Chapter 1300: Chapter 728: The Shattered Magic Mirror
Venus City.
“Magic mirror, magic mirror, tell me, who is the most beautiful witch in Night City?”
In an opulent, lavishly decorated room, a breathtakingly beautiful woman was sitting at a vanity, applying makeup and questioning her reflection in the mirror.
“Of course, it’s the great Lord Demon King.”
The reflection in the mirror responded without hesitation.
This answer made the beauty in front of the mirror roll her eyes.
“Stop stating the obvious. I’m asking who’s the most beautiful except for Lord Demon King.”
The beauty, with disgruntlement, clarified her question.
“Then of course, it’s Her Royal Highness of Venus City, Miss Audrey.”
The phantom in the mirror replied again.
“That Little Princess isn’t in the city now, Miss Magic Mirror, I’m giving you one last chance to refine your answer.”
The woman in front of the mirror furrowed her delicate brow. What woman could tolerate hearing every day that someone else is more beautiful?
Even if it’s true, nothing hurts more than this truth.
So, she paused her makeup application, pulled out a heavy iron hammer from under the vanity table, and placed it in front of the mirror.
Her gaze was calm as she looked at the mirror, while the reflection’s forehead broke out in cold sweat.
“Miss Cassandra, you know I’m an honest magic mirror, so…..”
“So I think you should be a smart magic mirror.”
The beauty smiled at the reflection, breaking off the mirror’s rambling, speaking plainly.
“This is a threat. I warn you, I am the best replica of the great Conscience Devil’s Mirror, a relic, an artwork. Any damage to me is irrevocable in another world…..”
“I’m asking you again, magic mirror, magic mirror, who is the most beautiful woman in Night City besides Lord Demon King.”
She interrupted the mirror’s chatter, already grasping the hammer handle.
Hence, the reflection’s expression visibly panicked, its coldly alluring face showing a flattering smile that didn’t suit it.
“Of course, it’s the next City Lord of Venus City, a rising star in the city of art, the Goddess of love and beauty, a new generation Wolf King, Ca….”
The beauty finally showed a happy smile.
Never mind about the question of whether a forcibly picked fruit is sweet or not, having something to eat is better than nothing.
However, her smile quickly froze.
Because the mirror’s flattering smile suddenly stiffened, then turned into an expression of zealotry.
“Miss Dorothy, the most beautiful witch in Night City is Miss Dorothy, no, in all Witch World, no, in the Western Universe, no, no, in the whole world…..”
“Praise the great God above Gods, praise the greatest magic, praise the great dragon…..”
Crack….
In Cassandra’s bewildered gaze, the mirror in front of her made a cracking sound, shattered into countless fragments.
The beauty holding the iron hammer was suddenly at a loss.
What, I haven’t even hammered it yet, and you’re already shattered.
Moreover, the mirror’s words just now baffled her.
Who is this Dorothy, moreover, what is that God above Gods, Mentor of the Demon King, is the mirror crazy for uttering such profanity.
Miss Cassandra began to reflect whether she had been too harsh on the magic mirror, pushing the Mirror Spirit to madness.
But speaking of which, the name Dorothy sounds familiar.
Cassandra began to ponder, though it’s a common name in Witch World; you shout Dorothy in the street, probably several witches would turn around.
So, feeling it’s familiar seems quite normal.
But before she could reminisce, a knock at the door interrupted her thoughts.
“Miss, the Madam requests your presence.”
It was the voice of her exclusive maid.
“Mother Superior is looking for me? Okay, I’ll go immediately.”
Cassandra agreed quickly.
She waved her hand to gather the broken mirror pieces, planning to consult a familiar alchemist later to see if it can be salvaged since the magic mirror is indeed a family heirloom treasure. If her mother discovered she had broken it, she would certainly not escape a scolding.
But she really wasn’t to blame, she merely threatened it, hadn’t really intended to use the hammer, it’s the mirror that inexplicably shattered.
Cassandra felt she was innocent.
She put the remains of the magic mirror in her pocket, then stood up, walked to the door, and opened it.
“Rosanne, do you know why Mother is looking for me?”
Cassandra somewhat guiltily looked down to inquire from her specialized maid.
Would it be Mother Superior already knew she’d damaged the mirror?
The Maid Miss Rosanne, with dog ears on her head, also looked up at her master.
Her height wasn’t short, about one meter seventy-five, after all, she’s a large dog-witch, but even so, she looked a bit cute and petite in front of her master.
