Chapter 144: Oz—The World's Most Powerful Magician!

The girl shook her head.

“No, I’m not a magician. I’m just an ordinary girl named Dorothy. I was brought here by a tornado from a faraway place—at least, I think it’s far away.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, and I have no idea who this ‘Eastern Witch’ is.”

The Munchkins looked disappointed.

For the second time today, they had mistaken a girl for a powerful sorceress.

The Northern Witch, however, smiled and said:

“Dear Dorothy, no matter what, it was your house that crushed the Eastern Witch, giving Aurora the opportunity to defeat her.

“You and Aurora both helped free the Munchkins from the wicked witch’s tyranny. So, I must thank you as well.”

Dorothy’s eyes widened in shock.

“I… I killed someone?”

Only after the Northern Witch and the Munchkins explained everything did she start to grasp the situation.

She asked more questions and soon learned she had arrived in a land called Oz, an isolated country surrounded by desert.

“This is terrible! I can’t go home!” Dorothy’s face fell in distress.

“Where is your home?” the Munchkins asked.

“In the Kingdom of Sas. On the grasslands.”

The Munchkins and the Northern Witch exchanged confused looks.

None of them had ever heard of such a place.

Aurora sighed.

“Seriously? You all live in an isolated country and you’re asking her where she’s from? No matter what she says, you wouldn’t have heard of it anyway.”

Of course, if Rhine were here, he’d probably be mentally sighing in relief:

“At least she didn’t say Kansas. Good thing this world doesn’t have an America.”

Dorothy’s eyes welled up with tears.

A deep, overwhelming loneliness washed over her.

She was surrounded by strange people in a strange land, far away from her aunt and uncle.

Was she really trapped here forever?

Would she never see them again?

The kind-hearted Munchkins became sad as well, hurriedly pulling out handkerchiefs to wipe their own tears.

But then—

“Dorothy, I know how to send you home,” Aurora suddenly declared.

Dorothy’s eyes lit up.

“Really?!”

“Yes. Your homeland, the Kingdom of Sas, is on the Western Continent. It’s not far from my homeland, the Rose Kingdom—only two or three kingdoms away.”

The girl instantly brightened.

She had never been so happy to meet someone from outside of Oz!

Even though she was far from her aunt and uncle, at least she wasn’t alone in this unfamiliar world.

There was another girl her age, someone also from beyond Oz, someone who had also been mistaken for a hero.

Dorothy eagerly asked:

“But Aurora, how do we leave Oz?”

Aurora smirked and pulled out a Silver Shoe.

—The very one the Eastern Witch had been wearing before she was killed.

After slaying the witch, Aurora had naturally claimed it as her spoils of war.

“These are the Eastern Witch’s shoes. They have powerful magic. If you wear both, you can teleport anywhere in this land within three steps.”

“They can easily take you home.”

“However—”

Aurora narrowed her eyes.

“The other shoe is with my teacher. He was sent to Oz, just like me.”

“My teacher is a powerful magician. Once we find him—whether we use the shoes’ magic or his own abilities—he can definitely send you home.”

Dorothy’s eyes sparkled.

She had hope now!

“Then where can we find your teacher?” she asked eagerly.

Aurora turned to the gentle-faced old woman beside her.

“Honorable Northern Witch, the Munchkins say you are a kind and wise witch who excels at divination.

“Can you tell me—where is my teacher?

“And one more thing—Maleficent, the Black Witch, is also somewhere in Oz. Can you locate her as well?”

The Northern Witch removed her hat, placed its pointed tip against her nose, and spoke in a ceremonial voice:

“Where is Aurora’s teacher?”

At once, the hat transformed into a stone tablet, with large white letters appearing on its surface:

“In the Emerald City.”

The old woman turned to Aurora.

“It seems you must travel to Emerald City. Your teacher has landed there. That city lies at the very heart of Oz, ruled by Oz himself.”

“Who is Oz?” Aurora and Dorothy asked at the same time.

Aurora, having grown up in the Rose Kingdom, had never heard of Magician Oz.

He had left her homeland when she was just an infant.

The Northern Witch explained:

“You’ve noticed that this land is called Oz, haven’t you?

“Well, Oz himself is a magician.”

Dorothy hesitated.

“Is he… a good magician?”

“He is a kind sorcerer. But whether he is truly human, I cannot say. I have never seen him in person—and almost no one has.”

Aurora’s focus was different from Dorothy’s.

“Is he a powerful magician?”

If Oz was truly skilled, then perhaps he could help her and her teacher defeat Maleficent.

“Absolutely.”

The Northern Witch spoke with unwavering certainty.

“Even if all four witches of Oz combined their power, we still wouldn’t be a match for Oz.”

Aurora raised an eyebrow.

“So that’s why this land is named after him.”

The Northern Witch then tried to divine Maleficent’s location, but failed.

Aurora wasn’t surprised.

A witch as powerful as Maleficent likely had methods to block divination and hide from prophecies.

“My dear Aurora,” the Northern Witch said gently, “My magic cannot locate this Black Witch Maleficent.

“But since you’re already heading to Emerald City to find your teacher, you can ask Oz for help.

“He is extraordinarily powerful—if anyone can find Maleficent, it’s him.”

Aurora nodded.

“I understand. But I doubt that Oz’s magic is stronger than my teacher’s.”

The Northern Witch sighed.

“My dear Aurora, be careful what you say.

“In Emerald City, people revere Oz. If you claim your teacher is stronger than him, they might think you’re insulting him.”

She lowered her voice.

“Oz is possibly the greatest magician in the world.”

“If anyone surpasses him, it can only be Oz’s own teacher.”

Aurora’s competitive streak flared up.

“Hmph! Just a tiny isolated kingdom that’s never seen the outside world.”

“My teacher is a legendary magician, famous across many kingdoms!”

She crossed her arms.

“I don’t believe Oz is stronger than my teacher.”

“If he were truly so powerful, why didn’t he free the Munchkins from the Eastern Witch?”

The Northern Witch sighed.

“You’ll see when you reach Emerald City.”

She offered a wager.

“If Oz’s magic is weaker than your teacher’s, I will personally apologize to you.

“If it’s the opposite, then you will apologize to me—if we ever meet again.”

Aurora smirked.

“Fine! It’s a deal.”

And so, Aurora and Dorothy set off on their journey to Emerald City.

One sought a way home.

The other sought to reunite with her teacher, hunt down Maleficent, and break the curse on the Rose Kingdom.

Two girls.

Two different dreams.

One shared journey.
