"Sister, how could you think it was okay to buy all this junk?"

Having spent only a third of the usual price to buy this ruin, Dorothy knew she had made a lucrative deal, but to those unaware of its value, like Alice who was currently staring at her wide-eyed, she seemed foolish.

Although the little witch had long known about her sister's strange obsession with buying houses and her continuous saving up for one, she had never imagined her sister would spend most of her savings on such trash.

Instead of directly answering, Dorothy casually picked up a piece of magic-resistant brick from the ground and placed it in her sister's hand.

"My foolish little one, you should read more if you're naive. Go check out what this is."

"Um..."

Alice looked at the seemingly ordinary brick in her hand, scratched her head, and her face was full of question marks.

However, after Senior Mia took a closer look at the brick for a few moments, her expression changed dramatically as she too picked up a piece and magic power surged from her hands.

When she found that the magic power couldn't penetrate the stone brick, her expression grew serious, and she turned to look at Dorothy.

"Little Fairy, this is a bit too risky, picking this up is not trivial."

As the future heir of a well-known wealthy witch family in the Witch World, Senior Mia was experienced and knowledgeable. Initially, she didn't think much of it, but after Dorothy brought it up, she recognized the exceptional quality of these building materials. Coupling this with the completely ignorant demeanor of Lady Tennyson, she also sensed something fishy.

She suddenly felt that the Little Fairy must have been blinded by greed and dazzled by money; otherwise, knowing it was a trap, why would she jump right in?

"Don't worry, Senior, I know what I'm doing. I really shouldn't be picking this up myself, but I have someone backing me up. Why pass up something good that's been handed to me on a silver platter?"

Unfazed by the concern of her senior, Dorothy, who had already obtained immunity, said with a laugh.

"Oh... okay then... no problem."

After hearing this response, Senior Mia was initially startled, but then she realized.

Indeed, if Dorothy had been just an ordinary little witch, this would indeed have been stepping into a trap, like a little raft caught in an unknown whirlpool, ready to wreck at any moment.

But what if it were a massive ocean liner? Then the poor little whirlpool would likely be crushed outright.

This Little Fairy was not just any witch without connections; even her Peak Witch mother was currently accompanying her at the academy. If someone really sought trouble with her, they would be truly unfortunate.

Thinking of how she had been gruesomely drilled by the Devil Coach these past days, Mia shivered fiercely.

Just the thought of how hard the training was under normal circumstances made her dread to think what would happen if Teacher Euphilia really lost her temper.

Well, let's mourn in advance for that unknown unfortunate soul.

"Alright then, as long as you know what you're doing. I will report this case directly to the School Committee later; this is beyond what the Enforcement Team can handle now."

Senior Mia nodded and said.

"Good, that's the best. Thanks for taking care of it, Senior."

Dorothy naturally agreed, as she had originally intended for Alice to report it, but since Senior Mia had taken on this task voluntarily, that was even better. After all, given her status as the Golden Princess, her words would carry more weight and likely draw more attention from the School Committee.

With that, the matter was virtually settled, except...

"Do you need me to find someone to help you fix it up? It's not fit for living in its current state."

After discussing official matters, Senior Mia looked at the ruins of the sky island and asked.

"Senior, you must have forgotten what my major is. There's no need to hire anyone, I can do it myself."

Dorothy reminded her somewhat speechlessly.

"Ah, sorry, sorry, you really study a mixed bag of things, I forgot for a moment that you're actually a freshman in civil engineering."

To this, Senior Mia also apologized with a face full of regret.

But you really can't blame her, considering the things that the Little Fairy has done since enrolling were not something a normal civil engineering witch would do.

This stereotype had already formed, and it was quite difficult to change momentarily. Moreover, who would have thought that the famously pampered princess of the entire school was actually from the Civil Engineering Series? If you randomly tell any witch on the street this, see if they believe it.

Her knowledge clearly points to cutting-edge research, and her combat skills indicate she could expand territories. Yet, this perfectly skilled witch ended up carrying bricks and mixing cement on the construction site. What kind of joke is this?

And regarding the apology from her senior, which seemed sincere but actually showed no respect for her civil engineering career, the homebody witch couldn't help but shiver with indignation.

Hmph, wait until my real estate business is hugely successful, I'll definitely let you guys who look down on civil engineering witches see what financial power means.

However, just when she was halfway through shivering angrily, Dorothy suddenly remembered that Senior Mia's family was in charge of the currency authority in the Witch World.

Emmmm...it seems even if my real estate succeeds, I can't surpass that. Never mind then.

Darn it, Senior Mia, I have to admit, you are indeed richer.

"Okay, stop being mad. Since you're preparing to do it yourself, to show my apology, I'll give you a batch of construction materials. I remember there's a Giant Dragon Market nearby, let's go check it out together," said Senior Mia clapping her hands.

Dorothy, who didn't like owing others, instinctively wanted to refuse, but the senior immediately stretched out a finger to touch her lips.

"This sky island will be used as a clubhouse in the future, and as a member of the club, it's normal for me to contribute. This is fair, so you don't need to refuse."

Hearing her senior say this, Dorothy didn't have much to say and just nodded.

"Alright, then I'll listen to you, Senior."

And so, a group of four set off towards the Giant Dragon Market.

On the way, Alice, who had been studying a brick throughout the journey, finally found the information about magic-resistant bricks on the Magic Network, and seeing the price, the little witch was shocked on the spot.

Thinking about the sky island covered in these bricks...

Ah, I turned out to be the clown myself.

I'm sorry, sister, I was too arrogant, even daring to question your decisions. Sister yyds (You're Your Darn Self).

The little witch reflected internally, further affirming her belief to always trust her sister.

As for Audrey...

The Fox Witch had completely eliminated her presence, quietly following behind her senior while enjoying the World Tree juice she had packed earlier.

....socially anxious Little Fox Akari in the middle....
