Chapter 385: Who Isn't a Demon?
On the other side, in the lounge hall of the Torture Department.
The Fairy King, who was left outside to wait, naturally didn't know that in the office inside, her own mother was competing with an old senior in showing off their children until they were almost about to fight.
She was just sitting on the sofa waiting, bored. However, sitting idly was truly boring, so she took out portable snacks from her magic bag, and then started scrolling through the Mana Web with her Inquisition Order.
Just like that, she started killing time with a mouthful of happy water and a mouthful of potato chips.
Even though this was the Torture Department, a terrifying place legendary to be more frightening than Heaven and Hell, and even though she could still hear the screams and wails coming from the torture rooms not far away at this moment, none of this could affect the Otaku Seeing Zhai Wu Hun enjoying the happiness of food and the Mana Web.
The happiness of an otaku is just that simple.
It was just that she didn't wait long before a figure came and sat down on the sofa opposite her.
"So fast?"
The Fairy King originally thought it was her own mother who had returned, so she said this.
It was just that when she looked up, she only saw a strange witch sitting opposite, looking at her with some curiosity.
That was a witch wearing a white deer-horn bone mask, tall, about two meters tall, with a figure similar to her mother's. No wonder she had misidentified her just now.
"Wendigo, you can call me that. Are you that clown who made such a big splash today?"
This strange witch, seeing the Fairy King notice her, introduced herself first, and then asked.
"If there isn't a second clown in the Inquisition, then it should indeed be me."
The Fairy King nodded without being polite, and then also looked at this Miss Wendigo with some curiosity.
She smelled the fresh scent of blood on the other party, and...
The thick scent of fear, despair, and hatred.
Good fellow, it's actually not the common Seven Original Sins, but the Three Great Hates. Impressive.
The Otaku Seeing Zhai Wu Hun was slightly surprised in her heart.
Just as the growth of an Angel Witch requires the power of faith, the growth of a Demon Witch naturally requires the power of corresponding original sins. Among them, the most common are the Seven Original Sins—Arrogance, Anger, Gluttony, Laziness, Jealousy, Greed, and Lust.
This is also the source of power for the demons of the Abyss Hell.
But later, Lord Demon King, being a natural genius, added the Three Great Hates on the basis of the Seven Original Sins, which are Fear, Despair, and Hatred.
It's just that there aren't many Demon Witches who can follow in the footsteps of Lord Demon King and add the Three Great Hates as a source of power on the basis of the Seven Original Sins. After all, the Seven Original Sins alone are already walking on a tightrope, and adding difficulty to this, the requirements for talent and will are even higher; it's not something an ordinary person can play with.
But now, the Fairy King smelled the aura of these Three Great Hates on the Miss Wendigo opposite, which showed the strength and terror of this Demon Witch.
Moreover...
The Fairy King glanced at the demon silver medal hanging on the waist of this Miss Wendigo...
Good grief, another Grand Inquisitor. And looking at it, she doesn't seem to be more than a few years older than me, only twenty-something. To be able to mix into this position at such a young age, hateful genius, I'm not sour at all.
Before, when Dorothy didn't know much about the Inquisition, she didn't care much about the Grand Inquisitor status her mother gave her. But after chatting with those veteran inquisitors in the hall just now, she finally understood the gold content of this silver medal.
The previous four were all Peak Witches. How could a weak chicken like herself sit on equal footing with those big shots? It was simply a husky mixed into a pack of wolves.
Although it was said that the previous four also belonged to the top-ranked ones among the Grand Inquisitors, it didn't mean that all Grand Inquisitors were Peak. The vast majority were actually just top-tier Grand Witches...
emmm.... Dorothy, oh Dorothy, you are really floating. You even dare to use the two words "just" to describe top-tier Grand Witches. Have you forgotten your caution of reflecting on yourself three times a day?
Oh, wait, I am the Fairy King now, not the original body, then it's fine.
The Fairy King shook her head, throwing away all the nonsense like "staying low" and "caution."
After all, no matter how powerful and terrifying this Miss Wendigo opposite is, it has nothing to do with her. The two are just strangers who just met, and the relationship development is also inclined towards friendly colleagues, not enemies. Then what is there to be afraid of?
The Witch World is not that kind of dark and deep world where someone comes and shouts "This child is so terrifying, cannot be left alive" at every turn. Everyone is a civil servant with a position; one must be civilized.
"Are you here to absorb original sins?"
