Tomorrow's News [Tony Stark will reveal his identity as "Iron Man" during a press conference.]
Ethan Lee read through the headlines and quickly figured it out: [Yesterday's News], [Today's News], and [Tomorrow's News] provide past, current, and future reports respectively.
While not entirely useless, the reports are pretty random. One day it might be, "What veggies Grandma Li bought today," and the next, "Which planet Galactus plans to devour."
Beep–
Another call. Jessica and Gwen were calling him together, but Ethan was too busy to chat and answered perfunctorily.
Jessica: [Bro, are we contacting S.H.I.E.L.D?] Ethan: [No, ignore them.] Gwen: [Walter the Civet Cat's been handed over to them. Should we get involved?] Ethan: [Don't worry about it. Go have some fun.]
Beep– The call ended.
"Leaving it alone…" Felicia had overheard. "So… we're really not saving Dad?"
"There is a way…" Ethan suddenly had an idea and grinned mischievously. "I can help you save your father."
"Really?" Felicia lit up. "Are you asking Jessica and the others to help?"
"No, just me," Ethan smiled mysteriously. "Well, technically… just you."
"Me?" Felicia blinked, her excitement faltering. "But I've only had some basic self-defense training. How can I rescue him?"
"You know I'm Chinese, right? My ancestors passed down a special artifact…" Ethan dramatically reached for his pocket—only to remember his current clothes didn't have any.
So he led Felicia back to the bedroom, picked up his clothes off the floor, and pulled out a small object: an enhanced Monkey Talisman.
"This is a family heirloom. It grants people incredible power."
The talisman could indeed imbue someone with an animal totem's strength—but only one person per recorded totem.
"Incredible power…?" Felicia gently touched the talisman with her soft fingers. "Is it like what Jessica and the others have?"
"Yes… but there's a price," Ethan teased.
"What kind of price?" she asked cautiously.
Ethan gave a wicked grin. "Once you use it, I become your master, Felicia~"
"That's it?" Felicia giggled. "Then I accept, my master~"
She knew Ethan wouldn't treat her badly—even as a 'master.'
"Then let's begin."
Felicia nodded eagerly. "Alright! Let's do it~"
"Good. Then, Felicia… I grant you—"
Ethan activated the talisman. "The power of the cat totem."
A radiant light wrapped around Felicia—
And when it faded…
"Meow~"
What emerged was a breathtaking transformation. Felicia was already beautiful, but now she looked like a divine being. Her hair had turned snowy white, her skin shimmered like jade, and from atop her head emerged two delicate, twitching cat ears. A silky white cat tail swayed playfully behind her.
The sight was enough to stop hearts. The subtle movements of her cat ears alone could make anyone's thoughts short-circuit.
This might've gone too far, Ethan thought, stunned.
Originally, he was just entertaining the idea of turning her into an anti-hero.
But now that she had become a full-fledged cat girl, Felicia was on a whole other level of beauty.
If there were a global ranking of the most stunning women alive, Felicia would now be undeniably number one.
