In the private Hero High School, where young talents of dungeon explorers gather, Makoto Akaya enrolls, believing in his own abilities. However, upon discovering the gap between himself and his classmates, he realizes that he is the biggest failure in the school. Nevertheless, in the midst of despair, he encounters a skill tree that only he can use, and Makoto Akaya's life begins to change for the better.

"The Catgirl and the Petting Enthusiast"


This morning, when the Skill Tree presented this mission, I was left utterly baffled. But after seeing Shibahime, Vilte, and Rindo, the term catgirl made sense. Their ears, tails, and overall feline charm—how could anyone miss it?


In essence, the mission demanded that I pet these girls.


If they were actual cats, sure. But they weren't. They were catgirls—half-human, half-cat hybrids, which made the situation exponentially worse. There was no way they'd just let me stroll up and start petting them.


Attempting such a thing would require the courage of a madman and the resignation of a martyr. Not to mention the inevitability of being despised afterward.


What kind of sick title was The Petting Enthusiast anyway? It made me sound like some kind of depraved creature.
