Chapter 134: Dark Demon's New Pet
The shop assistant of Kitties Flower and Tree Shop was in her early twenties. Her hair was tied behind her head with a hair band, but she left two strands of curly hair hanging before her ears. She was wearing an apron and gloves—very plain.
Students liked to call her Miss Cat.
Miss Cat had a vivid impression of the blond teenager.
In fact, she had a very good memory. If anyone bought cat grass in her store, she would remember it.
Seeing that the teenager was immersed in the pleasure of petting cats and couldn\'t extricate himself, she didn\'t have the heart to disturb him. She just squinted her eyes and looked at him softly.
Cat Grass was a gift from heaven, and she liked anyone who liked Cat Grass.
...
After petting the cat grass for half an hour, Dark reluctantly put down the cat from his lap.
Among the cat grasses displayed outside the store, there were only a few other styles other than cats.
These cat grasses were relatively popular, but Dark needed other types of cat grass for reference.
There isn\'t much Pride left, so the next experimental point should be [The Fruit of Lust].
And the animals that match [Lust] and the moon are naturally foxes, wolves, rabbits... Or, vampires, succubus?
Taking into account the need to be bred in the dormitory, it is best to be a smaller and quieter type.
For example, bunny grass?
In fact, bunny grass is indeed a good choice.
Quiet and timid.
Easy to keep.
Whether in myths or legends, or in the world of Digimon and Pokémon, there were quite a few species that were based on rabbits.
Of course Dark had his own ideas.
He was very interested in Dianamon, the Moon God in Digimon.
Dianamon\'s Rookie level form, Lunamon, is based on a rabbit.
And the opposite of it was Apollomon, the Sun God in Digimon.
Although [Gatomon] was made using [Fruit of Pride] this time, Dark still had fantasies about Apollomon.
Dianamon and Apollomon, symbolising "moon" and "sun" respectively, are not only Mega Level Digimons themselves but can also fusion-evolve into [Grace Novamon].
And if Dark could use [Fruit OF Lust] and [Fruit of Pride] to refine "Moon God" and "Sun God" respectively, the results of deadly sin analysis would also be extraordinary!
...
In addition, "Pokémon" also has "Moon Beast" and "Sun Beast".
They are "the Moon\'s messenger" Lunala, which is based on a bat, and "the Sun\'s messenger" Solgaleo, which is based on a lion.
...
Of course, the above is only Dark\'s fantasy at the moment.
Considering that Dark didn\'t find bunny grass in the shop assistant\'s secret room last time, everything was still uncertain.
After Dark put down the cat grass, he went to the shop assistant: "Miss Cat, I want to get another kind of cat grass; can you take me to see the new test product?"
The shop assistant naturally would not refuse: "Yes, of course. How is the pot of cat grass in your house?"
Dark smiled. "It\'s very healthy."
The shop assistant turned around and took Dark to the secret room he had entered last time.
Even though he had been here once, he still couldn\'t adapt to the environment of this secret room very well.
There were more Cat Grass than the last time Dark came, and they were densely placed in the room.
And the most conspicuous of them was that huge goldfish!
The shop assistant had clearly been taking good care of the goldfish: it\'s getting bigger and more chubby!
And around the goldfish, the rest of the cat grasses were also healthy.
Dark resisted the psychological discomfort and searched among the piles of cat grass.
The shop assistant began happily, "What do you think? The recent customers\' responses have been very good, so we added more improved products. For example, the pot of cow grass can now not only be kept as a pet but can also produce juice, which can satisfy customers\' need of having a cup of milk every day.”
"Jui, juice?"
Dark\'s eyelids twitched uncontrollably. The pot of cat grass that the shop assistant pointed to was a little knee-high cow, so the juice she was talking about...
Dark couldn\'t help muttering: "Maybe it can be used to make a big milk jug."
The shop assistant: "What?"
Dark: "No, it\'s nothing. I was wondering, why isn\'t there a variety like Bunny Grass that will surely be liked by many people?"
The shop assistant replied embarrassedly: "It\'s still in the development phase... Well, in fact, we haven\'t solved the problem that bunny grass is easily scared to death by high-decibel sounds."
Dark: "Really?"
The shop assistant shrugged; "Oh well, it\'s scaredy-cat-grass after all."
Dark thought for a while, then said, "When this problem is solved, can I order one?"
The shop assistant said happily: "Of course you can."
Dark checked the secret room for a while, wondering, "Is there any cat grass of the lion variety?"
Miss shop assistant: "We haven\'t solved the problem of the lion grass biting people."
Dark: "o-kay... I\'ll pre-order one of those too."
...
Things didn\'t go as smoothly as Dark had imagined.
The so-called test product was almost equal to a defective product.
Not to mention the bunny grass and lion grass that have not yet been developed, most of the cat grasses in this secret room had biological defects.
→ They are not as mature as the original cat grass.
Among them, the ones with complete biological traits were the type that would make people speechless.
Such as the most prominent goldfish, and the previously mentioned cow.
In short.
No foxes, no bunnies, no bats.
But there were dogs and mice.
Dogs were puppies similar to English bulldogs.
The mouse was a chipmunk with a brownish coat.
With the situation that he already had a cat grass at his dormitory, it was hard for Dark to imagine what tragedies would transpire by stuffing a puppy and a chipmunk into his dormitory.
But that goldfish was too creepy.
And he didn\'t want to raise a baby cow in the dormitory.
Not to mention the spider grass and the scorpion grass, it was scary just thinking about it!
When he would have his own club studio in the future, he might consider these things— but if it was to be kept in the dormitory, it would be really difficult.
"How about that little cow?"
"Maybe it can really be cultivated into a big milk tank?"
"And the juice produced by cow grass can also be put into Shuckle for re-fermentation. Maybe it can produce juice with special effects?"
"Thinking about it like this, I suddenly think it\'s not that bad!"
"Moreover the cat grass won\'t grow up, and this little cow is just knee-high. It\'s not bad to keep a pet cow."
Dark tried to convince himself, and then, considering the sustainable development strategy, the final decision was made.
...
"If the development of bunny grass is completed, be sure to keep one for me!"
After Dark confirmed his pre-order with the shop assistant again, he returned to the dormitory with a pot of cow grass.
