Witch Special

"Let's not talk about him anymore, it's a dampener. Maki, how far along are you with the trial I prepared for you?"

Teacher Patchouli ended the discussion about Lucifer, the cross-dressing guy, and changed the subject to ask Lin Zhenxi about her progress in the celebration world.

Although Patchouli had organized this event as a celebration, open to everyone in the Garden of the Dead, it was actually primarily for Lin Zhenxi, to show her what a world ravaged by chaos would look like. As for the others, they were merely incidental.

Maintaining such a large celebration world every day was actually quite troublesome. Patchouli's intention was to check on Lin Zhenxi's progress and turn off the unnecessary difficulties. Anyway, the Death Courtyard Carnival had already been going on long enough, so no one would say anything if it was stopped now.

Of course, the usual banquets were still necessary, and this was actually what worried Patchouli. Normally, whether it was a sudden change or a celebration, the organizing force would hold a banquet after the event and invite all the important figures in the Departed Courtyard to attend.

Of course, there are no mandatory requirements for the guests. They can come or not. When they come, they will just eat, drink, chat and brag, and play some spell card games for entertainment. Except for the last item, it is actually no different from an ordinary human gathering.

However, there is still a difference between humans and non-humans, and at banquets, this difference is reflected in endurance. In the Garden of the Dead, a banquet must last at least three days, and it must last day and night. If ghosts are in attendance, it can easily last seven or eight days.

This really annoyed Teacher Patchouli. In the past, when the Scarlet Devil Mansion launched the Red Mist Incident, Remlia was the protagonist, and she was just a member of the Scarlet Devil Mansion. She could just show up at the opening to give Remlia face and then leave. But this time, she was the organizer, and she needed to be there the whole time, otherwise it would be impolite to everyone.

Patchouli's scalp tingled at the thought of having to socialize for so long. She was a homebody, so much so that she'd grow mushrooms on her body. Socializing was such a hassle.

There is a gate of hell to cross before us, what should we do... Or, how about triggering another crisis that will affect the whole world, even the whole galaxy, the whole universe, so that no one will be in the mood to hold a party?

Teacher Patchouli is not capable of doing such a cruel thing.

So in the end, there's no escape... Sigh.

It was obviously impossible for Lin Zhenxi to know that what Teacher Patchouli was worrying about was how to hold the upcoming banquet. When she heard the teacher ask this, she immediately reported her progress in conquering the celebration world like a primary school student whose teacher was checking her homework.

I heard Lin Zhenxi say that she was stuck at the beginning of the Mochizuki difficulty because her magic broom was broken by the red and white priestess covered with mosaics, so she made a new metal magic broom. Then she met Reimu Maru during the test flight and was dragged to the Wind God Lake in Youkai Mountain by her. This led to the accidental activation of the interplanetary high-speed channel and the teleportation to the outskirts of the sanctuary where she met Lucifer.

After hearing Lin Zhenxi's overly complicated story, even Patchouli, who usually rarely showed any expression, couldn't help but burst out laughing. Was Lin Zhenxi just a little too unlucky? How could such a series of accidents have collided with each other?

Well, you can't say she's unlucky. After all, judging from the results, she got the Heart of the Elemental Spirit and identified her own innate element. This is a huge profit no matter how you look at it.

So, actually, Lin Zhenxi turned out to be a blessing in disguise?

That's fine. After all, this disciple of his is indeed a little too weak to be useful to others. He needs to give her more opportunities to increase her strength, so that he won't have to worry about her being eaten by monsters blocking the way even when he goes out.

However, when Lin Zhenxi encountered setbacks in the trial, Teacher Patchouli showed no intention of helping her. This was the trial she had prepared for Lin Zhenxi. She was the one who set the questions and was the referee. If she went down to help Lin Zhenxi copy the answers, wouldn't that be helping her cheat?

So Patchouli turned the topic to Hayashi Maki's newly identified natal element, "string".

In the worldview of this book, there are twelve basic elements: the lower six of "fire, water, wind, earth, light, and darkness" and the upper six of "life, death, time, space, order, and chaos." In the center of the hexagram of elements, there is an extraneous element.

At the center of the six lower elements is "lightning magic power", and at the center of the six upper elements is "soul power".

However, this is just the most basic division, as described in the book "Advanced Magic." Anyone who has been to college should know that what teachers teach in class and what you use at work are two completely different things, so how to specifically divide these elements depends on your personal understanding.

For example, Teacher Patchouli divided the elements into the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and the sun and the moon representing yin and yang.

