House Witch

　At this time, Artie was in a mixed mood.

On the one hand, after realizing that the person in front of her might not be the liar she expected, but might actually be her teacher, she was very excited and ecstatic.

On the other hand, she was a little uneasy. After all, this kind of thing was so unexpected and even beyond her understanding. This made her feel very insecure. There was always a possibility that this might just be a dream. Waiting for the dream After waking up, you will only find that everything is just a worry.

But Miss Demon King was not an ordinary person after all, and she quickly forced herself to calm down.

She began to clarify her thoughts bit by bit, and was sure that she was indeed impulsive just now, and she actually felt that she was being pranked. But now that she thinks about it carefully, such speculation is actually quite unreasonable.

 After all, she is a "waste" that not many people know.

Although she is indeed a member of the famous Correa family among demons and witches, and a descendant of the famous Black Sheep Sage, she is not a direct member of the direct line, but a collateral line who knows how far away. It's a sideline, but it's really not that eye-catching.

She was even an orphan. After her mothers gave birth to her, they went to the battlefield together to participate in the Great Expedition. However, the two of them were not even great witches. They were just ordinary elite witches. Such strength is really not worth mentioning on the **** frontline battlefield. It's nothing, at best he's an elite combatant, at worst he's a senior cannon fodder.

Therefore, it was no surprise that they never came back and became two inconspicuous numbers among the countless victims in the crazy expedition of the Dragon King era.

 Thanks to the good welfare of the Correa family, which also had special welfare for orphans of martyrs like her, she was later sent to the orphanage run by the family, the Lamb's Home, and grew up there.

Life in the Lamb Courtyard is actually pretty good. At least they don’t have to worry about food and drink. There are also family teachers who come to give them lessons and teach them all kinds of knowledge. They basically have everything they need. The only thing that is relatively scarce is probably all kinds of natural things. Growth resources such as material and land treasures.

Although the family will often allocate some resources to the lamb yard, there are too many lambs in the yard, and it is impossible for everyone to have those resources. They will only be given to the lambs with the highest talent or the best grades in the yard.

 But Atty is neither.

 She can actually be both, but as she mentioned before, she doesn't want to be too conspicuous for the time being.

Her talents are very special and highly hidden, so when the family teacher tested the talents of the little lambs, she hid her talents and became a loser with all R talents.

She also controls her academic performance accurately on weekdays and always maintains it on the edge of the passing line. If her performance is neither above nor below, it is not considered excellent and cannot be praised, but it is not bad and can avoid the penalty of failing.

 Furthermore, this kind of middleman is often the most inconspicuous, and what Artie wants is this inconspicuous feeling.

In short, her life in the Lamb's Home was quite peaceful and stable. At most, she suffered a little bit of bullying from her peers. After all, in an orphanage, this kind of thing happens all the time. No matter how low-key you are, you are still there. It was inevitable, especially since she was a marginalized person with few friends, so she was naturally more likely to be bullied when she was alone.

Hence, the only people who would play pranks on "ordinary witches" like her were probably the bad witches in the Lamb's Yard.

But Artie didn't think that those naive fools had the ability to create such a real and powerful teacher. If those guys really had the ability, they wouldn't be fooled by her using illusions every time to bully the atmosphere. .

Besides, she just drew the teacher's character picture today and prepared the name and character of the teacher. These things are secrets that only she knows. She is also very sure that she was not blocked when she wrote them. People peek.

 So, theoretically speaking, it is indeed impossible for this to be a trap set by others.

 If she really wants to set a trap, then the only person who can do it is probably herself.

Well, the culprit might really be herself.

  After all, if she wanted to realize her original plan, her only difficulty was how to deceive herself.

 In this situation, Artie really can’t tell whether this is a real teacher or a false lie. He can’t tell at all.

So the question is, is this considered a successful deception?

Ms. Demon King also fell into deep thought for a while.

She seems to have achieved the achievement that she deceived herself inexplicably.

She just became more and more suspicious of whether the mastermind behind all this was really herself, although now she had no idea how she could do such an outrageous thing.

 But the problem is that once she understands the secret, there is no way to deceive herself.

Tsk, the logic is in an endless loop.

“Did the future me deceive the present me?”

Atty thought so in her heart. This was the only way she could deceive herself.

  After all, lies are simply an information gap. You know and I don’t know, so you can construct a lie and achieve deception. However, she cannot predict the future now, but she in the future knows everything about her now.

