Synopsis
Envious girl offered demonic power to steal from her perfect best friend and her boyfriend.
Yoshika and Yukina are best friends at school. Yukina is both physically beautiful and possesses a kind and gentle personality that charms everyone who knows her, including her wonderful boyfriend. Yoshika is less traditionally beautiful and has a less alluringly feminine personality. In addition, she desperately likes Yukina's boyfriend. While Yoshika does care for her friend, she is also deeply envious of her. One day, a demon in the form of a house cat appears to Yoshika and offers her the supernatural power to take whatever she wants from her friend. How far will Yoshika let her jealousy of her best friend take her? (Source: MU)
