The Black Cat's Crown

A heroine who only pretends to be lecherous but is really evasive and insecure about feeling safe × Fontaine's most dazzling great magician, who falls first and skillfully weaves a web.

Wen Qi is an orphan from Liyue, born into an unhappy family with a scummy father and mother. They schemed and waited for her birth, planning to trade her healthy life for that of her frail, dying older sister.

Unfortunately, tradition in this land is "generous," and there are countless con artists who swindle people under the guise of being adepti.

Both of the Wen parents fell victim to an adeptus scam, and their daughter was born a little monster with the ability to remember everything from birth. And she had a cheat, too: at four years old, she sent them flying with a tree branch on Dragonspine...

Wen Qi has a big family, but she was born outside it.

The cold stage of the Winter Palace is a grand spectacle, where all kinds of dancing kings compete to outshine one another. Wen Qi has spent her whole life flattering the dancing kings, and the only thing she's learned is how to treat people according to their status.

The great magician of Fontaine, the next [King] of the House of the Hearth, is a black cat one year younger than her, with a fairly kind heart. He's the one she's chosen to spend her life treating according to his status.

But she doesn't know cats as well as she thinks: a cat that smiles isn't necessarily friendly.

The lesson is that cats have sharp claws, and their scratches really hurt...

[Important!!]

1. Out-of-character moments ahead!!

2. There may be plot holes. The author's brain isn't great, and the story goes wherever the mood strikes.

3. There are countless authors on Jinjiang. If it's not to your taste, just switch to something else.

4. More warnings to come if I think of any.

Theme: A sense of security comes from within yourself and from everyone who chooses to support you.
