I am the Pope in the Western Fantasy World

Chapter 147 Capturing the Shadow

It turned out that it was not a human or a ghost, but a black cat!

In the moonlight, all its hair was black with a faint luster. It held the fish in its mouth and ate it while running. Not only was it running very fast, but it also ate the fish until only its tail was left.

"What kind of cat is this? It can even bite through such thick fish scales?" Phil Gray jumped down from the warehouse and saw the cat had already crawled into the bushes.

Ernest also chased into the bushes, and Eli went around from behind to surround it, but the black cat escaped from under their feet like a loach.

"Wall of Destiny!" Phil Gray muttered to himself and built a wall in front of him, but the black cat jumped lightly and jumped over the top of the wall.

"Huh? This isn't an ordinary cat, right?" Eli jumped up and down following the black cat, but he didn't catch even a single hair.

He made vines and thorns grow in front of the kitten, trying to block its steps, but the black cat meowed and stepped on them as if they were flat ground.

It made a sound and it seemed that even the fish tail was swallowed into its stomach.

Phil Gray hesitated for a moment and threw the Fate Blade, but the little cat rolled and moved in the air, and none of the blades hit it.

Although he did not throw out dense flying blades like he did when attacking Viscount Ward, this cat was really powerful.

The three gods' favored ones watched helplessly as the black cat disappeared.

"Oh my God, who could have imagined that the three of us, the most reputable followers, couldn't do anything to a cat?" Eli found it a little funny. He hadn't felt this frustrated for a long time.

Phil Gray frowned, not knowing how to explain to Ron later.

They are people favored by God, but they can't even catch a cat.

The three of them searched the spot again, and indeed they could not find any trace of the black cat.

Ron walked out of the warehouse anxiously, "The fish in the secret room is gone again! How are you guys? Did you catch the fish thief?"

Phil Gray coughed lightly, "We know the true identity of the fish thief, but we haven't caught him."

"What? What on earth is stealing my fire-blood fish?" Ron was a little angry.

"Well, it's a black cat." Phil Gray said, "But it's definitely not an ordinary cat. None of us three God-loved ones can catch it."

Ron first cried out in surprise: "Cat?" Then he asked in distress, "What should I do? This cat keeps eating my fire blood fish. Should I stop doing this business?"

The profit from fire-blood fish is very high, and he is reluctant to give up this business.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ron, there's nothing we can do. We have to travel to the East Continent tomorrow." Phil Gray said very apologetically. He thought that the fish thief would be easy to deal with, but he never expected this to be the case.

"Okay." Ron sighed, "Thank you anyway."

"Okay." Phil Gray nodded. At this moment, he heard Eli's surprised voice, "Boss! Your hat is moving!"

"What?" Phil Gray was still wearing the cotton cloak handed to them by their boss, and he didn't think there was anything strange about the hat.

He reached his hand to the hat behind him and suddenly touched something soft, which made a humming sound!

Could it be a cat? Phil Gray touched it again and confirmed that it was the feel of a cat, but how did this black cat get into his hat?

And he clearly couldn't feel any weight!

"The cat's in my hat!" whispered Phil Gray.

He gently pulled the cloak forward, covered the hood with his hands, took off the cloak, and saw the little black cat sleeping soundly, blending into the black cloak!

If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to find it at all!

"Oh my God!" Ron also came over and asked angrily, "Is this the guy?"

The black cat was awakened, and it jumped up very quickly and landed on Phil Gray's shoulder.

Then he licked his paw with his tongue, just like a normal kitten.

"Yes, uh, Mr. Ron, what are you going to do with it?" Phil Gray felt the warm body temperature of the cat on his shoulder, and suddenly felt soft in his heart.

Ron was in a dilemma. His family had been living in Life Parish and were naturally influenced by the Life Church. It was impossible for them to kill the kitten directly, but it did eat his precious fish!

He hated the fish thief so much before, but now that he saw the thief was a cat, he felt like he couldn't even get his anger out. After all, even if he killed the cat, the lost fish would not be recovered!

He stretched out his hand and tried to catch the cat, but the cat dodged flexibly. After a chase, Ron was out of breath, and the black cat jumped onto Phil Gray's other shoulder and made an innocent "meow~"

"Oh, we can't catch it at all. If it doesn't show up on its own, we can't even see its shadow." Eli shook his head and stretched out a finger to tease the cat, but it dodged him and he got a contemptuous look from the cat. He still didn't touch a single hair.

"What should I do?" Ron glared at the cat. "You bastard! Don't think I can do nothing to you! If you eat my fish again, I will die with you!"

"Hahaha, that's not necessary, Mr. Ron, let's think of another way." Eli looked at Phil Gray, "Boss, this cat seems to like you very much."

Phil Gray stretched out his hand, and the black cat actually rubbed against him, making purring sounds, and seemed to be enjoying it very much.

There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, and then he held the cat on his shoulder in his arms.

The cat lay obediently in his arms without any struggle.

"Ah?" Ron was also a little puzzled. He said with a bitter face, "Why don't you take this cat to the East Continent? This way it won't be able to eat my fish!"

Phil Gray was stunned. Is this possible?

But will the cat follow it?

In his heart, he really liked this black cat, and it was obvious that this cat was not an ordinary cat.

"Cat, are you willing to leave with me? To the East Continent." Phil Gray said to the cat. Who knows, maybe it can understand human language?

The black cat opened its eyes, its emerald green eyes shone like gems in the dark night. It stared into Phil Gray's eyes and let out a "meow".

"Does it agree?" Eli raised his eyebrows. This cat looked very smart.

"It should be." Phil Gray smiled and looked at Ron. "Mr. Ron, just as you said, I plan to adopt it and take it to the East Continent. But it did cause you losses. Calculate how many gold coins you lost and I will compensate you."

"No need. If we can take it away and it stops eating my fish, I can quickly earn back the lost gold coins. I should thank you!" Ron said hurriedly.

"Okay, we'll try our best to take it away." Phil Gray hugged the cat tightly. The cat turned over uncomfortably, but did not run away. He breathed a sigh of relief.
