Although she has freedom of movement and usually roams outside showing off her meals without needing to report to Chloe, she ultimately cannot simply disappear.
However, with Kuchiha's Rabbit Hole, coming and going is convenient.
Billie's situation is similar.
She has to stay at home obediently.
Firstly, to appease her family and Riley's emotions.
Secondly, to get Elena's help in completely pinning the bank robbery blame on Centipede and Toad.
Right now, she has to act low-key.
As a result, the mental energy Serie currently expends on her avatars is only 30%, which is very ample; she can handle a few more Witches.
Coincidentally, Serie also has a new birth chance gained after completing the 'Main Task: Witch Alliance'.
As for what abilities this new Witch should have, including herself, the five Witches have a consensus, yet each has her own little agenda.
The consensus is that the newcomer must be able to help and integrate into this 'big family' that consists of only one person.
The disagreement... is about the specific direction of help.
Zoya plans for a partner who can compensate for her shortcomings.
Although her abilities are powerful, she is too easily targeted, especially since those people from the Control Bureau always like to set traps in advance.
Kuchiha considers a friendly, emotionally stable Witch.
Billie? She just wants a pretty one...
Cough, this girl is the least reliable, but also the easiest to achieve.
Every Witch is stunningly beautiful; finding an ugly one would be somewhat difficult.
Goluthos, on the other hand, yearns for a Witch who can conjure an endless supply of food.
It sounds absurd at first, but upon closer thought, it's quite practical.
Witches' physiques are stronger than humans', and they can go a few days without food, but ultimately, they still need to eat and drink.
Several of them are either wanted criminals or undocumented, so getting food is indeed troublesome; they can't always let Billie steal, can they?
Billie wouldn't mind, though.
But that would be too degrading—they are the Witches prophesied to destroy the world! Going to a convenience store to steal bento boxes?
Anyone who didn't know would think they were a flock of seagulls snatching fries at the dock...
Besides, this ability could also fill Goluthos's bottomless stomach, making it a perfect match for her.
Looking at it this way, Goluthos and Zoya's ideas are quite reliable.
As for Serie herself...
She wants to wait a bit longer, observe for a few more days.
She wants to use this opportunity to try out that 'omniscient and omnipotent' Witch.
If she still can't summon this great deity, then...
Serie pondered, settling for the next best thing: finding a Witch who is both strong and beautiful, emotionally stable, and can produce an endless supply of food... Is that even possible?
She also had her doubts; individually, these conditions aren't difficult, but to have them all in one person...
It feels a bit uncertain.
She could only say that if it really doesn't work out, then she'll have to see where manpower is most needed and have this new Witch fill that role.
Before that, it's always right to take a gamble.
Anyway, there's no cost.
It's not too late to create a new helper when one is truly needed.
On the podium, Arabella continued, throwing out several fresh new anomaly cases to tutor these newcomers who had just joined the Bureau.
Serie listened with little interest; those anomalies were not even half as good as her Witches, until—
"Last case, the bank robbery in Australia..."
Huh?
Is that about me again?
Serie's heart skipped a beat, and her ears unconsciously twitched slightly.
