...
"Very good."
After reading the latest sign-in rewards, Young Master Leon immediately pulled out the Black Panther Goddess Bastet's Collar from his system space.
It was a black circular ring made of a material that felt like both real leather and silk, shaped much like a choker used for SM, except this one was just a collar without a chain.
And it also had white lace edges on both the top and bottom sides.
At first glance, it didn't look like a collar.
Instead, it looked more like...
"Who cares?"
"It's not for me to wear."
Young Master Leon shook his head with a smile, then grabbed the Black Panther Goddess Bastet's Collar and instantly projected his consciousness back into her mental domain.
【Tip: You have entered the Black Panther Goddess Bastet's mental domain.】
【Tip: As this entry is not in Shadow stealth mode, your presence has been detected by the Black Panther Goddess Bastet.】
His perspective shifted.
Young Master Leon's vision was once again covered by thick black-purple mist, with visibility less than 2.5 meters. Just as he was about to activate his Observation Haki to see what was going on around him...
"Roar!!!"
An angry roar, almost directly in his face, made Young Master Leon's pupils contract. A gigantic Black Shadow, comparable in size to a large cargo truck, instantly appeared in front of him.
By the time he reacted, he had already been violently sent flying.
This familiar feeling made Young Master Leon almost think he was going to transmigrate again.
Fortunately, the opponent's bark was worse than her bite, and Young Master Leon was not broken through.
He stopped himself in mid-air, a question arising in his mind:
'System, has my speed slowed down?'
Otherwise, no matter how fast the opponent was, Young Master Leon wouldn't have been unable to react at all.
If she were truly that powerful, the Black Panther Goddess Bastet's true strength would be sky-high, and what would be the point of him fighting? He might as well go back to driving.
【...】
The system seemed to stutter for a moment before replying to Young Master Leon: 【Tip: You are currently in the Black Panther Goddess Bastet's mental domain, and your five senses are greatly weakened.】
【Tip: In a nighttime environment, the Black Panther Goddess Bastet's full attributes increase to 200% of her normal state, and her agility is greatly enhanced, stepping one foot into a higher divine realm.】
'So, we have to deal with her in an away game?'
'It's like fighting a game BOSS.'
Young Master Leon grumbled inwardly.
His Observation Haki was already deployed, but the visibility of his mind's eye was still less than ten meters. For two opposing sides whose speeds were inversely proportional, this distance only gave Young Master Leon time to react.
After all,
The Black Panther Goddess Bastet appeared to be a deity known for her agility and speed.
"Disrespectful one!"
The bestial form of Bastet shouted in a mature female voice, then stepped through the air, swinging her sharp claws and rapidly approaching Young Master Leon.
Rip!
Young Master Leon dodged backward, but was still caught by Bastet, who now had overwhelming speed. His face was instantly scratched as if by a cat.
This time,
Young Master Leon was truly broken through.
It seemed Bastet's claws were harder than her head.
"Hiss—"
"Spicy enough, I like it."
Young Master Leon declared his lifelong ambition, licking away the bloodstains on his face, and the wound instantly healed as if new.
Fight again!
It was just that Young Master Leon was accustomed to overwhelming others with stats in combat, and with the situation suddenly reversed, he truly didn't know how to fight.
With his speed being overwhelmed, he was constantly in a state of passive defense. Occasionally, he would hit Bastet, and while he could break through her defense, she wasn't an ordinary squishy target and couldn't be instantly killed.
Once she ran more than ten meters away, Young Master Leon had nowhere to chase, and the key was that he couldn't catch up.
Then, shortly after, Bastet automatically recovered to full health.
Regarding this agile BOSS with a built-in fountain, Young Master Leon expressed: I can't fight her at all!
Now he finally understood what his opponents felt when facing him before.
And so,
A tank with unparalleled defense and infinite health met an assassin with overwhelming speed and super-fast regeneration, and the battle spiraled out of control.
It would probably go on forever without a result.
"Enough!"
"If a tiger doesn't show its might, you'll think I'm a fat cat!"
Young Master Leon, his face covered in scratches, suddenly turned fierce. With his Conqueror's Haki fully unleashed, he intimidated Bastet. At that very moment, he directly activated his Fool's 100% ultimate power boost, which he was reluctant to use.
The scratches on his face healed.
His intelligence instantly reset to Zero.
His body instinctively acted according to the last command issued by his brain's nerves.
Young Master Leon's speed instantly surged, and he flashed in front of Bastet.
He used his greatest strength to stroke the soft flesh under her chin, then extended a highly mocking middle finger towards her, and finally, with an evil smile, his eyes lost their high-light, and he directly stopped thinking.
"You!"
Bang!!!!!!
【Tip: You have been kicked out of her mental domain by the enraged Black Panther Goddess Bastet.】
"Hiss—"
"Now it's complete, a perfect foot imprint on each side, a compulsive disorder patient's delight."
In the real World, Young Master Leon looked in the mirror. He deliberately hadn't healed the previous foot imprint on his face, and now it was perfectly symmetrical on both sides.
Click! Click!
After taking a set of photos with his phone to savor the moment, the red foot imprints on Young Master Leon's face instantly disappeared, restoring his usual handsomeness.
Until his strength underwent another qualitative leap, Young Master Leon had no intention of entering Bastet's... mental domain again.
He had no hobby of being abused.
If the Death Goddess Hela's pet giant wolf Fenris was a divine beast with maxed-out offensive capabilities, then the Black Panther Goddess Bastet was probably a divine beast with maxed-out agility.
Her speed, even after Young Master Leon got used to it, wasn't to the point of being unable to react; it was simply a bit fast. The key was her phantom-like agile movement technique.
Combined, the two achieved a combat effect where 1+1 was greater than 2, even greater than 3.
Young Master Leon could barely touch Bastet's backside, which was the most infuriating part.
What's wrong with touching her? She wouldn't lose a piece of flesh.
Just wait.
Thirty days east of the river, thirty days west of the river. Young Master Leon would get his revenge sooner or later.
However Bastet scratched him today, he would definitely return it twofold another day.
At this moment,
Jarvis called.
"Young Master Leon..."
"Oh~"
"Has Tony finally come to his senses?"
"Good, I'm a bit fired up right now. This is perfect timing."
He hung up the phone.
Young Master Leon walked over to Arcee Tifa, who was still in mental sleep mode, recharging her cooldown. He long-pressed the Humanoid Computer Angel Heart-style activation button.
Young Master Leon then manually drove the motorcycle mode Arcee towards Stark Tower.
Not driving a new car is like wearing fine clothes at night.
Young Master Leon wanted to drive, and loved to drive.
