Otaku Witch

But Her Majesty the Queen, she....

Yeah, she's really good for nothing except fighting.

Before ascending to the upper echelons, Her Majesty was infamous in the Knights Order for being a troublemaker, breaking rules, and disrupting order was just daily routine for her, and she couldn't even handle regular patrols properly, always making things more chaotic than they were.

Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore, after all, she is still our queen, and we have to maintain her dignity, not to mention Lord Moon God was indeed brought back by her, and that merit alone is enough to last her a lifetime.

However, when some knights who had too much free time decided to investigate the former professions of the first batch of the Descendants of the Moon God, they were shocked; they found that a large number of the Descendants indeed originated from construction-related professions.

It seemed like the rumors of Lord Moon God favoring construction and civil workers were true.

So, they kidnapped a bunch of retired workers overnight to act as teachers and the whole Knights Order started cramming for a career change, who cares about practicing with a war hammer, learning civil engineering was the real deal now.

And then it turned into this.

The former martial arts training ground had become a brick-moving site, and the entire Moon Rabbit Knight Order had turned into Dust Rabbits, the once valiant knights were now disheveled and covered in dust, with only the corners of their eyes and mouths still clean.

Sidwell was among them, and she, the Moon Rabbit Queen, had been leading the dust clearing these past couple of days.

Well, after all, when Lady Dorothy was building their club's residence, she had helped move bricks too, claiming to have vast experience in brick-moving, confident that she could guide these knight brothers and sisters on how to move bricks more effectively.

Plus, she was aware that Lady Dorothy would need a construction team later on, and she thought it best to retrain the Knights Order early, so they could be ready to start working when needed.

The Moon Rabbit was just that loyal, as a knight of the king, Sidwell felt it was her duty to relieve the king of his worries.

Even though the king hadn't mentioned anything about the construction team yet, it didn't stop her from preparing in advance.

"emmmm... what are you guys doing?"

Just as Sidwell was thinking about surprising the king once the Knight Order had finished its transformation, a familiar voice rang in her ears.

"Lord Moon God... oh, my king, it's you."

The Queen of the Moon turned around, and saw the familiar face of her own deity, she had wanted to greet the deity, but then she saw the familiar look in the deity's eyes, and Sidwell immediately realized that it was her witch master who had arrived.

After all, Lord Moon God's eyes had always been firm and kind, just like the bright moon, clear and gentle, but now Lord Moon God's eyes seemed very pure, much like the sun, flawless and majestic.

Clearly, it was the king's consciousness that had descended upon Lord Moon God, for the so-called Moon God was but one of the king's incarnations.

Suddenly, Miss Moon Rabbit stood straight up, as if awaiting inspection by the king, like a knight. Unfortunately, she was covered in dust, her face, once pretty and delicate, was now splotched with dirt, hardly looking the part of a knight.

"Yes, it's me."

Dorothy nodded and then curiously looked over at the pitiful sight of those Moon Rabbits, and asked Sidwell.

"What are you doing? Playing in the mud?"

"No, we are learning construction techniques? My king, didn't you want a construction crew? I am trying to retrain the Knight Order here."

Before the transformation was complete, their master caught them in the act, which left Miss Moon Rabbit somewhat embarrassed. She spoke somewhat sheepishly.

Dorothy: "....."

She looked at the several rows of crooked, uneven "walls" on the training field and fell silent.

You call that construction skill?

Seeing a few old Moon Rabbits tied up at the sides, repeatedly sighing and shaking their heads at their "students'" work, the Homebody Witch felt that she was beginning to understand everything.

And when the group of Moon Rabbits covered in dust saw their "Moon God" arrive, they all turned to look at her, their eyes filled with expectation.

The knights, of course, did not have Sidwell's keen sense to distinguish Dorothy from the Moon God; they thought their efforts had moved the deity, and now Lord Moon God was here to bless them.

Dorothy could only nervously scratch her head in response. She held back for a long time but ultimately couldn't go against her conscience to compliment the Moon Rabbit knights on their wall construction skills.

