Chapter 722: Competition, Himiko in History

The two then went to the train station, but it was obvious that Hogwarts did not exist in this world, and naturally there was no Nine and Three Quarters Station.

"What a pity!" Laura stood on the platform, watching the slowly departing train, unable to hide the disappointment on her face.

"No way." Luo Youwei said helplessly: "My father told me that different worlds have different rules, so there must be more or less differences."

"Since supernatural powers really exist, and there really is another world." Laura looked at Luo Youwei and said, "Does that mean that the terrible witch Himiko that my father is tracking down also exists?"

"It's very likely." Luo Youwei nodded and said, "But I'm not too sure. If you don't mind, we'd better ask my father."

"Of course, I mean I certainly don't mind." Laura looked at Luo Youwei and asked tentatively: "Does Uncle Luo know magic like you?"

"That's right." Luo Youwei didn't intend to hide anything. After all, there was no need to hide it if she couldn't.

And she trusted Laura more, believing that she knew what to say and what not to say.

Luo Youwei smiled and said, "It's just that my dad rarely admits that he uses magic. He only says that he is performing a trick."

She spoke the last two words in Mandarin.

"Magic?" Laura obviously didn't understand, and asked in the same way as Luo Youwei, but her tone sounded really out of place.

"You can think of it as Chinese magic." Luo Youwei said with a smile, "If we hadn't been friends since childhood and I believed you would keep the secret for me, I would definitely tell you that what I used before was magic."

"Vivian, thank you for your trust." Laura looked at Luo Youwei gratefully, and then boldly guessed: "You said that those famous magicians are not all magicians, right?"

"It should...not be possible?" Luo Youwei was also a little confused.

Because she had heard her father say many times, half-jokingly, that if she couldn't make it as a doctor one day, she could become a magician or perform magic tricks on the street, and she would surely become famous by just saying something like "witnessing a miracle".

Since Rosen can think so, it is hard to say whether other magicians will think so.

But since there is no Hogwarts in this world, Luo Youwei is very curious about where magic comes from and what it is like?

While she was thinking randomly, she had already driven the car into her own manor.

After parking the car, he called Laura and went straight to a fairly spacious courtyard.

This yard used to be a garden, but now it has been trampled into pieces.

When Luo Youwei and Laura arrived, Rosen and Alita were fighting in close combat.

Of course Luo Youwei knew that the two of them were just sparring, but to Laura they were like mortal enemies, and every move was aimed at the other's fatal points.

The two men fought quickly and fiercely, exchanging blows for more than a dozen times with crackling sounds. Their footsteps were heavy, and every time they collided at close range, their strength exploded, often trampling the flowers and plants under their feet into a mess.

"If my mother saw her favorite garden become like this, she would definitely be unhappy." Luo Youwei covered her face, looking as if she couldn't bear to watch it.

Swish.

With a gust of wind, Rosen's right hand was already on Alita's neck.

The fierce fight between the two came to an abrupt end.

"I lost." Alita smiled bitterly helplessly.

Even though her body was mechanical, a body of steel was useless against Rosen.

Back then in the Scrap City, Alita saw him fight with her own eyes. With one punch, the cyborg shattered on the spot, so she admitted defeat as soon as she got the chance.

"Much better than before." Rosen said with a comforting smile.

At the same time, he was also very happy in his heart, because he could also gain skill proficiency by sparring with Alita. Although not as much as when fighting and killing enemies, it was good to get some, so he naturally would not be picky.

"What do you want from me?" Rosen walked up to Luo Youwei and asked.

"Let's go to the study and talk." Luo Youwei pointed at the scattered flowers and leaves on the ground and said, "I'm afraid if you keep looking at these, you will be reminded of your mother getting mad at you. Tsk tsk, it's really too scary!"

Rosen glanced at his daughter, waved his hand and released a restoration effect, and the mess on the ground disappeared instantly, turning into a lush garden again.

When Laura saw it, even though she had heard Luo Youwei say it before, she still couldn't help being shocked.

"Uncle Rosen, is this... magic?" Laura asked.

"No." Rosen waved his hand and said, "It's just a little trick, not worth mentioning."

Laura looked at Luo Youwei, who happened to look over as well.

The two exchanged glances, and then burst out laughing at the same time.

Although Rosen was somewhat confused by the laughter, he was not angry. He asked the two to sit down on the wooden chairs in the garden and said, "Tell me, what is the matter? It is worth your seriousness."

"Dad, have you heard of Himiko?" Luo Youwei asked.

"Of course." Rosen nodded and said, "It is said that the queen of Yamatai during the Yayoi period in Xiaori had a strange vision and a vertical crack on her forehead."

"At that time, China was in the Three Kingdoms period. Himiko also sent envoys to the Wei Kingdom and was granted a gold seal, purple ribbon and 100 bronze mirrors by the pro-Wei Wa king. This event is recorded in the Book of Han, and the woman Himiko is also mentioned in the Book of the Later Han." (Note)

Rosen thought for a moment and said, "They say she is old and unmarried, and that she practices ghosts and gods, and can seduce the people with her magic, so they all make her the king."

"I don't know if it's because this is a ghost way, using demons to confuse the public, so there are quite a lot of legends about her. Some say she is a priestess serving the sun god, and some say she is the reincarnation of some powerful person. In short, there are many stories, and it's hard to tell the truth from the false."

At this point, he looked at Luo Youwei and Laura and said, “Why are you two suddenly curious about her?”

"Uncle Rosen, what if her legend is not just a legend?" Laura said.

"Oh." Rosen's expression changed slightly, and he followed her words and said, "That's a bit scary."

"That's why we came to see you." Luo Youwei said, "We just found the information left by Laura's father. It turns out that he didn't disappear mysteriously, but went to Yamatai to look for Himiko."

"So, you just want to go and take a look?" Rosen asked.

"Yeah." Luo Youwei nodded.

"It's absolutely impossible for just the two of you to go." Rosen shook his head and said, "But if Alita and I go together, then it will be fine."

"Thank you, Dad." Luo Youwei was overjoyed.

"It's better to do it now than to wait for a better day." Rosen looked at the time on his watch and said, "Hurry up and pack your belongings. We'll set off in an hour."

"Okay." Luo Youwei nodded, took Laura's hand and hurried to prepare various equipment needed for survival and combat in the wild.
