For them, successfully using the mimicry magic didn't seem to be difficult; the real problem was safely dispelling the mimicry.

During the mimicry period, they cannot use other magic and can only revert back after the mimicry magic wears off on its own. Therefore, they must carefully measure the amount of magic they use and precisely control the timing before casting the spell.

Occasionally, mistakes happen, and strange situations arise where some parts revert to their original state while others don't.

Clearly, they were just beginning to learn and practice mimicry magic, and didn't quite grasp its secrets.

Thus, the following scenario occurred.

-

"Li Wenyin, we've always gone to and from get out of class together. Why are you suddenly abandoning me? Is it because I'm old and ugly, and you're disgusted with me now?"

"Senior, people change, and you should also learn to be independent."

"Li Wenyin, you weren't like this a few days ago. Back then, we were such good friends..."

"Senior, please have some self-respect and stop pulling me."

At the entrance of their dormitory building, Mu Feng pitifully clung to Li Wenyin's sleeve, refusing to let go. Li Wenyin was determined to abandon him and leave, showing extreme cruelty and heartlessness.

The reason is simple: Mu Feng is an example of someone whose magic usage went wrong, and whose mimicry magic couldn't completely undo the damage.

Because of this, Mu Feng has now returned to human form, but he still retains his cat ears and tail. His big white cat ears are on his head, and his big white tail sways left and right.

Li Wenyin refused to go with him no matter what, saying that she felt it was immoral and disgraceful.

"Senior Mu Feng, this is so strange. When I walk with you, I feel like I'm forcing you to do some weird play. Although I don't really care about how others look at me, I hope this kind of misunderstanding can be avoided as much as possible."

After saying that, she turned and rushed out without looking back.

"No, Li Wenyin."

Mu Feng was on the verge of tears, and stopped Li Wenyin again.

Yu Zhiyuan and Pei Yuan, both second-year students, had already run away. Qin Guanyu had been so busy lately that he was nowhere to be seen. Mu Feng was a talkative person who couldn't stand being alone, so asking him to go to and from get out of class alone was practically asking him to die.

His still-present cat ears and tail were incredibly lifelike, swaying left and right in sync with his emotions.

Li Wenyin actually quite enjoys seeing the cat-themed version of Mu Feng, but since she's going to a general education class now, she feels she should keep some distance from him.

She paused, looking at Mu Feng with a calm yet troubled expression: "Senior, as you know, I've recently decided to turn over a new leaf. I'm afraid they might misunderstand me and drag me away for some kind of ideological education again."

"This isn't against the rules!" Mu Feng protested, stiffening his neck and sticking his tail up as well.

Li Wenyin glanced at his tail twice: "But it's somewhat obscene and erotic..."

"What?! I'm innocent! I've done nothing wrong, it's just that you have a dirty mind and insist on thinking that way..."

Mu Feng was unconvinced and continued to argue with her.

-

Yu Chi Quan stood quietly at the back.

He was rather idle and didn't need to go to class. He often wandered around by himself. At this moment, he quietly walked out of the room and stood behind Mu Feng, quietly watching his fluffy tail swaying up and down.

Out of a little curiosity, Yu Chi Quan watched for a while, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Mu Feng's tail tip with precision.

"Ouch!!! Holy crap! That hurts so much!"

Mu Feng suddenly let out a loud, gruff roar, startling both Li Wenyin and Yu Chiquan.

"There's even pain?" Li Wenyin exclaimed in surprise. "Oh no, this is making things even more arousing, Senior Mu Feng."

"What do you mean 'sore'? I'm speechless, it hurts like hell..."

Mu Feng clutched his butt and hopped forward two steps, bending over in pain and looking back angrily to see who the heinous mastermind was.

"You little brat! Why did you grab my tail?!"

Yu Chi Quan withdrew his raised hand and blinked innocently at the two of them.

This one doesn't need any mimicry; it's naturally a mischievous little cat that makes a mistake but pretends to be innocent.

"sorry."

There doesn't seem to be any particular reason; I just saw it moving and grabbed it.

Seeing that Mu Feng was about to get angry, Yu Chiquan went around to hide behind Li Wenyin, gently hugged her hand, and whimpered softly, "...Senior."

Li Wenyin knew that she was about to be deceived by the emperor again.

He's a bit naughty, but he looks really cute.

