Tenebrous Wolf

Ultimately, the two couldn’t settle on a proper name for the cat, so they decided to postpone the naming ritual. Klaus couldn’t help but feel a little worried as there was a real chance they’d never decide on a name later, and Yuki might actually end up naming the cat "Later" or something equally atrocious!

It seemed the cat was lucky to have fallen into his hands. Well, perhaps not so lucky, considering there was already a larger and fiercer cat dwelling within the confines of his dorm room.

What kind of incident would unfold when two cats faced off against each other? That thought made Klaus feel sluggish.

Sighing, he continued to walk along the road under the evening sky while carrying the cat in his arms. Floating in that evening sky was the still blimp, displaying a different piece of news. It might seem old-fashioned, but the blimp was an ecological craft powered by solar energy, using a heater to warm carbon dioxide for lift and spinning a large motor for thrust, therefore, eliminating the need for fuel.

Unlike advanced aero vehicles that used high-density plasma thrusters or quantum propulsion, blimps remained a relic of the past, albeit one that had found its niche in an era increasingly obsessed with sustainability. Klaus found himself staring at the glowing screen, momentarily distracted by the scrolling headlines.

While doing so, the cat within his arms shifted and let out a small but insistent meow.

"Yeah, yeah, I get it. You’re more interested in food than whatever mystery is unfolding up there," Klaus muttered, adjusting his grip. The cat curled slightly against his chest, clearly settling in for the ride.

With a sigh, he then muttered under his breath:

"I really hate that blimp."

"Why is that so?"

Perhaps his voice was more audible than he expected because Yuki turned her head at him and raised that question.
