Luisa's footsteps gradually faded away, but Shard, sitting in the room, wasn't reaching for his teacup; instead, he was looking down at the orange cat.
He hadn't forgotten that the previous night, this cat had absorbed some divine power on its own and reverted to its feline form without anyone dispelling the enchantment. Luisa said there was nothing wrong with the cat, and Shard thought it possible he had unconsciously lifted the Arcane Technique while he was unconscious, but he was always cautious.
"Meow~"
Seeing that Shard made no move, the lying-down cat looked up at him.
Shard was certain that the cat he had adopted was a normal one, at least until a few days ago. Now he wasn't worried about the cat dispelling its own curses, but he was concerned that after absorbing the tiniest hint of divinity, the cat had become uncommon.
