The maid projection still spoke without emotion, but the chanical dog beside her did display "loyalty.jpg" and "happy.jpg" emoticons.
"Family Head?"
Sophia was startled, then realized it must be referring to her young mistress. She couldn't help but take another look at the maid projection before her, knowing that this must be another of the young mistress's new gimmicks.
Without dwelling on it, she silently followed the maid projection, entering the dense forest ahead.
All along the way, the Pure White Witch surveyed everything around her. Although she still thought the young mistress was wasting her talents studying civil engineering, she couldn't deny that the sky island was exquisitely and beautifully constructed, with every plant delighting the eye.
Sophia often visited her teacher's manor villa, but compared to that masterpiece, she found the forest treehouse in front of her even more to her liking. Evidently, the young mistress's studies in architecture had paid off.
Past the fairy-tale-like forest, across the still quite empty fields and pastures, the Pure White Witch arrived under the giant oak tree in the center of the forest, and imdiately spotted the three witches bustling feverishly ahead.

"Sss, Little Fairy, although this instrunt you crafted by hand is a bit ugly, it's surprisingly functional," Senior Mia remarked in amazent as she slted various tals, using alchemy to process them into different plates.
The instrunts they were using all looked quite...
Well, rugged.
These instrunts had just been cobbled together by Dorothy; the Hobody Witch was then consud with thoughts of building ships and had no patience for adding any details to their appearance, only ensuring they functioned before moving on.
So, to be frank, these alchemy instrunts, if put nicely, were rugged. Put bluntly, they were a bit ugly.
Initially, Senior Mia had so disdain for these crude instrunts, especially since so of them had unpolished tal surfaces with burrs. She had never used such careless contraptions in her life.
It's a good thing it was the Little Fairy asking her to work; if anyone else had given her such a heap of junk, she would have slapped it away on the spot.
However, so things can only be appreciated through use, and despite her initial reluctance—she even considered taking out her own high-end, personal Alchemy Workshop—she did not want to hurt her beloved's feelings, as openly showing disdain could easily lose favorability. So, she decided to give it a try and, if she really found it uncomfortable, to find an excuse then.
Once she started, she quickly beca hooked, finding the instrunts incredibly easy to use, almost offensively so. Of course, in terms of efficiency, nothing could compare with her personal, bespoke workshop crafted by a master, but these were still acceptable.
What mattered was how convenient they were, particularly the silky smooth logic of the operating system, which was extrely intuitive.
"Little Fairy, which master did you acquire this template formula from? I want to get a set myself," Mia asked curiously.
While any witch would know so alchemy, alchemy requires formulas, and ordinary witches certainly weren't capable of creating them on their own; they had to pay to learn from alchemy teachers or buy formulas from the Magic Web Library and teach themselves.
Just as Spell Masters often earned money by selling spells, many Alchemist Masters made a living by releasing various alchemy formulas.
Mia thought the formula Dorothy had used to craft the instrunts must be one newly released by so Alchemist Master.
Dorothy: "...."
Of course, it was the Witch of the Forest's formula.
That's what she'd like to say, but in truth, the Witch of the Forest had not released any such thing, as these template formulas had been designed by her long ago. Regrettably, in the past, her poverty prevented her from turning these concepts into reality. Only now, with the materials sponsored by Senior Mia, had she been able to dig these out, conducting a quick ti trial test.
She had thought of releasing them in the library to earn points after testing, but Senior Mia's question now caught her off guard.
Of course, coming clean wasn't really an issue, as both Senior Mia and Audrey were trustworthy. They had even seen her true face, so revealing her pseudonym wouldn't be a big deal.
The main concern was...
Dorothy glanced at the hat on her head, worrying that coming clean might annoy Senior Fanny into pumling her, as the Future Fourth King had long been an ardent fan of witches.
"Well, it's just a formula I fumbled together myself, not worth ntioning, really," Dorothy said, scratching her head helplessly.
To this, Senior Mia was taken aback, then her eyes lit up.
"Little Fairy, I think maybe we don't need to rush into starting our future military shipyard project. Opening an instrunt shop and creating a completely new brand seems pretty profitable," the Golden Princess identified the business opportunity in a flash.
