The Chestnut Kitten Charges Into the World of Sorcery

Jie once raised a strange little cat. It always had a chestnut perched on its head, was insanely strong, and had a bizarre personality. Truly bizarre.

It could walk backward up stairs, walk a tightrope with its bare paws, and even shoot the chestnut on its head out like a bomb.

Jie once saw it send flying the monster that had been harassing him for ages. Then, one day, the little cat suddenly ran away from home.

When they met again, that little cat had a crowd of cursed spirits following behind it and was known as Persian.

Jie: ...

Jie: ?

Wangyue You was obsessed with a full-dive game called Jujutsu Kitties. Players entered the game in cat form, and the main quest was to cause chaos.

A glass on the table? Smash it!!

A roll of paper on the floor? Shred it!!

A potted plant on the windowsill?

He sneakily kicked the flowerpot off as if it were an accident, then struck an evil kitty pose.jpg.

[Destruction +3]

[Ding! Caretaker Geto Suguru's anger has exceeded the threshold. The kitty is advised to flee the scene immediately.]

Watching his destruction score creep up from petty pranks, Wangyue You decided to run away from home. That night, he jumped out the window and casually knocked over the potted plant he'd just glued back together.

“Time to get even worse. Heh heh heh heh heh...”

He was going out to become the Persian.

Just as he was making a name for himself and preparing to go home with a crowd of cursed spirits, he ran into Pokémon Master Geto, whose pupils were trembling.

The cat excitedly leapt at him and spoke in clear, fluent human language, grinning from ear to ear. “Jie! I'm back from hunting!”

“I caught all of these! Hurry up and eat!” He pointed at the cursed spirits behind him and looked at Jie as if presenting a precious gift.

Jie: ...?

Jie: The silence was deafening.

No spirits allowed to take human form after the founding of the nation!!!

Jujutsu High had a senior cat with a chestnut on its head, much beloved by the students. They said it was Teacher Geto's pet.

The students often fed the cat and insisted, “If it lives on campus, it's everyone's cat!”

Geto Suguru stood with his arms crossed, watching his students. With a helpless look, he pointed to the little cat sunbathing nearby. “No wonder it's gotten so much fatter lately.”

The cat narrowed its eyes. The chestnut on its head hit Geto Suguru's finger with pinpoint accuracy. It gave an annoyed Tail Whip. “You're the fat one!”

[Destruction +6]

The students' pupils shook with shock. “The cat! The cat just talked!”

Only Itadori Yuji looked thrilled as he praised it. “Amazing! Amazing! Senior Cat is amazing!”
