The Adorably Deadly "Big Cat"

"... Game?"

Upon hearing Anna's answer, the expressions on the others' faces turned serious.

"That's right. Before you arrived, several other groups of guests came to my castle, and they provided me with many wonderful Game... You must have experienced that when you came here, right?"

As she spoke, Anna glanced at the Girl over there.

"Although it's only a half-finished product due to time constraints, isn't the Game pretty good?"

"..."

The Girl chewing Bubble Gum didn't reply, but her expression clearly turned cold.

"What happened to the previous guests?"

Steel Bones spoke in a deep voice.

"And what exactly is that Doll in the woods outside...?"

"Well, those were just Failed Product that were ruined. Anna was actually quite happy that guests had finally arrived at the manor."

Holding the Rabbit Doll in one hand, Anna tilted her head slightly and uttered the most cold-blooded words in the most innocent tone.

"But those guests don't last long at all; they break after just a short while. You guys seem to be stronger, so you should be able to keep Anna entertained for a while longer, right?"

"So, you're saying you're treating us like toys?"

Bai Zhi tapped the table lightly with his knuckles and raised an eyebrow slightly.

"They are toys, but the His Highness the Prince is not a toy."

Anna turned to look at Bai Zhi, a sweet smile spreading across her face.

"Your His Highness the Prince, please rest assured, I will provide you with the greatest convenience during Anna's Game."

"... No need."

Noticing the change in the gazes directed at him by those around him, Bai Zhi's lips twitched slightly.

"Instead of all that, why don't you first announce the rules of the Game? For example, what Type of Game is it, and what will happen if Game Over and lose?"

"If you win the Game, you can continue playing with me. If Game Over, then you'll have to stay with the other Failed Product. Because flawed items aren't allowed in Anna's castle..."

Clutching the Rabbit Doll in her arms, Anna jumped off the chair to the ground, but because she was so petite, even this simple movement almost made her fall.

Upon witnessing this scene, on the other side of the table where Anna was facing away, the wicked client [Colorful Black] couldn't help but want to stand up.

But before he could even make a move, March-shi quickly reached out and pressed down on his shoulder. Facing the bewildered gaze of the Colorful Black figure, March-shi still wore her habitual smile and shook her head slightly at him.

"Phew... that was close, I almost fell..."

Anna patted her chest, her face still showing signs of lingering fear.

Holding the Rabbit, she turned around again and smiled as she addressed the crowd.

"By the way, it's 10:00 AM now. You have two hours to find your rooms inside the castle. Lunch is at 12:00 PM. Anna's Game will start at 2:00 PM and continue until 5:00 PM. Today's Game theme is [Hide and Seek]."

"Hide and Seek... which Big Cat are you talking about?"

Pointing towards the door, a handsome Young Man in a suit spoke from the March-shi's group.

Following his directions, everyone looked towards the door. Outside the door, a giant Plush Cat, several meters tall, had somehow gotten there and was now lying down, its eerie green eyes gleaming with a fierce light, staring at them.

"That's right, how about it, doesn't it look handsome? https://www. hetushu. com. com"

With a satisfied smile on her face, Anna walked to the door and climbed onto the back of the giant Plush Cat with considerable effort. While stroking the Plush Cat's head, she turned to them and spoke very earnestly.

"Kitties are very cute, please don't bully them."

"Yes, she's absolutely adorable."

Bai Zhi's gaze swept over the faint black Golden Light emanating from the Plush Cat, and he nodded in agreement.

"Prince Your Highness, would you like to leave with me?"

Anna, sitting on the giant Plush Cat, looked on with anticipation as she reached out her hand towards Bai Zhi, seemingly quite happy.

"If you're willing to leave with Anna now, the Your Highness of Yu-Gi-Oh! doesn't have to participate this afternoon~"

"Um... we're Teammate."

Looking back at Steel Bones and Dead Zero beside him, Bai Zhi shook his head resolutely after a rather complicated internal struggle.

"For the sake of the beautiful Lady Anna, I cannot abandon my Teammate."

"Really? That's such a shame."

Anna withdrew her hand, a look of regret on her face.

"Prince Your Highness, please be careful not to get found by that adorable cat during the afternoon's Game, or something terrible might happen..."

After saying this, Anna reached out and patted the huge Plush Cat beneath her. Then, the Plush Cat, which had been lying on the floor, slowly stood up.

After giving a slight shake, it carried Anna on its back and gracefully left the room.

After the person involved left, in an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Bai Zhi.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?"

Facing the various emotions in everyone's gazes, Bai Zhi rolled his eyes, somewhat speechless.

"You hesitated again just now."

Turning her head to look at Bai Zhi, the Young Girl's gaze remained aloof, but this time, a hint of other emotions lingered within it.

"What else could you do? After all, who could resist an invitation from a Blonde Loli who sits on an adorable Big Cat Cat, calls you 'Your Highness Prince,' and looks at you expectantly?"

Sighing, Bai Zhi looked at his exasperated friend with disappointment.

"Most people only see the surface and don't notice the essence. You only saw me hesitate for a moment before the invitation, but you didn't see me refuse it without hesitation. Didn't you notice such a noble Quality of mine? So, how pathetic is that..."

"Please, hesitating for a moment and not hesitating at all are two opposite concepts, okay?"

Rolling his eyes, the Girl sitting opposite Bai Zhi casually tossed him a piece of chewing gum.

"Let me introduce myself, my ID is: Fireworks of Romance."

"Uh, Black&White... I don't like sweets."

Seemingly surprised that the other party would take the initiative to strike up a conversation with him, Bai Zhi was slightly taken aback.

"Don't worry, it's sugar-free gum."

With a slight pursed lip, Fireworks of Romance also popped a piece of chewing gum into her mouth.

"... Let's exchange information. To be honest, the situation is a bit bad right now... You'd never guess what I've discovered."
