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

Tallia flicked on the standing lamp beside her bed, and the soft white light reflected off the walls, instantly making the space feel wider and brighter.

Standing at the door, Lanchi could see a shelf of oak cabinets beside her, filled with sealed food containers. Underneath the transparent lids, there were all sorts of pastries—cream puffs, quiche lorraine, mango pancakes, and more—seemingly her dessert companion for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even after-dinner snacks.

Lance only glanced at her, before he could even think, he felt Talia's murderous gaze.

Don't peek.

These sweets, which seemed so out of character for her, she hadn't intended for Ranch to see.

Talya pulled a small suitcase from under the bed.

With a metallic click, she opened the carry-on case. Inside lay a high-end portable card making kit. Talia then retrieved some cardmaking supplies from her storage cabinet.

"Sit down."

She pointed to a desk by the bedroom, motioning for Lance to go sit in the chair.

And she sat on the other side of the long table, at her own bedside.

Next, I'll create some basic magic card prototypes. I'll teach you a general spell principle, and you just need to complete a very simple step. Then I'll complete the rest. By looking at the final product's deviation from completion, we can see how compatible you are with this type of magic.

As she spoke, Talya picked up some card-making tools and began working.

"Well, what if I accidentally mess it up"

Lance seems to be looking around the room for fire tools.

If the room was blown up, Lance didn't know what the consequences would be. Besides, there was a shop downstairs and he had to think of other people.

"Why don't you try it"

Talya raised her head and stared at Lance, her eyes as bright as a cold moon.

Lance only felt a chill run down his spine, this time Talia was serious.

"I won't get my card banned."

Lanche assured with certainty, even his hand holding the card-making tool tightened a bit.

Though Talia looked more stern than ever, Lance, who always held the virtue of respecting the elderly, treated the hundreds-year-old woman with kindness.

After that, Talya ignored him for the time being and focused on her preparations.

All demons treat their disciples this way. Since she's teaching, she'll teach seriously.

Although Talia didn't have much experience as a teacher, she felt that since Lynch was a human-born demon, it should be fine to teach him.

From the moment Rani first tasted Randy's creations, she'd been watching him make them, naturally knowing his problems and how to mold his talent into that of a masterful card maker.

The biggest problem with this rich kid is ——

Besides his unusual talent for explosive magic cards, his previous card crafting state was always too loose, which was abnormal.

Although a carefree attitude during card making is something most card makers envy, if Lance were to always maintain this state, he would fall into another pitfall — being too nonchalant, leading to a long-term decline in success rate.

In Talia's view, **[Challenge Target]** and **[Cardmaking Technique]** are the primary factors influencing **[Cardmaking Status]**. If the challenge target is too high, the cardmaker will lack control over themselves and magic cards, leading to anxiety or frustration; conversely, if the challenge target is too low, the cardmaker will find it boring and lose interest, making cardmaking too arbitrary.

The best carding state of 【complete immersion】 mainly occurs when the challenge target is balanced with the carding technology.

Since Lynch always enjoys being in a state of comfort where his skills and talents surpass the challenges, this indirectly leads to him blowing cards without much consequence.

So Talia was going to begin training Lance in the ways of the demons—not doing well would mean death, even beyond death. This would push Lance's cardmaking state to a point of equilibrium.

Talya showed Lance the first half-finished [Spirit] series magic card she had made.

"I have already engraved the most basic spiritual influence magic structure for you. You need to embed an additional ritual within the formation. This ritual can be understood as a supplement or magical identification, used to increase targeting or friend/foe recognition."

Talya demonstrated to Lance how to do it, explaining each step as she went.

"This card is for demonstration purposes, and from now on, you will be responsible for completing all subsequent cards."

Lanche nodded solemnly.

Tallia's patient and gentle explanations stem from the premise that he will absolutely fulfill instructions and commands.

In a little while, if things go wrong, he reckoned he was done for.

At the same time.

Lan Qi gradually came to understand the true meaning of the demonic teachings that he hadn't fully grasped while at the Demon Academy.

Under extreme pressure, students' potential is unlocked at the edge of life and death.

If he needs to guide other students at his school or other schools in the future, he can definitely put this to good use.

Lanche is confident that his role as principal has become even more refined.

Next.

The room fell silent.

They no longer had any communication, only focusing on their hands and doing their respective work. However, when they passed cards to each other, there was an unspoken understanding between them.

When someone is fully absorbed in something, they forget about their surroundings and time, and gain a higher level of satisfaction, enjoyment, and experience.

Tallia occasionally glanced at Lance, certain that his card-making state now was different from before.

It seems I'll have to keep a close eye on his teaching from now on.

……

The sky outside was undergoing subtle changes.

The originally bright morning sky had been covered by a faint orange-red at some point, and the clouds looked like burning torches under the setting sun.

The colors of the sky gradually shifted from azure to violet, then deepened into a rich indigo.

The sun slowly sank below the horizon, finally disappearing below the earth. It left behind a blanket of twilight.

Until night fell, they kept making cards.

And now, Talya's room.

Accompanied by gentle breaths.

Lancy lay on the table as if sound asleep, his face innocent as a baby's.

Whether it was due to his intense focus or the pressure Talia had placed on him, he hadn't even realized he'd reached his limit. After completing the last card and handing it to Talia, he hung his head low until it rested on the table, falling asleep.

Taliya looked at the deck of magic cards on the table, which were also the test results.

Besides 【Spirit】 being magic, 【Healing】 is also quite good. Of all the elemental magics, only 【Light】勉強 makes do, but it's not particularly outstanding either.

The rest of the minor spells' affinities were mostly as pessimistic as Talia's initial perception of 【Curse】 and 【Poison】.

However, there was one card etched with colorless runes that shimmered and stood out from the rest.

This is proof of excellent compatibility.

After Talya tested every conceivable type of magic, she did indeed find the one that was perfectly suited to Lance's nature.

Talya picked up the card, her expression complex.

"This guy, he's most suited for 【Sealing】 magic..."

She looked at Lance's naturally sleeping face and felt that his level of "newbie" would greatly increase after the registration exam for card makers.
