Chapter 370: The Lesson on Delegation

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

“Just stop wasting your time on this group of self-proclaimed apostles,” Zhao Yao cautioned, “Instead of focusing your attention on these gossips, you should concentrate on your training. Understand?”

“Alright, alright.” Zhao Xue responded with a perfunctory nod. She had already grown numb to King George’s incessant lecturing. Every day, he would repeat the same old thing about keeping a low profile in order to ensure one’s safety.

Zhao Yao recognized that exasperated expression on her face and responded with even more lecturing, “Do you understand that this is all for your own good? Do you know how dangerous the world of superpower is? You never know what kind of power an average Joe might possess! You are just one mistake away from bidding farewell to this world!

No matter how strong you become, you are still powerless when other apostles have set their eyes on you. One sneak attack and you are dead.”

“Yes, yes, yes ...” Zhao Xue responded with another round of relentless nodding.

“Oh yes, did you happen to mention your power to the other members?”

Her forehead furrowed together as she replied with a violent shake of her head, “Of course not! You repeated so many times to never divulge my power. Obviously, I listened to you!”

“That’s good. You must remember that the key to any superpower battles is to keep your ability a secret.”

An invisible weight tugged at the corner of her lips, turning her face into a frown as she whispered in her head, “What happened to King George? Why is he so naggy nowadays? He’s just like my mum.”

After what seemed like an eternity, training finally ended which meant the end of the non-stop lecturing. On her way back to the dormitory, a thought suddenly dawned on her, “Oh shit, I forgot to mention about the money lending platform!”

Since joining the superpower group in her school, she had participated in an investigation surrounding a money lending platform. Originally, she wanted to consult King George on his opinions on this matter. However, it completely slipped her mind as she was preoccupied with all those lecturing.

“Never mind, I will bring it up during my next training ...”

...

Even though Zhao Xue had already left, Zhao Yao remained seated on one of the benches in the garden. He then sent a few slaps across Roly Poly’s giant belly before instructing him, “Roly Poly, you can go back first. When you’re in the belly, help me get Ares and Dust Ball over here.”

With a snap of his fingers, a tiny door appeared right in front of Roly Poly. The door was enveloped in beams of dazzling light. It was simply breathtaking.

Roly Poly immediately bolted towards this mysterious door as his furry body brushed across Zhao Yao’s calf as he disappeared into it.

The moment his body entered this portal, the original smile on his face instantly disappeared. In its place was a nonchalant expression.

Roly Poly muttered, “Tsk. Zhao Yao, this fella is getting distracted. He spends all his time on those two scumbags, Elizabeth and Matcha, instead of me. At this rate, I must hasten my progress to establish my empire!”

The moment he entered the extradimensional belly, a familiar rumbling rang in his ears. He could detect something inching towards him. The stomps grew louder and louder as a giant shadow loomed over Roly Poly, encapsulating his entire body within it.

“Roly Poly! You have finally returned!”

Bam! Lion Head instantly pounced atop Roly Poly’s back, crushing him with her gigantic frame. Roly Poly almost fainted from this ‘surprise attack’ as the crushing weight continued squashing against him.

“Roly Poly, I think about you every day, every hour, every minute and every second. How about you? Do you miss me?”

Roly Poly exerted all his strength as he struggled to escape from this furry monster. Roly Poly immediately shot her a dismissive glance and retorted, “I’m busy. I have no time for your nonsense today.” However, Lion Head seemed to be oblivious to his words and continued pestering him. Left with no choice, Roly Poly turned her invisible with a sigh of despair. To him, not seeing the problem was as good as solving it.

He then approached Ares and instructed, “Zhao Yao is looking for you. Just walk towards that bright door over there.”

A glimmer shot across Ares’s eyes as he thought, “That guy promised to bring me out one day. Is that day today?” Just the thought of leaving this place was enough to lift his mood as joy welled up in his heart.

