The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

"Kroix suddenly asked."

"Have."

"Could I borrow it for a moment?"

Without much hesitation, Dekan handed the [Communication Toxin 1.0] to Chloeux.

After obtaining the card, Chloex made no further attempt to find the [Forced Dispel] ability.

He immediately used [Communication Toxin 1.0] on the cat teacher.

"what are you doing?"

Dekan was surprised by Chloeux's behavior.

But his expression quickly turned even more surprised.

He saw that when Chloex applied [Communication Toxin 1.0] to Nyanko-sensei, Nyanko-sensei immediately relaxed.

"Phew, I'm saved, meow."

The cat teacher jumped comfortably to the ground, closed his eyes, raised his head, and seemed to be marveling at the beauty of the air.

It was fully revitalized and dashed into Chloeux's dormitory.

It has a strong sense of wanting to loot the food.

Seeing this bizarre scene, Dekan covered his head in bewilderment.

"What's going on...?"

He felt a sense of faith collapsing.

If the toxins from the exchange are dispelled, then so be it.

Why can communication toxins be neutralized by communication toxins?

What kind of devastating bug is this?

After thinking for a while, I couldn't find an explanation.

Dekan grabbed Chloeux's shoulder.

"How did you get rid of the poison?"

Chloeux seemed unfazed by Dekan's expression, and explained with a wry smile:

"This is because I carry the blessing of the gods—all magical damage caused by me will be converted into healing. And if I use curse magic or poison magic, it will become the corresponding antidote and antidote."

"Such a thing is true..."

Dekan muttered to himself, somewhat lost in thought.

It turns out that Chloex is this kind of unconventional mage.

Dekan thought for a moment and then asked, "Even if the toxin just now was a mixture of two buff states, you were still able to eliminate it?"

"The blessing will be judged based on the outcome."

"..."

Dekan's mood instantly plummeted.

This bug can't be fixed.

This is a hanging.

But then he quickly thought of something else.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Chloeux.

"If you use your special abilities to heal others, they will still feel pain, right?"

"In most cases, that's the case; they have to endure the pain of being directly hit by a spell... so I generally avoid using this trait to heal my companions."

Chloeux seemed to recall some unpleasant memories, and her eyes showed a hint of fear.

Dekan looked at Chloeux, his eyes shining even brighter.

He exclaimed excitedly, "Chloeux, your abilities are amazing! You're practically an angel! I want to team up with you and conquer the Shadow World together!"

"Huh?"

Chloeux's eyes widened in surprise.

He seemed to be wondering if this was a dream.

He never imagined that someone would invite him to explore the Shadow World together again.

Even more unexpectedly, the inviter was Dekan, who has recently been shining brightly.

Chloeux: "Why...?"

Dekan: "Our team just needs a...therapist! You're definitely the best fit for us!"

If they can get Chloex's help, no matter how much Dekan and Cornelia torture the enemy, they will not kill them!

It can cause even more suffering during treatment!

It could even cause the enemy to suffer 60 times the pain of treatment while remaining conscious!

Chloeux is undoubtedly the best candidate to become the interrogator!

"..."

Chloeux remained silent for a long time.

He smiled, seemingly helplessly, but his expression quickly turned bitter as he said:

"No, Dekan, thank you so much for your invitation, but I can't let you down."

"Don't worry, Cornelia and I usually don't need your treatment. You just need to... treat the people who need treatment."

"I'm sorry, I really can't agree to that."

Do you have a regular team?

"No."

"Then our Beautiful Minds Squad is undoubtedly your best choice! Once Cornelia and I reach Tier 4, we can team up."

057 Chloeux's Troubles

Seeing Dekan's sincere gaze, Chloeux couldn't hide the flutter in his eyes for a moment.

But soon he seemed to have made up his mind and gritted his teeth.

“Dekan, I’m willing to help you, except by going to the Shadow World with you. Please don’t consider this anymore.”

Chloeux then firmly closed the door, leaving a bewildered Dekan standing outside.

The last time I was rejected was the last time.

"Ugh."

Dekan sighed.

Although he admired Chloeux, he did not expect the other party to be so resolute in refusing to join their team.

However, mages like Chloex must be quite sought after.

Although healing others is painful, the amount of healing done is probably unmatched by any other healing class.

Dekan walked home alone, carrying some regret.

When he reached the door of his dormitory, he hesitated for a moment with his hand on the doorknob.

He silently turned around and stomped on his own shadow.

"Meow!"

With a familiar meow, Teacher Cat emerged from Dekan's shadow and bounced twice like a spring.

"Your abilities are lacking; you can't even defend against physical attacks."

Dekan chuckled and looked down at the cat teacher on the ground with a mocking expression.

Teacher Cat scratched her head pitifully and said to Dekan:

"...Give me a bottle of that potion, meow."

Dekan burst out laughing upon hearing Teacher Cat's naive words.

He squatted down and unceremoniously grabbed the cat teacher by the scruff of the neck, bringing its line of sight to his own.

Looking into its eyes, he said:

"You already owe me a favor, right? You have to repay the debt of saving you before we can talk about a deal."

"...I can teach you a few magic cats."

"No, learning magic is too troublesome, and it's also difficult to learn spells that don't have good compatibility with your own magic. It's much more convenient to just use spell cards."

"But there's a limit to the number of cards you can carry, meow. It's always good to learn a few more spells."

"My magic attribute is very average, and most spells are not very effective. For me, it's better to hone my card-making skills than to spend time studying magic."

"So what do you want, meow?"

Teacher Cat seems to be prepared to be blackmailed by Dekan.

"Just tell me something about Chloeux."

Teacher Cat was surprised by Dekan's request; this guy didn't take advantage of the situation.

But it hesitated.

"Hmm... what do you want to do to him, meow?"

"Don't worry, I only want him to be my companion. Of course, I won't do anything to harm him or force him. Don't worry."

"Okay, go ahead and ask, meow."

"What puzzles me most is why Chloex had to repeat a grade. It's the first time I've ever seen someone at school with such exaggerated magical abilities."

If Dekan is right, the reason Chloeux lives on the fourth floor is because he repeated a grade.
