The Witch's Imaginary Land: Redemption Comes After Sticking Together

Page 44

"Oh, oh! Okay."

Jiang Kehan ​​jolted awake and hurriedly entered her magic power into the terminal interface. Looking at the witch points transferred to her account, she was still a little confused.

She genuinely hadn't expected the reward to be like this, and hadn't even considered how she would use it after receiving it.

Thinking of this, she regained her senses and decided to ask Gu Lingfeng the question she had originally intended to ask.

"By the way, Miss Lingfeng, do you have any suggestions on how to use the points? You should know my situation. Although I want to become a Duel Witch, my spell list is missing too many spells."

Upon hearing this, Gu Lingfeng couldn't help but twirl a strand of his hair between his fingers, lost in thought.

"Kehan, have you tested your affinity with the major schools of magic?"

Seeing Jiang Kehan ​​shake her head, Gu Lingfeng turned around and took a small crystal ball from the bookshelf, placing it in front of Jiang Kehan.

"Alright, let me do a simple test for you first, and then I'll recommend some spells."

"Okay." Jiang Kehan ​​nodded vigorously, looking at the crystal ball with a mixture of excitement and trepidation.

She possesses astonishing magical potential, but if she lacks a wide range of compatible magical schools, it will be difficult for her to become a qualified dueling witch.

"Place your hand on the crystal ball, and do not use any magic."

Gu Lingfeng gave instructions, then took out his staff and cast a spell on the crystal ball.

The crystal ball is just a crystal ball; the official method for testing spell affinity is used.

Jiang Kehan ​​took a few deep breaths, as if she had returned to the day she checked her college entrance examination results. However, the good news was that her magical properties destined her to achieve great things in the future, which was equivalent to being admitted to university without taking the entrance exam.

When she placed her hand on the crystal ball, fragments suddenly appeared before her eyes, each fragment like a version of herself, experiencing a unique past on a different timeline.

She unconsciously became immersed in it, and gradually gained insights.

The factions that suit you best, in order of preference, are "Origin", "Prayer", and "Origin".

The Su Zhu faction is one that Jiang Kehan ​​has never had any contact with before, but she has a deep impression of this faction.

The philosophy of this faction is: "Blessings and curses are separated by only a thin line. When the user's intentions change, the most beautiful blessing can become the most vicious curse."

It is a school of magic that is unpredictable.

Gu Lingfeng put away his staff, looking at Jiang Kehan ​​with some difficulty, as if he had seen an oddball.

"Hiss, with these three factions, I can't really say which direction Kehan ​​should develop in. She's a bit too versatile."

I don't know if you have any direction in mind.

Jiang Kehan ​​felt the weight of her own decision and looked up at Gu Lingfeng intently.

"I want to be a turret and a support."

Gu Lingfeng seemed to see the shadow of his friend in Jiang Kehan.

This determination and resolve, along with your thirst for victory—perhaps this path is truly right for you, Kehan.

She skillfully operated her terminal, clearly selecting several spells and sending them to Jiang Kehan.

"These are essential spells for dueling witches and can be purchased with witch gold. As for the points you have, I recommend you take a look at these three arcane spells."

Jiang Kehan ​​looked at the demonstration on the terminal and murmured the names of the three spells: "Level 2 Rare Spell - Tide; Level 3 Spell - Spatial Anchor; Level 4 Spell - Earth Tremor".

"Okay, I'll take these three!"

Without hesitation, she spent all the points in her account, then smiled and said goodbye to Gu Lingfeng.

"Miss Lingfeng's recommendation has been a great help to me. I look forward to our next meeting."

Gu Lingfeng chuckled.

"I'm also looking forward to seeing a rising star in dueling. You can just call me Ling Feng."

She thought highly of this witch with a fiery spirit inside, and even couldn't help but mention it to her friend.

Chapter 69 Ariel: No, why do you have Li Hui as a friend?!

When Jiang Kehan ​​came out, she saw that Ai Lier was already carrying two drinks. There was a small pebble at her feet. Ai Lier aimed at a place where no one was around and kicked it hard. The pebble bounced back to her feet.

If the Chinese national football team had this skill, they wouldn't be asking for refunds.

Jiang Kehan ​​shrugged, thinking with some regret that she didn't know when the national football team would win the championship. Alas, she was going to never see it.

Ai Li'er caught sight of Jiang Kehan ​​and immediately ran over. The weather had turned cool, and she was wearing a wheat-colored long dress and a straw hat, which made her look less dashing and more mature.

Her long, golden hair was slightly curly, bobbing up and down with each step. With a smile, she handed a drink to Jiang Kehan ​​and began to speak.

"Can you stay with me now?"

Jiang Kehan ​​accepted the drink with both hands, feeling a warmth that she couldn't tell was from the drink itself or from the warmth of the other person's hands.

She inserted the straw and asked the other person, "Why not?"

Looking at each other in a completely different light than during the hunt, the two couldn't help but bend over, laughing so hard that the headlights of the car trembled slightly.

"Let's find a place to sit down and talk again. I found a nice dessert shop nearby, how about I treat you?"

Ai Li'er stroked her chest, finally managing to suppress her smile, and extended an invitation to Jiang Kehan.

