Chapter 367 The Deathly Hallows - The Cloak of Invisibility
After sending Tomoyo away as well.
Wang Changsheng stood silently in place.
Wait a moment.
However, nothing happened.
Wang Changsheng's lips twitched slightly as his gaze fell upon the woods ahead.
"Little wolf, what are you doing standing there, neither coming out nor leaving?"

Still nothing.
However, Wang Changsheng glanced at the system notification, shook his head helplessly, and sighed.
"Don't hide behind the tree and keep quiet, I know you're there."
[Message]: Your friendly interaction made Little Wolf a little embarrassed~
[Message]: You have obtained the Harry Potter Deathly Hallows artifact—the Invisibility Cloak!
[Message]: Li Xiaolang's negative points +1000
【Invisibility Cloak】: The Deathly Hallows in the Harry Potter world. Compared to other cloaks made of the fur of the Invisible Beast or ordinary cloaks that have been enchanted with the Disillusionment Charm, these cloaks usually lose their effectiveness over time. Only the Invisibility Cloak, as a Deathly Hallows, is permanently effective.
"An invisibility cloak?"
Wang Changsheng blinked.
This reward is pretty good.
With the invisibility cloak at his disposal, if he were to further conceal himself by making himself invisible, then as long as Wang Changsheng wanted to hide himself, virtually no one would be able to find him.
How did you know I hadn't left yet?
As Wang Changsheng finished speaking, the little wolf emerged from behind a tree some distance away.
A faint magical aura emanated from Wang Changsheng, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared before the little wolf.
"Of course I knew you were there. Your presence was so obvious, and I was already familiar with it. Sakura and the others are all gone, how could I not sense you?"
Wang Changsheng curled his lip.
The storm created by the Storm Card just now completely washed away all other scents from the back of the school.
Fresh and pleasant.
After Sakura and the others left, their presence was faint, but Syaoran stood there like a little fireball. It would be strange if Wang Changsheng couldn't sense him.
"Didn't you just say you were going to walk home by yourself? What's the meaning of hiding there now?" Wang Changsheng's gaze fell on the little wolf.
"Um—" Little Wolf chuckled awkwardly.
He didn't have the same methods as Wang Changsheng to conceal his aura or reduce his presence.
I originally thought that hiding so far away would prevent me from being discovered.
He was caught red-handed.
"I was worried that you guys would run into some trouble again, so I thought I'd wait until you left before I left. If Changsheng hadn't called me out just now, I would have left already," the little wolf argued.
"Oh~"
Wang Changsheng looked at him: "So, it was me who bothered you?"
"No, not really—" the little wolf shook his head.
Seeing his appearance, Wang Changsheng took a deep breath.
I feel like I'm just a mediator among these little brats.
One minute you have to appease this person, the next you have to comfort that person.
Although his combined age across both lifetimes is not young.
But for now, he is just a simple, cute, and innocent little boy!
Oh well, it's my fate.
Wang Changsheng exhaled a breath of stale air, then waved his hand, using magic to clean the wolf cub thoroughly, removing all the water stains from its body.
As the object of Wang Changsheng's magic, the little wolf could clearly feel the magic power surrounding him, gently caressing his entire body.
That's why the little wolf's face turned red in an instant.
So, was it this way that Kinomoto and Daidouji were cleansed from their bodies by Chosei?
"What are you thinking about? Your expression looks strange."
Because the storm had created some rain, and because the little wolf had gone directly into the eye of the storm, he was particularly wet.
Wang Changsheng helped him clean it up.
After withdrawing the magic, Wang Changsheng looked at the other party's expression and asked with some doubt.
The little wolf immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum: "No, nothing—"
"Really?" Wang Changsheng looked at him suspiciously, not believing it.
"Of course it's true!" The little wolf looked back at him earnestly.
Seeing how certain he was of himself, Wang Changsheng didn't dwell on it too much and instead started to work on his mindset.
"It's nothing, it's nothing. But Syaoran, to be honest, don't talk about Sakura like that next time. I've told you about these things before, and it's really not nice of you to talk about her like that."
Children are children; they need to be guided from a young age.
