Otaku Witch
Chapter 953 - 953: 586. Tacit understanding

Dorothy: "???"

A series of question marks popped up over the homebody witch's head.

What's going on? Where did these three weird folks come from? And why is this guy holding a drumstick? I don't even have a drum here?

She turned her head to look around, very sure she was still in her Grand Inquisitor's office, and the office door was still closed, no one had just come in or out.

"Are you also judges?"

Dorothy frowned and asked.

Well, although these three strange folks weren't wearing the judges' uniforms or battle robes, they were all wearing masks, which quite fit the style of the Judgment Court, so that's why the homebody witch asked.

Moreover, this is the headquarters of the Judgment Court, one of the secret places of the Witch World, well-guarded, so those who can appear here must be judges, unless, of course, they couldn't possibly be invaders, right?

Joking aside, the Judgment Court itself has certain special agency functions, like anti-espionage and anti-invasion, and they are professionals at it. With the Judgment Court's fearsome reputation, any common folk would avoid them, who would be foolishly brave enough to invade the headquarters of the Judgment Court? Wouldn't that be like walking into a trap?

Therefore, she thought these three strange folks might be judges who sneaked into her office.

Otherwise, what else could it be? Currently, this room only has two doors, one being the main door, and the other the Gates of the Underworld. Could these three really have walked out from the Underworld?

Uh... wait...

Even though she immediately dismissed that possibility subconsciously, that peculiar inspiration instantly fished that possibility out from the trash bin of her mind.

Dorothy's gaze suddenly became sharp as she seriously examined the strange costumes of these uninvited guests, finding them somewhat familiar the more she looked.

Are you cosplaying as Yin Cha here?

You've got Ox-Head and Horse-Face ready, but where's the Black and White Impermanence? Why is there only a white one; where's the black one?

Staring at the peaceful Angel mask on the white figure, she thought.

Perhaps sensing her thoughts, Senior Hat suddenly extended a tentacle and summoned an Ice Mirror in front of the homebody witch.

"Uh, senior, what are you doing?"

Dorothy looked curiously at senior Fanny's move, not quite understanding her intention.

Moreover, she looked at the mirror, which was just an ordinary Ice Mirror, the only praise-worthy aspect being its smoothness and clarity, which vividly reflected her own black robe and crying Clown mask.

Emmm... crying Clown?

The homebody witch looked at the mask on her face. Usually, this Senior Joyful was always quite cheerful, so the Clown mask always had a dazzling smile, almost grinning to the ears, but now, the Clown was no longer smiling, instead it was teary.

Alright, it seems Senior is not in a good mood today, which is understandable, considering she just saw her own death. Even someone as lighthearted as the Senior Joyful can't laugh at a time like this.

Death is an ultimate equalizer, the greatest horror for all beings.

Believing senior Fanny was scared to tears, Dorothy touched her hat intending to comfort the frightened senior.

"Don't worry, senior. You don't need to be afraid. I will always be with you. Even death can't separate us."

She thought to herself.

Yes, death indeed can't separate them. After all, as long as senior is fine, they won't die, but if something happens to the senior, as the Future Fourth King, she wouldn't survive the ordeal that senior couldn't handle. They would go down together.

So, it wasn't wrong to say that. It's just sweet nonsense.

Senior Fanny: "....."

Senior Hat was speechless with her Master's peculiar thought process.

I gave you a mirror, wasn't my intention clear enough? To make you take a good look at yourself, gain some self-awareness, okay? What were you thinking, randomly touching me and saying such embarrassing things?

Senior Fanny was embarrassed to the point where the tip of her hat almost turned red. Though as the Future Fourth King she held a high position and wielded divine skills, in the end, she was just a 25-year-old young witch. Which young girl could resist such sweet words from Dorothy?

Of course, senior Hat was well aware of her Master's manner. She knew Dorothy's words were just literal, without any romantic undertones, but that didn't stop the senior from appreciating it. After all, who doesn't love to hear nice words from someone they care about?

Especially since Dorothy is so pretty. Nice words sound all the more pleasant coming from a good-looking person...

Just...

A slightly happy senior Fanny quickly sensed a "smiling" gaze on her, its eyes gentle yet kind, but senior Hat nearly froze in fear.

"Uh, God King Teacher, please don't misunderstand. You also know Dorothy's personality, blurting things out without thinking."

Senior Fanny seriously explained this way.

Though her exchange with Dorothy was mental, and Dorothy had already mastered the Mental Seal Curse, which shouldn't allow random mind-reading, but was The Third King just anyone?
