The Witch's Imaginary Land: Redemption Comes After Sticking Together

Author: Pan Xiaoyuan

Introduction:

He was transported to a world where everyone was a witch, but was accused of a heinous crime.

Jiang Kehan ​​decided to endure the humiliation and wait for the right moment to exact revenge.

But why...did it get heavy again?!

"Sisters, let's talk this out. Put down the machete, or I'll kneel down in a spectacular fashion!"

Jiang Kehan, drenched in sweat, said this.

[Serious version: Arriving hastily in an unknown world, I was suddenly branded with a crime, and if I don't atone for it, I'll face permanent imprisonment?]

Jiang Kehan ​​originally intended to defy fate, but instead, she came into contact with a series of lovers for whom she was willing to give her heart.

And gradually, I came to understand—what a witch truly is!

Bonus Chapter: An Unlucky Day (Bonus Chapter: Qingxue)

"Tick-tock"

The giant, slightly futuristic hourglass emitted a soft, continuous sound, and the falling water droplets, controlled by a special force field, created a soothing rhythm.

Qingxue, who was lying paralyzed on the waterbed, adorably twitched her nose and rolled over, blanket in hand.

It must be said that witches certainly have a lot to say when it comes to enjoying life.

But soon, the preset time was up, and the originally gentle descent suddenly turned into a torrent, rushing and crashing inside the hourglass, making a "whooshing" noise, which gradually brought her back to her senses.

Qingxue rubbed her eyes sleepily. She didn't have the habit of sleeping in late. Her alchemy training since childhood had made her exceptionally sensitive to time. However, she had stayed up very late yesterday, which made her a little groggy.

However, she seemed to have forgotten that the "large can of food" she had stayed up all night to finish was still by her bedside.

As she stretched as usual, her delicate toes inevitably made intimate contact with the other person.

"hiss!"

Tears welled up in Qingxue's eyes. She rolled around on the waterbed, hugging her toes and blowing air into her little feet. She was now fully awake.

"Ouch, it hurts, it hurts so much!"

Her little face puffed out, and she felt as if a huge word of 'misfortune' was written on her brow, and she kept gasping for breath.

You know, witches are usually pretty grumpy when they wake up, so she used all her strength to soothe her back, and that "big can" itself was very hard, so you can imagine how painful it was.

"No, it's my work!"

After catching her breath, Qingxue looked at her slightly red toes and suddenly remembered why she had stayed up all night the night before. She hurriedly got out of bed to check.

The "large can" looked like it was cast in brass, with various colored paints woven into different patterns. The lid came loose from the impact, and a lot of blue smoke billowed out, making Qingxue's face fall.

"No, how could you put something so important by your bedside?"

Qingxue was on the verge of tears. She patted her face, opened the can lid completely, and let the smoke inside dissipate.

"Now that's bad, it'll take another few hours to refine the Ghost Breath."

While the Breath of the Ghost has other difficulties, the most troublesome thing is that it requires constant monitoring because it has quantum properties and needs to be preserved with specific equipment.

If left unattended for more than 30 seconds under natural conditions, it will spoil and lose all its effectiveness.

It was obvious that Qingxue had been rolling around and blowing air for more than 30 seconds, but that wasn't the worst part. The worst part was that this was homework given to her by her teacher.

It's like finishing your paper to your heart's content, carelessly shutting down your computer, and then suddenly realizing you haven't saved it!

However, it's normal for alchemy to have unexpected problems from time to time. Qingxue's resilience was already maxed out, and seeing the somewhat messy bedroom, she obediently started tidying up.

"Qingxue, are you still not up? I've already made breakfast."

The mother's voice came from outside the door, tinged with surprise and a hint of probing.

"Did something happen? You're usually very punctual."

Qingxue shrank back helplessly, and said with a hint of grievance, "It's nothing, I just spilled my homework, I'll be right there!"

Upon hearing this, Qingran outside the door smiled knowingly, but still placed the breakfast outside the door and thoughtfully cast a heat-keeping spell.

"Breakfast is out, remember to eat! If you need my help, feel free to ask anytime, I'm quite free lately."

I'm not a child anymore!

Qingxue really wanted to tell her mother this, but she scratched her head, feeling unable to say it. After all, she was not only socially awkward outside, but also not good at communicating with her family.

"OK, all right."

Forget it, I should finish my homework first. We can talk about these things later.

After Qingxue waited until her mother's footsteps disappeared, she opened the door and brought in breakfast, which was a large roast chicken and a glass of lime juice.

But why are there lollipops? I don't like them anymore!

Qingxue, with a lollipop in her mouth, offered a somewhat unconvincing remark.

She used to like eating candy because alchemy requires concentration and consumes a lot of energy. She preferred special lollipops with stimulant and concentration-enhancing agents to bland potions, which led both of her mothers to mistakenly believe that she liked candy and would often tease her with candy.

Now, she picks up a lollipop and immediately gets into work mode; it's become an instinct ingrained in her bones. Looking at her favorite food, she sighs silently.

Well, now I'll have to eat breakfast for lunch. Anyway, let's get to work!

