Chapter 757: Encounter Again
That scream was so piercing, as if it were a shrill ghost cry from the Nine Netherworlds, making one subconsciously want to cover their ears, and their heart couldn't help but feel chilled.
Just by listening to this scream, you could directly feel how terrifying the fear that the owner of this voice was enduring at this moment was.
Dorothy was also a person of wide experience. She had been to the interrogation department of the Tribunal, but to be honest, even in the interrogation department, the fear emitted by most ordinary prisoners didn't have as much as this scream, nor would it be so pure, or rather, delicious.
Hmm, just like the "demon feast" she once made in the interrogation department using emotions as ingredients and interrogation as culinary art, for demon witches, negative energies like fear and despair are supreme delicacies.
"Good fellow, this Scream House really has something."
Dorothy directly raised the grade of this haunted house in her heart.
Originally, hearing that it was a web-celebrity check-in shop, she didn't take it to heart. After all, in this day and age, how many good places can there be that are related to web celebrities?
Even though this shop was said to have scared a Necromancy big witch into fainting, this kind of marketing method in this day and age couldn't be called very fresh. Who couldn't find a few shills?
But now, ordinary shills couldn't make such a miserable scream, unless the shill inside was a top-tier actor. But what actor witch with this acting skill would come to this ghost place to be a shill?
The Home Witch turned to look at the sisters beside her and found that they, who had been laughing and joking and hadn't taken this haunted house seriously, were now also looking serious, clearly realizing the severity of the problem.
Dorothy paid extra attention to her little junior sister, Audrey. After all, in her view, the most timid among everyone was this little fox in the late stages of social anxiety.
Fortunately, although Audrey's tail was a bit bristled by that scream, she wasn't panicked to the point of being at a loss.
The Home Witch reached out and rubbed her little junior sister's head, signaling her not to be afraid, and the fluffy ears on the little fox's head twitched, also relaxing a bit.
And just as Dorothy was about to move forward again, she felt her hem being pulled by someone.
At first, the Home Witch thought it was her sister Alice, so she lowered her head to look at the little witch, but she found that Alice was full of excitement at this moment, and the little one wasn't afraid at all.
Then who pulled me?
A question mark appeared on Dorothy's head, and then she saw the Fallen Angel miss who had somehow already moved to her side.
Eh, no way, didn't you almost become a Deadly Sin Demon God back then? What kind of Demon God is so timid?
The Home Witch felt this was absolutely impossible.
But a flash of magic in her eyes clearly showed that the invisible magic hand pulling her hem was indeed connected to Lucifiel.
Dorothy: "..."
The Home Witch fell silent for a moment, and then her smile gradually became perverted. She looked at this bad woman who had turned her head and didn't dare to look at her at all with a narrow gaze, only making the Fallen Angel miss feel terrified and ashamed to death.
Damn it, she will definitely be ruthlessly mocked by the eldest miss. This guy won't let go of such a good opportunity to play with me.
Lucifiel thought this in despair.
This social death in front of the sisters seemed unavoidable.
It's just that what surprised the Fallen Angel miss was that the eldest miss's mockery she imagined didn't come. The eldest miss just smiled at her wickedly, and then acted as if nothing had happened, continuing to walk forward.
This made the Fallen Angel miss feel a bit of inexplicable regret while feeling relieved.
Damn it, was she deliberately scaring me?
Feeling teased, Lucifiel was trembling with anger. She really wanted to be a bit tougher and directly let go of the eldest miss's hem, then indicate, "Eldest miss, don't be too proud too early." But the intermittent ghost screams lingering in her ears really made her unable to be tough.
"Not tough anymore, not tough anymore. I am the eldest miss's person anyway. Isn't it a matter of course to be protected by her?"
The Fallen Angel miss persuaded herself like this, and then couldn't help but get closer to the eldest miss.
