Chapter 139: Soul Struggle

~10 min read 1,847 words

An hour later, in the basement kitchen, the room was full of fragrance.

Dishes fresh out of the oven were arranged neatly, and the rich aroma made people salivate and itch in their hearts.

"Witch's Preservation Spell. Modified"

Dorothy waved her hand, and invisible magic power transformed into magic bubbles that flew out from her hands. Each magic bubble accurately wrapped a pot of dishes, and then the bubbles shrank, becoming a thin film attached to the cookware.

"Mm, no problem. Today's work is done. The amount for three meals a day is all done at once. Ready to run."

Although all the work was actually done by magic spells, and the Home Witch was eating melon seeds on the side and teasing her cute little Junior Sister the whole time, now that the work was nearing completion, she still wiped the sweat that didn't exist on her forehead with a sense of ritual, pretending to be hard-working.

According to the requirements of the Armed Club, Dorothy needs to prepare three meals a day. Normally, she would have to come to work three times in the morning, noon, and evening, which would be too time-consuming and would affect her study time.

Fortunately, this is a magic world, with the help of omnipotent magic. Dorothy just finished the amount for three whole meals in one breath. The twenty pots in front of her, which had space expansion but were all filled, were the results of her labor just now.

Twenty different dishes, each pot containing 30,000 servings, totaling enough for 600,000 witches to eat a meal. And counting three meals a day, this is enough for 200,000 witches for a day.

Of course, considering that the little witches of the Armed Club have a relatively large amount of exercise, they are all rice buckets, and one person might eat three to five times as much as others, so this amount is enough for 40,000 to 50,000 witches to eat.

And although the Armed Club is a giant club with a total of over one million members, most members are scattered in various branches of the academy, and only elite members are qualified to come to the headquarters for training. Such elite members total only 20,000 to 30,000.

Then the amount Dorothy prepared now is absolutely more than enough. Besides the consumption of the headquarters, the extra might be used as a reward for some branches that perform relatively well. After all, this kind of high-level cooking that can increase magic power is quite precious.

Of course, normally, this kind of preparing a whole day's meals in one breath is actually quite bad. After all, meals should be fresh, and only those just out of the pot are relatively delicious.

And cold dishes and cold rice that have been reheated will not only taste greatly reduced, but the magic power contained in these high-end ingredients will also be lost in large quantities.

With Dorothy's pursuit of food, even if the Armed Club wouldn't blame her for such laziness, she wouldn't forgive this wasteful behavior of spoiling things. She dared to do this because there was magic to assist.

Witch's Magic Kitchen series witchcraft's preservation technique is a magic spell that can perfectly preserve the deliciousness and nutrition of food. Ordinary witches can cast it once to extend the best practical time of food to at most one day.

And if a witch with time talent casts it, the time of the food will be directly stopped. As long as magic power is continuously supplemented to the magic spell, even a delicious meal can be preserved forever.

Dorothy has time talent, and she just applied a preservation technique that can maintain for one day to those foods. Within one day, the dishes in the pot will stop time and always maintain the taste just out of the pot. Only, once the food is taken out of the pot, the magic spell effect will expire.

Therefore, she thought about it and waved her hand again, writing a prompt on the surface of those pots: "Eat civilized, take as much as you eat."

Hmm, that's it.

However, before running, Dorothy looked at the messy large kitchen. Her good professional ethics didn't allow her to just let go. She raised her hand and prepared to cast a cleaning spell to clean up.

Only, before she made a move, a snapping sound sounded first. Then, huge magic power rolled, sweeping the entire kitchen. Wherever the magic power passed, various stains were eliminated, and the kitchen utensils that were placed in chaos stood up and jumped back to their original positions. The entire kitchen, except for those twenty pots, returned to new.

"Senior Sister, you've worked hard. Leave these finishing works to me in the future."

Audrey on the side retracted her hand, and the little puppet on her shoulder said this.

She now knows that Senior Sister's magic power is not right. The Great Banquet Technique and Group Preservation Technique she just cast are both high-consumption magic spells. She estimates that Senior Sister doesn't have much magic power left now.

She can't help Senior Sister with cooking with her cooking talent, but the little fox feels she can still do these finishing works. Anyway, it's just a cleaning spell.

And to this, Dorothy's gaze was attracted by the ten gold rings that were gradually dissipating on the little Junior Sister's ten fingers.

"Puppeteer-specific magic wand?"

The Home Witch recognized the true face of those rings.

