The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 182 Blessings and Curses

This made Anna and Anne feel more relaxed; as long as they weren't separated, they had immense courage.

The two sisters walked hand in hand to the witch's book.

Following Ms. Amisa's guidance, Anna placed her hand on the pages of the book.

Unfamiliar characters appeared on the pages of the book, just like those on the letter. She had never seen them before, but she could understand them.

Amisha glanced at it: "Not bad! Outstanding talent in blessing magic and cooking magic, while talent in other magic types is at the beginner level."

"magic?"

This word held an exceptionally strong allure for the two sisters.

"Is it magic like that of the old mage?"

"It's not the magic of a sorcerer, it's the magic of a witch! Your souls are pure, and you have already awakened into witches."

The two sisters were slightly disappointed.

In their minds, mages were synonymous with great power and status, and even ordinary nobles dared not act recklessly against them, while witches were the eternal villains in bedtime stories from their childhood, never having a good ending.

“A witch’s magic is several times stronger than a mage’s! One witch can fight three mages!” Amisha added.

Anna and Anne's eyes lit up instantly.

Stronger than mages? Does that mean they can defeat the Duke?

"Will the academy teach us magic?" Anne asked.

Her face looked exactly like her sister's, but her voice was slightly different, a little hoarse.

Amisha: "Of course, the witch academy is where young witches are taught survival and magical knowledge."

The two sisters suddenly felt that becoming witches was a great idea.

So what if the witch is the villain? In bedtime stories, good always triumphs over evil! But what about reality?
If the bedtime stories were true, those two sisters wouldn't have gone through what happened.

As long as it's strong, that's enough!
"Annie, it's your turn."

Amisha gestured for Anne to place her hand on the Chapter of Talent.

"His talent in curse magic and sewing magic is outstanding, while his talent in other magic types is at the beginner level."

"Keep your talent test results safe. They will be a great reference when you choose the direction of your magic studies in the future."

The two sisters took their test results and left the podium, standing in a corner near the freshmen area.

The dean started calling on the next freshman for the test, and they were still unharmed.

It was as if... as if they had actually arrived at a normal magic academy, where the teachers were testing the students' talents to facilitate subsequent teaching.

Annie squeezed her sister's hand: "Sister, I feel very comfortable here."

Anna was startled. When they entered the Duke's mansion, her sister had said something similar, except that time it was: "This place makes her feel uncomfortable."

Is this really a normal magic academy?
"No, it can't be. How could fate be so kind to us? We still can't let our guard down!" Anna reminded herself silently: "The most terrible evil always hides behind a friendly smile!"

Just as they were thinking this, a big, laughing face came into their view.

"Anna, Annie, hello! My name is Bertha. Congratulations! Your talents in blessing and curse magic are amazing. You will definitely achieve your wishes in the future. I swear on my hair!"

Bertha stroked her soft, silver hair as she spoke.

It's clear she cherishes her hair and takes excellent care of it. The other little witches are also discussing Anna and Anne's talents.

"Curse magic is very powerful, and blessing magic is very popular. It's been many years since I've seen a little witch with these two outstanding talents," said a senior student.

Moran had also read a similar statement in a book. It was said that most of the witches in the Divine Descent Era were skilled in curse magic. However, after the establishment of the Witch Academy, the number of witches with outstanding curse magic talent gradually became as rare as witches with outstanding spatial and mental magic talent, and they mostly appeared among witches who had awakened naturally.

Instead, witches using light magic, healing magic, and blessing magic have gradually become more common.

Based on this, the book suggests that a witch's childhood environment and experiences may influence her magical talent.

Whether it's true or not is still inconclusive, but it's likely that witches with outstanding talent in curse magic are relatively rare these days.

"Fifth place, Bertha!"

"Outstanding talent in divination magic..."

The first little witch to strike up a conversation with Anna Anne turned out to be a gifted individual with exceptional prophetic magic!
If those with talents in blessing and curse magic are relatively rare, then those with talents in prophecy magic are extremely rare.

Historically, there were only a few more prophetic witches than sorceresses.

"Only five have been tested, and there are already blessing, curse, and even prophecy types. Will there be witches this year too?" Ais exclaimed.

The other little witches couldn't help but look forward to it too.

Witches have appeared in two consecutive editions, with three appearing in the last edition. Perhaps this foreshadows a massive explosion in the number of witches!
"Outstanding talent in lightning magic..."

"Outstanding talent in plant-based magic..."

"Outstanding talent in water magic..."

"Outstanding talent in healing magic..."

……

One by one, the new students had their talents tested, but even when the results of the last new student's test were announced, the little witches did not get the results they were hoping for.

There are no witches this year.

Disappointed, yet also finding it normal: "If witches keep appearing one after another, the other races will probably never sleep soundly!"

After the talent test ended, there was a slight awkward silence in the auditorium.

The little witches, who should have been enthusiastically greeting the new students, hesitated for a moment. They could all see that Anna and Anne were uncomfortable and didn't know how to treat them.

The freshmen had no idea what to do next.

Moran tugged at Lavasida's sleeve, hooked Sylph's finger around hers, and poked Lilith's waist: "What are you waiting for? What a great opportunity!"

She took the lead, pulled a stack of flyers from her bag, and walked towards the group of new students.

"Hello, Lucia, welcome to school. I'm Moran, a second-year student. Here, take this, be sure to read it carefully! There will be a new card tasting later, you won't be disappointed!"

"Bertha, hello, I'm Moran. I've heard that those with exceptionally outstanding prophetic talents occasionally receive revelations from fate, a privilege even witches don't enjoy. Is that true? Oh, by the way, here, take a good look at this!"

……

Moran greeted everyone one by one and then handed out a flyer.

Thanks to her exceptional memory, she could accurately call out the names of every new student, tell them their test results, and chat with them for a few minutes.

Lilith, Vasida, and Sylph felt inferior and could only use flyers to introduce their magic to the new students.
