Chereads / Become a Queer Witch / Chapter 4 - Deep Thought

Chapter 4 - Deep Thought

Three days have passed since I fell into another world. It's undeniable that I had trouble adapting to a woman's body. However, humans sometimes always try to adapt to their surroundings, which is why I worked hard to rack my brain to always think critically.

Since my residence was in the Gana District at the northern end of Bayern City, I couldn't help but look for ways to make money to support myself and my daughter, Ariel.

Ah. By the way, Ariel is Daenerys' child. Since I didn't know the baby's real name, I named her myself.

My position in the city right now is continuing the disguise that Daenerys did back then. In the diary, it was written that she was disguised as a widow who lost her husband.

Using the ability of "Shapeshifting", she changed her face into another person. The original beauty's form turned into a brown-haired and red-eyed woman with acne spots around her cheeks, so as not to attract too much attention. However, even so. She could not hide her beautiful and voluptuous curves. Her large breasts and heart-shaped ass have always attracted the attention of men.

Thanks to the notebook Daenerys left behind, I was able to freely learn the "Shapeshifting" ability. I also realized that the Witch title I'd earned was Queer Witch.

Now, for your information. The information I got from Daenerys' notebook was,

Shapeshifting; A Queer Witch is able to metamorphose into anyone without restriction, utilizing their ability to freely change body structure and flesh tissue, allowing them to perfectly mimic a target, including face, body, voice, and scent within certain limits.

These restrictions include height and weight, Queer Witches cannot replicate body proportions that are significantly different from the original, are restricted from changing their height by more than one head from the original, and there are limitations on head size changes, and so on.

While Queer Witches can mimic the facial features and body proportions of the opposite sex, they cannot change their actual physical gender identity.

Full control over the transformation of facial features belongs to the Queer Witch. For example, they can make their face devoid of any features, without eyes, nose, or mouth, or freely change the position of eyes and other facial features around their face. They can even create "fake" facial features on their face such as artificial eyes.

They can accurately remember the shape and temperament of everyone they know and recognize them no matter how well they are disguised.

In other words, this face I'm using is someone else's face. Whether it's the face of a dead person or a close relative of Daenerys, it doesn't change my decision to freely use people's faces.

... However, at the end of the day, you are still yourself.

Before the "Shapeshifting" ability became mine, I was aware of having two other abilities. As it turns out, as time goes by... Witches who successfully accommodate the abilities given to them, advanced abilities will automatically be given to them, according to the Constellation they represent.

The low-level ability I had before was "Goddess of Fortuna". This ability allowed me to obtain revelations from the spiritual realm. Broadly speaking, the energy used by Witches is not mana energy but spiritual energy. In the ability "Goddess of Fortuna", they can communicate with spiritual intelligence, and this determines good or bad, success or failure, from the sentence they repeat seven times in their minds.

In this matter, the ability of the "Goddess of Fortuna" has its own parts.

Stage 1, allows me to see the emotions that a person is feeling in the form of aura colors.

Stage 2, allows me to get clues through dreams.

And for Stage 3, is my ability to get revelations just repeating the same sentence or revelations can be determined through a coin toss in order to know good and bad and truth and lies.

From my "Goddess of Fortuna" ability, I looked like a psychic like the ones in movies.

Although it's not a combat-type ability, it's quite useful for avoiding danger zones.

And the second ability was "Miracle Survivor", which was an ability that allowed me to control my cheek muscles so that others could not read my expressions, thoughts and body language. Queer Witches have almost complete control over their bodily functions.

Their limbs won't move if they don't want them to. Their faces would only show the expressions they wanted to show, with the only situations such as extreme shock or pain causing them to show their true feelings.

Thanks to this ability, it was possible to be the equivalent of an acrobat. And I gained powerful coordination and an almost inhuman balance. However, while agility increased, strength remained at a low level. So close combat with a swordsman would be rash.

... ... ...

"Ah~"

"Boo..."

A wooden spoon slowly flew towards the small mouth of a baby girl. The baby had red eyes and some of her black hair roots were starting to grow.

A white-haired woman only smiled faintly as she watched the baby trying to chew the food the woman fed her through the spoon.

.... I don't know if my heart is bound up with this little one.

Two weeks ago we were just strangers and our relationship didn't seem too deep. However, a modern man like me couldn't possibly abandon baby Ariel, it would be like being a demon.

The baby that resulted from Daenerys' conception with an unknown man made fate feel twisted. I was distraught, but I was able to clear my head. Luckily, I wasn't alone.

These past two weeks, I've been using the money Daenerys made. However, this world is medieval. Although the currency system was implemented throughout the Empire, it was not always evenly distributed. Most commoners still use the barter system, due to lack of intelligence, illiteracy, and literacy. Education and knowledge were expensive in this primitive world.

"To survive with Ariel. I have to find a way to make money for the next month. Relying on Daenerys' residual income is just a temporary luxury...."
