Otaku Witch

Dorothy looked curiously at the distinctive teacher in front of her, quite interested in the evolution template of the Eight-eyed Witch.

Awesome, it's Spider Mother! This is cool; this is thrilling.

She even cheered silently in her heart.

Even among witches, those who dared to use a demon as an evolution template were absolutely ruthless, since strength and character always influenced each other.

Witches could gain the race template bonuses of other races through evolution, but during this process, they invariably faced the influence of that power, which could cause a certain shift in the witch's personality.

For example, Angel Witches were mostly quite aloof, Dragon Witches naturally loved to fight, and Demon Witches generally had pretty bad characters, unruly, disobedient, and all of them pretty chaotic.

This influence wasn't that severe, and as a witch's strength increased, this influence would gradually weaken. Upon reaching the level of a Great Witch, one could almost become completely immune.

However, considering the heritability of a witch's talents, those young witches whose values and personalities had not yet fully formed were still very susceptible to the influence of their inherited talents.

This was also why Witch World took education so seriously. Witch Academy taught these young witches not only how to better use their powers but also how to counteract the instinctive impulses brought about by these powers.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The more powerful the racial template, the stronger the adverse influence on the witch. Therefore, witches who used templates from the Three Great Calamity Races were often troubled children.

Among them, Angels and Great Dragons were actually a bit better.

At most, Angel Witches just looked down on others, always acting superior, which made them easy to alienate and hard to befriend.

Dragon Witches were even easier to manage. These dragon whelps just had too much energy. Letting them vent out their energy in the Duel Arena would keep them calm.

But Demon Witches...

The power of a demon comes from desire, from chaos.

Demon Witches who inherited demon powers also tended to indulge in desires and stir up chaos. They often did whatever they wanted, and once they got carried away, they didn't care about anything else but their own happiness. They could be described as troublemakers among troublemakers, with alarming destructiveness.

Thus, Witch Society has always been somewhat wary of Demon Witches. The personalities of these witches could easily become extreme. During the era when the Divine King and the Dragon King ruled, there was even consideration of banning witches from using demons as evolution templates.

Fortunately, the current Witch King is the Devil King. As the most powerful Demon Witch, the Devil King profoundly demonstrated the saying "fight fire with fire." She used the strictly hierarchical nature of demon society to issue the Demon King's Codex with her highest authority, putting a protective restraint on the necks of reckless Demon Witches, significantly reducing their harmfulness.

Nevertheless, due to past prejudices, most witches still fear Demon Witches, fearing that these powerful beings might lose control and go mad again. This is also why those delinquent students ran away as soon as the Spider Witch teacher revealed her identity.

Nowadays, the vast majority of Demon Witches live clustered in the private Witch Territories of the Devil King. In the outside world, wild Demon Witches are quite rare indeed.

However, Dorothy is quite unbiased towards Demon Witches. This is not because of her unique XP, but because she grew up living with Demon Witches.

Her stepmother, Annie, and her sister, Alice, are both typical Demon Witches, with evolution templates from the Vampire Clan.

Honestly, when Dorothy first met her sister Alice as a child, the then three- or four-year-old Little Lolita was a gloomy troublemaker, but now isn't she trained to be quite sunny and positive? Enjoy exclusive chapters from empire

This shows that Demon Witches aren't as terrifying and scary as the legends say.

This Spider Witch teacher could only scare those who didn't know much about Demon Witches. For Dorothy, this was completely ineffective; she was determined about this profession today.

"Teacher, please start the test. I'm ready," she said.

Watching the Spider Teacher who had instead been frightened by her, Dorothy once again spoke up to make her request.

...the little witch awaited eagerly...

"Oh oh..."

Noelle Rose was, on the contrary, overwhelmed by the unconventional approach of the little witch.

She began to doubt whether it was because she hadn't been to the battlefield for too long, spending her days in the academy on scientific research, that her deterrent power was insufficient; otherwise, how could she now fail to even scare a little witch?

However, it was good, very spirited, since this little one had such courage, she might as well let her try.

After closing her eyes, the Arachne Witch, who still looked like a gentle big sister, showed a very kind smile, deciding to reward this very brave little one with an unforgettable exam.

Heh, as she had said before, her department wasn't the kind where just any rubbish could get in.

In fact, the specialty was not deserted because nobody wanted to apply; on the contrary, there were quite a number of students applying every year, but very few could actually pass the assessment.

Automated Mechanical Civil Engineering, as the name suggests, is a composite field, a new discipline born from the amalgamation of mechanical and architectural engineering.

And those were just the two broad categories. If further subdivided, automation involves like soul studies, mechanical engineering, puppetry techniques, alchemy, etc., while civil engineering involves evocation series, transformation series, spell studies, mathematics, structural mechanics, etc.

In summary, this specialty is actually not suitable for these newly admitted little witches; it demands a high knowledge base, talent, and even artistic sensitivity, making the entry threshold extremely high.

In fact, when she initially decided to offer this specialty, she hadn't planned on recruiting externally but only did so to conveniently request funds from the school. However, the school's regulations required all specialties to recruit externally, hence she reluctantly created this recruitment assessment.

As for the difficulty of the assessment, it was naturally set to the exam's difficulty limit.

Well, all she did was pick a few questions from each discipline involved in Automated Mechanical Civil Engineering and stuffed them all into a single exam paper.

The difficulty of these questions wasn't high on their own, being within the reach of little witches in theory, but because they covered many areas, it was virtually impossible for any little witch to answer the entire paper completely.

(It was like picking a few questions from full academic subjects like language, mathematics, foreign languages, politics, history, physics, chemistry, etc., and keeping all the difficulty levels at the level of the final challenging problems on a mathematics exam.)

Indeed, this way, even the school's review committee couldn't fault her, since, theoretically, the exam was passable for little witches; her inability to recruit students wasn't due to her laziness but because this batch of students was really not up to par.

After doing this for several years, her specialty naturally led all students to know its difficulty and step back, and now, very few brave souls dared to challenge her hellish exam.

However, this year her beloved little niece had come over, whose talent and abilities she was well aware of, barely meeting the entry requirements for this specialty. Therefore, her department could finally commence.

This way, she could also finally have an explanation for the increasing impatience of the student union and the school committee regarding her getting paid for not working.

That's why she had so bluntly scared off those students just now. She was already too lazy to waste time, as with her niece Audrey guaranteed, she had met her quota for the year.

But since this very young witch had such courage and wore such flamboyant makeup, looking smooth and sleek, clearly not a good student type, let her try my hellish question paper.

"Then come in, and we'll see if you can still be so courageous after you see the exam paper,"

The Spider Witch said with a smile as she opened the door behind her, her eyes narrowed in a chuckle.
