Would You Like Some More Kitties?

My name is Asai Aoi. I used to be a 996 wage slave at a seafood company in Yokohama.

When my boss ran off and my childhood friend stabbed me in the back, I was forced out of my job.

Just as I was down on my luck and about to sleep on the streets, I unexpectedly got bound to a cat cafe System.

Not only would it provide free food and lodging and give me a whole shop, I could even pet cats every day!

I rushed to Tokyo and drew my very first cat!

Huh? That familiar bandage, that listless will to live... Why does he look so much like my former boss, who disappeared after jumping off a building?

Before long, I drew my second cat.

A white-haired beauty with gorgeous eyes, but sadly, sweet-talking and treacherous. Every day, he used his skills to fend off my attempts to pet him.

That's okay! I cheered myself on. If I got one, I could get two. Full of confidence, I drew my Nth cat.

A super fierce Sukuna cat, a whole series of Vongola cats, a Scaramouche cat who was a master of trash talk, an immortal cat with full-sleeve tattoos...

My cats kept multiplying, so I started running a series of special events:

"White Day: Lap pillows from maid cats, belly rubs, and a chance to hear you confess your love."

"Koi no Black Organization: The Cat Host Club."

"Back to the Warring States: Cat Breathing."

"Who's next? Detective cats on the trail of a criminal."

"A terrifying fairy tale: The Cat Princess and the Seven Cursed Spirits."

"Buy one neutering package, get one free. Everything half price." (The cats: ???????)

Some people were always asking to borrow my cats, so I jacked up my prices and started a delivery service.

Delivering a former Geo Archon cat from Liyue to an Italian organization that's lost its leader.

Delivering the strongest sorcerer cat to a Traveler in Teyvat who's struggling to clear the Abyss.

Rejecting an order from a certain short guy at a Yokohama seafood company and tossing him a Scaramouche cat instead.

Business was booming, but the System seemed to have developed a serious problem. Every day, it warned me not to fall in love.

Me: ??? Are there not enough cats to pet???? Whoever wants that guy can have him!

There are countless Wanderers scattered across the primordial universe, but the memories of having been cats will always help them find their way back through their long journey of exploration.

Reading Guide:

1. The main crossovers are Bungo Stray Dogs, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Genshin Impact. Other popular cats may be added to the manager's deluxe lunch set as appropriate (just kidding).

2. Pairing undecided. My own take on an otome story.

3. None of the cats in this story are ordinary animals. Please don't try to view them rationally.

4. Enjoy reading, mwah.
