“…Tsk, of course not. Go up and take a look!” Koizumi Akako replied, “Because the books here are all handwritten copies passed down through generations of my family, you are not allowed to take them away. If you have any questions while memorizing them, you can come and ask me directly.”

"Oh……"

Lin Xiaofeng almost asked questions like, "Why don't you buy a printer to print more copies of such important books? And why use candles in a place like this? Aren't you worried about a sudden fire?"

However, to avoid upsetting the teacher who was younger than him, Lin Xiaofeng remained silent.

As this was Lin Xiaofeng's first foray into the world of magic, there was simply too much he didn't understand.

Over the course of two hours, he practically made Hongzi regret taking on this student.

But even though she regretted it, Hongzi had no intention of giving up.

After all, there are very few magicians in this world.

Lin Xiaofeng was the first magician she had ever met outside of her own family.

As for why the number of magicians has become so small, according to ancient records, the main reason is the witch hunts of that time, coupled with people's fear of unknown forces, which led to the extinction of most family lines.

So much so that by his father's generation, there were no more magicians from other families.

Because her mother was an ordinary person, she almost didn't inherit the Red Family's magic.

Later, her grandfather transferred his magical talent to her, which barely allowed it to continue.

The reason she favors Kaito Kuroba so much.

Besides the fact that the other party was the first person who could ignore her charm, it was also because of the other party's superb magic skills.

That's almost like magic.

If she were to have a child with Kaito Kuroba, the child would definitely have a higher probability of inheriting magical aptitude than a child born to her with someone else.

However, Kaito Kuroba is no longer the best candidate to continue the family line.

Koizumi Akako glanced at Lin Xiaofeng, who was still engrossed in his book, with a conflicted look in her eyes, and sighed silently to herself.

The person in front of me undoubtedly has a higher aptitude for magic than I do.

To be able to use magic with such power without any guidance is top-tier even among her ancestors.

If the child is born with him, the probability of inheriting magical talent suddenly increases from one-quarter of Kaito Kuroba's chances to three-quarters.

The remaining quarter is because they might be dragging things down on their own.

After all, Koizumi Akako was talented, but her talent was transferred from her grandfather.

Dangdang...

The knocking on the door snapped Koizumi Akako out of her reverie.

Looking up, I saw my own butler bringing me black tea.

"Miss, Mr. Lin, please have a cup of tea first." The butler's smile was slightly unsettling.

"Does he also know magic?" After the butler left, Lin Xiaofeng turned to Koizumi Akako and asked.

“No, he has neither the qualifications nor the talent.” Koizumi Akako shook her head and replied, “It’s just that his family has been my butlers for generations, and he has a strong memory. He can help me serve tea and water and pick up magical materials on a daily basis, so he became my butler.”

Lin Xiaofeng wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Koizumi Akako's gaze was a little too fierce when she was drinking tea.

But there wasn't much time to think about it.

Today's class is almost over.

It would be better to take this opportunity to ask yourself questions about things you don't understand.

After Lin Xiaofeng left the Koizumi house, Koizumi Akako returned to the basement.

"How are the preparations going?" Koizumi Akako asked the butler who was already standing next to the pot.

"Everything is ready," the butler replied, taking out the teacup that Lin Xiaofeng had used earlier from behind him.

"Alright, let's begin then." As Koizumi Akako finished speaking, a raging fire suddenly burst into flames beneath the pot.

The housekeeper seized the opportunity and threw the cup into the large pot.

They intend to use this method to test Lin Xiaofeng's magical aptitude.

"Is it just my imagination? You seem a little distracted while studying today?" Koizumi Akako asked suddenly, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed as she stared at Lin Xiaofeng.

"It's probably because I didn't sleep well last night," Lin Xiaofeng blinked and replied. "After all, it's the weekend, so I went to bed a little late."

