Almighty Father System - Chapter 452: Truth Or Nonsense?
Leo looked at Momo, whose gray eyes have now changed into sparkling blue. The vertical pupil radiated a strong glow. The beast was also looking at Leo as well. The young man asked, "Do you recognize me?"
Momo stood up from the ground into a pouncing stance before she relaxed and nodded gently. Leo nodded and then asked, "Do you have any urge to attack me?"
The big cat shook her head, and Leo thought for a bit before he asked, "Are you hungry?"
Momo nodded and then Leo smiled as he reached out gently. Then he patted her head and said, "From now on we will get you to wear a collar with some sensors on it. This will help Beta and the rest to look after you. Is that okay?"
Momo nodded, she was communicating with them rather clearly with gestures and the scientists were all shocked by this. Leo looked at their gleaming eyes and said, "Doctor Statham, I hope you have gotten all the data for the further tests, I will be taking Momo back home because, she is a member of my family, not a test subject."
The doctors could all sense the strong disagreement in his voice, and they were doubtful if they should try to push a little but the next moment they all sensed a cold gaze locked on themselves and the young man said, "I am telling you to keep the results of this test rather confidential. Because the government will definitely freeze it all if we go ahead without any clearance from them."
Statham sighed and replied, "Sir, you don’t have to worry so much, we will not be leaking anything, we knew this before hand so you don’t have to worry this much about that. We just hope that you give us some of the data in the future."
Leo nodded to the man only after looking at the man for a prolonged period. Then he picked up Momo in his arms and said, "When we get home, you can go to the wilderness in the back and hunt for your food. This will be a training regime for you so that we could get your instincts honed."
Momo nodded and snuggled with his neck. She was now significantly bigger and heavier. Leo smiled and said, "I wonder how Lily would react to see you."
Momo meowed a little, but Leo could detect some growl hidden under there. He drove the car back to the house and then he let Momo out of the car. The big cat now walked with an aggressive but elegant walk, and the people who saw her were surprised. The guards were already standing outside the house in the gardens and they were all casting questioning gazes at Leo.
The young man said, "Don’t worry, Momo just went through a genetic experiment and the core of her gene code resurfaced. Turns out little momo’s ancestors were Siberian Sabertooths. The apex predators of the South pole. So, don’t be surprised if she growls at you when you try to approach her. She needs some reconditioning."
The people nodded, they had no idea how Leo did this but since he said this, they believed him. After a few moments, the young man walked inside the house, and he found that the family was all gathered in the backyard. One of the maids saw Momo and was shocked, she was about to wail when she saw Leo walking behind Momo. The young man knew what was going on in the mind of the maid because she was probably thinking where did the little tiger cub walked in.
However, as they were passing the living room. Leo looked at the family Sigil that was embossed on the wall on the side, and he smiled. He realized just now that Momo has become closer to the image of the Lion on the sigil. Just then he heard Lily’s footsteps running towards him. She was skipping over, and just as she turned around the corner, she spotted a white feline, and then she was shocked and froze.
Her eyes darted between Leo and Momo, the little cat from family had now changed into a big cat that needed an adult to pick her up.
(For a reference, imagine a two month old labrador. That is how big Maya had become in the span of a few hours.)
Lily looked at Leo and then back at the cat on the ground. She crouched down and looked at the animal again. She was not afraid, because Leo was just a few meters away and she trusted his strength. She beckoned the cat and Momo approached her gently before she stood in front of Lily and then the two locked eyes.
Momo tilted her head to the side like always when she looked at Lily, and the little girl was surprised before she reached out and hugged Momo and asked, "Momo, what happened to you? You are now so big and you look so strong."
Momo had no way to answer her but she meowed and tried to tell her what happened, and then Lily pulled back and gently patted Momo before she said, "You look so beautiful, I will ask Ma to get you a diadem. Then you will become Cat Princess."
Momo tilted her head in confusion, but Leo chuckled and said, "Lily, Momo is now very intelligent she can understand what you are saying even better than before."
Lily looked at Leo doubtfully and asked, "Momo, is what Baba saying true?"
The cat nodded, and Lily was taken aback but then she began to ask one question after the other. Momo also didn’t act too impatiently and answered all the questions that she could. The young man said, "Okay, you go and play with Momo for a bit, then she will have to go out and get herself some food, and we will have a bonfire when she comes back."
Lily frowned and asked, "Why would Momo get her own food?"
Leo knew he would be questioned and so he said, "Because she is a big cat now and needs to get used to the strength that she now commands, hunting for her food is the best way to do that. After we go back to the city you will be in charge of getting Momo her regular food but with more meat."
Lily nodded and then she asked, "Can the twins also have their kittens evolve like Momo?"
Leo shrugged and replied, "We would be able to tell that when the time comes. As of now, don’t tell people about anything that happened here. Okay?"
Lily nodded and then she took Momo away, to flex to everyone in the house. Leo shook his head before he headed out to bring back the wood stock to the backyard. Where he found Snow sitting on a reclining chair with the twins laying beside her on the side with a thin net covering them. This was the protection from insects and mosquitoes.
Snow looked at Leo and asked, "What happened to Momo?"
The young man smiled and told her about the experiment and Snow was surprised. She thought for a moment and then asked, "Do you have any further plans regarding this whole thing? Genetics is a rather touchy subject, no?"
Leo nodded and replied, "Once this vacation is over, we would need to dish out all the information regarding the extraterrestrials we found from the Morning Star Towers archives and have the High Priest of the Goddess Of Mercy attest to those details. The people need to know that if we still kept going along with the traditional methods and stigmatic ideas that have been imposed upon us, then the human race might face a situation that would be too ardorous for the future generations, after all, we have no idea when the attack might even happen."
Snow nodded and watched Leo prepare a bonfire and soon the Butler and the maids came over with the food ingredients that were prepared to grill for the night. Leo found Lily playing with Zeenat and Cherry. While he stood beside Elvin as the two sipped on their drinks. Elvin asked, "Leo, are you sure that these genetic experiments are safe?"
Leo nodded and said, "Don’t tell anyone but it is something that I have done on myself after I recovered."
Elvin was shocked, as he looked at his best friend. After all, this was unexpected, not that Leo could utter nonsense without changing face, that is something even the author can do, but Elvin found Leo’s candor about the experiment too shocking, it was beyond human comprehension.
After a few minutes, Elvin had realized how good of the effect the experiment had on Leo, he asked, "Can you enlist me for it as well?"
Leo was shocked, and looking at Elvin he guessed something and asked, "What is it?"
Elvin chugged down his beer and said, "Well.."
