Gladys looked up and found that Laura was raising her fingertips, and a snow-white dove landed on "her" finger.
Laura's slender white hands held the white dove. At this moment, even though "she" was wearing a tattered and disheveled dress, "she" looked like an angel standing in the temple, pure and flawless.
The pigeon's eyes reflected Laura's beautiful face. It jumped gently on Laura's fingertips, cooed happily a few times, and was very affectionate to Laura.
Gladys was close, staring at Laura without blinking. Gladys clearly saw "her" thick, long eyelashes, like crow feathers, casting a layer of dark color on her golden eyes.
Noticing Gladys's gaze, Laura curled her lips and turned her eyes away from the pigeon. "My Lady Witch, this little guy is saying hello to you."
Gladys was not surprised that Laura could talk to pigeons.
As a Mary Sue princess, Laura can talk to all animals. All the animals that have seen her like her and want to be her pets.
"Coo, coo, coo, coo" The pigeon suddenly jumped heavily on Laura's fingertips and called to her.
Then he pointed the pigeon's head at Gladys and cooed loudly.
Gladys didn't understand what the pigeon was saying because the pigeon was a symbol of peace and light, not a familiar of the evil witch, and the system's translation function couldn't translate the pigeon's language.
Gladys and the pigeon stared at each other. "What are you cooing about? Haven't you seen an evil witch who turned into a mushroom?"
"It asked Her Majesty the Witch if she needed water. It knew there was a spring in the southwest." Laura explained to Gladys understandingly.
The pigeon was right, Gladys was indeed lacking water now.
Mushrooms can only grow in humid places and should be kept away from direct sunlight.
As time passed and noon approached, the sun in the sky became hotter and hotter.
As they walked, the sunlight fell on Gladys, making her body drier.
"Mrs. Witch, do you want to go to the spring to drink some water?" Laura glanced at Gladys, who was wilting in her arms.
Why should she, the evil witch, listen to Laura?
so......
Gladys retorted fiercely, "My slave, I do not want to drink the spring water. I command you to take me to the spring to bathe."
“…”
The beautiful little princess didn't wait for Gladys's instructions and covered Gladys with the witch's wide hat before the rainbow mushroom in her arms completely wilted.
The pigeon stood on the branch, watching the backs of the man and the mushroom gradually disappear.
When the beautiful princess had completely left, the snow-white dove flapped its wings, preparing to fly over the thorn bush that had inexplicably grown a few minutes ago.
However, just as the dove flew above the thorn bush, the thorn bush suddenly changed, and black branches and leaves attacked the poor dove.
The dark branches bound the pigeon, rustling and throbbing. As the pigeon struggled frantically, the sharp thorns of the black branches pierced into the pigeon's heart and blood vessels.
The red blood overflowed and fell. Not long after, the pigeon was drained of blood by the dark branches and leaves, and turned into a dark blood bird wandering in the dark forest. It changed from a creature of light to a dark creation belonging to that adult.

[Just now, the host ordered Princess Laura to carry the host while they traveled, to help the host get the witch's wide hat, and then to help the host clean the mushroom body. These actions have increased the host's abuse value by 89 points. If they perform a few more abuse actions, they will be able to exchange them for the clown scissors.]
During the system summary report, Gladys was soaking comfortably in the spring water.
The cold water soaked through Gladys' body, and she felt as if every pore of her body was soaked. It was so refreshing and soothing. Gladys subconsciously scooped up the water with her hands and poured it on her red hair.
Gladys blinked. Huh? Hands? Hair?
Back to human form!
Gladys stood up suddenly, then quickly squatted down, covering her body, and sat back in the spring water.
She is not wearing any clothes now.
When Gladys transformed into a mushroom, her clothes, which were too big for her body, had fallen off her body and were probably now tucked away in her wide witch hat.
She looked up and saw the witch's wide hat placed on a stone nearby.
Although she has hands, she can go and get it.
But being the evil witch she is, she just won't take it.
"Lola! My slave! Come here quickly!" Gladys shouted.
At that moment, the beautiful and kind Princess Lola was standing beneath a tree. She raised her hand and gently touched the tree with her fingertips. In an instant, the tree's original green branches and leaves were devoured, replaced by pitch-black branches and leaves.
