"Grandpa, we're ready to set out!"
The next day, Li Xiaolang and Li Meiling carried backpacks, said hello to George, and then set off to meet with Xiao Yan and Chisato.
"Today seems to be the day for a Zangmeng card to appear. I've almost collected all of the Kurama cards, so maybe we can start touching on Akira Eriou earlier."
As the two little ones left, George thought to himself in his heart.
At the moment, there are fifty-three Kurama cards, and Xiao Yan and Xiaolang have already collected forty-seven. There are six more to go before they can be collected, at which point he will have essentially researched all of the Kurama cards.
But to be honest, at his current level, fully understanding the magical principles contained in the fifty-three cards is something that would be very difficult without at least a decade of effort.
If you want to speed up the process, the only option besides obtaining some accomplishments in other worlds is to find the reincarnation of Zhizao Eriou, also known as Taizai Akira.
Akira Eriou is currently the strongest magician in this world and the reincarnation of a portion of Zhizao Liudao's soul. He possesses much of Liudao's memory and inheritance.
Before leaving this world for other realms, Kurama had a part of his soul reincarnated as Kageyama Fujirou, who fathered Sakura, and another part reincarnated as Hyuuga Akira.
Therefore, while Hyuuga Akira may not be as powerful as Kurama, he still practices based on memory and has a deep understanding of all the magical principles of the Kurama cards.
If he can communicate with Hyuuga Akira, he will undoubtedly be able to understand all the magical principles of the Kurama cards more quickly.
In the evening, after Xiaolang and Meiling returned, they handed over the creation of the card to George and recounted their experiences from today.
As he had anticipated, they had captured the Zangmeng card at the Tokyo Tower, a card that could predict the future through dreams and was also one of the very powerful cards.
After obtaining the creation card, George again delved into his research on magic, immersing himself until three days later.
"What, you want to act as the Sleeping Beauty?"
Hearing Xiaolang's words at the dinner table, George was taken aback.
It turned out that this weekend the school was hosting a talent show, and Xiaolang's class was performing a drama titled "The Sleeping Beauty." Roles were decided by lottery, and Xiaolang drew the role of the Sleeping Beauty, while Sakura drew the role of the prince.
"Why do I have to play the villain, I want to play the Sleeping Beauty, let Xiaolang play the prince."
Meiling on the side, with chopsticks stuck in rice, looking very reluctant.
She had drawn the role of the wicked witch from "The Sleeping Beauty" in the lottery.
"You two are impossible."
George looked at Li Meiling and secretly shook his head in his heart.
Li Meiling likes Li Xiaolang, but they are first cousins; first cousins cannot marry.
You would say that they are second cousins; for a traditional Taoist family like the Li family, in order to ensure bloodline, it could be considered acceptable.
But first cousins, even in the Li family, are not allowed.
So even without Xiao Yan, Li Meiling cannot marry Li Xiaolang.
Of course, he felt that Li Meiling's feelings for Li Xiaolang might not be that of a man and woman, but rather some form of incestuous love, as she was too young and still didn't fully understand it herself.
He didn't point it out either.
Letting things go their own course is the best outcome; deliberately bringing it up might even stir up rebellious feelings.
As a member of the Li family and a respected elder, it is necessary to consider the well-being of the younger generation.
Once he has fully comprehended the magic of all fifty-three Kurama cards, he plans to pass on the meditation method and some of his own Daoist teachings and magic to the Li family. As the Li family grows stronger, it will also benefit him as their respected elder.
"Hmm, Grandpa, will you come to watch when the time comes?" Xiaolang asked with a hint of helplessness.
The talent show is one that needs to be invited to parents, and his mother is in Hong Kong, so he can only find the old ancestor.
George, upon hearing this, smiled:
"Why not? Come to see how well you and Xiao Yan, Meiling perform, and cheer you all on."
After a careful recall, it seems that there will also be a Kurama card appearing at this talent show, and it symbolizes the power of light.
The light card is one of the most powerful Kurama cards.
The Kurama cards are divided into yin and yang, as well as light and darkness. Yang represents the sun, which refers to the guardian beast KurubeLOS, who governs light and controls the fire and earth elements among the four elements.
Yin represents the moon, which refers to the judge Lian and governs darkness, and controls the wind and water elements among the four elements.
If he can fully comprehend the light card, the laws of fairies and the glory of fairies, as well as the light magic learned from the headmaster, their power will be greatly enhanced.
Facing Morgoth in the Middle-earth, he would have a better chance of winning.
Sunday, morning, Ueshima Primary School.
Three figures appeared instantly on the rooftop of the school's teaching building.
"Go change your clothes and prepare, I'll go for a walk and will be over to the audience area to watch you perform in a while."
Rubbing Xiaolang and Meiling's heads, George put his hands behind his back and began to walk around the school, which was already crowded with people.
The main reason for him to come and watch the performance is to get to know the school's teacher, Kagura Kanazawa.
Kagura Kanazawa is a priestess of the Tsukumo Shrine, born with powerful lunar magic, and once served as an education intern as Xiaolang's math teacher in middle school. After dating Xiaolang for a year, they parted ways amicably.
After the breakup, she went to study in Britain, where she met Hyuuga Akira and fell in love with him.
She returned to serve as a temporary substitute teacher at Youzhijia Primary School, mainly at the request of Hyuuga Akira, to help Xiao Yan complete the lunar trial.
By getting in touch with Kagura Kanazawa, he can get in touch with Hyuuga Akira earlier, whereas if he waits for Hyuuga Akira to come himself, it will take at least three to four more months.
"Taia, hasn't your father come?"
"He said he couldn't leave the construction site, he was really sorry, and asked me to take as many pictures of Xiao Yan's performance as possible."
Just as he was walking around the school, two tall high school students, just happened to be in front of him.
"The Judge of the Moon and Xiao Yan's brother."
After hearing their conversation and sensing the powerful magic within their bodies, George immediately guessed their identities.
Although he had guessed their identities, he had no intention of making the first move to contact them, as there was no need.
After wandering around the school for a loop, he soon arrived at the school's classroom office area.
"Old gentleman, are you lost? This is the teacher's office. If you want to watch the performance, it's over there. It should start around an hour from now."
In the office, a long-haired female teacher was sorting through items on her desk when she saw George suddenly appear. She was taken aback for a moment and then stood up with a smile.
George smiled and replied:
"You are the teacher that Xiaolang mentioned, isn't it? The strong lunar magic is really apparent."
When Kagura Kanazawa first came to the school as a teacher, Xiaolang immediately realized she was not an ordinary person and kept a watchful eye on her, even wanting to ask for her help in testing something. However, he knew Kanazawa's true identity and never made any moves.
