Wow, what a stunning beauty!
The aesthetics are off the charts;;;
Whoa, whoa!
She looks about the same age as my daughter, how is she so pretty?
Don’t cross the line; she looks like a minor!
No, seriously, she’s really beautiful.
Feels like she’s overwhelming even the average celebrity?
‘Conpeco’ donated 10,000 won!
Damn, I’m so jealous of the gallery master. She had everything even before her return, damn…
“Alright, Teresa.”
Thus, Shia inadvertently introduced Teresa to her viewers officially.
While Menelapie and Yeonseo were already somewhat known, today was the first time Teresa was being revealed, and the viewers began to chat fervently, curious about the identity of the beautiful girl.
It was only natural.
With a beauty that was hard to believe belonged to a 14-year-old, her sparkling violet hair shining brighter than sapphires or tanzanites, an outfit that clashed with her youthful appearance, and her developed figure…
She was a character that seemed to have jumped straight out of a game that any switch spirits would welcome.
With a beaming smile, Shia brought Teresa in front of the camera, placing her hand on her shoulder and opened her mouth as usual.
“Look at the camera and introduce yourself…”
“What the hell, f*ck off.”
“What the hell? So what?”
“I’m not doing it. I don’t want to.”
“F*ck off, you idiots.”

LMAO
Oh no
Oh no, cursing…
Hahaha!
Did she just curse on the first meeting?
Actually, that’s a reward.
But seriously, her cursing voice sounds amazing?!
Hehe, loli noona…
“…What the hell is this? Why do they like it when I curse???”
“They’re usually like that. Kind of similar to you, right?”
“What the fck are you talking about, you btch!”
Even though Teresa was seasoned in all sorts of situations and experiences, encountering the malicious types of Earth for the first time made her a bit flustered.
“Hehe, then to introduce her to the viewers, this is my witch, Teresa Kaitlyn. Everyone, applause~”
Clap clap clap
Generic clap clap con
However, Teresa didn’t have much intention of being played by Shia’s plan.
You want to introduce me to the stream so I can entertain your fans?
Not a chance. It’s well-known that Shia enjoys making others awkward.
Thinking that, Teresa resolved to provide zero cooperation for Shia’s stream.
What color are your panties?!
“I’m not wearing any, you a*shole.”
?
?
?
Hmm, see? Look at those kids’ brain freeze.
“F*ck, is this what Earth broadcasting is like…? Ugh.”
Oh no.
Oh no.
Oh no…
“Oh, damn it… Honestly, not going outside and just saying women are nice is even worse than a bunch of hyperactive goblins. Ugh.”
Well, did I cross the line?
Oh well, since when did I start caring about that…

“What the hell….”
At that moment, seeing countless donations flood in simultaneously, Teresa took a step back in sudden, unidentifiable fear.
Having faced many episodes, countless monsters, many demon lords, and numerous challenges, the fear she felt in that moment was a complete unknown and the first of its kind.
Maybe what Teresa, who had experienced so many episodes, couldn’t predict were the endless abyss of Susus, malice, and netrunners.
“What the hell? Why the f*ck do they like it when I curse…? Is everyone here brain-dead?”
Whoa, whoa!
Please give me more!
OMG!
Noonaaaa…
Kaitlyn noonaaa!!!
No seriously, what the hell…?
And behind the confused Teresa were Shia, Yeonseo, and Menelapie looking at her with delighted expressions.
“It seems like Kaitlyn is suited for streaming. Receiving such cheers from so many Susus seems like a talent.”
“That’s Teresa for you! Always there to help me!”
“Hehe, Witch. It seems you too have decided to adopt my policy.”
“F*ck….”
Though Teresa wanted to retort, the chants from the swap channel’s dummies and spirits left her in a state of confusion, preventing her usual foul language from flowing freely.
“Now then, it’s time for our delightful, Fugu Dove stew, cooking time has arrived~”
Clap clap clap clap
Generic anticipation for 0% expectation con
Generic Shia punch con
Shia punch!
I’m wondering what dish will be ruined today!
“Seriously, I want those watching my stream to have some expectations!”
Having completed the introduction for Teresa, Shia grinned and announced the start of the cooking segment.
“First up is the disassembly of the Fugu Dove…”
For Shia, meat disassembly was the most troublesome part.
Disassembling and handling meat involves more than just separating the bones from the innards.
Particularly, Shia was strong but lacked delicacy. If she randomly applied her strength to separate the bones and flesh, the bones would shatter, and the tender flesh would all get mangled and lose its flavor.
In that sense, the ones she needed were Menelapie and Yeonseo.
“Shia, I’m done.”
“Hmm, this should be enough.”
Menelapie and Yeonseo were both Heroes.
