Otaku Witch-Chapter 365 327. Conscience Devil’s Mirror
"The game is over,"
The final scene in the game arena lingered on Miss Ghost Mask being beheaded by Madeline's sword. Outside the venue, Dorothy declared the end of this first assessment.
Since the Phantom King's demise, the finals had been exceptionally intense.
First, the inflated Alice used Blood Curse Killing to instantly annihilate over a dozen people, then began seizing the Phantom King's dropped items with the Undead Puppet Legion amid the tide of blood.
However, it must be said that the Phantom King's loot was quite abundant and scattered everywhere; Alice couldn't scoop it all up in a short amount of time.
Afterward, the resurrected Phantom Girl, who had reverted to a blank slate, happened to find a customized spell slot near her respawn point.
Thus, this Mental Witch promptly set a spell she had long contemplated.
Nine-Ring Psychic Magic—Group Dream Entering Technique.
Indeed, she kept her previous promise, not striking at these temporary allies during the teaming period, but that was all she abstained from; she memorized the mental fluctuations of every witch who had participated in the alliance.
For a skilled Mental Witch, decrypting an enemy's mental fluctuations was akin to a thief obtaining the passcode for a targeted home's lock; it allowed for easy entry.
So, when the Phantom Girl initiated the Group Dream Entering Technique, all witches were dragged into the realm of dreams.
Then Alice, the little witch with a heavy bias in psyche, became the first victim of the vengeful Phantom Girl's endless nightmares, tormented to death.
Poor Alice, after reviving, was immediately dragged back into the dream and killed once more.

The Mental Witch then began a slaughtering spree.
Regrettably, she quickly crossed paths with the newly resurrected Madeline. The Dream Entering Technique actually had no inherent lethality; if you could firmly believe it was only a dream, then no nightmare could harm you. Of course, should your will show even the slightest crack, the dream would materialize into reality.
And the will of Madeline, the Peak Martial Saint, was ever so resolute. Having just endured the trials of Cataclysmic Fire, she experienced a breakthrough in willpower. No matter how the Phantom Girl deployed nightmares, Madeline's resolve didn't falter. She even advanced triumphantly, locating the mistress of the dreamscape, the Phantom Girl, and slaying her within the dream.
After the massacre led by Alice and the Phantom Girl, only five witches remained alive.
Madeline, Miss Ghost Mask, the Stellar Speaker, the Frost Snow Lady, and the Star-Burial Lady.
Immediately, the unfortunate Stellar Speaker was instantaneously obliterated by the diabolical Four Great Evildoers, as the Prophecy Witch, though lacking in head-on combat, had quite a knack for causing aggravation, especially in chaotic battles. If not quickly focused and eliminated, she would become a great nuisance later on.
There was unspoken agreement among the Four Great Evildoers; as soon as they were free from the dream, they unhesitatingly acted in concert.
Poor Stellar Speaker perished without uttering a last word, her final struggle amounted to inadvertently hurling herself upon Madeline's sword.
Well, since death was certain, she might as well donate some points to the Holy Knight she greatly admired.
This left the Four Great Evildoers facing one another, ultimately settling on splitting into two fair one-on-one duels, followed by a final contest between the victors of each pair.
Madeline faced Miss Ghost Mask, while the Frost Snow Lady took on the Star-Burial Lady.
The second pairing ended exceptionally swiftly. The Wild Hunt Clan's princess made no attempt to hide her identity, so after finding a few customized spell slots, she set them all to the secret techniques of her clan, showcasing her formidable skills and maximizing her combat power.
On the other hand, the Star-Burial Lady, plagued with hard luck the entire game, was somewhat mentally explosive. While reason dictated that she opt for some classic, unbranded popular necromantic spells, ultimately, she settled on a Necromancy Secret as her trump card.
Thus, when the battle commenced, the Frost Snow Lady bombarded her opponent with relentless attacks. Miss Star-Burial fought back desperately but to no avail. Finally unable to contain her frustration, the severely wounded Miss Star-Burial unleashed her ultimate.
Nine-Ring Necromancy—Scythe of Death.
She sacrificed her own life to summon a phantom of Death, draped in a black robe and wielding a scythe, and then Death with one swing of its scythe took away Star-Burial, herself, and the Frost Snow Lady all in one go.
It was a direct extreme one-for-one exchange, achieving the feat of leaving no one alive.
As a result, the final battle came down to Madeline and Miss Ghost Mask.
As for Miss Ghost Mask, she had already given it her all. Since she had just come out of the village and nobody recognized her, she didn't need to hide her identity, so she went all out with her firepower.
Ninjutsu, Onmyoji, Sword Dao, Archery, Shinto Technique – she employed all five ultimate techniques of the Yingzhou witches, truly going all out with her firepower, but still, it was of no use.
On the other side, Madeline was simply using the Paladin armor that she had long mastered. Her whole body radiated Holy Light, resembling a Brave descending to Earth, tanky as hell, with extremely high attack power. She could even switch from the Paladin to a dark priest in an Apostle form, her Holy Light instantly turning into darkness – disgustingly dirty.
Poor Miss Ghost Mask ultimately lost under the absolute oppression of strength.
With this, the grand battle royale game finally came to an end.
When everyone emerged from the game arena and gathered together to look at the ranking, some had faces of discontent, some were grinding their teeth, some were seething with indignation...
It seemed that everyone was dissatisfied with their results and would have liked another chance, but Dorothy was too lazy to give them a second opportunity to make up for it.
"Well then, let's start the second assessment immediately." Continue reading at novelbuddy
Seeing that time was getting on, she simply declared.
Watching everyone suddenly become solemn, as if they were afraid she would pose another difficult problem, the homebody witch chuckled softly and then reassured everyone by saying,
"Relax, the second assessment is just normal content. All you have to do is look in a mirror."
She gestured toward a huge magic mirror brought over by two assistants as she spoke.
Upon hearing this, the crowd finally breathed a sigh of relief; this loyalty assessment was the same as usual.
Everyone had heard of this magic mirror before; it was a Conscience Devil's Mirror.
When you stand in front of the mirror and look into it, the mirror will reflect your true nature. Therefore, as long as the reflection in the mirror is that of a witch, then the assessment is considered passed.
Yes, it was that simple.
Of course, you can't just think of this assessment as child's play. In fact, the assessment is very strict because this magic mirror can be considered a genuine Divine Artifact, forged by The Third King himself.
Angels mirror the heart, the Great Dragon mirrors the body, and Demons mirror the soul.
Under this mirror, all your secrets will be illuminated clearly, with nowhere to hide.
Therefore, if you truly harbor ill intentions towards the Judgment Court or the Witch World, then this magic mirror will immediately drag you into the light.
So, looking in the mirror is actually just a standard process of joining the Judgment Court. Normally, no one can bypass this step.
However, Dorothy was silent for a moment at this realization.
Well, perhaps, maybe, it seems, she might have overlooked this process.