Next, Roly Poly went over to the catmint garden. As usual, Roly Poly was busy tending to the plants as she carefully sprinkled water over them. She then scattered a handful of seeds over the soil with a wide grin plastered on her face.

Roly Poly then crept towards her with a serious expression, “How is it Dust Ball? Have you considered my proposition?” While he was speaking, an invisible force seemed to be pressing against his cheeks, distorting his face. Actually, it was caused by Lion Head’s tongue licking furiously across his face.

Dust Ball reciprocated his seriousness with a gentle nod, “We’ll talk about it after your initial investment. I am interested in a batch of catmint from Yunnan. I’ll join you if this catmint appears in front of me.”

“Hmph, just give me the URL by tonight. I’ll help you settle it.”

After a few rounds of short exchanges, Roly Poly left with a mysterious smile on his face. However, he did not leave. Instead, he began to pace up and down as he continued to observe the cats absorbed in their computer games.

On the other hand, Ares and Dust Ball had already appeared on the other end of the dazzling door.

Dust Ball had already gone through it umpteen times and was completely indifferent to it.

However, the same could not be said for Ares. He could hardly believe his eyes as he stared at this captivating night sky.

Since Hao Cang’s demise, Ares had spent all his time inside the suffocating belly. He had already forgotten what it felt to be in the wild. This scene felt so strange yet familiar.

“It’s so cold outside.”

This was the first thing he noticed.

“What’s the temperate?”

This was the first question which popped into his head.

Suddenly, it dawned on him.

“Where is my phone? Did I leave it back there?’

“That means I have no internet.”

“Everything seems so dangerous without internet.”

“I wanna go home.”

Ares immediately swept his head around, only to realize that the door had vanished. This unsettling new environment plunged him into despair. His eyes then darted towards Zhao Yao as he spoke, “After some consideration, I realized that today isn’t an ideal day for me to go out. I think we can postpone this excursion to a later date.”

Zhao Yao began to cackle uncontrollably at Ares’s predicament. The cat was a unique species. If not for the opportunity to hunt or mate in the wild, they would rather spend all their time in the comforts of a home. This was especially true for domestic cats. Zhao Yao just didn’t expect a supercat to behave like this as well.

“Today is the day. From today onwards, the both of you will be going out frequently for missions.”

Zhao Yao did not release them on a whim. Instead, it was to experiment with the delegation function of his BOOK.

Since reaching level 6, the BOOK had earned an additional function of delegation. This allowed supercats themselves to complete missions and earn experience points without Zhao Yao. However, the experience points earned could only be used on the cats themselves, and no one else.

However, this was good enough. If handled correctly, Zhao Yao could simply laze at home while the experience points continued to pour in.

Hence, he decided to see how it would all turn out by releasing them from the belly.

The reason Zhao Yao chose Ares and Dust Ball was because of the nature of their powers.

Ares’s power provided the most impenetrable defense. Coupled with Dust Ball’s escaping tools, this pair was the safest combination amongst the cats, hence making them the perfect guinea pigs.

On the other hand, Ares had been begging to leave the belly. Meanwhile, Dust Ball was already so used to life outside the belly.

Thus, Zhao Yao settled the two cats in front of him before explaining how the entire thing worked.

“This is King George’s power. It allows you to complete missions and earn experience points to grow stronger ...”

“Missions? Grow Stronger?” Suddenly, Ares’s eyes began to sparkle with excitement. After spending so much time on computer games, he was no stranger to the notions of missions.

“That’s right.” Zhao Yao nodded his head as he continued, “Today is your first time doing it, so I’m gonna tag along and remind you of some key points to take note of. After today, you will be on your own. The more missions completed, the more experience points earned, the stronger you grow.”

Those words were music to the cats’ ears as they listened attentively to Zhao Yao’s instructions.

Zhao Yao’s eyes began to scan his phone’s screen as he continued, “Firstly, you have to identify individuals who require your help. The individuals must be related to supercats. From my experience, it’s also dependent on their nationality. For example, it’s more likely to receive a mission from Japanese.”