While the power of a hero was immense, their focus and precision in delicacy were unmatched, and Yeonseo had even previously disassembled an entire orc pork belly, making it not too difficult to disassemble the small Fugu Dove.
If only Menelapie was there, her excellent knife skills could have cleanly disassembled the Fugu Dove, but with Yeonseo’s assistance, the process was smooth.
It was, quite literally, a flawless execution.
Of course, they hadn’t disassembled every single Fugu Dove.
Some of the Fugu Doves that had been knocked out by Shia’s powerful punch were starting to wake up and look around, seemingly unbothered.
Although Shia ate a lot, she certainly didn’t plan to eradicate an entire ecosystem for stew.
She should leave some behind, just in case she’d want to cook other dishes with Fugu Doves later.
“But why the hell do I have to do this…?”
“Well, because you’re a witch?”
“When did witches start stirring stew pots instead of being alchemists?!”
Though Teresa shouted in an annoyed tone, she was diligently stirring the large pot filled with glutinous rice and jujubes, meant for the stew.
Although Teresa had no intention of helping Shia with the cooking, since Shia had already summoned the heroes, and Menelapie and Yeonseo had helped prepare the Fugu Dove meat, Teresa was still stirring the pot.
“Of course, ginseng belongs in the stew!”
Suddenly, she had brought ginseng from somewhere.
“But this isn’t ginseng; it’s a Mandragora.”
“Doesn’t make much difference, right?”
“There’s a massive difference!”
The benefits of Mandragora were far superior to that of ordinary ginseng, a fact widely known in the era of hunters.
If Teresa were to explain the differences between Mandragora and regular ginseng, she’d probably stay up all night, but there was really no need to get that heated over food. In conclusion, although boiling Mandragora would have similar effects in revitalizing energy as ginseng, it could be done.
“I saw on Hunter Wiki that there’s a natural habitat west of Taurus Great Canyon, so since I found a lot over there, I picked them all.”
“Hehe, good job, Shia.”
Menelapie praised Shia as she stroked Shia’s shiny white hair.
“Come to think of it, I haven’t heard of Mandragora in a long time. I used to chew it raw often during the war.”
For reference, one of Menelapie’s favorite foods was Mandragora.
“You chewed on Mandragora? Was that something you could eat raw, Menelapie?”
“If I didn’t eat it raw, I’d die.”
During the war against the demon lord, if they were caught in urgent need of nutrition on the battlefield, one of Menelapie’s most frequently consumed items was dried Mandragora chewed raw.
While it wasn’t outstanding in flavor, it was perfect for an emergency energy boost during battle.
Of course, when Shia and Teresa officially joined the imperial front and the void palace Teresa created was utilized for supplies, more relaxing times allowed for actual food post-battle. Hence, the need for Menelapie to chew Mandragora had diminished.
“Speaking of which, the Mandragora isn’t screaming.”
Of course, Mandragora typically screams loudly when handled, and even the Earth version had the same characteristic.
“Yeah, I knocked them out.”
“Looks like Shia has gotten meticulous and no longer makes mistakes.”
“Of course! It’s been over six months since the return, so it’s time to…”
“But the mouth?”
Huh, mouth?
What’s she talking about?
“The mouth!”
“Huh?”
“The mouth, what about it? When they’re knocked out, you have to block the Mandragora’s mouth, right?”
At Teresa’s words, Shia momentarily gazed off into the distance.
Ah… was that so?
And Teresa didn’t miss the moment when Shia’s gaze suddenly shifted.
“Hey, brain-dead Seongnyeo! When a person faints, they eventually wake up unless they’re dead, right? But if the Mandragora is unconscious, wouldn’t it naturally wake up at some point…?”
Bloop?
As Teresa sharply poked Shia in the belly while filling with frustration, a dull soundwave that could strike their eardrums hit them from somewhere, causing everyone to freeze.
“Uh-oh.”
“Uh-oh?”
“Oh no.”
“Ah.”
?
What? Did the Mandragora wake up???
Mute, mute, mute!
Oh, I knew it…
Damn, run!!!
Cover your ears!!!
And then as the awakened Mandragora displayed a ‘Who am I? Where am I?’ expression, all of the viewers glued to the broadcast, as well as Yeonseo, Shia, Teresa, and Menelapie, sensed the imminent doom upon locking eyes with the Mandragora.
Although the Mandragora’s scream wouldn’t faint the viewers on the other side of the broadcast, the high-pitched scream was enough to terrorize the viewers’ eardrums.
KYAAAA….
WHACK!
THUMP!
SMACK!
Yeonseo, Shia, Menelapie, and Teresa all demonstrated humanly unexpected judgment, reflex speed, and cognition, and upon realizing the Mandragora had come to its senses, they swiftly struck out, preventing the scream from escaping, ushering the creature into the boiling pot with no hesitation.