Jiang Kehan ​​nodded obediently and followed behind the other person.

She tried taking a sip of the spicy beverage and was unexpectedly hit by the spiciness.

Jiang Kehan's expression was filled with confusion, distortion, and a hint of disbelief.

Why is this drink alcohol?!

She was somewhat speechless, but seeing that Ariel was drinking it so naturally, she tentatively opened her mouth.

"Um, this is a bar."

Moreover, in terms of taste, Jiang Kehan ​​was quite certain that this wine had a base alcohol content of 40 degrees and also featured a witch's special process, making it taste like playing with flames.

“Yes, it’s cold, so a drink of Winter’s Flame would be nice.” Ariel turned around and recommended to Jiang Kehan.

"Doesn't it feel much warmer now?"

Jiang Kehan ​​hesitated, the first word that came to her mind was "affected".

Putting everything else aside, look at the other witches around us who are still wearing short sleeves. Do you really think we need to resort to such methods for this little bit of cold weather?

Jiang Kehan ​​took another sip of her drink. With the added benefit of being prepared, she could taste a hint of sourness and sweetness beneath the spiciness. Overall, it was pretty good.

She couldn't help but rub her slightly warm belly, feeling that she had been captivated by this sentimentality.

Sigh, I've worked so hard for so long, can't I at least enjoy myself? Hehe, it tastes so good.

Soon, the two found a table and sat down at the dessert shop that Ariel had mentioned.

Ariel handed the menu to Jiang Kehan, then comfortably slumped back in her chair and spoke up while Jiang Kehan ​​was ordering.

"By the way, Kehan, do you remember I invited you to watch the Little Witch Duel after the hunt?"

Jiang Kehan ​​symbolically ordered a chocolate tart and handed the menu back to Ariel, nodding as she spoke.

"I remember, but it'll be a few more days."

Ariel stretched and casually picked up a small metal spoon from the table and put it in her mouth. She ordered a cup of bitter coffee and an egg roll.

"But the college's selection competition for senior students is tomorrow. I wonder if you'd be interested in watching it. You might gain some insights."

"After all, you want to pursue the path of dueling, don't you?"

She looked at Jiang Kehan, who was deep in thought, took the spoon out of her mouth, tapped it against the porcelain cup, making a tinkling sound, but she was quite confident that the other party would come.

If the other party is interested, Ariel feels confident that she can trick her into joining the academy team, which would increase the chances of Li Hui joining the school team next year.

Jiang Kehan ​​was about to agree when she suddenly thought of Li Hui and couldn't help but ask.

"I will probably go, but I don't know if Li Hui will go. She's the top student in the academy, right?"

Jiang Kehan's brows relaxed. She had no excuse to go to Li Hui, but the excuse came to her, which made her secretly happy.

But Ariel shook her head, let out a long sigh, and leaned back in her chair, looking listless.

"She can't come because of something, even though everyone and the teachers were really looking forward to it. Sigh."

Jiang Kehan ​​was somewhat surprised and anxious. She didn't want such an easy excuse to get close to Li Hui to slip away from her.

All she knows right now is that Li Hui's danger stems from herself and from alienation, but she has no idea why she feels alienated.

It wasn't just about wanting to complete the task of atonement; more than that, it was her heartfelt concern for Li Hui.

The more you understand the value of the Witch's Organization, the more certain you are that their judgments are never wrong, and the danger posed by Li Hui is definitely not unfounded.

Thinking of this, Jiang Kehan ​​disregarded whether it would be abrupt and looked at Ai Lier very seriously before speaking.

"Is Li Hui really not going to participate? She's the top student, you know. Should I go talk to her and see if she'll participate?"

Ai Li'er smacked her lips as she explained to Jiang Kehan.

"The so-called chief doesn't actually have any obligations. Well, although we still receive salaries from the academy and the witch organization, no one can force anyone to do anything."

"Besides, if I knew where Li Hui was, I wouldn't be so troubled. You might find me on his lap."

She pouted, looking somewhat resentful.

"Um, that matches my first impression of you." Jiang Kehan ​​looked at Ai Lier's undisguised expression, her lips twitched, and then she tentatively spoke.

Don't you have any friends like Li Hui?

Ariel glanced at her and said casually, "Of course not, why?"

"Um, I think I have..." Jiang Kehan ​​felt a little smug for some reason, but looking at the resentful Ai Li'er, she also felt a little guilty.

"Ugh!!!"

Ariel jumped up from her chair, braced her hands on the table, and stared incredulously at Jiang Kehan, who was shrinking back.

"No, how could you? No, how could you!"

Waaah, Ai Li'er felt surprised, but even more so, wronged, but she couldn't say it, and she couldn't let Jiang Kehan ​​see it.

She ground her back teeth, using reason to mask her grievances, and spoke to Jiang Kehan ​​with some agitation.

"Since you have Li Hui as a friend, why not try inviting her? If you're shy, just say you're begging me to invite her."

Ai Li'er's heart was bleeding. She had long noticed that Jiang Kehan ​​and Li Hui had a good relationship, but why was Jiang Kehan ​​better than Li Hui and me?

I hinted that you should try to get in touch with Li Hui, and I didn't expect you to actually do it!