 Therefore, in theory, as long as there is a way to travel through time, self-deception does not seem to be difficult.

 The only question is is it really possible for her to reach that state in the future?

Although Adi has always been quite confident, her fate as the world-destroying demon king and the suppression of the two kings in the sky really made her unsure.

It is precisely this uncertainty about the future that makes her unable to determine the facts now.

But why do we need to make sure? Isn’t this kind of uncertainty what I originally wanted?

Ms. Demon King figured everything out and then smiled.

She suddenly stopped being autistic and asked the witch next to her, who just wanted to eat her flesh, with tears in her eyes and a smile on her face.

“Wow, you actually solved this problem. It’s really amazing. Can I become your teacher?”

 Dorothy: “???”

The otaku witch looked at Artie who suddenly came out of isolation and smiled sweetly, and her head was filled with questions.

  She suddenly felt that this guy was more suitable for his talent of "Thousand Faces" than she was. This guy was perfect for learning Sichuan Opera.

However, this did not prevent her from shaking her head decisively.

"no."

Are you kidding me? The Demon King and the Sage of Lies are good friends, so why do you suddenly become a master and a disciple?

“Hey, my head hurts so much. You must have damaged my brain just now. I suddenly forgot a lot of knowledge. You have to compensate me.”

Atty was not surprised at all by this straightforward rejection.

After all, the teacher was announced unilaterally by her. The teacher in the spiritual world before was just a cold sun who talked in his sleep every day. He probably didn’t know that he, the shadow hiding in the sun, actually respected her as his teacher. .

Well, what does it have to do with you that I want you to be my teacher? Regardless of whether you agree or not, I think it is, so that’s it.

Miss Demon King started to cover her head and started crying.

She just noticed that once she started crying, the teacher would become a little gentler.

  Hehehe, you are indeed my teacher, so gentle.

Atty, who was originally pinched at the waist, put his arms around Dorothy's waist, and then rubbed her.

 Dorothy: "."

Let me go, you are all dirty now, your face is full of tears and snot, crawl on me, don't dirty my clothes, okay, I only have this one piece of clothes now, and I don't even have a change of clothes.

The otaku witch was very disgusted and tried to get rid of this inexplicable guy. It was really hard for her to understand how this guy was so resentful of her just a second ago, and now he was so close to him.

 “Is this related to the question just now?”

Dorothy guessed this in her mind, and then she asked.

“Now can you tell me where the question just came from?”

She was really curious about how the design of the sun, which was supposed to be known only to her, was known to Miss Demon King of this era. This thing should obviously only exist in the dream of the Witch's Night.

 “I dreamed about it.”

Ms. Demon King also answered frankly.

 She did indeed dream about it.

Dorothy: "." The witch rolled her eyes.

 I believe you, you are a ghost, your dreams are connected across generations.

It’s just that, after all, it’s Atti, and it’s perfectly normal to talk nonsense. Who would believe that the wolf is coming from a wolf boy?

Moreover, now that this guy has cheered up, that's a good thing. At least he doesn't have to rack his brains anymore to think of how to comfort this guy.

 She just stretched out her hand to push the dog-skin plaster lady who was always trying to hold her and stick to her as far away as possible, and then continued to follow Fenrir in front of her.

They are now going further and further, passing through several portals, from the previous city center to the suburbs of Night City.

 “Do you usually live so far away?”

Dorothy also asked casually.

They were almost reaching an area similar to a "slum" at this time.

Although the slums of the witches don't look like poor people, after all, families can only live in densely built villa areas, mixed with many alien species, instead of independent sky islands. This is already the poor in the eyes of the witches. .

"Aren't you a great witch? You shouldn't have such a difficult time, right?"

 She asked again with some doubts.

Although Miss Fenrir looks like an illiterate weakling in her eyes, she has to say that her physical fitness and magic talent are actually quite good. This kind of strength is generally not enough unless she is really lazy to a certain extent. Such a miserable mess.

After all, the Great Witch is among the top five percent of the elite in the witch world no matter what era she is in. Not to mention the per capita lords, it is not a big problem to have a mansion, a car, a beautiful woman, and a three-piece set.

But this Miss Fenrir seems to be a bit miserable. Not only does the powerful witch live in the slums, she also has to make money through petty theft, which is really a bit embarrassing.

 Hearing the witch's inquiry, Fenrir, who was leading the way, couldn't help but blush.

  She knew that she was indeed in a bad situation, but she had no choice but to care about her too much.

