Otaku Witch-Chapter 1076 - 635: Belated Judgment (Part 2)

You’re sick, yet why don’t you take the medicine when it’s in your hands?

"Buddhist Law? That ’Six Paramitas’?"

Ibuki Yuuki was taken aback, then something occurred to her that left her astonished.

"That thing, Teacher Aoandon kept telling us to cultivate it, and we followed the procedure, but it was useless, just a bunch of platitudes promoting kindness."

Dorothy: "..."

Fine, the Buddhist teachings indeed emphasize understanding. Buddhist Law is famously cryptic, speaking in riddles. If you get it, you get it; if not, it’s just nonsense.

Even in the Eastern Universe where Buddhism is thriving, those with innate understanding are few, let alone in this Witch World devoid of cultural foundation.

Besides, Aoandon is not really a competent teacher; that Miss Demon achieved her Bodhisattva cultivation entirely thanks to Buddha’s empowerment. Such entities, awakened through divine intervention, benefit greatly alongside their surroundings.

They possess divine skills and methods, but their abilities aren’t self-cultivated, so their guidance is often half-baked.

Dorothy recalled Aoandon’s preaching process during the Hyakki Festival; Miss Demon was just a heartless repeater of Buddha’s teachings.

"Shuten, are you awake?"

Speak of the devil, as they just thought of this Monster Bodhisattva, Aoandon appeared at the door.

Miss Demon was delighted to see her precious Ghost King awake.

Though she raised Hyakki to find the Saint, and now that the Saint has appeared, the genuine Aoandon isn’t the kind to burn bridges.

Merely, when she noticed the Homebody Witch’s presence, she dropped to her knees in a gracious tiger-like manner.

"Greetings, Saint Lord."

Dorothy: "..."

The Homebody Witch twitched at the corner of her eye, questioning why Buddha sent this character over.

Moreover, during their previous encounter, she seemed like a mature big sister; how did she suddenly become so embarrassing?

"Why did Buddha send you here?"

Dorothy couldn’t help but ask.

"Of course, it’s because I’m impressive. After Buddha taught the Dharma, he asked the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas for their insights, and I was the only one to faithfully repeat his teaching verbatim."

Upon hearing the Saint’s inquiry, Aoandon lifted her head, slightly proud as she puffed her chest in her shaky monk’s robe to answer.

Dorothy: "..."

Alright, I understand. Among the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, you’re the dumbest, having no insights, only capable of repeating.

Low emotional intelligence: This idiot didn’t comprehend a thing.

High emotional intelligence: She can completely and accurately convey Buddha’s teachings, serving as a ready Heavenly Book vehicle.

Next to them, Ibuki Yuuki was filled with confusion.

Why would Lady Aoandon perform such a grand ceremony for Lady Dorothy? Saint Lord? What does that mean?

Clearly, it was just one unconscious nap, yet Miss Oiran felt she missed out on plenty.

Nonetheless, she gathered the true essence of the exorcism method from Lady Dorothy’s earlier remarks.

Did the ’Six Paramitas’ really have such effects?

Ibuki Yuuki was both shocked and ashamed, realizing the wasteful efforts spent searching Hyakki for exorcism secrets were in vain.

"You can ask Aoandon for the explanation of the Buddhist Law; she should have memorized it. I better not say more."

Dorothy kindly advised Miss Oiran.

Currently, she dared not casually preach again, to avoid causing a worldwide uproar.

However, it’s okay, as she had previously shared these basics while preaching at Monster Mountain, and Aoandon was also present then. Miss Repetition should have noted the content of those teachings, providing Hyakki with study materials if they wish to further explore Buddhism.

Upon hearing this, Miss Oiran turned to look at Aoandon, observing the confident nod of this sassy-looking demon nun, she felt even more grateful towards the Homebody Witch.

Sigh, she owed Lady Dorothy another debt of gratitude; even her life wouldn’t be enough to repay it.

The Ghost King’s Daughter began pondering how to express her gratitude.

While Miss Oiran weighed the merits of becoming a servant or starting a soccer team to show appreciation, Dorothy remembered something and pulled out a humanoid spider silk cocoon from her magic bag, handing it over.

"This is something my colleagues left for you."

The Homebody Witch stated.

Actually, it was Spider Teacher’s trouble-making hands-off approach given to her.

Sigh, only Aunt Miko’s cover was blown this time; Dorothy’s clown mask was thoroughly unraveled.

Yet, compared to the news that the crafty abnormality was Yae Miko, Spider Teacher’s quick acceptance of Dorothy’s recent rise to fame as the Clown surprised them all.

After all, the astonishments brought by her student Noelle Rose go beyond this, even if she were to see her dear student mingling with The Third King, she would no longer be surprised.

Hmm, after all, it’s Dorothy; no absurdity is out of character for her.

No wonder she’s my precious apprentice.

Thus, Spider Teacher joyfully passed the spider silk cocoon initially meant for the Torture Department to Dorothy, a merit destined to be shared with her good student.

However, Dorothy felt that perhaps leaving this cocoon for Miss Oiran to handle was more appropriate.

"This was the perpetrator plotting against you before; my two colleagues captured her for you, handle it as you will."

Dorothy cut open the face of the humanoid spider silk cocoon, revealing the face of Kamo Tadayuki, and said.

Ibuki Yuuki, looking at her enemy still peacefully asleep due to spider venom, said nothing.

After a while, she climbed out of bed, and just like Aoandon earlier, kneeled deeply in a grand salute to the Homebody Witch.

orz...

"Lady Dorothy, my life is yours from now on, directing me through mountains or fires."

The Ghost King’s Daughter pledged.

Earlier, she hadn’t immediately pledged her life, thinking her grudge was still unavenged, but now, her final concern was no more.

"Uh... what are you doing?"

Dorothy, startled by Miss Oiran’s intense reaction, hurried to help her up.

Also, though it might seem inappropriate to focus, Miss Oiran certainly lived up to the title — her grand kneel showcased a breathtaking waist-and-hip curve that was quite intimidating.

Well, having thought Aoandon was already very alluring, but now...

This is the impact of the King’s convoy?

Clicking her tongue, which proper witch could withstand such temptation?

The Homebody Witch controlled her thoughts dangerously slipping, with immense willpower.

Alright, mainly because the look in Sophia’s eyes from the coffin behind was chilling.

Yet, even with Dorothy’s support, the Ghost King’s Daughter didn’t rise; it was only after completing her grand gesture that she lifted her head, eyes slightly moist.

"My Lord, this was my life-and-death enmity, and now, it’s finally settled."

She began choked, recounting her previous life story.

...

Dorothy listened patiently, her gaze turning icy as she looked at the still peacefully sleeping Kamo Tadayuki.

This Japan is truly rotten to the core, how does such scum maintain a high position?

She contemplated, then looked at the tragically-backgrounded Vine Lady Oiran with sympathy, extending an invitation.

"Given such an enemy, we shouldn’t let her off easily. Where is my Judgment Order? I’ll take you to a good place."

The already unconditionally loyal Miss Oiran hastily retrieved the judgment order from her chest.

Dorothy held the judgment order, then a phantom Gate of the Underworld emerged behind her.

...The ghost gate opening...
