They held each other's hands.
One who wants you to ascend to the starry sky above the strange bell wife Si Wujiu jiuVIII
One wants the other to stay.
They continued to rotate and gaze at each other.
The outcome is still uncertain!
Hmm~
I've arrived in this world!
In your eyes, you see the entire starry sky.
Please look forward to the next volume, "This World".
P.S.: Well, I'm so glad the author is still continuing this story. After all, I've thought about giving up many times. I remember once when I saw that I was really into it, my heart sank because there were only 3 people in the story!
Whew, I pat my chest, but I can't laugh.
However, this is indeed the author's own problem. The first volume has a slow pace, somewhat repetitive emotional descriptions, and many other shortcomings, so thank you all for your understanding!
I will try my best to improve. As a new author, I would appreciate your guidance.
Finally, I hope everyone is satisfied with this story. As long as there is even one person reading it, I will finish writing it. However, if you, dear reader, are truly dissatisfied with the story, please leave a comment so that I, the author, have a chance to make amends.
Wiping away tears, she bowed in gratitude.
Chapter 99 A New Day
At dawn, dew still clung to the tips of leaves, while the sun in the imagined land had already cast its light, announcing the arrival of a new day.
Although witches do not need to sleep for long periods of time, nor are they blinded by darkness.
But they still enjoy basking in the sunlight, which is a kind of romance for them.
Jiang Kehan pushed open the room door and stretched.
She was wearing a light pink nightgown, her face still showing signs of sleepiness. She scratched her messy hair, looking around the living room with a bit of morning grumpiness.
Hey, sure enough, Li Hui heated up a cup of milk for me. It's so wonderful to be able to drink something warm in the morning.
Jiang Kehan ran to the coffee table, picked up the hot milk with both hands, took a sip, and a happy smile spread across her face.
Phew, living with Li Hui was definitely the best decision I made last year, even though our relationship is still the same.
Li Hui is a homebody who often stays at home, but she is busy with her own things. In addition, Jiang Kehan has been under a lot more pressure this semester, so nothing particularly exciting has happened.
Thinking about it, there's still a little regret... Jiang Kehan finished her milk, wiped the traces left on the corner of her mouth, and glanced at Li Hui's room.
The other party never lets me in; I don't know what secrets they hold.
One day, she'll have to get Li Hui to personally invite her in, otherwise she'll be a dog if she goes in!
Sighing, Jiang Kehan suppressed the urge to peek, magically cleaned the water glass, and put it back on the bookshelf in the living room.
Both her and Li Hui's cups were milky white with no patterns. The only difference was that their names were crookedly written on the handles.
Actually, only Li Hui's name was crooked. It was Jiang Kehan's idea for the two of them to carve each other's names. She even clung to Li Hui and acted coquettishly for a long time because of it.
However, it is obvious that Jiang Kehan's carving skills are almost non-existent. Compared to the exquisite "Jiang Kehan" written by Li Hui, what she carved was just dog scratch.
It's fortunate that Li Hui has kept this cup so carefully with a smile. Jiang Kehan herself even wanted to smash it and make a new one for Li Hui.
Jiang Kehan shyly turned her face away, deciding to pretend she hadn't seen it!
She coughed twice and, seeing no movement from Li Hui's room, knew that Li Hui had already left, so she simply changed her clothes in the living room.
Jiang Kehan's financial crisis has improved considerably. The "salary" from her third seat in the academy this year, along with the booming sales of self-reading potions, have finally allowed her wallet to maintain around 1000 witch gold coins.
Yes, with increased income, expenses have also increased exponentially.
Not only does learning new spells require a large expenditure, but the further you progress in alchemy studies, the more money you need, in addition to regular maintenance and other expenses.
Yes, witches can enhance their control over magic through external care, but it requires long-term maintenance to see noticeable results.
Jiang Kehan is quite willing to spend money to make up for her shortcomings in dueling.
Therefore, she was able to buy new clothes on her own. The sale of self-reading potions brought her a lot of social interaction, and her daily clothing expenses also increased significantly.
Today she needed to go to the capital on business, so she chose a jet-black witch's robe and a witch's hat with red trim on the inside, trying to appear as ordinary as possible.
What Jiang Kehan is about to do is not a proper thing.
The pajamas were like an unwrapped gift box, revealing the delicate skin underneath. Jiang Kehan didn't have the habit of wearing stockings, so she took off her socks and couldn't help but wiggle her toes, curving them slightly.
Then, as the slightly bouncy headlights swayed up and down, Jiang Kehan put on special short socks suitable for long walks, along with clothes, and changed into tall shoes.
"Phew, all ready, let's go!"
Jiang Kehan stretched out her body and took out her staff from her personal space.
This is a wooden staff. In almost a year, her magic power has increased to nearly 2000, and she is only 16 years old this year, far from the first stage of puberty.
Therefore, the short staff and crossbow she used to use were discarded and kept in her personal space as souvenirs.
However, the growth rate of magic power has slowed down recently. Jiang Kehan estimates that it will not return to its original growth rate until she officially enters puberty.
"Unfortunately, even with such a high magical advantage, he still couldn't defeat Li Hui."
Jiang Kehan couldn't help but puff out her cheeks and feel heartbroken when she thought about her several duels with Li Hui.
"How can someone not act at all? This level of intensity is inhuman; they should be on par with cheaters."
