Weeks pass, and he doesn't catch a single card.
When cards become active, he goes looking. They just disappear before he gets there.
He's getting worried, and he's not sure he's satisfied with Kero's explanations.
He tries to focus on school.
The sorcerer walks through his neighborhood, switching to a jog as he leaves.
He follows the trail for a few minutes before stopping, and looking to the sky.
"This is embarrassing, I'm honestly surprised you've made it this long. Kerberos, how are you supporting this?"
"He doesn't know anything about being the cardcaptor. Clow was brilliant, obviously something went wrong with his plan, he would never choose someone this stupid."
"No. I think I know more than you. Whatever Clow has planned has got to be more complicated than this."
"...Clow never said anything about a second cardcaptor. And anyway the book is the only thing that can choose cardcaptors."
"...no? He said I was going to guide the new master of the cards someday, and that the book would choose..."
"It doesn't matter who's the cardcaptor, does it? We both want to stop the cards from hurting people."
"Clow obviously needed someone to take the fire from the cards while the true cardcaptor prepared himself."
"I'm not sure we do. Leave. My neighborhood, my town, whatever. At least let me enjoy a nice jog."
"Because you'll lose? Have a nice day."
And that seems to be that, with how he runs out of there.
