Zheng Qing's two rune guns were ultimately taken away by the Yellow Flower Cat.
The Yellow Flower Cat said it could ask Mr. Wu to repair Zheng Qing's guns.
According to the Yellow Flower Cat, having Mr. Wu repair the rune guns would not only cost nothing—after all, Zheng Qing was his student—but Mr. Wu could also upgrade the runic spells on the guns, ensuring that after firing another two shots, the inscriptions would not suffer damage and wear again.
It sounded good, but the young scholarship student strongly suspected that the more important reason the Yellow Flower Cat had done this was to limit his "destructive power." After all, he now had a record. Of the two shots he had fired recently, one had blown up the Descendant of Sato Guya, while the other had nearly killed a student at the school.
If Zheng Qing did not want to spend the rest of his life alone in Danhaag's special prison, a certain degree of self-restraint was absolutely necessary.
Professor Yao's reaction to the matter said it all.
When the Yellow Flower Cat took away Zheng Qing's two rune guns, he approved while holding his pipe.
"Even if you hadn't taken them, the Academy had planned to 'safekeep' Zheng Qing's rune guns for him." Old Yao clenched his pipe between his teeth, puffing out clouds of smoke as he added with a chuckle, "That safekeeping only applies on campus... First University is a school, after all, not a hunting team arena, nor is it the free hunting grounds of the New World. Allowing students to carry spellbooks is already very lenient."
"Perhaps you should draft a new school rule that forbids students from normally carrying any magical items with excessive destructive power," the Yellow Flower Cat suggested, covering its nose.
