Cathulhu Online, MUNYA!

Chapter 250 – Cat Dad\'s Headaches Cured

"Ahem!"

Xiaomao guided Wei Zhi and Mary to the boss room while he endured the pain from a huge bump on his head. Behind him, Wei Zhi glared at the lecherous cat and covered her chest with a robe, not allowing Xiaomao to touch her again.

Mary giggled as she found Wei Zhi and Xiaomao\'s relationship cute. She thought of her husband when they were young, who behaved similarly to Xiaomao.

"Senior Taotie, senior Cernun, could you call over the newborn elite mannequins over here, munya?"

Taotie didn\'t answer Xiaomao as he was watching the live broadcast of the Immortal Tournament. Only Cernun stopped watching the show and responded.

"Give me a moment. Just wait there."

.

It took the two mannequins an hour to find a teleportation device and got to the boss room. As this was their first time visiting the inner part area of the dungeon, they were nervous.

Cernun, Mimir, and Taotie were still around. They observed their interaction on the sideline. As for Meowmeow, he stayed in the treasure room, furnishing and modifying the new dungeon floors. However, he still watched over them from the dungeon map.

Both Hildegard and Brynhildr were made from unknown white metal from the bottom of the Mermaid Lake. Their skin was smooth, but the joints of their limbs looked primitive as they were round like mannequins from the 20th century.

As for their faces, they had none. Their hairless heads were round and smooth like the other prototypes of the same generation. However, they didn\'t write their faces with lipstick, which made them less creepy. Even though their bodies and joints were imperfect, their movements were refined and graceful.

Xiaomao walked around the two mannequins, sizing them up from head to toe. As none of them were equipped with clothes, weapons, or armor, Xiaomao didn\'t worry about his safety.

After checking their hips, their faces, and their body shape for a minute, Wei Zhi coughed, warning Xiaomao of what he was doing.

"Horny cat, stop ogling them and do your job."

"Yes, mom."

"I\'M NOT YOUR MOM!"

Lucky and Mary bit their lower lips, holding back their laughter and thinking of the scene when Xiaomao sucked Wei Zhi\'s breast.

Xiaomao coughed and stood in front of the mannequins.

"Can you talk, munya?" Even though Xiaomao was in human form, he still spoke like when he was a catopus.

Brynhildr nodded, "Yes."

The sound came from the walking doll even though she had no mouth. Her voice was cold and robotic.

"Good. I\'ll get to the point, munya. Do you know Odin?"

"No."

"Are you sure, munya?"

"This is the first time I heard of it."

Doubting her, Xiaomao turned around and looked at Mary. The latter nodded and walked toward Brynhildr. She whispered.

"You can tell him the truth. He is kind, and he won\'t betray you."

"Are you sure, mother?"

"Yes. He\'s trustworthy. He saved my life and my children, and he never bullied his subordinates."

Xiaomao and others were stunned, "Mother?"

Mary hushed them and hugged Brynhildr. She patted her back before she let her go.

Brynhildr turned her head and faced Mary. A moment later, she looked at Xiaomao.

"Let me correct myself. Yes, I know Odin."

Xiaomao deeply sighed. Instead of being mad, he was relieved that Brynhildr was honest.

"How much can you remember, munya? Do you inherit the memory of the real Brynhildr or you\'re the real Brynhildr?"

"Real or not, I don\'t know. As for my memory, it is something I want to forget. Please stop reminding the events in my previous life, sir. If possible, I want to start anew without the cruel memory."

"…"

Xiaomao slowly nodded in understanding. In many legends and mythologies, Brynhildr\'s life story was tragic, so he guessed that she didn\'t want to think about it.

To sum it up short, VERY SHORT, Odin expelled Brynhildr from Asgard. She became a mortal and met a mortal hero Sigurd, and they became lovers. Later on, a brother-sister sibling, Gunner and Gudrun, drugged Sigurd and erased his memory. Sigurd forgot about his relationship with Brynhildr and was tricked into married Gudrun. Gunner later tricked Sigurd to pass Brynhildr\'s marriage tests and forced her to marry Gunner. In the end, Both siblings got their marriage partners as they wished, but they saddened and infuriated Brynhildr. Avenging Sigurd who cheated on her, she tricked Gunner into killing Sigurd before she committed suicide. The end.

This messed up story had many versions. However, Xiaomao only remembered this one.

"What about Odin, munya? Do you still want to return to him?"

"Odin thought of me as a tool. I have no desire to return to a wicked god, sir."

Xiaomao raised his brows and looked at Mary. The latter nodded and rephrased the question.

"Little Bryna, do you want to go back to Asgard one day?"

Brynhildr\'s voice was still as cold as ever, "This is my birthplace in this life, so this is my new home. Mother, please let me be with you."

Mary patted Brynhildr\'s head and looked at Xiaomao, "There you have it, boss. Can you leave her to me?"

Seeing how Mary and Brynhildr got along, Xiaomao was relieved, "Okay, munya. You\'ll be her supervisor from now on."

"Thanks, boss. You hear that, Bryna?"

Xiaomao had the urge to ask Mary why she didn\'t name her "Bryna" in the first place if she wanted to nickname her that way. He shifted his attention to Hildegard next.

Fortunately, Hildegard\'s name didn\'t come from mythos as she was mostly remembered as a nun or a saint. However, the title of Princess Knight worried him as it depicted a different tale.

"You\'re next, Hildegard, munya. Who are you in your previous life?"

"INSOLENCE! IS THIS THE TONE TO SPEAK TO A ROYALTY?!"