The entire process took less than a second, and no one allowed the Mandragora’s sound attack to take effect.
Fortunately, before the Mandragora’s scream could erupt, the four beings that transcended humanity sealed its mouth in a superhuman reaction.
“Hey, you crazy red-headed!”
Seeing the Mandragora being boiled in the pot, Teresa took a barely relieved breath before grabbing Shia’s chest instead of her collar.
“Ughhh!!”
“I told you to definitely seal their mouths when you collect Mandragoras! I’ve been saying it for twenty years, and you forgot again!?”
Whoa, whoa!
What’s with that stretching?!
LMAO!
“Eek! So sorry! I forgot!”
“You forget every single time!”
“Alright, Teresa, that’s enough. Shia did respond pretty quickly.”
“That’s right, little witch. If nothing else happens, it should be okay, right?”
Sigh…
Yeah, thanks to the speed of her comrades, they managed to avoid any trouble, and since everyone else stood up for Shia, Teresa released Shia’s chest.
Even though the four were transcendent beings, the Mandragora’s ear-piercing scream was unbearable.
“But…”
Yeonseo’s gaze fixed onto the Mandragoras Shia had caught earlier.
“Does this mean that if this one isn’t blocked off, all the Mandragoras Shia picked earlier… are left unblocked?”
….!
At that statement, Teresa looked at Shia in horror.
Is that true?
For real?
No way.
Is that possible?
Earlier, she had seen Shia gather something like 83 of those Mandragoras…
Yet Shia, with a somewhat sheepish expression, suddenly covered one eye with her hand and winked.
“Eh-heh.”
…?
After observing Shia’s reaction, Teresa was slightly confused but could conclude in 0.1 seconds.
Ah, this girl… didn’t just fail to block one, but she probably didn’t block any at all.
Bloop?
Bloop-bloop?
Boom!
Bloop-bloop?
Then, as if stretching after waking up, the Mandragoras began wriggling and realizing they were not surrounded by dirt, they slowly started to open their mouths wide like a choir.
“…….”
“Oh dear…”
“Oh f*ck, this is not good.”
KYYYYYYYYY!
KWAAAAAAAK!!!
FUMMYYY!
GETDOWNNNNN!
“Ugh..!”
With Teresa, closest to the swarm of Mandragoras, being the first to tumble over, she had to grab her throbbing head to regain herself from an echoing soundwave attack.
Realistically, it seemed like even her nose was bleeding, suggesting part of her brain felt squished.
While it wasn’t life-threatening, the experience of their brain shaking due to the sonic wave was quite annoying in itself.
Meanwhile, amidst all this, Shia was protecting the pot from the Mandragora’s scream with magical energy.
Whaaaaat?!
Oh my GAAAAAAAH!!
AAAAAHHHH!
Okay, I’m muting that!
I knew this would happen!
Phew.
Survivors, raise your hands!

Thus, Taurus Great Canyon was suddenly filled with an unusual chorus of Mandragoras.
KYAAAAAA!!!!
“Hey, you fcking brain-dead btch!!!”
Eek! So sorry!
“Quit sticking out your tongue and get it out, you dumbass witch! I’ll kill you!!!”
KYAAAAA!
The streamer is caught again, LMAO!
Shaking up and down!
Let me get caught too…
In a brief moment, Teresa found the new technology of broadcasting, that showed someone’s hero stories and activities in real time, immensely annoying.
Sure, broadcasting someone’s heroic tales is great, but in other words, it also means someone’s ‘chaos’ is being streamed worldwide in real time.
While her ears felt like they were tearing apart, the sight of those viewers, humans without shape, laughing it up made it all the more unappealing.
“I’m sorry, what’s an apology? Does saying sorry make it all okay? Does having big boobs make it all better?”
“Hear, hear. You still call Shia’s lovely chest such a crude name!”
“The one with blood pouring from both ears is certainly enjoying her ‘big-boob’ talks, huh!?”
Yet luckily, Menelapie had not put an aura on her own body, but had spread a golden aura onto others to stave off the Mandragora’s screams.
Shia’s barrier was specialized to block magical or physical attacks, so the Mandragora’s sonic waves found less success against Menelapie’s golden aura, which was far more effective.
However, during the chaos, Menelapie did not cast her aura on Teresa. As a result, Teresa, with her brain rattling in pain, gritted her teeth as she grew annoyed.
“But hey, why wasn’t I given any aura? Are you discriminating against me? Just because my cup size is smaller? I’m your friend too, right? Huh?”
Why, you may ask?
Menelapie responded to Teresa with a face that seemed to ask why she would question the obvious.
“Just because.”
“F*ck you.”
The two were evidently very close.