"Coo, coo, coo, coo" The dark blood bird transformed from the white dove flew over and landed on the dark trees, and an ominous and evil aura spread.
Laura admired the sight.
At this moment, Gladys's arrogant voice rang out, "Lola! Where are the people? Come here quickly! Help me get my clothes."
The dark branches and leaves suddenly retracted, leaving only a bare, dilapidated dead tree and a dark blood bird that flapped its wings in confusion.
Laura walked towards the spring. His voice came from behind the stone, "My Lady Witch, I have put your clothes into your hat for you."
"Really?" Gladys' tone revealed three parts of indifference, three parts of contempt, and four parts of disdain.
"I forgot, Laura, please help me get it out." Gladys' figure appeared, she swam over and lay on the bank of the spring, her red hair wet, and her face raised towards Laura.
The water light flickered.
Laura was stunned and frowned, "Why are you not wearing any clothes?"
Gladys said as a matter of course: "I was just soaking in the spring water."
Gladys: "We're all women, why are you so excited? If you're jealous that my breasts are bigger than yours, just say it."
Laura pursed her lips, took out Gladys's witch robe from her witch hat, threw it to her, and turned away.
"System, did you feel that the princess' tone just now was strange, as if I had flirted with her?" After Lola left, Gladys muttered as she put on her clothes and shook her wet red hair.
"Host, this is due to Princess Lola's personality. Princess Lola has received a perfect education in court etiquette since she was a child. This holy and beautiful princess will never allow close contact with others."
"In the original book, the unrestrained succubus could only hold Princess Laura's hand at most. The only intimate gestures between the men who admired Princess Laura and her were limited to kissing her hand. Only the princes of neighboring countries who were engaged to Princess Laura could hug her..."
"However, all creatures fell in love with her, regardless of gender, so the polite little Princess Laura was forced to witness many enthusiastic and extreme suitors of love."
"Because of some unpleasant experiences in the past, Princess Laura is very averse to overly unrestrained behavior. So, just now, Princess Laura may have thought that you, who were not wearing clothes, were a pervert coveting her."
Gladys: "Is there a pervert as beautiful as me?"
"Although, host, don't forget that the evil witch Gladys is a pervert, and you have to play the role of a pervert."
"The evil witch Gladys is a psychopath who combines sadism, voyeurism, sociopathism, narcissism, paranoia, and so on."
"Most importantly, Gladys is a pervert who specifically abuses Laura."
While listening to what the system said, Gladys walked around the stone and came to Laura.
The beautiful little Princess Lola stood beside a dead tree. She pursed her lips slightly, staring at the withered branches without blinking, her eyes calm.
Gladys thought.
The little princess was so kind that she even felt pity for the dead grass and trees by the roadside.
"Lola, come here." Gladys took out the broom.
After she ended her mushroom form and turned into human form, the first thing she did was to take Laura back to the tower.
The broom floated in the air, and Gladys jumped onto it with smooth, graceful movements. She sat sideways, stretched out her hand, and hooked her fingertips towards Laura, "Sit next to me."
Laura looked at her but didn't go over immediately. "Ms. Witch, your hair is still wet."
The system said considerately: "Ding Ding, host, you can consume 17 points of abuse value to use the drying spell."
"Didn't I exchange a drying spell for one when I was processing potion ingredients?" Gladys was confused.
"That was last time. This time is different."
Good guy, one-time.
It's a scam system, it's shit.
Gladys chose to air-dry her hair.
Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard-earned.
Every point of abuse value is her treasure!
"What does my wet hair have to do with me tying you back to the tower?" Gladys flew to Laura on a broom, grabbed Laura's arm, pulled "her" onto the broom, opened her arms, and hugged Laura tightly, very recklessly.
The girl's body was pressed against Laura's back, her hair was wet and the moisture drifted to his neck.
Laura's back stiffened, and her tone was hard, "What are you doing?"
"Tie you back to the tower." Sensing Laura's rejection, Gladys hugged Laura even tighter.
She's the evil witch targeting Lola! Lola doesn't like close contact, so she's crazy about getting close to Lola.
The broom took off, and the wind from the high altitude blew randomly onto Gladys and Laura.
