Candy Wizard and Travel

Just in case, I tore off a piece of paper and stuck it on the bottle with the label "Testing Potion" on it. This way, even if I was discovered, I would weigh it before using it.

Xidi closed the door gently and walked out.

……

Senior started.

The girl retracted her head.

It can be said that Senior Brother Xidi was not distracted while cooking, so he took advantage of this time to adjust the potion.

Irena had just gone out and found some animal hair in the corner of the street. She didn't know if it was a cat or a dog, but it was not a big threat.

Taking one last look at the kitchen, Irena stepped on her feet and sneaked into the study, went straight to the bookshelf at the back, stepped on the floating broom, and reached out to touch the potion.

"Huh? Is it here?"

It feels like it's not where I put it last night, but when I look at the color, it's blue and transparent, which is indeed true. It can't be that the teacher and senior brother are also making potions, right?

Jumping off the broom, Irena walked to the table, pulled out the cork, took out the ball of hair and added it.

"Googling..."

The blue potion in the round-bottomed flask began to stir.

"This, isn't this wrong?"

Irena felt the gradually boiling liquid, and her big eyes were full of doubts. It was impossible, no matter how the potions were combined, there would be such violent changes. She had doubts about her own knowledge, so that she immediately returned Thinking that he might not have a complete reaction, he shook the bottle——

"boom!"

The flask exploded, causing blue liquid, steam, lint, and glass fragments to scatter.

But Xidi's hard teaching during this period was not in vain. Seeing the opportunity, Irena opened a small-scale magic shield and wrapped it around the important parts. A burst of crackling blocked all the fragments. The loud noise still scared her and she stepped back. He stumbled onto a broom and stumbled into a bookshelf.

"Boom!"

A heavy object hit her head. It seemed to be another flask. She felt that it was broken around the neck of the bottle. The cold liquid flowed down her clothes to the ground. The bottle bounced, and the fragile material and structure fell to the ground. The dust that stepped behind the bottleneck fell into pieces, and the light blue liquid flowed out.

"It hurts……"

The reckless girl rubbed her hair, stood up, and a note dangled in front of her eyes.

——Try making the magic potion, but don’t touch it.

Miss Irena suddenly felt that the temperature had returned to three months ago, and her face turned pale.

It's my senior brother's handwriting, it's over.

Before she could think about how long she would hang on the wire, she saw the previously unresponsive animal hair slowly falling down, and when it touched the liquid on the ground, a cloud of smoke exploded again.

……

Two strange noises were vaguely heard, one dull and the other crisp.

Between checking the situation and continuing to cook, Xidi chose the latter. After all, if something was smashed, it would be fine to clean it up later or retrace the steps. This dish would be ruined if it was overcooked.

The sound came from the study. There was nothing in there except books, and there was only a bottle of magic potion. It would not be a big problem if it was knocked over. The estimated effect was to fix the magic power and delay the magic's effective time, so there was no harm.

I don’t know which one of them it is, but the weather is getting warmer and it’s time to hang them up and bask in the sun.

As for being injured, it was absolutely impossible. Xidi believed in her teacher and junior sister.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

When the last vegetable soup for clearing the mouth was slurping down, Hidi noticed something was wrong.

Although his junior sister's laziness level will increase rapidly in winter and summer, reaching a level comparable to Teacher Fran's, now that the temperature has risen, she has begun to become active. Starting from last week, before meals, Irena will Come and help.

And now lunch will be ready soon.

Combined with the sound just now, he had a vague premonition.

……

Teacher Fran was still asleep. Xi Di called her. The witch answered vaguely and turned over to continue sleeping.

There was no one in Irena's room.

"Irena?"

No one answered.

Xidi's expression was a little serious and she went straight to the study.

The door to the study was closed, just as it was when he left.

He is very confident in his own abilities, which does not prevent him from being cautious at all times.

He took out his wand, kept a little vigilance, and after the magic shield was in place, he opened the door.

The dull interior has the unique smell of stacked books and is quiet.

He called his junior sister's name, "Irena——"

"Aim~"

A unique sound made by some kind of small cat. It is soft and weak, and the ending sound is very long, as if it is wronged.

But Xidi threw a restraining magic without even thinking.

The target was at the deepest part of the bookshelf, and the magic power condensed into a rope, pulling on the thing that had just made the sound and lifting her up. At the same time, a light white mist spread in the study room.

After a while, Xidi held a piece of magic ice and looked at the cat with beautiful blue eyes inside.

The fur on the body is fluffy, the color is gray and white, almost silver, and even the tail is covered. It must be a type of long-haired cat. He has seen a similar type in a country with popular cat culture, called a Ragdoll. Cats, it’s just rare to see such a solid color.

To be fair, this cat looks very good. In that country where Xidi received the task of finding the princess's lost pet, that delicate cat was much worse than the one in front of her.

Its eyes were still moving, with a pitiful expression of begging for mercy.

