After the Lord of the Abyss Awakens - Extra 2.1

Around 8 PM.

“Aeli, Aeli, aren’t you preparing a gift?”

The cow cat appeared to scout the situation.

Aelioge was a competitive demon with a brain, but recently He seemed preoccupied and quiet, the whole demon had become quite gloomy.

For instance, right now, He was on the roof at night, His black fur almost merging with the darkness.

The black and white cow cat was similar, only Her paw area appeared particularly bright against the snow.

The black cat glanced at the cow cat with deep eyes, then turned away silently and continued contemplating.

The cow cat was confused and walked over to the black cat’s side, waving Her paw in front of the black cat, “Aeli, Aeli, what are you doing meow?”

The black cat found Him slightly annoying and coldly said, “You wouldn’t understand.”

The cow cat got angry, “What wouldn’t I understand, tell me quickly!”

The black cat’s eyes were dark, and the aura of plague unconsciously leaked out a bit.

“Go sleep.”

Saying this, He jumped down to the courtyard and walked toward the bookstore.

The cow cat was somewhat angry, raised Her eyebrows, but quickly figured it out.

“He cares about Big Brother that much?”

At this moment, the ragdoll cat suddenly appeared and said, “Of course He cares, haven’t you noticed that He hasn’t been close to Father since Big Brother came back?”

The cow cat was stunned, “It seems so.”

The ragdoll cat shook Her head and said, “This is His heart knot meow.”

The cow cat blinked, not understanding, only feeling that Aelioge was acting strange, “What’s there to care about?”

“Childhood trauma probably.”

The calico cat suddenly spoke in the darkness.

The clouds parted to reveal the moon, and a beam of moonlight scattered down, falling on the calico cat, making Her look particularly beautiful.

“Sister Barbatos, you’re here too.”

The ragdoll cat was happy and nuzzled Her head against the calico cat.

The calico cat patted the ragdoll cat’s head, then took out their last family photo from His fur.

In the first photo, the black cat was furthest from the golden tiger, in the second photo, the black cat was staring at the golden tiger, His eyes full of fighting spirit.

The cow cat tilted Her head, “So what should we do meow?”

The calico cat stroked Her chin and said, “Handle this before Father’s birthday party.”

Hearing this, a light bulb seemed to appear above the ragdoll cat’s head, lighting up.

“I know, let’s call it Operation Big Brother and Aelioge Become Friends!”

The cow cat thought it sounded fun and raised Her paw, “Yay, I support it!”

The calico cat smiled and said, “Then we need to find more helpers.”

A few minutes later, they caught the silver cat Beelzebub.

“Beelzebub, you’re smart, we need your cooperation for this operation!”

The cow cat was straightforward.

The silver cat turned His head and said indifferently, “What operation.”

The cow cat then announced the plan.

The silver cat couldn’t hold back His laughter halfway through, “Alright, I’m in.”

The three cats exchanged smiles, yay, successfully recruited.

The silver cat thought and said, “We might need to add more helpers depending on the situation.”

So, the next one they found was Bachin.

Bachin had been working on the Abyss lately, almost dying from staying up late, and didn’t expect these demons to bring a new task.

The blue and white cat Bachin was speechless, He thought there was nothing wrong with how Aelioge was acting.

“How long has Aelioge been viewing Big Brother as an imaginary enemy? You’re only trying to correct Him now?”

The blue and white cat took a sip of coffee, lazily swinging His leg.

However, one sentence from the silver cat convinced Him.

“For Father’s sake.”

The blue and white cat’s body trembled, and He frowned and said, “Since you put it that way, let the operation begin!”

So, the blue and white cat and calico cat jointly monitored the black cat’s actions.

In the darkness, a screen lit up, showing the black cat in the bookstore.

He turned on the desk lamp. Yes, there was already a desk lamp now.

Under the desk lamp, the black cat was reading a book, His eyes intense.

What book was He reading?

All the cats stretched their necks, looked carefully, and widened their eyes.

It was “108 Ways to Cleverly Defeat Tigers”!

The silver cat couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

The blue and white cat shook His head, “Is He serious?”

The calico cat agreed, “He might be serious, I heard Him discussing with Paimon during the day about how to defeat Big Brother.”

The silver cat turned His head, “And then?”

The calico cat. “Paimon said at the time that pure combat was impossible, but there was a chance in pure fighting without any supernatural powers, that’s why Paimon was so dedicated to practicing combat techniques.”

The silver cat suddenly understood, “Indeed, Big Brother has strong powers, most of the time He can purely overwhelm others, rarely using any techniques, techniques are His relative weakness.”

The calico cat nodded. “Yes, if Aelioge challenges Big Brother to MMA, there might be a chance of victory.”

