Chapter 406: Who is the Protagonist

~14 min read 2,666 words

"Wow, what a big... emmm, God, a ghost ship. You fishing enthusiasts really can fish out anything except fish."

The group from the Witch's Home club had just arrived at the fishing ground of the Golden Township under the leadership of Senior Miya. As soon as they approached, Dorothy saw that tattered, ancient sailing warship breaking through the water.

That was clearly an old ship that had been soaking in the seabed for who knows how many years. The original sails had almost completely rotted, and the ship's deck was covered with barnacles and sludge. Some marine plants that only existed on the seabed were growing among them, and among those plants, one could vaguely see piles of white bones.

In short, the whole ship was filled with an aura of decay and ominousness.

And looking at the slender fishing line tied to the ram-headed demon figurehead of the warship, the Home Witch was also speechless for a while.

Do you call this thing a "fish"?

Dorothy was greatly shocked.

Although she, as a Home Witch who didn't even go out of her door, hadn't fished in the past, she had vaguely heard of some outrageous legends in the Witch fishing world. But when she saw all this with her own eyes now, she still felt that it was somewhat beyond her expectations.

"It seems our luck is not bad today. We actually saw someone catch something as soon as we came in. This lucky guest is considered to have made a fortune today. Ghost ships from a long time ago are very rare spiritual materials. Many alchemy rituals and magic learning require this kind of material, and the market value has always been quite expensive."

The group was also attracted by the commotion and stopped to watch. And after the three angel Witches cheered and collected the ghost ship, Senior Miya also said so with a hint of envy.

"Uh, then wouldn't Senior be losing money this time?"

Dorothy scratched her head and asked so.

After all, the guest made a huge profit, so Senior Miya, as the owner of the fishing ground, naturally lost money this time.

"Hahaha, it seems you, Little Fairy, haven't fished much. Hmm, I lost a fortune this time."

Hearing her beloved's words, the Golden Princess couldn't help but laugh.

And Sophie Liya on the side was also helpless about this. This Young Lady's attainments in magic were unparalleled in the world, but her reserve of common sense knowledge was somewhat insufficient. As expected, she had been staying at home for too long.

"Senior, Senior Miya won't lose money. Actually, it's like this...."

Audrey was still thoughtful. The little fox hurriedly directed the fox doll on her head to jump onto Dorothy's shoulder and whispered in her ear to popularize science.

Of course, this invasion of the fox doll's territory also made the little giant dragon Fafnir, who was lying there, bare her teeth.

Fortunately, under Audrey's popularization, Dorothy understood what was going on very quickly. The Home Witch, who realized she had made a joke, blushed immediately, hurriedly lowered her head and pulled the scarf on her neck up, looking a bit embarrassed.

It turned out that fishing in the Witch World was no longer purely for fishing for "fish," but more like a treasure hunting activity.

The magic pattern arrays set in the Witch fishing ground not only hinder the perception of Witches, making it difficult for them to judge the situation under the water, but also allow this small fishing ground to communicate with other random water areas.

Therefore, on the surface, it looks like this Witch is fishing in a specialized fishing ground, but in fact, no one knows which world's water area the fishhook ran to after falling into the water.

Moreover, the bait used by Witches is also very special. In addition to the bait that is really for attracting "fish," there is also a special bait called "Fate Bait." That is a special fish bait processed and blessed by prophecy-type Witches. In addition to being effective for various fish, sometimes it will attract or actively bind some strange things according to the fisherman's luck.

Just like the ghost ship just now.

It's just that not everyone has such good luck. In fact, lucky people are always rare. The vast majority of gambling fishing enthusiasts who use expensive Fate Bait catch some stinky shoes, broken stones, old underwear thrown away by mermaids, etc., which are water garbage.

Like ghost ships, seabed treasures, diving residents of other worlds, etc., these are rare catches. Being able to catch something once is enough for an ordinary Witch fishing enthusiast to brag about for several years.

Of course, there are top-level catches, such as evil gods sleeping in the deep sea, sea dragon species wandering in the ocean, beautiful and dreamy mermaids, etc.

It's just that these top-level catches are not something ordinary Witches dare to think about. Let alone whether they have that luck, even if the luck really comes, whether you are fishing for the fish or the fish is fishing for you is hard to say.

