So I became a witch

"It's okay, she's probably just looking for a chance to skip class in a fair and honest way, and with her personality, she probably will get tired of playing in a short time, so there's no need for you to follow along to join in the fun."

"is that so……"

"Compared to these, I care a little more about you."

"Hey? Hey!" Sita blushed for some reason.

I was a little surprised, but I continued to say: "You may not have noticed it yourself, your complexion seems to be not very good recently, what happened? If it's okay, you can also tell me about it." oh?"

"Ah, that..." Sita gradually regained her composure, "Actually, it's nothing, just..."

"Nightmare?" Luo Yuze and I said at the same time.

"Ah, yes, but it feels like an ordinary nightmare. It feels like I'm in another person's body, peeking at the past through someone else's eyes." Sita felt a little displeased. Sorry to say.

Luo Yuze and I looked at each other, and each could see the strange look in the other's eyes.

"Excuse me, can you explain in detail?" Luo Yuze asked first.

"Huh? Okay, okay." Although it was a bit strange, Sita still answered our question, "Well... I seem to wake up from a broken town, the world is burning, monsters are raging everywhere, and people are crying , fled everywhere, but all of them were killed..." Her voice suddenly dropped, and there was a hint of sadness in her words.

"What about you? Where are you?" Luo Yuze asked.

"I didn't do anything, just watched, step by step, across the burning town, across the charred wilderness, and finally... was killed."

"You mean by? Killed by something?"

"Being stabbed in my chest by a girl... the sword point hurts, but it's not that kind of pain. I'm very sad, but happy, as if... From the very beginning, I expected to be killed like this generally."

"Who is that girl?"

"Her name... I can't remember it. I should have remembered it, but... Hey? It's strange, why, why can't I remember it..." Sita suddenly burst into big tears, like Like a broken silver chain, it fell to the ground.

"Hello!" Luo Yuze, who stopped drinking and wanted to ask something, handed a handkerchief from his pocket at the same time, and said worriedly, "Are you all right?"

"Well, it's okay, I'm sorry to make you worry." Sita wiped away the tears in her eyes and regained her smile, "It's okay, it's just a small problem. Ah, as for the handkerchief, I will wash it before returning it For you."

"No, no need, just hold it. If you wait, do you want to have a meal together?" I tried to suggest.

"Well, I'm a little unwell, so I want to go back to the dormitory and lie down for a while, so I'm afraid I can't accompany you."

"Really? Then please have a good rest." I nodded without doubting him, and we bid farewell to each other and then parted in opposite directions.

The school cafeteria is just opposite the dormitory building. It is different from the big pot rice cafeteria that is generally imagined. The cafeteria of Rutias Academy has a full eight floors. It gathers chefs from all over the world and brings their own The takeaway business, of course, all of this is still based on the credit system. As long as you have enough credits, you can eat all the delicacies you can think of in the world, but in other words, if you don’t have credits, you can only enjoy the free nutrition provided by the academy Meals, of course, are really not flattering in terms of taste.

After Luo Yuze and I picked out the dishes, we took the tray and sat down at a table and chair.Although it was lunch time, there were not a few students who came here, but compared with the entire cafeteria, it still seemed too empty.This situation will improve after the arrival of the freshmen who are still in the novice area, but it will probably be very limited.

"So, what is the purpose of building such a large canteen? Is there nowhere to spend the money?"

"Maybe it's to prepare in case the crowd is full one day?" Luo Yuze skillfully rolled up the pasta on the plate into a big ball with a fork, and stuffed it all into his mouth in one go.

"How could so many people want to join this strange academy? To be honest, I was shocked when I saw so many freshmen when I first came up, but that's it at most. For most people, this The world is still peaceful and beautiful, living a monotonous and peaceful daily life. Ah, it’s really enviable." I said, taking a bite of the hamburger in my hand, "Speaking of which, did you really know anything about Sita just now? nightmare."

"You mean that, I did see similar reports before I was alive." Luo Yuze quickly finished the remaining noodles, and wiped his mouth with a tissue beside him.

"You said that before you were alive... there was always something weird."

"That is indeed life time for me. No, it doesn't even count as life time. For this world, Luo Yuze does not exist, and now I am just a person who was born with your memory It's just leftovers."

volume [-] real name

"Stop, stop! We will discuss this issue later, let's talk about Sita for now." I quickly stopped the topic, "You must know something, right? Otherwise, I wouldn't have looked at it like that just now Me. You have been running to the academy library these days, did you find anything?"

