So I Became a Witch and Started Doing Daily Quests

Chapter 228: Grace's Reward

"This is impossible—"

As an apprentice from a witch family, Lowe-Silverfox actually understood the difficulties they faced better than the commoner apprentices themselves.

In addition to objective material disparities like money, magical knowledge, and cultivation resources, the limitation in vision was an even greater obstacle preventing commoner apprentices from climbing higher.

Courses related to the "Laws" were often offered as electives in the third year of apprenticeship—even though everyone knew that only by mastering the "Laws" could one have a chance to break through to a full-fledged witch.

However, compared to commoner apprentices who could only gain some basic knowledge from textbooks, apprentices from families who could access the power of the "Laws" through family channels—their starting lines were no longer even on the same track.

Just like Lowe-Silverfox. Starting from last year, he had already received the opportunity to enter the Silverfox family's "Dream Secret Realm" to comprehend the "Nightmare Law." Although he had not made any tangible progress yet, even just such an opportunity was something countless commoner apprentices could not even dream of.

It was precisely because of this that those witch apprentices who struggled to comprehend the "Laws" could only choose to switch tracks in the end.

They would study the Bloodline Studies, and by converting their own bloodlines into alien ones that aligned with their "Witch Aptitude," they would transition into the path of a "Warlock," taking the road of bloodline ascension.

Compared to the path of witches, the general ascension route of warlocks might be easier to execute.

However, this general ascension path relied too heavily on the potential of one's bloodline. Once that potential was exhausted, the path of the warlock would come to an end—unless one had the financial resources to support the vast cost of continuous bloodline upgrades.

Through repeated "blood changes," if one could truly evolve their bloodline through atavistic transformation, then the potential of the warlock path would be no less than that of a regular witch.

However, the price required to do so was beyond estimation for ordinary people—

"Hoo..." He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

After pulling back his wandering thoughts, Lowe-Silverfox turned his gaze to Janna in the dueling arena. It was precisely because he clearly understood the many disparities between commoner apprentices and those from family backgrounds that he was so shocked by Janna’s ability to wield the power of "Law Fragment."

Even though he could not confirm it yet, no explanation other than this could account for why Janna's "Mind Allure" witchcraft could directly control the opponent's "thoughts" to such an extent.

With a loud noise, under Nia-Flame’s "sneak attack," Marlowe-Haig, who had been entangled with the Flame Guard, was sent flying by a single punch. He subsequently collapsed in the dueling arena just like Andre-Green, unconscious.

Seeing this, Belle-Moonshadow, already isolated and alone, stepped out from the shadows. She quietly looked at Janna standing behind Nia-Flame and gave a helpless bitter smile.

"I concede."

Boom—With Belle-Moonshadow’s surrender, Nia-Flame, who had been under the control of the "Mind Allure" witchcraft, also collapsed heavily to the ground, falling into unconsciousness as well.

Clap clap clap clap—

—Just as Janna was preparing to disperse the contract power and return the five contracted creatures to the Spirit Realm, the sound of applause came from outside the dueling arena.

"This is the most spectacular apprentice duel I’ve seen since I started teaching 'Black Magic Defense.'"

The one speaking was none other than Grace-Eva, who was now standing inside the dueling arena.

Upon hearing this, after sending all the contracted creatures back to the Spirit Realm, Janna composed herself and smiled as she bowed to Grace-Eva.

"Thank you for the praise."

Ding—The familiar mission completion notification rang out. Just as Janna raised her head again, she quickly glanced at the rewards listed on the mission panel in her mind.

[Today’s Mission: Complete the current witch duel challenge and emerge victorious (Completed);

Mission Reward: 200 points of talent experience, 800 points of skill experience, Physique +0.3;]

"This time it's physique—"

Feeling the warm current continuously surging through her body and clearly sensing her physical health had improved, Janna’s mood naturally brightened a little.

Clap clap clap clap—

Perhaps because Grace-Eva took the lead, the group of apprentices who had been watching the battle attentively also began clapping on their own.

Especially the commoner apprentices who had always looked up to Janna—they felt as though it was them standing victorious in the dueling arena. At that moment, an unparalleled confidence surged in their hearts.

"This duel challenge was very difficult and at the same time, an extremely excellent case—"

As she spoke, Grace-Eva turned her gaze toward Janna not far away and continued:

"Therefore, aside from the usual reward of additional question tokens, I will also present you with a special reward in my own name."

As she said this, a black notebook about the size of a palm appeared in Grace-Eva’s right hand. With a gentle toss, the black notebook, controlled by the "Hand of the Witch," landed in front of Janna.

"This is a summary I compiled in my early years on the key elements of witch combat. Take it as a reward for this occasion."

Not having expected any reward in the first place, Janna looked at the black notebook in front of her with a hint of surprise in her eyes upon hearing Grace-Eva's words.

After all, compared to the inheritance of knowledge, combat experience was often accumulated through repeated trial and error.

Especially for someone like Janna, who had no "mentor," Grace-Eva’s gift could silently save her from many detours.

In fact, in the face of unexpected future crises, the experience and knowledge in this notebook might very well become the key to Janna’s survival.

"Thank you, Professor!"

After receiving the black notebook, Janna once again bowed deeply to Grace-Eva, expressing her heartfelt gratitude.

"No need to thank me. But, you'll be responsible for healing their injuries later. Don’t leave any lingering issues."

"Understood, Professor."

After placing the black notebook into the Thorn Bracelet, Janna began cleaning up according to Grace-Eva’s instructions.

After two rounds of dueling challenges, there were now four people unconscious—aside from the still-unconscious Vivian, they included Nia-Flame, Marlowe-Haig, and Andre-Green, all knocked out by Janna.

If Belle-Moonshadow hadn’t conceded decisively, she might have been the next one knocked unconscious—
