The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 317 Recommended Book List
Seeing their high praise for her residence, Sylph blushed with delight and, feigning nonchalance, changed the subject:
“We’re not in the dangerous wilderness today, so how about I tell the burrowing mushroom to stop hiding? That way we can open the window and see the scenery outside, and it’ll be easier for everyone to come and go.”

"Great!" said Vasita. "I also want to try those floating tea leaves!"

Sylph patted the burrowing mushroom again: "Go outside!"

Moran felt no movement on the mushroom-shaped ground. The soil outside the small window on the wall gradually disappeared, and in the blink of an eye, he could see the farmland outside the window.
"Sylph, I'll go outside and see how mushrooms burrow underground when they're fully grown!"

“Then let’s go outside, and I’ll let it go through the tunnel for you to see,” Sylph said.

The other little witches went out together.

Then they saw the enormous red mushroom bounce on the ground, turn its tip upside down, and burrow into the ground.

Its movements were so agile that it didn't resemble a plant at all.

The soil that its canopy touches automatically moves aside, no, it even seems to disappear, because despite its large size, it doesn't push any soil out.

In the blink of an eye, the red mushroom disappeared from the ground, and the ground returned to its previous state without mushrooms.

Even the footprints that Moran and the others left on the soil were completely preserved.

Curious, Moran used a ground-turning spell to dig deeper.

They dug, but found nothing.

They dug again, but still nothing.

We've dug a hole more than a meter deep, where did this mushroom go?
"It senses the soil above its head being dug away and will burrow deeper on its own. Unless you are the one who planted it, it is very difficult to find it underground. It burrows too quickly and too silently."

As Sylph spoke, she squatted down and gently dug away a bit of soil, revealing the bright red umbrella-shaped top.

Moran exclaimed, "Wow, that's some serious dodging skills!"
She had one last question: "It's hidden underground. Won't we suffocate if we stay inside it for too long?"

"No! I've tested it. I've been burning firewood inside it, or made it very small, and I've stayed inside without feeling any difficulty breathing. It should have its own ventilation function."

"And when no one touches the soil on its head, it's closer to the ground. Sometimes, if you let it open a skylight, it can even see the sky outside!" Sylph said.

With all her remaining concerns gone, Moran now couldn't wait to plant her own burrowing mushroom. It could grow when there was magic power, and go dormant when there was no magic power, making it a magical pet.

"Yo ho!"

Beneath the old oak tree, a figure slowly floated into the sky.

Vasida ate a leaf of the Piao Piao tea tree at some point.

Sylph quickly chased after her: "Vashida! Spit out the leaves as soon as you get to the tree!"

She also picked a leaf from a tea tree and floated up.

Vasita didn't do anything reckless. After flying a little above the platform, she spat out the leaf and landed steadily on the platform.

But she was far from satisfied: "Sylph, can I play a few more times?"

“Okay! But just in case, bring a Featherfall Blueberry,” Sylph said.

After receiving permission, Vasida started playing around.

Without any hesitation, it floated into the sky with the fluttering tea leaves in its mouth, drifting all the way to the high heavens.

Moran chased after her on his broomstick: "Vashida, how about we try something else!"

“What?” Vasita asked.

Moran took out a vine seed, used a vine spell to make it grow, then wrapped it around Vasita's waist and increased her flying speed: "Let's go!"

"Ah!" Vasita was pulled around in a circle, and Sylph and the others could hear her scream from the ground. Alba waved from below: "Moran! I want to play too!"

Moran flew over, her vines entwining the little witches on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, she carried them into the sky.

They each had a leaf of tea tree in their mouths, like five hydrogen balloons. Moran pulled them along without them feeling anything, and could even perform all sorts of extreme flying maneuvers, causing them to scream in amazement.

Later, Vasita rode a broomstick, carrying them in the air. Moran also experienced what it was like to be a "hydrogen balloon," which was indeed very exciting.

The six little witches played until dark before finally landing.

Vasita continued to harvest grains from the outer fields to fill her stomach, while Sylph led Moran and the others to the inner fields to pick fruits and vegetables, and even roasted a few wild animals that had wandered into the fields for dinner.

At night, they slept on animal skin blankets laid out inside the burrowing mushrooms.

Everyone lay together, and Moran said, "Want to hear more ghost stories?"

"I don't want to!" ×5
Sylph and the others thought again of the agony they had felt the night before, dominated by ghost stories.

“Luckily there’s no bed underneath,” Vasita said.

“There are no washrooms or mirrors either,” Alba added.

"Sleep!" Ais could almost picture it in her mind.

Moran said with great regret, "It's a bit of a shame to just let him sleep like that... um—"

Ais rolled over and covered her mouth.

Moran's ghost story was ultimately left untold because Cheryl suddenly remembered something and asked them, "Have you seen our school year plan?"

“I glanced at it, and there are no classes this year. They’ve completely left us to our own devices. The only thing worth noting is the announcement that the library is open,” Moran said.

There are no general education courses in fourth grade.

Even the magic Q&A sessions are gone.

“Isn’t there a recommended reading list? I suspect there are enough books on it to keep me studying until I die, there are just too many!” Ais said.

Moran was extremely puzzled: "What recommended reading list?"

She even summoned the Book of Witches to reread the "School Year Plan": "That's right! There's no recommended reading list."

She showed it to the other little witches.

"Huh? Why don't you have any?" Ais showed her her recommended reading list.

Sylph glanced at it and noticed something was off: "Ais, your recommended reading list seems a little different from mine."

Sylph, Vasita, Alba, and Cheryl also summoned the Book of Witches.

Among the group, only Moran's fourth-year notice mentioned that there were no classes scheduled for this year and that the library was fully open to them.

The other little witches also had a super long list of recommended books after that.

Moreover, each of them has a different list of recommended books.

It's clear that the recommendations were based on their magical talents and learning progress.

The content ranges from simple to profound, and from easy to difficult, including classic must-read books and elective supplementary books.

Each book also includes a recommendation note, a star rating, and is divided into recommended learning stages, providing a systematic guide for little witches to learn and practice magic through reading.
