It was only because of that afternoon's entanglement, stemming from her own encounter with the big-tailed Cat Girl, that fate had, on that day, led Lillim onto another path that she had never imagined.
She had thought she would live with Mr. Malin forever, maybe live a life different from the past, but Lillim never expected her life to become so dramatic.
