Miss Witch, please don't leave your fragrance everywhere

"threaten?"

"She threatened my position in Angel's heart! Why, Angel? I have been pursuing Angel for hundreds of years, but Angel has not accepted me. How can I tolerate someone who Angel has only known for less than half a year challenging my position? Even if Angel wants to have a harem, I have to be the main wife! For Angel, I became like Angel. For Angel, I became crazy..."

"Alright, alright, please stop with the corny love talk."

I really don't know where Coppelia learned these cheesy love words from.

Angelica finally understood why Coppelia was always unwilling to have a good relationship with Anna, and why Coppelia always emphasized to Anna that they were the legal ones.

Anna's appearance challenged Coppelia's position and made her feel a sense of crisis.

“…You should have said so earlier.”

"Angie should realize it herself."

"Your previous claim was too strange. I thought Coppelia didn't have such a thing as possessiveness."

"Because I don't completely possess Ange now, I hate some novels that are labeled as Minotaur. The hero and heroine in the story have not officially confirmed their relationship. This kind of novel should not be labeled as Minotaur from the beginning. It's obviously just the hero's failed secret love, right?"

"Don't go out of your way to educate me about this!"

Coppelia is a fundamentalist, and she must make sure that the relationship develops into pure love. If Angelica runs away to be with someone else, it will be in line with Coppelia's quirk.

"So I have to consolidate my position in Anjie's heart! If Anjie wants to be with that child, she must at least fall in love with me first."

"I don't understand why you are so persistent..."

Angelica remembered that she had clearly told Coppelia that the reason she had always rejected Coppelia was because of her strange habits, but Coppelia showed no signs of changing her ways.

"Did Anjie have a family before?"

"Why are you suddenly saying this... Well, I've been in the church's orphanage since I can remember. Anyway, when I was young, I didn't find any relatives related to me by blood, so they definitely don't exist now."

"I used to have a big family, with five people in total. I had parents who loved me, and an older sister and younger brother. My sister became a magician, and my younger brother worked as a farmer at home. Their magical aptitude was not as good as mine, so in the end, only I reached the realm of eternity."

Coppelia reveals her past.

"My eternity is achieved by transferring consciousness through lifelike puppets and constantly changing bodies. I thought it was a method tailor-made for me because I have a family that loves me, but I found that I couldn't transfer their souls into the puppet bodies I made... Then, my family members all passed away under my witness. Anjie should also understand that when you become an immortal Beyonder, your relatives, friends, and lovers will all leave you."

"Occasionally, there are still a few old friends who are relatively old enough to catch up with me."

"But they will eventually leave... The faces I'm familiar with are getting fewer and fewer. I try to make dolls that look like them, but I know in my heart that they've all left me. No matter what I do, it's in vain."

As a fellow Beyonder, Angelica naturally understood Coppelia's pain. However, when she spoke of this, Coppelia suddenly changed her slightly gloomy expression and smiled brightly.

“So I learned to enjoy it.”

"what?"

"Any race will feel lost and painful when they lose something that originally belonged to them... But I won't, okay? I will only feel lost because I didn't get it. Losing only makes me feel happy. After all, everything will leave me, so there is no need for me to feel lost again and again, right?"

enjoy.

Coppelia...is enjoying the process of "losing".

Angelica seemed to understand the origin of Coppelia's strange habit. Because of eternity, Coppelia kept witnessing everything around her leaving her, until one day Coppelia said, "It's great, I gradually understand everything," and gradually began to enjoy the concept of loss.

All Beyonders are somewhat abnormal, and this is probably what makes Coppelia abnormal.

"You idiot—"

In response to Coppelia's confession, Angelica hit Coppelia's forehead with her index finger without hesitation.

“Eh?! An-Angie?”

"I am an immortal and undead Beyonder like you. Why do you think you will lose me?"

"Ugh...I can't change my habits...!"

"I won't change my mind!"

Angelica continued to chase Coppelia, and soon Coppelia covered her forehead and was about to cry. After all, Coppelia had the same face as Angelica, so Angelica finally softened her heart.

"But Anjie has been actively looking for other beautiful girls..."

"This is not called changing my heart. I am sharing my love equally with everyone. I can't stand it... We are not going to grow old or die, but Coppelia still thinks I will leave you. What kind of image do you have of me in your heart..."

