Otaku Witch-Chapter 683 - 481. Swollen Dorothy
"I'm just so freaking excited."
After the magic-equipped brain was completed, Dorothy opened her eyes and sighed with such sentiment.
Of course, she definitely wouldn't just stick her finger into her skull for fun, especially since she, now possessing only a mortal's body besides her brain, didn't have the same strong self-healing ability as vampires.
Feeling slightly disappointed about this, she could only pull out a stack of math papers from her pocket and start doing mental calculations.
To hell with scratch paper, to hell with calculators, my brain is a supercomputer.
The fact that she could eyeball challenging math problems that would take most people several hours or even a day or two to solve and come up with answers instantly was intoxicating.
As she calculated, she began to feel that mortal mathematics was just too easy for her, so she began pulling out a stack of magic theory papers to work on instead.
One-Ring papers, too easy, next.
Second Ring, boring...
Three-Ring, dull...
...
Six Rings, getting interesting now.
...
Nine Rings, alright, that's more or less my limit.
After a satisfying session of problem-solving, Dorothy put down her papers, having more or less gauged the limit of her current mental strength.
Hmm, I'd estimate it's about eighty to ninety percent of my real-world witch brain's performance.
The issue is that the witch brain is a growth-type equipment, constantly self-evolving with the witch's growth, whereas my magic-equipped brain is fixed-level, meaning if I want to upgrade in the future, I'll need to get my hands on a higher-level Angel's Brain template.
Moreover, the real-world Dorothy is just a tiny chicken with 40,000 magic power; her brain is merely that of a juvenile witch, not even as developed as Alice's. Being only a half-witch, if she compares herself to pureblood witches of the same age, she's almost "mentally challenged."
Of course, mentally challenged as she might be due to insufficient hardware, her software is powerful. When it comes to her own brain, Dorothy has nearly exhausted all of its performance to the limit, even occasionally overclocking it for fun.
As for Alice...
Alas, my foolish little sister truly wastes her high-end hardware, playing only minesweeper or spider solitaire all day, even occasionally dumping files into the C drive, causing it to turn red and frequently crash the system.

In summary, the brain is a wonderful thing, but alas, not everyone knows how to use it.
This time, the Angel's Brain evolution template that Dorothy used was still the one obtained from the Church years ago, a low-ranking angel's template.
It's just a pity that for the past five hundred years, both sides were in their developmental stages, and during the small-scale wars, it was mostly mortal forces clashing; neither side's trump cards moved much, so Denisha didn't get access to a higher level angel template, which is quite regrettable.
However, the lowest tier of Angel's Brain, after seven upgrades inspired by Dorothy's ingenuity, performs much stronger than the original, which is barely enough for her current use.
"Although it's a bit less computational power, it seems that the Angel's Brain, designed for easy management of faith, has a hefty Inspiration Attributes boost, which suits me better than the Magic Girl Brain with its balanced enhancements," Dorothy reflected after completing a pure mental calculation test and testing other aspects.
The original Three Great Calamity Races each had their strengths: Angels represented the heart, Great Dragons the body, and Demons the soul, leading each to evolve differently depending on their inherent power.
The Angel's Brain, representing the heart, provides more of an Inspiration Attributes boost, the Demon's brain specializes in boosting Mental Attributes, while the Great Dragon's is better at Precision control.
As for the witches, the fourth calamity to arise, they're like humans; their initial attribute allocation is rather mediocre but possess endless possibilities, all depending on the evolution path one chooses.
Dorothy's strongest attribute has always been her somewhat peculiar Inspiration, hence the Angel's Brain, with its inspiration bonus, indeed turned out to be the most suitable brain magic equipment for her.
Anyway, with her new brain in place, the Homebody Witch was overflowing with ideas, her Inspiration active and bursting; she couldn't wait to create something new.
Moreover, with her Inspiration so active, her control over faith, the solidified form of the Power of the Heart, was much more effortless.
Having done a basic evaluation, Dorothy was quite satisfied with her new brain.
"Congratulations, Lady Dorothy."
Koreya who had been standing by, finally sighed with relief and offered her congratulations, then posed a question.
"So, how many plugin slots does your brain magic equipment have, Lady? Have you thought about what cognitive enhancement plugins to install?"
"Plugins?"
Dorothy, with her newly upgraded brain, took a moment to catch on, but her new brain worked faster, promptly retrieving the recently-learned magic equipment knowledge from the Memory Palace.
Magic equipment was akin to the path of Mechanical Ascension, in plain terms, the transformation of the body into that of a robotic one, with the brain being the mainframe. Now that the mainframe hardware was in place, matching software was necessary to fully exploit the mainframe's performance.
After all, not all Magic Girls are like Dorothy, who could perfectly control her evolved brain immediately post-transformation; most Magic Girls are more like Alice, clueless about how to properly use their new brains.
Their mortal intellect limited the performance of their brains.
