Introduction
Che-Hsin is constantly caught up in misfortune. One day, a car accident leads to him coming across a cat demon running for his life. He has no choice but to let the cat demon take control of his body in order to stay alive. Surprisingly, however, his luck takes a 180° turn—not only is good fortune on his side now, he also becomes immensely popular at school.
The good luck the demon cat brings him has a price though. One day, he meets a strange boy on the road, who keeps following him and saying, "Play with me." What's more, he pulls out a mysterious, magical tool from a mark on Che-Hsin's wrist. What is the boy up to? How should Che-Hsin regain control over his body? How many untold secrets will the demon cat's presence reveal?
An average boy and an enigmatic demon cat partner together on an adventure. Inspired by Taiwan's folk beliefs, Aliyo builds a fantasy world with exhilarating action scenes to deliver a story of supernatural creatures rooted in the dark side of human nature.
