The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

Sunday.

The morning sunlight streamed through the curtains into Dekan's living room, casting dappled shadows on the floor.

Dekan closed his eyes, his brows slightly furrowed, and turned over on the sofa to continue sleeping. He had gone to bed too late last night.

Although when they were working on poisons with Mir, they would try to finish before 10 p.m. and go home separately.

But there are always a day or two when they get to the crucial points and lose track of time.

So I had no choice but to stay in the dormitory.

He gave the bed to Mia and slept on the sofa himself.

Mier made no attempt to be polite, treating Dekan's dormitory as her own home.

Dekan felt he wanted to sleep a little longer, but a faint sound had been reaching his ears since earlier.

Mir should be awake by now.

She is even more disciplined than Dekan.

He didn't know how much time had passed when he heard a gentle yet slightly playful voice:

"Thank you, I slept very well last night."

"Alright, alright, you should go now."

Dekan still didn't open his eyes, but he mumbled something.

"You really are stubborn."

Mir sounded a little unhappy, but he couldn't help but smile slyly.

"After all, you always talk like this, so whoever takes it seriously loses."

"Phew, I'm leaving now. You continue to get some rest."

"Take that [Poisonous Spike 3.1] card from the table. I'll be able to make another one on my own soon."

Dekan sat up, rubbed his eyes, and looked at Mier.

Once a blue-quality card has been successfully researched once, it becomes very easy to manufacture in Dekan.

"Oh, okay."

Upon hearing this, Mir chuckled and walked into the card-making workshop, taking away the masterpiece they had successfully developed together the previous night.

【Highly Poisonous Ground Spike 3.1】

[Category: Spell Card]

[Grade: Blue Rare]

[Class: 3]

[Effect: Inflicts a persistent weak poison and bleeding status. This spell can be triggered from a distance, and the poison cannot be cleansed.]

[Note: The current version is 3.1, featuring a brand-new communication toxin that delivers an unparalleled torturous experience! —Developer's Diary.]

"By the way, you're going to the Movie World again next week, right?"

When Mir saw that Dekan was awake, he started chatting with him again.

Dekan asked, "Yeah, do you want to come along?"

Mier said, "No, no, I'm an office worker, I wouldn't go to such a dangerous place. I'm just lamenting that I might not see you for a while."

Although Dekan really wanted to complain, he held back because he remembered that he had said something similar in the past.

As agreed by Dekan and Cornelia, next Wednesday will be the second Shadow World raid for the Beautiful Minds team.

However, since Dekan and Cornelia are only at the third tier, they cannot team up with Chloix, who is at the sixth tier.

According to the rules, teams can only be formed across a maximum of two skill levels.

Otherwise, it could seriously affect the survival rate of other challengers.

Cornelia is not far from reaching the fourth tier, while Dekan still needs some training before he can reach the fourth tier.

They'll probably be able to complete the Shadow World with Chloe before he graduates.

In addition, Dekan promised to take Teacher Cat to the Movie World once.

The duration of a Shadow World is quite random. You might encounter a Shadow World like Demon Academy that can be completed in half a day, or one that lasts for a month or more.

Additionally, there will be a cooldown period after completing the Shadow World challenge, during which you will be rejected by the Shadow World.

If it takes a long time to fight just one Tier 3 Shadow World, the benefits are too low for Dekan and Cornelia.

Then why not bring along a level 5 cat teacher to increase the difficulty of the team?

After Mier left, Dekan was basically sober.

He has another important thing to do today.

Yesterday he saw Cornelia feeding the cats on the back hill again.

This seems to be her most important project this weekend.

Dekan noticed that these past few days, whenever Cornelia saw the cat teacher clinging to Dekan, she couldn't hide the loneliness in her eyes.

After all, even Chloeux gets along very well with Nyanko-sensei.

It was only slightly afraid of Cornelia.

Although Nyanko-sensei is much closer to Cornelia now than he was at the beginning.

But that instinct of fear seemed to be etched into my soul.

The other fairy cats dared not approach Cornelia, and only the cat-attracting potion could get them a little closer.

They are about to head to the Shadow World again.

Moreover, this time it's Dekan Cornelia and Cat Teacher teaming up.

Dekan was worried that Cornelia would become even more depressed in the Shadow World.

So he now has to make a decision.

Should we sacrifice ourselves to make Cornelia feel better?

"A seven-foot-tall man should not turn into a cat."

Dekan shook his head.

So on this sunny Sunday morning, Dekan used the [Transformation: Elf Cat] spell in his dormitory to transform into a noble and elegant light gray elf cat, resembling a Western doll.

"Okay, meow, what can I do? I'm just too kind-hearted."

This feeling of lowering your gaze and feeling light is surprisingly nice.

Strangely, it made Dekan addicted.

This is also why he is somewhat resistant to becoming a cat.

He worried that he might become addicted to this state.

His body felt so light that Dekan felt like he wanted to dance.

Just once, just once...

After letting go of his worries, Dekan hummed a song with his nose and took steps on his nimble four legs.

Everything has changed.

Then I'll just be a good little fairy cat.

Soon, he arrived at the meadow on the back hill.

Bathed in the comforting warmth of the late autumn sun, he finally couldn't resist rolling around a few times on the soft grass.

The gentle breeze was just right.

Ah, this is so pleasant.

Dekan felt a relaxation twice as much as in human form.

Is it really this wonderful to be a fluffy ball?

The drowsiness that had seemed to have disappeared has returned.

When Dekan came to his senses, he had already fallen into a deep sleep.

I don't know how much time has passed.

When Cornelia arrived at the back mountain with cat-attracting potion and cat food, she found a lazy kitten lying on its side under the tree where she usually stayed.

Cornelia hesitated for a moment, but still walked in that direction.

If I'm not mistaken, that little cat will definitely be startled awake by her and run away in a flash.

But as she approached step by step, the kitten did not react at all.

This made her heart beat faster.

072 Dekan's Major Crisis

Cornelia slowed her pace.

At that moment, she looked quite like someone trying to catch a pigeon.

They dared not make too much noise, afraid that if they walked too slowly, they would scare the pigeons away.

She even held her breath.

Is this a miracle?

Or is the kitten sick and has fallen into a coma?

Cornelia couldn't help but have this doubt in her heart.

The thought that the kitten might need rescue made her quicken her pace slightly.

However, when she walked up to the kitten, she inadvertently blocked the sunlight that was originally covering it.

It unconsciously rolled over, scratched its cheek, and continued to sleep soundly.
