Black and White Witch (II)

No one knows what the White Witch is all about, because she always appears in white robes with her face covered, and her movements are discreet, never leaving traces that can be traced, and when she doesn't appear, she disappears completely.

No one knows what the White Witch is all about, because she always appears in white robes with her face covered, and her movements are discreet, never leaving traces that can be traced, and when she doesn't appear, she disappears completely. She knew everything about the Black Witch Academy and would appear in the town squares of the fairy kingdom, warning the girls present of the tragic situation of the large number of students who had been thrown out of the Academy: "Don't try to enter the Black Witch Academy again, the majority of those who enter are destined to lose more than they gain. Every black witch in the Academy is a cunning liar!" Some girls began to hesitate, after all, according to the data released by the White Witch, the chances of an ordinary girl eventually becoming a Black Witch were indeed very small, and if she was expelled from the academy in the middle of the process, she would have nothing to offer and her chances of seeking other positions in the kingdom would be almost cut off, a risk she could hardly bear. But more girls did not believe the White Witch. They thought that the identity of the White Witch was a mystery and her words were unsubstantiated and not trustworthy, and they preferred to believe the announcement from the Black Witch Academy that the White Witch had chosen to drop out of the Academy because she could not learn black magic, and now she was too old and ugly to show her true face, and out of jealousy and resentment, she would smear the Academy so viciously. "The chance of eternal youth was not meant for everyone." In the face of the white witch's admonition, these girls loudly repeated the content of the Black Witch Academy's announcement, "You are just jealous that we are still young and have a chance, losers like you who give up halfway are either fools or cowards!" Such voices were so loud that they far overshadowed the White Witch's faint cries, and still, there was a steady stream of young girls who wanted to enter the Black Witch Academy, all with a beautiful vision in their hearts: "If I work hard enough to get ahead, I can continue to be the best of my peers and become the eternally young and beautiful Black Witch." Seeing that her appeal did not work, and even hearing that even the future heir to the kingdom, Her Royal Highness, was interested in entering the Black Witch Academy, the White Witch could only take advantage of a dark and windy night to sneak into the princess's room in the castle. The princess was startled by the sudden appearance of the white witch, but the white witch said that she did not mean any harm, she only wanted to tell the princess the truth about the black witch and black magic. The truth is that no magic in this world can help people stay young forever. The so-called black magic is a one-way spell that draws and transmits life force, transferring youthfulness from a girl who has practiced the first level of black magic to a black witch who has practiced the higher level of black magic. This means that the higher the level of black magic a black witch practices and the more students she teaches, the more youthful energy she can draw from them, stealing the students' life force to maintain her youth. That's why those students look so old, and the more diligently they practice, the faster they age. In the end, only a very few lucky ones were able to break through the limits of the spell and practice high-level black magic themselves, becoming a member of the Black Witch. But such luck is ultimately based on the fact that countless girls have been deceived and sacrificed, and the black witches are bound to tell the lie for generations to come to ensure that there is a constant supply of young girls to dedicate their life force to.
