Synopsis
Shinichirou Asano is plagued by terrible luck. His parents abandoned him and fled to Europe, leaving him with barely enough money to survive. To pay rent and keep a roof over his head, he needs a job—but he's just been fired, and as a high school student, his options are limited. One evening, a centipede monster attacks him on his way home. A mysterious girl with a bow and arrow saves Shinichirou, and he later learns she is Sakuya Shimazu, a beautiful student at his school. When he later helps an injured girl, he makes two discoveries: first, the girl is not human but a nekomata—a two-tailed demon cat—and second, Sakuya comes from a family of exorcists who have protected humanity from rogue monsters and spirits for generations. Because Shinichirou is responsible for freeing the nekomata, Sakuya enlists his help in recapturing the demon. But that is only the beginning of his relationship with her. It turns out the Shimazu family needs a housekeeper, and as it happens, Shinichirou excels at cooking and enjoys cleaning. It may not be his dream job, but if it covers the rent and puts food on the table...
