The inn was a distance from Iron Cross Street; Roger walked for about twenty minutes before arriving.
During this time, the tabby cat had been quietly perched on his shoulder, not making a sound, and responding with a look of curiosity to the strange gazes of passersby.
The gentlemanly dressed Roger paired with a dirty little stray cat, no matter what, was a very eye-catching situation.
"'Attention Seeker' Potion has digested a little bit more..."
Roger quietly felt the changes within himself, pushed open the inn's door, and then, while the front desk receptionist wasn't paying attention, quickly went up to the Second Floor and returned to his guest room.
Most inns in Tingen City prohibited bringing animals in, although he had the need to act as an Attention Seeker, but this was two different things from deliberately provoking.
"Click."
Closing the door, Roger breathed a long sigh.
He grabbed the cat, which was looking around, took it to the Washroom, gave it a good bath, and then used a towel to dry it, placing it by the fireplace to dry its fur.
Taking this opportunity, Roger went downstairs to the restaurant in the inn and ordered half a Garlic Bread, a bowl of vegetable soup, a few slices of Salted Meat, and a bottle of fresh Milk, and brought it back to the room with a tray.
He poured the Milk for the cat, watching it eat heartily, and finally relaxed, eating Lunch while reading the Notes he had brought from the Abraham Family Base.
"'Apprentice' Potion Formula... After consumption, one can, With the Help of the connection to the Spirit World, freely pass through solid mediums such as walls and locked doors."
As a Family that completely Mastered a Path of the Gods, the Abraham Family's research on "Apprentice" could be said to be extremely rich, with many Details that Roger had never understood, and for a time, he was overwhelmed.
The Notes even contained a lot of discussion about the symbols and essence of the "Door" Pathway, as well as an explanation of the "Acting Method," which were all knowledge treasures that wild Beyonders could not access.
"If it weren't for Mr. 'Door' causing the Descendants to never produce a Demigod, the Abraham Family would have probably developed into a powerful Family that was not inferior to the Tudor Family."
Roger felt a little emotional, but thinking that the Influences that Mastered the Gou Sanjia Pathway were somewhat abnormal, he didn't dwell on these things.
Wiping his mouth, Roger took out the "Apprentice" Potion Auxiliary Material and Beaker he had brought from the Family in advance, and began to heat it with the Oil Lamp provided by the inn.
He added the Auxiliary Material to the Beaker in order according to the amount, and then took out the Sequence 9 "Apprentice" Extraordinary Characteristic that he had previously separated from his body and added it to it.
The Potion quickly stabilized and took shape; he removed the Beaker from the Oil Lamp, poured out the Potion, and then made an enticing Sound to the tabby cat, which had just finished licking the Milk and was still unsatisfied.
This cat had been hungry for too long, and it finally had a meal but always felt like it wasn't full; seeing that Roger gave it a gelatinous Jelly-like item, it ate it without thinking.
"Burp..."
Roger clearly heard the cat in front of him, lying on the ground, squinting its Eyes, and looking satisfied, burp.
He didn't dare to take it lightly and sat down to observe.
In the original work, when Susie ate the "Audience" Potion, she was already the weight of a large dog, and the current tabby cat was still too small; Heaven knows if it would show any symptoms of Loss of control and turn into a Monster.
Sure enough, the tabby cat, which had been lying comfortably on the ground, suddenly let out a strange cry and turned over and stood up.
It arched its Back like it was frightened, its fur standing on end, and began to make a sharp hissing Sound at the corner of the wall.
Roger hurriedly went forward to comfort it, but he didn't expect that the tabby cat would charge and directly enter the wall, disappearing without a trace.
"'Apprentice's' wall-crossing?"
Roger was stunned, and the next moment he heard the woman's exclamation, the sound of stomping feet, and the sound of a heavy object falling from the next-door room.
Someone also started pressing the call button for the front desk while cursing.
"It's over, this is a big deal."
The occurrence of a Transcendence event related to animals in a bustling area would likely alarm the Nighthawks team to come out and search, and he would definitely get into trouble.
Although he wanted to further contact Klein, it wasn't in this way that he would let the other party know about himself again.
Thinking of this, Roger quickly opened the door and ran towards the room that was making a terrified cry, and then knocked on the door.
A youth with disheveled Clothes and a slightly flushed face opened the door; Roger looked over her shoulder and saw a Middle-aged Man with a bare chest and a bulky figure chasing the tabby cat everywhere with a book.
"You are?"
The Lady asked in confusion; Roger claimed to be a staff member from the front desk, bowed slightly, and rushed in to catch the tabby cat.
Seeing this, the Middle-aged Man also stopped chasing.
He looked at Roger with some anger, obviously resenting that the cat had ruined his good deed.
"I'm going to complain to the Tingen City Hotel Management Association! Revoke your license!"
The other party's neck was red, and he roared loudly.
When he was about to scold a few more words, he suddenly felt his neck tighten.
The next moment, a great force dragged him backward.
The Middle-aged Man looked up and saw that it was the youth who was with him; although the latter showed a beautiful curve, she burst out with a force that was not commensurate with her figure in a short period of time.
At the same time, her red Eyes seemed to contain an uncontrollable impatience and impulse.
The man was about to speak, but he also felt a blankness and a blind eagerness surging in his mind.
Without thinking, he grabbed the woman's hand, and the two of them rolled on the floor.
Roger wrapped the tabby cat, which had calmed down a bit, in his Clothes, bowed politely, closed the door, and walked towards his room.
Who knew that on the way, he bumped into the front desk receptionist Lady, who still had some oil stains on the corners of her mouth and was rushing over in a hurry.
The other party looked at him with suspicion: "Did you ring the bell just now?"
"No, it seems that the gentleman and the Lady next door had some disputes. I went to take a look, and it's already over."
Roger pointed with his thumb at the room behind him, which was still making indescribable Sounds, and smiled.
The front desk Lady's face turned red, and she nodded in embarrassment, no longer asking, and left the Second Floor directly.
Roger finally breathed a sigh of relief; he returned to the room and locked the door.
"I didn't expect that this 'Shit Stirrer' Ability could be used like this."
Roger, who used his own Pathway's active Ability for the first time, had some new insights; he originally thought that he could only make people lose control of their emotions, but he didn't realize that "impatience" and "being carried away" were also forms of emotional Loss of control.
"Fortunately, this little cat didn't have a Mutation."
The cat had calmed down by now.
Compared to the previous ignorance, there was already some clarity in its Eyes, and it was looking around the room and at Roger in front of it.
"When I was a child, my parents gave me the nickname 'Bandit,' which is the Ruen Slang for Bandit.
"You inherited my Extraordinary Characteristic, and you also put on a farce like a Bandit, so let's call you this name, and we will be partners from now on."
Roger knew that the cat had preliminarily produced self-awareness like Susie, and immediately gently stroked its Back and extended his right hand towards it.
Bandit also suddenly stopped moving when he heard this.
It sat down, thought for a while, and actually stretched out its right paw and lightly touched Roger's right hand.
There will be another chapter later.
