Chapter 221 Part 2
byChapter 221 Part 2: The High Paper Defense of Charlotte, the Original Material, Pure White Authority (2)
The Last Diva finished speaking and covered her face with both hands. She wondered why she changed her mind halfway through; she originally wanted to play a trick on Little Qing for a week to get back at her for being so straightforward today.
But strangely… she found herself even more excited for this meeting than the other person.
Charlotte couldn’t help but start to doubt that this connection was not just a team connection; her head felt dizzy, and she even began to think that three days was too long.
Could it be that I’ve fallen in love with Chu Yuanqing at first sight? But they haven’t even met yet!
Chu Yuanqing didn’t know about the troubles with Miss Saintess. After hearing about the three days, her adorable little face nodded seriously, showing an eager smile as she softly replied:
"Okay, I’ll wait for you."
Charlotte quickly responded:
"Yes, yes, let’s leave it at that for today."
"Little Qing, remember to go to bed early, goodnight!"
After that,
The Pure White Witch heard the sound of the phone hanging up. The smile on her lips grew wider as she found Charlotte to be so fresh and adorable.
Perhaps it was because her memory hadn’t fully returned, feeling a bit shy, and since their relationship was not as familiar as before, the usually skillful Ms. Charlotte, who always had the upper hand in teasing and teasing others, was currently in a stage of being like a fragile glass cannon, with high attack but weak defense.
Chu Yuanqing felt that she must cherish the current Charlotte.
After all, with The Last Diva’s personality, even if Charlotte doesn’t regain her memory, if they become closer and more familiar, their previous conversations would flip completely.
But overall, today has seen groundbreaking progress.
Chu Yuanqing was in a good mood; in just three or four days, she would see this era’s Charlotte with her own eyes. She wondered what Little Shu would think when she met her.
Sigh, if she doesn’t explain things clearly, her lovely daughter might imagine Charlotte as her sister, no matter how creative she is, right?
Chu Yuanqing felt a bit of a headache; for Little Shu to recognize her as Mommy, she needed to meet two conditions.
First, Charlotte’s memory must recover to a certain extent and accept this cute daughter, whom she hasn’t seen for 17 years and is the same age.
Second, she must first be honest with her adorable daughter, at least explain the situation about correcting the timeline, and make her believe it, so the child can accept that she has a mother of the same age.
Both of these were incredibly challenging tasks, and with just over a month left of their travel time, she wondered if she could manage to do both.
Chu Yuanqing was thinking about her plan. She couldn’t decide if Charlotte’s memory would come back, just like how there was no news from her little idol, Liuli. But it was fine to talk to her daughter.
Well, how should she talk about it? If she went straight to the point, she would be seen as a "poor father under too much work pressure, leading to a nervous breakdown and hysteria." So she at least needed to show some supernatural power.
But…
Her lovely daughter already knew about magical girls. She might think, "My father is under too much work pressure, so he awakened magic and started having hysteria," so just showing supernatural power might not be enough.
At this moment,
The Pure White Witch felt a bit dramatic. It seemed she really had no way to make her daughter believe her?
She couldn’t just appear in her true form and tell her the truth, could she? Then how could she normally talk to her daughter on the show? She would surely be called a pervert, a scumbag, a sex maniac, and a middle-aged man who deceived a little idol’s feelings!
Just thinking about that possibility made the girl’s heart ache and feel sad. Her eyes drooped in disappointment, her eyelashes hung down, staring at the pebbles kicked away by her toes, her focus began to blur.
"Sigh, I’ll think about it slowly back at the hotel."
Chu Yuanqing sighed. Her current identity and clear life path online were hard for Little Shu to believe, and it was almost impossible to explain.
The night view of Vienna and the evening breeze seemed to lose their charm after saying goodnight to Charlotte.
Chu Yuanqing did not stop by the riverbank and returned to Sah Hotel before 11:30. She glanced nervously at the closed rooms of the little idols, instinctively lightened her footsteps, and quietly entered her own room, feeling relieved. Without thinking, she unbuttoned her clothes and took them off.
The Pure White Witch did not hesitate to show the most enchanting sights of late summer to the air. She placed her outerwear, innerwear, and the short socks she just took off into the laundry basket, planning to put them in the room’s washing machine later. Then, she walked barefoot into the bathroom without wearing slippers.
Taking a shower is always a joyful thing.
Chu Yuanqing was in a good mood today, so she did not rush through her shower. She took off the Lantern Gem and swan necklace and placed them by the bathtub. After putting the bath product in and waiting for the foam to fill the tub, she lazily soaked in the warm water.