The body is neither fat nor thin, and the fur is smooth and has obviously been combed regularly. Wild cats cannot look like this, and this is a forest several miles away from Roberta. The possibility of encountering a domestic cat here is extremely high, and it is extremely suspicious.

But other than that, there was nothing else in the room.

There were temporarily frozen water stains on the floor, and glass shards were scattered around the bookshelf and surroundings. Under the magic, the scene remained exactly as it was when he entered.

There is only this cat.

There's something strangely familiar about it for some reason.

Could it be——a monster born in the forest?

Xidi's eyes condensed, and she increased the isolation effect of the magic shield. She stared at the gray cat in the transparent ice, and the sense of intimacy still did not disappear.

The cat's blue eyes looked over, and if it hadn't been frozen, it would have meowed pitifully now.

In the past, many people begged Hidi for mercy. In theory, the eyes of animals do not have the rich emotions of humans, and he will not be soft-hearted when needed just because of his eyes.

But it——

In a daze, the outline of those blue eyes appeared in my mind. If the shape of the pupils were changed to that of a human being...

By some strange coincidence, Xidi knelt down and stared into those eyes.

"Irena?"

The pupils of the blue cat eyes shrank.

……

After a thorough inspection of the house, there was no sign that the outer boundary had been triggered. Teacher Fran took over the magic power detection equipment and found no magic abnormalities. In other words, this is a secret room...

Well, Irena disappeared in the house, and there was only a cat on the ground. With Xidi's straight-forward thinking, if it hadn't been for a sudden inspiration, he would not have doubted the cat. Suspicion was just a guess as to whether there was some kind of cat. Weird props, such as XX foundation, or monsters in the forest.

"Assuming that you can understand me, I need to confirm."

Transforming into a cat is considered an evil practice for magicians, and it is still very difficult. Most transformation magic cannot achieve this kind of change involving more than 90% of the body. The few that can do it require a lot of effort. After years of study and advanced magic skills, Xidi, who knew her junior sister thoroughly, didn't expect it at all.

In addition, there is the term "curse" that often appears in the story. This can indeed be achieved, but if the goal is for ordinary people to extract the witch, it will be difficult for Hidi to deal with an above-average witch like Irena.

In summary, after ruling out the two possibilities, combined with the abnormality of the glass fragments on the ground, Xidi can only think of one possibility——

"Are you making potions again?"

The cat in the ice cube opened its eyes humanely.

This look makes the comparison progress bar almost full.

He rubbed his forehead, his blood pressure rose.

He was basically able to equate this cat with his junior sister, but out of caution, he continued the questioning just now.

"It seems that you understand, so the first question is, Fran's favorite food is pasta. If you have no problem, look to the right. If you have any problem, look to the left. Use yourself as the standard."

His eyes moved directly to the left.

"Second question, the first time we met was at the entrance of the coffee shop."

left.

"Teacher Fran is a good teacher."

Left and right, complex emotions are perfectly expressed.

"I like wine very much. I won't get drunk after a thousand cups."

Without any hesitation, he turned directly to the left.

Xi Di hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to ask some information that only Irena knew specifically.

"Irena's size is..."

His eyes moved to the right hesitantly.

During last autumn's festival, Victorique had just measured her daughter, and compared with herself at the same age, she felt that she was far different.

"call--"

Taking a long, long breath, even he himself could not describe his inner mood at this moment.

After dispelling the surrounding magic, without waiting for the cat Irena to react, Hidi picked up the skin of her neck and raised it to his eyes.

"Meow?"

Very detailed, the hair also smells of lavender bath salts.

Rather than reprimanding, what needs to be confirmed now is how to change back. After all, some things are only convenient when you are in human form - hanging up.

"Is your change due to the potion?"

"Meow meow~"

The pronunciation of cat language is very perfect, it doesn’t look like it’s just pretending, it seems like it can’t speak human language anymore.

There was a faint hint of a flattering tone, maybe she was just being held by the scruff of her fate. She behaved quite well. If she were in human form, she would most likely have made some excuses and tried to change the subject. Now she can only Good job.

"Can't you change back?"

"woo meow~"

"You still know that you are wronged? Who told you to be careless? How many times have I told you to be cautious... Forget it, let's do a test first and lend you some cat hair."

Change it back first.

Xidi gently rubbed her with the wand. This season was relatively dry, and everyone knew how much cats shed. After a few rubs, the static electricity attracted more than a dozen gray hairs.

"Stay there and don't get too close to affect the data."

He gently put the cat down and when he stopped, even he couldn't help but rub it. It can only be said that humans have no resistance to furry things, unless they are allergic.

With the materials in hand, Xidi returned to Teacher Fran's pile of instruments, filling in the materials while recalling the feel of the instruments in a daze.

Irena on the side obediently maintained her prone position. In fact, a more comfortable position for the cat would be squatting.

Sorry I can't do it.

The detailed inspection does not take long, it only takes more than ten minutes, but for a cat, staying in place for more than ten minutes is a bit...

The shining light on the ground attracted her.
