The Shadow of The Beginning

Chapter 300: Giant Cat and Amnesia

Views:

Columbia looked at Joet Brown who was slowly waking up after being carried to the dormitory by him and asked worriedly,

"How do you feel now?"

Joet Brown took a breath and responded tiredly,

“I’ve gotten used to being unconscious or fainting every day.

Where's the old man?"

"The principal was very worried about you, so since he saw that there was nothing wrong with you, he went to look for treatment methods for you in a book.

He also asked me to tell you not to try to contact that power again for the time being. He has put some temporary seals on you. When he comes back and tests you, he will decide whether to strengthen the seals or let you continue to try. "

“Whatever, we are relatively safe inside Miskatonic University anyway.

I'll just live a normal life for a few days.

This matter . . . "

Joe Butran looked at Columbia, hesitant to speak, and Columbia sighed.

"Don't worry, I won't tell.

They were already worried about you because of what happened last time. If the news of you fainting again got out, that little bitch Sif would probably make a fuss again."

“Well, thank you.

Let them focus on academics first.”

After saying that, it was already getting late.

The two said good night to each other and went to sleep.

——

“Ding ding ding.”

With the ID card prompt, the two people's schedule for today has been updated.

Today is the day that Joet Brown will attend the Mystical Knowledge Studies class for the first time.

His previous sick leave had already caused him to miss several classes, so he probably had a lot of knowledge to catch up on.

After quickly washing up and buying a loaf of bread in the cafeteria, Jobtran followed the map he had memorized in his mind and walked towards the teaching building dedicated to the study of mystical knowledge.

From a distance, you can see the uniquely shaped teaching building.

The triangular and octagonal design looks like a wild beast ready to pounce on its prey, lurking on this barren land.

When I stepped into the door of the teaching building, I didn't see any human figure. Instead, I saw a brain placed in preservation fluid.

“Oh, there are new faces.

Hello, young man."

An emotionless voice came from the small speaker under the jar holding the brain.

A trace of unnaturalness flashed across Joet Brown's face. There was clearly no one around. Could it be that the voice was coming from the control of that floating brain

"Hey, don't stare at me like that.

I don’t have any clothes on now~"

It was still that emotionless voice, but it spoke in such a strange girlish tone.

"Excuse me, is this the teaching building for the study of mystical knowledge?"

asked Joe Butran uncertainly.

"Of course, I'm Mrs. Katyusha, welcome, handsome young man."

"Um, hello, Madam Katyusha, my schedule only states that we should gather here, but there are no instructions for the next step.

What should I do now? "

Joet Brown scratched his head and asked in confusion to the only brain that could be questioned now - Mrs. Katyusha.

"Hehe, just wait.

They are coming soon.”

"them?"

Just as Joet Brown was about to ponder the meaning of their word, a subtle tremor began to shake the ground.

The dust on the ground began to resonate with the vibrations that moved from far to near, swaying up and down, left and right.

What followed was the screams of a large group of people and the roars of wild beasts.

At the end of the corridor, a very embarrassed and panting figure appeared. He saw Joet Brown at a glance and immediately ran in the direction of Joet Brown and shouted,

"What are you standing there for? Do you want to die?!

Run with me!!”

When the man passed by Joet Brown, he grabbed Joet Brown, who was confused, and pulled him to run madly.

As Joet Brown ran, he looked back out of the corner of his eye.

Behind him, there were a dozen people dressed as students, also running for their lives and holding their breath. They were both men and women, but now they all had fear on their faces. Behind them was a huge cat, an orange cat.

Staring with a pair of curious big eyes, it jumped and chased them, as if it was playing an interesting game of cat and mouse.

However, it is obvious that these students are playing the role of mice at this time.

Sitting on the cat was a woman who was very familiar to Joet Brown. When he saw the woman's face clearly, the corner of Joet Brown's eyes twitched.

"Selena, I want to run too?"

Joe Butran turned back and asked Selina.

Selina on the cat narrowed her eyes and took a look. Selina had never seen Joet Brown in this state before, so she sneered.

"I don't know you."

When Jobtran saw Selena's reaction, he thought it was just Selena's way of avoiding suspicion, so he could only helplessly run with the students.

But he never thought about the problem that Selena didn't recognize him.

Joet Brown asked the classmate who was running with him with a relaxed look,

"Hey, man, how long do we have to run?"

“It all depends on Teacher Serena’s mood.

Our classes in the past few days were just running and we didn’t learn anything.”

"????"

When Joet Brown heard this, several question marks immediately appeared in his head.

"What does this running have to do with the study of occult knowledge?"

“I don’t know either, but if a cat catches up with you and pats you, you’ll be slapped away.

Although the school doctor is very skilled, we can’t afford to lose our credits!”

Joet Brown exerted a little force on his hands and shook off the buddy who was holding him with such good intentions.

He stopped, turned around immediately, and ran towards Selina, the direction of the big cat that was meowing.

The face of the boy who was leading earlier changed drastically.

"Don't go and die!"

But thinking of the cat's strength, he gritted his teeth and continued to run ahead without looking back.

Selina saw Joet Brown running towards her and narrowed her eyes.

Although she hadn't recognized the man as Jobtran, she noticed that he was very agile and his movements were obviously much more decisive than those of the laymen.

Every sprint step can bring faster speed to the next step. This is a very clever fighting skill, but this person uses it very skillfully.

"Mimi, pat him~"

Selina gently rubbed the big cat's ears, and the big cat under Selina stopped and squinted its round eyes into a cute arc comfortably.

It stretched out its furry front paw, and the pink little ball of flesh at the center of the paw slapped towards Joet Brown's position.

If he hits him, Joet Brown will fly backwards.

If you are unlucky, you may even fall against the wall.