Gladys's wet hair was steaming with the fresh scent of orange grass, which tickled Laura's nose.
"My Lord Witch, if you don't dry your hair you'll catch a cold."
Gladys: “Oh.”
Then he hugged Laura tightly and said, "Don't think I don't know you want to jump on the broom and run away while I'm drying my hair."
Laura: What misunderstanding do you have about a princess of a kingdom?
"My Lady Witch, I don't think I can escape now." Laura said.
Although He could actually just disappear on the spot.
"Don't even think about it." Gladys snorted coldly.
“…”
After Gladys's broom was upgraded, its flying speed tripled and its efficiency increased a lot. Not long after, Gladys saw a tall tower standing deep in the border forest.
"My slave, take my witch's hat and prepare to land."
[Congratulations to the host for successfully completing the main quest, Kidnapping the Princess. Rewards are as follows: 100 Witch Crystals and a mysterious invitation to school.]
After the system finished speaking, a golden invitation letter with a pitch-black rose fire seal appeared in Gladys's hand.
"Invitation letter for admission?" Gladys looked at the invitation letter and found that she couldn't open it.
System: "Opening the invitation will cost you 300 points of abuse or 1,000 witch crystal coins."
Gladys once again cast a vicious look at Laura.
Coincidentally, Laura was also looking at her.
Laura looked at Gladys with her golden eyes, her expression unfathomable.
After being blown by the wind, Gladys's hair was dry, but a little frizzy, with dry red strands sticking out.
Laura raised her hand and put the wide witch hat that Gladys had asked her to keep on Gladys' head.
"Did I ask you to put the hat on my head?" Gladys said immediately. "You are so disobedient. I will punish you."
Laura looked at her and lowered her eyelids.
What strange punishment will this strange evil witch order?
"Pick up my broom and sweep the entire tower." Gladys threw the broom to Laura.
Laura's eyelashes trembled as she caught the broom from Gladys. Logically speaking, the things a witch cares about most are: broom, wand, witch hat, witch robe, and familiar.
Since it is something important that I care about, I will not just throw it to outsiders.
And Gladys actually let Him sweep the floor with her broom.
It happens again.
She didn't seem to care about the things that ordinary witches would care about.
In other words, no hesitation.
It’s like treating Him as someone close to you.
Laura looked at Gladys's back, her golden eyes filled with confusion.
“…”
Gladys threw the broom to Lola, on the one hand to abuse Lola, and on the other hand to punish the stupid broom that could not recognize its owner in the Dark Night Forest.
only......
She thought of a question, "Wait, why doesn't my broom repel Laura? Isn't it bound to me?"
[Of course, it's because Princess Laura is loved by all things. Everything she touches, as long as it has a soul, will fall in love with her.]
Laura's halo as the heroine is so awesome, which is why the evil witch Gladys in the original book was jealous of Laura to the point of going crazy.
After all, before Lola appeared, the evil witch Gladys looked in the magic mirror every day, and the magic mirror told her that the most beautiful and charming woman in the world was Gladys, and it was a lifelong fan of Gladys. But after Lola appeared, the magic mirror actually abandoned Gladys and fell in love with Lola. It was really outrageous.
[The host understands the evil witch's feelings. Very good. Now, the next main quest begins: "Lock Princess Laura in the tower attic." The current quest progress is 0.0%. Please start as soon as possible.]
After a while, Laura found Gladys.
"Mrs. Witch, it's been cleaned." Laura said slowly.
"So fast?" Gladys was a little surprised, but the abuse value was received normally, so she didn't pursue it further.
"By the way, has the attic been cleaned?"
Laura smiled obediently, "I've cleaned it."
Things with souls will be afraid of Him and will obediently please Him. Laura didn't move at all just now. She was the broom that cleaned the tower.
Gladys nodded. "Very good. You will live in the attic from now on."
In order to prevent the princess from resisting this arrangement, Gladys grabbed Laura's hand and dragged her into the tower attic. Because Gladys remembered that Laura was averse to contact with outsiders, she held Laura's knuckles tightly and interlocked her fingers with hers.
"System, how's my performance? Has the abuse value increased?"
