companions.

’This creature doesn’t look like a Spirit Beast though, I don’t sense any cultivation aura from it.’

As Sol thought this, the cat seemed to have been persuaded by the meat dangling between Sol’s hands.

It turned and slowly walked over to Sol. It would pause and stare at him with hesitation a few times, but with the patience of a saint, Sol remain where he was not moving.

Finally, his patience won the cat over as it came up and lightly took the meat from between his fingers.

Sol watched as it ate the meat before he soon couldn’t help but reached out and petted its head.

He felt the cat’s body twitch under his palm, but it eventually relaxed and allowed Sol to pet it.

Sol felt immense euphoria explode in his heart.

"Little Zeel is going to be happy when he sees you."

Sol said excitedly.

The cat suddenly looked up at Sol and tilted its cute head.

"Meow..."

Sol paused when he heard that, even the sound it made felt as if it was tickling the deepest recess of his ears and bringing him a warm comforting sensation.

However, Sol soon snapped out of his dazed state and looked at the cat.

"Do you want more?"

"Meow."

"Ah, okay, okay. These are for Little Zeel when he wakes up from his naps, but I hope he wouldn’t mind me giving them to you."

Sol then took out the remaining dakkochi and feed the pieces of meat to the cat one by one.

After it was done eating, the cat meowed and walked closer to Sol. It then began rubbing itself against his foot.

Sol didn’t understand what it was doing at first, but then he figured it saw him as a friend now.

Sol grinned from ear to ear before he picked up the cat and carried it in his arms like he would a baby.

Sol rubbed its belly as he walked around to examine the room some more.

He wasn’t so freaked out by everything anymore now that he made a friend in this unlikely place.

However, something was still bothering Sol.

He was sure he saw something in the hallway.

The person’s features were distorted, but Sol was sure from his side profile, it was that of a man.