Jobtran exerted force on his feet, jumped lightly, and leaped in the direction of the cat's claws.

He stepped lightly on the cat's elastic paw and used the force to change his direction, heading towards the cat's neck.

Although the cat was big, it instinctively felt fear when it saw Jobtran rushing towards it at high speed.

It immediately stretched out its hidden claws and grabbed towards Joet Brown's position with its other claw.

But Jobtran was quick-witted and quick-handed. Before the claw could strike, he tore off an inconspicuous talisman from the bell hanging around the cat's neck.

Upon seeing this, Selina immediately did a backflip and landed steadily, while Joet Brown shrank into the fat belly under the cat before the claws could hit him.

The students who were gradually going away noticed that the cat did not chase them. Instead, they boldly hid in the corners and poked their heads out to peek at Jobtran's reckless fight.

As the spell lost its effect, the cat's body returned to its original shape in an instant.

Joet Brown took a half step back and stretched out his hands to catch the fat cat falling from the air.

He scratched the cat's chin gently, and the cat closed its eyes affectionately and made a soothing purring sound.

"Classmate, what do you mean?"

Selena was obviously a little unhappy. She put one hand on her waist and took out the blackboard stick with the other hand, ready to punish Joet Brown.

"You're so grumpy today?"

Joet Brown smiled, gently crossed the cat's arms and handed it over.

"Here, I'll give it back to you. Let the students have their lessons properly.

Physical training is necessary, but it should not take up students’ time.”

When Selena heard what Joet Brown said, she obviously felt that her dignity as a mentor was trampled upon. She ignored Joet Brown's action of handing over the cat, but instead raised her blackboard stick as if she was going to hit him.

"Don't act like I know you very well, classmate. Today is just the first time I meet you.

Don't think that just because you called in sick, I'm giving you the privilege to challenge my authority as a mentor.

Tell me your name and I will deduct your credits."

Jobtran was speechless and simply put the cat on his head.

"Jotter Brown. G. Rossat.

What? Does it sound familiar

The Wolf of Umr, are you familiar with it?"

The cat happened to meow, as if mocking Selina, but Selina looked at Jobtrud coldly.

“Never.”

Joet Brown's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

He looked at Selena's expression, and there was no falsehood or hypocrisy in either his eyes or his tone.

"Well, every time you saw me before, you would ask me if I wanted to see what color underwear you were wearing..."

Choate Brown asked tentatively.

"Humph, you frivolous fellow.

Please check your ID card. I have deducted ten credits from you."

Serena turned her head and shouted to the other students,

"Come back here, everyone. If you don't run twenty laps today, you'll be fired."

After she finished shouting, Selina frowned slightly and said something to Joe Butran.

"You have to run too. When you're done, go to the dean's office. I'm going to teach you a profound lesson."

Joet Brown covered his face. He probably had guessed what had happened.

Judging from the information on his ID card, Selena actually deducted ten credits from him.

Judging from her expression and words, Selena really doesn't recognize herself.

There are only two ridiculous possibilities: first, Selena wants to show her power to him; second, Selena really has lost her memory.

According to Joet Brown's conjecture, the possibility of amnesia is very high.

Despite the school doctor's superb skills, there is no guarantee that he will be able to help Serena fully recover.

It's like post-traumatic stress disorder, where you subconsciously ignore some aspects of your memory.

The appearance of the fallen god, the moon god Kongs, is related to himself, so Selena also forgot about herself during her recovery process.

This is a very likely conjecture.

After running twenty laps in a boring way, other students with poor physical fitness were panting and sticking out their tongues to slow down, and some of them even lay directly on the ground.

Joet Brown's expression was relaxed and casual. Apart from some sweat on his forehead and back and a slight blush on his face caused by the heat, he did not move at all.

His body was still light and lithe, and twenty laps were just an appetizer before exercise for him.

With two light hops on his feet, Joet Brown said goodbye to the talkative Mrs. Katyusha and walked to the so-called dean's office.

He stood in front of the door with mixed feelings.

From inside came Selina's various accusations against herself, while Arnold inside the door had a stern face and was seriously trying to hold back his laughter.

"Since you're here, come in."

Arnold shouted to the door.

"Master, I have recovered."

After Joet Brown entered, he saluted Arnold respectfully.

"Yeah, I'm glad you're okay, but the way you look now..."

Arnold looked up and down at Joet Brown, whose appearance had changed drastically, and even walked up to Joet Brown and took a closer look as if no one was around.

"Just think of it as a beauty treatment."

Joet Brown spread his hands helplessly.

"Hey, hey, hey, how can you, a shameless person, talk to the dean of the department?"

Selina said with her hands on her hips in dissatisfaction.

"this..."

Joet Brown pointed at Serena.

"How do you explain it?"

“It’s hard to describe the damage caused by the backlash of mental illusions.

Now even if you say you are her former lover, she won’t recognize you...

In her current memory, everything related to the test has been instinctively blurred, and your memory is completely forgotten."

Arnold sighed and explained to Joet Brown.

“It was expected, but it was also unexpected.

I am hated now.”

Joet Brown whispered in Arnold's ear,

"What do we do now?"

"You... just wish you the best. Just admit your inferiority. Maybe you'll remember it later?"

Arnold patted Joet Brown's shoulder gently, with an expression that said, "The responsibility of the world is entrusted to you."

"After all this, I am the victim again."

Joet Brown rolled his eyes, turned around and bowed sincerely to Selina.

"Teacher Serena, please forgive me."

Arnold showed a deeply gratified and touching expression.

"Good kids, those who take the initiative to apologize are good kids.

Teacher Selina, please forgive him."

Selina bit her red lips lightly, snorted, and then nodded slightly.

She turned and left, closing the door behind her, but then she heard a dull knocking sound.

“Hahahahaha!”