Angelica did not reflect on her own bad deeds at all. In fact, Coppelia found that Angelica had the habit of actively flirting with a beautiful girl when she saw her, so she was sure that Angelica would change her mind in the future.

Coppelia's logic is to pursue Angelica on the premise that she will definitely lose her. Past experiences have caused Coppelia to develop a strange habit of liking the process of "losing".

Rather than saying that Coppelia loves Angelica being killed by the Minotaur, it is better to say that this has become Coppelia's fixed mindset.

【Witch TIPS】

Although Beyonders are granted eternal life, their wills still wear away over time.

However, there are special cases like "Ash". "Ash" achieves eternity not for the desire of magic secrets or eternal life, but to fulfill some sad wish. Therefore, the will of "Ash" will not be erased by the torrent of time.

210 The Witch Lady Seems to Have Solved the Shura Field

"Wuwu... Anjie, please don't hate me..."

Coppelia grasped Angelica's arm pitifully like an abandoned animal.

"My tears and snot are getting on my clothes. If you keep doing this, I will sue you for infringing my portrait rights."

"Then Anjie will still like me as before?"

"When have I ever... Well, okay, I should be frank. To be honest, I don't hate Coppelia."

“Hey hey hey! Confession! This is a confession, right?!”

"Talking to you will shorten my life! I'm sorry that I don't have any lifespan to shorten. I value my image very much. If I really hated Coppelia, I would never allow Coppelia to use my face to do evil."

"I haven't done anything evil. Really, Anjie should have said it earlier. It turns out that we really love each other, hehe~"

"..."

Angelica suddenly felt a little regretful for confessing to Coppelia that she didn't hate Coppelia. As far as Angelica knew, Coppelia was always good at imagining things. She was afraid that they had already given birth to a nest in Coppelia's mind.

"How about calling our third granddaughter Veronica?"

"Have you imagined this far?!"

What were the names of the first two granddaughters? No, no, the point is that it is impossible.

Angelica tried hard not to follow Coppelia's pace. She calmed herself down and hoped that the noise they made was not heard by Anna and Clena.

"Anyway... I hope Coppelia can get along well with Anna. I don't want to see you guys really create a conflict that would put me in a dilemma."

"Good~"

Coppelia readily agreed, and Angelica couldn't help but wonder if Coppelia really understood. I hope Coppelia can really do it. But in fact, Coppelia agreed simply because she understood Angelica's claim that she didn't hate her as a confession, so she naturally had to make room for it like a first wife.

After all, I don't hate you...Isn't that just love you? Anjie even confessed her feelings in such a roundabout way~

Looking at Coppelia's perverted smile, Angelica was convinced that Coppelia must have misunderstood something. However, no matter how much she argued with Coppelia, it would be nothing more than repeating the same old things over and over again. Since Coppelia promised not to be angry with Anna again, she would just wait and see Coppelia's attitude for now.

"What are you going to do about the Banshee problem?"

"Banshee?"

"…Don't tell me you don't even remember where you are."

"Ah, since Ange was so happy to confess to you, so... Ange doesn't want to accept Clena, right?"

“Don’t make me sound cold-blooded.”

Angelica thought she was too old to be warm-hearted. According to her habit, she would not care unless there was benefit to be gained. But Coppelia had already agreed, so it would be unreasonable to give up halfway.

Angelica merely expressed her true feelings towards Clena. She admitted that Clena was a beautiful girl who made her heart beat fast, but this kind of heartbeat was almost to the extent that she had to change her wife every three months before she traveled through time.

Coppelia was distressed.

“Even if we forcibly send Clena back, she will not be happy in Kinkola.”

"Yes, at the same time, she can't even maintain the most basic life by herself. Let's not talk about food. The abundant supplies in her home are all provided by the fairies of Kinkola. The fairies may have complaints in their hearts, but they still can't bear to abandon Clena. I don't think it's the best outcome for this relationship to continue, but if we have no other choice, we can only maintain the status quo."

Clena chose to leave because she discovered through her mind-reading ability that the fairies also thought she was a trouble. However, fairies are a very weird race. Thinking that Clena is a burden does not mean they are willing to abandon her. If they leave Clena to fend for herself, they will begin to think in their hearts that Clena is so pitiful and we have to help her.

