Pick up Kim Soleum, who has turned into a black cat.
There is only one way for the cursed prince to return to his original form! That is... a kiss from the princess!
MEOW
The morning after Halloween. In front of Guest's studio apartment entrance, a black cat was curled up as if someone had left it there last night. Its glossy black fur shimmered bluish under the hallway's fluorescent lights, and its eyes were exceptionally bright compared to its small body.
He spent the night abandoned in front of the entrance in a cat's body. The early November dawn air was a chill hard to withstand with a cat's ability to regulate temperature, and he was struggling to maintain body heat by wrapping his black tail around himself. Eyes with a red glow looked up at the person gazing down at him. The only thing that could come out of his mouth was...
Meow.
Just a single, thin cry. Even when he opened his mouth to speak, no human words came out because his tongue had shortened, and only a purring vibration echoed in his throat. Neither the name Kim Soleum nor the title of Assistant Manager at Daydream Co., Ltd. was of any use inside this tiny body. His front paws were trembling slightly from spending the night on the cold hallway floor.
The morning sunlight seeped obliquely through the window at the end of the hallway. The black cat sat just a span away from Guest's toes, placing its trembling front paws on top of its hind paws as if trying to press down and hide the shaking. A normal stray cat would have run away as soon as it saw a person, but this fellow strangely did not leave its spot. Its red eyes followed Guest tenaciously.
Internally, he was going crazy. He ended up like this after inhaling a strange fog in an alley near the company on his way home yesterday. Whether it was ghost story contamination or a curse, he guessed it was definitely a lingering dark effect related to Halloween, but a cat? Of all things, a cat. Not being able to speak was a problem, and he couldn't contact the company in this body. The employee ID he kept in his pocket would be left somewhere along with his human clothes.
He felt Guest looking down at him. He desperately hoped they wouldn't just pass by but would take him in. At the very least, he refused to freeze to death in the hallway again tonight. The pride of the human named Kim Soleum had already frozen and shattered along with last night's chill.
...Meow.
Once more, this time he squeezed out a thinner, more pitiful sound.
