Chapter 2052 - 1040: Return to the Underworld
"Heh heh, Sister, I’m awesome, right."
Alice naturally didn’t notice anything unusual about her sister. As for her sister’s "spacing out," she thought it was because her sister was shocked by her tremendous progress. Proudly, she raised her head, puffed out her chest, and placed her hands on her hips.
Dorothy: "....."
The homebody witch, who was deep in thought, was rendered speechless by her silly little sister’s boastful demeanor.
Seriously, we say you’re overweight, and you start gasping for air.
However, Alice’s innocent and pure demeanor did help put the homebody witch at ease, allowing her to temporarily set aside her doubts.
Well, no matter what, as long as she knows Alice is her beloved sister, that’s enough. Past life stuff doesn’t really matter.
She reached out and patted Alice on the head.
"Alright, alright, I know you’re awesome, but you definitely need more tutoring. Look, you already have 400k Mana, yet you haven’t even reached the Rank of Great Witch. It’s time to seriously prepare for the exams."
The homebody witch suddenly found the focus point and pointed to the little witch’s identity card rank while speaking.
Obviously, the reason Alice had enough Magic Power but hadn’t upgraded was that she failed the exams. If passing the Great Witch exam is already this hard, what about her Peak exams in the future.
As for Sage?
Sigh, you really can’t have such high expectations for a meat-headed sister.
Alice: "...."
The little witch, who was just proudly showing off, suddenly drooped her little cat face upon hearing her sister’s words.
Damn, why does upgrading also require a written section? Isn’t my ability to use magic and my combat skills enough? Why must I explain why I’m so good at fighting.
The little witch cursed the current witch rank system.
Yup, this broken system is really unfriendly to witches like her on the Path of Omnipotence. Why do witches on the Path of Omnipotence have to take the same exams as those on the Path of Omniscience?
Someday, if I hold power, my first task will be to abolish this damn certification system.
Alice thought angrily in her heart.
Also, Sister, you’re really annoying, always bringing up the sore spots. I don’t like you anymore, humph.
"Alright, alright, let’s go home and eat. To celebrate your recent victory, I’ll make your favorite roasted dragon ribs tonight."
Seeing the little witch pouting as if she could hang an oil pot on her lips, Dorothy chuckled as she ruffled her hair and said this.
Instantly, Alice’s expression brightened.
"Yay, roasted dragon ribs! Sister, you’re the best."
The little witch cheered happily.
The two sisters walked out of the preparation room together, and as they exited, they happened to run into the top student trio coming out from the opposite side.
Christina looked a bit sullen, clearly not happy about losing the duel just now, but upon seeing Dorothy and her sister, the primeval witch extended her thumb approvingly towards the little witch.
"Nice tactics. Looking forward to our next match."
She said this.
Although she indeed felt very discontent, losing was losing. Christina wasn’t someone who couldn’t handle losing. Besides, Alice’s ruthless approach of mutual destruction was indeed praiseworthy.
Although duels aren’t truly life-threatening, the fear and misery of facing death are very real. Most duelists instinctively avoid death, and if possible, no one would easily choose to experience that feeling.
Therefore, even in a duel, there are few who dare to decisively pull their opponent down with them in mutual destruction. The fact that Alice, at such a young age, could face fear and be willing to give her life to defeat her opponent is courageous and praiseworthy.
Seeing this, Alice swelled up with pride again, the little witch proudly stuck out her promising future of a rigid chest.
"Uh-huh, senior, see you next time."
The little witch responded full of energy.
Beside her, Dorothy glanced at her foolish little sister, sometimes feeling really envious of such a carefree fool.
This silly little thing has already played all her cards, and next time she won’t be able to pull off the same trick of risking it all. Most likely, she’d be overwhelmed and still foolishly agree to the invitation for another match. Isn’t this just asking for a beating?
The silly sister is like this; she just enjoys the battle cheerfully, while the role of the strategic thinker sister requires considering many more things.
The homebody witch sighed, her mind already contemplating how to build a new combat system centered around the new talent specialization in Alice’s next tutoring session.
Meanwhile, the top student trio seemed a bit nervous when they saw her. Even though they were seniors, they dared not meet her gaze.
Well, Dorothy could understand their feelings. After all, having just found a shortcut through Alice’s assignments, there was a sense of guilty consciousness about cheating a bit, naturally making them reluctant to meet the eyes of the examiner.
Regarding this, the homebody witch gave them a gentle smile.
"Good luck with the exams."
She said this.
Immediately, the top student trio felt much more at ease.
"Uh-huh, young lady, we’ll do our best."
The three quickly nodded.
They also realized that their little plan had already been seen through by the young lady in front of them, but it didn’t seem to violate any rules. It was tacitly approved, which invigorated them, so they looked at Alice with some fervor.
Little Witch: "..."
Although Alice’s little head was yet unaware of the seriousness of the situation, her werewolf perception talent suddenly sensed a bit of panic.