“Okay, this is it, but sir, can you unlock my transformation now, otherwise I won’t be able to pass the gate.”

The dog-man witch lady requested.

“Actually, I have wanted to help you untie it for a long time, but seeing that you were running very fast, I never found a chance.”

Dorothy scratched her head and said so.

Well, after just escaping from the hands of her second aunt Elizabeth who came over, she wanted to remove Fenrir's dog-changing spell. As a result, she had a battle of wits with Artie, and Miss Dogman Witch seemed to be able to run on four legs. She was quite happy, her little tail kept wagging, and she seemed to be in a good mood, so she didn't make a sound.

 She thought she had accidentally turned on some strange switch on Miss Fenrir.

 Fenrir: "."

She was indeed happy along the way, but she was not happy because she turned into a dog, but because she could turn this powerful but rule-abiding woman into a companion.

Hateful, but she really couldn't explain this reason. After all, she didn't have Mr. Brave's eloquence and charm, so she couldn't convince this guy who was actually quite scary.

Then, Dorothy snapped her fingers, and the big red wolf-like dog on the ground immediately lost its hair, then stood up again and transformed into the tall and fit dog-man witch Fenrir.

“Let me go, teacher, are you having such a good time?”

Atty was also stunned when she saw this. She really didn't realize that the dog leading the way was actually a witch. She really thought it was the teacher's pet.

 But then Miss Demon King was suddenly startled, and then her eyes lit up.

“Teacher, do you still need a dog?”

 Her face was just the right amount of rosy, and her eyes were as charming as silk as she said this.

  She is a succubus after all, so she cannot accept this kind of gameplay. If it is the teacher's xp, then let her be the teacher's favorite little bitch.

 Dorothy: "."

The house witch looked at Miss Demon King in shock.

 No, is there no one else in this world that you care about?

 She was really frightened by Artie's free spirit.

Oh my god, you are worthy of being the Demon King who will let you choose from the Seven Deadly Sins in the future, but in the end he is in charge of the original sin of lust. I can’t even think about how much fun you usually have.

She was too lazy to pay attention to this guy who had no moral integrity at all, and turned around to look at Fenrir's home.

This is also a slum villa community. Although Dorothy looked at it as a high-end villa community from the perspective of a mortal in her previous life, in the witch world, this is indeed a place where lower-class people live.

 “Avalon?”

Dorothy read out the name of the community and curled her lips.

Alright, it’s a bad name for a street. Real estate developers these days love to give it such lofty names. Your place is called Avalon, and her place is called Utopia.

Then the otaku witch couldn't help but remember that the name she chose for Japan's Great Barrier seemed to be Gensokyo.

 Ah, it turns out that I have the qualifications to be a real estate tycoon.

 “Sister Fenrir, you are back.”

Miss Dogman Witch just went to open the door, and a group of children suddenly saw her behind the door and immediately ran over.

Dorothy was stunned when she saw this scene. After all, although there were several little witches among these children, they all seemed to be half-witches, and the others were more of various cubs of different races.

 Good guys, in this world where witches are gods, these little guys are so disrespectful to God?

The Otaku Witch still remembers the trembling and fearful look of the two sisters when she first met the Moon Rabbit sisters in front of her.

However, she quite liked this harmonious scene.

 This is what the future territory of her dream should look like.

 Well, originally she just wanted to find a place to live, but now she kind of likes it here.

Dorothy smiled and looked at the scene not far away where Fenrir took out various snacks from his pocket and gave them to the children. She then scanned the neighborhood with her mental power, and suddenly understood why the great witch lady was so poor. .

only

Dorothy was just about to take back the mental power she had released, but she suddenly felt a terrible force approaching here.

 Are there any experts here?

The house witch was stunned for a moment, and then she glanced over there curiously, but then her expression changed drastically.

Of course, she was not the only one whose expression changed drastically, but also Adi who was hanging on her.

“Teacher, the wind is blowing hard, this is a trap, let’s run quickly.”

Miss Demon King screamed as if she had encountered a natural enemy.

She has indeed encountered a natural enemy. In her perception, a dazzling giant of light is walking towards here step by step, carrying a boundless holy light that can eclipse the sun in the sky.

Her Demon King's destiny was desperately urging her not to stand still and to run away, otherwise she would definitely die.

But no matter how hard Artie pulled, the house witch remained motionless. She just sighed resignedly.

 Alas, you are really my biological father. I can see you in any era, Adam.

  The house witch is sighing
