The hero Ledo and his companions have a mission: defeat the Demon Lord once and for all. Aina is a formidable fighter, taking down foes with only her fists and feet; Grace the wizard harnesses powerful magic to blast away enemies in their path.

Everyone knows you can’t just dump a cat off your lap in good conscience. If Ledo pushes this sweet kitty away while it’s happily making biscuits, will he be any better than the monsters he’s trying to fight? A swords and sorcery story for fans of cats and comedy!
