Otaku Witch

However, the Homebody Witch also noticed that although there were beauty attendants, there were differences among the beauties. For instance, the beauty serving her at the moment was clearly three times more enchanting than the others'.

This was a beauty whose looks reached the level of a nation-toppling beauty, while the ones around others were only one level lower in terms of extreme beauty.

Although Dorothy was never short of beauties around her, today's scene still gave her the illusion that beauties seemed to have become worthless.

Emmmm... Miss, did you choose the wrong person to serve? I'm just a passerby here for free food and drinks; you should be serving my Aunt Miko instead.

The Homebody Witch looked at the maid beside her with some curiosity and a bit of confusion in her heart.

In fact, she wasn't the only one puzzled; many guests were secretly observing her, also guessing why this little witch dressed like a seductress received such an honor.

It must be noted that these maids at the moment weren't ordinary courtesans. They were called "Kimono Sleeve Maidens," meticulously trained by Ibuki Taiyu over the years.

Which meant that all of them might be future Oiran.

Of course, these "Kimono Sleeve Maidens" could only say the future looks promising for now. Whether they truly become Oiran in the end still depends on fate.

But as the most beautiful among this batch of "Kimono Sleeve Maidens," the girl named "Red Shadow" was evidently the one with the highest potential for promotion.

Thus, Red Shadow's choice of whom to serve largely represented the inclinations of Ibuki Taiyu. At the very least, that person should be the one Miss Ibuki found most pleasing to the eye in the entire venue.

The foreign Homebody Witch was unaware of these nuances, but the local witches from Japan were well-informed. Therefore, as soon as the event began, Dorothy immediately became the center of attention.

"Hehe, it seems, Rosie, you might be disappointed this time. Your good wife might become a disciple's wife instead."

As the most esteemed person in the venue, Yae Miko wasn't angry that Red Shadow didn't choose her. She just laughed coquettishly, teasing her old classmate while explaining the unwritten rules to the utterly confused Dorothy.

Homebody Witch: "....."

Dorothy was also confused; she really hadn't done anything. Why did that Miss Oiran look at her differently? It couldn't possibly be because I called her old during the day, could it?

However, she then frowned and looked at the equally expressionless maid beside her, then asked.

"Miss, are you a person or a sword?"

Upon hearing this question, the girl named Red Shadow finally showed some expression. She slightly widened her eyes and then nodded.

"A sword, and also a person."

The girl's voice was very cold, like the edge of a famous sword, full of chill.

At this moment, beside the main seat where Miss Oiran sat, two identical little girls stepped out.

These were the two "bald" ones from the previous Oiran Parade.

"Greetings, guests. I am Amber."

"Greetings, guests. I am Colored Glaze."

The two first bowed respectfully to the guests, introducing themselves.

Then they jointly opened a long scroll, tossing it downward.

The scroll unfurled on its own, revealing the words written inside.

"This is Lord Ibuki's first trial, testing your martial prowess."

The twin girls spoke in unison.

Everyone looked at the scroll and clearly saw the beautifully written three characters on it.

"Demon Blade Test."

The guests were a bit puzzled by this, but Dorothy instantly understood. She turned her gaze back to the maid kneeling in front of her, with a slight glimmer of interest in her eyes.

...Homebody Witch readying herself inquisitively...
