She defeated a Demon King. She reshaped the laws of magic. She lived for one hundred and twenty-seven years as the most powerful being in her world. Then she slipped on a wet floor and hit her head on a teapot. Now Talia the Inexhaustible — legendary Arch Mage, destroyer of gods, terror of dragons — has been reincarnated as a five-pound Persian kitten named Ms. Fluffokins. The indignity is bottomless. Her new owner is Princess Sophea of the tiny mountain kingdom of Highellow: restless, stubborn, secretly brilliant, and completely unaware that her cat is a reincarnated arch mage with infinite magical power and an absolutely unreliable spellcasting system. When Talia attempts a minor cantrip, there is a fifty percent chance of success, a thirty percent chance of nothing happening, and a twenty percent chance of something structural being destroyed. When a dangerously charming prince arrives with a marriage proposal, a trained shadow assassin, and a meticulously organized murder plot, Talia quickly realizes that the only thing standing between Sophea and catastrophe is one very small cat, with very large feelings, and absolutely no thumbs. Armed with a cracked mana focus pendant, a velvet carry pouch, and the accumulated fury of a being who once bent reality and is now routinely defeated by closed jars, Talia must navigate court politics, diplomatic dinners, and the deeply inconvenient personal crisis of realizing she has fallen in love with the girl she was supposed to be protecting. Featuring: A System that awards XP for plate-licking and docks dignity for everything else Soup weaponized as a diplomatic instrument One (1) signal tower destroyed via cat mouth A quest titled "Operation Cockblock" that the System named without consultation and does not apologize for The single most improbable bond in recorded magical history THE UNFORTUNATE ENGAGEMENT is a wildly funny, surprisingly heartfelt LitRPG fantasy about power, powerlessness, the particular indignity of being underestimated, and the specific kind of courage it takes to stand between someone you love and everything that wants to hurt them. Even when standing between them means doing it as a cat. She is not happy about it. But she is waiting.
