Otaku Witch

Chapter 2042 - 1035: Job Entrance Test

Dorothy suddenly swung the broom beneath her in mid-air and came to an abrupt stop.

"Am I not approaching work with the right attitude today?"

The homebody witch rubbed her eyes, then turned her head to speak to her sisters beside her.

In response, Sophia, who had been eagerly awaiting this scene for a long time, smiled without saying a word.

Honestly, these interns came a bit later than she expected. She thought it would only take a week or two for someone to arrive, but it turned out to be a month.

However, the Pure White Witch’s Eye of Fate scanned the interns below and found there were about eight or nine hundred of them, and the magical aura emanating from each was not weak. Most of them were at the level of being close to or already a Great Witch.

At this sight, Sophia was also somewhat surprised.

After all, the usual annual quota for internship recommendation letters from the academy is only 1,000 people, and now, with these eight or nine hundred people gathered here, the ratio is quite shockingly high.

Moreover, was the quality of these members serious? Could it be that they have already encompassed most of this year’s Tower of Shine members, and the few who didn’t come might not be unwilling but have family businesses to inherit?

The Pure White Witch pondered this.

After all, she had presided over the issuance of several internship recommendation letters before, so she naturally knew what level these interns should normally be at. The quality of the people before her now was ridiculously high.

This could truly be considered a monopoly on talent.

"Did they come late because they were competing for quotas at the academy?"

Sophia could only speculate this way, as there was no other reasonable explanation.

And who would have thought that the once undesired internship recommendation letters, fiercely guarded by every society, would become so sought after this year?

While the Pure White Witch smiled silently, the other sisters were also surprised as they glanced at the crowd below, quickly recognizing many familiar faces within it.

"Um, I think they’re all outstanding graduates from this year’s Witch Academy, and they seem to be holding internship recommendation letters?"

Mia glanced at the throng of people below and remarked.

"Internship recommendation letters? That sounds familiar?"

Upon hearing this, Dorothy was taken aback, then she realized something and turned her head towards Sophia beside her.

Yes, about a month ago when they went to the student union to handle procedures, Senior Christina and the others seemed to be discussing something about internship recommendation letters, and Sophia even chatted with them briefly.

However, the homebody witch didn’t quite understand it at the time, as she was just a freshman who hadn’t attended many classes at the academy and had no clue about its rules and systems, so she thought nothing of it, just busy boasting with the seniors. Thinking about it now...

Sophia, you’ve set me up again.

The homebody witch looked at her housekeeper with wide eyes.

Seeing the young lady finally realizing what was happening, the Pure White Witch spread her hands.

"Young lady, who was it that said you have a Warship Workshop and were planning to build a Legendary Battleship, and that you had the Witch of the Forest joining? Were these not your words?"

Sophia said, deflecting the blame with a suppressed smile.

Dorothy: "...."

The clown is actually me, with my overly honest habit of never lying—I really need to change that.

"So, what exactly are these internship recommendation letters for?"

Seeing as the people had already arrived, the homebody witch didn’t feel right sending them away carelessly, so she could only ask.

"Little Fairy, these are treasures, alright? Those who can obtain internship recommendation letters from the academy are this year’s most outstanding graduates, endorsed by Witch Academy for their professional competence. They are undoubtedly top talents, and getting into some guilds isn’t even possible for them. Didn’t you just say you were short of people and were even thinking of poaching from other workshops? Now that you’ve benefited, quit complaining."

Senior Mia laughed and scolded while explaining to the homebody witch.

On the side, Madeline thought for a moment and then spoke up.

"However, these interns are indeed outstanding, but they’re just too outstanding, and quite young. They might be a bit hard to manage, and there could be a good number of unruly ones—I already spotted several problem children down there."

After all, the Succubus Witch was the former Disciplinary Committee Chairwoman, responsible for maintaining order within the Witch Academy. Her perspective differed from others; while others saw talent, she saw character.

But this is normal. How many geniuses are there without temperaments? Each of those few hundred people below is truly one in a million from the millions of students at the academy. If they didn’t have some personality traits, that would be strange.

Moreover, Madeline calling others problem students when her own Armed Society is the largest delinquent and violent group at the academy is quite ironic.

After listening to her sisters’ explanations, Dorothy finally let out a sigh of relief.

So, they’re here for job applications, nearly giving me a heart attack—I thought my identity was exposed and ardent fan groups had come to block my doors!

She thought this to herself.

Besides, the Alchemy Workshop is indeed experiencing a shortage of people. Although the buildings made by Noelle Rose were all automated and some manual work could be replaced by autonomous Mechanical Puppets, the Witch Battleship is too high-end. For now, many extremely intricate components still require skilled witches to craft by hand, as machines cannot entirely replace humans.

Not to mention the numerous research positions that demand mental work.
