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.

“Is it?” Jaws asked with a half–smile, looking down at the black cat.

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 air grew quiet for a long moment.

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.

Jaws lost patience and stopped playing along. “Stop pretending in front of me, I can see through you.”

Although the modification failed, it gave him the ability to transform into a cat.

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