The black cat’s eyes lit up. He didn’t dare to make eye contact with Jaws, turning his head and pretending to groom his fur.

Even without seeing his expression, the black cat felt a chill down his spine, and his movements grew stiffer.

The space was crowded, and even with Edmund’s strong mental composure, under such pressure, it was hard to remain calm.

The black cat froze for a moment.

Even though it was just for an instant, he revealed a flaw.

Sweat ran down his back, but he wasn’t giving up, still trying to keep up the act.

He couldn’t remember this experiment subject anymore, as he had never paid attention.

Pirates, and you’re just an experiment?”
