Magical Cat

"His magical power is indeed extraordinary; it's almost on par with that of a first-year student."

Cobra placed his hands around Li En, examining the magic within him.

"The elemental affinity is also very high, no wonder they found me here last night."

The more carefully Cobra examined the situation, the more he discovered Lee's unusual behavior.

"Is the person who abandoned you a fool?"

After examining Lee En, Cobra couldn't help but have the same question.

Logically speaking, students who have the confidence to abandon magical beasts and then incubate them should come from families with good financial conditions.

With Li En's talent, there's absolutely no reason to misjudge him.

After thinking for a long time, Brian couldn't think of any other possibility besides concluding that "Weber is an idiot".

"Are students these days really that bad? Does the academy just accept any noble with magical talent?"

"Even though there are fewer children now, we can't tarnish the reputation of the Royal Magic Academy."

Brian almost questioned his existence, but in the end he still blamed the college's admissions quality.

"Your commoner master's luck is truly unparalleled."

Having lived most of his life, Corbyn naturally understood that this kind of luck was the most powerful talent.

Corbyn also remembered Elaine, an outstanding student supported by a poor family.

He was well aware that his lectures were boring, but he had never seen Elaine doze off in front of him.

"Sigh, students sponsored by ordinary people are always the biggest variable in the college."

After completing the examination, Kobryan couldn't help but sigh.

Then, he stared at Li En, who was still clutching the flowerpot, and became troubled.

After examining Li En's magic, he believed Melina's words.

Li En probably really does have the ability to grow on its own, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to develop magic comparable to a first-year student in just a few days of incubation.

Seeing Brian's astonishment, Li En couldn't help but glance at his own little belly.

"It's not that high, it's only increased by three points in all these years."

Li En gave the naive and shrewish Kao Brian a disdainful look.

As the saying goes, the more ignorant you are, the more confident you are!

Li En hadn't read many books, which was why he could look down on Brian's surprise.

He didn't even consider that many students in Elaine's class had only this level of magic.

They studied for many years and even attended a full semester of classes.

But what about Lee Eun?

He has only been hatched for a short time, and I haven't seen him cultivate very diligently every day, yet he has already reached this level of magical power.

If the underachieving students in the class found out, they'd probably be contemplating suicide.

What Corbyn is now struggling with is how to incorporate Lee En's capacity for self-growth into his own life seed.

Only by taking root and sprouting like a real seed can Corbyn remove the word "counterfeit".

"First, I need to figure out how this little guy grows on his own."

"Only by understanding the underlying principles can I hope to replicate it."

Once Corbyn understood his next task, he realized it was a long-term project that couldn't be solved overnight.

During the inspection, he also discovered that Li En's magic power was increasing at a very slow rate; the change was barely observable in just a few minutes.

"Melina's experimental project might be a good starting point."

Brian muttered to himself.

This is his habit when he engages in deep thinking.

Li En also quietly pricked up his ears at this moment.

Just as Melina had predicted, Corbyn did indeed take the bait.

Melina wants to obtain Corbrain's technology, while Corbrain is researching imitations of the Seed of Life. Li En thinks the reasons behind this are probably not simple.

Melina had told him before that the Seed of Life could grow into the Tree of Life, and the Tree of Life could nurture the Elf race.

Researching such a massive topic suggests that Brian's ambitions are likely quite ambitious.

But none of these are currently on Li En's mind.

All he wanted was to complete the mission, get the reward, and become stronger as quickly as possible.

Lee En discovered that the world was much bigger than he had imagined.

After all, there are not only humans, but also races like elves and kemonomimi (animal-eared girls).

If he doesn't go and witness it with his own eyes, wouldn't his cat life have been wasted?

Looking forward to this bright future, Li En couldn't help but grin foolishly, sucking even harder at the flowerpot.

……

"Hey, it's already dawn, aren't you leaving yet?"

Cobra urged him to put the cover on the flowerpot.

Li En held onto the flowerpot tightly, using her body to block it.

He hasn't had enough yet, why is he leaving?

He is a kitten; he doesn't have to go to work or attend classes.

As for you, old man, go wherever you want.

Cat Lord's mission has a time limit, you know?

[Quest: Absorb the magic power of the Seed of Life replica (11.6/25)]

[Time Limit: 2 days]

[Reward: Skill Enhancement]

[Punishment: Stop the development of both spirit orbs]

The time limit on the task panel has been reduced from three days to two days.

Li En didn't care about any of that; he just wanted to keep inhaling until the mission was completely completed.

When Brian saw that Lee was completely disobedient, he immediately resorted to force.

He was, after all, a powerful mage. With a slight movement of his hands, he separated Li En from the flowerpot containing the Seed of Life.

Li En floated in mid-air, his limbs moving wildly, and his tail spiraling like a helicopter.

But this still couldn't bring him closer to the flowerpot.

He could only watch helplessly as Corbyn put the flowerpot back on.

The next moment, the flowerpot seemed to be under a spell, disappearing in a flash, leaving Li En unable to sense the aura of the Seed of Life.

Li En started howling and rolling around on the ground.

But Corbyn remained unmoved.

"I'm telling you, you are not allowed to approach the Seed of Life without my supervision."

"If you want to continue, come find me early tonight."

Then, without waiting for Li En's consent, Corbyn used magic to control him, and with a few flashes, threw him back to Elaine's room, then disappeared without a trace.

Just then, Elaine rubbed her eyes and got out of bed.

She saw Li En slumped over the table, yawned, and greeted her, "Li En, you're awake already? Good morning, hehe..."

Looking at Elaine's adorable, slightly dazed expression as she greeted him, Li En couldn't help but feel happy and responded with a few meows.

"There are still two days left. Although the time is a bit tight, finishing shouldn't be a problem."

After checking the task panel, Li En could only accept this reality.

After all, the Seed of Life belongs to someone else; if he doesn't get to absorb it, there's not much he can do.

Of course, the main problem is that there is a huge gap in strength between Lee En and Cobra.

He must protect Lingwan!

You absolutely must claim the mission rewards!

He's just an old geezer; there must be other ways.

Time was too tight, and Li En felt completely insecure.

He planned to continue harassing Cobra during the day.

Anyway, he remembered that this old man didn't really like teaching.

Yes, how many people actually enjoy going to work?

Going to work is like going to a funeral; that's the norm.