Splash, splash.
Some water splashed out, falling onto the wall.
The girl returned to her original appearance of white hair and golden eyes. She drooped her eyelids, sleepily closed her eyes, and felt the warmth of the hot water embracing her. She savored the drowsiness that gradually rose with the steam, humming softly the melody of "das beste," a smile forming on her lips.
About five minutes later,
Chu Yuanqing placed the little yellow rubber duck that Liuli gave her and the toy crab from the golden retriever onto the surface of the bath water. Both were strongly requested by her to bring along, saying that they made bath time more fun and were the perfect toys for college students.
Of course, Chu Yuanqing wasn’t that childish, but since she had already brought them, it would be a shame not to use them while soaking in the bath. She turned on the crab’s switch and watched as it started to spin in place and blow bubbles, poking the poor little yellow duck nearby with its claws, and she actually found it quite amusing.
It’s worth mentioning that the crab toy’s background music is a song that Xie Qingxuan recorded herself.
To be honest, there’s no place to buy such things at the base, and Chen Xiaoxiao, the older sister who works part-time as a life assistant, wouldn’t fulfill the players’ silly requests.
So like the little yellow duck from Liuli, this toy could only be Xie Qingxuan’s personal bath toy.
And since this child went out of her way to record her voice in it, she must really like this silly-looking thing, so it’s no wonder she insisted on bringing it.
All I can say is…
The golden retriever surprisingly has a childlike spirit.
Chu Yuanqing watched as the toy crab bullied the little yellow duck that couldn’t sing for a while, then fairly separated the two little things, not allowing them to fight any longer. She took out her waterproof phone, opened the Dreamweaver app, and began to explore the magical library.
Although she looked at some things this morning, she only learned about one water dragon and hadn’t closely examined other information yet.
Chu Yuanqing believed that Esther and the other witches’ understanding of magic definitely had some reference value for her, who knew only a little.
First, the other party agreed that magic is a product of the mind and acknowledged that the essence of magical girls comes from wishes. They provided a series of monitored calculations using high-precision instruments, which involved the highest-level technology humanity has today—Ether.
The so-called Ether is actually the original substance created when magical power is purified.
This substance is hard for even witches to extract and was first discovered in Light Stone, which is the material for Artificial Lanterns.
In other words, in the eyes of officials, Light Stone is not just about creating witches; it is truly a strategic resource that can determine the future development of humanity and even the survival of life and death.
Ether Tech is the system officially researched, while the witch system is merely a branch that is the most extensive and has the greatest hope of saving the world.
That Ether Satellite high in the sky—Fuxi—is one of the research results.
Of course, currently, it seems very rough. The existence of [Fuxi] is merely a forced combination of existing technology and ether, imitating the plan of God’s staff, giving the official a sword of Damocles to deal with disaster beasts.
However, in terms of power, it is not much stronger than conventional kinetic weapons; it can only be used specifically against tough enemies like nightmarish creatures that are immune to physical attacks and only respond to mental magic.
Chu Yuanqing continued to read about magic, while Esther believed that due to the common knowledge, understanding, education, and imagination of humans, even various forms of magic born from the mind have limitations and can be roughly categorized through quantification.
Currently, they can roughly be divided into six major categories: elements, spirits, concepts, rules, space-time, and life.
Furthermore, the types of spells that a [witch] can learn also have limitations, which depend on the nature of their magical power, specifically the "Fully Blooming" stage.
In simple terms, choosing the Flower of the Soul and expressing the flower’s meaning signifies that a wish begins to take shape, and the mental power officially sets its direction, ending the infinite possibilities and directing the quantum state of magic to a specific nature.
This nature will officially determine what kind of magic a [witch] can learn.
Esther notes here that, so far, no [witch] has been able to adapt to all categories; the vast majority can only be limited to one type, and about ninety percent are of the elemental type.
A [witch] who can learn 2 to 3 types is already extremely rare; hardly any have existed in the past ten years.
Well, besides showing her sincerity, this is the main reason why she would be so generous and let Chu Yuanqing explore all the various spells. She wanted to measure how many types of spells this "Lighthouse" could learn and further assess her true talent.
Chu Yuanqing looked at the last page of notes on magic classifications and then glanced at the magical power in her hands, shining like moonlight. Sometimes it was tinged with a fiery heart, turning into red-black flames, and at other times, it radiated a soft glow, fading into pure white. She murmured in realization:
"Only the ether that is restored from the breakdown of magical power can match all types of spells."
"Does that ether refer to the Pure White Authority?"
