Fox Exploits the Tiger’s Might
“Alright, senior, no need to panic.
It’s just a phantom from the past, not a big issue,”
Homebody Witch was very amused by Masked Senior Sister’s embarrassing state and reminded her.
Upon hearing this, senior Fanny, who had been somewhat cowered by the teacher’s authority, also calmed down.
She took a closer look at the Evil Breed Little Loli opposite her and soon noticed something.
“Emmm… Although she looks very similar, and her qi feels similar, a closer look suggests there are some differences from Demon King Teacher.
Wait, let me have a better look…”
On Homebody Witch’s face, the clown mask blinked, and then the hollow eyes suddenly lit up.
“Hiss…
Holy smokes, Dorothy, I’ve discovered something incredible!
This little one is both Demon King Teacher and not Demon King Teacher…”
“Could you speak plain language?
What on earth are you saying?”
Even Homebody Witch, who was a bit flustered, couldn’t help but urge her on.
“Don’t rush me.
If I’m not mistaken, this should be one of the Demon King Teacher’s past lives.”
Senior Fanny didn’t keep them in suspense any longer and revealed her findings.
“Eh, past life?
That makes sense, but how could there be talk of reincarnation when there isn’t even an Underworld System these days?”
Dorothy was stunned, and while she agreed with the possibility, she still had her doubts.
“Actually, it does exist, just in a more primitive form.
In this era, when lives end, and souls dissipate, their soul fragments return to the Sea of Souls.
There, they merge with other soul fragments to reform into new souls.”
“During this process, some special souls won’t completely disperse upon death.
They can return to the Sea of Souls in a more intact form, and then be born anew.”
“Of course, this primitive form of reincarnation is nowhere near as precise and perfect as the Underworld System, with significant loss.
Although most of the soul is retained in each reincarnation, new soul fragments are always integrated; hence, whether this can truly be considered reincarnation and whether the soul remains the same after reincarnation has been the subject of endless debate in the academic world.”
“This phantom from the past is likely the reincarnation of Demon King Teacher’s soul in this era, which can be tentatively referred to as her past life.”
Senior Fanny explained this way.
“I see,”
Homebody Witch nodded, feeling like she had gained some valuable knowledge.
She was still just a student, and while she did have some knowledge, she was far from Omniscience.
Moreover, with limited strength, there was high-end knowledge that was out of her reach.
This theory of primitive reincarnation was something she had never come across before; it was too ancient.
After the emergence of the Underworld System, such outdated knowledge was excluded from witch curriculums.
Only a historian like senior Fanny would specifically seek out these bizarre and ancient teachings.
“But it’s no wonder this kid made you stumble, Dorothy.
If it were the actual historical figure, they’d be no more than a mortal, but after becoming as powerful as Demon King Teacher, their Strength would retcon history.
Even such a past life would be affected and receive a certain level of enhancement.”
“This little one’s abilities are quite troublesome, aren’t they?
They must be a weakened version of some of Demon King Teacher’s Authority.
Indeed, quite a challenge.”
“However, it’s not a big issue.
After all, Demon King Teacher hasn’t yet reached the Omnipotence Realm.
Her influence on the past only goes so far; otherwise, we’d be in real trouble.”
“Omnipotent Ones possess the Attribute of all things converging into one; by that point, there would be no distinction between past and future, past lives, and present existence.
Any point in time, and any parallel universe where she exists, would all be the authentic Demon King Teacher.”
“She is both the one and the multitudes; the whole is the one and the one is the whole.”
Senior Fanny added with a tone of reverence and envy as she spoke about the Omnipotence Realm.
“However, Demon King Teacher is just half a step away from that realm.
She can definitely see and sense everything about this phantom from her past life.
Dorothy, I reckon we should steer clear of her.
Let me tell you, Demon King Teacher can be extremely petty, and she holds grudges a hundred percent of the time, even if it’s just against a phantom of her past self.
Moreover, her Incarnation is right there in the academy, making it even easier to detect us.
We can’t afford to provoke her, but we can still avoid her.”
Masked Senior Sister eventually extended a tiny tentacle to tug at Dorothy’s hair strand, suggesting this course of action.
Now that they realized this entity wasn’t the Demon King Teacher herself, the future fourth-ranked felt emboldened once more.
Her words carried more conviction, and she even dared to continue speaking ill of her own teacher.
But then…
“Dorothy, why are your legs trembling?”
Senior Fanny asked with some confusion as she watched her Master suddenly collapse onto the soft seat of the Hover Car, her legs quivering uncontrollably.
Dorothy: “…..”
Damn it, senior, your warning came too late.
I’ve already signed the master-servant contract.
Homebody Witch was on the verge of tears.
Although she was very interested in the mighty powers of the Omnipotence Realm that senior Fanny had revealed—a realm of knowledge inaccessible to her reality—the knowledge she inadvertently gained felt like an easy win.
It also reminded Dorothy of her own so-called Golden Finger, which may or may not be considered a true Golden Finger.
