Millennium Witch.

Chapter 96-95- The Day of the End
After completing the three grimoires, Yvette felt that she had worked too hard and diligently, so she decided to take a two-year vacation to rest. The compilation of the fourth book, "The Grimoire of Earth," with its rather corny name, was temporarily put aside.

But it wouldn't be right to say she's just on vacation, because theoretically, she's leveling up at all times right now. Not only is she automatically increasing her total magic power when she's awake, but she's also cultivating her mental power while she's asleep.

With this kind of hands-off training method, even slacking off seems to be justifiable.

Moreover, in this post-apocalyptic world, she didn't have much pressure to survive, which led to a lack of motivation. If she weren't a teacher and felt embarrassed to delay important teaching materials for too long, she could have spent five or six years writing just one magic book.

……

that's it!
After Yvette decided to take a vacation, Dugraby's life suddenly became much more comfortable.

Because the teacher will no longer be checking the students' memorization and mastery of the spell runes every month as before.

With the addition of the three great magic books, its combat power soared instantly. Now, it goes to the nearby mountains every few days to harass the elite mutants and nest masters of the third stage and above, enjoying the pleasure of coming and going like the wind, being hated by the high-level evil demons, yet being helpless against it.

However, this kind of life only lasted for a month before I got tired of it. It was like playing a game with a cheat code; the fun only lasted for a short while, and the rest was just dullness and emptiness.

Moreover, the power brought by the magic book is ultimately an external thing. Only by truly mastering those spells and various combos can Dugrabi truly live up to his teacher's expectations.

So, although the teacher didn't say anything, it decided to set a routine, dedicating four days a week to studying, and the remaining three days to leisure and entertainment.

However, it plans to implement this plan in the fall because the summer is too hot. Every day, you are hit by sticky hot winds, and there is no air conditioning. It would be hard to be interested in studying.

……

In late August, Dugrabi began studying fishing with his teacher.

It found this to be a very fun activity. The only downside was that the teacher could at least catch ghouls, while it couldn't catch any. Every time it thought there was prey on its fishing rod, it would stick its head underwater to take a look, only to find some strange little pieces of trash from the Origin Civilization.

Most of the time they are scrap metal materials, but there are occasional exceptions, such as silicone dolls that look like human corpses. I heard that they are made of high-tech organic materials from a company called Lintui Biotechnology, which can remain soft and tender for thousands of years without decaying. I don't know if it's true or not.

Dugrabi was disappointed with the silicone doll, thinking it was useless, but the teacher surprisingly admired it, praising it as a true genius. Dugrabi guessed that "genius" was a compliment in the eyes of a deity, so he was very happy, feeling that he had gained the teacher's approval in some way.

Later, in order to keep receiving praise from the teacher, it would actively present any strange or unusual things it caught or found as gifts to the teacher. After a while, the teacher stopped accepting them and warned that if it kept giving them to the teacher, it would beat it up, which made it sad for a long time.

Then, in September, the temperature gradually dropped, and it began its regular study life as planned.

Of course, it wasn't a very persistent dragon; on the contrary, it was quite playful. It was only when the teacher told the story of the senior sister that it learned that the senior sister was actually a hardworking academic genius with an extraordinary passion for Buddhist practice. She could study for days and nights without getting distracted or slacking off, which even the teacher deeply admired.

This gave it a considerable spur. As the future legendary dragon king and the current second disciple of the Silver Witch, it felt that even if it was not as good as its senior sister, it couldn't be too far behind, right? Otherwise, wouldn't it make its teacher and senior sister lose face all at once?

Driven by this motivation, it occasionally overcomes its playfulness and laziness, entering a state of diligence and hard work. However, after persisting for a few days, it quickly burns out and falls into a slump, until a few days later, it awakens a second time and begins to strive again… thus forming an almost continuous cycle.

It was June or July again. On a clear afternoon, the sky was cloudless.

Soaking in a certain "bath," Dugrabi leisurely slapped the water's surface with its tail and blew bubbles in the water.

This is a shallow body of water in the submerged city, located on a street with higher elevation. The old decorative statues on both sides stand like reefs covered with barnacles. Vines with small yellow flowers sprout from the holes in the brick walls of the shops. Petals blown by the wind fall onto the river surface, attracting a few small fish to chase and peck at them.

This place is not safe. The closer you get to the bottom of the "water tower" structure, the higher the probability of being attacked by the aberrations in the water. So whenever people cool off in these "cold water baths," their three magic books are surrounded by light and float stably at street corners and other locations. They will launch an attack in advance and destroy any aberrations that get close.

The sweltering summer heat is a good excuse to not study properly, and at this time of year, it would envy Abella, who could hide in the teacher's car and turn on the air conditioning to escape the heat.

Although dragons are not without the opportunity to transform into humans, they must first become a dragon king and unlock specific dragon language magic. To become a dragon king, one must first return to the Dragon Kingdom and participate in the Dragon King Trial... Therefore, during its time in the Land of the End, it was impossible for its teacher to see its human form.

But it doesn't matter, it thought, it will definitely become the Dragon King in the future, and it will definitely be able to create a legend, and then show off its achievements to its teacher.

By then, it will probably become the new strongest being in the human realm, just like that senior sister who I've never met.
It let its mind wander for a while, then noticed the sky suddenly darken, but it didn't pay much attention until it heard the exclamations of the people of the Water Tower Kingdom not far away. Only then did it lazily raise its head and glance at the sky.

Then it saw a magnificent aurora, something it had been waiting for for countless years, suddenly stretch across the sky, obscuring even the blazing summer sun, as if entering a mysterious and dark night.

……

At the highest point of the Water Tower Country, on the top floor of an abandoned hotel building, Yvette stood there, staring expressionlessly at the aurora borealis in the sky, her sense of unease growing stronger.

She had only seen the aurora twice, both times at night, which almost gave her a fixed idea that the aurora only appears at night.

Of course, this is not surprising. With the sun so strong during the day and it being summer, how could one possibly see the aurora?
But it did appear, so suddenly, and what's even more bizarre is that this aurora even overshadowed the sun, like a semi-transparent black curtain that enveloped everything in the world.

Immediately afterward, before she could recover from the sudden aurora, she noticed various strange noises coming from the submerged city. Looking down, she saw countless aquatic aberrations rushing restlessly towards the mountains, like a writhing tide, and those directions were precisely where some of the surrounding Mother Nest forces were located.

Is this... the call of the broodstock?

But why would the brood mound suddenly summon these low-level aberrations?
Thinking of this, suddenly, a word that had been dormant for a long time surged into Yvette's mind.

—The day of the end.

If she guessed correctly, then this moment marks the beginning of the Witch of the End's invasion and destruction of the Radiant Continent!