The ragdoll cat and cow cat beside them were both stunned.

The cow cat’s eyes lit up and said, “Are they going to do MMA!”

She said while throwing punches, looking excited and wanting to join in.

The silver cat stroked His chin and said, “But Aeli is different from Paimon, He’s not very good at fighting to begin with, right?”

As everyone knew, despite Aelioge’s appearance, He was actually a real clean freak. When He was young, He would get very upset if He accidentally fell in the mud, so He didn’t like fist fights that could get Him dirty at any time.

The calico cat. “That’s why He needs to practice.”

The silver cat frowned. “But the time now…”

Just then, the black cat closed the book, jumped down from the chair, walked to the adjacent study, opened the door, and saw the Maine Coon cat inside.

The black cat said seriously, “Fourth Brother, I’m ready.”

The Maine Coon cat at the desk watched Him.

The other cats widened their eyes.

The cow cat exclaimed in shock. “Wow, He actually went to Fourth Brother for training!”

The ragdoll cat suddenly understood. “I get it, with Light Body’s help, time won’t be an issue, there’ll be plenty for practice!”

As they were talking, they saw the black cat walk into the Maine Coon cat’s domain with a face full of resolve.

“Such determination, He knows Fourth Brother is a demon obsessed with education, yet He still resolutely chose this path!”

“Aeli, you move demons to tears.”

Then, they saw the Maine Coon cat disappear too. He obviously went to train Aelioge.

Aelioge, such a determined demon, how long would He practice in there?

The five cats looked at each other, feeling only admiration.

A few seconds later, the Maine Coon cat appeared, His expression serious, shaking His head.

“What’s going on!”

The cow cat got nervous, like She had invested heavily in a stock and couldn’t bear to see it fall.

They saw the Maine Coon cat take out a glass of strawberry milk from the void.

The reason they could tell it was strawberry milk was because there were real strawberries in the milk.

Their Fourth Brother was consistent inside and out, handling matters seriously and conscientiously, but regarding food preferences, He perfectly inherited from Father, having a special fondness for strawberries, mangoes, lychees, and watermelons. When troubled, having a drink would naturally resolve most worries.

They saw that after drinking the milk, the majestic Maine Coon cat showed a faint smile, as if experiencing a moment of brief happiness.

They hadn’t seen Fourth Brother so relaxed before, and couldn’t help feeling curious.

They saw the Maine Coon cat rest for a while before suddenly saying, “You’re here.”

Who came? The five cats wondered.

Then they saw space distort, and the Torbie cat walked out from it.

It was Paimon!

The Maine Coon nodded and said to the Torbie cat, “I leave Him to you.”

The Torbie cat said seriously, “Alright.”

After speaking, the domain opened again, and the Torbie cat walked in.

The Maine Coon cat didn’t immediately enter the domain, this time taking out a… mango smoothie!

The five cats watching secretly looked at each other, feeling like they had seen something they shouldn’t have.

About ten minutes later, after the Maine Coon cat finished the mango smoothie, He finally leisurely went into the domain.

The ragdoll cat said, “Fourth Brother is cute.”

The cow cat nodded in agreement, indeed cute.

The silver cat came back to His senses and said, “It looks like the battle is inevitable now.”

The calico cat agreed, “Not fighting wouldn’t be Aelioge, He is the God of War, god of wars naturally crave victory.”

At this time, the blue and white cat suddenly said, “Look, there’s another one!”

They saw a piece of whole wheat bread appear on the desk.

It was their Fifth Brother Marbas!

What was He doing at night?

The golden cat was holding a small golden figure, placed it on the desk, then took out another golden figure from His fur.

His fur was thick, like a bottomless storage bag, holding countless things that could be taken out at any time.

The cow cat couldn’t help laughing. “Haha, Fifth Brother is exposed, He really is going to give Father gold!”

The golden cat seemed to hear the sound and immediately looked up while gathering His things.

The four cats glared at the cow cat. The cow cat ducked slightly and immediately fell silent.

The golden cat looked around, seemed to not discover anything, but still appeared a bit uncomfortable, so He packed up and left.

The five cats looked at each other again.

“Shall we continue watching?”

Half an hour later, the Maine Coon cat appeared.

This time, He showed an expression that seemed to indicate success, elegantly drinking a glass of lychee iced tea.

The five cats were amazed, wondering where Fourth Brother got so many drinks.

The calico cat suddenly thought of it, it must have been Lelagin who specially made them for Fourth Brother during the day.

Fourth Brother went to the kitchen in the afternoon! Such a demon who knows how to enjoy life.

The ragdoll cat: “Hey hey, focus on the main point! Does Fourth Brother’s expression mean Aeli has completed His training!”

