A Guide to Raising a Meow-Meow Evil God

1: You are an evil god from a higher-dimensional world: powerful, terrifying, impossible to look at, and worshipped by countless followers.

2: You've now become a cat, a kitten who has just left its mother and has a broken leg. You ran into a little trouble while breaking through the barrier around Blue Star.

3: You're about to starve to death. You need to find someone to take care of you.

The cat evil god licks its furry paw. Its sharp, cold gaze searches among a crowd of humans of every kind, finally settling on an impressive human with a tall, upright figure.

The cat evil god pounces, clings to the outstanding human's pant leg, swings back and forth, and meows fiercely.

--Hurry, human! Take me home and raise me! Once I return to my true form, I'll grant you supreme glory!

Then,

as the cat evil god watches in growing disbelief, the outstanding human expressionlessly takes out a folding cane, pulls sunglasses from his pocket and puts them on, then bends down and slowly, hesitantly reaches for the weight on his pant leg.

Cat evil god: ...

Maybe I should just keep living as a stray cat (god).

Shen Qian has just returned from an S-class contaminated zone, where he dealt with several high-risk contaminants. He's broken a leg and injured his eyes, so he'll need some time to recover.

But he plans to keep working, since his injuries won't affect his daily life. His sharp-eyed superior forces him to go home and recuperate anyway.

On the way, he picks up a kitten.

He really is popular with small animals.

Shen Qian struggles to keep the corners of his mouth from turning up: Let's take the kitty to the hospital for a checkup first.

The cat evil god in his arms is utterly resigned: Maybe you should go to a human hospital first (emphasis on human) and get your brain checked instead.

Shen Qian's idea of daily life with a cat:

Wake up with the cat walking on him, prepare cat food, exercise, try to exercise with the cat and get beaten up;

Prepare lunch for himself and the cat, watch TV with the cat;

Call headquarters in the afternoon to ask when he can return to work, get tactfully told to continue recuperating, then exercise, try to exercise with the cat and get beaten up, listen to audiobooks, and prepare dinner for himself and the cat;

Wash up at night, play with the cat for an hour, go to bed.

Repeat the next day. Life is varied and happy, except that he's a little down about being turned away from work.

In reality, from the cat evil god's perspective:

In the morning, get crushed awake by a stupid human, beat him up, move all the furniture he's about to crash into, beat him up, fail to summon followers, beat him up, and reluctantly eat some of the food the human made.

In the afternoon, smack to death the creepy thing that flew in through the window and had its eye on the human, beat up the human who tries to make it exercise, fail to summon followers, keep beating him up, reluctantly eat.

At night, play on a phone. The cat evil god can resist any temptation except the phone and beating up that stupid human.
