Chapter 22: Dragon Witch
In this world, items belonging to witches are generally inscribed with some personal or family logos of the owner, just like how people like to write their names on notebooks. The more famous the witch, the more so.
At this moment, this super-luxury carriage parked on the floating island at home had such a clear logo. It was an emblem, an emblem depicting a giant dragon spreading its wings and roaring.
This emblem was very famous in the Witch World, basically to the extent that as long as you weren't illiterate, you would definitely recognize it. Because this emblem was the family crest of a very famous witch family, and this witch family also had a pivotal position in the entire witch history, belonging to the must-test content in history class.
This was the symbol of the Dragon Witch clan, a top-tier noble family that had once produced a Witch King.
Although the highest decision-making body of the Witch World was the Sage Council, and there was no formal establishment of a so-called "Witch King" position on the surface, in fact, there was indeed a Witch King.
This was the leader of the thirteen sages, the head of the Sage Council, the Chief Sage, which was also the alias of the most powerful witch in the world.
The Witch World has a history of hundreds of thousands of years, but in such a long time, only three Witch Kings in the true sense have appeared.
That is, the First King—God King, the Eternal King—Long Wang, and the current End King—Demon King.
The God King led the witch race to rise from the humble beginnings, the Long Wang led the witch race from ignorance to brilliance, and the Demon King stabilized the unshakable status of the witch race as the number one strong race in the myriad realms of the cosmos today.
And from the titles of these three Witch Kings, one could see the power templates they mastered.
The God King used angels as a template. She condensed the power of all living beings to counter-attack heaven, forcing the arrogant angels to submit to her will.
The Long Wang used giant dragons as a template. She dominated the Dragon Island with absolute violence, making the unruly giant dragons bow down to her.
The Demon King used demons as a template. She conquered the abyss with desire and contracts, making the chaotic and disorderly demons have to obey the order of the witches.
Under the relay of the three kings, the status of the witch race as the number one strong race under the gods could no longer be shaken.
It's just that after such a long time, the God King and the Long Wang, who had already completed their missions, had retired and disappeared for tens of thousands of years. No one knew where these two kings were now. If it weren't for the current Demon King still appearing from time to time and brushing up her presence in front of the news media, the legends of the three kings might have been classified as myths.
However, although the three kings were not common, the families and forces they left behind were deeply rooted in the Witch World. Among them, the Dragon Witch clan was the inheritance left by the Long Wang.
Even now that the Long Wang has retired and disappeared, this family still ranks second in the Thirteen Sage Council, and its strength is stronger than the Angel Witch clan inherited from the God King, second only to the Demon Witch clan with the Demon King sitting in town.
Of course, saying it's a family, it's more accurate to say it's a territory. After all, the structure of witch society is composed of countless witch territories of various sizes.
The Haiyue Witch's witch territory is just a floating island city, but the Dragon Witch's territory is a huge alliance country composed of witch territories of many family members.
And such a huge force naturally wouldn't work without enough people to manage it. Therefore, the Dragon Witches have been recruiting new members from the outside. Any witch who evolves with a giant dragon as a template can sign up to become a citizen of that Dragon Kingdom. And if one is lucky enough, maybe they will be spotted by some "white, rich, and beautiful" young lady who inherits the blood of the Long Wang, and from then on, they will embark on the peak of life.
Although this sounds a bit unrealistic and magical, like a plot that only appears in novels, reality is often so unreasonable. Anyway, Dorothy knows that this legend is true, and it is even more bizarre and exaggerated than in the legend.
If you ask her why she is so sure?
Hehe, her own existence is the evidence.
In the legend, it is said that only witches might be able to climb high to the "white, rich, and beautiful" young lady of the Dragon Witch. But the reality is that as long as you are lucky enough and handsome enough, mortal mages might not be unable to try. Maybe you will be spotted by some young lady who is a "face-control" and has been too free.
Therefore, seeing this Dragon Witch family crest now, Dorothy basically understood who this sudden visitor was.
Who else could it be? It could only be her biological mother, whom she had only seen a few times in her life.
As an ultimate race, witches basically know things from birth and start remembering things as soon as they are born. Although Dorothy, as a half-witch, is not as powerful as a pure-blooded witch, the bonus on the transmigrator makes her more precocious than pure-blooded witches.
However, even so, she only remembered seeing this biological mother once. This Dragon Witch, who was too free, didn't even give her a mouthful of milk after giving birth and ran away to the battlefield to open up territory.
Hehe, it really is worthy of being the Dragon Witch clan, all of whom are Armed Witches. Is opening up territory and fighting even more important than one's own daughter?
Dorothy was an orphan in her previous life. In this life, she finally had both parents, but she encountered such a mother. It is impossible for you to ask her not to resent her at all. It is hard to say whether her resistance to becoming an Armed Witch was out of resentment for this battle-crazy mother.
In short, seeing this familiar yet strange family crest now, Dorothy's face sank directly.
"Since you've disappeared for so long, why not disappear forever? What's the point of appearing now to disturb my peaceful life?"
She thought so in her heart, and for a while, she was a bit resistant to going home. She didn't want to see the person she didn't want to see as soon as she opened the door.
But in the end, she sighed and pushed the door open.
"Dragging it out and not seeing her seems like I'm afraid of her. I don't owe her anything; she owes me. The one who should be panicked is her. Then it's time to make a clean break."
When the sisters left before, there was no one at home. Father and stepmother had both gone to work. But now, it was rarely lively in this home.
Well, actually, it wasn't that lively. The atmosphere was quite cold. As soon as the sisters opened the door, they saw two sides silently confronting each other on the wide sofa in the living room.
Sitting on the sofa facing the door, which the sisters could see as soon as they entered, was a middle-aged man with a handsome appearance and an elegant temperament. Beside him sat a witch with a petite figure, a cute face, but wearing mature makeup, and a very powerful aura.
These two were Dorothy's father, Adam, and stepmother, Annie.
"Father, Mother, are you off work so early today? I accompanied Sister to buy school supplies. Is there a guest at home?"
Alice, who didn't know what had happened at all, saw her parents and greeted them happily.
But Dorothy's gaze looked directly at the two figures sitting on the sofa with their backs to the door, who were confronting her parents before.
She ignored the white-haired one she didn't know, but the black-haired one...
"Euphilia, what are you doing here?"
She asked unceremoniously.
Hearing her inquiry, the figure with her back to them stood up and turned her head. ===== CHAPTER 23 =====