Tsk, she's clearly a Western witch, but her magic system uses the Eastern classification method.

Lin Zhenxi uses the Golden Three Rules to classify magic, and her definition of elements is more flexible. If the hexagram classification method is convenient, she will use the hexagram, and if the five elements are convenient, she will use the five elements. She knows both anyway, but she is more familiar with the former.

After all, Lin Zhenxi really laid the foundation of magic in the wizarding world. By the time she met teacher Patchouli later, she had already gotten started in magic.

Well, he is at the level of a junior high school graduate, having just completed nine years of compulsory education. Although he is old enough to enter society and accept beatings, in the eyes of adults, he is no different from a child who knows nothing.

Lin Zhenxi's newly acquired "string" element clearly doesn't belong to the twelve plus two basic elements. Lin Zhenxi said it was obtained by intercepting the ripples generated when time collides with space. The difficulty of obtaining it alone is so high, and its specific properties are even more exciting.

Teacher Patchouli is a witch cursed by knowledge, and her thirst for knowledge is beyond words. The "string" element is an unknown magical knowledge that she has never encountered before, and it naturally has an unexpected appeal to her.

If Patchouli hadn't been so curious about the "string" element, she would have let Lin Zhenxi rest by now. After all, after going through such a thing, Lin Zhenxi must be mentally exhausted.

However, Patchouli's thirst for knowledge overwhelmed her concern for her apprentice. She wanted to know what magical effects this new element could have.

Lin Zhenxi was actually very willing to cooperate with Professor Patchouli to study her "string" elements. She was a super awesome magic research academic leader, and she led her in research, and the final results were Lin Zhenxi's own. Is there anything more dreamy than this?

This was Lin Zhenxi's first attempt at summoning her own innate element, so it was bound to be a memorable one. But innate elements were innate elements, and when Lin Zhenxi manipulated them, she didn't feel the unfamiliar feeling of first contact. With a thought, the air in her palm began to twist.

Twist, wriggle, tremble, wrinkle...

Lin Zhenxi was silent for a moment, then exerted force once more. The air in her hand distorted even more, transforming into a blurry mass in her palm that was impossible to see through.

But other than that, no other abnormal situations occurred.

Lin Zhenxi looked helplessly at Teacher Patchouli, wanting to get some analysis and help from a professional.

At this moment, Patchouli produced a pair of narrow-rimmed glasses from nowhere, untied the legs, and put them on her face. She was already a quiet beauty with a strong bookish air, and now with the glasses, her temperament suddenly rose to a new level.

If you change into JK and pigtails, it will poke Lin Zhenxi's xp even more

"Maki, concentrate, I'm observing." Teacher Patchouli has entered the research state and did not notice Lin Maki's distracted mind at all. She focused all her attention on the "string" element in Lin Maki's hand.

After being reminded by Patchouli, Lin Zhenxi immediately stopped her wandering thoughts and focused her energy on gathering the "string" element. The distortion that had been gradually calming down became agitated again under Lin Zhenxi's stimulation.

Patchouli leaned in closer, concentrating on observing the ball of "string" elements in Lin Zhenxi's palm. She unconsciously closed the distance between her and Lin Zhenxi, almost face to face. Then Lin Zhenxi tilted her head to stare at Patchouli's profile, enjoying her teacher's stunning beauty.

What ingredients are used to create the vanilla scent on Teacher Patchouli? It smells so good.

Perhaps it was because Lin Zhenxi's gaze was too fiery that Teacher Patchouli finally noticed it. She turned her head and a look of embarrassment flashed across her beautiful bright purple pupils behind her glasses, but she quickly suppressed it.

She took two steps back, keeping an arm's length away from Lin Zhenxi, then picked up a thick book at hand and hit Lin Zhenxi on the head.

"You are not allowed to have any fantasies about the teacher. H is forbidden."

"Hehehe, but teacher, you are very beautiful. It would be too much to ask you not to let me see you." Lin Zhenxi covered her head and responded casually with a silly smile.

Teacher Patchouli sighed and said nothing more. She didn't know what to say. Correcting a student's sexual orientation wasn't part of her teaching. She also knew that Lin Zhenxi was just obsessed with looks, not really gay, at least not yet.

But she already has a tendency to turn in that direction. If she deliberately suppresses it at this time, it may have the opposite effect and make Lin Zhenxi completely become a girl who likes girls.

Forget it, let it be. Just don’t put your hands on me, Teacher Patchouli thought a little irresponsibly.
