Magical Cat

"Aren't you curious about the contents of this book?"

Melina asked with a smile, as if the book were some kind of treasure.

Li En dared not say "no" and could only nod silently against his will.

Seeing that Li En was quite sensible, Melina smiled and opened the book.

The book was written in magical script, which Li En had seen in the library before, but for some reason, he couldn't understand the contents of this book.

This suited him perfectly, since who knew what Melina was going to show him?

Lee Eun is a pure and innocent kitten. What if Melina shows her something inappropriate for children, or even something that is strictly prohibited and illegal?

He immediately smiled and honestly shook his head, saying, "I can't read, I can't understand."

Li En had read in a book that magical beasts his age were all illiterate and couldn't understand magical texts, which made perfect sense.

The thought of having such a perfect excuse made Li En feel incredibly pleased, and she almost couldn't help but laugh.

"You can't expect a juvenile magical beast to understand magical writing, can you?"

Just as Li En was having a good time, Melina said with a grin, "It's okay, I'll teach you, it's very simple."

Now Li En doesn't have to hold back her laughter anymore.

"No, is this something that's easy to learn?" Li En wondered.

He read in a book that even some less intelligent magical beasts can become illiterate when they reach their fully evolved form.

Thinking of this, Li En's eyes lit up, and she decided to put on a good show of sweetness.

"This magical text is a bit special. You just need to use the same method you used to control Elaine's body to scan the text on it."

You did a great job just now, you can do it again.

Despite Melina's high expectations, Lee's plan to use candy had to come to nothing.

……

An hour later.

Elaine awoke from her slumber, and after Melina examined her, she was escorted out of her office.

"Teacher, thank you so much for troubling me today," Elaine said apologetically.

She hadn't expected to fall asleep from exhaustion, leaving Teacher Melina waiting for him for an hour in vain.

"It's alright. As long as you successfully sign the contract, your teacher will be happy. Go back and get some rest. If you have any questions these next few days, feel free to ask me."

Melina maintained her image as a good teacher.

At this point, Elaine had a question: "Teacher, is he alright?"

Elaine looked at Lee En, whom she was holding in her arms, as she spoke.

Li En was listless and dispirited, and occasionally gagged, looking very uncomfortable.

Elaine remembered that Li En wasn't like this just now, but when she woke up, she was in this state, as if she had been severely tortured.

"Oh, this."

There's absolutely no problem. Li En is just too tired. This is a common reaction for magical beasts after completing a contract.

If you're still worried, bring him to me more often, and I'll give him a thorough check-up.

Melina smiled so much that her eyes narrowed into two small crescent moons.

Upon hearing this, Li En couldn't help but shudder, as if recalling some terrible experience, and didn't even dare to look at Melina.

He had just been forced by Melina to memorize the entire contents of that book.

He memorized all the contents of that book, "The Self-Cultivation Notes of a Magical Beast (Beginner's Edition)".

The magical text in that book was highly suspicious; it could only be read through mind control, a skill acquired through a contract.

Moreover, unlike magical texts which merely transfer information into the mind, this reading method actually engraves the text content directly into the brain.

Li En can now see every word on a book as easily as turning the pages when he closes his eyes.

This magical script is obviously more efficient than ordinary magical script, but the cost is also considerable.

At this moment, Li En's head was throbbing with pain, which was a clear symptom of excessive mental exertion. He even felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

But after memorizing the contents of that book, Li En was certain of one thing.

The content in the book is indeed fine; it's just a summary of various methods and experiences for cultivating magical beasts, and there's nothing harmful about it.

But the more this happened, the more curious Li En became about Melina's motives.

At this point, Elaine, not wanting to bother Ms. Melina any longer, bid farewell and left.

They arrived in the evening, and after completing the contract ceremony and various unexpected events, it was already late at night.

Fortunately, they are all within the Royal Magic Academy, so they are not too far apart.

Melina saw Li En and Elaine off, then closed the door.

She leaned against the door, a look of complete satisfaction on her face, and murmured softly, "The Dragon Lord will surely be very pleased with this gift of mine!"

……

After returning to her dormitory, Elaine washed up and prepared to go to sleep.

She was originally supposed to meditate with Li En that evening.

But the exhausted Li En had already fallen into a deep sleep; she herself was quite tired.

Moreover, after completing the contract, Elaine felt a huge weight lifted from her heart, and she felt much more relaxed.

She had been meditating every night to provide Li En with enough magic so that they could renew the contract as soon as possible.

Otherwise, she was really afraid that Li En would end up like in the book, losing all her magic and then disappearing and dying.

Fortunately, such a thing will not happen again.

After the contract was signed, Li En became her official magical beast.

Thinking of this, Elaine, having finished washing up, approached the bamboo basket where Li En was sleeping, then leaned down and gently kissed Li En's head.

Goodnight, Lee Eun.

After saying goodnight, Elaine turned off the light, climbed into bed, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Hearing Elaine's soft, even breathing, Li En quietly opened his eyes.

My brain still throbs a little, but it's much better than before.

Despite being physically and mentally exhausted, Lee En still couldn't fall asleep.

He closed his eyes again, and the panel appeared first.

[Talent: Skill Certification]

Passive Skill: Magic Perception (Silver)

[Special: Dragon Lord's Heart-to-Heart Contract (Silver)]

There was only one more line on the panel, but it made Li En go through so much.

Li En obtained the passive skill "Magic Perception" with ease.

But this contract...

"It seems like I'm involved in some really troublesome mission." Lee En's head throbbed even more.

Then, he began to slowly read the contents of the notebook.

Li En simply memorized all the content and could refer to it at any time, but he didn't really understand it.

The notes begin by briefly introducing the fundamental principle of magical beast growth and evolution: the accumulation of magic power.

Magical beasts need to continuously increase their magic power limit and then learn various skills to enhance their combat power.

Sufficient magic power and skills can create a powerful magical beast.

The methods for making magical beasts stronger are explained in detail later on, providing a comprehensive overview.

"So, Melina wants me to keep getting stronger by following the instructions in this notebook?"

After reading the opening, Lee En's headache worsened.

He immediately stopped reading, but the panel in his mind reacted.

[Task: Master a spell]

[Time Limit: 24 hours]

[Reward: Active Skill (Silver)]

[Punishment: Visual]