Of course, there won't be any danger in a proper Witch fishing ground. After all, the array that connects to other sea areas is only useful for fishhooks and hooked catches, and it is invalid for the fisherman himself.

Therefore, even if you are dragged into the water, you are actually just taking a bath in the fish pond of the fishing ground. Except for being laughed at by other fishing enthusiasts for being embarrassed, nothing big will happen.

In short, not only various aquatic fish, in fact, almost everything as long as it is in a large enough water area theoretically has the possibility of being fished up by Witches.

This can't be called fishing at all; it's more like a water blind box, a water bottom lottery.

Well, with such an explanation, Dorothy could finally understand why there were so many fishing enthusiasts among Witches. After all, things like lotteries are really addictive.

"Great, I love lotteries the most. I must prove that I am not a 'non-chief' (unlucky person) today. I am determined to get the top-level catch."

Dorothy, who originally had no interest in fishing, became energetic at this time.

She saw that the position next to the three angel Witches who had just caught something was empty. Based on the simple idea of a senior "non-chief" rubbing off on the luck of the big shots, she hurriedly ran up and occupied the small pier.

"Here, here, let's fish here."

She greeted the sisters who were still by the river.

And after greeting the sisters, Dorothy looked at the three angel Witches at the pier next to her shyly, thinking about nodding and saying hello. After all, rubbing off on luck or something still requires being kind to others.

It was just that she didn't look, but she was startled when she looked.

"Ah this, isn't this the beautiful big sister of the Apocalypse Fleet I saw on the pier before?"

Seeing the red-haired eight-winged angel Witch in the center, Dorothy was shocked in her heart.

After all, she had only made eye contact with this big sister who was right in her "strike zone" before, so she had a deep impression. But she was still sighing that her charm had nowhere to be placed, and as a result, she ran into her again now. This couldn't help but make her sigh that fate was wonderful.

Speaking of which, this big sister had also greeted her at the time. It was a pity that she was too shy to reply. Now that she met her again, should she say something?

Forget it, I'm really not good at dealing with strangers, especially this kind of beautiful big sister. I'm also socially anxious and shy. At this time, it's better to just smile.

At that moment, the Home Witch smiled and nodded at the three angel Witches, which was considered a greeting.

Although she was in the image of an inconspicuous "earthy" Young Lady, her mouth was tightly covered by a scarf, so she actually smiled for nothing. However, the red-haired big sister opposite seemed to notice her greeting and politely nodded at her, which was considered a return gift.

"Oh, great, as expected, big sisters are the best."

Dorothy turned her head shyly, but she was cheering secretly in her heart.

Although she no longer had that worldly desire for beauty, the XP left over from her previous life was satisfied this time.

Of course, her desire was only this much. Even if she really had the opportunity to have a more in-depth exchange with this big sister, she wouldn't be willing. She would only lift her foot and let the other party crawl.

Things like women are best appreciated from a distance. It's too troublesome to be close, which will only affect the speed at which she learns magic.

And on the other side, Maria also looked at this inconspicuous little Witch who looked earthy and earthy with some confusion, and then sighed that although she had turned over a new leaf and was no longer as romantic and unrestrained as she had been for the past hundred years, her charm was indeed not reduced from the past.

No help for it, the temptation of a mature big sister like her to a little Witch who had just opened her heart was indeed too great. This little Witch was completely in the appearance of having a secret crush on her.

It was just that at this time, Maria obviously no longer had the mind to pay attention to this inconspicuous little Witch. Her attention was almost completely attracted by the Pure White Witch not far away.

The eight-winged angel big sister knew that the "fish" she had been waiting for all morning had finally taken the bait.

And looking at the other two Witches beside this Saintess, Maria was even more shocked in her heart, and then sighed that she really didn't misjudge the person. Sophie Liya was indeed ambitious. What kind of big shots are these people she is associating with?

For that dragon Witch with curved big horns on her head and an elegant and luxurious temperament, Maria naturally wouldn't not know her. After all, this Miss Miya was the princess of the Golden Township and also the richest person in the future Witch World—no, it should be said the entire Western Universe.