In the end, she could only muster a question for Sidwell.

"So, why aren't you using magic or Magic Martial Techniques, and just thinking about building walls by hand?"

As a top-tier Silver Race, the Moon Rabbits were inherently strong; they were only seen as weaker in high-level combat compared to the Golden Calamity, but they didn't lack mid- to low-end combat power.

And the Knight Order of the Moon, as the pinnacle of strength for the Moon Rabbit Clan, naturally had rigorous selection criteria, even more demanding than choosing Armed Witches from among the witches.

In Sidwell's Moon Rabbit Clan of several million, only a hundred or so were selected for the Knight Order in the end.

This is truly a one-in-ten-thousand selection.

Picked on high standards, naturally, they're all high-quality talents; there isn't a single weakling in this group of a hundred. Each person's aura is very strong, capable of rivaling a Great Witch.

Even if due to differences in races, divergence in mana, levels of magic, and other reasons, these Moon Rabbit Knights might not be as powerful as real Great Witches, they definitely wouldn't be considered weak.

At the very least, they should be able to take on three at a time.

So if you calculate it like that, this Knights Order has at least the combat power of thirty Great Witches.

"So why don't you lot of masters use magic? Why resort to using your bare hands? Building a wall? Isn't that something a simple Earth Wall Spell could handle?

And why specifically use those tiny hammers to beat the dust? Where are your war hammers that could smash an enemy's skull? Can't those be used to beat dust?

That rabbit over there who's carving, just by looking at your hands, I can tell you're good with a sword. Drop that small carving knife, pick up your sword. Isn't a sword used for carving a basic skill?"

"Ah, this..."

Sidwell was a bit dumbfounded by what her master just said.

"Can we use magic or Magic Martial Techniques for this? But isn't the requirement approved by Lord Moon God mastering the skill? If we use magic martial techniques, isn't that cheating? How are we supposed to hone our skills then?"

Miss Moon Rabbit scratched her head in surprise, asking as if she had just discovered a new world.

The other Knights of the Moon silently watched their embarrassed lord, one after another holding back their anger.

Dorothy had no doubt that if it weren't for the status of Miss Moon Rabbit as the queen, she would definitely have been taken to task by these senior knights today.

As soon as they heard that they could use magic martial techniques from Lord Moon God, the Moon Rabbit Knights instantly got excited. They tossed aside those useless mortal construction tools and began pulling out their familiar old buddies from their personal armory.

"Earth-splitting Slash."

"Ice Sword."

"Steel-cleaving Knife."

...

After a bout of earth-shaking commotion, when the dust cleared, what appeared in the training ground were...

Well, just some sturdy little boxes with beautiful relief sculptures on their surfaces.

Although it seemed like the Knight Order of the Moon had a long way to go before they could transform into a high-level construction crew, it was at least much better than their previous pitiful state.

"Hmm, this is much better."

Dorothy nodded, relieved that she no longer had to offer insincere praise.

"Alright, let's get things sorted, we've got work to do."

She turned to Sidwell and said so.

"Finally got some work, huh? Did you hear that? Hurry and get ready."

Sidwell immediately perked up, calling out to the Knights Order nearby before turning back to her master.

"Master, where are we moving bricks to this time? Is it a big project?"

As she said so, she skillfully put on the bunny-eared safety helmet that Dorothy had casually made for her previously.

The safety helmet was polished to shine, reflecting images, after all, this was equipment bestowed by the queen.

It seemed that the queen, who not long ago still held the spirit of the Knights of the Moon, had adapted really quickly to her identity as a brick-moving, dust-beating rabbit.

Behind her, the entire Knights Order of the Moon similarly polished their queen-style bunny-eared safety helmets, each one ready to head straight to the construction site.

Dorothy: "..."

"Well, this time it's not about moving bricks, the construction business hasn't started yet, this job is about being a bodyguard."

Now it was the turn of the homebody witch to feel embarrassed, as she pulled at the mask on her face and said.

...The homebody witch is in embarrassment....