-

The final result was that Li Wenyin and Mu Feng worked together to figure out how to get Mu Feng to attend class in a dignified manner.

Yi Liwenyin's idea was to put a hat on him to cover his ears and tuck his tail into his pants.

As for the results... the ears are fine, but once the tail is tucked in, it looks like an overly perky butt.

It's still that kind of perky, bouncy butt that moves and sways.

give up.

The second method was to have Mu Feng wear an invisibility cloak.

Mu Feng was the one among them who disliked wearing the invisibility cloak the most. He would die if he wasn't noticed for a moment, and he felt uncomfortable all over if no one saw him.

However, compared to having a perky butt, he still chose the invisibility cloak.

What a wonderful morning!

-

During recess, in the corridor of the public teaching building.

Even though the classroom was large and bright, Li Wenyin couldn't help but come to the corridor to "get some fresh air," as if this could relieve the boredom and suffocation she felt while studying the introduction to magic.

Then she overheard some gossip.

"Did you know what happened at the Kokuyoin cafeteria recently?"

"What? What? You mean...that?"

"I should be saying the same thing to you!"

"What is it? Tell me quickly! I'm so anxious!"

"I have a friend who goes to Kokuyoin High School, and I heard that someone recently died from eating in their cafeteria!"

"What?! They ate dead people? Really? That's terrible! I haven't heard anything from the student council!"

"Isn't the annual cafeteria evaluation coming up soon? They're probably deliberately keeping the news quiet..."

Li Wenyin looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of students from Canghai Academy and Oak Academy gathered there.

She frowned: "How can you spread rumors? I'm a student at Obsidian Academy, I didn't know anything about this, but do you know, Senior Mu Feng?"

"Nonsense! I've never heard of this. All I know is that the food is terrible. Pei Yuan and Senior Sister have been to the cafeteria these past few days, and they never mentioned anything about this!" Mu Feng's voice came from somewhere unseen nearby.

Li Wenyin also disliked it. These days, Qin Guanyu was also working part-time in the cafeteria, and she didn't really want any bad rumors to spread about the Obsidian Academy cafeteria at this time.

She had a sudden inspiration and secretly told Mu Feng a little trick to teach someone a lesson.

-

The students got really into gossip, each one adding their own comment, making the baseless rumors sound even more alarming and frightening, and the more they talked, the more they believed it.

Just then, a cat-like figure quietly crept up to them...

"Hey! Ha!"

Two thunderous roars from the flat ground startled the four or five students, who immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

Their faces were ashen as they tried to find the source of the sound, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't see it. When they asked, they all said they hadn't shouted it themselves.

When they cautiously gathered around again, they saw several white cat hairs lying on the ground, their origin unknown, which only amplified their fear.

In broad daylight, a ghost story is being told openly.

-

After giving her a lecture, Mu Feng returned to Li Wenyin's side with a grin.

"That felt great!"

"I bet they'll be talking about the mysterious cat ghost everywhere after this," Li Wenyin thought for a moment. "Sigh, they haven't let Pei Yuan down after all; it's become another campus ghost story."

"Let them talk," Mu Feng said smugly. "Being one of the campus ghost stories is my honor. Let them tarnish our college with empty words."

"Hmm..."

Li Wenyin pondered to herself, "It seems it's time to properly investigate the matter of the Obsidian Academy's cafeteria."

-

After class, Li Wenyin and Mu Feng split up. Mu Feng couldn't stand wandering around in the invisibility cloak anymore. He wanted to study and practice this mimicry magic properly and quickly get rid of the cat ears and tail.

Li Wenyin went to the cafeteria.

She packed up and took away the first dish from the Kokuyoin cafeteria that day: herring and pickled chestnuts.

It's worth mentioning that she made a point of going into the cafeteria and taking a look around, but she couldn't find Qin Guanyu anywhere. She figured he must be in the kitchen or something, so she didn't linger.

What does it feel like to hold a box of pickled herring and chestnuts? Li Wenyin thinks it's probably similar to holding a bomb.

Even though it was sealed very tightly, that indescribable smell could still seep out from the gaps, enter her nose, and rush straight to the top of her head.

Li Wenyin herself dared not taste it. Putting aside whether it was poisonous or deadly, just the taste that her seniors had mentioned made Li Wenyin very afraid that she would vomit on the spot.

