Chapter 62: I caught you, you thieving cat!

Interesting, very interesting.

This…this stray cat, and the rumors about her spending every night with our own Keti…

So they really are true!

Heh….

Hehehe….

After a moment, Sylvia’s expression gradually twisted, and in the elven girl’s hand, a blazing fireball illusion began to take shape, growing larger with continuous magical energy infusion.

Stray cat, go to hell, aaaahhhh—!

“Hey, calm down, calm down, hey!”

No, no, wait, why is she starting to cast Fireball Explosion Magic with her bare hands?!

Seeing Sylvia about to stand up and kick the desk in front of her flying, then bomb the silver-haired girl on the podium with magic, Layla gasped in shock and quickly reached out to grab her waist, forcibly pulling the elf lady back into her seat.

Huff…huff, that was too dangerous!

You have to know, the power of the magic Sylvia just unleashed could have blown the entire classroom away.

Is this girl crazy?

Just a single sentence broke her defense this badly…

Hmm…

Okay, okay, although Layla admitted that she herself was gritting her teeth after hearing that remark, but…

No choice, right now the most important thing is to find Keti!

So we can’t startle the grass.

“Don’t rush yet. Are you seriously planning to attack that person openly in front of so many students? Impossible…In Magic Academy, we can’t act rashly, the risk is too high! Didn’t I say, don’t alert her? If she recognizes us and tells Keti, it might become even harder to find her.”

Facing the nun’s anxious reminder, Sylvia just pursed her lips, seemingly a bit displeased that she was stopped.

But after a moment, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

The two girls quietly observed Keti.

After a while, the silver-haired girl’s eyelids fluttered repeatedly, and finally, she lay her head down on the podium and fell asleep…

Seeing this, Layla and Sylvia twitched their mouths.

After a while, the purple-haired jellyfish-haired older sister turned her head and scoffed: “Don’t you think this girl isn’t very professional? She’s just a Teaching Assistant, yet she acts so carefree?”

“Hmm…hehehe, yeah. Looks like our Keti has been completely fooled by this lazy, good-for-nothing bad woman.”

“And she’s some kind of perverted nympho who can seduce all night! Huff…huff…how does she have so much stamina?”

“Ahem ahem…look on the bright side, at least it shows our Keti’s ability isn’t bad, right…right?”

Layla coughed awkwardly twice, then silently clenched her teeth, thinking about how to deal with the silver-haired girl.

For now, she was the only clue.

If they could catch her and interrogate her fiercely, they should be able to find out Keti’s whereabouts, right?

But it was really hard to make a move at school…

What to do?

Sometimes, when you want to sleep, a pillow just shows up.

Just as she was stuck thinking, morning self-study ended, and Keti was woken up to prepare for the first class, Ximon suddenly spoke up:

“Te…Teacher, could you come to my house tonight to watch me study during evening self-study? I…I’ve been struggling a lot with my homework these days. Could you help me? I can provide food and lodging, and I’ll even pay for tutoring! When you’re tired, you can just sleep. We have lots of beds and they’re big!”

Although Keti didn’t know what troubles she was facing, she couldn’t allow any of her worries to come true!

No matter if the loli teacher was willing or forced, he couldn’t accept it, sniff sniff.

The little master was almost worried sick, so he quickly proposed having Keti be his tutor…

Faced with this sudden request, the silver-haired girl blinked in confusion, yawning at the same time…

Ah, after a little nap, her head finally cleared up a bit, but why did Ximon suddenly bring this up?

It made Keti a bit dazed.

At first, hearing about free food and lodging plus extra pay, Keti was a little tempted.

Ahem…after all, no teacher would reject voluntary tutoring fees easily.

But on second thought, agreeing to tutor Ximon openly in front of so many students wasn’t a good idea.

Moreover, his family…uh…

Keti was a bit scared of them.

They didn’t seem like nice people.

Forget it, forget it.

After some thought, Keti waved her hand and subconsciously found an excuse to refuse:

“Ah, what a pity, I have plans tonight…ahem ahem…I have a dinner appointment with friends, hahaha~ So I can’t tutor you tonight, Ximon. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can come to my office after class~ Alright, let’s officially start class!”

Damn, that’s definitely a date!!!

In the back corner of the classroom, Layla and Sylvia twitched their mouths fiercely.

Not only was it a date, but the stray cat’s date partner was very likely their own Keti!

Huff…

I can’t stand it.

I won’t let this little bitch steal my man without paying!

The green-haired elf gritted her teeth in fury, while the priestess beside her stayed clear-headed, stroking her chin with a slight smile.

A solution — isn’t it obvious?

Alright, then just follow her directly!

Miss Lulu, once you leave Magic Academy…your safety can’t be guaranteed anymore~

Thus, the day’s classes quickly ended.

Actually, Keti didn’t teach all the classes.

Aside from her own courses, she could rest a bit in the dorm to conserve energy.

Time passed until night fell.

Garden.

Going to the garden to meet Lynn, huh, gulp…

Standing in front of the mirror, Keti was still wearing those neutral-style clothes Lynn had given her at the start.

Very good, this would do!

She absolutely wouldn’t embarrass herself tonight…because she had vented thoroughly last night!

Absolutely, absolutely wouldn’t let her archrival be happy!

Charge!

With this thought, the girl stepped out of the school gates and walked along a familiar path to the agreed meeting spot, Imperial Capital ZATO…

After walking for a while, Keti suddenly felt something was off.

A chilly evening breeze blew past, and the bushes by the roadside rustled quietly…

Why…do I feel like someone’s been watching me all day?

Cold sweat trickled down her back.

The silver-haired girl kept glancing behind her but saw no one.

She started doubting if she was hallucinating from lack of sleep.

Calm down, calm down.

On such a deserted path, who could possibly be here?

Just as she reassured herself, suddenly…two familiar figures leapt out from the roadside bushes!

The two girls who had been tailing her for a long time immediately pinned Keti down to the ground!

“Ahhh, damn bitch, stop right there!”

“Eh? Ahhhh——!”