The Otaku Seeing Zhai Wu Hun asked with some curiosity.
The growth environment of a Demon Witch requires enough negative energy. For others, this Torture Department is a terrifying torture chamber like hell, but for a Demon Witch, it is truly as comfortable as returning home. The various negative energies overflowing from the prisoners being tortured here are a great supplement for them.
"Hmm, thanks to this batch of Angel Witches you caught, their despair and fear are very delicious."
Wendigo also looked at this clown colleague with some surprise. The other party is clearly a Dragon Witch; can she actually feel the aura of original sins?
"Delicious? Really? That kind of thing actually has a taste?"
The Fairy King, who originally just asked casually, suddenly became energetic. She suddenly felt that the potato chips in her hand were no longer fragrant.
"Uh, it does have a taste, but only we Demon Witches can taste it."
Wendigo was startled by this suddenly excited colleague, but still patiently explained.
"What does it taste like? Is it as delicious as this?"
Upon hearing about a brand-new delicacy, Dorothy's foodie soul moved. She hadn't published a new witch recipe for a long time. It wasn't that she didn't want to publish it, but she hadn't had any good inspiration recently. She used to think high-end ingredients were rare, but she had been eating them every day for the past two months, so she was a bit tired of them.
However, she didn't expect that things like emotional original sins actually had a taste. This suddenly gave her an inspiration, feeling that her brand-new recipe might be coming.
At the moment, the Fairy King generously pushed the potato chips in front of her towards the Miss Wendigo opposite, trying to bribe this Demon Witch with food to tell her more.
Although she could actually go back and ask others, but thinking about the three Demon Witches she knew...
Audrey? Forget it, this little junior sister is so socially anxious, where would she dare to use the lust original sin to enhance her charm?
Madeline? emmm, forget it, this President is devoted to martial arts. Apart from being a bit greedy for my body, she doesn't seem to have seduced anyone else. She is a disgrace to succubi.
Spider Teacher? Teacher might know a little, but her main business is puppetry and architecture. I really don't know how well she uses the power of original sins.
Tsk, why are the Demon Witches I know all so weird? There aren't many who properly carry forward the traditional crafts of demons.
Feel like this Miss Wendigo opposite is more reliable. To be able to absorb the Three Great Hates at a young age, this power of original sins looks like she plays with it very smoothly.
"Potato chips? There are these in the Witch's Magic Kitchen series. It's a pity that I can never learn this spell well."
Upon seeing these potato chips, Miss Wendigo's eyes suddenly lit up. She wasn't polite either, directly reaching out to take a few pieces to taste.
This made the Fairy King feel a bit helpless for the original body. Listening to the tone of this Demon Witch lady, she knew that this was someone who knew the Witch series of spells very well. She was probably a witch fan. How can one encounter witch fans everywhere?
"Uh, it's really delicious. It's even more delicious than what the chefs in the Imperial Kitchen make. So amazing. Miss Clown, where did you buy this?"
Miss Wendigo originally only took a few potato chips to satisfy her craving, and at the same time, it could be considered as intentionally making friends with this clown Grand Inquisitor who made a big splash today, to pull closer the relationship between the two sides.
It was just that what she didn't expect was that this potato chip was unexpectedly delicious. Even a witch like her who had seen all kinds of delicacies since childhood was a bit amazed.
Originally, she only wanted to eat two pieces to make a gesture, but now she couldn't control her hands.
And the Fairy King, seeing this, smiled instantly. She took out another plate of potato chips from her bag and took out a large can of happy water, sharing it with this colleague lady.
Hehe, her food bribery technique is invincible.
It was just that, Imperial Kitchen? Sss, Mom, could this still be a little princess who ran out of the Demon Kingdom?
Hearing the word that this Miss Wendigo subconsciously said just now, the Otaku Seeing Zhai Wu Hun was shocked in her heart.
But she quickly returned to calm.
Hmm, my mother is also a Prince. In this day and age, who isn't a little princess?
"If you like it, then eat more. I made these myself. You can't buy them outside."
The Fairy King said this while pouring a cup of happy water for the other party.
And on the other side, Wendigo, who had just been confused by the food for a moment and accidentally let it slip, also reacted. But she carefully looked at this clown colleague and saw that she didn't seem to care much about her identity that was almost exposed, which made her let out a sigh of relief. At the same time, the look in her eyes when looking at this Miss Clown also became much closer.