"In terms of discoveries, there are indeed some, but with the authority we have now, even if we search all the databases, we can get very little information about the Void Eye. It is the same as I expected , even now, the existence of the Void Eye is still classified as confidential."

"But when she first met Xia Luohua, didn't she recognize my ability at a glance?"

"Her words... well, I won't mention this for now. If you use the power of the witch, you may be able to learn more, but that would be too easy to scare the snake. This is also the headquarters of the witch hunters, so it is better to be cautious if possible. Wonderful. But I do know some things about Sita, for example, her real name and the family behind her."

"Um, if I know that kind of thing casually, wouldn't it be a little bad? After all, I didn't say anything myself." I said anxiously.

Luo Yuze looked indifferent: "Anyway, you will know this kind of thing sooner or later, if you feel uneasy, just pretend you don't know, and this is just my guess, it cannot be guaranteed to be 100% correct .”

"That's what I said..."

"Well, I'll just draw conclusions. Sita Elizabeth, this is just her borrowed identity. In fact, her real name is Andrea Rockefeller. Are you unfamiliar with this surname?"

"How could I know this kind of thing... No, I seem to have heard this surname there..." I searched for information in my memory, "By the way! You are talking about the famous Rockefeller family! It The first generation is said to be the first richest man in the world in the United States. He founded the University of Chicago and Rockefeller University. He is a veritable oil king. It is said that he has some relationship with Freemasonry. But what does this have to do with Theta? Don’t you want to say She is from this family, right?"

"It's almost the same, but there are some differences. The real Rockefeller family was not founded by the famous John Rockefeller, but existed earlier, and is even suspected of being one of the founders of the Freemasonry It originated in England, and the ancestor of John Rockefeller crossed the Atlantic Ocean during the first industrial revolution, immigrated to the United States, and stationed there. There is a subtle connection between the two, which is equivalent to the main family and Separation, let’s talk about the relationship between the inner world and the outer world. Well, let’s not talk about the Rockefeller family in reality, let’s talk about Andrea — that is, Sita.”

"You mean, Sita came from such a big family with a long history? But how do you know?" I put the straw into the glass of ice-cola, and sucked it up slowly.

"Didn't she also say that before? My family is one of the founders of Freemasonry, and then I started with the disguised identity of Sita Elizabeth. Well, although this Rockefeller family may seem to people in the world I don't know, but they are relatively famous existences in Rutias Academy. Coincidentally, some important people in their family seem to have left recently, and they have been searching secretly. This information, I finally locked the real body of Sita. Andrea Rockefeller, this is, her real name." Luo Yuze said unhurriedly, and at some point brought another plate of spaghetti.

"So you spent so long just to check other people's household registration books? Isn't it a bit immoral?"

"Don't interrupt! Are you talking to those girls and forget why we came to Lutias Academy?" Luo Yuze said angrily.

"Where do I have my relatives! And how could I forget, isn't it just to investigate the secrets of the Void Eye and the Witch? In this way, Sita's right eye..." Although he knew Sita's real name, But I still use the name "Sita" habitually to call her.

"Unfortunately, although its existence has many similarities with the Eye of Xu, I don't think it is the Eye of Xu." Luo Yuze said seriously.

For some reason, after hearing her words, I was inexplicably relieved.Although our pursuit of the secret of the Void Eye may be interrupted here, if possible, I still don't want Sita to have anything to do with it.It is precisely because I am a user that I know that the existence of the Void Eye is by no means a good thing.

"Do you seem to be happy for her?" Luo Yuze keenly noticed the change in my mood.

"Well, a little bit. But how are you sure?" I asked.

"The right eye she holds...for the sake of convenience, let's call it the eye of omniscience. First of all, the similarities: 1. It has a shape similar to the eye of the void."

I nodded. I have observed its existence at close range. It is no different from normal human eyes when it is not in use, but once it is activated, it will seem to be soaked in red pigment, like a ruby, emitting In the beautiful and eerie dark light, some mysterious symbols seem to be faintly rotating.

"2. Possess the basic ability of the virtual eye, that is, to see and analyze the information of the world."

"This seems to be true."

"Then there are differences. First of all, the eye held by Andrea seems to only retain the most basic ability. Generally speaking, the owner of the eye of the void will develop it due to individual differences. The derivative ability derived from this, for example, in my case, the ability is probably copied. Any skill, move, or even innate ability, as long as I see it, I can fully learn it. Other virtual eyes in history Users also seem to have various powers."

"Wait, wait, don't just add settings casually like this! According to this, can't I also only use the most basic abilities?" I said hastily.

"Don't you have it? The power to correct or even tamper with information." Luo Yuze said meaningfully.

