Tang Shaoyang's eyelids flickered as he felt something walked around on his chest and stomach. He opened his eyes and looked down. The little kitten was walked on his body, from chest to stomach, back and forth.
Upon noticing Tang Shaoyang was awake, the little kitten's obsidian eyes brightened up. It stopped on his chest and sat there, with its front paw. The Infant Dark Predator pointed at its opened mouth with its paw, telling him it was hungry and wanted to eat.
Tang Shaoyang held the cat. Yes, the little kitten had grown bigger to the size of a normal cat instead of the palm-sized kitten. It kept pointing at its mouth and belly as it was afraid that Tang Shaoyand did not understand what it tried to say.
"Are you hungry?" Tang Shaoyang asked and the cat nodded his head fiercely, "Meat... I don't have meat with me though..." He had the Dark Vulture's corpses, but he did not want to waste them to become the cat's food. It was a precious material for the summoning. Giving the cat one was more than enough.
Tang Shaoyang then remembered that the Infant Dark predator fell into slumber because of the growth evolution. He had not checked the cat's new status. He then sat up and held the cat onto his lap before he cast [Basic Detection].

[Beast - Dark Predator]
Evolution: Adolescent Dark PredatorThe initial instance of this chapter being available happened at N0v3l.Bin.
Tang Shaoyang was surprised to see the level. The first time he checked its leve was around level 178. After killing and eating one Dark Vulture, it fell into slumber but its level was level 200. He was surprised that it gained more levels after the evolution.
"Meow!" The cat's voice snapped him out of his thoughts. The cat voice was still the same albeit it was deeper than before, "Alright, alright. I will ask the inn if they have something for you. Do you prefer raw meats or cooked food?" He was stupid to ask the cat who could not speak with him.
"Why would he look for me?" Tang Shaoyang made a weird face. He never met this Mayor, he did not even know the name of the Mayor.
"Isn't it too obvious?" Ashley looked at the Dark Tremor Beastmen and before she squinted her eyes at the cat on his shoulder. She believed that the Mayor was coming for the Dark Predator. As a native of this world, she was well aware of how popular the Dark Predator was as a pet. The Mayor must come to buy the Dark Predator and maybe The Dark Tremor with Mind Control Class.
"I am not selling any of them." Tang Shaoyang caught the Mayor's intention immediately after Ashley said that. There was no way he would sell them as they were important pieces for his mission in the Gigante Forest.
"At least give him some face and meet him. We are in his town, after all," Ashley said. That was the best they could do if the man was not willing to sell the beastmen or even the Dark Predator.
"Alright." Tang Shaoyang nodded and looked toward Aki, "Do you have something you want to eat? Or the same raw meat as this guy?" He was talking about the black cat on his shoulder.
"We eat the meat," Aki nodded.
After that, they came out of the room together. The attendant was still waiting outside the room and bowed toward them when they came out, "Do you have any meat? I don't mind raw but I want a big portion for them."
This time, it was a different male attendant who served them. The male attendant paused as he looked at Aki, Nol, and the cat, "We have Horned-Steel Hog if you want..."
"Please bring a whole of this Horned-Steel Hog... No, two. I want two Horned-Steel Hogs," He remembered the cat's big appetite and decided to get two of them, "Now you can bring us to meet the Mayor." Ashley then interrupted the shocked male attendant.
"Yes. Yes. Yes." The male attendant nodded his head repeated and guided them to the thirteenth floor. The thirteenth floor was split into four rooms and apparently, this floor was specialized for a big shot to hold meetings or even had a meal.
Despite how remote the town was, this Biaska Inn was actually a nice place to stay. Tang Shaoyang followed the attendant to the room with the No.1 sign on the door. The male attendant knocked on the door thrice then he waited for the response.
"Come in!" A rough yet loud voice rang from inside the room. The male attendant opened the door and entered the room. Tang Shaoyang followed with the others as well. In the middle of the room, there was a long table. At the end of a table, a man with a thick beard sat at the main seat.
The man had a burly figure and a wide shoulder. His square-shaped face was quite unique and there was a scar on his lower jar. It was a claw-mark wound and quite big, it seemed he suffered the wound from a beast with a big claw. The brownish-colored eyes were scanning Tang Shaoyang before it stopped at the cat on his shoulder.
"Mayor Tomas," The male attendant bowed to the man. The Mayor of Biaska Town was Tomas Con. He had become Mayor for seventeen years, one of the strongest hunters in the town, "I have brought the guests."
"Alright, you can leave now!" Mayor Tomas waved his hand at the male attendant without even sparing a glance.
