While Marie set out anew, meanwhile.
At the center of Horai Mountain, an immortal mountain.
ㅤ
ㅤ
At its peak stood a single castle.
However, unlike typical castles made of bricks, this one was different.
ㅤ
ㅤ
Perhaps it could be best described as a candy castle.
Every component of the castle was made of sweets like cookies and cream.
ㅤ
ㅤ
Creating a castle out of sweets should, by all accounts, collapse under its own weight.
Yet, due to her special enchantment, the castle stood without crumbling.
ㅤ
ㅤ
Now, seated on the throne in this unique castle was a beautiful woman.
She appeared to be around 18 years old, roughly the same age as Marie.
ㅤ
ㅤ
Unlike Marie, however, she exuded an alluring, mature aura.
She was tall, with a full bust, and her hair was a soft, flowing blonde.
ㅤ
ㅤ
A triangular hat adorned her head, signifying her status as a Witch.
ㅤ
ㅤ
『Martha-sama! The Witch of Jealousy, Martha-sama!』
ㅤ
ㅤ
Scampering in front of Martha came a cookie shaped like a person.
The human-sized cookie seemed to possess its own will and began speaking to Martha.
ㅤ
ㅤ
The Witch known as Martha was. . . . . . sitting on her throne, sucking on a lollipop.
ㅤ
ㅤ
『Martha-sama, it’s urgent! There’s an intruder on Horai Mountain. . . . . .』
ㅤ
ㅤ
Martha then removed the lollipop and aimed it at the cookie soldier.
She abruptly aimed the stick towards herself and. . . . . .
ㅤ
ㅤ
『Aaaaaaaaahhhhh!』
ㅤ
ㅤ
The cookie soldier was pulled in with great force.
Martha grabbed the cookie and clenched her fist.
ㅤ
ㅤ
“Who do you think you are, speaking without my permission? You’ve got some nerve.”
ㅤ
ㅤ
With just a slight clench, cracks appeared on the cookie soldier’s body.
ㅤ
ㅤ
『Eeeek! I’m sorry, Martha-sama!』
“Also, don’t call me the Witch of Jealousy, alright? I hate that name; it’s a moniker that old hag Vrimir stuck me with.”
『I apologize, Martha-sama!』
ㅤ
ㅤ
Martha released her grip.
The cookie soldier distanced itself from Martha and lowered its head to the ground.
ㅤ
ㅤ
“Alright, speak.”
『Y, Yes. . . . . . Lady Martha, there’s an intruder on Horai Mountain.』
“I know. It’s a magician, isn’t it?”
ㅤ
ㅤ
The spell that was cast over the entirety of Horai Mountain had been lifted.
Only a magician could perform such a feat.
ㅤ
ㅤ
“Lifting a curse? Sounds like a high-level magician. . . . . . So, do you know who it is?”
『Y, Yes. . . . . . they call her Marie.』
“What?! Marie? As in, the Witch of Gluttony?!”
『The Witch of Gluttony. . . . . .?』
ㅤ
ㅤ
Just as Martha had been dubbed the Witch of Jealousy by her master, Marie also had a name.
The Witch of Gluttony, Lovmarie.
ㅤ
ㅤ
“Why is she here?! That wretched!”
ㅤ
ㅤ
Martha’s beautiful face turned a shade of pure rage.
It seems there was some history, some grudge between Martha and Marie.
ㅤ
ㅤ
“No, but. . . . . . Marie is supposed to be dead. . . . . . Could she have reincarnated? No, but. . . . . . Either way, I don’t have enough information right now. Hey, you!”
『Y, Yes! What is it?』
“Go find out if Marie really is the Witch of Gluttony. I’ll lend you some soldiers.”
『Y, Yes. . . . . .! Right away!』
ㅤ
ㅤ
The cookie soldiers leave.
Martha angrily chews on some candy.
ㅤ
ㅤ
“If Marie has truly reincarnated. . . . . . Hmph, fine. This time, I’ll be the one to kill her. We’ll settle once and for all who’s the best!”
ㅤ
ㅤ
Martha harbored a competitive spirit towards Marie.
Unfortunately for her. . . . . . Marie was completely unaware of this.
