Chapter 1296: Chapter 726: Night City (Part 2)
But…..
Dorothy glanced annoyedly at Ruthfiel beside her; it was all because of this troublesome woman’s antics that she fell asleep in the hot spring pool and didn’t wake up till dawn, completely forgetting about the report she needed to submit.
[Fairy of the Forest: Juvenile Dragon Landing.jpg]
[Fairy of the Forest: Mother Superior, I fully realize my mistake.]
The homebody witch quickly reflected and apologized.
[Euphilia: Great Dragon Snort.jpg]
[Euphilia: Two brand-new full-fleet photos.jpg]
[Euphilia: This is my recently expanded two fleets, 49 and a half years later there will be consequences, Great Dragon Drawing Sword.jpg]
Mother Dragon’s response immediately put tremendous pressure on Dorothy, as she looked at the two brand-new, high-spirited full fleets in the photo sent by Mother Superior, then thought about her own Japan, which was in disarray.
This fight is futile.
[Fairy of the Forest: Juvenile Dragon Tearful Eyes.jpg]
[Fairy of the Forest: Drawing the sword, actually, I brought an authentic Japanese specialty gift for you, Mother Superior.]

[Fairy of the Forest: Katana Image.jpg]
Dorothy used her skill of bribing, ahem, filial piety.
She did bring back a gift for Mother Superior, two katanas personally forged by Miss Oiran.
While not Demon Sword Princess, they are indeed finely crafted Alchemical Arms.
To this, Mother Dragon tried to resist, deploying her toughness skill, but the daughter’s filial (bribing) heart carried true damage, ignoring defenses, and Mother Dragon got sunk.
[Euphilia: Fine, I’ll forgive you this time.]
[Euphilia: Go ahead, take a good break, Venus City’s quite safe.]
[Euphilia: But if you bail tonight…]
[Euphilia: Great Dragon Smile.jpg]
Dorothy: “…”
The homebody witch looked at the picture of the dragon baring all its sharp teeth in a smile, did she feel touched?
Dare not.
[Fairy of the Forest: This time for sure, this time for sure.]
After calming down Mother Superior, the homebody witch let out a long sigh of relief.
But aside from Mother Superior, there’s Father and Stepmother too.
[Fairy of the Forest: Dad, I won’t be coming back this holiday, I’ve planned a trip with classmates, also I sent something home, please make sure to sign for it, it’s authentic Immortal Tea, remember to drink more.]
Of course, Dorothy also brought a gift for Adam, tea plucked from the Amaterasu Shrine, planted by Miss Divine Witch herself a millennium ago, truly genuine Immortal Tea, long-term drinking can prolong life.
Adam has always been a stubborn bull, refusing Stepmother Superior’s First Embrace, to become an immortal vampire, and he hardly takes any life-extending Magic Potion, living his life with the intent of a peaceful human life.
Yet, the homebody witch had already swept the graves for this dear father during Witch’s Night and didn’t wish for a repeat soon.
For a witch whose life starts at a millennium, a human century is really too brief.
So, let’s see how old father rejects this daughterly care packaged as health supplements.
This was also an instant reply.
[Ordinary Human: Uh, Alice said you went with your mentor for an internship out of town, it’s over?]
[Ordinary Human: But don’t send the parcel home, we are not there at the moment, visiting Annie’s family.]
[Ordinary Human: Address link]
[Ordinary Human: Send the parcel to this address.]
[Ordinary Human: By the way, do you have enough money on you? Don’t be too thrifty since you’re hanging out with friends, Annie just sent me some pocket money, I’ll transfer you some, I don’t need that much anyway.]
[Ordinary Human: Transfer 1,000,000 Gold Coins]
Dorothy: “…..”
Damn it, Dad, just how much pocket money does Stepmother Superior give you each month? Frustrated, shaking with cold.
The homebody witch recalled how she used to get only a thousand bucks monthly, then looking at Father’s casual million transfer like it’s nothing, she couldn’t help but look up at the sky, tears streaming down.
But this is Witch World, after all, isn’t it?
Witches are to be raised simply, men to be raised lavishly, that’s societal consensus.
If a little witch has too much money, she might lose her drive, while men, especially handsome men, without some money, might easily be misled by mischievous witches on the road.
Once, Dorothy didn’t quite believe this, dismissing it as something to trick kids, but one day accompanying Adam grocery shopping and witnessing the flirty attentions from witch aunties in the market firsthand, she came to believe it.
Those aunties’ gaze at Adam seemed eager enough to practically eat him on the spot; Dorothy’s gaze when spotting a pretty lady isn’t half as heated.
Sigh, they say thirty like a wolf, forty like a tiger, then what about witches several hundred years old?
It’s better not to ponder this too intensely.
In short, handsome men truly need to protect themselves well; don’t overestimate the principles of those single witches of age, they indeed take no issue with either raw or cooked, gender or race.
But Dorothy wasn’t in such dire straits as to need to spend her father’s “body-money.”
[Fairy of the Forest: No need, I still have enough money, recently made a lot.]
[Fairy of the Forest: I’ll send it to this new addres…..]
The homebody witch took a peek at the new address, then suddenly widened her eyes.
Gosh, Venus City.
“Madeline Senior, are there vampires in Venus City?”
Dorothy looked up at the Succubus Witch beside her and asked.
She only knew Venus City as a city of art, also a City of Demons, but had no idea the Vampire Clan’s headquarters were also here; however thinking it over, it makes sense, these blood clan members, claiming to be ancient nobles, do love art.
“Vampires? Of course there are. Young Lady, have you forgotten the City of Sin during Witch’s Night?”
Madeline was taken aback and stated as such.
“Uh, the City of Sin?”
Dorothy recalled the City of Wicked where her stepmother is the city lord, then inspiration struck her.
“Could it be?”
“Yes, that’s right, Venus City’s predecessor was that ancient City of Sin; after Witch’s Night ended, I specially researched it and found the connection between them.”
“During the Era of the God King, the City of Sin was a gathering place for vampires, later after the God King Lord incorporated the City of Sin, the Primogenitor Lilith led the Thirteen Clans to join under the God King and were bestowed with the bloodline of the primeval witch, becoming the first Vampire Clan Witches, and that City of Sin was renamed as the Night City.”
“During the Era of the God King and the Dragon King Era, the Demon Witches were always a minority, but this changed once the Lord Demon King rose, as Demon Witches became one of the Three Great Royal Families. The Demon King ensured harmony between the Demon Witches and other witch clans, then renamed night city to become the modern city of arts, Venus.”
Madeline explained this way.
Even though now Venus City is open to everyone and no longer predominantly a Demon Witch gathering place, the heiresses of the Thirteen Vampire Clans constantly hold sway over much of the city’s industries, Young Lady, you’re not planning on taking on the vampire clan, are you? That wouldn’t be wise.
Even though our family holds a significant status in Venus City, you have to understand that the Demon Clan can’t overpower the local authorities, and despite our family being of the Devil King’s bloodline, we are nevertheless an external presence.
Dorothy: “…..”
…..In complex feelings, the homebody witch…
