Chapter 56: Her Wish

Kitten's POV

A week before her arrival in Brinein Territory.

A small family of ice cats were on their way to their new home far away from the northern territory. Two adult ice cats in their humanoid form and their little baby who was the size of a small kitten were travelling on foot towards the city of humans where the father found a job. They were a small happy family who was about to start a new life in a new county with their brother's family.

"Mama? Are we heading to our new home?"

"Yes, baby. Your uncle has found a big home in the city and we are going to live there!"

"Yay! Dad! Promise me that you will buy me a lot of fish there! I want all of them!"

"Okay princess, I will get so many that you can't even carry them inside your mouth."

"I can!! Kathryn is strong!"

"Our Kathryn is sure strong! I wonder when my baby's going to protect me from danger. Oh my, look! We are already in town!"

It was the moment they saw the beauty of Brinein port. The blue ocean, red painted roof on every building across the territory and the town lock in the middle of the city. It was a beauty.

Kathryn, the small kitten was hiding inside her father's pocket and enjoying the view of the new city, the humans, elves, and even dwarfs who were walking along the street minding their own business. It was a free territory where the duke accepted every kind.

But there was a catch…

"Dad! Where is uncle's home?"

"It's near the port, princess. See that big house with two towers? That is where my brother lives."

But their life came to an end at the moment they entered the house. Little Kathryn saw her partner's death in front of her and her so-called uncle locked her inside a small cage to sell her on the black market as a slave.

Brinein is a territory where slavery is legal. Selling and buying slaves, locking them up in a small cages, there were no rules for any slave. Power and violence is the only weapon.

Kathryn was nearly 15 years old at that time. So her transformation stage started inside the cage where she was locked up. She gained a lot of power in her small body, so she broke the cage and ran away from the auction house after a week.

But hunger became the main obstacle on her way, and she ended up near a pub.

done.me

Who is picking me up? My whole body hurts. But I can't move.

Mama, dad. I'm so sorry that I couldn't protect you. I'm sorry. Kathryn isn't strong enough.

She fainted on her way to the unknown.

"Adonis, close the door and… th.e.."

Who's talking? Hm? Where am I?

She suddenly opened her eyes and saw two silver eyes and two orange eyes staring at her.

"Nyaaaaaaa!! Who are you!! What did you do to me!!"

"Calm down. You are in a vulnerable state right now. Please keep the blanket around your body, there are only men inside this house."

She looked down there and discovered her new body. But she wasn't in the right state of mind. So, she jumped off the couch and tried to hide under the bed and she successfully banged on her forehead because the bed was short in height.

"Master, she still thinks that she can hide under the bed with her humanoid body."

"I guess so. Kitten, don't worry. We are not going to hurt you. We rescued you from an alley and then we did everything to heal you. Come and sit here. We can have a friendly conversation."

But the girl didn't come front, she stayed behind the couch and said,

"It's rude to stare at a woman who's naked and barely covering herself with a blanket."

"My master has no interest in you from that perspective, lady. You may talk with him at ease"

Adonis took a seat and made a warm cup of tea for her.

"Oh.. I see. Well then. Why did you bring me here? Are you going to sell me in the slave market, sir?"

"I have no intention of doing that with you kitten."

"Then why?"

"I just rescued someone who was in need, that's all."

"Then why didn't you come earlier? You could've saved my family!"

Viktor took a sip from his cup and looked at her.

"Do I look like a hero to you who's ready to save anyone at any time?"

"Why would a hero need to save anyone, every time?"

"You just answered your question girl. I searched for your family and they are already dead. So, you don't have anyone left in this world. You should be grateful that I helped you."

The girl stayed quiet for some moment and said," I want to avenge my family. I will work for you. I will do whatever you want. Just accept one wish for me! Please…hic…hic… please..kill that monster!! I beg you!!"

Viktor looked at her pretty white face without any expression for some moment to see her crying. Then, he said,

"Okay. But you don't have to work for me like that. You can stay here for as long as you want. And you can leave me whenever you want. I will give you a chance to kill that man with your hands when you are under my protection. But remember, when you're out of this house on your own, you are not welcome here anymore."

"Master, let her choose whether she wants to stay here and or not. Then we can decide later what to do."

"Hah! You are right."

Viktor stood up and started to walk out of the room with Adonis and then,

"Wait!!"

Both of them stopped walking…

"I am so grateful that you're giving me a chance to kill my uncle. As you said, indeed, I don't have anyone left. So, If I work for you, then you won't kick me out of the house, right?"

"I don't lie."

"Then, I will serve you for the rest of my life for you as a slave, master!! Please give me the chance to kill him!"

"You don't have to be a slave. And never bow before me. Your dignity is only yours to protect. Not me. I will pay you 20 gold per month as a newbie. Welcome to the house. This room is yours. The clothes, bathroom, bed, the books on the table, everything in this room has to offer is all yours."

What? He prepared this when I came here? This room is mine?

Just who is he? I didn't even ask his name. Is he a noble?

But, hic… hic… hic.. Mom, dad. What am I going to do with this luxury when you are not here anymore? He's so kind enough to give this to me when he doesn't even know me. Are all humans like him?

Even so, I can't trust him this easily. I'll always have to stay up on my guard. I don't know what kind of job he's going to give me. But I'm sure he's up to no good.

Viktor's POV:::

"Adonis, make sure to teach her every robe and look into the slave market. The man she's referring to must be someone related to her."

"Yes, master."

"And teach her how to use ice magic. She's an ice cat after all."

"Yes, master."

"She will work in this house as a maid, and she will be in your assistance. Make sure to treat her well and teach her magic."

This will be great now. I saved her from a great disaster. I don't feel sorry for the third male lead who has a connection with her in the future. But people don't miss what they never had. Her absence in the story won't affect the main storyline. Because she is just a small side character as a prostitute in a small room where she met the third male lead three times and finally dies.
