Chapter 798: System Rider Meomi

The plates on the living armour shifted as the System Driver activated the card. The flash of deafening white light was simply the System’s way of throwing a flashbang against the enemy hoping they would be stopped in their tracks, so the Living Armour Plates had enough time to rearrange themselves.

And for good reason.

With the card’s activation, the System was giving permission to fuse Meomi soul’s with Jin’s body temporarily, causing him to take the backseat while Meomi forcefully entered.

Thus, as odd as it sounded, Jin was now harbouring two souls in his body with Meomi acting as the dominant one. The new living armour also portrayed this temporary change to match Meomi’s exterior appearance.

The plates turned orange in colour and from a Panda Half Mask, it turned to become a Cat Half Mask. (A rather stylish version of the werecat’s appearance.)

“Meeeeoww. Master, your body is all creaky and stiff! No wonder you stood no chance to defeat him.” Meomi said playfully as she bent down and stretched their entire body akin to a cat waking up from its nap. “You should do some of that yoga thingy with Lynn and Qiu Yue once in a while. It would help you with your mobility a little bit.”

“Thank goodness, I am currently not connected to any nerves…I’ll probably feel the muscles aching from Meomi’s stretch afterwards, though.” Jin thought to himself as Meomi performed a backflip without even jumping. He noticed there was now a tail created from the nano suit of living armour.

“All good now! System Rider Meomi has arrived!” The werecat announced as Meomi posed more elegantly than what Jin did.

“How can she have a better pose than me! System, you are obviously biased!” Jin shouted from the backseats while Meomi giggled delightfully.

“System can only remember how lazy User was. Always sitting down and drinking coffee or tea to do work. There is no pose for System to analyse. Unless User wished to have a chair as part of the props for the pose.” The System rebutted, and Moloch laughed hysterically.

“Hahaha! Good one System! Master! You should really learn how Meomi does things.” Moloch advised sheepishly as he happily caged himself to a corner once more.

“You think changing yourself into a cat will make you like a cat? And what’s with that female tone? Are you insulting me now?” King Baal questioned as he pounced forward and decided to test whether this new change in suit’s appearance would hamper his chances of victory. Though in all honesty, he did not give a damn.

True enough, Meomi was able to dodge the incoming attack easily and slashed back with her own claws. With Meomi possessing the System Rider suit, the System had also made adequate changes in a way that would closely match the monster Jin had decided to use against his opponent. This way, Jin would literally have the backing of his monsters to aid him in his fights even if he was in the real world.

Whether he wished to show the world the System Rider…would be another issue by itself. All the System knew was that it had done its job rewarding Jin for the mission he had done. Partially because the System knew it owed him too many rewards.

Jin might not have been pressing for it, but the System prided itself on staying true to its word. Perhaps, part of the reasoning was that lately, Jin seemed unwilling to take on any missions with all the backlogs he had accumulated. Maybe, he should learn how to say no a little more though

“Heh, let me show you who the better cat is!” Meomi taunted back, pretending to be Jin since he couldn’t really talk out with her at the front. She proceeded to jump and gave Baal a kick to his chin. The King managed to block it, but Meomi was faster as she changed her posture and sent a swift back kick at the side, causing him to be knocked to the side of the ‘duelling cage’ that they were in.

“Meomi!” Jin did shout his frustration for her imitation of him.

“Master! Even though your body is stiff as a rock, the powers within you are so addicting!” Meomi totally ignored her master’s dissatisfaction at the way she tried to talk.

“Just continue to press him! Moloch did say he still got the frog form he only uses when things turn bad. Knowing that he is dealt with by his own hand, he will-“

“Master, he is already changing.” Meomi interrupted as King Baal had indeed changed into his frog form and used his whip sword with skill. “Can I continue to fight some more or do you want to swap out, too?” Meomi charged forth despite her polite request.

“User, if you deem the monster you’ve selected to be acting overboard, you can use your authority to retake the body by forcibly cancelling the fusion. It will, however, exhaust you if the monster in question decides to resist.” The System explained, and Jin sighed.

“Even though it’s my own body they are using?”

“It is precisely because it is your body that such an option is available to you.”

“Yeah~! Don’t mind me, Master!’ Meomi playfully shared her thoughts as she zoomed in, evading the whip sword and tried to close the gap.

“Stupid human.” King Baal cursed as he lifted his other hand. Following his gesture, continuous pillar of rocks abruptly emerged from the ground blocking Meomi’s advance. But, thanks to her innate ability to soften her landing, Meomi was able to avoid crashing into the pillar.

However, Meomi did not realise that the whip sword could be controlled with magic as well and it turned to aim at the System Rider. “Ehhh, I did not know whip swords could do this. Too bad my magic control is terrible.” Meomi considered using her own whip sword she had while avoiding the attack. However, she was interrupted when a hand broke through the pillar and grabbed Meomi by the neck.

“What the-?” Meomi tried to struggle as she saw the whip sword swerved over the pillar and aimed towards her. “You are pissing me off! I had quietly promised to give Master his body back without any damage.” She cursed as the Half Werecat Mask suddenly turned animated and a hidden low jaw appeared.

With the mask’s mouth, she managed to stop the whip sword from slicing her head into half and subsequently broke the tip. In the meantime, she used Jin’s Maqi enhanced body to overcome Baal’s hold on her neck by plunging her claws into his frog-looking hands.

It eventually caused him to release the chokehold, and Meomi took a leap backwards. “This frog is more than I can handle, and my time is unfortunately ending. Master, I’m sorry I can’t offer you an extension. Do you wish to call that Froggie for aid?” Meomi suggested as she already took a card out.

“Heh, I think he would be so glad to fight a formidable foe. Do -“

“Card Activated. Gaeru Form.” The System Driver stated, and Meomi stuck her tongue to the side of her mouth as her soul disintegrated, making room for Gaeru to enter.
