Chapter 2045 - 1036: Academic Ace in Action (2)
"Lady Witch is watching me, I have to get good grades in this exam."
"A handwritten signature from Lady Witch? Oh my God, this is priceless, I want it, nobody else better try to take it from me."
....
For a moment, the crowd erupted into cheers and shouts, and the scene almost got out of control.
Looking at the cheering crowd, Dorothy just shrugged.
Actually, she didn’t quite understand why these genius interns would place their expectations on idols, becoming so serious upon hearing that the Witch of the Forest is the examiner.
In the view of the homebody witch, learning is just a way to improve oneself and please oneself; she learns simply because she enjoys the feeling of gradually getting stronger, she’s learning for herself.
But these genius interns, however, seem to be learning to please others or to prove themselves to others.
Well, never mind, everyone has their own ambitions. Although she doesn’t fully understand, she doesn’t intend to impose her viewpoint on others.
Dorothy just sighed that the title of the Witch of the Forest isn’t always a hassle, sometimes it’s actually quite handy, like now.
Thinking this through, the homebody witch put the puppet dragon on a table and then walked into the workshop behind her along with her sisters.
Inside the workshop, Noelle Rose, Sitle, and Estelle were already waiting for her.
She still had a bunch of warship design drafts to draw.
Apart from her, other sisters were also performing their respective duties.
Sophia was coordinating the various tasks for all workshops participating in the ship-building operation, while Mia was busy allocating and supplying various materials.
Audrey was attending classes while mobilizing the numerous opera houses of the House of Aphrodite, starting to promote the ship-building enterprise of Stars Industry, laying the groundwork for the formal operation of the workshop in the future.
Madeline and Alice had already started training the members of the Armed Society in the security department.
Well, everyone in the Armed Society didn’t follow the process of recommended internship letters from the academy but was directly accepted by the Succubus Witch. They had actually come to report a long time ago and been in special training for a while already.
As for who their special training instructors were...
Well, currently the formal security work for Stars Industry is actually managed by Japan, with the Japan Guard Bureau and Hyakki Witch taking turns on duty, alternating day and night.
Meanwhile, these Japanese witches also sent people to become instructors for the newcomers.
Although the magic level of the Japanese witches isn’t quite as high as these excellent graduates, after all, this side has received the complete systematic education from Witch Academy, knowing much more than the stray path Japanese witches.
However, when it comes to actual combat and life-or-death battles, whether it’s the Guard Bureau witches or the Hyakki witches, they’re completely overwhelming this group of fresh recruits.
After all, Japan has just ended a long internal turmoil; the Armed Witches who managed to survive till now are renowned combat veterans, their combat experience isn’t something these freshly graduated students can match.
So them being instructors for the recruits is actually more than adequate.
Moreover, this isn’t just them teaching newbies; it’s more like a two-way exchange after all. Japan has just emerged, and the Japanese witches need to better communicate with the outside world and update their outdated magic system.
And these newly graduated witch students are actually the best teachers for the Japanese witches.
Anyway, in an open-air arena not far from the warship workshop, the special training for recruits was in full swing.
Well, there’s no choice, because while the Guard Bureau witches are somewhat educated and can train normally, pretty much nine out of ten Hyakki witches are illiterate, so their training is directly intense combat, filled with various practical training.
Moreover, in the past, the Japanese witches believed that people couldn’t resurrect from death, but today witnessing the arena where you can resurrect infinitely, they were amazed and exclaimed about the divine skill.
In essence, soon everyone got busy with their own tasks, leaving only the interns at the gate staring at each other.
No way, is this it? Is nobody supervising us? Aren’t they afraid we’ll cheat on the exam?
They looked at each other in confusion.
Well, it’s not that no one is supervising them, the puppet dragon marionette of the Witch of the Forest is still over there watching.
Everyone carefully watched that cute puppet dragon, but noticed it kept standing still as if it was just a regular puppet.
Finally, someone gathered the courage to step forward and tried to reach out and touch the long-admired idol.
But just when the witch’s hand was about to touch the puppet dragon’s face, the little marionette disappeared and reappeared not far away.
"Christina, do you have a question you need to ask?"
The dragon puppet inquired.
Actually, Dorothy was quite speechless, she didn’t expect this new student council president—oh, now also former president—anyway, this primeval witch was a bit cheeky, daring to tease the examiner.
After being called out, Christina sheepishly withdrew her hand, but she felt a little thrilled inside.
Wow, the Witch of the Forest actually knows my name.
"Ahem, I just wanted to ask whether there are any taboos we should avoid in the upcoming exam."
The primeval witch coughed a few times and found an excuse to explain.
"No, you can form teams freely and play as you wish. If you have nothing to do, I suggest you take a stroll and familiarize yourself with the future workplace environment."
Moon Goddess Dorothy patiently replied.
But then she added.
"Well, Miss Christina, you and your team have two more opportunities to ask questions. Do you have anything else to inquire about?"
Primeval Witch:"....."
Damn, does this count as one opportunity?
Christina quickly closed her mouth and turned around to run without saying or asking anything, fearing to waste another chance.
After all, she was also eager for that signature and mentorship opportunity from the Witch of the Forest offered to the top three.
With her demonstration, the other interns didn’t dare to bother the examiner anymore, and thanks to the chairman using one of her question opportunities to benefit everyone, at least now they knew what to do.
Thus, soon, these several hundred people scattered, either forming teams of threes and fours, or exploring the new environment, some were more serious and began studying the warship design drafts.
"Christina, do you want to team up with us?"
The primeval witch was just about to wander around when she heard someone calling her from behind.
Turning around, she saw Dina and Agnes coming together.
Indeed, the culprit trio behind this internship plan had reunited.
"Uh, if you don’t mind teaming up with me despite having one fewer question opportunity, I’d be happy to."
Christina responded with a smile.
Maybe it’s because all their names end with ’na’, the three always had a good relationship, not quite besties but definitely friends.
"Of course, we don’t mind."
Loli Club President of the Silver Key, Dwarf Witch Agnes nodded generously to indicate.
"Besides, the question wasn’t wasted; at least now we know what to do, right?"
President of the Eye of True Sight, the elegant and intellectual Elf Witch Dina also smiled and said.
Thus, the Top Students Alliance was formed.
Of course, the team members weren’t just three; in fact, each of them was accompanied by some club sisters, about fifty to sixty people in total, making it quite a large team.
"So, do you have any plans for what to do next?"
Dina asked.
In response, Christina blinked and saw the troubled little witch doing homework by the edge of the security department arena.
"No worries, I have an acquaintance. I’ll go gather some intel first."
The Elemental Empress smiled.
....Examination in progress....
