Lanchi followed Talia into the room and found it was her bedroom.

Talia turned on the floor lamp on the plush carpet next to the bed. The white walls reflected a soft light, and the whole space instantly became spacious and bright.

Standing by the door, Lanchi could see the oak cabinet next to him was filled with sealed lunch boxes. Under the transparent lids of these boxes were various small desserts such as cream puffs, puff pastry cheese, and mango pancakes, which seemed to be her dessert companions after breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even midnight snacks.

Lanchi just glanced at it, and before he could think about anything, he felt Talia's murderous gaze.

"Don't look around."

It seemed she didn't want Lanchi to see these sweets that were so out of character for her.

Talia took a small suitcase from under the bed.

With the sound of metal hinges opening, she opened the suitcase, which contained a set of high-end portable card-making tools. Then Talia found some card-making materials from the storage cabinet.

"Sit down."

She pointed to the desk on one side of the bedroom, signaling Lanchi to go to the chair there.

She sat on the other side of the long table, on the edge of her bed.

"Next, I will make a variety of first-order basic magic semi-finished magic cards. I will teach you a universal formula principle. You only need to complete a very simple step, and then I will complete it. From the final degree of completion deviation, you can see how compatible you are with this type of magic."

As Talia spoke, she picked up some of the card-making tools and started working.

"Well, what if I blow up the card?"

Lanchi seemed to be looking around the room for fire-fighting tools.

If Talia's bedroom was blown up, Lanchi didn't know what the consequences would be, and there was still a store downstairs, so he had to consider others.

"Try it."

Talia raised her head and stared at Lanchi, her eyes as bright as the cold moon.

Lanchi only felt a chill run down his spine. This time Talia was serious.

"...I won't blow up the cards."

Lanchi assured him with certainty, even the hand holding the card-making tool tightened a little.

Although Talia seemed stricter than ever, Lanchi had always upheld the traditional virtue of respecting the elderly, and he would only treat old ladies in their hundreds of years with kind words.

Then Talia temporarily ignored him and concentrated on the preparations at hand.

That's how the demons treat their apprentices. If she taught, she would teach seriously.

Although Talia didn't have much experience as a teacher, she felt that since Lanchi was a human-blooded demon, teaching him like this should be correct.

Since Lanchi first tried card-making, she had been watching Lanchi make cards, so she naturally knew where Lanchi's problems were and how to train him, who was quite talented, into an excellent card maker.

The biggest problem with this young master was—

Apart from his inherent talent for detonating magic cards, his previous card-making state had always been too loose, which was abnormal.

Although a state of mind that is not nervous at all when making cards is something that ordinary card makers envy, if Lanchi always maintains this state, he will fall into another misunderstanding—being too Buddhist, and the success rate will be low for a long time.

In Talia's view, the 【Challenge Goal】 and the 【Card-Making Technique】 are the main factors affecting the 【Card-Making State】. If the challenge goal is too high, the card maker will lack control over himself and the magic card, and will produce anxiety or frustration; conversely, if the challenge goal is too low, the card maker will feel bored and lose interest, and even the card making will become too casual.

The best card-making state of 【Complete Immersion】 mainly occurs when the challenge goal is balanced with the card-making technique.

Because Lanchi always likes to be in a stress-free state where his skills and talents outweigh the challenge, this indirectly leads to him not caring about blowing up cards.

So Talia was going to start training Lanchi in the demon way—if he didn't do well, he would die, even beyond death, so as to increase the pressure on Lanchi's card-making state to a balanced point.

Talia showed Lanchi the first 【Mental】-type semi-finished magic card she had made.

"I have already engraved the most basic mental influence magic structure for you. You need to embed an additional formula in the formation. This formula can be understood as a supplement or magic identification, so as to increase the directionality or identification of friend or foe."

While Talia was teaching Lanchi, she personally demonstrated how to complete it in front of him.

"This card is for demonstration. Next, every card will be completed by you."

Lanchi nodded solemnly.

Talia's gentle and patient explanation was based on the premise that he would absolutely complete the instructions and orders.

If there was a slight mistake later, he estimated that he would really be finished.

At the same time.

Lanchi also gradually realized the true meaning of the demon teaching method that he had not been able to fully experience in the Demon Academy—

Stimulating the potential of students between life and death in a state of extremely high pressure.

If he needs to guide other students in his own school or other schools in the future, he may also be able to use it.

Lanchi was sure that his principal's function was even more perfect.

Next.

The room became silent.

They no longer communicated with each other, but focused on their work, each doing their own work, but there would be a tacit understanding when they passed cards to each other.

When people are fully focused on one thing, they will forget the surrounding environment and time, and gain higher satisfaction, fun, and experience.

Talia occasionally watched Lanchi and was sure that Lanchi's card-making state at this time had changed from before.

It seems that she will have to keep an eye on him more in the future.

……

The color of the sky outside the room was changing subtly.

The originally bright morning sky was covered with a faint orange-red color at some point, and the clouds were like torches lit by the sunset.

The color of the sky gradually changed from azure blue to violet, and then to deep dark blue.

The sun slowly sank on the horizon, and finally disappeared below the horizon, leaving a twilight.

Until the dark of night, they were making cards.

And at this moment in Talia's room.

Along with the sound of soft breathing.

Lanchi had fallen asleep on the table, his face as innocent as a baby.

Whether it was because he was too focused, or because Talia gave him too much pressure, so he didn't dare to relax, he didn't even realize that he had reached his limit. After completing the filling of the last card and handing it to Talia, he lowered his head until he fell asleep on the table.

Talia looked at the stack of magic cards on the table, which was also the test result—

In addition to 【Mental】-type magic, 【Healing】-type was also better, and among all elemental magic, only 【Light】 was barely okay, but it was not particularly outstanding.

For the other small types of magic, the compatibility was mostly not as optimistic as Talia had originally seen with 【Curse】 and 【Poison】.

However, only one magic card engraved with colorless rune imprints shone brightly, and was different from the others.

This was proof of excellent compatibility.

After Talia tested all the types of magic that could be categorized, she did find the only type of magic that Lanchi was extremely compatible with.

Talia picked up the card, her expression a little complicated.

"Why is this guy most suitable for 【Sealing】-type magic..."

She looked at Lanchi's natural sleeping face and felt that his novice level would be greatly improved after the registered card maker exam.
