With less than two weeks to go until the New Year, it was snowing.

It looks like it's snowing a lot this year.

"The cats are curled up under the kota, but my family is cat lovers and can't work in the fields, so they are curled up in the house."

At such times, despite the fact that she was dressed, she was like a big cat, so her desire to fluffy raised her head.

I left the house with the iron rod given by Mr. Zeor, looking at the huddled and writhing family.

The snow outside was naturally cold, but not as cold as I thought it would be because there was a flexible layer of air around my body and I had my own fur.

It was a hassle to go to the mountains, so I started swinging in the nearby snow-covered fields.

You don't have to worry about getting buried in the snow because there are steps for your feet.

Gradually, he began to relax his body, erasing the air that had enveloped him, and fully immersed himself in practicing his swing.

At first, I felt the weight of the stick swaying from side to side, but now I have a stronger feeling that I can control and swing it.

Hitting, stabbing, cutting, sweeping is like a stick becoming a part of your body, constantly swinging it with the desired trajectory and the required force.

The sound of sticks cutting through the cold wind sped me up.

After directly knocking him down, Miguel and the others stopped interfering.

There were six people in total, and even if they grabbed the stick and hit it, they couldn't do any damage at all.

I haven't seen him fight a sword in the riverbed since.

The crucial Miguel doesn't seem to have given up, so he might come up with something more, but I'll take it back when the time comes.

When I finished the basic swing and finished the swing that met Zeor, the sky darkened and it started to snow.

If you use celestial magic to make a roof, you can continue, but that's all for today.

I grabbed the iron rod and ran home to bathe in the well behind the house.

Unlike cats, cat people sweat, so if you leave them alone, they will stink.

"It's well water, and it's not frozen, but it's still cold."

After washing the water and sweating, I shook my body, blew the moisture off, went into the house, and lit the fire in the fireplace.

"I don't think it stinks, but people in my house smell like cats."

When I was doing farm work, I boiled the bath water every day, once every two days during the off-season and once every three days after the snowfall.

I think one of the reasons people despise cat people is the level of foul smell here, but I guess it can't be fixed.

After lunch, I wanted to go outside again to practice magic, but the snow was getting heavier, so I decided to practice it inside.

"Because we were poor, the house was small, there were actually only two rooms."

The cat man's house feels like a mix of old Chinese houses and Western-style architecture.

One of the rooms had a fireplace instead of a stove in a raised floor room connected to the dirt floor of the kitchen.

There are about 6 tatami mats on the floor, but only about 4 tatami mats on the carpet.

After dinner, my mother and sister started knitting as a side hustle, while my father and two older brothers hung out on the carpet.

There is also a room next to it, about the size of 6 tatami mats, but more than half of them are textile tools for home work.

The warp threads cover almost the entire wall, and the pattern is drawn by tying knots of yarn of different colors.

I slept every night in a hammock hanging in the corner of this room.

In my previous life in Huaxia, I had my own room, and although it was four and a half tatami mats, there was absolutely no privacy here.

Well, I'm not old enough to feel that privacy is necessary, and my mother and sister look like cats, so my heart isn't excited.

While my mother and sister were doing side hustles, I started curling up in hammocks practicing detection magic.

The air frozen by the celestial attribute has a sense connection, and I thought of using it to detect it.

The way to do this is to harden the air into particles and spread them radially around me.

The particles are strong enough to break when touched, and the distance and shape can be felt from where they hit and break.

The sound effect of sonar is replaced by air particles.

At first I couldn't even spread the particles apart, but now I can vaguely feel the shape of things, but the speed of movement is still slow.

If it can be deployed at any time at a faster rate and with higher sensitivity, it has the potential to compensate for the loss of vision in the left eye.

After about two hours of training, I couldn't concentrate.

"At times like these, in Huaxia, we drink coffee, but we don't even have tea at home."

"I can't buy canned coffee from a convenience store or vending machine, so I'll ask Grandma Carissa to help me blend the tea."

I didn't want to go out today, so I stretched, tossed and turned, and started another magic practice.

It's another kind of detection magic that can hear distant sounds.

In other words, the plan is to use a magic microphone to pick up distant sounds.

At first, I tried to create the audio microphone itself with magic, but it didn't work.

I have an image of a microphone that I used in karaoke, but although I was able to make the shape, it didn't add anything.

First of all, they don't know what parts the microphone is made of and what principles are used to convert sound into electrical signals.

"So I imagined a human ear."

The ear amplifies the vibrations of the eardrum and recognizes sound through nerve stimulation, so I created the vibrating membrane and the part that senses the vibration, but that doesn't work either.

First, I was able to capture sound with a membrane and feel it as vibration, but I couldn't convert the vibration I felt into sound.

After losing sight in my left eye, I kept trying and recently finally found the cause.

One of the reasons why the sound conversion doesn't go smoothly is that the membrane that captures the vibration has its own sensations.

In addition to the diaphragm, by creating an organ that senses vibrations, the inputs are repeated and interfere with each other, confusing the senses.

Thus, when the organ that senses vibrations is abolished and only the input from the membrane disappears, the confusion of the senses subsides and is finally perceived as sound.

The diaphragm is now about 30 centimeters in diameter, and the sound quality is at the level of a transmutation radio.

I plan to continue training to make it smaller and achieve clearer sound quality.

I'm also experimenting with using sky attribute magic to capture images, but there's no clear prospect yet.

Particles and diaphragms made of celestial properties can be called tactile organs.

Touch and vibration can be felt, but it is difficult to capture the light that is the basis of the image.

For example, it's like trying to see something by holding up the palm of your hand.

I wonder if I can find a breakthrough, but the air solidified by the Heavenly Attribute is transparent, allowing light to pass through.

I feel like this proves that they can't catch the light.

For the time being, let's improve your proficiency in sonar detection magic and hearing magic.

"If the level of these two magic spells increases, it will have the effect of covering the blind spot."

When I was immersed in magic cultivation, it was already evening in the blink of an eye.

Because of the snow, the room was darker than usual.

When it gets dark, it's time for dinner, and when it's over, the family goes to bed.

Lamp oil and magic stones for illumination tools are expensive items for our poor families, so it's time to go to bed at night to save money.

"That being said, is the second brother okay?"

By the New Year, I would be 15 years old, and I couldn't find a job in the village, so I had to go to the city to find a job.

He seems to be working hard in school, and I don't think there's anything wrong with his ability to learn, but in any case, the public perception of cat people is lukewarm.

My body is small and not suitable for heavy work, so I have to appeal with my head.

In my previous life, I lost my life in high school, so I took the high school entrance examination, but I had no experience in finding a job.

It's been ten years since I was reborn into this world, but since I only have the knowledge of the children in the village, I can't give you any advice.

"I hung out in a room with a fireplace from morning till night, so I guess I had a good chance of winning."