No way, after all, essentially, whether it's Lucifiel or Sophie Liya, they are actually just quiet and well-behaved little women with no ambition. The life trajectory most suitable for them is actually to find someone to marry early and then stay at home to safely support their husband and teach their children.
Although some people think this is not seeking progress, self-degradation, and very shameful, everyone has their own way of living that is most suitable for them. This is not a matter of high or low; only you know if it is suitable or not.
It's just a pity that the birth of a pure white witch destined her life not to be so ordinary. So, in order to survive, she, who was naturally peaceful and even a bit cowardly, had to use other means to arm herself, make herself strong, and then do her best to climb up as much as possible.
It's just that such a disguise can be maintained in front of others, but the nature of things is often not something that can be easily changed.
If Lucifiel came to this haunted house alone, the Fallen Angel miss would immediately put on the armor of the heart, let herself become a disguised strength, and then decisively cut off the cowardice in her heart to face the fear directly.
Because she knew clearly that she could only rely on herself.
But who let the eldest miss be by her side now?
Although having a reliance and a backing is a good thing, it also makes people subconsciously develop a sense of dependence and become less strong and independent.
"Sigh, main body, you are truly decisive and ruthless. After discovering this, you left decisively. Just looking at this point, you are much stronger than me."
Lucifiel thought this in her heart.
She was greedy for the sense of security brought by the eldest miss. That failed fate line once told her that there is nothing in this world more precious than a safe and stable place to live.
If it were her, she would be reluctant to leave the eldest miss. Even if she had to cling to her, she would use all means to stay by the eldest miss's side.
But the main body doesn't think so.
Because she knows clearly that the eldest miss cannot stay stagnant forever. Her future is destined to be infinitely broad. There will be the glory of the sun and moon to crown her, and supreme power to be bestowed upon her.
And if you are greedy for temporary pleasure now and fall into this gentleness, when you look back in the future, you will find that the eldest miss who was once within reach has become incomparably distant.
Although she believes that the eldest miss wouldn't utilitarianly forget old friends because of the disparity in power and status, the pride remaining in Sophie Liya's heart cannot tolerate this.
She knows that even if the eldest miss doesn't change, she is far from being that strong. By then, she will definitely be worried about gains and losses, become neurotic, and be suspicious every day, like a shrew.
By then, she wouldn't be decent at all.
So, for a longer future, what she needs now is not to be greedy for temporary pleasure, but to better improve and strengthen herself, to make herself truly independent and confident.
Only in this way, when the day the eldest miss is crowned comes, can she proudly and confidently stand by her side and look at her as an equal.
Instead of standing in the crowd of onlookers and looking at any glorious person approaching the eldest miss with jealous and disgusting eyes, like a stinking bug in the sewer.
These truths, Lucifiel, as a clone, also understands.
But some things, understanding is one thing, but not being able to do it is another. So, she is only a clone, and the main body is the main body.
The Fallen Angel miss sighed.
But this is also not bad. The main body is responsible for struggling, and she is responsible for palace fighting. Everyone performs their own duties.
And Dorothy naturally didn't know the thoughts of the Fallen Angel miss beside her. She went straight to the counter of the Scream House, and then was stunned.
"Uh, Miss Beelzebub?"
Looking at the petite "big" witch who was writing and drawing behind the counter, the Home Witch was somewhat surprised.
This was none other than the princess of the Demon King's family with whom she had dinner at the banquet last night.
Good fellow, can a princess come to open a haunted house in this day and age?
But this is normal. If it were this big shot, then it's no wonder this Scream House could scare people like that.
"Uh... who are you? Miss Dorothy?"
The demon princess behind the counter raised her head, first looking at the earthy-looking little witch in front of her with surprise, feeling a bit confused. She didn't seem to recognize this little witch.
However, when she saw the Succubus sisters behind her and that Golden Princess, she suddenly realized.
So it was that interesting little guy she met at the banquet last night.
Beelzebub was even more surprised. After all, the one she had a pleasant conversation with at the banquet hall last night was a heroic and extraordinary Dragon Witch, which was too different from this earthy girl with braids and black-rimmed glasses now.