"Heh, do you think I believe you or not?" Koizumi Akako rolled her eyes, then unceremoniously pulled a crystal ball from the cabinet next to her. "Since you're unwilling to answer directly, I'll just use a little cheating."

"Huh? Wait a minute, do we really need to use divination tools?" Lin Xiaofeng's face turned a little pale.

"Of course I'll use it! After all, it's a matter of my dignity as a teacher!" Koizumi Akako replied proudly, raising her head.

No, so what does this have to do with your dignity?

Lin Xiaofeng had a bellyful of complaints he couldn't vent.

After reciting a few incantations, Koizumi Akako's gaze suddenly froze as she looked at the crystal ball.

Immediately afterwards, her face turned increasingly red, like the bottom of a kettle boiling over.

The next moment, Koizumi Akako swept the crystal ball away.

"Unclean!"

"...No way? You actually saw what happened yesterday with that crystal ball?" Lin Xiaofeng asked Koizumi Akako in astonishment.

"Shut up! You filthy bastard whose mind is filled with nothing but that kind of thing!" Koizumi Akako glared at Lin Xiaofeng, trying to look fierce.

"How can you say that? It's just a normal thing to do when human nature takes over," Lin Xiaofeng muttered.

"Shut up! You're forbidden from speaking again today!" Koizumi Akako pointed her finger at Lin Xiaofeng, and Lin Xiaofeng immediately felt as if his upper and lower lips and teeth were tied together by something, unable to separate.

"That's so unfair! You insisted on watching it and wouldn't listen to my advice, so why are you punishing me?"

Naive, does that mean you can't speak if you can't open your mouth?

Don't you know how convenient ventriloquism is?

"Shut up! Shut up! If you say another word, I'll make you lose all memory of the past two days!" Koizumi Akako's eyes started to glow red.

"Okay, I won't say anymore!" Lin Xiaofeng immediately raised his hands, making a gesture of surrender.

Although he couldn't speak, he could still write, so Lin Xiaofeng could only ask Koizumi Akako questions by writing when he encountered something he didn't understand.

This caused a significant drop in efficiency.

Finally, Koizumi Akako was the first to lose patience and directly released Lin Xiaofeng from his restraints.

But after releasing her from this restraint, she casually made a threatening remark to Lin Xiaofeng.

"If you dare to say anything unrelated to the topic, I will erase your memory."

For the first time, Lin Xiaofeng realized how important magic techniques like 'brain imprisonment' used to protect memories were.

Unfortunately, this was unrelated to the topic he had been studying recently, so Lin Xiaofeng didn't dare to ask any more questions.

The materials used to make magical items and potions are not expensive.

In fact, the vast majority of them are things that can be seen everywhere.

The key is still the proportions of these materials and the amount of magic used in the refining process.

After studying under Koizumi Akako for a while, it was finally time for Lin Xiaofeng to make a set of magical materials himself.

"Go ahead and try it without worry, I'll be right behind you and support you!" Koizumi Akako, dressed in her newly made witch outfit, stood confidently at the top of the stairs and looked at Lin Xiaofeng.

Lin Xiaofeng, however, felt that she looked like she was ready to turn around and run away at any moment.

First, you have to boil a pot of green, viscous, unidentified liquid.

As one inedible item after another was thrown into the large pot, and the once clear liquid began to turn green, Lin Xiaofeng couldn't help but swallow hard.

The somewhat pungent smell made him want to vomit.

"Hang in there! Once you get through this first time, things will go much smoother from here on out," Koizumi Akako continued to encourage Lin Xiaofeng.

"Hongzi, could you please get me a mask?" Lin Xiaofeng called out, covering his nose.

"...Wait here, I'll go get it for you right away."

Koizumi Akako's response made Lin Xiaofeng relax a little.

After putting on a mask, the pungent smell was reduced significantly.

It's time to add some unidentified objects again.

Looking at the bubbles that kept bursting on the green, viscous liquid, Lin Xiaofeng got goosebumps.

