Chapter 280 253. Kid, this is the territory your mom fought for you.
The three-ring area of Witch Academy, being the absolute central inner zone of the academy, is indeed prime real estate. Only the top-ranked schools or renowned clubs within the academy can claim a spot here.
Yet, even so, space was somehow made within the three-ring area to designate a residential district, where several medium and small luxurious floating islets are neatly arranged.
Anyone could guess that the witches who managed to secure property in such a location must be incredibly wealthy and powerful.
Late at night, under the bright moonlight, a figure with wings on its back flashed briefly across the full moon...
"Ah, this is a real mansion, damn rich people really know how to live."
Dorothy landed on a medium-sized floating islet and then, looking at the huge manor in front of her, she couldn't help but sigh to herself.
She then pressed a button on the manor's gate and, as magic light swept over it, the gate opened.
"Welcome home, Miss."
As the wrought iron gates opened, a gentle female voice sounded, saying just that.
"Oh, it turns out it's my own home, never mind then."
The Home Martial Soul scratched her head, still somewhat unaccustomed to this transition in identity.
Of course, this wasn't because she had suddenly come into a fortune and bought this mansion; rather, this was the residence of her mother, Euphilia.
As a Peak Witch and Dragon Queen, truly a top-tier big shot, it was reasonable for Euphilia to own several properties around the Witch World for temporary use, wasn't it?
"Wow, this is really quite 'temporary'."
After walking for almost half an hour from the entrance, passing through various large and small garden facilities and almost getting lost, Dorothy finally reached the main door of the manor, her emotions complex.
She, too, wished for such a temporary residence.
"Hehe, if you want something like that, Dorothy, you'll have to work hard. This manor was bought by your mother right after she graduated from the academy, and there isn't much time left for you to do the same," said Masked Senior Sister with a laugh.
Dorothy: "....."
Jeepers, Mom, were you really this powerful even when you were a student?
She dared not even think about how much such a sophisticated and luxurious floating islet would cost; she guessed that with that money, she might as well buy a piece of land and become a lord, not to mention that you can't just buy an islet in the three-ring area whenever you want to—without some power and stature, even Witch Academy would not grant you the purchasing rights. The Home Martial Soul found it hard to imagine what her own mother must have done to manage that.
"I feel like the stories here could fill a book; Mom was surely a protagonist back in her day," Dorothy thought to herself.
While she was lost in thought at the door, the main door of the manor opened, and a group of Dragon Witches dressed in black-and-white maid uniforms walked out, each over two meters tall, with figures and demeanors surpassing supermodels, leaving the Home Martial Soul astonished.
"Miss, please follow me; the Family Head is waiting for you in the study," said the leading, distinctly competent, and handsome red-haired Big Sister, presumably the Head Maid, as she bowed reverently before speaking thus.@@novelbin@@
And Dorothy, having never witnessed such a spectacle before, was momentarily dumbfounded.
Wow, they are maids, real professional maids, not the cosplayed fake ones. How cool is that.
She inwardly screamed, for what shut-in could resist the allure of maids?
Yet, no matter how excited she was internally, Dorothy on the outside remained well-behaved, showing no signs of irregularity, because...
"Shoot, each one is a Great Witch, and that freckle on the red-haired Head Maid makes her feel almost like Spider Teacher; she can't be a normal maid."
Feeling her inspiration going haywire, the Home Martial Soul inwardly complained.
"Hehe...got scared, didn't you? Actually, this is Teacher Euphilia's personal maid guard squad, her most elite team. That red-haired Head Maid is named Natasha, a Rainbow Dragon Witch, and also a Peak Witch, one of the three Great Generals under your mother in the Legion of Destruction," said Masked Senior Sister, rushing over to tease and introduce the unfamiliar domain to her ignorant young mistress.
"Ah, the Three Great Generals? Big Sister, you mean to tell me there are two more Peak Witches like my mom under her command?"
Dorothy was dumbstruck as she remembered the fifty-year agreement; she had thought that by that time, she would only have to deal with her own mother, a Peak Witch, and her fleet.
But now you're telling her there are actually four Peak Witches? How is one supposed to live with that?
"Of course, besides the Rainbow Dragon Witch Natasha, there are also the Power Dragon Witch Ineid and the Time Dragon Witch Mavis, each of them a master among the Peak Witches," said Masked Senior Sister without hesitation.
Dorothy: "..."
Well, great, all three legendary Dragon-types are gathered; the opposing side really flies a dragon right in your face, I'd bet my head on it.
Home Martial Soul expressed that she was tired, didn't want to talk, just wanted to lie flat.
In such a complex mood, Dorothy followed behind the Peak Head Maid as she walked into the lair, welcomed by the aisle of Great Witch-Level maids, and then obliviously went upstairs, finally arriving at a room door.
"Miss, we've arrived, the Family Head is inside waiting for you."
The red-haired Head Maid smiled kindly at Home Martial Soul, who somehow started to feel a bit nervous, then bowed and excused herself.
Dorothy took a few deep breaths on the spot, calmed her emotions, and then raised her hand to knock on the door.
Knock, knock, knock...
"Come in."
Dorothy pushed open the door as soon as Teacher Euphilia's familiar voice came from inside.
Upon entering, she saw her mother sitting on the sofa in the study, holding a book, and as soon as she saw her, the Dragon Queen closed the book in her hands and pointed to the sofa opposite her.
"Sit down, you're home now, no need to be so formal."
Sensing her daughter's nervousness, Euphilia smiled gently.
Meanwhile, Dorothy glanced at the cover of the book in her mother's hand.
"How to Get Along with Your Grown Child"
Home Martial Soul: "..."
"Cough, cough..."
Noticing her daughter's gaze, the Dragon Queen immediately coughed and then flung the book behind her back to the bookshelf, where the book fit perfectly into the gap that was missing a book.
However, this action inadvertently drew Dorothy's attention to the bookshelf.
"How to Parent an Authoritative Parent" "Dealing with a Rebellious Period" "How to Promptly Press Your Child into Marriage" "Guide to Raising a Genius Little Witch".....
Ah, this...
Snap... Your next chapter awaits on My Virtual Library Empire
A snap of fingers sounded, and curtains covered all the bookshelves in the study, as if nothing had happened, the Dragon Witch now sitting with a stern face.
"Alright, don't look at what you shouldn't, these are actually all disguised confidential files, Dorothy, if you're going to work in the Judgment Court, you need to manage your curiosity, knowing too much isn't beneficial," said the Chief Judge of the Court impassively.
"Ah right, right, right, Mother Superior said too much, I was thinking the same," Dorothy hurriedly nodded her head like mad.
...Home Martial Soul shivering intensely...
What do you think?