Wang Changsheng spoke to Xiaolang in the tone of an old father, earnestly instructing him: "I know you know very well in your heart that Sakura becoming a Cardcaptor Sakura is an unchangeable thing, after all, she is the new master that Cerberus himself has acknowledged."
"In other words, even if you want to deny this fact, you'll have to wait until you've captured all the Clow Cards. But then again, even if you do capture the Clow Cards, how will you seal them away without Sakura?"
"Are you Cardcaptor Sakura?"
No, you are not.
"In that case, you have to let Sakura finish the final work. Whether it's you or Sakura who captures the Clow Cards, you can't interfere with that, can you?"
"Or do you have your own way of sealing the Clow Cards?"
Little Wolf remained silent while Wang Changsheng spoke.
I don't know if he listened to what I said.
Regardless of whether he listens or not, Wang Changsheng is determined to make things clear to him this time.
He didn't want his Sakura to suffer any more inexplicable grievances in the future.
Moreover, Wang Changsheng knew that Xiaolang's words, besides being a matter of youthful arrogance, definitely also contained an element of not wanting Sakura to continue participating in the task of capturing the Clow Cards.
As for whether he simply wanted to monopolize the Clow Cards or didn't want others to take the risks, only Syaoran himself knows the answer; it's a matter of opinion.
"Since you're not saying anything, you probably don't have this method either, right?"
Wang Changsheng didn't believe that Xiaolang's family would know how to seal the Clow Cards.
Kuro could not possibly have left such a record for the Li family.
"Instead of having Sakura only seal the Clow Cards at the end, why not let her participate in the process of capturing the Clow Cards as well?"
"Is it because you're afraid you can't compare to Sakura, and you'll feel ashamed in the end?"
Wang Changsheng directly used one of the most effective methods to deal with this grade level—provocation.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, the little wolf immediately started shouting loudly.
"I'm afraid of her? How could that be!"
The little wolf spoke with absolute certainty, and Wang Changsheng chuckled upon hearing this.
"That's right. Since you're not afraid, whether you or Sakura manage to get the Clow Cards in the end, it's all based on your own abilities. You don't need to say those things about Sakura. Besides, you were indeed a bit too reckless back then. Just because you knew the general information about the Clow Cards beforehand doesn't mean you can't let others find out the enemy's situation."
Wang Changsheng looked at the little wolf with a profound and inscrutable expression: "I believe you have also heard this saying—'Despise the enemy strategically, but take the enemy seriously tactically.'"
"You rushed in recklessly just now, and perhaps you were somewhat confident, but what if something unexpected happened? What if I didn't react in time to save you? Have you considered the consequences?"
Wang Changsheng kept throwing questions at the little wolf, causing his mind to go blank.
However, things were somewhat different from what Wang Changsheng had predicted. While Xiao Lang's words might have offered some insight, they mostly left him pondering—
Is Changsheng worried about my safety?
It seems I still hold some weight in Changsheng's heart!
hehehe~
So happy!
Seeing that the little wolf had become silent again, looking deep in thought.
Wang Changsheng thought he was reflecting on his actions and showed an expression of "this kid is teachable."
He gently patted the little wolf's shoulder twice and gave his final summary.
"Sakura has only been exposed to magic for a few months, but she can already use it proficiently. To be honest, Sakura's future achievements will definitely be high."
"So, Syaoran, you don't need to say that I'm always helping Sakura or anything like that. If you really encounter any danger, I'll help you too! We're all friends, after all."
"As for the remaining Clow Cards, I suggest we work together to retrieve all the Clow Cards that could cause serious harm before discussing their final ownership."
Wang Changsheng looked at the little wolf with a smile.
First, stabilize his morale.
As for who gets the Clow Cards in the end...
Wang Changsheng wasn't worried about anything at all.
Could Kuro really let Syaoran actually take the cards?
Giving him a few now is just temporarily storing them with him for safekeeping, and incidentally, making him a competent tool.
A tool person should act like a tool person.
As someone who's just a tool, how can they still occasionally produce sarcastic remarks?
"Okay, I'll listen to you," the little wolf mumbled in a low voice.
