Am I A God?

After removing the threat of the superpower from their bodies and completing the mission, Zhao Yao finally smiled in satisfaction. "I should clear more missions on the way back. An insignificant mission is better than none at all."

Everyone else dispersed and went back to work. Only Aurora stayed behind, looking at Zhao Yao with fawning eyes.

"I'm still quite confident about my looks." Aurora brushed through her long hair as she stared at Zhao Yao. "Sir Headless Horseman, my stomach feels so painful. Can you come and check if there's a problem with me?"

"Your stomach still hurts?" Zhao Yao was surprised. "That can't be, I already removed the superpower."

"But it's really still painful." Aurora pouted and whined. "Can you come and check me please?"

Zhao Yao paused for a moment. He observed Aurora for a moment. Aurora was elated as she thought, "Has my charm worked on him?"

Zhao Yao waved his hands as he said, "You should just go and change first. You're really smelly and your butt is covered in blood. I feel uncomfortable even if you don't."

"Ah!!" Aurora screamed in humiliation and anger as she walked off.

Zhao Yao let out his breath. "She looks pretty decent but I'm not such an easy person." He stroked his chin and muttered to himself, "But just touching her is harmless right? No, Zhao Yao, you are the Headless Horseman, the model of justice in Jianghai. You can't leave any black spots on your name."

Cheese, who had turned into the cloak, thought exasperatedly, "Why care about black spots when you're turning into a black hole already…"

Under Zhao Yao's orders, everyone started cleaning the ship as it was steered back to Jianghai.

Once the ship arrived in Jianghai and the criminals handed over to Uncle Ho, Zhao Yao brought Mango back to the hospital.

After a round of inspection, there was found to be nothing wrong with Mango. Surprisingly, he was recovering well and in good health, and could even be discharged from the hospital at any time.

Zhao Yao stroked Mango's head and sighed, "Mango ah, Mango. What exactly is your superpower?"

Although he used Mango's power a couple of times, Zhao Yao was still unable to fully grasp the mechanisms behind his power. Afterall, he could only see part of its performance each time he used the power. Furthermore, Mango was a supercat with no intelligence, hence he could not communicate telepathically, making it more difficult to grasp the mechanisms behind his superpower.

Zhao Yao did think of signing a contract or letting other people borrow Mango's superpower. However, he was not sure if Mango's lack of intelligence was a side effect of his superpower so he did not dare to try it out so casually.

Especially after the explosive expulsion of superpowers during Mango's battle with Project X previously, where Zhao Yao gained a much deeper understanding of the dangers of Mango's ability.

"Mango's superpower still can't be used casually. It should only be used during critical moments."

Hence, after rescuing Mango, Zhao Yao brought him back to Cat Island. Thereafter, Zhao Yao decided not to let Mango out of Cat Island again unless it was necessary, not even to Cat Wonderland.

…

A few days later, in the headquarters of Star Cats in Maine, United States.

Shadows of nine cats appeared one by one on the huge screen.

Below the screen, Dragon was sitting on the chair, panic-stricken.

In the screen, a large shadow of a cat with considerably long fur asked, "Dragon, what exactly happened? How did the Headless Horseman defeat you in the vast sea?"

The moment Dragon heard the name 'Headless Horseman', fear flashed across his eyes, "We can't touch him… The Headless Horseman can't be touched."

Another cat shadow bellowed, "What exactly are you scared of? What powers did the Headless Horseman use?"

Dragon sank into silence. He slowly said after a long pause, "He kept banging on my head."

"Banging on your head?"

Dragon replied, "Maybe his superpower is being able to hit the target's head under all circumstances."

Silence fell. The voice of a small girl from a petite cat shadow broke the silence as she asked, "Is Dragon's head permanently damaged?"

"Let's run a test on him."

"If it doesn't work, read his memories."

"We must find out what the Headless Horseman's ability is."

"No one should be allowed to belittle the Star Cats."

"We show the Headless Horseman our prowess!"

"Look at all the posts on the Chinese Cat Web! The Headless Horseman's actions are really bone-chilling."

"How can such an evil being exist in this world?"

"This guy is a racist inside out, especially towards the supercat race. A person like that with such great superpowers seriously threatens the existence of us supercats."

The supercats began discussing fervently about this and it ended up becoming a strong condemnation of the Headless Horseman mixed with feelings of righteous indignation.

…

In the office of the Cat Wonderland, Zhao Yao was looking at the intel sent over by Uncle Ho. It was about the Star Cats.

"The largest superpower organization in the United States, also the earliest superpower organisation that went against the government." Zhao Yao stroked his chin and thought, "After receiving my monthly payout at the end of this month, I will be able add to the experience points earned from the previous month. Thereafter, I will make a trip to the United States and retrieve all the meteorite fragments there."

"By then, I should become strong enough to defeat Project X in battle."

When he thought of Project X, the thought of recovering the intelligence of Roly Poly and the other cats, as well as reviving Sphynx cat came to his mind.

By healing Roly Poly and the rest, as long as Zhao Yao's powers surpassed that of Project X, he could easily defeat him.

However, judging from Project X's words, reviving Sphynx cat would not be an easy task.

Even Project X himself did not have the ability to revive lives. His proposed solution was to find a supercat with revival abilities. He was referring to a supercat that should have actually died thousands of years ago.

Zhao Yao turned on his computer and stared silently at the world map, "Does it really exist… that cat…"

Right at that moment, knocks on the door rang in his ears. Zhao Yao called out, "Come in."

Mr. Matcha, who was clad in a thick layer of cat clothing walked in. Kun Wu and Doll followed in his lead.

Zhao Yao was confused when he saw the thick clothing on Matcha. He asked, "Why are you wearing such thick clothing? You might get a heatstroke from that."

Matcha was wearing a lion onesie which had a huge brown mane around the neck.

Hearing Zhao Yao's words, Matcha replied, "Zhao Yao, Zhao Yao, don't you think I look more majestic and imposing like this? Doesn't this give you the feel of a lion prince? More female cats came to chat with me today."

"Well, if it makes you happy." Seeing the redness on Matcha's nose, Zhao Yao could not help but remind him, "Drink more water. Don't get a heatstroke."

"Don't worry. My body is top-notch, I will never get a heatstroke." Matcha panted heavily with his tongue out as he strode out of the door. "Let's not talk about that anymore. I need to go and show Elizabeth my new clothes, it will definitely give her a scare."

Zhao Yao turned his gaze on Doll and Kun Wu and said, "How is it? Are you guys having fun working here?" As he said that he thought to himself, "Both of you suddenly came together to find me… Are you guys going to demand for higher pay? I must vehemently suppress such unhealthy practices and evil phenomena."

Doll was nodding her head vigorously as Kun Wu said, "Zhao Yao, we do the same jobs as the others and eat the same things. Why are we restricted to stay in the Cat Wonderland dormitory while you guys can all go back to the Cat Island to rest. Do you not trust us?"

Doll immediately chimed in, "Yeah, do you not trust us?"
