Chapter 95

"Magic Mirror, Magic Mirror, there is a witch in the Witch Academy who is peerlessly beautiful, outshining all others, whose world-shaking talent makes scholars feel ashamed, and whose peerless strength makes the strongest submit. Who is that witch?"

"Hmm, that's right, of course it's me, Dorothy."

The morning after, on the top floor of the Shining Tower, the little witch who had just woken up was performing her daily routine in front of the mirror as usual.

And the vanity mirror in front of her reflected a beauty with a sickly look; the fragility revealed in the beauty's furrowed brows was enough to make one's heart melt.

It was just a pity that, the next second, this beauty raised an eyebrow, looking completely self-satisfied.

"Ah, as expected of me, this pitiful little look is enough to make even me fall in love with myself. Even someone like Lin Daiyu would be so angry at seeing me that she'd uproot a willow tree."

The two beauties, in front of the mirror and in the mirror, gave each other a thumbs-up, seemingly having reached a consensus.

However, after being slightly excited for a while, Dorothy fell into a state of lethargy once again.

This wasn't because she was sick or anything. With a witch's constitution, unless cursed by someone, there would be no abnormalities like colds or fevers, let alone the fact that she was a Dragon Witch. Given a dragon's magic resistance, she could directly ignore most ordinary curses.

The reason she looked so sickly was simply a side effect of excessive mana consumption, but it wasn't serious. Usually, once her mana recovered and she rested for a day or two, she'd be a good... woman again?

Never mind, that's about the meaning of it.

Dorothy was too lazy to use her still-dizzy brain. She forced herself to muster a little energy to cast a changing and washing spell on herself, and then, like a salted fish, she enjoyed the service of the magic.

After everything was ready, she stood up reluctantly, but was too lazy to walk. She simply opened her dragon wings with a "pop" and, using the conceptual flight ability that came with the wings, floated like a ghost toward the living room.

"Ah, my wings."

Just as she was passing through the door, her dragon wings, which were a full four or five meters long when spread, slammed into the door frame—and at the base of the wings, no less. This feeling was just like stubbing one's pinky toe while walking. It hurt so much that Dorothy instantly retracted her wings, then rolled around on the ground wailing.

"Damn, what kind of hellish building quality is this? These are dragon wings, dragon wings! Normally, shouldn't the door frame be the one that breaks?"

Dorothy complained indignantly.

However......

"Young Lady, before you tear down the house, please remember that this is the Shining Tower, a wonder of architecture. This door frame isn't cheap; the money you earned yesterday should barely be enough to compensate for it."

Sophie Liya's exquisite and holy face appeared in the line of sight of Dorothy, who was still lying on the ground. The angel witch was looking helplessly at her own young lady, who was acting crazy early in the morning, and then said.

"It's time to eat. Since the person who was supposed to be responsible for cooking has been playing dead, let's just make do with what we have today."

"Oh, coming, coming."

As soon as she heard it was time to eat, Dorothy suddenly didn't feel any pain at all. The Dragon Witch's formidable self-healing ability suddenly activated. She climbed up, full of energy, and ran to the dining table, skillfully tucked the napkin into her collar, and raised her knife and fork.

"What are we eating today?"

Severely lacking mana, she felt she could swallow a whole sub-dragon right now. Her body was craving those high-quality ingredients rich in mana.

"Bull-Dragon Milk, and fried Stealing-Egg Dragon eggs."

In the kitchen, Sophie Liya used Mage Hand to bring over two trays. The trays held two simple and unadorned breakfasts.

"Just this....?"

Dorothy's face fell at a speed visible to the naked eye. The person who had just been full of spirit was once again sickly and pitiful.

"Just this, Young Lady. When mana is empty, one must avoid overeating. This kind of crude mana-replenishment method, while very satisfying, is harmful to a witch's body. Please keep this in mind. If you are really hungry, you can drink a few more cups of dragon milk. The mana in dragon milk is not low, and it is much gentler than the mana in meat, making it easier to absorb."

The angel witch slammed a large bucket of fresh dragon milk onto the table.

Dorothy: "......"

Fine, fine.

She raised her milk cup reluctantly and drank it all in one gulp.

She actually didn't really like these dairy products. She didn't like drinking milk or anything like that in her past life, so now, while drinking the milk, she was making a bitter face like a child.

