Only about half a year had passed since Asakura transmigrated to this world, and even though he diligently completed tasks, the rewards he received were not many.
A pile of strange alchemy and Magic potion materials, a broken wizard hat, a black long cloak, a red single-handed sword, a magnifying glass, a few rings, plus two Magic spells engraved in his mind... these odds and ends were pretty much all he had.
After the Association Clubroom appeared, most of them were transferred into the Clubroom.
To prevent the startled little black cat from ruining all the rewards he had painstakingly acquired (though most of them he didn't know the use for), Asakura quickly dropped the long-handled spoon he was still stirring in the cauldron and tried to catch the jumping little black cat.
Fortunately, the Association Clubroom was not large, and the little black cat seemed to be drunk and hadn't adapted to its body yet, moving a bit strangely and awkwardly. So, Asakura quickly cornered the little black cat, and after paying the price of being bitten once, he successfully lifted the little black cat by the scruff of its neck, rendering its struggles futile.
"Oh no, the potion, potion, potion..."
Coming back to his senses, Asakura, holding the little black cat, ran to the cauldron.
The little black cat probably thought Asakura was going to throw it into the cauldron, and it struggled even harder. Unfortunately, once its scruff was held, a cat lost its ability to resist and could only be at the mercy of others.
Asakura looked at the situation in the pot. Fortunately, unlike the time it was ruined, the Magic potion in the pot hadn't turned into a dark, burnt-cabbage-smelling mess. It had only become much thicker after being left unstirred for a while.
Seeing that it was almost ready, Asakura, following the instructions in the Magic potion notes, made a hollow in the center of the dregs in the cauldron.
A moment later, a light green liquid seeped out from the hollow in the middle of the dregs.
Asakura scooped out the liquid and poured it into a glass bottle he had prepared earlier.
A whole pot of Magic potion ingredients, yet the final Magic potion only filled a small glass bottle slightly thicker than an index finger. It could only be said that concentrated things were essences.
"Hmm..."
However, Asakura's brows couldn't help but furrow slightly as he looked at the color of the Magic potion.
According to the notes, a good quality Essence of Dittany should be clearer, almost transparent liquid. The Magic potion he made now looked like bug spray, so its quality was clearly not very good.
However, even so, the task still showed as completed: it seemed the Nameless Magic Book didn't require his Magic potion to be excellent, just that it could be made and not kill anyone...
Asakura thought for a moment, untied the bandage on the cat's leg, poured out a little Essence of Dittany (the little black cat struggled even more), and then gently applied it to the already stopped bleeding wound.
Something magical happened.
Accompanied by a faint mist, the wound on the cat's leg healed rapidly at a visible speed.
Asakura finally nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that although the color wasn't great, at least the Magic potion's effect was fine. Judging from how a few drops of Essence of Dittany could immediately heal such a large wound on the kitten, this small bottle would last a long time even for human use.
The little black cat was also stunned after seeing the wound on its body disappear so quickly. Only now did it realize that Asakura was not trying to hurt it, but wanted to help it.
Cats have very few facial muscles, so their expressions are often not as vivid as dogs', but Asakura felt that he seemed to see guilt on the little black cat's face.
Especially after he let go of the kitten, it no longer ran around frantically like before. Instead, it cautiously approached him, and after a moment of eye contact, it licked the wound on Asakura's hand, which it had bitten, with a hint of apology.
It seems this guy isn't so untamed after all. Asakura couldn't help but think proudly.
However, in the next moment, he felt a certain hot current surging into his body through the wound bitten by the kitten, with the momentum of a torrent.
"Holy crap, ice—no, it's rabies!" Asakura was startled and instinctively wanted to shoo the cat away, but he felt that the hot current merged with the tiny trickle of Magic in his body, finally lingering near his heart, forming a lake, and then calming down again.
That was Magic? But how could there be so much?
But clearly, the surprises for him today were not over.
After licking his wound, the little black cat also seemed to be electrocuted. Its tiny body trembled slightly for a while, and then, under Asakura's incredulous gaze, its, or rather, her body rapidly enlarged, finally turning into a naked, delicate girl with long black straight hair, who then fell into Asakura's arms.
Asakura was completely stunned. Her naked appearance made him, who had no luck with women in two lifetimes, completely unsure whether he should help her up.
Forget it, better not help her up.
Just as Asakura thought this, the girl's long eyelashes trembled twice, and then she slowly opened her eyes.
Violet pupils, quite beautiful, and the pink was also very beautiful...
"Eek—?!"
The girl, the moment she woke up, found herself in a strange man's arms. She instinctively leaned back, her hands pressing against Asakura's chest, trying to push him away.
But almost at the same time, she suddenly realized she was stark naked, so she covered her private parts with both hands: "No, don't look..."
Perhaps too much had happened today, making Asakura somewhat numb. He cleared his throat, stood up, and said with an outwardly sage-like attitude: "Please wait a moment."
Then he found the sportswear he used for physical education class from his backpack and handed it to the girl.
The girl cautiously took the sportswear and put it on. During the process, Asakura tried his best to keep his eyes straight ahead, only hearing rustling sounds from behind, which inexplicably made him feel a little ticklish.
"I'm dressed," the girl's voice sounded.
Compared to her panicked state just now, her voice now sounded much calmer.
Is this what they call not recognizing people once clothes are on?
Asakura sighed as he turned to look at her, then couldn't help but show a delighted expression.
Her face looked delicate and gentle, and her hime cut made her exude the aura of a distant noble young lady.
But her figure was quite petite. Wearing Asakura's sportswear, which was a size too big for her, it looked loose and baggy, adding a touch of clumsy cuteness to her somewhat aloof demeanor. Especially the arms, because the sleeves were too long, her hands couldn't even poke out of them, making them completely 'moe sleeves,' which made her look even more adorable.
