Chapter 267: Full-Level Household Magic (First Update)
Chapter 267: Full-Level Household Magic (First Update)
In the living room, Sakura, wearing an apron, was making a phone call with a look of apology on her face:
"I'm so sorry, Tomoyo. I completely forgot that it was my turn to clean today!"
Originally, she had planned to go camping with Tomoyo today, but in the morning, she realized that because Rika had a piano recital a few days ago, she had asked her brother Toya to swap cleaning duties with her.
"It can't be helped. Don't worry about it, Sakura. You should do your best with the housework!"
After comforting Sakura, Tomoyo hung up the phone and looked at the table full of carefully prepared camping snacks, her expression filled with disappointment.
"Ding dong!"
Just as Sakura hung up, she heard the doorbell ring.
"I'm coming!"
"Good morning, Sakura. It's Sunday today, and I was a bit worried you might not be home."
Jerry watched as Sakura opened the door and waved at her with a smile.
Actually, he had seen Sakura inside the house from the second floor of the building across the street and only came over after confirming she was home.
"Good morning, Jerry. I was supposed to go camping with Tomoyo today, but I forgot that I had to do the housework this week, so..."
Sakura invited Jerry in and began to vent her early morning frustrations.
Hearing Sakura's concerns, Jerry couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Children without mothers indeed had a harder time.
Sakura's father was a professor of archaeology at Toudai University and was often busy with work. Her brother Toya was a second-year high school student who mostly worked part-time jobs during his free time.
So, the household chores were divided among the three of them.
This meant that Sakura, a ten-year-old fourth-grader, had to take on the responsibility of doing housework.
Although the family atmosphere at home was very good, if her mother were still alive, Sakura wouldn't have had to deal with housework at her age.
This also made Jerry think of his sister Aisha.
Aisha never had to do any housework at home because he, as her older brother, took care of it all. Without him, Aisha would have had to take on the burden of housework from a young age.
Doing housework early can certainly help a child grow, but letting them enjoy their childhood without the worries of housework and the hardships of life can also be a form of happiness.
"Sakura, call Tomoyo and tell her you can make it to the camping trip on time!"
"But what about the housework?"
Hearing Jerry's words, Sakura was taken aback.
Jerry smiled:
"Don't worry, leave it to me!"
"No, no, how can I let Jerry do the housework? I'll go out and play."
Sakura immediately shook her head. After all, Jerry was a guest, and it would be impolite to have a guest do housework.
"What a considerate child, but the more considerate they are, the more heartbreaking it is!"
As someone who had been very considerate since childhood, Jerry understood Sakura's feelings well.
"Haha, you forgot that Jerry is a Mage. Doing housework, of course, means using Magic."
Jerry snapped his fingers, and the Household Magic was activated.
Instantly, all the cleaning tools in the house began to move on their own under Jerry's Magic. The broom started sweeping, the mop followed closely behind, and the used plates and bowls from the kitchen flew into the sink.
This incredible scene left Sakura completely stunned.
Since releasing the Clow Cards, she had encountered a lot of Magic, but this scene still had a significant impact on her young mind.
At this moment, she finally experienced the true charm of magic.
"Hey, what's going on?"
In the bathroom, Kero, who was about to throw clothes into the washing machine, suddenly noticed that the clothes, under the influence of a special magical power, began to wash themselves. He quickly flew out.
"Good morning, Kero!"
Jerry waved at Kero.
Seeing Kero appear, Sakura immediately hugged him and explained happily:
"It's Brother Jerry's magic! Now we can go camping!"
"Magic?"
Kero looked at the magical scene around the house and was taken aback. Was there such a type of magic that could do housework? He had followed Clow Reed for so many years, yet he had never heard of it.
While Clow Reed's magic was indeed remarkable, even capable of manipulating time with his own power, Jerry, who had mastered three major magical systems, clearly had a broader and deeper understanding of various types of magic.
"Ah, I seem to have found something interesting!"
At that moment, Jerry's face lit up with a smile.
It turned out that the broom, while sweeping the living room, had discovered a Clow Card under the carpet, and the vacuum cleaner, while cleaning the basement, had found another Clow Card stained with ink.
"The well-tempered Wood Card and the mischievous Rain Card!"
Seeing the two Clow Cards being drawn to Jerry's hand by his mind control magic, Kero immediately shouted excitedly.
"It seems we're having a lucky day, everything is so clean."
Jerry handed the Wood Card, which had a spirit resembling a young girl, to Sakura, and then cast a Purification Spell on the Rain Card to instantly remove the ink, revealing a spirit in the form of a small child.
As the ink disappeared, the small child opened its eyes and immediately displayed a mischievous expression, beginning to gather its magical power.
However, Jerry, sensing the magical power fluctuations, directly tapped the Rain Card, forming a Sealing Magic Array that locked the card's magical power, preventing it from using its rain-inducing ability.
The Wood Card and Rain Card were not particularly powerful cards, and their magical power was not strong before they recognized a master.
"Sakura, quickly sign your name on the back of the Clow Cards with a pen!"
Sakura immediately gave the instruction.
Besides using the Bird-headed Wand to cast a Sealing Spell, signing one's name on the back of a Clow Card with a pen could also make the card recognize its master.
Sakura quickly grabbed a pen from the table, took the Rain Card from Jerry, and signed her name on the back, then did the same for the Wood Card.
"Sakura, this is the Flight Card. I've studied it and can return it to you!"
Seeing Sakura capture the Wood Card and Rain Card, Jerry took out the Flight Card and handed it to her.
Sakura took the Flight Card and brought out all the Clow Cards she had:
"Brother Jerry, which cards do you want this time?"
"Let's go with the Wood Card and Rain Card!"
Jerry thought for a moment and then replied.
Originally, he had planned to choose between the Wind Card and the Water Card, but now that he had the Wood Card and Rain Card, he changed his mind.
Wind and Water were both high-level elemental cards, and even with his current magical foundation, studying them thoroughly would not be easy.
It would be better to start with the Wood and Rain Cards. This would help him become more familiar with the formation of Clow Cards and understand more of Clow Reed's magical concepts, making it easier to study the Wind and Water Cards later on.
Moreover, the combination of Wood and Rain was not as simple as it seemed.
