Cathulhu Online, MUNYA!-Chapter 23 Cat Dad is Nut Cracker

Chapter 23 – Cat Dad is Nut Cracker

Getting additional cash coincided with Xiaomao’s goal. After all, he needed to invest more into the game to boost his character’s status points.

Noticing Xiaomao’s enthusiasm, Wei Zhi was satisfied. She explained, “It’s a half marathon race with a lot of sponsors. You need to run 21 kilometers and finish first to earn the prize money. Are you up for the challenge?”

“Challenge accepted! When, munya?”

Xiaomao gave Wei Zhi a thumbs up as he thought of it as easy money.

Wei Zhi giggled, “This Sunday, 8.30 AM. Our school’s bus will take our members to the event site, so we have to be here before 7.”

“Isn’t it like… in two days, munya?!”

Currently, it was Friday. Xiaomao was taken aback that Wei Zhi wanted him to race without preparation.

“Hahaha! That’s right. Are you up for it? Half-marathon is easy!”

“Meh, fine! I’ll do it! Is the winning prize really 20k RMB, munya?!”

“Of course. I’ll register your name for it. By the way, what’s your class and your name again?”

“1-E, Miao Xiaomao!”

Wei Zhi extended her hand for a handshake, “2-B, Wei Zhi.”

Both shook hands. Then, Wei Zhi discovered that Xiaomao’s calloused hand was slightly rough, which was different from other baby-face guys who had never done any chore or housework.

“You really worked hard.”

“Can you let go of my hand, munya?”.

“… Sorry.”

Wei Zhi let go of Xiaomao’s hand. As soon as the latter was freed, he decided to flee from here before something bad could happen.

“I have to go to class. I’ll leave that registration task to you. See, ya, munya!”

Just like that, Xiaomao dashed out of the girl’s locker room and sprinted toward his class.

Wei Zhi brightly smiled and looked at her hand. The warmth of Xiaomao’s hand still lingered on hers.

“… At least, he’s not a horn dog like Niu Fu.”

…

Xiaomao managed to return to his classroom. As soon as he entered, everyone in class looked at him as if they were seeing an alien.

The homeroom teacher only glanced at Xiaomao, “Working out in the morning is good and all, but you mustn’t forget to manage your time. Get to your seat, Mr. Gump.”

Everyone in the room laughed as they also saw Xiaomao’s deeds. Even Liu Bei’s henchmen and the brown big-breasted girl chuckled.

Xiaomao lowered his head in embarrassment. He got to his head.

The boring morning classes went on.

However, in the afternoon, Xiaomao’s eyelids got heavier, and he succumbed to the drowsiness.

Xiaomao set up a formation of books as a wall and rested his head on the desk, taking a short nap.

But he fell into a deep sleep.

6.00 PM

The loud noise of the school bell woke Xiaomao from his beauty sleep. He swallowed his drool and looked up.

Fortunately, no teacher or student disturbed him. Everybody respected the 999-point scorer, and they didn’t have the time to care about how he fared in school.

The teacher ended class while half of the students packed their bags and prepared to go home. As for the rest, they gathered in groups to chat while the rest prepared for afterschool activities.

Xiaomao stood up and planned to visit the cafeteria for dinner before the night-shift part-time job.

But as Xiaomao entered the cafeteria, he ran into Wei Zhi, who came here with her club members.

The track and field club’s members recognized Xiaomao. One of the male members greeted him.

“Mr. Forest Gump! Will you join the track and field club?”

The corner of Xiaomao’s mouth twitched, “Stop calling me Forest Gump, munya!”

“Okay, then. Mr. Munya, will you join the track and field club?”

“And stop calling me MUNYA, munya!” 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

“Hahahaha!”

The track club girls laughed while men found Xiaomao weird. Ending the sentences with MUNYA irked a few guys.

As Xiaomao was weird, the men stopped talking to him and minded their businesses. As for the girls, they pestered him.

