Otaku Witch-Chapter 515 - 414. Authority of the King of Angels

"Tsk, just when I thought you looked cool for once, Miss, couldn't you have kept it up for a few more minutes?"

The domineering and dignified Miss who had been looking down on the world had vanished like an illusion, replaced by the trembling Dorothy in front of her, her face expressing "take it easy". Sophia was somewhat speechless, yet she found it somewhat amusing.

She was truly unsure which persona was the true nature of the Miss: Was it the occasionally arrogant and fearsome tyrant, or the low-key, timid witch who only thought about taking it easy every day?

Or perhaps both were just facets of the Miss.

But now she was too lazy to differentiate so clearly, especially since the Miss had spoken so definitively just a moment ago, and she had really listened; there was no longer anything to fear.

"Maria, would you like to walk by the river with me?"

The Pure White Witch set down her knife and fork and, looking up at this online friend she had known for years but was meeting in person for the first time today, extended the invitation.

Since the Miss had already recharged her courage, she no longer needed to hesitate, it was time to discuss serious matters.

She would follow the Miss's advice, speak candidly with Maria, and then let the Revelation Fleet decide whether to follow her.

However, she wouldn't completely follow the Miss's advice. After all, each person has their own character and way of handling things. The Miss could employ the dominating royal tactics, but those weren't really suited for her.

Besides, she didn't want to lie flat and just wait tranquilly for the Miss to help her ascend; after all, this was her own fate.

The reason she had been so obsessed with the position of God King Holy Child was not really because she coveted the status and power it brought; she merely set it as a goal for herself, the first challenge after she officially began to take control of her fate.

So, if she were to truly lie flat and do nothing, just waiting for the Miss to lift her up, what significance would the easily obtained position of God King Holy Child have then?

Wouldn't she just become a burden to the Miss, a parasite clinging to her?

This outcome was something Sophia could never accept.

Though she indeed envisioned her future as serving as a retainer to the Miss, a qualified retainer should be capable of alleviating the Miss's worries, possessing the strength or wisdom to assist her, not the kind who constantly has troubles and waits for the Miss to clean up after them.

Moreover, in the Witch World, being a retainer is merely a job. During working hours, you are the Lord, and I am a retainer; after working hours, everyone is a witch, equal and independent in fate and dignity.

Thus, there's no logic to the notion that a retainer's capabilities must be weaker than those of a Lord. In fact, many retainers in major Witch Territories are stronger than the Lords themselves, but these individuals either aren't suited or simply prefer not to lead, so they choose to serve under the Lords as retainers.

Therefore, even if Sophia willingly becomes the Miss's retainer, it doesn't mean she would completely forgo her own character in deference to the Miss.

A qualified retainer should clean up after the Lord; anyone who comfortably expects the Lord to do it for them isn't a retainer but something like a favored consort.

So, as a joke, there is no way Sophia could become the favored consort of the Miss, absolutely not.

For someone who has long decided to control her own fate, she would never bow down to anyone in this lifetime.

Indeed, her future must lie above.

So, capitalizing on the Miss's support to do whatever she wants is out of the question; Sophia doesn't really plan to utilize the Miss's support. Its only purpose is to give her confidence, filling her heart with courage. The rest, she will handle herself.

"Hehe, no wonder the Miss absolutely refused to inherit her teacher's business before. I kind of understand her foolish persistence now; I used to think she was silly, but now I've become that kind of fool myself."

Sophia looked up at the sky, then turned to smile at the still trembling Miss.

Well, it seems this Miss wasn't as incompatible as she initially thought.

"Alright, Lady Sophia."

Upon hearing that the Holy Lady had personally invited her, the red-haired Eight-Winged Angel Witch was overjoyed. She had been worried about how to talk with this future protagonist in front of a table full of people, especially since her previous secret message was embarrassingly discovered by the mysterious Miss, making her now completely hesitant to send any more messages.

And by her side, seeing their big sister walk away, Michelle and Cerise also wanted to follow; in fact, up until just now, they hadn't entirely understood what was happening; how a simple fishing trip suddenly turned into dining with an unfamiliar little witch.

Just now, the two of them had also thought about secretly asking Sister Maria what was going on, but since the big sister seemed disinclined to explain, they didn't ask further. Then, the delicious spread on the table completely distracted them from anything else.
