Chapter 45: No Face to See People
The magical beast carriage was still moving forward.
At this point, having reached the port, the road became somewhat congested. Although the Haiyue Territory was only considered an eighteenth-tier small city in the Witch World, for the various Different race under the Haiyue Territory, this Witch Floating Island was the absolute center of the entire vast territory.
The Different race who could live on this Floating Island were all the elite among their respective groups. Every year, countless Different race would come to this Floating Island to work hard, harboring various ideals. Even though the cost of boarding the island was very expensive, and the living expenses on the island were all according to Witch standards, which was a bit difficult for weaker Different race, this still couldn't stop those Different race who yearned for the Witch Worldfrom flocking here.
For example, Dorothy's father, Adam, was once one of these dream chasers.
Therefore, even though the port road had been built wide enough, it was still overcrowded. Coupled with the fact that Different race needed to go through procedures and registration when visiting the Witch Floating Island for the first time, it appeared very congested.
However, this congestion had nothing to do with the Demonesses. After all, they flew directly. The ground was very crowded, but the sky was quite spacious.
The Floating Island no-fly zone generally only took effect in the main urban area. In the suburban port, Demonesses could fly however they wanted. As long as you didn't cause traffic accidents, no one would care even if you performed aerial acrobatics.
Therefore, the eight unicorn pegasi pulling the carriage spread their wings, and with light hoofbeats, the magical carriage sped through the sea of clouds. Below, various races who were still queuing in boredom looked up and saw this luxurious carriage flying by. Many children started shouting and calling their parents, while the adult Different race looked at this luxurious carriage, which resembled a divine vehicle from mythology, with longing and yearning, then quickly lowered their heads and continued to queue.
The life of a Demoness was too far out of reach for them, these Different race, no different from mythology. The affairs of the gods were beyond the imagination of mortals like them, so they should instead think about how they could live in this heavenly divine realm later.
These people on the ground below, who were prominent figures in their respective groups, had sacrificed everything to gain this opportunity to ascend to the sky, and they absolutely could not fall back into the mortal world again.
In fact, it wasn't just the Different race who were amazed by this luxurious carriage; even the Demonesses flying in the sky at this moment were all manipulating their brooms to make way, fearing that they might accidentally bump into it. If they did, they would be bankrupt and unable to compensate.
Many younger Demonesses even screamed excitedly, then took out their wands and continuously cast recording spells, preparing to post it on their magic network Friends Circle later, stating that they encountered a big shot today.
Older Demonesses, however, paid more attention to the roaring dragon emblem on the carriage, then showed surprise, wondering why a Dragon Witch would come to their eighteenth-tier small city, and judging by the display, it seemed to be a very important person.
Perhaps they would have another topic to discuss when they went home for dinner tonight.
Inside the carriage, Dorothy looked out the window and felt quite strange.
Just yesterday, she was probably still one of the onlookers outside. At that time, she was looking at the Hai Yue Floating Island and sighing, 'A true man should be like this,' and so on. Now, she herself had become the object of others' envy.
She wondered if any of the passersby outside would have thoughts like 'I can take her place,' just as she had before.
Fate, oh, it's so wonderful.
However, after Transmigration this teleportation gate, it would be the Witch Academy. Although arriving at school in such a luxurious car felt great, wasn't it a bit too high-profile?
She thought to herself, a little unworthily.
Across from her, Youfeiliya glanced at her, instantly understanding her daughter's thoughts, so she spoke.
"Take back that disgraceful look. If you want to become a qualified lord in the future, proper pomp is essential. As a lord, your every word and action should be an example to your subjects. You must be able to ignite their desires and give them motivation to move forward."
"Do you think it's noble to remain simple in words and deeds after reaching a high position? Heh, foolish. If you, as the lord, are still simple, then what about your followers? Can they possibly have more pomp than you, the lord? They can only follow your simplicity, but is the purpose of your followers following you to live a hard and simple life together? If everyone in the entire territory is simple, how can it develop?"
"Dorothy, you must remember, everything else in this world is false; only strength and self-interest are the true power in the hands of those in power. You must use absolute strength to deter everyone, making them firmly believe that you can succeed. You must use self-interest to attract everyone, making them feel that following you is profitable. Both kindness and severity are what a qualified lord should embody."
The Dragon Witch reprimanded her disappointing daughter, imparting her experience as a lord.
Alas, this daughter was good in every way, except her vision was not good enough. Why did she always want to show weakness and hide her talents? This timidness, without any of the unrestrainedness and arrogance a young Demoness should have.
Setting everything else aside, what was with her attire?
Long bangs, big glasses, a scarf around her neck covering half her face. What was wrong? Was she unable to see people?
But speaking of which, she, as a mother, seemed to still not know what her daughter looked like until now.
Suddenly realizing this, the Dragon Witch acted decisively. She reached out and took off her daughter's glasses, pulled down the scarf from her neck, and finally pushed up her long bangs, and then...
When that perfect face, capable of toppling kingdoms and enchanting all living beings, was fully revealed, the carriage once again fell silent. Not only Youfeiliya, but even the Angel Witch, who had only seen a side profile, held her breath, momentarily losing the ability to speak.
Youfeiliya: "..."
Sophia: "..."
The Dragon Witch silently lowered her daughter's bangs, put her glasses back on, re-wrapped the scarf, blocking even more, and only then did she let out a sigh of relief.
"You should be more careful when you go out in the future. Girls must protect themselves when outside. There are many bad people out there. And Sophia, you too, you must protect Dorothy at school in the future. Keep a close eye on her and don't let just anyone get close to her."
"Hmm, and Dorothy, you shouldn't stay in the student dormitory. Just move in with Sophia. Otherwise, I'm a bit worried."
Youfeiliya was silent for a moment. She carefully recalled her family's genealogy, confirming that her ancestors for eighteen generations were pure Dragon Witches, with no Succubus Witches, Fox Witches, or anything like that. Only then did she instruct the two in front of her.
Dorothy: "..."
What the heck? Is it that exaggerated? It's like I can't be seen by anyone?
However, she no longer had time to resist, because the carriage finally arrived at the entrance of the teleportation channel.
Dorothy's expression changed drastically. She immediately skillfully took out a bag from her backpack and put it to her mouth.
Then...
"Ugh... this damn teleportation after-effect."
The beautiful girl was vomiting rainbows.
Ahead, the Witch Academy had arrived.
