After listening to Sister Bei's story, Shi Xiaolei finally had a more intuitive understanding of the witch's inheritance.

First, the witches will select some female orphans of suitable age from all over the world and gather them for training.

The reason why the orphans were chosen was, first of all, because the witch was responsible for maintaining the balance of the three realms.

People in high positions must remain impartial. Any selfishness will lead to very serious consequences. In comparison, it is obvious that a carefree orphan is more suitable for this position.

Secondly, it is because the opponents that witches need to face are basically angels or demons. If they are not careful, they may lose their lives. If you choose a girl from a family with healthy parents...

Although they have learned the ability to control their mentality during training, as women, witches still have rich emotions hidden deep in their hearts. They really don't want to see more tragedies like "the white-haired man sends the black-haired man".

After completing the basic stage of training, the candidate witches will face the most critical moment in their lives - the awakening ceremony.

I won’t go into the specific details of the ritual process one by one. To put it simply, under the protection of the senior witch, you enter the demon world equivalent to hell, sign a contract with the powerful demons living there, and then, with the help of With the power he had just gained, he completed his first hunt.

It is necessary to accept the magic power transmitted from the contracted demon to cleanse it, so that the body will undergo a drastic change and evolve into a real witch. In other words, from the moment they enter the demon world until they sign a contract with the devil, the candidate witches are still ordinary humans who have not been sublimated.

Why can't all candidate witches pass the awakening ceremony, and the rate of successful advancement is very low? The reason is here - just like visiting a nuclear radiation area without wearing protective clothing, human beings cannot adapt to the environment of the demon world. If the candidate witches want to move normally in the demon world, they must rely on the shield provided by the moon-shaped pendant. (It’s the thing hanging on Sister Bei’s chest when she transforms into combat form.)

After activation, it will be bound to the user's soul. The witches who have passed the awakening ceremony can use their magic power to drive this pendant, while the candidate witches who have not yet signed a contract can only burn their souls to use this gadget.

It is consumed every moment. The longer the time, the more damage is accumulated. In the end, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, causing irreversible damage to the user's soul.

Some people can persist for seven or eight hours, and some can only persist for three or four hours. Without the magic power provided by the contracted devil as 'fuel', the candidate witches alone... Among the records left by the witch clan, the one who persisted the most The longer one only lasted twelve hours.

The devil cannot use the moon-shaped pendant for a long time without signing a contract. On the other hand, if the shield provided by the moon-shaped pendant cannot last for too long, it will be difficult for the candidate witches to find a suitable devil to sign the contract... After all, the devil world is so big Lord-level demons as big and powerful as Madam Butterfly cannot be encountered everywhere.

The process is very difficult and depends on luck.

Each person can only bind one moon-shaped pendant, which means that if you fail the first time, you will not have a second chance to challenge.

It is said that it is really not easy for the candidate witches to pass the test of the awakening ceremony, and the "success rate" of witches is really low.

"... Candidate witches who have not passed the awakening ceremony will be assigned below to help manage our witch family's property in the world as ordinary people." There was a lot to say, and Sister Bei was a little thirsty. It happened to be 2B When a cup of tea was brought to her, she stopped talking, picked up the cup and took a sip.

"Do you, the witch clan, still have your own industry in the secular world?"

In the background setting of "Bayonetta", there is no mention of this aspect at all. As a passionate game fan, Shi Xiaolei is really a little curious.

"Yes, and there are quite a few." Bayonetta said with a slight satisfaction: "Otherwise, where will our food and drink expenses come from? We have people in monasteries, farms, ranches, chambers of commerce, and all walks of life. Moreover, As far as I know, there are some people who married princes and nobles and became knights and ladies because of their status in managing industries."

"...Why does it sound like a fairy tale?"

"Haha." After hearing Shi Xiaolei's comment, Bayonetta suddenly laughed: "It's just a fairy tale. Did you know? "Cinderella" in the Grimm's Fairy Tales is actually not fictional."

"Eh?"

"The girl named Cinderella in the story once trained with me. Not only did we know each other, but we were also good friends." He leaned lazily on the sofa and put a pair of long, snow-white legs on the coffee table. By changing her position, Bayonetta made room for Connor, who was carrying a carton of milk.

He hugged the sweet-smelling little girl and scratched her belly, making Kang Na burst into laughter.

Turning her gaze back to Shi Xiaolei's face, Bayonetta continued: "When I participated in the awakening ceremony with her, I was sad for several days because she failed. Later, she left the 'Witch's House' , went to a farm to help..."

One day while delivering goods to the castle, Cinderella met a young earl who accidentally got separated from his retinue while out hunting.

Because the earl was injured and passed out on the roadside, Cinderella kindly helped him bandage the wound and brought him back to the farm.

When the young earl woke up and learned that he had been rescued by Cinderella, he immediately developed a good impression of Cinderella.

After all, she was a person who had been trained by a witch. Cinderella's temperament was completely different from the aristocratic girls that the young earl usually came into contact with. In this way, with the contact during the recovery period, the young earl really fell in love with Cinderella, and proposed to her.

It was still the Middle Ages at that time. As a young earl from a noble family, he wants to marry a commoner girl with no noble background? Things are not that easy.

Therefore, in order to realize his wish, the young earl planned to arrange a special drama to block the opposition of his retainers.

That's right, the glass slippers and the ball were all instigated by the young count himself.

As for the magic-related elements that appear in fairy tales...

At that time, there happened to be a witch who was on vacation and went to the farm where Cinderella was to catch up with her. I heard that the good sisters who had struggled together had a sweetheart and wanted to spend the rest of their lives with them. Therefore, the witch not only extended a helping hand without hesitation, but also called friends and found several other witches to work together for Xiande. Rayla helped.

The evil stepmother and sister are both played by witches. The mice turned into horses and the pumpkins turned into carriages, which were also tricks created by the witches. Coupled with the script designed by the young count...the prototype story of the fairy tale "Cinderella" was born.
