Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

News of what happened in the Spell Casting class started to spread when everyone went to the Dining Hall to have lunch.

Everyone was surprised that Chloe had the guts to actually cast a spell against the Grand Archmage of the Kingdom, making them think that she was too disrespectful.

But after hearing that Edmond himself seemed to be interested in forming connections with Chloe, their impression of her changed, with some of the boys even thinking of using the chance, since she and Ethan had entered a cold war, to get close to her.

Right after lunch, they all headed to their next class, which was the Study of Magical Creatures, taught by Professor Njal.

Of course, Professor Edmond was also there to “supervise” the class and see how the Professors of Brynhildr Academy taught their students.

Perhaps thinking that he needed to make a good impression on the Grand Archmage of the Kingdom, Professor Njal decided to go all out and introduced a rare creature that one wouldn’t see every day.

"Today, I will introduce you to a good friend of mine, whom I met a few years ago,” Professor Njal said. As he pointed at the box beside him. “Now, without further delay, let me introduce all of you to one of the most misunderstood creatures in the world.”

Lightly clapping his hand, the lid of the box opened up.

Suddenly, something jumped out from inside of it and rolled in the air a few times before landing gracefully on the ground.

A sword, sheathed to its scabbard, could be seen hanging on its waist, which was tied up by a red belt.

This creature also held a sword in his hand, making even Nicole arch an eyebrow due to how suave it looked.

On the other hand, Lily scratched her head because she personally knew this creature. She wondered what it was doing here in the academy.

"Greetings, Noja,” the Black Cat, with a white patch on its chest, said as it slightly tipped its hat toward the students.

It was at least a meter tall, standing on its hind legs. Its eyes were sharp, but instead of being intimidated, one could tell that it was a very friendly sort, so the students couldn’t help but look at it favorably.

"I’m sure that not all of you have seen his kind before and might have only heard about them in stories passed down from generation to generation,” Professor Njal stated. “This creature is none other than the infamous Cait Sith, who is said to have the power to steal the souls of people.”

After hearing Professor Njal’s words, some of the students gasped in fright because they didn’t expect that they would meet such a dangerous creature in today’s lesson.

However, seeing the looks on their faces, Professor Njal chuckled and stood beside his friend.

"While they do have the power to steal souls, it is not what most people think,” Professor Njal stated. “Cait Siths are actually Fairy Cats who help wandering souls that are unable to pass through to the other side.

"They are guiding Fairies who often visit haunted places, where spirits were said to dwell in the hope that they will be able to help them return to Yggdrasil’s embrace. Also, they are a race that fights against evil spirits, so some Wizards often have them as companions or familiars.”

"That’s right, Noja,” the Cait Sith stated. “We are indeed a misunderstood race, Noja.”

Lord Edmond also nodded his head because he knew this to be true.

"Of course, you will not find them easily since they don’t really interact with people unless they have to,” Professor Njal explained. “My friend here, Noja, is quite unique even with his own kind. He doesn’t shy away from talking to the Wizards and Witches that he crosses paths with.”

Professor Njal smiled faintly as he began to explain the characteristics of Cait Sith to his students.

They disguised themselves as normal cats, so not everyone could tell that the stray cat that they saw on the streets was actually a Cait Sith.

"But as you can see with my friend here, he doesn’t really disguise himself. Instead, he makes himself stand out. When I asked him why he does this, he just said ‘it’s more fun this way’.”

"That’s right, Noja,” Noja commented. “It’s more fun this way.”

The Cait Sith’s gaze then landed on Ethan for a few seconds before he shifted his gaze to the other students.

"While it’s not uncommon to see other Cait Siths with a different fur color, most of the Cait Siths have black fur and a white patch on their chest. A lot of ordinary cats have this feature too, so they’re generally very hard to differentiate from ordinary cats.

"So next time, don’t hurt cats you randomly see in the streets. If you do, the Cait Siths might remember you and might just hold your soul captive, preventing you from going to the afterlife.”

The corner of Noja’s lips curled up into a smirk after hearing Professor Njal’s words.

The students didn’t know if the Professor was joking or not, but one thing was certain—it would be best to take this advice seriously.

If a Caith Sith was really determined to catch their souls when they were on the brink of death, they might just succeed, and that would be a very bad thing for the person who offended them.

"Since this is a very rare opportunity, feel free to ask Noja any questions.”

"Ask away, Noja.”

Lily raised up her hand, but Noja pretended that he didn’t see her. Instead, it was Professor Njal who called out to Lily so that she could ask her question.

"What are you doing here?” Lily asked. “Aren’t you supposed to ‘Guard’ that place?”

"I-I don’t know what you’re talking about, Noja,” Noja stuttered. “You got the wrong person, Noja.”

"Oh, really?”

"Yes, Noja.”

Lily shook her head helplessly before going back to her seat. Professor Njal and the students didn’t understand the exchange between the two.

But for some reason, they could somewhat sense that Lily and Noja knew each other based on how they interacted with each other.
