The Birth of a Witch

[Upcoming: I Create Urban Legends in a Cyberpunk World] [Upcoming: No More Angst, Let's Go Home (Quick Transmigration)] Synopsis: Merlin, a Harry Potter fan, transmigrates to a strange world resembling medieval Europe. Accused of witchcraft by the Church, she uses her golden finger to keep the authorities completely under her thumb and save countless innocent women from persecution. Aren't you accusing me of being a witch? Then I'll become one, just as you wish! Not only will I become a witch myself, I'll turn those innocent girls you've persecuted into witches too! In a certain inquisitorial dungeon, pitch-black and grim. A black-haired girl lay dying on the floor. After enduring a long ordeal of torture, there wasn't an uninjured patch of skin on her body. Having lost so much blood, her consciousness was beginning to fade. She thought she might not last until the next day's execution by fire. Just as she was about to lose consciousness, a golden light flashed through the cell. Then a beautiful woman appeared out of thin air, holding a broom and wearing a black mage's robe. Smiling, she lifted the girl's chin. "My poor girl, you have two choices. You can die wrongfully condemned as a witch, or you can become a real witch!" "Are you a demon?" "My dear, my name is Merlin. You may also call me the Ancestress of All Witches. Choose! Become a witch, or die wrongfully condemned!" A story about a mastermind, set in a fantastical version of the Middle Ages. In this bizarre world, an all-out witch hunt leads a transmigrator to bring witches into existence, and from then on the whole world is left trembling under the rule of "magic." Decades later, in a magic academy classroom: "The spell for levitation is G=mg." "The magic-element periodic table goes hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus..."

[Upcoming: I Create Urban Legends in a Cyberpunk World] Synopsis: In the year 823 of the Overproduction Era on Blue Star, an enormous wealth gap has split the planet into two worlds: the surface and the underground. The residents of the surface make up only one percent of the population, yet they own the entire planetary surface. They live in heavenly cities aboveground, enjoying warm sunlight, clean air, and every good thing in the world. The remaining ninety-nine percent live in filthy underground cities, never seeing daylight. In the eyes of the beautiful, noble surface-dwellers, the underground residents are no better than rats in a gutter. The underground residents' only chance to return to the surface is to take part in the annual civil-service recruitment exam held by the surface cities. The jobs are little more than serving the rich, yet countless people compete for the chance to enjoy warm sunlight and clean air. That year, Ren Ming, a girl from Earth, took the exam in hopes of embracing the sun again. She ranked first in the written exam, as well as in both the first and second interviews, earning a place in the final round. But no one told her that the final round had already been decided in advance. The reason? The girl who got the job was pretty and could sing... Ren Ming had spent everything she had on the exam, only to get this result. She was utterly disheartened. As someone who had transmigrated from Earth, she couldn't bear the thought of never seeing sunlight again. On the day the results were announced, she resolutely crossed the city boundary at noon to embrace the sun. Sunlight was private property. Illegal sunbathing was punishable by death. As she stood in the sunlight, waiting for her sentence, she suddenly noticed a strange holographic screen appear before her, displaying the words "Urban Legend Generator." And so, Pandora's box was opened. Theme: Saving women is saving humanity's future!
