To beco a god, one needed to have a strong will, developed even in larger kingdoms. Still, it was not common, as each god was unique in the universe. There could be thousands, but this amount was tiny compared to the total number of living beings.
It took Kayden ten long years to get his first glimpse of the technique behind the blue blood. At this ti, he could also convert blood into mana, but it was still a slow process that required a lot of effort.
On any given day, while cultivating normally, a different pressure arose around him. It was similar to that of the archangel Michael. Kayden’s spiritual sense identified a black cat very similar to Felix, but this one had golden paws.
"Hello, mortal. I am after Felix. He is a lost mber of my race. I wonder when he will awaken from his sacred hibernation?" Kayden finally confird her suspicions about Felix’s race.
"One second," Kayden asked for a mont and reached down to pull Felix by the neck. After shaking him a bit and Felix almost biting Kayden’s arm off, complaining for a few seconds, Kayden introduced the cat god to him.
"Hello, ancestor, I’m Felix," the cat demonstrated a politeness that Kayden didn’t even recognize as his friend’s.
"Felix, I’m ??????" Neither Kayden nor Felix could understand it, as it was a divine na. "Sorry about that. Felix, I would like to introduce you to the techniques originating from our race." Kayden felt a bad premonition and...
"No, but I appreciate the offer," Kayden had his premonition complete. The cat god couldn’t understand what was happening, as this was a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity.
"Do you happen to know who exactly you are?" The goddess was not used to beings of her race being lazy.
"No, my goddess. I was born on an isolated planet in an isolated system," Felix and Kayden ca from a place so small that probably no one would even recognize the na.
"You are one of the void cats, one of the most special breeds in our universe," the goddess waited for any reaction from the two, but not even a raise of an eyebrow appeared.
"One of the five strongest races in existence, holding 10 places on the council of the gods, the most feared and untouchable race to this day," the feline threw out several beautiful words and titles, but even so, it didn’t catch anyone’s attention from both.
"I still prefer to continue with my peaceful life, I don’t like to try too hard," The goddess was at a loss to understand, as cats of her breed were normally very hardworking. Laziness practically did not exist in their midst, all because of the occasional hibernation they took, which helped them to always stay energized and ready to work on their goals. But Felix was the total opposite.
"Why are you so lazy?" the goddess was unable to express any other words than that and received a philosophical phrase from Felix.
"Life is for enjoying, that’s all," the cat was already getting annoyed at being woken from its sleep. Kayden would have jumped at that opportunity quickly, but he couldn’t make Felix’s choices.
"Who do you think you are to give a life lesson? I ..... " the goddess released her hold and simply disappeared. She didn’t even get to finish her speech and found herself pressed into a random spot in the tower.
"You broke the rules, your penalty is 100 years of imprisonnt," a neutral voice rang in the goddess’s ears. She shuddered and felt like a child, being easily subdued and punished without even seeing her punisher’s face.
anwhile, Kayden and Felix just continued with their lives as normal. The event only took a few minutes from his thoughts. Maybe they had made a great enemy, but at the mont that wasn’t important.
Ti passed quickly, and about three years later, the two received another visit. This ti, it was a colossal being over ten kiloters tall, a floating whale of an intense blue color, clearly a god.
"Hello Neighbor!" his voice reverberated throughout the space and almost created cracks in reality. Kayden and Felix felt pressed to the ground, but a transparent bubble appeared before they suffered any damage. The sa couldn’t be said for Kayden’s house, which simply turned to dust and disappeared in the wind. The whale shrank in size within seconds, becoming just 1 ter long, practically a stuffed animal.
"Sorry about that, I thought you were gods too," the whale rebuilt Kayden’s house identically to the previous one in a matter of the blink of an eye. His curiosity was aroused, as he practically never interacted with mortals.
"I’m called God???????, but you can just call Orca," Kayden and Felix were still a little stunned by the speed of the situation, but as soon as they recovered, they greeted the whale.
"I’m Kayden Heart and this is Felix Heart." After Felix refused a god to stay with Kayden, the boy agreed to share his na with the beast.
"Cool nas! Let’s have a feast to get to know each other better." The whale simply took thousands and thousands of tons of various food and spread it across Kayden’s kingdom. The way the god ate was completely strange to both of them. He kept thousands of foods in his personal space and threw them directly anywhere, choosing what he wanted with his spiritual sense.
"You can eat. I have a lot more in my stock," the whale laughed and started throwing questions at the two without letting them speak. They were simple questions about how they lived and other basic matters.
The small al was a happy one for Felix, as the cat could not rember when he had had so much food available to him without any restrictions. Many were of high realms, but he just swallowed them without any side effects. Kayden hated this eting the most; he had to answer boring questions and waste his ti when he could have been training or doing sothing else. He decided he would just pretend to be in a mont of revelation after that conversation.
The conversation was excruciatingly long, lasting almost an entire day. The cat didn’t stop eating even for a second. Kayden didn’t understand how he could fit so much food inside him and the whale; they were practically two living black holes.
"Felix, any visitors who co now, just tell them I’m in a mont of discovery. If they wait, let them wait a year or two and then wake up." The cat just nodded and Kayden went back to farming.
He had a few more visitors over the next few years, but Felix was the only one who welcod them and talked to them. Kayden was always in a mont of discovery and could not be hindered.
Ti began to pass, and in the blink of an eye, almost half a century had passed. Kayden finally reached a point where he could freely change the blue liquid into mana, but it was still very weak. He had speed, but not complete knowledge of the technique. Without any discouragent, he continued drinking the liquid and learning about the technique. With each passing day, he felt closer to his goal, although his progress was very slow, sothing that would discourage any living being.
About half a century later, Kayden had fully mastered the handling of blue blood and could transform the entire pool into mana to be used at his will in seconds without much effort.
"Kayden," Felix woke the boy up for the first ti in a long ti. Kayden almost had a problem seeing sunlight, as he had left all the food with Felix and hadn’t opened his eyes in ages. The cat was just as Kayden rembered, but the difference was that he had reached the peak of the fourth realm during that period. Other than that, there were no visible changes in the feline.
"I want to go out with the whale god to see the universe. We spent a lot of ti in here and it is visible in your eyes that there is still a long way to go before you reach your goal." Kayden barely recognized the cat in his lines. He seed independent and strong, but mainly he didn’t have that usual childish air, probably because he was serious this ti and it seed like he took a long ti to make this decision.
This was because they might never et again if they separated. The universe was very large, to the point that even peak gods had difficulty finding specific people easily.
"It’s been great years by your side, Felix. If it’s our destiny, we will et again," Kayden said with a sincere smile on his face. The cat was much calr with his friend’s reaction.
"I hope you don’t die. You still have to bring a lot of food," the two exchanged a few more words and Felix left. Kayden wasn’t sad about the situation. At one ti or another, they would separate, it was just a matter of ti. Two paths couldn’t always go together, and in the end, he was happy that Felix was going to do sothing of his own free will.