The mannequin pointed at Xiaomao\'s face and shouted in front of the immortals in the room, which surprised Xiaomao and everyone.

Xiaomao blinked several times as he didn\'t expect this cheesy line. She was so timid before, but she suddenly yelled even though many people here could instantly squash her. Xiaomao ceased all raging emotion before he tried again with a businessman\'s mindset.

"Okay, your highness. Could you please reveal your glorious background in your previous life to this lowly peasant, munya?"

The mannequin snorted and puffed her chest, which was made of metal alloy.

"That\'s the right attitude! I am the Great Hildegard Von Kr-*BONK* OUCH!"

1 Damage!

Mary smacked Hildegard\'s head with a metal wok that appeared out of nowhere. Xiaomao remembered it well since it was among the first few items that he had once used and discarded in the treasure room.

"Mama, that hurts!" Hildegard held her head in pain while she looked at Mary.

"Mind your tone, Hilde!"

"I-I\'m sowwy!"

"APOLOGIZE!"

Hildegard turned to Xiaomao and obediently bowed like a child, "My bad! Don\'t misunderstand! I\'m doing this because of my mother\'s order *BONK* OUCH!"

"DO IT PROPERLY!" yelled Mary.

"I\'M SORRY, SIR! I WON\'T DO IT AGAIN!"

Xiaomao and Wei Zhi held back their laughter while the immortals chuckled.

.

It turned out that Hildegard was once a princess of a mortal kingdom in her previous life, and she didn\'t know any god. Hearing the news, Xiaomao\'s headaches were gone.

"Alright. Since you become elite monsters of the dungeon, it\'s a waste to send you to the frontline without an equipment and training. For now, I want you to be Mary\'s bodyguards. Is that alright, munya?"

Hildegard and Brynhildr nodded. The immature princess hopped around Mary while Brynhildr stood still and minded her manner.

"Boo. No fighting."

Behind Xiaomao, another headache inducer was still around. Wei Zhi pursed her lips and was bored.

Lucky, who had gone back to her residence and taken a bath, returned to the boss room and saw the commotion. Upon noticing that Xiaomao was finally free, she approached him.

"Master. You haven\'t taken a bath yet. Want me to bathe you like usual?"

Wei Zhi\'s eyes and face redden, staring at Lucky with complex emotion. Then, she glared at Xiaomao.

"You pervy cat! Did you do it with this NPC?!"

Xiaomao pretended that he didn\'t hear Wei Zhi\'s voice. He coughed and looked at Lucky.

"No, I\'m busy today, munya. Lucky, can you teach Wei Zhi about the basic cultivation method? She\'s still level 1, and she has never eaten a spirit stone before. We need to increase her strength a bit before I can bring her along."

When Xiaomao mentioned that Wei Zhi was still level 1, Cernun\'s eyes glittered. The lizardman walked toward her.

"I normally don\'t pay attention to any mortal and the stupid level system, but I always enjoy teaching younglings, fairies, and children about cultivation in my pass time. Say, little girly, have you ever practiced a cultivation method yet?"

Wei Zhi looked at the lizardman with four question marks as level. She shrunk back in fear and looked at Xiaomao.

The cat nodded at her, "Tell him the truth. He\'s trustworthy, munya. He helped me several times already."

"…"

Mimir looked at Wei Zhi and teased Cernun, "Looking for a disciple now, eh? Are you that bored?"

Cernun turned around, "Imagine yourself when you were trapped in that god-forsaken monastery without books to read. I\'m that bored."

"Hahaha! Just kidding, brother. Go ahead. She\'s the clone of Mao Miaomiao\'s wife, so her foundation is rock solid from the start. You simply need to train her a bit, and she will be stronger than me in no time."

"I\'m aware," Cernun turned his attention to Wei Zhi. "How about it? Wanna be my disciple? I can teach you a thing or two about your true potential as an Oni."

"My… My potential?" Wei Zhi took the bait.

"Have you ever heard of the strongest Oni God that made Devil go insane and created 13 clones, including Mao Miaomiao, to defeat him? Before the Great Reset, his name was Kishin Douji, and he mastered the Chaos Element and the power of time. Coincidentally, Wei Yuan, the wife of Mao Miaomiao, also mastered the Chaos Element, but she never showed it to anybody."

Chaos Element?

Not only Wei Zhi, Lucky, and Xiaomao were intrigued, but Taotie and Mimir were also interested. They listened to the old story that Cernun knew.

"I\'m sure you all are curious about the Chaos Element. This will be a long story, so…" Cernun bitterly smiled at Xiaomao, "I\'m afraid you can\'t stay here and listen to my lecture for today. Don\'t you have something more urgent to do?"

"AH, CRAP, MUNYA!"

Reminded of Meowmeow\'s assignment, Xiaomao immediately transformed into a human. He changed his clothes in front of the ladies and vanished, teleporting from the game world to the human world.

Wei Zhi, Brynhildr, and Hildegard managed to catch a glimpse of Xiaomao\'s mythical sword. The Oni swallowed her saliva in shock while the dolls deeply sighed.

Lucky proudly smiled from ear to ear as she already tasted the sword. She triumphantly looked at the women, claiming her victory with her expression.

Mary noticed it and shook her head. Wei Zhi didn\'t think much, but she was somewhat frustrated.

Cernun clapped his hands and continued his story.

"Where was I? Oh, right, the Chaos Element. Now, children, listen carefully since I will only tell you this story once. *AHEM* Very very long time ago, long before the Great Reset, I was once a wood dragon on a faraway planet…"