"Why are you saying you have to listen to me? It's like I'm asking you to do this. Have you thought this through?" Wang Changsheng asked, somewhat puzzled.
He always felt that Little Wolf's attitude was sometimes inexplicable.
"I've thought it through," the little wolf said weakly.
"Alright, alright."
Wang Changsheng waved his hand: "Since you've thought it through, then go home."
He snapped his fingers, and the fan's Anywhere Door instantly appeared in front of Little Wolf.
"Don't go back, why are you being so childish?" Although she really was a child—
"(One.) Hmm." The little wolf nodded, obediently turned the doorknob, then turned around to say goodbye to Wang Changsheng before going inside.
"call"
After seeing everyone off, Wang Changsheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's really not easy. It feels like I'm coaxing a child every day."
Thinking this, Wang Changsheng laughed again.
"But this feeling is also quite magical, especially when I'm comforting Sakura. Ah~ Sakura is so kawaii!"
Wang Changsheng shook his head, his heart leaping with joy at the thought of Xiaoying.
"(“) Sakura is so soft and cuddly, it feels so good to hug her."
Stretching lazily, Wang Changsheng also turned the doorknob.
"Finally, I can go home and rest. Let's go see what Tiga and the others did to those two ugly monsters."
Pushing open the door, Wang Changsheng found himself in his bedroom.
After returning from Moonshadow Island, Wang Changsheng had a general idea of what had happened to the water ghosts and fishmen he had encountered in the sea.
He had mentioned it before.
It's just that we're not entirely sure yet.
However, not knowing their identities is not the most important thing.
Wang Changsheng simply tossed the fishman and water ghost to his pets as sparring partners.
Because it turns out these two guys seem to be pretty tough.
Even if you get injured, the wound will heal quickly on its own.
Moreover, Wang Changsheng was not worried that they would hurt his pets.
The Little World Tree has its own will.
Wang Changsheng directly instructed it to communicate with Yui.
If the fishman and the water ghost dare to do anything outrageous, let the little World Tree help suppress them and give them a good beating.
If this happens a few more times, no matter how arrogant and self-important these two guys are, they can only be like those ghosts who are suppressed by the magic array, barely surviving while acting as power banks, giving everything for Wang Changsheng.
At Kinomoto's house.
In Sakura's bedroom.
By this time, she had almost finished tidying up her room.
Right now, he's sitting on the floor leaning against the bed, one hand supporting his chin, bent over, almost collapsing onto the bed, looking utterly miserable.
"Xiao Ke, do you think I'm really useless to Xiao Wang?"
Sakura sighed and said to Kero beside her, "I don't think I was of much help with the two Clow Cards we encountered today. Xiao Wang dispelled the Mist Card, and Li defeated the Storm Card. I was just a sealer who needed to act as a lock at the end, and most importantly—"
Sakura covered her face: "I actually tripped and fell in front of Xiao Wang, how embarrassing!"
"Xiao Ke, do you feel the same way, Xiao Ke?"
Sakura said several things to Kero, but received no response.
She lowered her hand, revealing her two big eyes, and saw that Xiao Ke was sitting cross-legged on the bed with her back to her, her head down, seemingly lost in thought.
"What are you thinking about, Xiao Ke? Are you even listening to me?"
Sakura leaned forward, getting a little closer to Kero.
But after calling her twice, Xiao Ke still ignored her.
Sakura immediately puffed up her cheeks in anger.
She took a deep breath and then shouted, "Xiao Ke—!"
「Ah!!!∑(°A°)ノ」
It was as if a thunderclap exploded in Xiao Ke's ears, startling it greatly.
"What are you doing? You shouted so loudly, you scared me to death!"
Xiao Ke was so angry that she pounded the bed sheet with her little fists and roared to the sky.
"I was just trying to figure out how you could beat that brat from the Li family!"
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Sakura's confidence immediately faltered, and she gave an awkward laugh. "Oh, I'm sorry!"
After saying goodbye, she turned around, a hint of anticipation on her face, and asked Xiao Ke on the bed, "So, what method have you come up with?"
"method----"