She was thinking that in a while, she should update the recipes for the "Witch's Magic Kitchen Series." This time, she must add recipes for mana-nourishing dishes. The problem of the mana in the high-quality ingredients that Sophie Liya mentioned being too "crude" could be completely compensated for through culinary skills.

Hmph, this angel is just weak. If her cooking skills are trash and she can't properly refine the mana in the ingredients, she should just say so. Why take such a big detour?

It's just that......

"Oh my, this is actually kind of tasty."

Just after one gulp, Dorothy's eyes suddenly lit up. She found that the milk of this so-called Bull-Dragon was unexpectedly delicious. Not only was there no fishy smell of milk, but it was unexpectedly sweet. The milky fragrance was mixed with the faint scent of flowers and herbs, making it very refreshing.

Moreover, the milk was indeed full of mana. This mana, which was so gentle that even a cub could easily absorb it, began to nourish Dorothy's body, giving her whole body a feeling of relief like a long drought meeting sweet rain.

Then let's try this so-called Stealing-Egg Dragon egg. By the way, is this egg the Stealing-Egg Dragon's own egg, or an egg they stole?

Whatever, I'll eat it.

Another "ah-woo" bite, and Dorothy's eyes narrowed comfortably.

Wow, what kind of divine texture is this? Even though it's a fried egg, the texture is as Q-bouncy and smooth as jelly, and there's also no egg-fishy smell; instead, it's overflowing with the fragrance of meat.

Wonderful, wonderful. I'm sorry, Sophie Liya, I apologize for my thought of underestimating you just now. It turns out your cooking can also be great.

...... The hungry witch is eating and drinking in a frenzy......

And across from Dorothy, Sophie Liya felt a bit guilty.

Well, actually, it was because after getting used to the Young Lady's cooking over the past two days, she could no longer eat the dishes made with her own half-baked cooking skills. The reason this breakfast was so simple today was simply because there were only these two ingredients at home that didn't require complex processing; they were already delicious enough on their own.

Both this Bull-Dragon and the Stealing-Egg Dragon were strange sub-dragons from a gourmet world. That gourmet world was also a world that the Witch Realm had once conquered. Looking at the whole world from the outside, it was like a delicious cake, and in fact, it was. This entire world was edible; every blade of grass, every tree, and even the soil on the ground were excellent ingredients.

Then....

Then this world was taken a bite of by the willful Long Wang.

When that world was discovered, it happened to be during the Long Wang's reign, and that gourmet world was unexpectedly strong. Several peak witches had been deadlocked for a long time without successfully taking it down, eventually alarming the Long Wang, and then it was the Witch King herself who led the expedition.

When she saw that world, the Long Wang's eyes lit up directly. She immediately expressed that she wanted to take a bite. The several peak witches serving the Long Wang hurriedly started to remonstrate to the death. If they really let this world-ending magic dragon, whose true form was bigger than the world, take a bite, this entire gourmet world would be gone, and then everyone's previous hard work would have been in vain.

But in the end, the willful Long Wang still took an "ah-woo" bite. Fortunately, she probably wasn't really hungry that day, so this gourmet world barely escaped the dragon's mouth. It was really only bitten a little bit; there was just a cute notch on the edge of the cake world, and the tooth marks on it were clearly visible.

And after this bite, the resisters in that cake world, who were almost eaten together and nearly lost their lives in the dragon's mouth, were also scared. They no longer dared to resist, and one after another, they expressed their willingness to be the witches' dogs and give the best food to the witches.

Because it was conquered by the Long Wang, the ownership of this gourmet world also belonged to the Dragon Kingdom. However, in order not to drain the pond to catch the fish, the gourmet food produced by this world every year was limited and in short supply. Thanks to her teacher being a newly promoted Prince of the Blood with great power, she did have quite a quota every year.

The food produced in this world was also the teacher's favorite in the past. Even Sophie Liya, the disciple she loved most, could only occasionally snatch food from the dragon's mouth. But now.....

Thinking of the reserve food that was almost full in the space-folding refrigerator at home, Sophie Liya suddenly felt that the milk she was drinking didn't taste good anymore.

What kind of crappy milk is this? Why is it sour? It must be expired.

..... The angel witch is turning into a lemon.....
