Am I A God?

Chapter 120: Illusion

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

“How dare you, I’m surprised you’re not afraid of me.” Matcha bellowed when he realized that Mango wasn’t afraid at all. “Zhao Yao, can you make me look a little more fearsome please.”

As he witnessed the pile of shit jumping up and down in front of him, Zhao Yao shouted, “I can’t make you look even more fearsome. Any more and you’ll explode.” Zhao Yao suddenly remembered himself hugging Mango in his arms and was extremely disgusted by him.

“F*ck, Mango, what do you even do during your free time...”

As Matcha was jumping around, he saw Roly Poly staring straight at him and he arrogantly questioned, “How is it? Don’t I look absolutely OP (overpowered) and cool?”

Roly Poly turned his head away and held back his laughter as he chuckled, “OPOPOP... You really look OP.”

“For real?” Matcha’s eyes began to shimmer as he asked for Elizabeth’s opinion. “Elizabeth, how does my new skin look!”

Elizabeth stopped licking herself and evaluated Matcha’s new skin. She gave her most honest opinion on Matcha’s skin. “You look exactly like a piece of sh*t which came out of Mango’s butt.”

She lowered her head as she continued to lick herself. As she has the longest fur among all of Zhao Yao’s cat, Elizabeth spends a lot of time grooming herself on a daily basis to present her most beautiful self to everyone. If she failed to groom herself daily, her fur would easily become dirty and messy.

Upon hearing Elizabeth’s opinion on his new skin, Matcha hissed, “Tsk! You’re just jealous of my new skin, you fat long-haired cat.”

Elizabeth completely ignored what the pile of sh*t was talking about and continued to lick herself without even lifting her head up.

Zhao Yao pointed to the cats and told Baiquan, “You see? I’ll give all of the cats in the cat cafe a new skin from now on.”

“You’re turning them into piles of shit?” Baiquan gasped as he looked at Zhao Yao with disbelief.

“Are you stupid? Of course not. Instead, I’ll turn them into precious, rare breeds of cats. I’ll give all of them a unique look and I guarantee that the number of customers who visit our cafe would skyrocket because of this.”

Baiquan stared at Zhao Yao’s face and said, “Boss, your face looks a little stiff. It seems like you’re not moving your mouth at all when you’re talking.”

“Hmm? What did you say?” Zhao Yao consciously touched his own face and continued, “I guess I have to work on perfecting the illusion. I don’t really follow Kris Wu that much.”

Elizabeth’s illusion works by implanting your imagination into other people’s brains.

This required the user to imagine things in fine detail; the more details and features the user could imagine, the more realistic the illusion would become.

Zhao Yao failed terribly in this case. In his mind, Kris Wu was a blurry abstract image and a lot of the details were missed out. They were simply pieces of visual impression that were pieced together to form an incoherent image. Zhao Yao needed to familiarise himself with Kris Wu’s face before he could create a perfect illusion.

Zhao Yao instructed, “I’ll work on perfecting the skin, you guys prepare some flyers to give out.”

Meanwhile, Zhao Yao reactivated his power and in a flash, Roly Poly transformed into a fat-looking bicolor ragdoll cat. Dust Ball transformed into a Scottish Fold while other cats also transformed into a variety of precious breeds such as the Persian, American Shorthair, British Shorthair, and ragdoll.

The supercats and Baiquan were all astonished by this major transformation.

Baiquan asked, “What the f*ck? They look like moving RMB notes to me... Boss, why don’t we sell cat knockoffs?”

“You think I never thought of that?” Zhao Yao shook his head and continued, “I’m only afraid that people would start coming for my head.” Soon after the transformation, Zhao Yao began to feel lethargic from using his power for such a long duration.

He knitted his brows and thought: ‘Hmm... I guess it takes up a lot of my energy to maintain these illusions at that level of detail. I’m afraid I won’t be able to sustain in the long run.”

Roly Poly looked into the mirror and saw a ragdoll staring back at him in the mirror. Surprisingly, Zhao Yao’s illusion ability works in a way that allows them to see their own illusion in the mirror instead of their original self.

A ragdoll coated with white fur and a patch of darker fur in the middle of its face was staring right at Roly Poly; it looked like it was wearing a mask. The ragdoll had a brown tail which was thick and furry. Roly Poly rolled its tail into a bundle of fur and was intrigued by how bushy it looked.

He moved his limbs around and turned his face to the side to see how he looked like from the side. Roly Poly looked absolutely sweet and lovable in the mirror. He sighed, “Why am I so cute? Man... Even I wanna f*ck myself now.”

Roly Poly asked Zhao Yao, “Can you turn me into a female cat please?”

“Scram.”

Though the transformation was visually a success, Zhao Yao felt something strange as his eyes swept past the entire room of cats.

Zhao Yao picked up Roly Poly, who was now a ragdoll, and stroked his fur and belly. It felt even stranger than before.

“There is a problem here...” Zhao Yao thought to himself. “Visually, I see a ragdoll in my arms but what I feel is Roly Poly’s huge belly. There seems to be some inconsistency between the looks of the cat and the actual feel of the cat.”

“This feeling is exactly the same as seeing a 38D but touching a 32A cup size. It makes you feel disappointed and upset about living in a world of lies.”

Zhao Yao gently placed Roly Poly back on to the floor and stroked his chin as he thought, “I’ll need to do some fine tuning on the details... Yeah, I’ll watch more cat videos and find a way to construct an illusion for the skin of the cat such that they feel consistent with how they look, especially for Roly Poly’s fat belly and Dust Ball’s petite size. I’ll have to feel their body parts in order to construct the most suitable skin for their looks. This is to make sure that there is no inconsistency between the way they look and how they actually feel.”

Zhao Yao continued to think of possible complications. “But then again, the more details I put into making the illusions, the harder it is to sustain the illusion as it takes up a lot more energy from me.” An idea flashed past his mind and his eyes lit up as he told Baiquan. “In this case, we will host a Star Cat Night! We will work until 8 pm on that day and transform all the cats into the rare breeds. I bet this would attract a lot of customers.”

Baiquan nodded in agreement. “Right, we are having two days break in two days’ time anyway, why not we have it this Saturday?”

Zhao Yao agreed and instructed, “Sounds great! Prepare the flyers and posters for the night and have it printed by tomorrow morning.”

Baiquan instantly got down to work and started to prepare the flyers. “Heh! I’m pretty sure this would attract loads of university students!” Baiquan chuckled at the thought of seeing university girls coming to the store flashed passed his mind.

Zhao Yao looked at the four supercats and frowned as he thought, “It doesn’t seem like the supercats are interested in getting a new skin, with the exception of Matcha of course. I’m worried that they may do a half-hearted job. Furthermore, they are as particular as humans are towards appearance, which means that I’ll have to suit their liking before they even agree to cooperate.”

At the thought of this, Zhao Yao decided to reward the cats by pampering them in order to get them to cooperate with him.