Although she also opened one, it's as if she didn't open one at all because she couldn't compete with others, which is perfectly reasonable.
Jiang Kehan pushed open the door, carrying a long cane. The floating island they shared was over 200 square meters in size, with an open space around the house, suitable as a place to take off.
She stepped on the green grass, raised her long staff, and sang softly.
"The wings of the sky fall into my hands, the ground rejects me, I fly in this world."
Origin Spell: Wings of the Heavens.
Having acquired magic power comparable to that of a witch, Jiang Kehan no longer needed to fly with her witch's broom; magic became a better option.
Slightly flesh-colored white feathers gathered into wings, pulling Jiang Kehan down from the ground. As the incantation said, after using this spell, a repulsive force would come from the ground.
She controlled her wings with her mind and flew towards the Witch Tower.
The Witch Tower is located in the center of Pingjiang City, surrounded by several scattered floating platforms, where many alien soldiers are on guard, constantly on alert for any possible accidents.
Yes, they are actually maintenance workers.
Although the Witch Tower is a magical creation, it incorporates many technological components. For example, the signal source for the terminal is the base station at the top of the Witch Tower.
These technologies don't need witches to maintain them; the witch reserves and other alien races are enough.
They could even provide them with jobs, creating a win-win situation—the witches would win twice, since they needed to train these alien races anyway.
Jiang Kehan landed smoothly on the huge balcony specially left out by the Witch Tower and dispelled the spell.
The Witch Tower is very large, but due to the combined effects of spatial magic and some spells whose principles Jiang Kehan does not yet understand, the actual volume she comes into contact with is not exaggerated.
It's about the size of a park.
"Is this Miss Jiang who made an appointment?" A somewhat expressionless virtual creature floated out from the circuit outside the Witch Tower. It was an elf, an elf who had not become a witch.
"Hmm." Jiang Kehan placed her hand on the electronic screen the other person was holding up. As the magic was verified, she asked, "How much longer until it's my turn to be teleported down?"
The Witch Tower's teleportation to the Earth Capital is done in batches. Unless it's an official or someone from the Witch Organization, even the Great Witch has to wait.
However, Jiang Kehan was lucky. The elf put the electronic screen into its head, and then, by focusing its mind, the screen displayed the batch that Jiang Kehan had booked.
"Please be on time, Ms. Jiang, in just 10 minutes." After she finished speaking, she floated back into the circuit.
For elves, creatures that depend on energy for existence, circuits are their home.
Jiang Kehan watched the other person leave helplessly, and couldn't help but complain in her heart.
"Nine out of ten elves are strange, and the last one is especially strange. One day I will study their brains properly. Oh no, it seems they don't have brains."
Jiang Kehan shrugged, smiled, and walked into the Witch Tower, waiting for the teleportation.
P.S.: Dear readers, please take care of your health. There's a flu outbreak going around, and I've already caught it.
Chapter 100 Illegal Business
The Witch Tower's teleportation can take you directly to the city center. Jiang Kehan pushed open the door of the space pavilion and stepped out.
To prevent overcrowding, the space pavilion is actually a composite of multiple different dimensional spaces, so sometimes you can see hundreds of witches walking out of something the size of a telephone booth.
Jiang Kehan glanced at the message on the terminal and headed towards a location away from the city center.
The architecture of the city is similar to that of Cyber City, but more classical.
The streets were wide, but they were all for walking or riding in floating pavilions; there were no vehicles or brooms.
While some of the surrounding houses were decorated with neon lights, emitting various colors, the main structures were made of black or bluish metal, without windows.
Walking down the street, there was no hustle and bustle. Jiang Kehan hailed a floating pavilion and sat down with practiced ease.
"To Nottelle Street." She tossed a witch's gold coin to the somewhat immature little pony and pressed down her hat as she spoke.
Although the Witch Organization has already paid for the witch's ride in the floating pavilion, giving a small tip to the cute little pony girl will still make her quite happy.
"Okay, please sit down, we're about to set off!" Little Horse Mom took a carrot out of her pocket, put it in her mouth, and then started walking on the treadmill.
Yes, the floating pavilion belonging to the horse girl is powered by this treadmill, after all, not every race has the talent of the Puppet Clan.
With the tip, Little Horse Girl ran much more diligently, delivering Jiang Kehan to Notter Street before she even finished a carrot.
"Not bad." Jiang Kehan jumped down from the floating pavilion, nodded to the little horse girl, and said in a tone full of praise, "You are the most hardworking horse girl I have ever seen. I wish you will become a witch soon."
Putting everything else aside, Jiang Kehan's social skills have improved considerably over the past year. She can now speak in a way that is half true and half false, in accordance with the witch's personality, to appease people of other races.
In witch culture, lying to other races is not called lying; it is called accommodating the other party's stupidity.
After all, not all races can see things from the perspective of a witch looking down on everything. In this case, a well-placed lie can lubricate the relationship between the two.
Well, actually, Jiang Kehan went astray and gradually figured out the logic behind why witches don't treat other races as human beings.
Little Ma blushed slightly at the wicked woman's casual praise. She pulled out a carrot from behind her back and handed it to Jiang Kehan, speaking in a soft, sweet voice.
"Thank you! This is just a small token of my appreciation, please accept it."
With a faint smile, Jiang Kehan accepted the carrot, and mumbled indistinctly with it in her mouth, "I look forward to our next meeting. Please excuse me for now."