And one of them suddenly dropped a bomb.

“I heard you will participate the in half-marathon as our club representative, is that true?!”

As soon as she said that, the male members turned around and stared at their captain in disbelief.

One of them walked out of the crowd and protested, “Captain! This half-marathon event is a prestige event. It will be held in our province, and all schools will send their best marathon runners to compete! Why are we sending an outsider when the spots are limited! Please reconsider, captain!”

The men glanced back and forth between Xiaomao and the protester.

The protester was a 2nd-year student from the same class as Wei Zhi. However, he was a short sprinter, who couldn’t participate in any marathon event as short-runner and marathoner’s constitutions and training were different.

Niu Fu, the top sprinter of the club, glared at Xiaomao, “A rookie like him will tarnish our club’s name if he joins the event. Imagine how you run when you start out. I’m sure he will collapse and get humiliated before the second half of the race! I saw him run. He doesn’t know how to pace, and he was burnt out in 20 minutes! He can’t possibly outlast the 21km race!”

The runner girls frowned and glared at Niu Fu. 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

“Hey, Niu Fu. I know that you’re chasing after the captain’s skirt, but you have no right to criticize our captain’s decision!” One of the girls protected Xiaomao. She clung to his arm, trying to look good in front of him.

The other girl also shouted at Niu Fu’s face, “Listen here. You’re not even a marathoner. What do you know about the race? It’s none of your business. Now, get your ass back to your perverted butt-gawking virgin club, and don’t badmouth Mr. Kitty!”

Niu Fu scoffed, “You think I don’t know? I was once a marathoner when I was in middle school before I become a sprinter! I always joined every half-marathon race ever since I was 10! What do I know? Even though I’m not suited for the long-distance race now, I can still get a better time than this half-ass pushover!”

While the track club members bickered, Xiaomao frowned and sighed.

‘What the hell do they want? Why couldn’t they leave me alone?’

Xiaomao looked at Wei Zhi, asking for her help with his innocent pupils.

Wei Zhi noticed Xiaomao’s glance. The corners of her mouth rose into a faint smile as she found him dorky and funny.

She coughed, “Quiet! This is the cafeteria. All club matters stay on the field and our club room!”

The girls nodded. Niu Fu clicked his tongue while the men chuckled and laughed at their friend’s courage. As for Xiaomao, he let out a sigh of relief and excused himself to get his food.

He went to the counter and paid for his meal with a school meal ticket. Meanwhile, the track club members picked their seats.

Unfortunately, Niu Fu hadn’t given up yet. He had been glaring at Xiaomao.

As Xiaomao picked up his food tray and walked toward an empty seat, Niu Fu suddenly stood up and stomped toward Xiaomao.

He sneered and lowered his hand. As soon as Niu Fu got close to Xiaomao, he raised his hand, trying to swat Xiaomao’s tray to the ceiling and ruin his food!

“???”

Xiaomao raised his eyebrows and stared at Niu Fu’s face when the latter started approaching him. His spider-sense was tingling.

Before Niu Fu’s hand reached his tray, Xiaomao raised the container over his head as he anticipated the classic bully’s prank. At the same time, he raised his left leg to lightly push the former away in reflex.

However, Niu Fu was too close to Xiaomao. Instead of kicking Niu Fu’s chest or belly as planned, the hard shin landed on the former’s crotch area.

A front kick turned into a crotch kick.

Because of the full-strength front kick, Xiaomao’s leg pushed Niu Fu’s body upward, and his feet floated above the ground by a few millimeters.

The squishy feedback impact reminded Xiaomao of something nasty yesterday. Xiaomao sensed that something soft had just burst.

When Niu Fu’s legs touched the ground again, his face reddened while his expression was distorted in pain.

He collapsed on the cafeteria floor and fainted.

Xiaomao tilted his head and looked at the soon-to-be eunuch. He thought to himself.

‘What the hell is this fool doing?’
