Otaku Witch

Chapter 2007 - 1018: I’m Afraid Lady Witch Will Misunderstand_2

The homebody witch thought to herself, feeling a bit touched.

Having received comfort from her apprentice, Noelle Rose’s anxious heart finally eased a little, but she still wanted to confirm one more time.

"But that’s the Witch of the Forest, Dorothy, you’re not tempted at all? She’s way more powerful than me. If she really wanted to take you as her apprentice, wouldn’t you be tempted?"

"Of course not, because I already have the best teacher in the world. Would you, teacher, leave me if you found an apprentice with better qualifications?"

Dorothy patiently countered.

However...

"..."

The sudden silence was palpable.

"Teacher, why are you not saying anything?"

The homebody witch’s previously touched expression gradually became emotionless as she asked.

At this moment, Noelle Rose, still holding onto her apprentice, turned her head guiltily.

"Well, Dorothy, I don’t want to lie to you."

She mumbled softly.

Dorothy: "...."

She silently pulled down the hat on her head, covering her face with it, while the senior sister laughed wildly and transformed into a clown mask.

The clown truly represented herself.

"Look, Dorothy, I didn’t want this either, but a more talented apprentice is irresistible, you know."

Seeing her beloved apprentice’s reaction, Noelle Rose explained even more guiltily.

Indeed, she didn’t want it either, but the scenario of having an apprentice with even more terrifying talent was too tempting to resist. Would such a talent not give hope of catching up to the Witch of the Forest?

The Spider Witch asked herself sincerely, realizing that if faced with such a choice, she would find it hard to refuse.

However, she wouldn’t actually abandon Dorothy, because taking apprentices isn’t like getting married. Who says an apprentice can only be one? Plus, these days people have more than one spouse, right?

"Mm-hmm, don’t worry, even if there’s a new apprentice, I’d never abandon you. Dorothy, you will always be my beloved apprentice."

As a mature witch, Noelle Rose naturally chose to have it all.

But...

"Miss Noelle Rose, you no longer have an apprentice. Let’s not contact each other anymore, I’m worried the Lady Witch might misunderstand."

Dorothy said coldly and angrily.

Of course, this was only a joke.

But she was also speechless at her shameless teacher; craving only talent and not true affection.

It’s said that in academic circles, some high-empathy witches are sapiosexuals, and it seems Spider Teacher is similar, just with higher standards, needing both intelligence and talent.

"Boo-hoo, don’t, Dorothy, you have to understand me, such talent is something I truly can’t resist."

"Rest assured, I would never turn my back on you. I will always be consistent in my care for you."

...

Knowing she was in the wrong, Spider Teacher hugged her apprentice more tightly, spewing sweet-talking but unreliable promises.

Dorothy: "..."

Come on, teacher, why are you so adept at this? How many people have you said this to?

"Let go of me; you can’t even satisfy one, let alone two. How can I believe you? You deceitful teacher!"

Well, the situation has successfully flipped; now I’m on the moral high ground, skimming past the Witch of the Forest issue.

The homebody witch secretly rejoiced in her heart.

Initially worried about confronting Spider Teacher, but now it’s the teacher who changes heart first.

But, how can a teacher tolerate hearing "you’re inadequate," at least Noelle Rose couldn’t stand it one bit.

"Who says I can’t satisfy you? Dorothy, I have to let you know your teacher’s prowess. Watch closely; this one’s big and thick, brace yourself."

To prove herself, Spider Witch reached into her pocket, pulling out a Magic Book from the storage world shared by all incarnations.

This was a High-Level Magic Book with nearly infinite pages, showing that this time Noelle Rose truly stood firm.

And it was her "elite course material" compiled during her recent retreat.

Even if this wasn’t enough, she could strive to complete the subsequent "professional course material" and "master course material" soon.

After all, in front of her beloved apprentice, failure is not an option for a teacher.

However, just as she pulled out the material, the Magic Book vanished from her hand the next second.

Noelle Rose: "???"

Where’s my book? Where’s my material? Where did my big, thick material go?

Spider Witch was genuinely baffled.

After all, this puppet incarnation was quite aged, a century-old relic, only at the elite sorceress level from when she graduated from Witch Academy.

And it’s tailored for academic research, maxing out precision, but with average power.

Thus, she truly didn’t see how her material disappeared from her hands.

Luckily, she quickly found the material again.

In her delightful apprentice’s hands.

"Uh, Dorothy, your power..."
