I’m Broke After Inheriting Three Cats

Read with caution...

[This novel will enter paid serialization on October 8, starting from Chapter 10. Thank you for your support!]

Yuan Tang had been a cat demon for over a thousand years. One day, she transmigrated into a skinny, frail tabby cat whose only redeeming quality was being cute. She looked at the three kittens mewing at her for food, then at the house leaking so badly it could double as a fish pond.

The four cats were dumbfounded...

Before long, she hitched a ride to the big city.

Registration clerk at the Bureau of Demon Affairs: "Dear, before you can register your residence, you need vaccinations and internal and external parasite treatments. Based on your species, I recommend the pet hospital next door for you and the kittens. Don't worry about the cost, you can work to pay it off!"

Yuan Tang, after getting her shots and a thorough wash: Who am I? Where am I? My innocence! My dignity!

After struggling to get her whole crew into the Bureau of Demon Affairs, she discovered that her own department was drowning in debt, while the department across the hall, run by her sworn enemy, the stinking Daoist, was filthy rich?! If she didn't go over there and mooch off them, she wouldn't be a disciple of Bai Ze!

Bo Yan, the stinking Daoist boss: "You look familiar..."

Yuan Tang: "Director Bo, your money looks familiar to me too."

Bo Yan: "..."

One day, Yuan Tang had just beaten a flood dragon into the sky when she turned around and found Bo Yan staring at her.

Yuan Tang: "...This guy must be following me every day!"

Bo Yan: "You must be the nine-tailed cat demon who has been wanted for five hundred years. You murdered your master and stole a book. Hand over the Bai Ze Diagram!"

Yuan Tang, about to be hunted by humans, ghosts, and demons alike: No need to panic. I just have to get this sole witness on my side. If I can't get rid of him, I'll have to try another way.

Bo Yan: ?...!

Underling: "Boss, pursuing someone doesn't mean chasing them around to beat them up! Giving her a dead mouse isn't a threat?"

Yuan Tang: No need to panic. I think things are going great. Everything's under control.

Underling: "...Boss, it looks like the other person is furious."

P.S. 1. The three kittens aren't the heroine's babies. She adopts them.

2. The heroine didn't kill her master.

3. Some monster lore borrows from the Classic of Mountains and Seas, with modifications.

4. I'm terrible at blurbs, so I've given up trying.

5. Updates once a week when I can be bothered. Read or don't, it's up to you. It won't be long, and I will finish it.

Theme: Stay optimistic and strong through adversity. The light will come.