This is the magic wand style that puppeteers like most. After all, puppeteers originally originated from human puppet theater puppet shows. At that time, some puppeteers would wear several rings connected to puppet strings to manipulate puppets for performance.

Although the witch puppeteers' method of manipulating puppets has long since not relied on their hands, in the magic world, this ancient tradition is actually a mystery. Many puppeteers firmly believe that this puppet ring-style magic wand can make them manipulate puppets more smoothly and naturally.

And magic is originally very idealistic, especially for witches. When a powerful witch firmly believes so, she may indeed gain some bonus. And with more witches believing, this tradition may truly possess mystery and become a ritual magic.

Only, the importance of a magic wand to a witch goes without saying, and Audrey actually chose this specific professional style magic wand. From this point, one can see the little Junior Sister's determination to learn puppets well.

Only...

"Why does this guy not use her good illusion mental talent and learn this puppet thing? Her puppet talent is really not as good as illusion."

Dorothy complained inwardly.

But thinking that she herself ran to hit ash, the Home Witch shook her head and didn't say much.

"Senior Sister? Why are you staring at me?"

After the little fox cleaned up the kitchen, she found that her Senior Sister had been staring at her, and she couldn't help but become a bit worried and guarded.

Could it be that Senior Sister was finally attracted by my beauty? But I didn't feel Senior Sister's desire for me?

Audrey thought vigilantly.

"Nothing, just suddenly discovered that Audrey, you are also a person of the 'no soul' faction. You actually used a cleaning spell to clean kitchen utensils."

Dorothy said this.

Although the cleaning spell is convenient and easy to use, just as some people feel that clothes washed by a washing machine are not as clean as hand-washed ones, many witches also feel that this kind of instant cleaning magic spell has no soul. They are willing to use cleaning spells for big cleanups like rooms, but for personal underwear or kitchen utensils, they firmly believe that washing with water is cleaner and has more soul.

Hmm, it's actually just a pure psychological problem, just like food that falls on a clean table is clearly not dirty, but many people would rather throw it away than eat it.

However, on the Mana Web, the practical faction and the soul faction occasionally argue endlessly, just like the tofu brain dispute in the world of Dorothy's past life.

Of course, Dorothy herself belongs to the kind of witch who does whatever is convenient and has no soul. However, her roommate, Sophie Liya, is a soul faction. The angel witch insists on cleaning bowls with water-system magic every time.

However, from the perspective of magic theory, the water system does have attributes like purification and holiness, but is that really necessary?

Dorothy originally thought that since this little Junior Sister is engaged in art, she should belong to the exquisite life soul faction. Never expected that this guy is actually a practical faction that doesn't stick to trifles.

And to Senior Sister's surprise, Audrey was full of question marks, and then silently took a step back.

"Could it be that Senior Sister, you are of the soul faction?"

The little fox's eyes carried a bit of disgust.

Dorothy hurriedly shook her head and denied it.

"Of course not. Who would care about soul if they are normal? I am not a soul-eating monster, and I don't specialize in the necromancy faction."

Upon hearing Senior Sister's words, the little fox's eyes immediately softened. The friendship boat between the Senior Sisters didn't capsize this time, but instead became more solid because of the same point of view.

"Exactly, exactly. Those soul faction guys are just picky. My sister and two mothers are both soul faction. It's so troublesome to be with them."

Feeling that her Senior Sister was becoming more and more intimate, the little fox wagged her tail and began to control the little puppet to complain about her family.

Hmm, the relationship between the two began to evolve from simple Senior Sisters to good best friends.

And Dorothy, who had finished her work, didn't intend to stay long. The Senior Sisters were preparing to go together to report to the academy and find Teacher Spider for class.

Only...

"Eldest Miss, that big shot is looking for you."

Dorothy had just walked from the underground large kitchen to the ground arena when she bumped into Madelin. As soon as the succubus witch saw her, she said this.

Dorothy: "???"

What the hell, isn't it not time to eat yet? That big shot noticed me already?

The Home Witch didn't understand at all. She hadn't done anything yet, so why was she suddenly noticed?

"No..."

But whatever, she wasn't interested in joining a combat group anyway. That big shot or not big shot had nothing to do with her.

What kind of society is it now? Don't you know that everyone is equal among witches? Why should she go just because that big shot wants to see her?

Not seeing, not seeing. Whoever wants to see, go see.

Dorothy opened her mouth, just wanting to refuse.

But the succubus witch's next sentence directly blocked her path.

"That big shot is your mother."

Dorothy: "..."

Oh my god, what do you want to do again?

... Home Witch is mentally exhausted... ===== CHAPTER 140 =====
