Chapter 31: Two Mothers

~7 min read 1,316 words

Outside the arena, a group of people were watching the battle in the micro-world that seemed to be a miniature world.

Alice was worried about her sister and wished she could just stick to the transparent isolation shield. Beside her, Adam was also watching the development in the field with concern, not daring to blink.

On the contrary, the two adult witches were quite calm.

"Who do you think will win?"

The petite stepmother spoke first. She moved her gaze away from the arena and observed the reaction of the same kind beside her.

"Of course it's Sophie Liya."

The tall dragon witch still looked at the arena without turning her head, but answered almost without thinking.

"Hehe, do you look down on your daughter so much? How much do you know about Dorothy?"

The dragon witch's answer made Annie a bit disappointed. The stepmother adult shook her head and continued to look at the arena, but her tone became a bit mocking.

"This is not looking down, I'm just telling the truth."

Such sharp sarcasm made Euphilia frown, but what the other party said was indeed a fact. The dragon witch pressed down her temper and still explained coldly.

"Sophie Liya has been taught by me since she was a child. Her talent is not inferior to mine. Now she is even stronger than I was back then. She is only 16 years old and just an adult, and she is only one step away from becoming a big witch. Even among the witches of the same generation in the world, she belongs to the most outstanding batch."

"I don't know much about Dorothy, and there's nothing to hide about this. After all, I only found her yesterday. Although I also asked people to collect some information about Dorothy over the years, looking at the information, she seems to have wasted her talent. I can't believe that my daughter would become a..."

After leaving yesterday, Euphilia sent someone to find the resume of her daughter over the years. However, looking at the life experience that could be summarized in just a few sentences, the dragon witch almost couldn't hold it.

Internet-addicted girl? Hardcore homebody? Can't go out of the house a few times a year? The courses and exams of the mage school are all completed by online classes? She hasn't been to school a few times from enrollment to graduation? She is sixteen years old and only has 10,000 mana, just meeting the enrollment standard of the Witch Academy?

Seeing that her own daughter had fallen to this point, Euphilia, a strong woman who had been striving for the best all her life, couldn't accept it. She almost couldn't help but run to Adam to question him: Is this how you raised your daughter all these years?

And this also made the dragon witch more determined to take her daughter back, especially when she saw Dorothy use Dragon's Breath in the arena, she was even more overjoyed. Her daughter directly inherited the core talent of the giant dragon. Such talent really shouldn't be wasted.

Adam, look at what you bastard have done all these years?

Euphilia only felt that she had owed her daughter for 16 years. She must make up for these debts twice as much in the future. After going back, she prepared to hand over the family affairs to others and focus on accompanying her daughter for training. She firmly believed that under her special training, Dorothy would soon catch up with and surpass Sophie Liya, who was her disciple.

After all, Sophie Liya is an angel witch, and many of the dragon witch's moves and unique skills are not suitable for her. Dorothy is different; her daughter can perfectly inherit everything she has.

"A homebody?"

Euphilia didn't finish her words before, and Annie filled them in for her. The petite stepmother smiled, but the sarcasm in her smile was even richer.

"As expected of the famous new Grand Duke of the Dragon Kingdom, the Disaster Dragon, you are really strict."

"But now I am sure that you and Dorothy really don't get along. Even if you force her back, I guess that child will run away in a short time."

And for a mother, there is probably nothing more capable of igniting the anger in her heart than such sarcasm, not to mention that the overbearing dragon witch was not a good-tempered person in the first place.

Her gaze finally moved away from the arena, and she looked at the same kind beside her for the first time. She was tall and looked down at this petite witch, full of oppressive power.

"You seem to have a lot of opinions about me. Then what high opinion do you have, or have you secretly taught Dorothy anything over the years, Red Moon Witch of the Blood Moon Twins?"

"Oh my, I didn't expect such a big shot like you to know such a small character as me. It really makes me flattered."

Facing the oppression of the dragon witch, who was even more terrifying than a giant dragon, the petite stepmother didn't back down at all. She just smiled elegantly, and scarlet light flickered in those wine-red eyes.

"For the evil guest who came to the door, I naturally fight back with a hunting gun. Although I am just a stepmother and don't look at that girl Dorothy very pleasingly, she is still my family and my stepdaughter. When my own child is looked down upon, as a parent, I naturally have to stand up for the child."

Although she was only half the height of the other, Annie's aura was unexpectedly tall. Even the oppressive power of a Peak Witch couldn't make her retreat half a step.

"You are a senior on the path of a witch, but Disaster Dragon, you are still too tender in the identity of a mother. I hope you learn how to be a qualified mother. Dorothy is your daughter, yes, but she is also an independent person, not your puppet. The child you think is good may not necessarily like it. I don't want my good stepdaughter to become a clone of you in the future. I have said everything I have to say."

"Tsk, I really can't stand your inexplicable desire for control as Dragon Witches. Don't guess anymore. I haven't taught Dorothy anything. I don't have the ability to teach her. Watch carefully, your daughter might give you a surprise."

"Then you mean Dorothy might win?"

The dragon witch raised her eyebrows and asked.

"No, she's doomed to lose. 10,000 mana vs 290,000. If this can win, it's a miracle."

Annie rolled her eyes and answered like this.

"You..."

The dragon witch, who felt she was being teased, had her temper flare up on the spot. But in the end, she suppressed her anger and turned to watch the game angrily. She was too lazy to deal with this "short winter melon."

Hmph, for Dorothy's sake, she forgave this guy once. Otherwise, she would have broken those sharp teeth and mouth directly.

It's just that while thinking so in her heart, Euphilia watched the duel more seriously.

She really didn't have enough experience as a mother. She wanted to be a good mother back then, but she didn't have the chance in the end. Now, if possible, she really wanted to make up for the regrets of the past.

So what on earth does this short winter melon want to say?

The dragon witch, who had been thinking for a long time and only understood half of it, felt her fists harden. She felt like she was facing the fortune-teller back then, wishing she could punch and explode these damn "riddle-makers."

Forget it, forget it, watch the game, watch the game. She was looking forward to Dorothy really giving her a surprise.
