There's Absolutely No Problem With The Magic Cards I Made! Chapter 55 - Dekan Found A Cat

Cornelia's eyelashes trembled lightly, as if she sensed something.

She turned her head, her eyes showing a hint of surprise.

Dekan hadn't approached yet, but Cornelia had already noticed him.

Dekan smiled and called out to her, "Hi!"

Cornelia responded, "Hello!"

Dekan quickened his pace, jogging over to her, and asked, "A cat?"

"Um..."

Cornelia's mood seemed somewhat downcast as she nodded.

Dekan grinned, "I'll help."

"Huh?"

Without dwelling on Cornelia's slightly bewildered expression, Dekan walked toward this group of elven cats.

It seemed that this group of cats had no sense of wariness towards Dekan.

He picked up the bowl of cat food and walked in the direction away from Cornelia.

Gradually, he noticed that elven cats began to follow him; they all wanted some fish treats.

The kittens were not afraid of him at all; he exuded a friendly aura.

Then he placed the bowl on the ground, picked up one of the elven cats, and fed it a piece of fish.

"Meow~"

After the kitten finished eating and was satisfied, Dekan started to tease its lower jaws. He was quite skilled in stimulating the cat’s pleasure spots and was even making a rhythmic sound as he caressed the kitten. It was like he was cradling the cat asleep.

Gradually, the kitten started falling to the ground.

Truth was, he secretly used a moment of "Hypnosis Gas" but held his breath.

Soon, the kitten fell asleep.

Next, Dekan carried the kitten back to Cornelia.

Cornelia looked at the kitten in Dekan's hands with excitement and licked her lips.

Cornelia: "Touch?" (Can I touch it?)

Dekan: "Yes."

Cornelia trembled as she extended her hand, feeling a sense of excitement as if a long-cherished wish was about to come true.

However, at that moment, the kitten suddenly woke up, its fur standing on end.

It frantically struggled out of Dekan's grasp.

Then, in a state of shock, it sprinted away and disappeared.

"...Looks like I'll have to completely sedate it," Dekan muttered, chin in hand.

"No!" Cornelia hastily waved her hands.

Although she was grateful to Dekan, she didn't want this kind of deceitful behavior towards the kittens.

She wanted to genuinely harmonize with these cute creatures.

"Let me think."

Dekan sat down beside Cornelia, leaned against a tree, and started pondering.

Since he had decided to help her, he would help to the end.

Dekan: "What are your plans for this afternoon?"

Cornelia: "Nothing."

She intended to take a nap under this tree in the afternoon.

Dekan: "Wait for me."

Cornelia: "Okay."

After saying that, Dekan stood up and walked away quickly.

He went to the store and bought a variety of herbs, then returned to his dormitory to start brewing potions.

Initially, the most important use of the "Extremely Poisonous Spikes" he developed was for hunting.

It was to obtain magic cores from magical beasts.

In order to better capture wild animals, he had also once mixed scents to attract them.

If he could make the cats more tempted, perhaps it could offset their fear of Cornelia.

This way, Cornelia could smoothly interact with the kittens.

Although he hadn't brought the beast-attracting scents from the border to the capital, making them wasn't difficult.

Moreover, he had brought back plenty of ingredients from Mielle.

In this way, he quickly prepared the "Cat-enticing Elixir."

After mixing it, Dekan returned to the hill with a small vial.

He sat next to Cornelia and opened the vial.

As the fragrance wafted out, the group of elven cats rushed toward Dekan as if going crazy.

However, they were still afraid of Cornelia and didn't dare to approach too closely.

It was as if there was an invisible boundary on the ground that they wouldn't cross.

Dekan sprinkled some of the potion near Cornelia.

Although the elven cats were still afraid of her, gradually, some of the bolder ones ventured closer and sniffed from a distance.

At the slightest movement from Cornelia, they would be frightened and retreat.

Cornelia remained still, almost turning into a statue.

Finally, a kitten was willing to approach her a little, even though Cornelia still couldn't touch them.

At least she could observe them up close.

In the end, Cornelia had a pleasant afternoon.

"Thank you."

"No need to thank me. I'll make more of this potion for you later," Dekan handed the vial to Cornelia.

She graciously accepted Dekan's half-full vial of potion.

After having dinner together, as usual, the two returned to their respective dormitories on the third floor.

However.

Dekan didn't notice.

As he left the back hill, a black elven cat stealthily crept into his shadow...

...

After returning to the dormitory, Dekan decided to tidy up the living room first.

Although his dorm was very clean.

He didn't want to lose to Mielle in cleanliness.

Occasionally, Dekan would have a strange sense of competitiveness.

However, while he was cleaning…

"Clang, clang."

He heard the sound of bottles and jars being knocked over, so he hurriedly ran into the card-making workshop.

He had never thought that there would be thieves in the dormitory.

"Meow—"

When he opened the door.

He saw a black elven cat writhing in pain on the floor.

It seemed like it wanted to get its paws on Dekan's cat-attracting elixir, or even the recipe for it.

So, greedily, it tasted a few of the jars that Dekan had left on the table.

It seemed like it was a habitual thief cat.

"What in the world is wrong with you?" Dekan quickly picked up the kitten.

"Ugh, I'm going to die, I'm going to die, meow. Clearly, they're not toxic but why am I poisoned?! Meow!"

The kitten made a rather disdainful meow.

"You can speak?"

"Of course! I'm a teacher, meow!"

"Would a teacher sneak into a student's dormitory?"

"...Meow, meow, meow."

It seemed like Dekan had hit a nerve, and the cat started playing dumb.

"This is really giving me a headache."

Dekan covered his forehead.

"Quickly help me detoxify, meow, it's so painful, meow!"

"...This poison can't be detoxified."

"Meow, meow, meow? Can't purification magic remove it?"

"It can't."

"How is that possible? What kind of horrifying thing did you create, meow?!"

It suddenly remembered a word that had been circulating in the school recently - "inhuman."

The person in front of it was probably the one who brought this term into circulation.

"So, what about the antidote, meow?!"

"My research partner might have it. But it's for humans, and I'm not sure if it would work for cats. You'll have to wait while we develop a solution."

"Help me, meow!"

Although this toxin wouldn't threaten its life for the time being, it was incredibly painful.

"Cat, do you know where to find someone with a 'Forced Dispel' spell card? This card can save you."

'Forced Dispel' is a tier 6 spell card.

Usually, only teachers would have it.

Coincidentally, it was the weekend.

Apart from the teachers on duty, most of the teachers were not at school.

And among the students who had just entered their third year, Dekan wasn't sure if anyone had reached tier 6.

"Go find Croix! He has that card!" The cat teacher exclaimed as if it had found a savior.
