Otaku Witch -
Chapter 957 - 957: 588. Travel Plan
Dorothy also looked speechlessly at the piles of files in the office.
She was curious if Sophia had an unusual habit of treating work as a hobby, otherwise, why was it that almost every time she saw her, she was working?
"Aren't you tired? Still working even after death?"
After a brief moment of silence, the homebody witch asked curiously.
Sophia: "..."
The Pure White Witch was also stunned.
Alright, she was also somewhat stumped by the young lady's question. If the young lady hadn't pointed it out, she wouldn't have even realized it herself. After pondering for a moment, she was somewhat puzzled too.
"Honestly, I don't really feel tired from it, I got used to it a long time ago. Anyway, since I first arrived at the Underworld, I've been in this office. Then someone asked if I could help process some files, and since I had nothing else to do, I helped out conveniently."
Sophia answered thus.
She was long accustomed to such a busy routine and really didn't find it exhausting. On the contrary, the sense of keeping busy even made her feel quite relaxed and at ease. After all, once busy, there was no leisure time to get lost in thoughts or fears.
Though now as the God King Holy Child, she was safe and no longer needed to be constantly worried like in the past, so she didn't need work to numb or force herself any longer. Yet, habits formed over more than a decade were not so easy to change.
Besides, if she didn't work, what would she do?
Sophia recalled her daily life over the past ten years, it seemed to always be spent in a cycle of eating, studying, training, working, and sleeping. As for relaxation and play?
There truly wasn't any. When her life wasn't secure, how could she afford to waste time on that?
If one had to say, then before the young lady appeared, cooking might barely count as her hobby. But ever since living together with the young lady, the kitchen was no longer her domain.
Thus, she really didn't know how to pass the time once she had free time.
Dorothy: "..."
Upon hearing her roommate's justified response, she felt both heartache and speechlessness.
Poor child, just what kind of miserable life had she been living?
"Then I'll take you..."
Just as she was about to say she'd take Sophia to have fun in the future, the homebody witch swallowed her words again.
Because, she suddenly realized she herself hardly went out to play. Her past lifestyle was quite comparable to Sophia's, perhaps even more severe.
At least Sophia still frequently went out, whereas she rarely even left her room.
Her life revolved around five things — eating, studying, training, surfing the internet, and sleeping.
Hmm, as a homebody, she didn't need any other hobbies. Just give her some Magic Network signal; everything is online anyway.
"How about you two go on a trip together then."
A voice suddenly interjected between the two, saying this.
Uh...
They turned back and saw Denisha wearing her smiling angel mask.
Miss Shepherdess was clapping her hands, seemingly quite agreeable to the idea.
Only, both Dorothy and Sophia exchanged glances and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
Especially the Pure White Witch.
Sophia looked at the witch who'd just suddenly chimed in and recognized her as the Underworld staff member who had asked her for help processing files not long ago.
Even though this mysterious Miss Witch always claimed to be just an ordinary civil servant in the Underworld, the Pure White Witch wasn't foolish enough to believe her nonsense.
After all, what kind of ordinary civil servant could have such a luxurious and spacious office? It's important to know this was the Holy Palace—the very center of power in the entire Underworld.
Moreover, none of the files she had just processed were ordinary; each one concerned the operation of the entire Underworld. Even with Sophia's years of experience as Student Council President, her nerves were taut when handling those files, fearing a mistake could throw the Underworld into chaos.
For these reasons alone, this mysterious civil servant was definitely not a simple character. She could very well be the manager or even the ruler of the Underworld world.
Sophia leaned towards the latter because it was well known that the ruler of the Underworld was Lord God King himself, and the Underworld System was built at his direction.
Only Lord God King would dare and have the authority to frivolously entrust the management rights over the Underworld temporarily to a "mystery" witch to help as an agent.
If it were any other truly ordinary Underworld civil servant, who would dare be so negligent?
Ultimately, Sophia felt that Lord God King must truly be brave because otherwise, why commit such an outrageous act—it was agency rights to the Underworld System! Such power shouldn't be randomly entrusted to a bystander; even if someone had to be found to act, it should be to someone trustworthy.
Could it be because Lord God King has great trust in me?
Sophia sarcastically thought, but then she suddenly fell silent.
She thought of her another past life, as the once true God King Holy Child.
Hmm, if you follow that relationship, perhaps she should address this mysterious Miss Witch as Mother Superior.