"Uh, but that's also because of the witch..." I stopped suddenly, because I remembered that my ability seemed to exist before becoming a witch, but it was only after becoming a witch that I had enough energy , just play it out.

Chapter 4 Conclusion

"Understood? From my point of view, you are the real monster. Ordinary Void Eye users, including me, can only use the information when they know the existence of the information, but you are Directly attacking the information itself, such an ability is no longer enough to be described as terrifying. No, or in other words, this is the method of using the Void Eye itself..."

"Okay, okay, let's talk about my ability later. It's just that, isn't it enough to confirm?" I quickly changed the topic back.

"Then the second difference is that Andrea's eye is inherited through blood."

"Huh?" I froze for a moment.

Luo Yuze held his cheek with one hand, and used the other hand to sip a drink with chopsticks boredly: "Remember what I told you? The inheritance of the Void Eye will not be affected by time, space, blood and other elements. Restriction, unpredictable, unobtainable, just like its name, illusory. No, if you want to say the only restriction, I am afraid that every generation of the inheritors of the Void Eye is a girl."

"what???"

"Okay, let's talk about the Rockefeller family again..."

"No, no, did you just say that the descendants of every generation of the Void Eye are girls? Then what am I? No, no, or..."

"Okay, let's discuss this issue later." Luo Yuze stopped me quite forcefully, "According to my investigation, the direct children of their family will appear every few generations with the 'all-seeing eye' born Baby girl, such a child seems to be regarded as a saint, that is, the incarnation of God, who was enshrined at home since childhood, and was not allowed to go out, nor allowed to fall in love, and was imprisoned like this until she died."

Luo Yuze's tone was very light when he said this, I couldn't help but glanced at her worriedly, and found that her expression didn't change at all, or in other words, there was no expression at all.

Luo Yuze continued to speak as if he didn't see my worry: "Because of this, I spent a lot of effort to confirm her identity through a little bit of clues. This guy seems to have borrowed my own I sneaked out as my pen pal."

"Hey, isn't that great? I want to go out and see the outside world..."

"It's not such a simple thing as 'very good'." Luo Yuze said heavily, "This is not a child running away from home in a fit of anger, nor is it playing hide-and-seek. , it is impossible to do this.”

"Yes, I'm sorry." Being oppressed by her momentum, I accidentally apologized.

Luo Yuze sighed, and leaned back on the chair with his arms folded: "I don't know the other news for the time being, why a girl with a suspected 'Eye of Void' was born in the blood of the Rockefeller family, why did they want to It is called the "all-seeing eye", and why these children are imprisoned at home and cannot go out for life, and how did Andrea escape from the heavily guarded home? There are too many similar questions. It is impossible to come up with an answer based on the information we already know. There is only one key point that really makes me dispel the idea of ​​the 'Eye of the Void', and that is the attitude of the academy."

"The attitude of the academy?"

"There is very little information about the Eye of Void in the library, and about the Rockefeller family, even freshmen like us can find it. Why do you think this is?" Luo Yuze asked rhetorically.

"You mean...it's not that the academy doesn't care about the Eye of Xu, but it has already determined that the existence of that family has nothing to do with the Eye of Xu, is that so?" I understood clearly.

"Exactly. In fact, in my memory, there are many children who were mistaken for the holders of the Void Eye, and they were all proved to be fakes in the end. Ah, but there is no doubt about what you have It’s the real eye of emptiness, it’s really gratifying.”

"I don't think this is something worthy of congratulations at all... Then what you said before, it will happen once every hundred years..."

"That's fake. The so-called once every [-] years refers to the statement of 'suspected Void Eye holders including fakes'. In fact, the frequency of appearance of the real Void Eye is completely uncertain. It may be several times." Hundreds of years, maybe tens of thousands of years, or..."

"Stop, stop, stop! If you keep talking like this, you will confuse me. Generally speaking, most of them are fake, and the real ones are very rare, right?" I said.

"Correct answer. As far as I know, only me and the other guy before me are the only ones who have been confirmed by the Void Eye. If you add you, there are probably three people..."

"perhaps?"

"I've said it all, I don't know how many people there are, and after the world is messed up by you, I'm not sure whether the memories of the past can also be used in this world."

"Haha, I'm really sorry..."

"It can be summed up in one sentence, that is not the eye of emptiness."

"That is to say, what we are going to do has nothing to do with Sita." I was slightly relieved.

"No, that's not necessarily the case. My intuition tells me that there is definitely some relationship between that child and the Eye of Xu. About her nightmare..."