The five cats found it hard to believe.

The silver cat thought it was impossible.

But the Maine Coon cat’s smile didn’t seem fake.

Perhaps He really found some way?

The calico cat was still thinking, but then She thought back.

“Weren’t we trying to get Aeli and Big Brother to get along?” What about the operation?

Watch them fight? As the God of Harmony, the calico cat couldn’t sit by and do nothing.

So, She almost took action.

The ragdoll cat discovered Her movement in time and grabbed the calico cat, saying. “Eighth Sister, what are you going to do meow.”

The calico cat said seriously, “They’re about to fight, I’m going to stop them.”

By now, the ragdoll cat was in a mood to watch the excitement, what would they do if Eighth Sister mediated?

The cow cat suddenly said, “Don’t meow.”

She turned to look at the calico cat, showing an unprecedented serious expression, “This is a very important battle of victory and defeat for Aeli meow.”

Her rare serious expression shocked the calico cat for a moment. The calico cat originally thought little Ayni was the demon who loved to join in the fun and laugh the most, but looking today, She seemed to have grown up.

The calico cat thought for a moment and nodded. “Alright.”

Saying this, She turned back to look at the study.

She didn’t know that as soon as She turned Her head, the cow cat couldn’t suppress Her upturned corners of the mouth anymore.

The cow cat clapped Her paws, just short of directly going down to fan the flames.

The ragdoll cat who witnessed this scene: “……”

The silver cat didn’t make a sound, showing a thoughtful expression.

The blue and white cat just smiled without speaking, with a meaning of quietly observing how things would develop.

At six o’clock the next morning.

In the study, the black cat walked out from the domain, His whole body filled with fighting spirit, His temperament extraordinary, with each step He took, space distorted a bit, looking like He had completed His training and was ready to challenge Big Brother!

The five cats watching almost fell asleep, finally seeing the protagonist appear.

The Maine Coon cat and Torbie cat also appeared, they watched the black cat, their eyes showing varying degrees of satisfaction.

The five cats watching showed surprised expressions.

The Maine Coon cat said, “Congratulations.”

The black cat looked up, suddenly struck a paw at the air, appearing ordinary but actually shattering a planet across the void.

The Torbie cat nodded, “Not bad.”

The black cat then withdrew His paw, His expression quite like that of a martial arts grandmaster who had reached the pinnacle meow.

The five cats watching couldn’t believe it.

Aeli, had He really succeeded?

They didn’t know how long Aelioge had practiced in the domain, perhaps decades, perhaps thousands of years, but no matter how long, the current Aelioge was definitely a completely different demon from before.

Then, in the next second, Aelioge tagged His Big Brother in the cat-headed demon group chat.

[Big Brother, I challenge you to a battle, MMA!]

When these words came out, almost all demons were shocked.

The little kitten Amon immediately became energetic, letting out His first burst of laughter of the morning.

Last time was a group fight, and this time was it a one-on-one? Aelioge actually had such courage?

No matter what, it would be entertaining.

Zepar saw this shocking challenge and immediately said, “Aeli, have you gone mad?”

Aelioge said, “I’m serious, Big Brother, please accept my challenge!”

The crowd of demons tactically leaned back, discussions broke out immediately, some demons tried to persuade Aelioge not to be rash, demon life was important, that old tiger didn’t know how to control His strength, one paw strike and you wouldn’t be able to straighten your back for half a year.

But Aelioge was unyielding and very serious, sending another challenge letter.

The crowd was stunned.

More shocking was that Samikina, Marbas, Paimon and others actually liked the post.

Other demons didn’t say anything, but how could Fourth Brother support internal fighting, they had finally whitewashed- no! Finally restored their reputation.

But looking carefully, even Second Brother had liked it!

Now they were dumbfounded.

What did Second Brother mean, did He want to watch too?

While they were confused in their hearts, Morax couldn’t contain His emotions anymore and excitedly said, “I support Aeli too! This is a challenge, not a fight, completely legitimate.”

Sitri couldn’t help but look at Him with new eyes, since even Second Brother had liked this battle.

Then, Big Brother appeared.

He had even changed to a tiger head avatar, when He had been using the default avatar before!

The crowd was shocked.

And then, Big Brother’s reply was actually just [Alright].

Such a simple word. The domineering and composed aura rushed through the screen.

Aelioge looked and quickly typed out the time and location.

The crowd looked carefully and was even more shocked.

It was actually on their own rooftop in half an hour!

What was He thinking, was the rooftop a place to fight? Was it enough for Big Brother’s gentle paw pat?

Although it was a flat roof, just right for an arena, but their family had so many demons, they could use any place, why specifically here?

The watching crowd was stunned, feeling a bit confused.
