Chapter 451 – Day 885 – Purging, All The Purging

I was laying down on my inclined resting platform. There was no light, no sound, nothing to distract me. The edges of the room were covered in those enchanted blankets to block out energy. That included the floor and the ceiling.

This was done so I could use my Sense stat to the fullest without being distracted by outside shifts in energy. This room only had my personal energy I drew and the little bit of ambient energy in the air. I would use Air Burst outside the room to drai...

Chapter 11 – Making Friends

There was a large communal area with four cooking sections and personal rooms arranged around the edge. We checked the rooms as a group, but they were all the same size. Each room had its own personal bathroom. Only the kitchen and common seating area were shared spaces.

Creatures began picking their rooms. Sharpfang and Shattertooth got into an argument about a room, both wanting the same one. I could tell they were posturing and tired, but they didn’t want the other one to get ahead...

Chapter 10 – The Other Applicants

“This is the applicant obstacle course. You will train to progress through this as quickly and efficiently as possible. Speed, economy of motion, and spatial awareness are all traits that must be built up and carefully cultivated if you are to survive in your profession.”

“In the past not all assassins or technicians were expected to be physically fit. This was found to lead to high attrition rates. They lacked reaction time and the ability to relocate in the face of danger. Bette...

Chapter 450 – Day 872 (Part 4) – Trouble, Terror, and Tenacity

People were scrambling and being brought for restorations. Doctor Katz was performing triage for the limited supply of crystals we had on hand. Clarissa had quickly taken control, organizing people to sweep the plaza and secure the area.

I walked over to one of the explosion sites. I had waved off the soldiers, telling them to protect Clarissa instead. I was confident I could survive, but Clarissa had nowhere near my number of stats. If she died or was injured, it would be a disaster. 2023-04-06 23:01:02 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 449 – Day 872 (Part 3) – An Imperial Gathering

The questions were closed off and a soldier brought me a plate with two burgers. It was impressive how quickly the food was prepared, but cooked meat was a luxury for the most part. I sat on my throne as a couple of people had instruments. They were used slightly, which showed people had been busy purchasing animal products from Neo Brasilia.

Clarissa came over and I decided that sitting above lording everyone was boring. I picked up the chair with the flag of Purgatory draped over it a...

Chapter 9 – Paladin Bloodclaw

The only way to keep track of time was when there was a knock on my door and a meal tray was left in the hallway. I picked it up and it was quite filling. Fresh fish, some fruit that was green, and some pasta with some alfredo sauce.

The portions were cat sized, which was really nice. I would finish my meal and leave it outside the door, only taking a quick look up and down the empty hallway before closing it, not daring to venture out. There were two meals a day and the rest of the tim...

Chapter 8 – The Island

We left the cargo ship when it docked at an island. Mousethief soon picked us up in the car and we drove to the far side of the island. “This place we are going to is the headquarters of the Covenant Assassins. Most people would guess that we would be based out the Warrior’s Cathedral, the headquarters of the Church of the Covenant,” Mousethief explained using the full official name for the Covenant Church when referring to their main location.

I was in the front seat and my fathe...

Chapter 7 – A Storm of Screams

I just sat in the car was the rain and storm got worse. Another car pulled up and began blaring their horn at me. Mousethief why did you have to park so poorly? What should I do? They kept blaring their car horn.

There was lightning overhead as I felt the sound of thunder in my chest. That had been close I gulped and unbuckled myself. I needed to handle this. I got out of the car and into the rain. I walked over to the other vehicle’s driver window and knocked on it. It was rolled dow...

Chapter 6 – A Huddle Of Heretics

“Why did I have to sneak off the ship?” I asked Mousethief. I had mentally spoken with Mes but hadn’t dared use the Interface to check my skills while other people were around and might see the glow from the stone.

Mes had let me know my father would net me around 5,000 EXP and Mousethief around 2,000. That was a lot of EXP, but it gave me a better sense of how much EXP I could expect. Mes had informed me there was a skill called Observe I could purchase to let me know the estimat...

Chapter 5 – Life Of A Cat Assassin

I sat there in the container recovering my breath as I tried to process everything. My father handed me a bottle of water which I quickly drank to calm my nerves. “An assassin?” I finally asked.

“Yes. I have many nicknames, but none of them matter much. I work for the Covenant Church,” he replied. I took another sip of water.

“But they killed the cats and…and they have Paladins?” I asked, confused how it all worked.

“They won the wars with their crusades. The...

Chapter 4 – An Absent Father

I didn’t see Fleece today. He must have been busy with his cultists. I was making good progress. Movement was up to 9 and listening was up to 12. Mes had let me know the first levels would come quickly and easily, but it would get much harder.

Everyone sat down for dinner at the group home, and we all clasped our paws. It didn’t matter which creature any of us were. If we disrespected the meal prayer, there would be holy hell to pay. After a moment where Miss Whitefur confirmed ever...

Chapter 3 – An Interface

My eyes shot open. That had been the strangest dream. There was a talking stone and it wanted me to join a cult.

‘Not a cult Mittens.’ I jumped a bit on my bed. A small floating kitten that glowed blue and was slightly translucent appeared. It was wearing an ancient robe and rope belt with no markings.

