Chapter 1471 - Nothing Special
"What on earth is this? Sam thought of it?" Jack asked with a gasp.
Watt on the other hand didn't seem surprised. He just looked at the design without any expressions.
"So, this is the reason why you were sulking the whole year?" Watt asked casually.
"One of the reasons," Philip said with a sigh. He then looked at Watt and asked.
"You don't seem so surprised."
"Because I am not. What is there to be surprised about. It is not the first time that Sam created something that could take lives in thousands at a time."
"But this one is way too…"
"Cruel? Dirty? Underhanded?" Watt interrupted him as he could understand why Philip is feeling so confused.
"There is a reason he didn't make these things before. He could have done them better, faster and even more powerful by himself, without us all three.
And you are the one who explained the reason to me." Watt explained.
Philip sighed and replied.
"I know. But why did he even think of such a thing? This goes beyond everything Sam has done."
"It is not the first time. What about the thing we did in the realm of the undead. We almost annihilated the species. What do you say about that?"
Philip stayed silent.
"Just like how he did with the rest of the things, Sam looked at it as a possibility of research. The theories were formed in his head based on what he learned of these elemental energies.
Just like you said, he didn't bring it out because of the destruction that he could bring out. But all three of us know one thing, he doesn't like other people involving themselves in his own business.
Sivan just went ahead and did that stupid thing. So, there is no way he would be holding back. Anyway, even you noted down that he only wanted to use it as a last resort.
Even though you are hesitating now, I am sure you would be the first one to use it when the situation demands.
Stop worrying and do it."

Philip smiled and said.
"No need. I am alright. I just wanted to be sure if my thoughts are in the right place when doing it. I just wanted to hear it from you guys."
"Then just go ahead and do it.
We are almost done with everything. After this is done, we can swarm Mari Clan. I want to see how Sivan would react."
"Speaking of which, we need to send a few scout teams. We need to have some first-hand information of the situation there when we enter…."
They started discussing other plans before Philip got started with the construction of the last product.
Meanwhile, back in the Gaja clan.
With Gail's warning, the experts stopped acting like assholes and started following Sam's instructions. They even had to take his rejections with a big grin on their faces as if they were happy to be judged.
Apart from working on the designs, Sam also worked on the next thing that Gail would be taking to the Sonic cat's place.
"What is it this time?" Gail asked as he looked at the thing in front of him.
"It is also a similar product, but a different. It is not as rigid as the one before and it can be moved around easily without any assembly."
"Yeah, I can see that. But why does it feel like a large Bolster?"
"Because it kind of is."
"Why would that cat need one?"
"Sonic cats like to sleep. In fact, they nap for an hour or two every day. But they cannot find a comfortable place no matter how much they look."
"Last time I checked, the bloody cat is so damn comfortable. It is lazily basic under the sun."
"Well, comfort has different meanings for you and the cat.
Don't worry and just take it. You have seen the previous thing working its charm. So, what is the problem now?
You just have to take this and you will see the results yourself. But this time, please be clearheaded enough to check for the special thing I asked you about."
"Alright."
The next day.
Gail once again arrived at the Sonic cat's abode.
This time, it is standing on the lake, right below the waterfall as the stream hit it with full force.
But it took it all with its eyes closed and a pleasurable face.
As soon as it was done, it went straight for the pillar.
It noticed Gail's presence and only gave him a side-eyed glance. But his next actions gained a lot more attention than that.
He took out a large black bolster and laid down on the ground while embracing it.
Even though he is very reluctant to do that, he really felt comfortable while hugging it.
There is slight vibration coming out of the bolster and a sense of warmth. He felt like he could really sleep.
When the cat looked at his expression, it almost wanted to pounce on him and take the bolster. But it controlled its urge.
Sivan who did the demo stood up and threw it at the cat before it could decide to jump.
The cat caught the bolster with its front paws and laid down on the ground while hugging it with its belly side.
It felt extremely good. It couldn't help but feel the warmth and vibrations on its soft belly and yawn.
*MEOW*
It is much more pleasurable than before and it started stretching its body.
But before it could drift off into sleep, it decided to send the guest away.
So, it reluctantly stood up and attacked Gail.
The battle started.
One hour and ten minutes later.
Gail is panting as he stood with his guard up. The cat is looking at him calmly as it walked around slowly.
He is currently standing at the edge of the lake and he is feeling exhausted. This is the last exchange they are going to have and he is sure that he will lose.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut he lasted ten minutes more than the previous time, so he is still very satisfied with the result.
Gail suddenly made a move…
*SPLASH*
The exchange ended with him being in the lake once again.
He came out in exhaustion while the cat went back to its new snuggle buddy.
Gail walked out and sat down there to heal a bit.
After recovering some of his strength, he walked out of the patch and started using his spiritual energy to look around the area to see if there is anything special that Sam is talking about.
The sonic cat observed his actions but didn't do anything. It just stayed there as if nothing happened. It didn't attack him or intimidate him to stop his search.
But Gail is disappointed.
There is nothing that he could find. By the time he was done with the search, he almost doubted Sam's words. But when he thought of the massage pillar and the bolster the cat is using, he couldn't help but trust him.
He went back to the clan and reported the situation to Sam.
"You cannot find anything outside of that patch?" Sam asked with a frown.
"Not a thing. In fact, there are a lot of small creatures living happily. There is not a single predator there. All of them are mild and docile creatures that could just live as long as they want."
"That is impossible. If such creatures are in large quantities the ecosystem would die. It will collapse sooner or later."
"They are not in large quantities though."
"If they are not in large quantities, how can there not be any predators? Since they don't have any natural enemies, they should be living long lives. There should hundreds if not thousands of each creature roaming around there eating every green thing they could find."
Gail frowned.
He subconsciously ignored this situation, because he didn't think much of it. As far he is concerned a deer that is only within Mortal Plane Pre-transcendence is not something he should be focusing on.
So, he didn't think much of these creatures.
But now that Sam has mentioned this, he understood. It is impossible for these things to not procreate. It is unrealistic for them to refrain from reproducing.
He has been visiting the place for years and he noticed these creatures time and again, but he never stopped to think how it is possible.
"Do you think the special thing you are talking about could be related to the presence of these creatures?"
"Could be. We cannot be sure. I wonder if I would be able to visit that place."
"I don't know. But I am reluctant to try. There was a time when I was easy to track and some people followed me in, but they didn't leave the place. They died right there.. I don't think the cat likes the company of others."
