Otaku Witch

Chapter 2067 - 1047: The Blooming Teacher

Following Dorothy’s words, the entire conference room fell silent, with everyone looking at the homebody witch with a peculiar expression, as if seeing a fool.

But it’s not really everyone’s fault for reacting this way, it’s just that the homebody witch’s approach is so bewildering that no one knows how to respond, it sounds so amateurish it’s laughable.

Come on, my dear lady, even for mortals to build a slightly larger ship, the design and preparation takes months, and the construction years, not to mention we’re talking about building a Witch Battleship.

Do you even understand what a Witch Battleship is? It’s one of the Alchemy School’s finest creations, the ultimate weapon with which witches can roam the Western Universe undefeated. You think you can just bang on the table and start building without any preparation?

Even for a standard warship, you couldn’t be so reckless, let alone for this time when they’re building the warship of warships, a masterpiece worthy to ascend to the Legendary Battleship status, requiring utmost caution and meticulous care.

According to the normal legendary ship construction process, just the project initiation and preliminary preparation time is counted in years.

As for the complete construction period after officially starting work, that’s even more lengthy, usually a hundred years at best, a thousand at worst.

Don’t complain about the slow pace, after all, have you ever heard of a divine artifact being crafted in a snap? You have to follow the procedure, even the material smelting alone requires seventy-seven years or so.

That’s with the witches’ superior alchemy, if it were in the human world, it might take four hundred and ninety years instead.

In short, slow work takes careful endeavor; legendary equipment requires time to be meticulously crafted, and can’t be rushed.

Unless...

Hmm, unless you call upon a Sage Level icon, those icons can mold divine artifacts with bare hands, they can transform even handfuls of dirt into divine weapons that mortals would fight over.

But sages are evidently hardly achievable, who can summon sages to be your laborers?

So, if not for the young lady being known as a notorious tough cookie, and everyone having some understanding of her recently, knowing that this young witch has genuine talent and knowledge, otherwise everyone couldn’t help but laugh.

"Pfft....."

Oh, someone has already laughed aloud.

The crowd holding back laughter quickly turned in the direction of the sound, wanting to see who was so bold, not fearing the Clown Grand Inquisitor’s wrath.

But after seeing the figure, everyone could only pretend nothing happened.

After all, it was Noelle Rose laughing, she’s the young lady’s teacher, even if the young lady is tough, she can’t actually raid her teacher’s place, unless she wants to raid her own.

Since everyone knows the extraordinarily talented Spider Witch is a loner, her legacy is destined to be inherited by her apprentice, and that’s a joke.

"Teacher, why do you laugh."

The energetic Dorothy also looked speechlessly at her own teacher.

She naturally knew her decision might seem outrageous to others, she was prepared to face opposition, but she truly didn’t expect the first to undermine her would be Spider Teacher.

"Uh, Dorothy, aren’t you joking?"

Noelle Rose was even more bewildered after being questioned by her apprentice, she reflexively asked.

Indeed, she really thought so, since her apprentice’s intelligence and knowledge are clearest to her, with her erudition it doesn’t seem possible to say such amateurish words, so she’s obviously joking.

However, after asking this, when Spider Witch saw her apprentice’s serious face, her smile gradually faded, then she was taken aback.

"No, are you serious?"

Noelle Rose astonishingly asked.

And this time, she wasn’t the only one surprised, Sitle, Estelle, and other shipbuilding masters from various workshops also astonishingly looked at the homebody witch.

Clearly, everyone previously thought Dorothy, this young chap, was merely fooling around, no one expected she actually meant it.

"Aren’t you being reckless? Dorothy, a Legendary Battleship isn’t so easily attainable."

Seeing her apprentice serious and silent, obviously not joking, Spider Teacher grew anxious, she rarely wielded her authority as a teacher to sternly reprimand.

She knew geniuses are invariably proud, and before this precious apprentice, so-called geniuses seem foolish, but this is no excuse for Dorothy to swell up and disregard Legendary Battleships.

After all, even if sages personally undertake it, they wouldn’t dare claim to surely craft a Legendary Battleship; its construction difficulty surpasses the creation of the world, needing a wise leader, assistance from numerous strong figures, cooperation across various fields, to ultimately produce this alchemical miracle.

Noelle Rose always promoted talent, as long as someone is talented enough, she’d inevitably favor them, but in teaching, she strictly conserves, rigidly serious, otherwise, she wouldn’t go through the effort writing textbooks before teaching.

Doing scholarly work is a serious matter, impossible to mess around.

Speaking of which, since coming to the Shining Territory and witnessing the six wondrous workshops Dorothy personally built, Noelle Rose was indeed somewhat content to stay, having no time to reminisce about leaving Witch Academy.
