Otaku Witch

Chapter 664: Feng Shui and Backfiring



"Toi...toilet?"

Even Konoe Maki, who was usually dissatisfied with the Heaven's Guard Pavilion, was stunned and doubted if she had heard it wrong.

Well, this little witch's audacity keeps surpassing her expectations. She thought it was bold enough for someone to dare dismantle the Heaven's Guard Pavilion, but she never expected something even more outrageous was in store.

However, for witches, toilets aren't exactly necessary facilities, right?

Once witches' mana value reaches a certain level, the necessity for biological activities like eating, sleeping, and excretion greatly diminishes, even becoming entirely unnecessary. They can just survive by continuously consuming mana.

If eating and sleeping can still be continued for enjoyment, then excretion? Unless someone consumed a powerful laxative or something equally toxic, there shouldn't be any witch who has the need for that.

Hmm, how could a perfect witch need a toilet?

Nevertheless, regardless of whether witches need toilets, turning someone's sacred place into a toilet can't just be described as common provocation; it's a declaration of endless animosity.

"Do toilets need Feng Shui?"

Konoe Maki remained silent for a moment, then curiously asked.

Hmm, although it somewhat betrays her role as a guardian, to be honest, the director herself actually hopes to see this broken Heaven's Guard Pavilion turn into a toilet. If it indeed gets built, whether or not witches have excretion needs, she would come to visit, even if she had to drink a lot of Mana Water.

"Uh, was that the main point?"

Dorothy was also taken aback by the director's question.

Goodness, no wonder you're a rebel favored by the Dragon Vein, Director. That gloating smile on your face really needs to be hidden well, it's almost giving you away.

The Homebody Witch thought this in her heart, but outwardly, she answered seriously.

"Of course, Feng Shui matters. What building wouldn't consider Feng Shui? Look at this place, a filthy, Qi-stagnant location naturally destined to be a giant cesspit, perfect for building toilets or garbage disposal facilities and such."

"Rest assured, Director, our Guild is professional in Feng Shui. Even for a toilet, we can make it a wonder of architecture, ensuring that it turns waste into treasure by thoroughly purifying the accumulated, foul-smelling garbage over the years."

Dorothy said this.

She wasn't lying. Indeed, the Feng Shui here at the Heaven's Guard Pavilion is dreadful—stagnant water, heavily decayed, and heavily odorous. In her Observing Qi Vision, it's quite an ominous place.

This place is a heap of Death Qi, Resentment runs rampant; it seems to be a burial ground.

After investigating a bit about the legends surrounding the Heaven's Guard Pavilion, she quickly found answers from Japan's legends.

The location of the Heaven's Guard Pavilion is actually where the final battle between the Three Nobles and Yamata no Orochi took place, where Susanoo defeated Yamata no Orochi with the Kusanagi Sword.

This is the graveyard of the Dragon Vein, no wonder the Feng Shui is so ominous.

The Heaven's Guard Pavilion was later built by the Three Nobles as a seal to prevent the underground malevolent Qi from spreading and polluting others.

Initially, Susanoo had her descendants, called Imperial Descendants of Japan, reside in the Heaven's Guard Pavilion not for selfish reasons, but to use their Serpent Slayer bloodline to repress Yamata no Orochi's Resentment.

The intention was obviously good, but even Immortals couldn't predict events thousands of years later. The task was carried out well by the original descendants, but later, it gradually changed adversely.

It's unclear whether the so-called royal authority blinded their eyes, leading them astray into the swamp of desire and power, or perhaps the underground Resentment of Yamata no Orochi corroded them silently.

Regardless, the descendants of the former Dragon Slayer have now become a new Evil Dragon.

The Homebody Witch indeed plans to dismantle the no-longer-useful Heaven's Guard Pavilion and transform it into a toilet.

Though it sounds absurd, as she just explained, this wonder-toilet can slowly purify the foul Qi here, gradually turning the remaining strength of the last generation Yamata no Orochi into nutrients for a new serpent.

This is indeed a great thing for the future of Japan.

After hearing her explanation, Konoe Maki also remained silent.

The Japanese Witch somewhat believes in Feng Shui theories; although the director doesn't understand Feng Shui, she's well aware that the Heaven's Guard Pavilion is a filthy place, so she sides with this mysterious little witch's words a bit now.

"You mentioned you bought the land deed from the Amaterasu Shrine, could I have a look?"

Konoe Maki remembered what the little witch just said, and asked again.

Although the Amaterasu Shrine hasn't managed affairs for a long time and the actual management of Japan has become the Heaven's Guard Pavilion, no matter how powerful the latter is, the officially recognized Lord by the Witch World is still the Amaterasu Shrine.

If this little witch truly possesses a land deed issued by the Amaterasu Shrine, theoretically, they have the right to dismantle the Heaven's Guard Pavilion and build a toilet.

But hasn't the Amaterasu Shrine been uninvolved for many years? Why is it suddenly taking action now?