This was a big shot destined to stand at the very top of the entire Witch World in the future. Compared to her, the Young City Lord of the City of Glory, she was not known how much higher. And she was also the direct bloodline of Lord Long Wang, noble and supreme to the extreme.

Sophie Liya was actually so familiar with this Golden Princess. This is a great thing. Could it be that the Pope sent her to grow up in the Dragon Kingdom to mix with the connections of the Dragon Kingdom?

Forget it, whatever. In short, being able to get on the line with this big financier, then the subsequent reform will be much easier. At least you don't have to worry about insufficient military funds.

And besides this famous Golden Princess, looking at the nine-tailed fox Witch beside her....

Even though she had been a romantic Young City Lord for a hundred years and was long used to the temptation of beauty, Maria was stunned for a full five seconds when she saw this Witch's face, and then she forcibly woke up with a strong willpower.

She never expected that there would be such a beautiful person in the world. This charm was truly terrifying.

However, what was even more terrifying was that this young Witch dared to walk around openly without even covering her face despite being a "red-faced disaster."

This represented that this Witch, besides her beauty, also had a powerful force behind her capable of protecting this beauty. Otherwise, with her strength as a newly entered Great Witch, she wouldn't be able to protect herself and would have been snatched back to be a wife long ago.

After all, beauty without power only invites disaster.

And speaking of the nine-tailed fox Witch, hiss... could it be the one from Venus, the City of Art? Doesn't that mean it's from the Demon King's family?

Turtle, this is another Demon King direct descendant.

Although Venus is only the City of Art and its combat power is not strong—purely looking at the strength on the surface, it can't compare to her own City of Glory—but in terms of world influence, a hundred Cities of Glory can't compare to one Venus.

After all, who knows how terrifying the connection network of that group of great artists is. And relying on that huge connection relationship, Venus's news is also the most well-informed. The headquarters of the Witch Daily, which is popular throughout the Western Universe, is also in Venus.

Then, if this young Witch who is beautiful to the point of being dreamy is really as she guessed, then this one's identity will not be much worse than that Golden Princess.

Originally, Maria received instructions this time and hurriedly brought the fleet back just to support Sophie Liya. She was a bit worried that this princess, who had been growing up in the Dragon Kingdom, would be lonely in the ancestral court and would be squeezed out and bullied by that group of people in the ancestral court who looked down on people.

But now looking at the human network of her future master, Maria was completely relieved. With a connection network that was terrifying to this extent, why worry that the big things won't be accomplished?

It was just that.....

The red-haired eight-winged angel Witch turned her head and looked at the inconspicuous earthy Witch on the pier next to her again, with some confusion in her eyes.

Then who is this?

Just now, she noticed that this inconspicuous earthy Witch seemed to have come with Sophie Liya and the others. Could it be that she is also some incredible big shot?

However, Maria looked left and right, and after another round of deep thinking, she couldn't find anyone who could fit this image.

Could it be some little genius in the Witch Academy? Also, if it wasn't for entering the circle of these big shots by birth, it could only be by talent.

She thought so, and then took out her spell book, wanting to go to the Witch Academy forum to see it after a long time.

Before these years, she had been commanding the fleet to fight everywhere on the front line and didn't have much time to care about others. The last time she looked at the academy forum was a few years ago when Sophie Liya became the Student Council President, but it had only been a few years. Could it be that some incredible genius had appeared in the academy again?

Maria thought so curiously, and then....

A few seconds later, after quickly scanning the forum, she raised her head abruptly, looking at the inconspicuous little Witch opposite, and directly gasped, almost suffocating herself.

So this inconspicuous little Witch is the center of this group of future big shots, and is the resume of this young Witch, who is called "Young Lady," true?

Sophie Liya's rumored girlfriend, the second genius after the Demon King to pass the nine-system joint examination, the peerless ruthless person who singled out the entire Martial Arts club and won, the ultimate "God of Learning" whom even the arrogant top students of the Eye of Truth worship and admire, the descending god who broadcasted the creation of the world in the broken Moon Rabbit World.....

Ah this... is this definitely not some plot fictionalized in a third-rate YY novel?

... Maria is shocked... ===== CHAPTER 407 =====
