Chapter 106: 105. Sign a Contract with Me
A few minutes later, in the restricted underground area of the Great Library, three witches began a tea party.
Well, it was called a tea party, but it was really because Vannie, who had been self-sealed for so long, probably hadn't seen anyone visit her in a long time, so she enthusiastically wanted to entertain Dorothy and Diana.
However, seeing the black-haired, long-haired senior searching for a long time in this room full of books, only to finally realize with an awkward expression that there was nothing to entertain guests with, Dorothy eventually sighed and took out a set of tables and chairs from her magic bag, along with some homemade snacks and refreshments.
"Please don't be shy, my two seniors. Consider this my apology for my earlier rudeness."
After all, she was asking for a favor, so at this moment, Zhai Mo Nv's emotional intelligence, which she usually didn't want to use, suddenly started working, and she said this.
Seeing her mysterious junior so understanding, Vannie felt ashamed of her unpreparedness, yet also looked at Dorothy gratefully.
Hmm, it would be even better if she could open her own eyes instead of having her 'cute' familiars convey her gratitude with their thousands of eyes.
And after the two seniors were seated and politely tasted the refreshments Dorothy brought out, their eyes lit up. The two, who had originally only intended to politely eat a couple of bites before getting to the main topic, found that their hands were no longer obeying them.
"Miss, did you also make these with the Witch's Magic Kitchen series of spells? Why doesn't mine taste like this?"
Diana asked, popping one small cookie after another into her mouth, looking at the Miss beside her with some confusion.
Of course, it's because I'm the creator of the spells. It's basically impossible for you learners to reach my level.
Dorothy thought this in her heart, but of course, she couldn't say it out loud.
"It's probably because I love good food and practice a lot, so I have a higher proficiency in mastering spells. You just need to practice more, senior, and you'll definitely be able to do it too."
Zhai Mo Nv replied, and she wasn't lying; every word was true.
Theoretically, as long as you spend a little bit of time, raise your spell proficiency to the limit, and add a little bit of cooking talent, then it's indeed very possible to make food as delicious as hers.
"The Witch series of spells? I know about that too. I love her spell series. Every time I wake up, I buy and download them immediately."
Vannie, who was nearby, heard this and became interested. She enthusiastically pulled out her spellbook, whose cover was emblazoned with the words 'Necronomicon' and whose leather felt strange—in short, it looked very ominous. She showed off her complete collection of Witch series spells on it, then said with some regret,
"It's just a pity that my situation isn't suitable for going out, otherwise, I really want to find this young Spell Master to discuss and learn from her. I've also researched many life-series spells by studying hers, and I really want to ask her to help me take a look."
The black-haired, long-haired senior said this while casually showing her two juniors her research results.
"Hmm, for example, this 'Shuji Maid Summoning Spell'."
Vannie clapped her hands, and immediately, a strange sound of a giant creature squirming faintly echoed from the darkness. Then, a perfect maid with white hair, gray eyes, and a good figure walked out from a dark corner of the room. (Search for 'Forest Mansion Maid' on Bilibili, it's a fun interactive video, highly recommended)
"Tycho Lily, it's a pleasure to serve you."
This seemingly perfect maid greeted Dorothy and Diana.
"As expected of Vannie, your summoning magic is getting more and more amazing."
Diana, who didn't understand, praised the perfect maid.
Dorothy, on the other hand, looked at the amorphous, viscous monster that flowed like slime beneath the perfect maid's exterior, with countless eyes constantly appearing and disappearing on its surface. She quickly raised the teacup in her trembling hand and took a sip of tea to calm her nerves.
Senior, it's a good thing you can't go out, otherwise, how could I possibly guide you? I think your 'life-series' spells might be too much for an ordinary witch to handle.
And then, with this strange maid serving tea and water, the peculiar witch tea party continued. Perhaps because they shared the same 'idol', the conversation between the three was surprisingly harmonious. Their relationship quickly became closer, lubricated by good food and shared interests.
At least Dorothy wasn't as afraid of this somewhat strange senior as she was at first. Although this senior's power was indeed a little strange and frightening, after chatting carefully, she found that this senior was indeed a very nice person. Not only was she beautiful, but her knowledge was also incredibly vast. No matter what the topic, she could join in any conversation.
This made Dorothy, who also knew a little about everything, feel very comfortable chatting. The two chatted as if they had found their perfect match and regretted not meeting sooner. The conversation jumped from the Nine Major Schools to the principles of spellcasting, and then from astronomy to geography. In short, it was a wide-ranging, uninhibited exchange.
Diana, who was listening beside them and who was already considered a monster and a top student by others, felt a bit dizzy and couldn't keep up with the two big shots' conversation. She simply pulled out her notebook and began taking notes obediently.
They chatted for several hours. When the two, who had developed a mutual appreciation, finally finished a topic, Vannie frowned slightly.
"Miss Junior, although I really want to continue chatting with you, I don't have much time left. Let's talk about business. Is there anything you need my help with today?"
Upon hearing this, Dorothy, who had been engrossed in conversation, suddenly sobered up. She looked behind the senior, who had already been promoted to a confidante in her heart, and saw that the previously dissipated flesh and blood carpets, unspeakable monsters, and so on had begun to reappear.
Clearly, her confidante senior's time was indeed running out.
Immediately, she didn't dare to delay and quickly explained her desire to learn about the deeds of the Three Kings.
"Senior, it's like this..."
blah blah blah
"I see, that's simple."
Vannie, who seemed to be getting sleepier, shook her head, forced herself to stay awake, and pondered for a moment.
After a long time, she suddenly looked up, her eyes burning as she stared at Dorothy.
"Miss Junior, the deeds of the Three Kings cannot be explained in a short time, and I don't have much time left. However, I do have another way to solve the problem. Do you want to try it?"
"What method, Senior? Please tell me."
Dorothy looked at the black-haired, long-haired senior, whose condition was still deteriorating, and quickly replied.
"That is, sign a contract with me and take me as your familiar."
"Huh?"
Dorothy was stunned. She looked at the black-haired, long-haired senior opposite her with a blank expression, wondering if the senior was having an episode early and was no longer clear-headed.
How can a witch take a witch as a familiar? Senior, isn't that treating a person like a dog? I didn't expect you to be so open-minded, Senior, but I'm a proper person. How could I do such a thing? This must never happen.
The Little Witch was horrified.
Qian Bao, your family is about to have another mouth to feed, aren't you happy? Also, stop rushing me, the output really can't keep up. If you're really bored and not afraid of death, my old book "Zhai Tong Hua" welcomes you. It's updated once every two days, so if you don't mind the slow pace, you can give it a try. Haha
