Am I a squirrel? How, why, and what?

When I opened my eyes, I found myself as a squirrel. Not just any squirrel, but a rare 'divine beast' squirrel capable of calming a wizard's magic.

But I was definitely human!

To return to my human form, I need to gather magical power. There’s someone perfect for this task: Johann Hilarid, who will become a terrifying villain in the future!

Every night, I visit the innocent-looking Johann, giving him acorns and petting his head while diligently saving up that immense magical power...

"My squirrel."

Huh? Me? Since when?

"You can't go out dangerously when I'm not around. Otherwise, I won't be able to protect you." "Kyung?"

This young prince destined to grow into a villain seems a bit off. Very much so!
