Am I A God?

Black Panther watched Zhao Yao with cold chills running down his spine. Zhao Yao sheathed his golden sword as the 200 meter long street transformed into a pure white snowy world.

All the rebels and their armored cars had become ice statues in the snow.

After the supercats had grown in power and skill level, the effects of their transformation after taking the Spicy Cat Strips had evolved.

The Ares sword in Zhao Yao’s hand used to emit sword energy but now there was an additional frost attack.

The frosted rebels disintegrated as their flesh turned to ash and vanished in the air.

The bearded leader gradually faded as he glared at Zhao Yao. “Just you wait…” He turned into ash and vanished into the air.

Zhao Yao surveyed the vanishing rebels and thought, “This feeling…”

After escorting the convoy to its destination, Zhao Yao flew towards the rebel’s base camp.

…

A fortress was seen in the Gobi desert.

There was a 10 meter tall door in front of the fortress. It was dark inside and it looked like dark energy were swirling within.

A few warriors were sporadically seen emerging from the huge door. They ran to one side to assemble as they grabbed their weapons and left in their armored cars.

The bearded leader, who was killed by Zhao Yao, emerged from the door. He massaged his head as he looked on in a daze.

War torn country… burning houses… shrill screams of children… fresh blood everywhere…

The horrifying scenes flashed in his mind. He grabbed his head as his eyes clouded.

A black warrior shouted, “Simba, let’s go! I want to kill him!”

The bearded Simba recovered himself as his mind locked on the distorted image of Zhao Yao.

“Kill him?” Simba nodded as he smiled cruelly. “I want him to know how terrifying it is to face a stalking undead devil.”

He turned to look at the warriors emerging from the door and shouted, “The few of you! Follow me!”

On a cliff a few kilometers from the fortress, a youth lay flat on the ground as he spied on the fortress with his telescope.

“That’s the Door of Everlasting Life?” The youth said, “Did you say that revived people emerge from it?”

A domestic cat beside the youth said, “That’s the Door of Everlasting Life. Arria’s dead souls are revived inside. Unless we defeat Arria’s body, the process of revival will not stop.”

“He can turn normal people into his Everlasting Warriors. We have to stop him as it is a matter of time before he corrupts the entire planet.”

The youth looked sadly at the scene as he pondered how he was embroiled in this conflict.

He was getting up from bed, having his normal meal and playing his new computer game.

When he was emptying his trash outside, he discovered a stray cat that had fainted.

Looking at the pitiful cat, the youth Shreev gave him some unwanted meat and the result was unstoppable.

Shreev could not stop caressing the cat and the cat rubbed Shreev incessantly.

They went from the trash can, the doorway to the home sofa as Shreev caressed the cat from head to toe. He found that he could not be parted from the cat.

The cat treated the place like his home as he dined, slept and used the bathroom… Then he told Shreev that a world crisis was coming and only they could save the world.

Looking at the fortress, Shreev felt it was unreal. “Asser, shall we call the police?”

“What’s the use of calling the police? Asser said, “This can’t be solved by humans!”

He started recalling his memories as he said, “Thousands of years ago, while the primitive men were toying with clay, I was battling with Arria. We distorted the men’s awareness, controlled their lives and deaths and changed human history. He possessed far greater power than the human civilization.”

Shreev said, “Don’t we have supercats now? Perhaps we can seek help from supercats?”

“Normal supercats are of no use.” Asser said, “They are just some lucky offspring of Arria. Though we were dormant for a few thousand years and our control of awareness has deteriorated, normal supercats were no match for us.”

Asser’s voice rang in Shreev’s mind. After hearing Asser’s words, Shreev did not feel like going.

Shreev said, “It’s getting late. Let’s go home and get some sleep. If I stay up late, I’ll get pimples.”

Asser said furiously, “Don’t you understand what’s happening? Your planet’s in danger. We are the only ones able to save the world! The more awareness energy that Arria accumulates, the more his strength would recuperate. Then, we will be unable to stop him!”

“We have to stop him before it’s too late!”

Shreev said reluctantly, “Why did you find me? Let’s look for my classmate. He does bodybuilding and runs 20 kilometers daily. His arms are as thick as my thigh. Why don’t you look for him?”

Asser said, “Do you think I’ll like to find a useless person like you? It’s because our superpowers’ compatibility is high. It’s not easy to find such compatibility. Don’t be mistaken, even if you borrow my superpower, I don’t expect you to defeat Arria.”

“I’ll confront him directly while you use superpower to assist me.”

A small group of armored cars left. Asser perked up and said, “Follow them! We can sneak into their midst and go inside the Door of Everlasting Life.”

Shreev said sadly, “I’ll be beaten to death or decapitated. I haven’t gotten married and I don’t want to die a virgin.”

“Nonsense!” Asser jumped on his head and slapped hard. “Start your car quickly or we may lose them.”
