Cat Princess and Human Knight

Looking down at Darkclaw and Ner'zhul before her, and then at Rehgar lying lifeless on the ground, Ophelia, who was 178 centimeters tall, raised an eyebrow slightly, revealing a murderous intent.

Her lip color changed from peach to dark purple as her murderous intent grew, and then returned to peach.

"Tsk tsk tsk, blood is everywhere! You dirty little guys, don't you know I have a terrible temper when I wake up?"

Why interrupt my slumber? If you don't have a good reason, you can all just die.

Dark Claw bowed and said.

"The great demigod's daughter, eleventh seat of the Council of Hearts, the Embrace of Death, Ophelia. Lady Night Kiss."

Please forgive our rudeness in interrupting your slumber, for it is the will of the God of Darkness.

Ophelia narrowed her eyes.

"Eleven seats? Another drop in rankings?"

Those juniors are really clueless. I told them long ago that they should either not include me in the Council of People's Hearts and Minds, or give me a seat as the chief.

"You mean the Dark God, that old bastard? Has he returned?"

"No, the God of Darkness has not yet returned."

"Since you haven't returned yet, why disturb my slumber?"

"The King of Another World has descended once more."

Ophelia's gaze sharpened, and Darkclaw, who had just spoken, and Ner'zhul beside her instantly felt suffocated, a deep fear rising from the depths of their hearts.

"Interesting... Kitten, tell me, what exactly happened?"

---

Beneath the oak tree, on the green throne, Astraea's eyes flickered, her mind heavy with thoughts.

Sunlight filtered through the oak branches and leaves, dappling the flowerbed in front of her like stars.

Ilya lay in the flowerbed, the irises radiating green energy that seeped into her skin and nourished her body.

Astraea gave a bitter smile, wondering what she was doing.

The pact with the God of Light was not fulfilled, and the future of humanity remains bleak.

He has become enemies with Ilya and has to spend a lot of effort to heal her injuries and help her recover as soon as possible.

After going out for a while, I ended up with serious injuries and was disliked by everyone. Why did I even bother getting involved in this mess?

Finally, Astraea couldn't help but think of Yi Yin's image. She looked down at her lower body, felt the changes within her, and closed her eyes in distress.

Damn it... Why did my spring tide come back?

It's like mud getting into your crotch; you can't just say it's not there. It's truly impossible to clear your name even if you jump into the Yellow River.

Astraea is now living each day like an eternity, hoping these seven days will pass quickly so that this nightmare will never have happened.

But as she was lost in thought, she didn't notice that the sunlight was shining on her, and the shadows on and behind her seat were growing and expanding.

The shadows of the person and the seat seemed to have a mind of their own, slowly spreading outwards, while the confused Astraea remained completely unaware.

It wasn't until the shadow climbed up the throne to her shoulders and transformed into a pair of smooth, slender hands that rested on her shoulders that she suddenly realized what was happening.

Astraea glanced at the hand on her shoulder and said coldly.

"Ophelia, you're awake again?"

Ophelia's figure became clearer. She smiled and rested her chin on Astraea's forehead, her hands seemingly casually resting on Astraea's neck.

"I was lucky to wake up at the right time, otherwise I wouldn't have seen such a wonderful and interesting thing."

Tsk tsk tsk, Astraea, what do I smell?

"No need to hide it anymore. You know my sensitivity to blood. Even if you use your strength to cover it up, I can still smell the blood there, the scent of spring that you exude."

Astraea's face turned bright red, which made Ophelia giggle.

"I'm furious," Astraea said.

"What exactly do you want here?!"

Ophelia shook her head and said.

"It's not about what I should do, but about what you've already done!"

Astraea, I remember the last time I woke up, you were still an innocent little girl.

When I last woke up, Ilya was just a babbling little sprout.

You're a whole generation older than Ilya, you're her mother's best friend, an elder who watched her grow up, how could you beat her like this?

Ophelia lowered her head and whispered in Astraea's ear.

"Just to steal her man... I'm ashamed of you, Astraea."

Astraea's pupils split open, and extraordinary power surged forth from them.

"Shut up, Ophelia! It's not what you think!"

An excited Astraea was caught up in Ophelia's trap and found herself in a state of embarrassment and anger.

His body, which was already under Ophelia's control due to distraction, became even more passive now that he was unleashing his extraordinary power.

Ophelia had been waiting for this moment. She opened her mouth and absorbed the green life force that Astraea had unleashed, let out a comfortable burp, and then lowered her head to kiss Astraea's cheek.

The spot where she was kissed turned black, then transformed into magical runes that seeped into Astraea's mind, making her drowsy and unable to open her eyes.

"Poor Astraea, you are badly injured and need to rest."

"Ophelia... what... what are you going to do..."

"Of course, it's to complete your unfinished mission, to kill that otherworldly human king, and to fulfill the agreement between gods and humans."

"Oh, right, I'll take Ilya with me. You can also fall into a deep sleep and rest well."

"No...no...what are you going to do!"

"Hehehe... I will send Ilya back to her sisters. When they see Ilya, who has fallen into a deep sleep because of the Otherworld King, I believe they will be willing to lend a hand."

After all, they're sisters.

Astraea strained her eyes, unwilling to fall into slumber. Hearing Ophelia's twisted conspiracy only intensified her worry and panic about Yi Yin.

"No...you can't do this...you can't! Ilya loves Yiyin, you can't let her sister kill her man!"

Ophelia lowered her head, patted Astraea's head, and smiled triumphantly as she watched her junior's helpless panic.

"Of course I can. It's all for the future of humanity, isn't it?"

The humans who knew the truth had long since disappeared into the past. Astraea only regarded Ophelia as an elder who was disrespectful to his elders and had no idea what Ophelia had done.

Ophelia is the daughter of the Dark God and a pawn infiltrating the human race, a fact unknown to the existing human population.

Over the long years, toying with humans has become Ophelia's only source of pleasure in keeping her alive.

Among humans, men have long since disappeared.

Astraea and Ilya's mother was from the older generation.

The three Illya sisters belong to the middle generation.

The next generation will all be catgirls.

Because they lost their men, apart from Ilya's mother who unexpectedly became pregnant and gave birth to triplets, the rest of the older generation gained nothing.

Aside from the humans who went mad and eventually gave birth to catgirls who were half-human and half-cat, the human population dwindled and was on the verge of extinction.
