"Senior Sister, you've worked hard."

After Senior Sister Senior Miya finally dealt with the group of flattering guests and reunited with everyone, Dorothy hurriedly stepped forward to serve tea and water, massage and knock on the legs for Senior Sister.

Hmm, if it weren't for Senior Sister helping her out just now, she felt that she might have been smiling awkwardly until her face was paralyzed today.

And the Golden Princess rarely saw her crush so diligent, and was a bit flattered for a moment, but she still enjoyed the Home Witch's service happily.

Actually, for her, those were just small scenes just now, and it was quite simple to deal with, and she didn't feel tired anywhere, but this could be exchanged for a diligent service from the little fairy, and Senior Sister Senior Miya felt that she made a huge profit this time.

I really hope there will be more such banquets in the future.

The Golden Princess thought so in her heart.

However, she wasn't just dealing with things just now; an excellent merchant also needs to have the ability to detect key information from other people's words.

"Sisters, this banquet doesn't seem simple."

Senior Sister Senior Miya opened her mouth to prepare to share the information she had inferred from chatting with many guests just now with everyone, but she also paid special attention to Audrey's reaction on the side, a bit worried that her next words would hurt this innocent and cute little Junior Sister.

After all, the Brilliant Dragon contained the divinity of the Earth Mother God, and Senior Sister Senior Miya was really good at taking care of cubs.

"Senior Sister, it doesn't matter; I've long been prepared."

Seeing Senior Sister's concerned eyes, Audrey was also very moved; she squeezed a smile on her face, and then commanded the little fox puppet to use a full-of-energy voice to say.

"Senior Sister Senior Miya, did you hear anything just now?"

Ma Ma Xier rubbed her younger sister's ears with some heartache, and then asked with some embarrassment but some worry.

Clearly, the two sisters were the landlords, but now the information had to be provided by Senior Sister Senior Miya, which was truly shameful.

And this time, it was her younger sister who took the initiative to invite everyone to Haiyuecheng to play; if there was any disturbance in the city now, and everyone was involved, then they would be even more sorry for the sisters.

If it weren't for the fact that the mothers were preparing for the upcoming performance backstage now, and she didn't want to disturb them, she would have wanted to take out her spell book and ask her mothers directly.

"I didn't hear much useful news, but from the words of others, I infer that it should be to deal with the Phantom Thief Jack who has been spreading wildly recently."

Senior Sister Senior Miya didn't sell out, she directly said her inference.

"Phantom Thief Jack?"

Dorothy was stunned; everyone had discussed this figure in the urban legend of Haiyuecheng once before.

And she also remembered the somewhat mysterious and strange figure she saw in a glimpse that felt like a hallucination when she was queuing to enter the city.

"Isn't it said that the Phantom Thief's notice letter was sent to the museum? I remember what she took a fancy to this time seems to be some Demon King's love letter?"

The Home Witch recalled the news she had seen before.

At that time, she wanted to complain; the cultural relics of the Witch world are truly strange; this thing like Demon King's love letter can be regarded as a cultural relic, and it is even a treasure of the museum.

However, she did a rough conversion; this is almost equivalent to the love letters written by the Three Emperors and Five Emperors of her past life; if this thing can really be preserved in the world, it is not an exaggeration to say it is a national treasure.

The reason why she felt this was strange was probably because Demon King herself was still alive now, and she was still lively and appeared frequently, which really didn't have the mystery and thickness of historical figures.

Moreover, she was actually a bit curious; with Adi's personality she knew, how could this guy allow her love letter to be exposed, and still be placed in the museum for everyone to see?

This is not Adi at all, nor is it Demon King; she should have jumped up to eliminate the dark history long ago.

Meanwhile, Senior Senior Miya and Ma De Lin exchanged glances, silently forming a strategic alliance.

Damn it, the President had already left, yet she still left behind such a move. The enemy was cunning; they had no choice but to put aside their disputes and join forces to face the enemy together.

Above the Home Witch's head, Senior Hat was enjoying the drama to the fullest.

She loved watching Qian Bao's romantic entanglements the most, but it was a pity they didn't fight; it wasn't exciting enough.

Only Aodaili felt out of place with everyone else. Having long had a crush, she truly only saw the Senior as a Senior, so she had no psychological burden.

Sensing the subtle atmosphere in the cabin, the little fox simply slipped to the Senior's side and began manipulating her fox puppet to introduce the scenery outside the window.

Although Haiyuecheng was her hometown, due to her autism and social anxiety, she hadn't actually left the house many times since she was a child, so she wasn't very familiar with the city scenery outside the window either.

But that didn't matter. Their family was in the business of information gathering, after all. Besides, what era was this? Netizens didn't need to leave the house to know everything under the sun.

Relying on the various gossip she had heard during her high-intensity web surfing in the past, she could now look at any building and recount the anecdotes that had happened there.

Listening to the little Junior's explanation, Dorothy gazed at the colorful, fantastical scenery outside the window.

This Haiyuecheng was nicknamed the City of Night, but in the Home Witch's opinion, the name "City That Never Sleeps" might suit it better.

It was already night; the sun had set, and the silver moon, manifested by the world's consciousness, rose slowly, casting a soft moonlight.

Yet, did this city need moonlight for illumination?

The iridescent mana marking the aerial lanes, the neon lights surrounding the edges of buildings, the giant screens on top of skyscrapers playing videos of popular stars, the light show of magical animals performing above the city, the bustling traffic of cars and streetlights on the sidewalks below, the reflection of lights on the city river...

All kinds of lights directly dispelled the darkness, making the city seem perpetually bathed in radiance, shining exceptionally bright.