"what happened?"

"No, I don't know for the time being. Anyway, it's enough for you to get along with her as before, or after you know this, you can't do it anymore?"

"How come, for me, Sita has always been Sita." I replied with a smile.

"You..." Luo Yuze suddenly approached me, which startled me.

"What, what?"

"Could it be that you like her?"

"Pfft!" I spit out all the Coke in my mouth and coughed violently, "You, what did you say all of a sudden?"

"It was the same before. You seem to be very concerned about that child."

"It's just that the classmates get along well, can you stop thinking so dirty?" I said angrily, "Besides, my body is still a girl now, how can this kind of thing be possible..."

"Oh, is that so?" Luo Yuze said meaningfully.

"Really, I told you not to look at me with that kind of eyes like someone who came here! I really just care a little bit."

Why?I can't tell you exactly, but I just feel that it has to be done.

The memory world on the ship... Sita's nightmare... The Eye of Xu... Damn, no matter how I think about it, I can't connect it.Would love to have more info...

By the way, information!

I stood up from the stool at once, looked at Luo Yuze seriously and said, "Let's go earn credits."

Chapter 5 Star System

"If you want to get more information, you need higher permissions, and permissions need credits to buy, do you mean that?" Luo Yuze said.

"That's right! Based on the star system, this is currently the easiest and most usable method!" I said with great interest.

The star's system (SS for short), when we entered the island, the person in charge had a little talk with us.To put it simply, the role of the star system is equivalent to a super quantum computer, which manages all things in Lutias Academy. The information of each person in the academy is registered and divided into E~SSS according to the authority. It doesn’t matter, like ordinary freshmen who have just entered the school, they only have permission E, which is only allowed to check the credit balance, use and view the map function, and can only be active within the scope of Fuguang Island; our word is D, and the scope of permission is extended to course selection , use functions such as student dormitories and canteens, and the scope of activities has been extended to Xingyue Island; the higher the authority, the wider the scope of activities, and the more information you can learn. It is quite a Japanese-style RPG game. Feel.

At the same time, the role of the SS is not limited to the computer, its ability is also applicable to the level of the star spawner.Xingzi, an unidentified substance, has the ability to communicate between the virtual and the real. It was discovered and used by the first generation of star emperor Lytias, which opened up the road of Xingyan. It is a necessary existence for mortals to enter Xingyan.Generally speaking, Xingzi is divided into twelve attributes: earth, water, wind, fire, light, darkness, thunder, machinery, space, spirit, life, and yin and yang. However, in addition to these twelve attributes, there are also There are some "non-attribute" planetesimals that cannot be manipulated and utilized by humans.However, the existence of the star system can perfectly use non-attribute star particles to exert the power equivalent to the star-spreading realm, that is, to overwrite reality.

In other words, the entire academy actually exists under the domain of this "star system".

"If you look at it from this angle, many of the previous things can be explained. No wonder the architectural scene in this academy can be changed at will, and so many students can be separated to build enchantments at the same time. Domain, and judging from this quantity, it might even be said to be at the top level among the star-spreaders. What kind of existence is this so-called star system?" Luo Yuze said.

"Well, I'm not too sure about the real teacher. Some say it's a black technology left over from the Star King era, and some say it's a high-intelligence AI, but in short it's pretty good. Let's call it SS for now. , probably every corner of this academy is under its surveillance, and we must be careful about what we do.” I said, “But, also, because of this, it is said that Lu In the library database of Tias Academy, there are many unknown secrets in the world buried. As long as we have enough permissions, we can read all the information and find the answers we want. This is better than wandering outside Much better. But..."

Sure enough, there is still a lack of credits.

"Applying for an increase in authority must cost a lot of credits and have enough strength to pass the test. Let's not talk about the test for now, the credits are the most important issue at present. For example, if you go from D to C, you need 5000 credits, and from C to B It is 10000, B to A is 50000... The higher the number of credits, the higher the number of credits required. With our current income of 200 credits per month, I don’t know if we have to wait until the Year of the Monkey. Another way is to take courses. You can get a reward of at least 1000 points if you don't study, although it is much faster than the first method, it is also quite time-consuming." Luo Yuze said.

"Huh, I think I already have the answer to this question." A complacent expression appeared on my face.

"Oh, what do you mean by that?"

"Hey, why do you think we came to this island two months earlier than the average student? Is it just to start class a while earlier? But that kind of basic knowledge doesn't matter where you study it? If you put Wouldn't it be too shabby for it to be used as a top ten reward?"

"You mean... is there anything else strange on this island?"
