Am I A God?

After recognizing the power gap between them, Zhao Yao decided not to rest anymore, or else he would be totally powerless against the other party.

Zhao Yao decided to get on the move again and continue completing missions to earn enough experience points so that he could level up his supercats.

Before he left, Zhao Yao also gave Arthas a mission. He gave him the task of figuring out the mechanisms behind the game, Closers World, to see why the other party had created this thing and how they could counterattack.

The other thing would be to let Milk Tea try using supernatural ingredients and cat rice formula to prepare a cat meal. However, the experience points that earned did not increase. It remained at 100 points a day for the Michelin-starred cat meal.

Zhao Yao thought, "So Milk Tea's superpower has really no relation to preparing meals? I should find a supercat with a similar superpower to try making the cat meals."

( Boxno vel. co m ) Hence, as he went on to complete more missions, Zhao Yao also kept a lookout for related news.

…

Before knocking off work, Matcha returned to the Cat Wonderland worriedly.

"A bunch of unreliable cats," Matcha thought. "Ares just goes around fighting and killing with his gang of brothers all the time. If I leave the small cat in his care, the cat will either end up in the hospital or jail.

Elizabeth and her family are a bunch of p*ssies. If I leave a male cat in their care, he would grow up to be as cowardly as Caesar.

Lightning, Cannon, and Dust Ball are out of the question as well. If I leave him in their care, he will become a young gambling addict. That would ruin his cat life."

Matcha had been observing the cats around him closely for the past two days. He realized that none of the supercats were good cats that were motivated, hardworking, or rich with a house of their own.

"Thinking about it, it's best to let Yellow Mud and me take care of him. But doesn't this mean I have to take on another burden? I'm not even married yet and I already have two children. Does this mean I won't be able to get married for the rest of my life? Is this a joke?"

Matcha's face darkened the more he thought about it. He followed the other cats around him aboard the dragon in a daze. When he returned to the Cat Island, he saw a bunch of cats chattering noisily as they gathered in one direction, bustling with discussion about something.

Fūjin stared at Gaia and said, "Gaia, bring us on board with you today."

Gaia said ambitiously, "No, I agreed to train my level with Rice Cake. We want to be the first to finish leveling up in the world!"

Lucifer said, "You can ally with me, Fūjin. I am already Level 20, we can train together."

Fūjin turned away with disdain and said, "You're always the first to die. Nobody wants to be allied with you."

Fish Ball bustled over to Gaia's side and said, "Gaia, Gaia, let's train together, alright? Can you just count me in?"

Gaia glanced at Fish Ball and frowned. "Why are you on Cat Island? Didn't you move back to your house?"

Fish Ball laughed gleefully. "I don't even have a phone at home. It's not as good as being here on the Cat Island, where there are phones, computers and game consoles available everywhere for free. Everyone here is nice too, so I love the Cat Island more."

Gaia nodded. "Okay, your gaming skills are not too bad anyway. You can train with us."

Matcha frowned. "What are you guys talking about? What game?"

Fish Ball gasped at Matcha before saying, "Matcha, do you not know? It's Closers World. We are all playing Closers World."

"What game is that? Is it fun to play?"

"Of course it's fun!" Fish Ball exclaimed excitedly. "I have never played such a fun game in my whole life. It's the only game I play everyday now. I have lost interest in all the other games. This is the attractiveness of a VR game! Do you know even know what VR is?"

"Of course I know! VR games are actually released?!" Matcha was evidently excited about this, so much that he threw the small cat issue to the back of his head. He immediately asked, "Where are you guys playing it? Can I try?"

Hence, after a few minutes, Matcha followed Gaia, Fish Ball, Fūjin and the rest to Gaia's cat bed. Arthas and Diana were already there, playing the game.

The box beside them was full of VR game consoles. It was Zhao Yao who had bought them for Arthas and Diana to experiment with the game.

Matcha casually took one of them. Under the guidance of Fish Ball and the rest, Matcha put on the device and lay in the cat bed.

As the game console turned on, his vision turned black. When Matcha opened his eyes again, he realized he was in a vast expanse of snow-covered land.

A huge black bear roared at him before asking in a low, masculine voice, "Closer, do you want to start your adventure?"

A few options appeared before Matcha in a flash. They were "Start", "Leave" and "Help" and many other options to choose from.

He naturally chose to start the game. A man clad in thin rags appeared before him. Rows of buttons appeared beside the man. As long as Matcha concentrated his attention on the buttons, he could adjust the man's physical composition, even his sex and age.

Matcha began to customize the man excitedly. A two-meter tall man with a bald head and muscular physique appeared before him in no time.

After pressing the "Confirm" button, he reached the next stage to name his character. He could do so via voice message or typing on the virtual keyboard.

"Eh? What should I name him?" Matcha thought for a while. He entered the name 'Zhao Yao', but realized that the ID was already taken.

He entered the name 'Matcha', but it was taken as well.

"D*mn." Matcha thought for a while more before he entered 'Matcha Latte', but the username was still taken. He tried again with 'Matcha Latte Half Sugar', but it was yet again taken…

After he finally secured a username, Matcha decided to start the game. His vision turned black, and he realized he had appeared on a field. An elder said to him, "Welcome to the Hundred Beasts College, Matcha Latte Half Sugar No Ice With Boba. I will introduce you to the courses you will need to learn next…"

It was the introductory course now, but Matcha was not listening to the elder. He was too fascinated by the novelty of his character's body that he began to play around with his movements. This was his first time being human and using a human body to move. It was a fascinating feeling.

He touched his palm and jumped on the spot. Matcha said happily, "So this is how Zhao Yao feels normally? So tall!" Matcha stared at the bizarre wooden buildings in the distance before turning on the spot and breaking into a run.

"My body feels much stronger now, but much heavier as well. I can't lick my butt anymore, and my tail is gone…" Matcha suddenly started screaming and shouting excitedly, "Wait… I can speak? I can speak directly now?"

Though he could communicate telepathically in the real world, normal humans would not be able to understand him.

However, at that moment, in Closers World, Matcha realized that the male character he controlled could actually speak in the same voice he normally used in telepathic communication.

The ability to control all sorts of human body movements now also enthralled him. After attending the introductory class, Matcha bounced off to find Fish Ball and the others and could not wait to train with them.

After a few days, the supercats in the Cat Wonderland were all playing the game under Arthas and Diana's lead to explore and research the Awareness Dimension.

Zhao Yao was flying in the sky above the great desert, trying to find a special supercat as he completed more missions and earned experience points.