"Huh? Strange, the abuse value didn't increase. Perhaps it's because your hand-holding behavior wasn't abrupt enough for Laura."
Gladys thought about it.
She reached out again and hugged Laura, a very tight bear hug.
Laura frowned when she heard Gladys say she wanted to lock him up in the tower. Not only did this witch treat him like a slave and order him around, she even made him live in a shabby attic...
Laura was surprised.
But he didn't expect Gladys to suddenly hug him tightly again. The citrus scent of the girl's body filled him, her red hair was tied to his chest, and her petite body was warm.
Then, she let go of Laura and said with a villainous look on her face:
"You stay in the attic and don't run away!"
The door slammed shut.
Laura: ...What do you mean?
First she punished him and then hugged him. Did this evil witch want to tame him?
[Task Summary: The attic door was slammed shut by the evil witch, making a loud noise. The simple attic ceiling even trembled, and the wooden beams fell into dust. The beautiful Princess Laura finally realized her miserable situation.
She lowered her thick, long eyelashes, bit her lips, which were as red as roses, and trembled. She finally understood that the evil witch Gladys was particularly unkind to her. From today on, she was locked in the attic by the evil witch Gladys and completely became Gladys's slave...
While the system was reciting with great emotion, Gladys was observing Laura's situation through the crystal ball.
She doesn't have the voyeurism of Gladys in the original book, so she doesn't usually use the crystal ball to peek.
But now she wanted to see if Laura was resting peacefully after being locked up in the attic by her.
What if...what if Laura imitates the original evil witch and jumps off the tower to commit suicide, what should I do then?
The crystal ball reveals the scene in the attic.
The attic space is small, and Laura is quite tall, slender, and has a model figure. Her head will hit the ceiling if she is not careful, which looks very cramped.
At this time, Laura was standing by the attic window.
The attic window is also narrow and small, in the shape of an inverted triangle.
A ray of evening light shone in through the window, falling on Laura's tall and beautiful nose and hitting her snow-white and flawless skin.
"She" looked into the distance, her golden eyes were distant, her face was delicate, and she revealed her fragility.
"She" seemed to be sad about her situation.
Gladys took a look and after making sure that Laura couldn't jump out of the window, she turned off the crystal ball with confidence.
Poor Princess Laura laments in her heart: Father, Queen Mother, dear Brother Alec, brave Knight Linmo, kind and handsome Prince Jack, powerful Mage... When will you discover where I am? When will you come to save me?
Over there, the system finally finished reading the mission summary. Then, the system voice spoke cheerfully.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the task of locking Princess Laura in the tower attic. The reward is as follows: a magic wand crafting blueprint.]
Gladys: "No witch crystals?"
System: "Why do we need witch crystal coins?"
"Okay, so where are the wand-making blueprints? Why haven't they appeared yet?"
System: "Because the contents of the wand crafting blueprint are too complex, it will take some time to load. Host, take a nap and it will be available the next day."
“Also, remember to check in and pray before going to bed.”
In the original book, Gladys is a witch who believes in evil gods.
So now Gladys must complete the daily task of praying to the evil god and checking in.
However, Gladys herself does not believe in evil gods.
What a bullshit evil god, it's almost like a cult. In the original book, the evil witch Gladys believed in the evil god too much, so her heart was invaded by evil emotions and she became a thoroughly vicious villain.
The most annoying thing is that she needs to spend 30 witch crystal coins to unlock the sample prayer materials, and the sample prayer materials are must-buy items. If she doesn't recite the sample prayers, then the check-in will be invalid.
Gladys had a blank expression on her face as she randomly picked out a sample prayer check-in from the template materials.
After reciting the sample text, Gladys added, "Great Evil God, Handsome Evil God, Honorable Evil God, thank you for blessing me in kidnapping Princess Laura and bringing her back to the tower."
After completing her daily prayer check-in, Gladys hugged her black cat and fell asleep on the soft quilt.
Gladys was exhausted after kidnapping the princess from the castle, so she fell asleep immediately.
The words of her prayer before going to bed were transmitted to the evil god word for word.
"Thank you for helping me kidnap Princess Laura and bring her back to the tower..." The girl's sweet voice sounded beside his ear.
