I really just want to hang out in the magic world.

Ruan Xiaozhe looked at the burning puppy with a face full of grievance.

Unfortunately, the puppy had already run far away.

When the students of the White Tiger Tower saw this scene, they began to whisper to each other, with expressions of "I knew it would be like this" on their faces.

Ruan Xiaozhe felt unhappy.

"Come on, Vodanaz! A dog's fear of a human can't determine a person's personality!"

"Yes, Lord Ruan Xiaozhe of the Vodanaz family!"

Seeing this, friends from other towers came to comfort him, but Ruan Xiaozhe's mood did not improve.

"It seems that those who are not afraid of me are either bad-tempered or undead. Apart from these two, all others will be scared away."

Ruan Xiaozhe thought a little frustratedly, reaching into his coat pocket, groping for something.

The burning puppy in the distance saw this and immediately barked at him.

"Ok?"

Professor Lightning Step was confused by this scene and couldn't understand what he was going to do.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Xiaozhe took out a sweet potato from his pocket!

Genando swallowed and wanted to go forward to check, but was stopped by his classmates.

"Come."

Ruan Xiaozhe shook the sweet potato in his hand and hooked his finger at the burning puppy.

Seeing this, the burning puppy immediately stopped barking and slowly approached following the scent of sweet potatoes.

"interesting."

Professor Lightning Step smiled.

The original purpose of this class was to teach students how to deal with a grumpy, flaming puppy, not to teach them how to tempt it with sweet potatoes... but, this idea is not bad.

Rather than stubbornly fighting the monster, be flexible and understand what the monster wants.

This is the first step to taming a monster.

Even without anyone teaching him, the boy from the Vodanazi family can do so well. Just look at him...

Snapped!

Just when the burning puppy was attracted by the sweet potato and its eyes shifted away, Ruan Xiaozhe quickly pounced over and hugged it.

Then he lay down on the ground to prevent the puppy from escaping.

"Caught!"

"..."

Professor Lightning Step felt a little ridiculous.

"Woof! Woof woof! Woof! Woo woof..."

Then, the puppy, who was frightened and barking at first, surrendered within a few seconds, became obedient, and looked up at Ruan Xiaozhe.

Ruan Xiaozhe lay on the ground, gently scratching the puppy's belly.

The puppy stuck out its tongue at him and wagged its tail.

Although this was different from the intimate domestication that Professor Lightning Step had envisioned, it was still a form of domestication...albeit one that used intimidation and deception.

"Professor, you see, we are already intimate."

"Well, you did a good job, keep holding it."

Rappadel of the White Tiger Tower looked at Ruan Xiaozhe who was lying on the ground holding the burning puppy, and showed a helpless expression.

"What a ruthless character..."

Even if he was not from a knight family, he was from a noble family!

One must be extremely cruel to possess such dark magic abilities, right?

……

"what--"

After a while, someone yawned, and several students followed suit.

Only then did Professor Lightning Step realize that something was wrong.

"It seems like it's been a while..."

In fact, the fire-resistant potions prepared by Professor Lightning Step have different durations.

This is to prevent students from making predictions in advance.

But... no matter how long it takes, it won't be that long.

"How is this going……"

Professor Lightning Step observed Ruan Xiaozhe carefully.

Then he discovered that the effect of the medicine had actually ended long ago, and now Ruan Xiaozhe had no fire resistance at all!

The reason why he was not injured was because Ruan Xiaozhe completely isolated the fire burning the puppy with his own magic power...

Although the puppy continued to spit out flames, the flames were blocked back to the ground the moment they approached Ruan Xiaozhe.

This is not the use of magic barriers, nor is it the use of other magic, but simply relying on the release of magic to resist the flames.

This skill is not that of a magician, but that of a swordsman!

"This guy is such a reckless man!"

Professor Lightning Step's eyes were full of confusion, but Ruan Xiaozhe misunderstood what she meant.

"Professor, I have to survive." - Ruan Xiaozhe naturally had his reasons.

After all, it's very dangerous to risk holding a burning puppy with only a bottle of potion.

So to be on the safe side, he could only use this method to protect himself extra.

Of course, this method is a fantastic idea that no one else can imitate...

Ruan Xiaozhe didn't know that the effect of the fire-resistant potion had ended. He originally thought that even if he used magic power to protect his body, he would still feel hot after the effect of the potion ended.

“But, touching this puppy, it feels a little strange.”

At this moment, he had an illusion in his heart, as if he could control the fire element magic better.

This feeling was very similar to the feeling of having more confidence in controlling the iron beads after almost losing his life at the hands of Professor Vladi.

Although the latter has a basis, the former does not.

“…Is this a trap?”

Ruan Xiaozhe stared at the puppy.

But the burning puppy just stuck out his tongue and wagged his tail.

When Ruan Xiaozhe was seriously wondering if the puppy was tempted by the sweet potatoes and was holding a grudge against him, and was planning to deceive him——

"The effect of the potion has long ended."

"What? Really?"

Hearing Professor Lightning Step's words, Ruan Xiaozhe came back to his senses in surprise.

Seeing the other person's appearance, Professor Lightning Step thought to himself:

"It seems like next time I'll have to bring someone who can't be stopped even with powerful magic."

Ruan Xiaozhe didn't realize that he had dug a hole and buried himself. He asked Professor Lightning Step:

"Professor, can the burning puppy hypnotize people and cause them to have illusions?"

"... Could it be that what you drank was not the fire resistance potion, but the bar?"