Once she got into the zone, Qingxue was very focused on alchemy, and several hours passed by in the blink of an eye. Looking at the Ghostly Breath that had been resealed, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally, I can hand in my assignment. I'll go to the college right after dinner to hand it in, otherwise it'll be too much of a hassle."

She had already developed a resistance to refining the Breath of the Ghost and really didn't want to be able to refine it again in a short period of time.

Soon, everything was ready. Qingxue got dressed, put the "big can" into her spatial bracelet, and headed towards the academy.

However, just as she was about to arrive at the academy, she was suddenly called back.

"Hello, could you take me to the Witch Academy? I didn't bring a broom!"

Qingxue subconsciously remained vigilant and looked at the other person. Her first impression was, "What a beautiful witch!" Her second impression was, "So short!"

However, she quickly returned to normal, becoming even more wary. Such a beautiful witch would actually greet a strange witch; it must be true!

This is the socially anxious woman's nemesis: the social cow!

So Qingxue tilted her head slightly to look at the beautiful witch who had asked for help, looked around, and finally hesitated before speaking up after confirming that she was the only one there.

"Are you talking to me?"

She hoped it was just a misunderstanding, she prayed silently, after all, she suddenly realized that she had become so socially anxious that she didn't know how to say no.

I feel so sorry for myself for having no social experience all these years, sob sob.

Qingxue suddenly felt a little sad, staring at the person in front of her with dead fish eyes.

"Hello, I'm Jiang Kehan ​​from the second grade. I hope to get your help."

Qingxue didn't know how to answer, so she tried her best to make her eyes look fierce and not to be trifled with. She stared at Jiang Kehan ​​for a few minutes, trying to defeat her with her eyes and make her leave, but Jiang Kehan ​​was still smiling, which made Qingxue lose first.

What a boundless witch! How annoying! Silently writing Jiang Kehan's name down in her little notebook, Qingxue gave in.

"Hello, I'm Qingxue from the first grade. Come on up." Qingxue pulled her witch's hat down, trying to hide her expression from Jiang Kehan, while muttering in a voice Jiang Kehan ​​couldn't hear, "Clumsy."

Jiang Kehan ​​didn't notice anything amiss. She scratched her cheek with her finger, chose to sit at a certain distance from the other person, and then cautiously asked them a question.

"Shall we set off?"

Wicked witch, I'll be free once I get you to the academy. Of course, the sooner we set off, the better!

So she didn't say anything, but instead picked up the broom and flew into the sky, and soon delivered Jiang Kehan ​​to the academy.

Before Qingxue could run away after sweeping, Jiang Kehan ​​grabbed her collar, took out a bag from her bosom, and, to Qingxue's surprise, took out a bracelet made of several different fresh flowers, with colorful scales strung on it.

What a pretty little thing! Wait, why won't you let me leave? You think I'll cry?

Thinking about her bad luck since morning, Qingxue couldn't hold back anymore. Her eyes, hidden under the brim of her hat, looked somewhat resigned as she glared at Jiang Kehan.

"Here, please accept this little bracelet as a token of my gratitude." Jiang Kehan ​​looked at Qingxue expectantly, her eyes seemingly shining.

Qingxue looked into the other person's eyes and suddenly froze. Huh?!

Is this a gift for me? I haven't received any gifts from anyone other than my mother and teachers.

I really want to, but the other person is a troublesome witch, and I don't really want her to get close to me.

But thinking that she was already grown up, Qingxue steeled her heart, turned her head away, and took the little bracelet.

It's just a gift, right? It's just a cow, right? I can handle it myself! There's nothing to be afraid of!

So Qingxue hummed, not daring to meet Jiang Kehan's gaze, and spoke while keeping her face turned to the side.

"Don't forget to bring a broom next time, or I won't see you again." With that, she flew away, leaving Jiang Kehan ​​standing there with a bitter smile.

However, Qingxue did not actually fly away. She deliberately stayed out of Jiang Kehan's sight and quietly looked at the apology on the other's face, and suddenly felt a little soft-hearted.

Forget it, I'm not going to argue with a reckless person. I'll just take you out of your little notebook.

I don't know what she was thinking, but she carefully wiped the bracelet with her sleeve, put it on her wrist, and seemed a little lost in thought.

Is this the first gift I've ever received from a friend?

Qingxue didn't want to admit that she was actually very happy, but thinking about her behavior just now, she puffed out her cheeks and said, "You reckless fool."

She didn't know who she was talking about, but she regretted being too harsh earlier.

Once Jiang Kehan ​​had completely disappeared from her sight, Qingxue slowly turned the broom around and flew towards the classroom.

However, watching the teacher use her homework as a standard teaching material to give instructions to other students was clearly a happy thing.

Why do you want me to refine the Ghost Breath again on the spot?

I hate the breath of the ghost, I hate bad luck, and Qingxue is completely numb from stirring the ingredients.

Ugh, what a terrible day for me.

The timeframe is after they started living together, but before Jiang Kehan ​​met Bo Yuxue.

As evening approached, Jiang Kehan ​​put down the Alchemist's Law, lay flat on the bed, and made a comfortable sound.

"Hmm, I've worked hard today too, sigh."
