Otaku Witch

"Damn, what’s going on? Did Your Highness Wendy fail to cast her spell?"

"Impossible, how could a big shot like her make such a low-level mistake."

"Then why didn’t she unleash her ultimate move."

"It looks to me like Your Highness Wendy’s spell was stolen by Miss Sophia."

"No way, it’s bad enough if your girlfriend gets stolen, can magic get pilfered too?"

"Ahem, Miss, please tell us your story."

.....

Most spectators in the stands watched the duel in confusion.

But in the arena, Witch Wendigo was already numb.

She watched in disbelief as the opponent’s pure white Angel’s Ring suddenly enlarged by several circles, then some mysterious power connected to the enlarged ring. In a daze, Wendy seemed to really see an invisible hand placing a crown on the opponent’s head, with the crown overlapping the opponent’s Angel’s Ring.

One was virtual, and the other was real.

But that wasn’t the main point; the main point was that clearly it was her magic, consuming her magic power, so why was the spell’s effect affixed to the opponent?

Wendy shouted in bewilderment in her heart.

In the past, she truly had never heard of magic that could steal someone else’s magic; the closest was only techniques like Mental Domination from the Spiritual School, where people possess or brainwash me, or even refine me into a puppet.

But the principle behind those techniques was actually controlling others to cast spells, tantamount to using others as game characters to activate skills.

But now, Wendy was free, the spell was cast with her own will, yet the effect strangely changed, and even acted upon the opponent — a technique she had never heard of before.

However, there was no time to ponder why now; the urgent task was to quickly stop this magic.

One must know that Pride Sovereignty is a Twelve-Ring Forbidden Curse. Even if she cast an incomplete version, it still consumed a huge amount, and Wendy’s total magic power was only about 480,000 mana — she couldn’t withstand this drain for too long.

Miss Wendigo was trying to terminate the spell, but found it impossible to stop, as the spell’s control was already out of her hands, she could only watch her magic power in the mana pool deplete at a rapid rate visible to the naked eye.

"Damn it, can’t drag this on, or I’ll be drained of magic power and die."

Wendy knew there was not much time left in this match; she must finish it quickly.

Just like how humans can suddenly die if they excessively exhaust their physical energy, if a witch’s magic power is drained too heavily, that’s fatal too.

Normally, her magic power is only enough to sustain Pride Sovereignty for five minutes, meaning if the match cannot end within five minutes, she would perish from magic power depletion.

But the problem was she would not only have to bear this massive magic power consumption, but also spend extra magic power to fight, so this five minutes would have to be halved, only getting two to three minutes at most.

Hmm, no time to waste, get moving, must act now.

Witch Wendigo no longer hesitated, she directly charged at the pure white angel hovering in the sky.

Only then, she realized her optimism was misplaced.

She merely calculated the magic power consumption, without considering the mana circuit occupation.

Casting magic requires consuming magic power, and the flow of magic power occupies the witch’s mana circuit in her body, more so for powerful spells.

And Pride Sovereignty, as a Forbidden Curse, naturally occupies much of the mana circuit.

As the daughter of the Devil King and Queen, Wendy’s magic talent was outstanding; the number of mana circuits in her body was far ahead of peers, but even so, nearly sixty percent of her mana circuits were occupied now.

Hmm, the occupied circuits were mainly in the torso area, while there’s still some free circuit in the limbs, after all, Pride Sovereignty wasn’t battle magic martial skills, it didn’t need to flow through the limbs.

This was good news, meaning Wendy at least retained forty percent of her strength.

The problem was the witch’s mana pool is in the abdomen area; for magic power to conduct to the limbs it must pass through the main circuits in the torso, but now these main circuits were already occupied, how could magic power flow to the limbs?

Only Sophia’s slight intervention had already pushed Wendy to the brink.

Starting with a Burn Mana + performance occupation debuff, directly turning a genius into a waste, but in the arena there’s no time for the thirty-year east river thirty-year west river drama.

"Overload, give me overload operation."

Witch Wendigo gritted her teeth, chose to forcibly overload the mana circuit in her torso to conduct magic power to the limbs.

Thus, the previously weakened limbs regained strength with the magic power influx, but the cost was....

"Ah....."

Even though Wendy possessed the Succubus Witch talent of converting pain into pleasure, at this moment she still screamed out in agony, for the pain at that instant surpassed the conversion limit of the talent.

After all, mana circuits are more fragile and sensitive than blood vessels and meridians in the body; accelerating blood flow could cause high blood pressure and make your blood vessels cramp in pain, the pain from overloading mana circuits is several tens of times greater than blood vessel cramps.
