An Extra’s POV

Ater was a Bakeneko.

It was a creature of utmost malevolence and deceit.

According to legends, it often caused mischief and wrought misfortune upon any land it trod.

Its desire was nothing beyond absolute chaos.

But now, under a Master it could not resist, the creature had been tamed.

Its will wss tied to its master, and for the first time… it had to follow an order.

"My true form…" Ater had no choice but to utter words of honesty to its master.

"… I can't remember."

As a creature of darkness and chaos, it had changed to so many forms that it couldn't even remember what it looked like from the beginning.

"I can be whatever you desire." Ater whispered, its head still bowed very low.

It could feel the weight of its master's gaze upon him.

No one needed to tell it before it could realize the gap in the abilities—how powerful its master truly was.

In a way, it came as a relief to the Absolute Beast.

At the very least, the one who subdued it—whom it was forced to call Master—was much stronger than it.

"I see. Take on another form, then. I don't feel very comfortable seeing you as a cat."

The Bakeneko nodded instantly.

It could feel that its master was being genuine with it, and so it had to obey.

It scoured its thoughts, searching for the perfect form to please its master.

The best thing that would make its master comfortable.

'I see…' The Absolute Beast grinned as it began its transformation.

Darkness swirled around its body like a mist, completely shrouding its full form as it began to grow in height and weight.

It lost its tail and fur, instead taking on the skin of a human.

Blood red hair danced on its humanoid head, and its eyes were now human.
