Title: Having Such a Master, You Poor Thing

“Where’s that youkai?”

Haruno was somewhat incredulous; they had both been cursed by a nekomata!

“It seems to be dead...”

Having learned the way to break the curse, Yukino felt relieved. As long as she could return to being human, that was enough.

Although cats were cute, who would want to live forever as one?

Not to mention, cats also had their fixed heat cycles...

“Let’s go home, Yukino! Our parents will definitely recognize us!”

“Are you sure? Mom can recognize both of us?”

As a big cat lover, the reason Yukino never kept cats was because Mrs. Yukinoshita was allergic to cat fur, and her allergies were severe.

Faced with the problem, the first thing Haruno thought of was their parents, but if they both approached the Yukinoshita family villa now, they would definitely be quickly discovered by security and driven away.

“Then how about this? Look for Shizuka? Nanako?”

Haruno didn’t have many friends either. The only ones she could think of were Shizuka and Nanako.

“Do you think Hiratsuka-sensei has the brains for that?”

In Yukino’s heart, Shizuka didn’t seem very smart.

“...Shizuka is indeed less suitable, then shall we look for Nanako?”

“Your relationship with Nanako-san isn’t that close either, is it? Although Nanako-san is very gentle, she might not necessarily be able to recognize both of us.”

“Then what should we do! It’s still night now, if we don’t go to school tomorrow, Mom will find out about this soon. Knowing that we’re both missing, she will definitely be very worried, right?”

Imagining herself and Yukino disappearing at the same time, Haruno felt like the sky was about to fall.

Thinking of her strict mother being sad because of her disappearance, Yukino felt a little bit of vengeful pleasure in her heart.

Under the high pressure from her parents, for a child like Yukino, the greatest revenge she could think of might be to make her parents very sad because of her disappearance.

“Just look for Nohara-kun, he’s next door.”

For some reason, the first person Yukino thought of wasn’t her parents, but Shinnosuke.

“That unreliable little brat?”

Haruno meowed loudly twice to express her dissatisfaction.

“He’s my friend, he will definitely recognize me.”

Although her words sounded firm, Yukino’s tone wasn’t very confident. Could Shinnosuke really recognize her?

Hearing her younger sister’s words, Haruno also fell silent. Shinnosuke lived next door; it seemed to be the only option at the moment.

Nanako lived in the university dormitory, and it wouldn’t be easy to sneak in. It was better to look for Shinnosuke first and try; maybe he could really recognize Yukino?

If Shinnosuke could really recognize Yukino, handing Yukino over to him wouldn’t be a bad idea either...

After deciding to look for Shinnosuke, Yukino actually felt relaxed and began to experience the strange sensation of being a cat. With just a light leap, she jumped down from the bed.

“Don’t run around!”

Haruno wasn’t very used to her cat body; her walk was wobbly and not as agile as Yukino at all.

“Nee-san is so clumsy.”

Finally being able to outdo Haruno once made Yukino very happy. She jumped onto the table in the bedroom and licked the water in the glass. She perfectly played the cunningness and elegance of a cat.

“I’m just a little unaccustomed!”

Haruno was still stubborn but almost stumbled and fell. Even her walk was irregular, completely unable to walk gracefully like a cat like Yukino.

“Nee-san, what exactly happened at home?”

Yukino asked a question at a time like this; Haruno couldn’t ignore it. Maybe the two sisters would have to spend the rest of their lives together as cats?

As a hardcore siscon, Haruno suddenly felt that if she could spend the rest of her life with her younger sister, becoming a cat for life wasn’t so bad after all?

“The family business is facing a big problem. Because the head of the Shinomiya family is getting sicker, his three sons want to compete for the inheritance rights, so they are trying hard to show themselves.”

“The family’s real estate business has been affected, and the stock has been diluted in large quantities. If this continues, Yukinoshita Real Estate might be acquired and restructured by the Shinomiya family, and we will go bankrupt.”

The Shinomiya family wasn’t targeting the Yukinoshita family; they just wanted to expand in Chiba, but that had already made the Yukinoshita family unable to hold their heads up.

“Ah, earlier at the shrine, my wish was for this matter to be resolved. Yukino-chan, what was your wish? It wasn’t to become a cat, was it?”

“Nee-san, don’t joke at a time like this. Help me open the door.”

Yukino’s wish was to know how Shinnosuke viewed her, whether he also considered her a close friend.

She didn’t expect the test for Shinnosuke to come so quickly. Could he recognize her?

The apartment security door required force to open. The two cat-girls tried hard for a long time before finally managing to open it.

Next was knocking on Shinnosuke’s room door. After trying hard for a long time, they finally produced some dull thumping sounds.

“Can that brat really hear? Aren’t we just wasting our energy?”

Haruno was very unaccustomed to her cat body. Bumping into the door made her feel like her bones were almost broken.

“Even if Nohara-kun doesn’t hear, Shiro will definitely hear.”

“Shiro?”

The door opened. The one who opened it was indeed Shiro.

“Eh? Are you looking for Shinnosuke?”

Seeing the two cats in front of the door whose scent was very familiar, Shiro was surprised again. Why were there so many strange things happening today? Was there going to be another new movie?

The surprise experienced by the two Yukinoshita sisters was no less than Shiro’s. It turned out that they could not only understand each other’s words but also understand dog language?

“Shiro, you can understand what I’m saying?”

Yukino meowed twice, a little incredulously. Logically, even if they could understand animal language, these animals shouldn’t have such high intelligence!

Even relatively smart cats and dogs should only be able to have simple communication?

“Aren’t you Miss Yukinoshita from next door? Why have you become a cat?”

“Can we come in and talk? We have some business and want to ask Nohara-kun for help.”

Shiro nodded and made way. The two Yukinoshita sister-cats successfully entered the house.

“Master is still watching television. I just finished cleaning up. I happened to hear the sound of you hitting the door. At first, I thought I misheard, thankfully I saw you.”

‘Cleaning up? Has the world gone this crazy?’

Haruno widened her eyes. Could this dog be like them, cursed? A dog spirit curse?

“Having such a master, you poor thing.”

The last time she saw Shiro helping Shinnosuke with chores, Yukino felt Shinnosuke was a bit much. She didn’t expect him to even ask Shiro to help clean.

Strangely, Yukino, who was initially very afraid of dogs, wasn’t afraid of Shiro at all after turning into a cat.

Perhaps the naturally free-spirited cat looked down on the loyal dog from the bottom of her heart?
