——Two years later.

"Teacher, I have a question to ask you."

"I don't know~"

In the witch's room, the witch, curled up in the quilt, lazily rejected Merlin's questions.

Angelica lay on the bed, flipping through a magazine, and stretched out her hand to put the delicious potato chips into her mouth, but she didn't grab the chips.

When I looked up, I saw Merlin holding potato chips and a Coke in his left and right hands respectively, with a helpless look on his face.

"Teacher, you are eating this kind of useless food again. Ever since this thing called Coke came out a year ago, I have been holding on to it every day and can't figure out what's so good about it."

"Woo woo...give me back my happy water..."

"Teacher, pretending to cry doesn't work for me anymore."

Merlin shook his head. In the past two years, he had figured out the witch's tricks. She was very good at taking advantage of her beauty and felt at ease. If he couldn't get used to it, he would be led by the witch. Fortunately, after two years of living with her day and night, Merlin had become immune to the witch's tricks.

"Hmph... Merlin, you're not cute at all. I haven't had a carbonated drink in a long time, so I have to drink as much as I can."

"Long time? I remember it was invented not long ago. Could it have appeared before?"

The cola in the other world was invented in a town where prohibition was implemented. The brewer in the town originally planned to use black technology to brew illegal liquor and sell it, but he accidentally brewed cola, which eventually became a hit and quickly became a popular drink across the continent.

"It's complicated to explain...Okay, you go out first. I need to get dressed."

"You're just fooling me again, right? I'm not leaving."

"Sexy disciple."

Angelica angrily kicked out Merlin who was looking forward to it. Two years ago, Merlin would have blushed and been at a loss, but now he was unmoved and even looked forward to it. Although it was natural for him to be interested in her impeccable body, Angelica still found it more fun to tease the shy Merlin.

After putting on his regular clothes, Merlin waited for Angelica in the courtyard and handed a glass of water to the witch.

"Here, teacher."

"They actually offered me water... Oh, is there a mysterious potion in it that can make me sleep?"

"No. Why would the teacher think in that direction?"

"Every time I go out, the mercenaries in the tavern will try every means to get me drunk. I've trained myself to the point where I can tell what's in the tavern just by smelling it."

Angelica sniffed the edge of the glass and immediately raised her eyebrows. She noticed that there was something strange about this clear glass of water.

"Is this... a liquid created by the impact of the water flow of Aquarius Sequence 8?"

"Yes, I collected it."

"Merlin, the water created by the Aquarius Sequence Eight Water Flow Impact is not drinkable."

"Sure enough."

Merlin wasn't surprised by the witch's conclusion.

"I studied the amount of mana consumed and the amount of water flow created by the water impact, and found that at my current level, if I eat normally for a day, the amount of water I can create alone is enough to fill up the entire reservoir."

"Your level has surpassed many amateur magic apprentices."

"But there are many magicians who are stronger than me, right? I can create such a huge water flow, so there is no reason why other famous magicians cannot do it. Sequence Eight magic is not difficult to master, but there are still many countries and towns in the world that cannot drink water. This is really too abnormal."

Merlin took the water cup from the witch and drank the liquid inside.

"So I tried drinking only the liquid created by the water flow for a few days, but I found that I still felt thirsty and I didn't replenish my energy at all. Teacher, magic... can't create objects that replenish energy, right?"

"If I could, I wouldn't have to worry about food every time I travel."

Angelica also complained about this, but Merlin came to the right conclusion.

"Not only food, but also magic that can create water. The water flow is a magical liquid similar to water. It can neither replenish moisture nor be used to water plants. Magic cannot create any objects that replenish energy. The most it can do is store food like raisins in space."

"What a pity. If the water produced by water impact can be drunk, there may be no more water shortages in the world."

"That's hard to say. Take Water Stream Impact for example. Although it's only Sequence 8 magic, some people may never be able to learn it in their entire lives."

“But some people can’t learn it, and no one can learn it are two different concepts.”

Merlin's expression was extremely serious.

"As long as someone can learn it, there is a chance to bring the blessing of magic to faraway places."

"…Interesting idea."

Angelica felt a little surprised. To be fair, Merlin's talent was quite good. If Angelica had not taught him magic, Merlin would probably have ended his life as a poacher without discovering his magical talent.

