Cat people were supposed to be a hidden race within the beast family.
Due to their lineage, you could argue that there was no difference between them and demons. But they looked human, and at some point, they served the demon king.
But that was a long time ago.
Beast people, demi-humans, spirits, and many other species split off after the war that happened a few hundred years before.
This led to the cat people having to adapt to their change in surroundings, making them one of the most feared species in the northern region.
It has been said no one fought with a cat person and survived. Even among their own family, they were still superior, only slightly above the wolf people.
It has always been that way and stayed that way for a while. Hence, people knew not to take them for granted.
And yet—
"You didn't hear what I said? Somehow I find that to be untrue." The cat leader frowned a bit; she could sense their dishonesty all the way to her seat.