"Stir! Pay attention to the timing of stirring!" Seeing that Lin Xiaofeng still didn't seem to be reaching for the long stick next to the pot, Koizumi Akako couldn't help but remind him, "And the magic power you need to inject while stirring!"

Lin Xiaofeng did as instructed.

Once the last ingredient was thrown into the pot, all Lin Xiaofeng had left to do was stir it, add his own magic, and wait for it to solidify.

If this attempt is successful, Lin Xiaofeng will obtain the most important material for making the magic wand.

Flying solo will no longer be a dream then.

After stirring continuously for half an hour, Koizumi Akako finally told Lin Xiaofeng to stop.

"The program is basically correct, but whether it will ultimately succeed is uncertain." After all, Koizumi Akako has never made materials for a magic wand before.

"So now we can only wait for it to take shape?" Lin Xiaofeng asked, looking at the pot with some excitement.

"Well, we can only wait." Koizumi Akako nodded. "Perfect timing. While it's still taking shape, I'll take you for a spin so you can get a feel for it."

"Huh? Do I have to ride a broom?" Lin Xiaofeng's face showed a look of resistance.

"Shut up!" Koizumi Akako glared directly at Lin Xiaofeng. "This is your only chance to master the feeling of flying!"

"Even if you beg me to carry you from now on, I won't!"

Koizumi Akako's residence is located deep in the mountains, with no other houses nearby.

The forests in this area are all her family's private property.

So flying here, you don't have to worry about being seen at all.

"Ugh—my first flight was actually sitting on a broom..." Lin Xiaofeng looked at the long broom in Koizumi Akako's hand, and the resentment on his face made Koizumi Akako furious.

574. If you can ride a broom, why not a flying sword?

"Hongzi, is this really okay? Won't it hurt your butt and groin?" Lin Xiaofeng asked, pointing to the thin broom.

"...Idiot! Couldn't you just use magic to create a cushion under your butt?!" Koizumi Akako glared at Lin Xiaofeng, her face slightly flushed as she scolded, "What on earth is going on in your head?!"

That's what they said, but when Lin Xiaofeng sat down behind Koizumi Akako, he still felt a sense of trepidation.

You can't maintain your balance while sitting on this thing.

Once suspended in mid-air, it will almost certainly rotate 180 degrees and end up upside down.

"What are you still standing there for? Put your arms around my waist, or are you planning to end up headfirst when we fly?" Koizumi Akako reminded him.

"Oh, okay." Lin Xiaofeng immediately placed his hands on Koizumi Akako's waist.

I must say, it's quite delicate and soft, but it doesn't feel greasy at all.

"Don't touch it!" Koizumi Akako glared at Lin Xiaofeng, then pushed off the ground, sending the broom flying into the sky.

"Ee--" Lin Xiaofeng lunged forward and grabbed Koizumi Akako's waist tightly.

He wasn't mentally prepared, and the flight was too sudden!

"Idiot! Don't get so close! And! Don't hug me! Move your arms down a bit!" Koizumi Akako tried to struggle.

"Hongzi! Don't move! Give me a chance to calm down!" Lin Xiaofeng quickly explained, "I was just not mentally prepared and got scared!"

"I'll turn you into a rat! Once we get back to Earth, I'm going to turn you into a rat!" Koizumi Akako's voice sounded somewhat exasperated.

This is understandable, since Lin Xiaofeng was a bit flustered when he held her, and his arm accidentally supported her precious baby.

I'm about to be turned into a rat, what should I do?

Lin Xiaofeng doesn't know any transformation magic!

"Stop standing there! Ling, quickly adapt to this feeling!" Xiao Quan Hong's father reminded him again, "Otherwise, next time you fly by yourself, you might just crash to the ground!"

Hmm... is there no option for a failed takeoff?

Lin Xiaofeng focused his attention, trying to get his body used to the feeling.