“Mes?” I asked.

‘Yes. Only you can see me or anything else that is glowing blue. You can also speak to me in your mind. Try it now.’

‘Lik...

Chapter 2 – A MES Appears

I lay in my too small bed, my homework done. I didn’t have the motivation to study more. What was the point as a cat? I just needed to pass my classes and then join the military. Fight in some distant jungle against the hordes of snake cultists and actual snakes.

The good news was I had my own room. Since a cat wasn’t to be trusted with other creatures. It was a closet, with no lock on the door, barely able to fit a bed, and no window. The bed was too small, I couldn’t lay out all...

Chapter 1 – Historical Implications

I sat in the back of the classroom listening to Miss Softfur the vole lecture the class on history. “That was why in year 280 After Unification, or AU, the second conclave was held and formed the Church of the Covenant. The ancestral Warrior Spirit blessed the proceedings.”

“This would lead to the first crusade as the various factions of the Warrior Spirit united under a single a banner. Each conclave appointed one High Priest and would elect the Warrior’s Voice to safeguard the...

Prologue

“Tom Cat, you have finally come,” Luke, the old mouse priest said while looking out the window, his back to the door. While he didn’t see the assassin, he said these words every night before he fell asleep. For one night would eventually be his last. He had gone against the Covenant Church, and there was no escape from their reach. He knew they would send their best against him, for nothing less would do to enforce their message of silence.

He clutched the note and warning he had ...

Announcement: Second Story, Tom Cat And Murder Mittens

Hello everyone. First, let me say thank you all for your support. Last month was really rough on me. Screwing up a major plot point and having to rewrite several chapters, getting deathly sick where my brain felt like it was melting, and then losing power.

You amazing people who have stuck with me, thank you. Your words of encouragement helped me greatly. I haven't been as active in engagement, in Discord or on RR since there has been a lot of pressure on me.

Chapter 448 – Day 872 (Part 2) – Emperor Michael

A line quickly formed, and people were allowed to ask me one question each. Other people listened in nearby. There were four guards around my platform to keep people away from my rear and to stop a rush towards me. I wouldn’t be doing this on a regular basis, but initial impressions mattered a lot. Better to solidify things first and then focus on fixing the curse damage and Astrologer tumors still inside of me.

This was my idea, which I had taken from Carlos. He had done something si...

Chapter 447 – Day 872 – Ceremony

I approached Purgatory in the morning along with everyone else. The city had been rebuilt in the wake of the disaster that the upgrade had left it in. I walked with Clarissa and the rest of the people trailed behind. More people were also showing up as well from other nearby campsites.

One thing I had missed, was that the arrivals in Purgatory had been killed off on day 870 while I had been running around. I hadn’t even thought of them. Since the tower, my day counting hadn’t been t...

Chapter 446 – Day 871 (Part 2) – The Rights Of The People

“I swear to follow the commands of Emperor Michael. Now until the end of the Systemic Lands. To protect the interests of the Emperor, the Empire of Purgatory, and then the people in that order. To never side with outside forces. On my life I make this pledge and vow,” General Abdullah swore to me and bowed.

Doctor Katz was next. “There is no need for the good doctor to make a pledge. He already carries one in his heart and has my trust,” I said.

“Thank you, Emperor Micha...

Chapter 445 – Day 871 – An Empire Is Born

Water was poured in a cup for me, and I sipped it. “What’s the agenda?” I asked Clarissa. I looked at the men and a few women at the table in front of me. I recognized Doctor Katz and Commander Abdullah. Everyone else was a new face.

“The first thing we should do is have you confirm the appointments of everyone into your government,” Clarissa said. I looked around and some people shifted uneasily and looked away from me.

“Are there any objections to my title of Emperor...

Chapter 444 – Day 869 – A Tsunami Of Despair

I was exhausted. Screw the super slimes with a rusty stick right up their rear. I knew slimes didn’t have a rear, but it was honestly getting a bit ridiculous at this point. The city wall was gone, and there was not a city trench instead.

The super slimes chasing me, slowly melted into the gray city stone. While it hadn’t been that much at first, after ten laps it was noticeable. After twenty laps, it was officially a trench. A day and a half of just running around this city was not...

Chapter 443 – Day 867 (Part 2) – A Tidal Wave

I watched as the sky worms approached. I was kind of looking forward to this fight. I had already done it a couple of times, but that was what made it so great. It was an easy benchmark I could look at for my progress in terms of combat.

The flying worms came in and I kicked off the ground, quickly gaining height. Air Burst. Acid Shot x2. My attacks easily hit them. I didn’t really care about saving energy either, since I knew there were only ten. The one thing the Almighty S...

Chapter 442 - Day 867 - Returning Home

Clarissa was in her element getting everything packed up and handing out orders to various messengers, she had summoned after I had arrived at her bunker yesterday.

She was supervising, handing out messages, but she wasn’t doing any of the packing herself. It was a big difference compared to the Rising Sun Alliance in the Dragon Empire. That had been a sad group.

They had completely disappeared. No news, no attacks, nothing. It was a bit concerning but there were limited methods...
