Chapter 105: 104. Asaphani
As the elevator doors reopened, Dorothy looked out and saw a black-robed witch rolling on the ground, covering her face with both hands. She then looked around and saw that all the terrifying and bizarre things from before had vanished, as if everything that had just happened was truly just her hallucination.
The room that appeared inside the door was filled with bookshelves. Besides the books, there was only a black bed placed in the center of the room, with nothing else.
Aside from a few scattered books on the floor, the room was quite clean and tidy, and it had a fragrant scent of paper and ink, which was unexpectedly pleasant, making any book lover unconsciously relax.
"Vannie, are you alright?"
As soon as the door opened, Dina quickly rushed to the side of the black-robed witch who was rolling on the ground, helping her up while asking with concern.
"It's fine, it's just a small injury. I'm sorry if I scared you all."
The black-robed witch waved her hand and said gently.
Her voice was indeed like an older sister, with the unique magnetic quality of a mature woman, yet it was also like a clear spring flowing down a high mountain, simply pleasant to listen to, making one's mood peaceful.
After she stood up, Dorothy finally got a clear look at the witch. Even she, who was accustomed to seeing beautiful women, was captivated. This was another beauty capable of toppling kingdoms.
Even though two streaks of blood flowed down her cheeks from her injured eyes, it did not diminish the witch's charm in the slightest.
Witches, after all, are a race leaning towards Western fantasy, so in the eyes of Dorothy, a person who had undergone Transmigration, normal witches generally resembled the 'Western beauty' type, with deep and Stereo facial features. However, this Vannie made her feel for a moment as if she had met a fellow countrywoman from her past life.
This was the typical appearance of an Eastern beauty: a small and delicate face, eyes like a painting, red lips and white teeth. Especially since the other party had long, straight black hair, the stark contrast between her night-sky-like black hair and her fair, smooth skin, coupled with this black and white conflict, immediately brought out a classical beauty reminiscent of a well-bred young lady.
She indeed possessed the aura of an older sister, but unlike Mia's motherly, virtuous wife and good mother demeanor in her usual disguised form, Vannie was more like an intelligent young lady from a scholarly family, with a gentle temperament that exuded the dignified intellect of someone well-read and sensible. (Reference to Sheep Mom's Sister Chiba incarnation)
Hmm, although Dina was also an intellectual beauty, the difference became apparent when compared to Vannie. This was the gap between a female class teacher and a female principal.
Dorothy, who had thought she would never see such a beauty aligning with her Eastern aesthetic in this life except when looking in a mirror, was momentarily stunned, but quickly returned to normal, then gently shook her head.
Although she did resemble her, it was ultimately just a resemblance. Vannie was, after all, wearing a witch's robe, and in her eyes, which had now recovered, those goat pupils were still eerie.
This was indeed a witch. If Dorothy truly wanted to see a classical beauty from her homeland, she would probably have to wait until the spatial storms between the East and West Universe subsided and then go there to see true Celestial Maidens.
Moreover,
Although everything outside had returned to normal, Dorothy looked at Dina. The viscous liquid left by the tentacles of the fleshly fungal carpet on Dina, who had the figure and temperament suitable for playing a beautiful class teacher, was still there.
However, just as Dina went to support Vannie, the moment their bodies touched, the filth on Dina seemed to come alive. They reassembled, forming a tentacle, then wriggled and crawled to Vannie's side, finally transforming into one of her waterfall-like black strands of hair.
Dorothy: "."
Tsk, sure enough, those things before weren't my hallucination. This Vannie is really a bit eerie, thought the Zhai Mo Nv.
Then she saw countless tiny goat eyes peeking at her from the gaps in the long-haired witch's strands.
Zhai Mo Nv: "."
Wuwuwu, I'm sorry, I didn't see anything. Please, great one, retract your divine power. I'm timid.
[I hope readers remember our domain 101kan.com here.]
Thinking that a witch with such strange powers was also a neurotic with a knowledge curse, Dorothy felt numb. She really wanted to run away.
Unfortunately, the strange witch who seemed to have her eye on her apparently had no intention of letting her go.
"Dina, who is this?"
The long-haired witch didn't even wipe the bloodstains flowing down from her eyes on her face, and directly looked at Dorothy, then asked.
"Vannie, this is the Young Lady. Her true name is kept secret. The Young Lady's situation is special; she is the second witch, after the Demon King, to pass the Nine Major Schools' assessment in one go. She's quite remarkable."
Dina pulled the trembling Dorothy over and introduced her.
"Hello, Vannie, I'm really sorry about earlier, I didn't mean to."
Looking at her wrist, which was again held by Dina, the Zhai Mo Nv felt a wave of exhaustion. But since she couldn't run away, she wouldn't. After all, as a Little Witch who grows mushrooms, she had nothing left to fear. The one who should be afraid was the other side.
She simply smiled generously and sincerely apologized to the witch.
"It's fine, it's me who should apologize. My demon eyes do look a bit scary."
The long-haired witch waved her hand, then pointed to her goat-pupiled eyes, saying, and then thoughtfully closed her eyes.
"I'd better keep my eyes closed, so I don't scare such a cute junior again."
However, as Dorothy watched the scene where countless bubbles suddenly appeared behind the witch as she closed her eyes, and the shadows wriggling in the floor beneath her, all opening countless eyes, she was momentarily at a loss for words.
Or perhaps, Vannie, you should just speak with your eyes open. I think you're more frightening this way.
"Oh, junior, you can indeed see them. This is the first time I've met a non-kindred witch who can see my adorable familiars."
Just as Dorothy tried to force herself not to look at those strange things, she heard Vannie say this.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, mysterious junior. My name is Asaphani, you can just call me Vannie. My little darlings and I are quite fond of you."
Dorothy: "."
Looking at the thousands of tentacles behind Vannie, swaying wildly as if indeed expressing welcome, what else could she say? She could only smile and then follow the call of her heart.
"Hmm, thank you for your affection, Vannie. Your familiars are indeed adorable. This is the first time I've seen such cute familiars in all my life."
The Little Witch forced a smile.
This Qian Bao is such a loser, Vannie is clearly so cute.