However, Merlin, at such a young age, showed a thinking ability that was not in line with his age, which really impressed Angelica. So Angelica asked Merlin more seriously.

"Merlin, let me ask you a question. What kind of magic do you think is powerful magic?"

This is a meaningless question.

No teacher in any magic academy would ask students such questions, and if a student asked a teacher such questions, he would most likely be treated as a disruptor of class and sent to the corridor for punishment.

Because the answer is obvious. Sequence One magic can only be learned by one person, and the profound knowledge and mysteries it contains are the direction of every magician's lifelong study.

Merlin answered without hesitation.

"Sequence One magic... and Sequence Nine magic."

"Oh? Sequence Nine magic? Why? Because it is the foundation for studying magic?"

"No. Because the learning threshold of Sequence 9 magic is very low, and it is very helpful in life. There is almost no limit on the number of people who can learn it. I think Sequence 9 magic has a chance to enter every household."

【Witch TIPS】

The name of the "white" witch Coppelia comes from the ballet "The Girl with the Enamel Eyes". The Coppelia in the story is a lifelike mechanical doll, and a man even falls in love with her at first sight and shows his affection to her in every way.

Coppelia in this book is also an extraordinary person who uses a puppet body to continuously transfer her consciousness. After she successfully creates a new body, she will immediately destroy the original old body.

75 The Magic of Happiness

"When I first met the teacher, the magic he used was Sequence 6 Fireball. The principle of Fireball is to use magic power to generate high-temperature flames and then release them. Fireball is Sequence 6 magic, and the composition of its magic formula determines that it has a minimum temperature limit, which means that Fireball can only be a pure killing magic."

Some people might wonder why Fireball is actually a sequence six magic, which is a magic that only certified magicians can learn under the rules of this world. In fact, Angelica was also surprised when she was learning magic, that Fireball was actually an intermediate magic.

But after actual use, Angelica found that she might have underestimated the value of Fireball. Perhaps it was because the effect of Fireball in the comics before the time travel was at best to make people look dirty and had almost no lethality, which led Angelica to have a wrong perception.

Fireball is a magic recognized by everyone as having a very obvious benefit in terms of damage and mana consumption among Sequence Six. It can generate terrifyingly high temperatures in a very short period of time. Magicians are mortal after all, and even if they do not lose their lives after being hit by a fireball, they will suffer severe burns on their bodies.

Its nature was so vile that there was a period of time when protests against Fireball broke out, and human female magicians collectively petitioned the church to ban Fireball. They were extremely disgusted with this magic that could easily cause disfigurement.

However, the ban on fireball was eventually abolished after being implemented for a period of time, because the beliefs of the human world are not the same, not to mention the existence of other races. The ban on fireball is equivalent to restricting rule-abiding people in vain.

The reason lies in two aspects. One is that people who have reached the level of magicians can easily learn the Fireball Technique of Sequence 6. The second reason is the magic formula composition that Merlin mentioned. The magic formula composition of the Fireball Technique will make the flames reach a high temperature that is difficult for civilians to use. If you try to change the magic formula composition of the lowest temperature of the Fireball Technique, it will directly destroy the magic formula, making it impossible to chant the Fireball.

Merlin's assessment of Fireball was spot on: pure murderous magic.

After saying that, Merlin raised his index finger, and a flame ignited on his fingertip.

"Incineration, Sequence 9: Sparks. Sequence 9 Sparks can be used in daily life, such as lighting torches, cooking, and camping... From this perspective, Sparks is a much more powerful magic than Fireball."

“Interesting theory.”

"Teacher, I think Sequence Nine magic may be the perfect form of magic."

"So in your understanding, what is the meaning of magic?"

"The meaning of magic? It should be to make those who learn it live happier."

"..."

Angelica was silent, with an expression Merlin had never seen before.

"Did I come to a stupid conclusion?"

"No, not really. You're... somewhat similar to me from a long time ago."

Merlin's eyes suddenly lit up: "So the teacher agrees with my idea?"

"But that was just my immature and naive thinking when I was very young."

"Uh... does this mean that the teacher has changed his mind now?"