The reason why she, with her noble status, came to work in the Inquisition, apart from better absorbing negative energy to strengthen the power of original sins, was that she valued more that the inquisitors here all wore masks, so that no one would stare at her identity every day, and then surround her like flies, which made her annoyed.
She hoped that others would pay more attention to her ability rather than her identity. She didn't want to live in the shadow of her mother for the rest of her life.
It was just a pity that this wish was not difficult for other witches, but for her, the young daughter of the Demon King, the hope of realization was truly a bit slim.
Thinking of this, Wendigo, whose mood was a bit bitter, took a cup of strange black drink with bubbles from the clown opposite and gulped it down in one breath.
"Hiccup..."
Accompanied by the drink going down, a strange taste permeated her mouth. And because she drank a cup in one breath, she couldn't help but hiccup. Such a loss of composure instantly made her face under the mask turn red, and she hurriedly covered her mouth.
As the young daughter of the Demon King and a little princess of the Demon Kingdom, such a loss of composure was truly too shameful.
"Hiccup....."
However, before she had time to be ashamed, the clown opposite also hiccuped. The two looked at each other instantly, and then laughed out loud together.
And after the hearty laughter, Wendigo only felt that the original troubles in her heart had dissipated quite a bit.
"What is this drink called?"
The Demon Princess asked this. She had started to like this strange-tasting drink.
"A new drink about to be launched by the Forest Witch, Witch's Happy Water."
The Fairy King thought for a while, then said.
Sharing a little secret with each other can effectively pull closer the relationship between the two sides.
"About to be launched? Uh, could it be that you know that mysterious Forest Witch?"
Wendigo was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up, and she asked with great surprise.
"This is natural. She and I are the closest best friends, the kind whose relationship is good enough to wear the same witch robe."
The Otaku Seeing Zhai Wu Hun blinked her eyes and said this.
She, like the original body, never lies.
"Then can you tell me what kind of person that Witch lady is?"
Wendigo hurriedly asked. This big and tall Demon Princess was as excited as a fanatical star-chaser at this time, and her emotions were a bit out of control.
No way around it, who let her admire this young magic master the most? This person is a mysterious figure who truly doesn't rely on status or position, but purely relies on her own ability and talent to harvest countless glories. If only she could be as powerful as Witch lady, then when others mention her, they would definitely not only think of the label of the Demon King's young daughter.
You must know that in the latest Mana Web survey about who is the most popular person in the Witch World, this young magic master's popularity has ranked fourth, second only to the Three Kings.
"This is a secret, cannot be said, cannot be said."
However, facing the fanatical little fan of the original body, the Fairy King smiled, then extended her index finger and held it to her lips, saying this.
A woman with secrets has charm.
The Otaku Seeing Zhai Wu Hun under the mask smiled evilly.
"Alright, Miss Wendigo, now can you tell me the taste of original sins? My best friend has been a bit lacking in inspiration recently. If you can tell me about the taste of original sins, then perhaps my relaying it can give my best friend some new magic inspiration."
She induced her like this.
Hmm, just like a treacherous demon inducing prey into her trap.
However, the Demon Princess opposite had no vigilance against this at all. She was already shrouded in huge surprise at this time. Thinking that she actually had the opportunity to provide inspiration for that great Witch lady, Wendigo felt so honored, full of happiness. She now wished she could directly take out all her understanding of the power of original sins.
It was just...
"Miss Clown, I also really want to tell you the answer, but this perception of the power of original sins is a unique ability of Demon Witches. I also don't know how to describe it, and the taste of original sins is actually related to the harvesting method. These are all very difficult to explain clearly."
Wendigo scratched her head, feeling a bit ashamed. The opportunity to help her idol was right in front of her, but she couldn't grasp it, which really made her feel a bit uncomfortable.
"It doesn't matter. If it's difficult to describe, then let's practice it."
The Fairy King said eagerly.
"Uh, but you are a Dragon..."
Wendigo just wanted to ask, but was surprised to see the familiar aura emerging from this witch opposite.
That was the aura of her own mother, the Demon King.
"Hmm, when necessary, it's not like I can't act as a Demon Witch."
The Second Generation Demon King said this with a smile.
This is the Witch World, a world where magic is prosperous. Things like changing races only require a little bit of attainment in transformation magic plus a sufficient medium.
... Otaku Seeing Zhai Wu Hun is transforming... ===== CHAPTER 386 =====