But she really wanted to know if there was anything wrong with the food at Kokuyoin, so she needed to find someone willing to eat it, unafraid of poison, and with a relatively sensitive sense of smell and taste...

-

"Let me eat this?"

In the lobby of the student council building, Ruiyuan calmly looked at Li Wenyin.

His face was expressionless, and he was kneeling on the ground, trying to wipe the stains from the corners of the student council building.

"Yes, yes, tell me whatever you feel." Li Wenyin squatted down in front of him, put the box of pickled herring and chestnuts on the ground, and moved it over.

Ruiyuan stared silently at the dark box on the ground, its contents completely obscured.

"Okay."

Remembering that Li Wenyin still had his right to use it, he opened the transparent plastic box without hesitation, picked up a lump with chopsticks without changing his expression, and stuffed it into his mouth.

After chewing for a while, he swallowed it without changing his expression.

next moment.

Ruiyuan collapsed to the ground.

"Holy crap, no way! Ruiyuan, what happened to you?!" Li Wenyin exclaimed in shock. "Ruiyuan, did I poison you? Are you alright? You...?"

Oh no, is this food really poisonous?!

After a while, Ruiyuan shakily got up, squatted down with difficulty, and clutched his stomach.

"Is it... is it poisonous?" Li Wenyin asked cautiously.

"good......"

Ruiyuan's lips trembled as he struggled to squeeze out the words.

Li Wenying eagerly replied, "It seems so? Should I go find the medical department for you?"

Ruiyuan: "This tastes awful..."

Li Wenyin: "..."

Such power that it forced Ruiyuan into this state. Fortunately, Li Wenyin didn't try it herself out of curiosity.

-

After waiting for a while, Li Wenyin sat cross-legged in front of him and asked carefully, "Besides being unpalatable, is it poisonous?"

She knew that Ruiyuan had an incredible self-healing speed and shouldn't be too afraid of poison, which is why she came to find him.

In addition, she knew that Ruiyuan had eaten the corpse of the King of the Beak, and thought that no matter how bad it tasted, he shouldn't have a strong reaction. Unexpectedly, it actually made him sick.

This must be incredibly powerful, comparable to a vicious magical weapon.

"It's not poisonous," Ruiyuan said calmly, shaking his head. "It just tastes bad."

Li Wenyin asked again, "So, are you able to detect poison in food? When was the last time?"

"Yes, it was when we ate the carcass of that bird or beast," Ruiyuan replied. "Vice President Zhou placed a restriction and poison on that bird or beast."

"oh......"

Li Wenyin understood.

No wonder Ruiyuan only used potions and refused to use spells when he fought Yu Lanxie later. In fact, he was easily captured by Yu Lanxie, who was a first-year student, even though he was only a fifth-year student. When he fought with the student council, he didn't use any magic. He just randomly splattered blood to control people.

It turns out that Vice President Zhou had tricked him all along by poisoning the corpse of King Ehuyu. No wonder.

Li Wenyin remembered that he was injured on both occasions when he supposedly "returned to the dormitory". The first time he was injured was because he was attacked by the Evil-Beak Feather King in the Monster Forest. The second time was probably before the academy competition, when he ate a poisoned corpse and was seriously injured.

"So, you're saying," Li Wenyin examined the plate of black, unidentified matter on the ground, "that you can be sure it's not poisonous, just that it tastes bad?"

"It's confirmed." Ruiyuan nodded.

Li Wenyin remained silent, staring at the box.

What could have caused the food at Kokuyoin Cafeteria to suddenly become so unpalatable...?

-

The two of them were huddled in a corner, and before they could reach a conclusion, another person quietly approached.

"Um, excuse me..." came a weak male voice.

Li Wenyin looked up and saw Vice President Zhou standing timidly in front of them, his eyes filled with tears, and he was breathing and speaking very nervously.

"I...I heard someone say that there's a...strange smell here. Could you please not eat here... Waaaaah, don't look at me! It's so scary!"

Before Zhou Mixuan could finish speaking, she was so frightened by Ruiyuan's calmly raised eyes that she took several steps back.

Li Wenyin: "..."

I was just thinking to myself how handsome you are.

Ruiyuan: "..."

Even though he rarely experiences emotional fluctuations now, he still couldn't help but have some doubts in his mind.

Who exactly is scaring people? He asked.
