Chapter 498: 407. Strange Fate_2
"Senior, are you alright?"
As soon as Sugar Mommy arrived, Dorothy hurriedly asked with caution. She felt somewhat guilty since she had originally promised to have a good time with her senior, but then she got obsessed with her magic research and didn't know if Senior Mia had enjoyed herself.
"Of course, I'm fine. I've completely recovered. And now that I know how powerful you little fairy are, I won't hold back next time. Let's bomb each other. I didn't even use a spell scroll this time," Senior Mia replied with a radiant smile, as she waved her hand through the air, showing off her "ammunition depot" to her sweetheart.
Dorothy: "...."
Seeing the mountainous pile of various spell scrolls in Senior Mia's treasure trove, the Homebody Witch's face froze, and she became somewhat stupefied.
Damn it, so Hundred Curses All at Once could be achieved in such a manner?
Spell Scrolls only require a bit of magic power to tear and activate, releasing the sealed spells within—how convenient is that? Let's not even talk about Hundred Curses All at Once; even if it were a thousand or ten thousand curses, it would still be a piece of cake. This is the true perfection of multiple casting, the only problem is...
Wuwuwu, if only I were this rich too. Damn it, you wealthy evils, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have money.
The Homebody Witch fell into self-isolation.
Even as a top scholar, this was something she truly couldn't learn.
Although she could also make spell scrolls, she couldn't afford the materials for so many scrolls, especially since the higher-level spell scrolls required even more luxurious and precious paper and ink.
Of course, she wouldn't claim that using spell scrolls in a duel was illegal or anything. After all, Senior Mia's profession was an Alchemist, and it's completely normal for Alchemists to use spell scrolls. The various spell scrolls and other magic-sealed gems and artifacts in her senior's treasure trove seemed, by their aura of magic, to be personally crafted by her.
Thus, it was completely reasonable and legitimate for Senior Mia to use these tools in a duel. It's just that, damn, they're overpowered, making it hard for others to play along.
Reality is indeed a trash game with zero balance. The game devs won't nerf these rich patrons; it's simply intolerable.
Dorothy shivered with indignation for a while.
Afterward, they played a few more rounds, and even Senior Fanny couldn't help but jump in for a duel, facing off against Sophia. Unfortunately, there wasn't much to say about that battle, as it wasn't much of a duel, just Senior Fanny teasing the Pure White Witch single-handedly. Even though Senior Fanny's powers were suppressed under duel rules, Sophia couldn't do anything about her.
After all, as The Fourth King destined by heavenly mandate, Senior Fanny was too precious. The Pure White Witch tried to alter her fate and was directly backlash so badly she vomited blood—there was no coping with that.
Later, to console her roommate, Dorothy also reentered the ring for another round with her, which left Sophia even more self-isolated.
The Homebody Witch had known for a long time that her Destiny Pattern was strange—after all, she couldn't use the Power of Fate at all. The Divination Department's various fate-altering spells were almost impossible for her to learn; she couldn't even sense her own fate to begin with, let alone learn what followed.
At best, she could only study some Observing Qi Techniques and Divination spells that observe fate. As for changing fate, she was utterly clueless.
Moreover, Senior Fanny had even mentioned during their first meeting that she couldn't observe Dorothy's fate.
This time, the Homebody Witch wondered if Sophia, the favored daughter of fate, could grasp her destiny. But after the Pure White Witch stared for a long time, she was baffled to the point of turning into a question mark.
According to Sophia's words, the young lady's fate was constantly changing. It didn't have a fixed Destiny Pattern like ordinary people. Her fate was jumping all over the place; at one moment, it was as cheap as dirt, the next it was priceless. Every observation yielded a completely different result.
The Pure White Witch had never seen such a free and unrestrained Destiny Pattern and thus couldn't modify the young lady's fate. After all, as soon as you change it, Destiny Pattern would just hop to another line.
So, the summary is...
High EQ: Young lady, your future has endless possibilities.
Low EQ: Young lady, your destiny is like it's being drawn in a random lottery.
Sophia even started to doubt whether her young lady was really human at that point; the bizarre fate seemed like someone had made her a fake ID carelessly, and every time someone checked her ID, a random certificate was generated for them to see.
Of course, this ever-changing fate could also be a cover, akin to a firewall, designed to keep people from glimpsing the true destiny of the young lady.
But the latter possibility seemed a bit far-fetched, after all, what kind of Destiny Pattern would need to be treated with such care, and how powerful must the person be to set up such an outrageous firewall?
Perhaps only Fate itself could play with destiny like that, and even her mother, the Lord of Glory, who claimed to be the incarnation of fate, might not be able to pull off such an exaggerated feat.
But then again, why would Fate go to such lengths to conceal an individual? It just didn't seem realistic.
Considering that her own lady was a rare Soul from Another World, Sophia thought that this peculiar fate might be due to the fact that the lady was a foreigner, and the destiny of foreigners did not match the destiny system of the Witch World.
Dorothy agreed with this conjecture. She remembered the chaotic flashes she saw when she curiously consulted the Conscience Devil's Mirror, and the images in the mirror were flickering and jumbled. In the end, it even showed scenes from the Eastern Universe, which was absurd.
However, both of them failed to notice the guilt-ridden, almost sweating expression on the face of Senior Fanny, the Homebody Witch, who was standing over them at that time—after all, it was indeed quite difficult to discern expressions on a hat.
In any case, after having a good fight, the group left the Arena. Since they rarely visited Golden Town Resort, it would have been a shame to focus solely on fighting. Before returning, everyone planned to relax properly.
However, the resort was truly vast, with too many recreational facilities, and they had only half a day left that day. Obviously, it was not possible to experience everything, so they were discussing what to do next.
Dorothy, the homebody, didn't know much about the recreational activities of social butterflies. If it were up to her, she would prefer to find a place to eat first, then go online to play games.
Yet she was aware of how inappropriate it would be to look for an internet café while at a resort, so she kept silent and listened to her sisters discuss.
"Go to the amusement park."
The moment recreational activities were mentioned, senior Fanny was the first one to jump in with her suggestion. Despite being the oldest in the group, her tastes were unexpectedly juvenile.
"Of course, we should go to the Opera House."
Audrey also put forward her suggestion right after. Little Fox was eager to see the level of her peers in opera houses outside her hometown.
"Actually, I suggest we go to the casino. That's where the real fun is in Golden Country."
As the host, Senior Mia suggested so.
However, her hardcore suggestion left the few newly adult little witches present somewhat speechless. Was the casino really a place for them to go?
"How about fishing?"
After some thought, Sophia finally made this proposition.
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, having not expected the student council president, who was always focused on work, to join in on the topic. So the president knew how to relax after all.
Maybe it was the feeling of being gawked at rudely that got the Pure White Witch a little bit embarrassed and annoyed as she said,
"We can have a picnic while fishing, with the lady in charge of the barbecue. Aren't you guys hungry?"
Witches could live without food and drink, sustained just by their Magic Power, so they naturally wouldn't feel hungry, but as soon as the president said this, everybody suddenly felt hungry.
"I agree with fishing."
"Me too."
"Count me in."
Senior Fanny, Audrey, and Senior Mia, drooling, betrayed their original stances.
Only Dorothy was full of question marks.
Ah, what about my opinion? So you've just decided to treat me as a tool?
...The Homebody Witch trembled with cold fury...
What do you think?
