Chapter 111.1 : Lucky Ran!

In Golden List's live broadcast room, as the golden light and the six-pointed star array dissipated, a mysterious atmosphere enveloped the space. 

A girl emerged, her eyes gentle yet perplexed, adorned with long, dark blue and black hair tied with a red ribbon. A purple ponytail swung behind her, and her red pupils added to the enigmatic allure.

The girl's milky-white skin seemed to radiate in the sunlight, giving her an ethereal glow. Tapping her toes, she walked gracefully toward Uchiha Ran, showcasing what a true catwalk meant. A long sword with a scabbard hung casually at her waist, exuding a valiant air.

Her attire was surprisingly ordinary—a simple dress with a small suit on top and a knee-length pleated skirt paired with stockings. She resembled an everyday high school girl.

Every move she made seemed instinctively comforting and easygoing.

"Owner!"

The girl dove into Uchiha Ran's arms, her eyes filled with nostalgia and admiration. Her voice, with a hint of laziness, carried a unique charm, creating a lively and lazy atmosphere. Her sweet smile, like a ray of sunshine, warmed everyone's hearts.

It felt truly comforting.

"Himari, how old are you?" Uchiha Ran inquired, stroking Himari's distinctive cat ears.

Himari, feeling comfortable enough to purr, restrained herself and said coquettishly, "Master, Himari is sixteen years old this year, and today is her birthday. Can you make fish for me?"

"I'll make you a snack," Uchiha Ran chuckled.

Himari's purple-red eyes lit up, and she wrapped her arms around Uchiha Ran's waist, saying with a smile, "Thank you, master. Master is just the best."

"Himari, do you know about the Amakawa family and Noihara?" Uchiha Ran continued.

"I know. The ancestors of Amakawa subdued my cat demon clan's ancestor, and each generation of our clan dresses and protects the new head of the Amakawa clan. But that's a matter for those below; for me, it's the princess's turn. There's a hint of cute pride in Himari's voice.

Uchiha Ran nodded, understanding the situation.

In Himari's world, it seemed that the cat demon family hadn't declined—a positive outcome.

A cat demon princess with a complete inheritance could undoubtedly be of great assistance.

"Yeah, what are you doing?"

Suddenly, Himari's voice turned vigilant and hostile.

Uchiha Ran looked down and noticed Ikaros had nudged Himari away a bit, following suit himself. Himari, acting like a protective kitten over food, bared her cute teeth.

"Ikaros, what are you doing?" Uchiha Ran chided.

"Master, happy," Ikaros replied expressionlessly. "This cat can make the master happy, and so can Ikaros."

It turned out she had acquired a versatile traditional learning function for entertainment. Uchiha Ran couldn't help but shake his head at the realization.

Originally, Ikaros was the Queen of the Sky, a weapon of war. However, after the seal was lifted, Daedalus, her mother and producer, transformed her into an entertainment angel. She possessed a set of tricks to please her master, and as the master, Uchiha Ran naturally enjoyed them first.

"You two, settle down, or I'll get angry and punish you!" Uchiha Ran sternly pulled the two girls out of his arms, giving them a serious lesson.

If not, chaos around Tsunade and Yuhi would surely erupt. In reality, handling a riot wasn't a significant issue for him; he could easily suppress it.

But now it's time for Golden List's live broadcast, and he's not keen on putting on a real-life idol drama for the entire ninja world.

"Humph!" Himari playfully made a threatening little noise, resembling the sound of a kitten.

A glint flashed in Ikaros' eyes as she effortlessly assessed Himari's situation and remarked dumbly, "You're threatening me, but based on my judgment, you're not my opponent."

The elder sister capable of shooting for the moon certainly isn't your match.

"Damn it, are you provoking me?"

Himari didn't know the details and personality of Ikaros, but hearing her being seriously assessed, she was about to reach for the hilt of her sword, intending to act without saying a word.

Ikaros blinked, wondering where Himari found the courage to attack her.

"Himari, I said it's okay!"

Uchiha Ran raised his voice slightly.

Himari's expression changed; she quickly withdrew her attack, saying timidly, "Master, Himari is obedient. You're upset."

"My temper isn't that small."

Uchiha Ran patted Himari's head.

"Hee hee," Himari suddenly displayed a happy smile.

Ikaros quickly raised her head.

Uchiha Ran did not object.

Himari bit her lip but obediently stayed silent.

The office fell silent for a moment.

It wasn't until this moment that everyone wiped their eyes, some clapped their hands.

"Hey~ that hurts, is it real?" Tobirama said in disbelief.

"Haha, luckily, the old man is dreaming," Hashirama, also patting himself, laughed and said, "Just say this is wrong. How can a cat transform into such a beautiful and unique woman? It's too strange. It must be a dream."

Rubbing his hands, Tobirama twitched his eyes as he glanced at his elder brother, complaining, "Nissan, are you trying to experience pain in your state of reincarnation?"

Hashirama's laughter came to an abrupt end.

Then, he asked in disbelief, "So, everything is true?"

"Absolutely!"

"A cat turned into a beautiful girl!?"

"That's right!"

"It's not fair. Ran-boy gets everything."

"Yes!"

"Like that Ikaros, he's also get to be called the master."

"Exactly!"
