Lin Changli is a Chinese mountain cat. More precisely, Lin Changli is a Chinese mountain cat demon who has just become the Demon King.
Unfortunately, the day after becoming king, Lin Changli dozed off and was kidnapped by the System to the interstellar age.
The "kidnapper," the System: See that pirate ship? All you have to do is...
What are you babbling about?
Lin Changli waved a paw. "Meow, it's gone now. Hurry up and tell me how to get back!"
The System let out a piercing shriek. "Oh no, the crown prince! The mission target! Aren't you a fox spirit skilled in seduction and reading people's hearts? How did you turn into a huge, ferocious cat?"
Lin Changli felt more insulted than ever. "How dare you! I'll send the new beagle demon to your house!"
After the System and the demon had a huge fight, they came to an agreement. They would deceive everyone and have Lin Changli pretend to be the crown prince, making himself the mission target.
And so Lin Changli embarked on the path of trying to win himself over, with no turning back.
Mission One: Do a good deed so the heir you support will see you in a new light.
So Lin Changli made the best of things. After transforming into human form and tidying himself up, he pulled out the most pleasing-looking child from a starship about to be scrapped.
After doing his good deed, he didn't forget to look in the mirror and admire himself all over again. "Lin Changli, you did great!"
It was a little strange, but harmless. That is, if he had been in human form.
The child, who had just started to catch his breath, watched the fat cat talk to the mirror, then blacked out and fainted again on the spot.
Mission Two: Prepare a loving breakfast for the heir you support, and have it ready before six in the morning.
The Chinese mountain cat king fell silent. He simply stayed up all night making himself a delicious bowl of cat food, remembering to bring a portion for the unfortunate child, then went to sleep and didn't wake up until seven that evening.
The child had been hungry all night, but at least he finally got some cat food. One bite nearly made him pass out from the fishy smell.
Mission N: Help the heir you support return to the center of power.
So Lin Changli led the child all the way back to the central star system.
The missions went extremely smoothly. The only flaw was that the System's results were always delayed and unpredictable, driving Lin Changli to complain to the System every day.
The System pretended to be meek in front of Lin Changli while frantically sending reports to the main System.
After n workdays, the demon and the System finally received a response, and both were dumbfounded.
"You tell me, what does 'No issues detected, mission target Palos Windsor's data is completely normal' mean?"
The "child," now restored to adulthood, leaned over. "Brother, what are you looking at?"
Lin Changli answered casually, "Haha, nothing... By the way, what's your name?"
The man's features no longer resembled the wretched child who had once been kidnapped by space pirates, but his gaze at Lin Changli was still gentle.
He immediately declared, "If you like calling me Changpa, Brother, then I'll be Changpa. As for my old name, Palos Windsor... that was just an accident of my parents' doing."
The System exclaimed, "What a filial child!"
Lin Changli: "He's so filial it's practically fatal, but why does that sound familiar?"
System: "It does. I think I've heard that somewhere too."
Two seconds later, Lin Changli and the System: "Wait!!!"
