Otaku Witch-Chapter 485 - 402. Equal Duel_2
Before, when Little Fox's Magic Power burst forth and crushed her directly, her death was quite serene, but once Senior Mia got addicted to the game, she became like a cat that enjoys tormenting its prey. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so scared when she was confessed to during the challenge at the Armed Society that she immediately took action.
"No, how about this time we base the strength on me? Little Fairy, if you have magic power similar to mine, there won't be anything to worry about, right?"
Senior Mia shook her head, saying so.
"Ah this... Can we really do that?"
Dorothy was taken aback, not expecting such a possibility.
"We can't do that in a normal Arena, but this highest-level Arena allows us to set it up that way, although it's actually a rather superfluous feature on ordinary days."
Senior Mia nodded and answered with a smile.
Well, generally speaking, if two parties of unequal strength wish to have an equal duel, they directly limit the strength of the more powerful one, because even with reduced strength, a strong person can still exhibit their Strength. However, if you forcibly accelerate the growth of the weaker one, it's like giving a child a large knife to wield—they might lose control themselves.
Therefore, although this Arena really has this customization feature, it's not often needed for everyday use; it is only occasionally used by witches whose strength has declined for various reasons, so they can reminisce about the past when they were at their peak.
However, Senior Mia also knew that her beloved was an exception. Her strength had long since surpassed the level her Magic Power should allow, and even if she were truly given the strength of a Great Witch, there would be no concern that she wouldn't be able to control it.
"Wow, so we can actually play it like this?"
Dorothy was genuinely excited. If she too had the magical power of a Great Witch level, then there was nothing to hesitate about. It wouldn't just be taking on Senior Mia—she wouldn't fear even if another Sophia and an Audrey were added...
emmmmm, she might probably perhaps possibly be able to die more gracefully, I guess.
Initially, the Homebody Witch wanted to get a little carried away, but thinking about how not a single person by her side was to be taken lightly, she inexplicably started to feel somewhat uneasy again.
No helping it—between Senior Mia's bombardment, Audrey's Mental Domination, or Sophia's dirty Destiny Pattern, they were all quite headache-inducing. One-on-one she felt she could take them on, but any more than that would be way too cocky.
"Well, let's give it a try, but Senior, if you lose later, don't blame me for not going easy on you, this is all by your own doing."
After careful thought, Dorothy raised an eyebrow and nodded, saying so.

One against many might be too presumptuous, but one-on-one? She felt pretty confident in this round.
"Alright, alright, as long as I'm fighting with you, Little Fairy, I'm happy no matter what."
Seeing her beloved agree, Senior Mia was overjoyed, nodding and giving her assurance.
She naturally knew that with Little Fairy's knowledge and Talent, as long as Little Fairy's shortfall in Magic Power was compensated, she would probably be the strongest among them all; even she might not be able to win against her and could possibly be turned over.
But it didn't matter, as Little Fairy was no outsider. Mia would love for her beloved to become as strong as possible. Her proposal was not about winning or losing, but mainly to witness what Little Fairy would look like at her full potential.
Just thinking about that scenario, Senior Mia couldn't help but recall that Fairy King from the Magic Web Duel tournament who knocked her out with a single punch. Although she was very angry at the time and had trouble accepting the disparity, in hindsight, that Fairy King really looked cool and awe-inspiring, a figure that stirred her heart.
It was probably at that moment that she really fell for Little Fairy. After all, a dragon by nature admires strength. Before that, the Fairy King had been nothing more than an indestructible toy for her; she might have really liked him, but it was just a fleeting interest born on impulse, which would likely have worn off once the novelty faded.
But after that Magic Web Duel, the little toy's complete turnaround and conquest made the previously potential online crush suddenly intriguing to her, and she wanted to delve deeper. However, the guy just vanished, and during the days and nights of longing that followed, this unspoken love began to ferment and etch deeply into her heart.
And after the long-awaited reunion with Little Fairy at the academy, although Senior Mia didn't change her heart and turn her back on her beloved due to the gap in real-life strength, in her eyes, Little Fairy was cute in every aspect, and the more she looked, the more she liked. But actually, she wished Little Fairy would be a bit more forceful.
Well, the feeling of being conquered was quite nice, too.
"Then it's settled. Let's go, let's go. Today I'll show you all what being truly invincible means," Dorothy said.
Naturally, the wealthy senior had no idea what was going on in Dorothy's mind; she was simply eager to try out the power user card.
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, Duel begins.]
As the two entered the Arena, Sophia set the duel conditions and clicked to start the duel.
Because of the special rules of this match, the Pure White Witch was also looking forward with concentrated attention to the upcoming duel. After all, Senior Mia wasn't the only one curious about Dorothy's prime condition; Sophia was equally eager to see how the young miss would perform.
Audrey was also watching eagerly at the moment, Little Fox's eyes wide open, even forgetting to eat her snacks.
In the midst of the Arena, as the match began and the countdown started, Dorothy still felt a powerful strength being imbued into her through the Barrier Array of the Arena, her mana starting to surge. While a normal person's body would've exploded with such a vast influx of Magic Power, she felt no discomfort at all, as if the mana was naturally her own, honed through her own cultivation.
This was different from the feeling when Senior Fanny lent her mana, as she could clearly sense that her own output power had also increased. It wasn't the feeling of a small pipe releasing water into the sea; it was a sense of complete control that allowed her to wield all that power at will.
Even her Attribute Talent was directly boosted by the mana, and all her attributes began to rise to match the surging mana.
In that moment, Dorothy had truly become a Great Witch with 390k Mana.
"Wow, what kind of Pava is this?" Dorothy exclaimed.
Clasping her fists tightly, Dorothy felt the powerful force coursing through her and looked up at the complex and profound Magic Pattern Array surrounding the Arena, her curiosity piqued.
She was quite curious about how the Arena accomplished such a natural strengthening of an individual's power. If she could master this technique, then the next time she borrowed Senior Fanny's mana, she'd do it in this fashion.
Unfortunately, the Barrier Array above the Arena flashed by in an instant, not giving Dorothy much time to study. And the glimpse she caught of the Array's content was a headache for her, a sign that its principles and layout were not something an ordinary Great Witch could comprehend.
Perhaps the Arena was the work of a Peak Witch or even a Sage.
Regrettable as it was, Dorothy didn't dwell on it. She had confidence in her learning ability; if her knowledge was insufficient now, that would change in the future. In a few more years, after passing the Middle Level or even High Level exams of the Nine Major Schools, such things would be a breeze.
Her future was forever full of promise.
So, on the rare occasion to experience a glimpse of the future, she decided to revel in the moment first.
Dorothy turned her gaze toward Senior Mia across from her, then thought for a moment and simply took off her glasses and untied her scarf. With a witch's hair gel in hand, she lifted her bangs to reveal the Face of God that stunned the world.
The Homebody Witch then gave a charmingly evil smile.
Well, it's not often she gets to show off, so today she wouldn't be low-key.
Heh, even if this power was borrowed, fake, and temporary, Dorothy was determined to dominate alone today.
...Dorothy's confidence swelling...