Even if you're playing with contrast, you're too different. You're directly two people.
She thought this in her heart.
However, because of the pleasant conversation last night, she still showed a smile and enthusiastically greeted Dorothy and the others.
"Are you guys here to play too? Give me your ID cards, I'll help you register first. But you might have to wait a while, you can only go in after the previous batch of guests comes out."
The demon princess said this.
"Hmm, it's okay, we're not in a hurry."
Dorothy took out her ID card and handed it over, then asked with a smile.
"Miss Beelzebub, did you open this Scream House?"
The demon princess took the ID cards of Dorothy and the others, swiped them on the card reader on the side, and operated the registration on the magic web terminal on the side, before raising her head, shaking her head while returning the ID cards to everyone.
"Of course I didn't open it. This is my sister's experimental project. I came to help look after it and take some material by the way. I'm preparing to write a horror novel for my next book. I have a premonition that the next book will definitely be a hit."
This petite big witch raised her head and chest, saying this very confidently.
Hmm, very cute, but the earth-shaking movement was indeed hard for people to look away from.
So, who did this Beelzebub give birth to with Adi? Her biological mother must be very powerful, otherwise, just Adi...
The Home Witch remembered those statues and portraits of the Demon King. The common feature of those works was the lack of a bit of curve beauty.
Hmm, although the long legs are all great.
"Hmm, hmm, the next book will definitely be a hit."
Dorothy also sincerely offered her blessings.
Although she knew that this princess would likely become the Gluttony Demon God in the future, she felt that it might be more promising for the other party to change careers and become a chef early.
But she didn't feel it; Beelzebub had to feel it herself. Other people's life choices were not for her, an outsider, to point fingers at, just as she hoped that she could dominate her own life.
Whether it can succeed is another matter; whether it is happy is her own feeling.
"Haha, thank you for your kind words."
Feeling the sincerity of the new friend in front of her, the demon princess also showed a rare, hearty smile.
Hmm, having a friend who understands each other is really quite happy.
And beside the Home Witch, the other sisters were looking at Dorothy with some surprise, surprised at her connections.
How capable are you of flirting? How can you meet an acquaintance just by strolling on the street? When did you get to know this "big" princess?
Although everyone present seemed to be royal relatives, they, these princesses separated by I don't know how many generations, still had some gap with this genuine princess.
Especially Madeline and Audrey, who felt great pressure. After all, according to seniority, the sisters would have to kowtow a few times to the person in front of them and respectfully call out "Ancestor."
Fortunately, the Witch World is not so particular about seniority. After all, they are a long-lived species, and not many are really old, so there is no need to be too respectful.
And Dorothy was thinking about Miss Beelzebub's words just now.
Eh, her sister's shop...
She herself is considered quite young among the Demon King's daughters, and a younger sister...
The Home Witch couldn't help but think of that Wendigo miss she had met once in the interrogation department.
And just as she thought of this, the door on the side opened, and a few witches who were crying and howling helped each other crawl out.
Hmm, they literally crawled out.
Their legs seemed to have lost bone support and were shaking so much they couldn't stand still, and the makeup on their originally quite pretty faces had long been ruined by tears and snot, each looking extremely embarrassed.
Clearly, the shrill screams everyone heard before were made by these people.
It's just that, although they sounded miserable before, seeing is believing. When the appearance of these previous customers was presented in front of everyone, this impact...
Hmm, Dorothy felt that the Fallen Angel witch beside her was almost hanging directly on her, and the little fox's tail was bristled.
Oh my god, this seems to be really a bit scary. Is it too late for us to quit now?
The Home Witch was also a bit cowardly.
And just as she was thinking about whether to really run away, a familiar tall figure wearing a bone mask also walked out from behind those customers.
Ah, this, it really is Miss Wendigo.
Dorothy was surprised. ===== CHAPTER 758 =====
