Synopsis

The White Cat's Revenge as Plotted from the Dragon King's Lap 01 follows Ruri, a quiet and kind high school girl who is suddenly summoned to another world alongside her more popular friend, who is treated as the “chosen heroine.” Overlooked and cast aside, Ruri wanders alone until she is transformed into a small white cat after encountering powerful magic. While adapting to her new form, she is taken in by the fearsome yet gentle Dragon King, who becomes unexpectedly fond of her. From his lap, Ruri begins to rebuild her confidence and quietly plot her “revenge”—not through violence, but by living well and finding happiness on her own terms. As she navigates palace life, magic, and her mysterious transformation, the story blends lighthearted romance, fantasy, and themes of self-worth and healing.