Hmm, in contrast to these bright lights, the moonlight in the sky seemed rather lonely and redundant.

"The city lives up to its name. It really is a beautiful city."

Dorothy's eyes reflected the myriad lights, and she sighed in her heart.

Venus, the word in the Witch language, meant love and beauty.

The City of Love and Beauty—whether there was love was hard to say, but it was truly beautiful.

"Hey, Aodaili, the plastic surgery and beauty business in this city must be very profitable, right?"

The little fox was introducing the delicious food and fun things in the city to the world when she suddenly heard her Senior ask this.

The Nine-Tailed Fox Witch was stunned for a moment.

Ah, this... this really touched upon her blind spot of knowledge.

After all, she looked like this; where would she need plastic surgery or beauty treatments?

However, thinking about her mothers' high daily expenditures on appearance and body maintenance, she nodded.

"It should be very profitable. I see many people in the city doing this."

Aodaili said somewhat uncertainly.

To this, Dorothy nodded.

She had just taken a rough look along the way and discovered that the average attractiveness in Haiyuecheng was truly high. Almost everyone was a great beauty, and even the non-human races walking on the streets below were all handsome men and beautiful women—the attractiveness was ridiculously high.

But most of them were beautiful in a cookie-cutter way, making one a bit face-blind.

Even though it was the real world, it gave the Home Witch a feeling similar to scrolling through short videos in her past life.

Well, in the technological world of her past life, people could use all sorts of technology for beauty, so why couldn't people in the magical world use all sorts of magic for beauty?

Tsk, no wonder the Witch's Four Great Evil Arts were so popular; their sales were second only to Gourmet Magic among all the magic she had developed.

This really was "food and sex are human nature."

Dorothy smelled a new business opportunity.

But now wasn't the time to think about that.

The White Dragon warship was flying at high speed along the aerial lane, and the portal on the outer ring was already in sight. The Home Witch hurriedly cast a Spatial Control buff on herself.

Although, after training with Aunt Zi, her spatial talent had been developed to a certain extent, and her old problem of motion sickness from teleportation had improved, she still only felt fine with short-distance teleportation; long-distance teleportation still made her uncomfortable for a while.

And this Haiyuecheng was too big. The distance from the outer ring to the inner ring where Aodaili's family lived was quite far.

However, if the outermost ring of Haiyuecheng was already this bustling, what would the inner city look like?

The Home Witch was very curious.

As she closed and opened her eyes, the White Dragon warship had already passed through the portal and arrived in a brand-new area.

Dorothy immediately looked around, only to find that compared to the hustle and bustle outside, this inner city was much quieter and more solemn.

There was no light pollution from various lights; looking around, there was a large area of green vegetation. The various luxurious private floating islands were one prettier than the next, and the public areas were filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, with various ornamental magical animals playing in gardens that looked like dreams.

Hmm, elegant, truly too elegant.

It was just that the contrast of clubbing in a bar one second and playing piano or chess the next made one feel a bit unaccustomed.

"We're here, Senior. That's my home ahead."

However, the one who was unaccustomed was probably just Dorothy herself. Aodaili beside her seemed to have long been used to it. The little fox pointed to a huge floating island in front of the window, and her little puppet shouted excitedly.

Dorothy also looked in the direction pointed by the little Junior, and for a moment, she was speechless.

Although she knew the little Junior's family was very wealthy, she really didn't expect them to be this wealthy.

Hmm, there was indeed a floating island clearly visible ahead. Even among the many luxurious floating islands in this inner city, that one stood out from the crowd.

Firstly, because of its location—this floating island was the center of the inner city, occupying the absolute C-position.

Just as the Tower of Radiance was the center of the Witch Academy, this large floating island was the center of Haiyuecheng, located in the zero ring.

Secondly, it was because of the massive mana fluctuations in the center of the floating island.

As a professional Civil Engineering Witch, the Home Witch saw the reason for these mana fluctuations at a glance.

My civil engineering soul is stirred; there must be a wonder on this island, and a great wonder at that.

Dorothy felt a bit restless.

Hehehe, can I touch your wonder?

*Cough, cough. *

She wiped the tears flowing from the corner of her mouth and then became serious and solemn.

The White Dragon warship arrived at the entrance of this central floating island without obstruction. On the landing pad at the entrance of the floating island, a large group of witches dressed in maid outfits had been waiting there for a long time.

After the warship stopped steadily and the cabin door opened, Dorothy was speechless for a moment when she saw the long line of thousands of maids arranged on both sides of the road.

Damn it, is this what a top-tier wealthy family is? Thousands of maids at home?

And these were all witches. If you counted the non-human maids, heaven knows how many people they had to support.

But this was normal. After all, maintaining and caring for such a large floating island was quite troublesome; if there were too few people, they wouldn't be able to handle it at all.

"But as expected, there was no need for such a big formation, right? I can't quite handle it."

Although she understood the logic, being stared at by so many beautiful maid ladies all of a sudden made the Home Witch feel a bit shy. She silently retreated behind Ma De Lin and complained in a low voice to the Succubus Witch.

"I didn't expect the mothers to make such a big scene either. But Young Lady, you have to understand. After all, this is the first time Aodaili has brought a friend home to visit in so many years. The mothers are probably overjoyed."

Ma De Lin also looked helplessly at her younger sister hiding behind the Young Lady.

Even though she was home, Aodaili's social anxiety flared up again the moment she saw the maid line.

Hmm, this sister was even afraid of her own maids.

If the Succubus Witch hadn't also been at the Witch Academy and seen with her own eyes how her sister made friends under the Young Lady's guidance, she probably would have been just as overjoyed as the mothers when she heard that her sister could bring a friend home to visit.
