[Episode 1496] [Episode 1496]‘I really wondered abought that last book though.’
“Excuse me.”
Menchi backed into the alley wall looking up at a strangely dressed woman carrying a large key-like metal staff.
“You have seriously disrupted my plans for the future by arranging for the disposal of one of the Queen’s advisors. As such you will have to take his place.”
‘Not another mental case! It was just another cat and this isn’t Puss N’ Boots.’
She tapped him on the head before he could move with her strangely shaped staff.
“Ouch! What did you do that for?”
“Congratulations. You are now a Lunar Cat and an advisor to the throne.”
“Hey, how come I can talk and is ‘emergency food supply’ anywhere in my job description?”
Menchi shivered wondering if perhaps he really had managed to escape Excel this time, rather then the usual ‘almost escape’ only to be dragged back again.
“One, you are now a Lunar cat which includes the ability to talk while in feline form and the ability to change into human form at will. Two, not unless you screw up in a way I have not foreseen.”
“You’re not mad that I knocked out that other cat and switched places with him?”
“His name was Artemis and no I am not. His job performance was beginning to suffer because of his inappropriate relations with a number of stray cats. I trust you will not have the same problem?”
Blood-red eye’s stared into his own.
“Nope, not me. As long as I’m not on the menu I’ll do anything!”
Menchi felt the faint stirrings of hope. Sure it looked like he was going to be living and working with another group of loonies, but this group apparently didn’t see him as an entrée.
“Good. You will be expected to give advice concerning battle plans and similar situations but I’ll brief you in advance on what to say. Your real job is to keep one particular girl’s hormonal level in check.”
A book thumped to the ground in front of him.
“Read this and memorize the techniques. You’ll need them. I have to go explain to Venus that her ‘advisor’ has been replaced.”
Menchi blanched upon reading the title. He really wasn’t into cannibalism, but as long as it kept him out of the stew pot…
Pluto’s presence faded from the alley as she heard Menchi say “Hey, this isn’t abought cats at all, but what’s a Vegan?”.