Coppelia pondered over it. The mutant magic was different from common sense. If she wanted to understand the principle behind it, it meant that they wanted to hurt Clena, which was contrary to Coppelia's original motive.

The Banshee is always misunderstood, and Clena adds uncontrollable mind-reading to the mix. Coppelia laments that she herself is not affected, because on the one hand, the Banshee cannot see her death date after reaching the eternal realm, and on the other hand, her body is a puppet, and Clena's mind-reading cannot see the puppet's true heart.

"Huh? A puppet?"

Coppelia suddenly had an idea.

"Angie Ange! I have a good idea~"

"I'm not sure about your idea... Tell me about it."

"We can make a doll for Clena and let the doll become Clena's friend!"

"Mind reading is indeed ineffective against puppets... It's incredible that Coppelia could come up with such a reasonable solution."

"Can Anjie come too? We can make dolls together, just like making our own child~"

Angelica's slight admiration for Coppelia was wiped out in less than five seconds. She knew that continuing to argue with Coppelia would be just a meaningless argument.

Moreover, the premise that Angelica thought Coppelia's idea was good was based on the premise that Coppelia would not make dolls randomly. Angelica knew that there were a large number of one-to-one life-size doll models of Angelica in Coppelia's workshop, some of which had even been used.

If Coppelia made a bunch of dolls based on Clena's prototype for her, Angelica would not accept it, because even she herself could not enjoy the treatment of being surrounded by herself.

The time required to make a doll depends on the skill level of the puppeteer. With Coppelia's level, it should be easy to do, but the doll that Coppelia is going to make for Clena must have self-awareness like Anna, which means it needs to reach the level of an automatic humanoid.

Coppelia still needs someone to help her to complete the task quickly. Although Angelica is not an excellent puppeteer, she is a witch after all, and can always play the role of an assistant.

"It just so happens that I am somewhat interested in puppet making, so I'll help Coppelia a little."

"Angie said that, but you actually want to steal the puppet-making skills from me so that you can use them on Anna in case of emergency, right?"

"Well……"

"Angie, you don't have to worry so much. I love Angel, and Angel loves me too. So I won't let anything that would make Angel sad happen."

"Gobelle, you..."

"Oh, by the way, Angel has to listen to me at night, otherwise I won't go find Golden Dawn."

"Give me back my feelings!"

211 The Witch Lady at the Bottom of the Food Chain

Angelica and Coppelia did not choose to tell Clena the solution. They planned to give Clena a surprise, and Anna was responsible for accompanying Clena most of the time.

Clena is shy by nature, but Anna is good at chatting, so Clena soon let down her guard.

Angelica and Coppelia were concentrating on making dolls, and a subtle episode occurred during the process.

"I quit."

"Anjie?"

"You said you were going to make a doll for Clena, but why are all of them based on me? Are you used to it because you usually make my dolls?"

The facial features of the doll made by Coppelia were an exact replica of Angelica, and she had created a clone of Angelica without even realizing it.

"Isn't it because Anjie always said that I should look prettier..."

"Of course. I have always paid more attention to appearance."

Angelica said righteously that in fact, when she chose to wake up Anna, she didn't know that Anna was an almighty maid. She chose to wake her up purely because Anna was a beautiful girl.

In fact, it doesn't matter if Anna is a useless maid. If she is a useless maid, Angelica should just teach Anna how to make up for it after making mistakes. Unfortunately, Anna never makes mistakes, and Angelica's bad intentions fail.

"I put together what I thought were the best eyes, the best nose, and the best mouth... and made it look like Ange."

“…There’s nothing we can do about it.”

Angelica, who had originally accused Coppelia angrily, suddenly accepted that Coppelia had made a clone of her. According to Coppelia's logic, there could be no other result.

"Why don't I be responsible for modifying the face?"

"Angie is the one who made the face... doesn't that mean this child is the fruit of my love with Angie?!"

"We are just collaborating to make puppets, right? Where is the love injected?"

"Angie is so heartless. I regard all the artificial creatures I release as my own children. Speaking of which, an artificial dragon I released not long ago seemed to have been conquered. I was very sad for a long time."
