Ever since Dake learned that the stone pier in the Lake Heart Pavilion was a switching hub, he had always wanted to deliberately experience the feeling of “virtual-real teleportation.”

But, as expected, besides a slight dizziness caused by spinning in circles, there was no other sensation.

He patted his unusually sore thighs, urging his legs to get moving.

“First, the materials needed to create the five common magic spells…”

Dake took out his notebook, which already contained a detailed list of materials.

Except for the [Blink Charm], which required a blank magic card worth 50 academic credits, the other four charms still only needed magic cards worth 10 academic credits.

Moreover, these five common magic charms were very similar in the basic material ratios, and many materials could be used interchangeably.

The difficulty lay in the non-basic parts.

That was the special “ink” poured into the magic pen to write “magic language.”

And the core material that gave the magic card its special properties.

According to Dake’s estimation, the academic credits required to purchase all the materials for these five types of magic cards were roughly:

①Magic Bullet Charm: 100 academic credits

②Push Charm: 200 academic credits

③Obstacle Charm: 300 academic credits

④Fade Charm: 400 academic credits

⑤Blink Charm: 1000 academic credits

Among them, the difficulty of crafting the [Blink Charm] was clearly more than one level higher than the other four charms.

The materials required to craft the [Blink Charm] were also very expensive.

Students must choose the magic cards suitable for crafting based on their academic credit limit and ability, and complete them in the Magic Theory class on Monday.

Of course, the main purpose of the class was to learn how to imprint magic spells onto magic cards.

Once this important step was learned, one could continue to refine other magic cards according to their needs.

…

Dake originally wanted to try buying entire material packs directly from the [Traveler’s Wind] material store, but the owner told him that the school had specifically instructed them not to sell material packs…

“It seems they want to train students’ ability to identify, collect, and purchase materials.”

Dake shook his head and began running around.

There were quite a few people like him, buying materials with sore bodies, often encountering classmates with the same purpose after entering a store.

However, it seemed that the students were all short on cash, with worried expressions on their faces.

Dake glanced at his academic credit balance, which was also meager. He had no choice but to buy only one set of materials for the [Blink Charm] and two sets each for the other four charms.

No one could guarantee success on their first attempt at refining.

Dake had actually experienced many failed experiments, so buying an extra set was better safe than sorry.

By the time all the materials were gathered, the sky was already ablaze with fiery clouds.

Dake returned laden with large and small bags, making the occasionally encountered students of the same grade envious.

After dinner, Dake, who had put the material bags back in his dormitory, came to Traveler Street again.

Although Traveler Street was still lively tonight, it was noticeably less crowded than before.

However, a closer look revealed it to be normal.

After all, some first-year students were still lying in their dorms.

Some students were tied up by homework.

And some students were still obsessed with secret passage adventures.

The professors’ strategy still had some effect, as fewer people were venturing into the secret passages.

…

More students of the same grade came out after dinner than at noon.

However, Emma and most of the girls from the Magic Academy were still absent, as they clearly had not recovered yet.

Incidentally, Diana was dutifully staying in the dormitory to take care of Rose.

Dake felt fortunate about this.

So much so that he still wore a smile when he met Victor and Robert.

“Hi, Dake.”

Victor greeted him as usual: “Are you here to buy materials too?”

Dake nodded slightly: “Yes, are you two as well?”

Victor smiled: “Of course, Professor Jones’s training is really tough. I wish I had Robert’s physique.”

Robert looked a bit smug: “It’s nothing.”

Victor added: “I’m going to buy materials for the [Blink Charm], I just worry about failing.”

Dake: “Go for it, failure isn’t scary. As long as you can learn from failure and gain experience for success, any amount of loss is valuable.”

Victor: “Hearing you say that, I feel relieved.”

…

So Victor and Robert went to buy materials for magic cards.

Dake, on the other hand, went to buy materials for [Charm Cage] and [Fusion].

[Charm Cage] and [Fusion] both belonged to the category of higher-level magic cards, and both were extremely special magic cards with a magic spirit card base.

Using [Charm Cage] could temporarily seal familiars, golems, and other quasi-life forms, to be used as magic spirit cards.

And using [Fusion] could fuse two or more magic spirit fusion materials into one.

The crafting difficulty of these two magic cards was very high, and the material costs were both above 1500 academic credits.

Although Dake had found the material lists for both magic cards in “The Three Thousand Marvelous Uses of Charm Cage” and “On the Extraordinary Characteristics of Fusion Series Decks,” he was not confident in being able to refine them successfully.

To complete the crafting of these two magic cards, he also had to self-study “magic language.”

→Purchasing materials in advance was just to be able to start experiments at any time.

However, the materials for these two magic cards were very difficult to find, so Dake had to continue searching the next day.

It wasn’t until Saturday noon that Dake had finished collecting all the materials for the two magic cards.

After lunch.

Dake arrived at the “Meow Meow Flower and Wood Shop.”

“The necessary magic card crafting materials have been collected. Now, finally, I can begin researching my own system!”

The successful crafting of [Digimon] had given him great inspiration.

The value of catnip, in his opinion, was no less than a high-level alchemy tool.

Simply put, by cultivating [Sin] into a fruit through catnip, the [Sin Fruit] could be endowed with certain biological characteristics.

For example:

[Pride] + [Catnip (Cat)] = [Fruit of Pride (Cat)]

This could be used to refine cat-type magic spirits.

But what if other types of catnip were used?

For example:

[Wrath] + [Catnip (Koi)] = [Fruit of Wrath (Koi)]

And then, could this [Fruit of Wrath (Koi)] be used to refine a Magikarp that could evolve by relying on [Wrath]?

Or, could a [Fruit of Greed (Cat)] be used to refine a Meowth that could evolve by relying on [Greed]?

…

This process of exploring the unknown was captivating.

Dake’s enthusiasm for this type of research was clearly higher than for others.

It had been about half a month since he last entered the [Meow Meow Flower and Wood Shop].

The shop also had several other species of catnip.

According to the saleslady, these were types that had received good feedback from customers.

“Is that cobra I encountered before gone? I wonder if it was taken back or bought by someone.”

Dake walked around for a bit, then couldn’t help but squat down and hug a ragdoll cat, rubbing his face against it.

“Meow~”

Catnip was truly irresistible.