“I just gave up.”

The witch said lightly.

"I tried before, an ideal country where everyone can be happy, using magic to bless everyone... but I failed, that's it."

Merlin almost blurted out, wanting to ask Angelica what happened, but he didn't say anything in the end. He couldn't tell whether Angelica's expression at this moment was sadness or open-mindedness due to the passage of time.

"I won't give up. I've decided to try again."

"Oh?"

"Although Fireball is a pure killing magic, there are many high-sequence magics that can be used in daily life. For example, Star Map Overlook, with it, the fleet on the ocean will no longer get lost. However, Star Map Overlook is a Sequence 5 magic. A magician who is capable of learning Star Map Overlook will not be content to be a navigator. I wonder if there is a way to popularize magic like Star Map Overlook."

"That's a good idea, but I'll say this first. I won't teach you how to popularize it. You have to figure it out on your own."

However, Merlin's age is just the right age for a teenager who refuses to admit defeat. He was not discouraged by the witch's negative attitude at all. On the contrary, Merlin became even more enthusiastic.

This seems to be something that even the witch teacher can't do. If I can achieve it -

"If I can achieve this, can I propose to the teacher?"

With a passion in his heart, Merlin said something that would have made him blush two years earlier.

The witch was not angry, and her smile was as bright and cheerful as ever.

"You can do it now. But the answer is I refuse."

"Eh--"

——Three years later.

Merlin decided to leave the Misty Mountains, his talent had reached the level of a wizard.

"By the way, I've always been curious, why did the teacher raise slimes and tentacle monsters on the road leading to the Misty Mountains?"

"They can keep boring intruders out. I don't want to be disturbed every day. An annoying guy like you is enough for my stupid disciple."

"Can I understand that I already live in the teacher's heart?"

"It's impossible. Give up."

Merlin packed his bags and had a conversation with the witch that didn't feel like a farewell at all. Merlin thought that since he had lived in the Misty Mountains for more than five years, his teacher should be a little sad when they parted.

However, Angelica's attitude was very calm. Merlin wanted to be optimistic and think that the teacher was just forcing a smile, but he knew in his heart that Angelica was not very sad. Although this was definitely not a farewell, Merlin was far from being able to learn the Sequence 2 Space Warp, which meant that Merlin himself did not know when he could return to the Misty Mountains again.

When Angelica stays at home for a long time, she will go out for a wander from time to time. Sometimes she will come back after a few months, and sometimes after more than ten years. Even if Merlin comes back, he may not be able to see the witch.

As long as Angelica didn't take the initiative to look for Merlin, the time they spent together would not be as long as Merlin spent learning magic in the Misty Mountains.

Coming to the courtyard, Merlin looked up and the pungent sunlight shone on his face. The terrain of the Misty Mountains was very peculiar. There was overlapping fog during the climb, but the top of the mountain was a sunny and beautiful view.

In the warm sunlight, the beautiful face of the witch without the wizard hat was clearly visible, and her skin looked even more delicate. Merlin looked at all this, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart.

"Teacher, you haven't changed at all."

76 The Witch Lady Who Is Not Good at Raising Children

At first, Merlin had no clear idea of ​​what the witch called herself: the witch of immortality and immortality.

Angelica said that she would not age and would not die. Time has proved everything. When Merlin was still an ignorant boy, he did not know magic and his height was only up to the witch's chest. The witch at that time was exactly the same as she is now.

Five years later, Merlin had grown into a wizard and was taller than Angelica, but she was still the same as before.

"You have changed a lot."

"You mean height?"

"Of course I'm talking about the fact that you're becoming more and more perverted. When I was willing to teach you magic, I never thought about preventing you from stealing my changed pantyhose."

"The teacher's beauty is unmatched. I am just expressing my love for the teacher in my own way!"

"I don't remember teaching you in this direction."

Angelica glared at Merlin angrily. Over the past few years, Merlin's magical talent had improved by leaps and bounds, and his personality had also become more and more perverted. He used to be a young boy who would blush and be at a loss when he saw her face, but now he has completely turned into a pervert who is not wrongly imprisoned for harassment.

Angelica didn't do anything at all, at most she gave Merlin some corporal punishment when teaching him magic.
