The Whispering Verses Chapter 290: Invitation to the opera

"Xia De, just passing the exam is not enough. I remember that your practical credits are not enough either."

Miss Louisa reminded again that if she thought about it carefully, she actually thought that it was really possible that Shade wanted to be promoted to the second grade:

"If I remember correctly, the first grade requires 40 practical credits. You were given 10 points for time travel and 20 points for the Lakeview Manor event, but there are still 10 points missing."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."

Xia De is not worried about this at all, although he cannot tell the college the truth about the death of the Silver Eyed Man and the evil **** incident, nor can he give the [God's Gift Box] to the college, or the [Forged Philosopher's Stone] The bounty is due to the doctor's work, and the second time travel in 3002 of the Fifth Era Universal Calendar cannot be easily disclosed, but what he lacks most is the so-called accident.

He can definitely go find Iluna after she returns from the Holy See. If she stays with Iluna for two days, she will definitely encounter something worthy of writing a report, and Iluna will definitely not mind giving him the credit. . And even if this method doesn't work, you can still get practical credits by dedicating [Endless Mercury Bottle] directly to the academy.

"You can just think about it yourself."

Miss Louisa whispered, looking at Mia, who put the [Metamorphosis Ring] on her tail again:

"Huh? Why does this ring look so familiar?"

The blonde girl then realized what she was seeing. She was not surprised when she heard that Shade wanted to be promoted to the second grade, but she was shocked now:

"[Transformation Ring]? You robbed the church? No, it's not important. You want to become a woman? How can this be done?"

She even stood up and looked at Shade with wide eyes:

"What are you going to do?"

"No, no, please relax, I don't want to become a woman at all. This ring is still related to Miss Carina."

Shad mentioned the name again.

"Oh, that **** woman! How could she give this to you!"

This is the first time Miss Louisa shows her unladylike side today. It seems that Shade is right. She definitely has conflicts with Carina Cavendish.

They spent the entire afternoon studying in the living room and chatting about other things in their free time. As for today's course, since Shade has been promoted to the second level, this means that his second level Enlightening Spirit Rune still has a vacancy.

So far, "Crazy Light Chaser" has not had any effect, so Miss Louisa is looking forward to the fairy tale "Kiss of the Tree". Just like last week, under Miss Louisa's explanation, Shade read through those ancient pages again. While Miss Louisa sat down to rest, Shade was asked to copy the story.

Getting enlightenment from stories is not something that happens overnight. Only by patiently experiencing and comprehending stories can you gain the time, civilization, and power in the stories.

“Different versions of the story can derive different powers, so different ways of interpretation can also lead to different spiritual runes, spells and thaumaturgy obtained from the story.”

Miss Louisa explained it to Shade very patiently, and also took out other prepared versions of "Kiss of the Tree" for Shade to read and analyze. By comparing different versions of the story, we can find out how the predecessors understood the story, which is very helpful for understanding the enlightening wisdom.

The different versions of "Tree Kiss" reminded Shade that he had obtained many very good books from the remains of the old order. Before sealing the ruins, the cult used special paper rolls and ink to copy down all the valuable things. Luvia, Shade and Iluna each took some.

Shade also shared those books with Miss Louisa, and then took out the "Encyclopedia of Ancient Fairy Tales of Delarion" bought from the charity auction from the study room.

The blonde female writer was very surprised by these books. After obtaining Shade's permission, she also selected a few books to borrow, planning to take them home and read them slowly. And the valuable "Encyclopedia of Ancient Delarian Fairy Tales" happens to also contain the story of "Kiss of the Tree".

It’s just different from the original version provided by Miss Louisa. At the end of the story in this old book, Princess Taweil does not end up being turned into a mummy and sealed in the trunk of an ancient tree, but walks through the door of the ancient tree. , accepted the power of the ancient tree, became the guardian of that strange tree, and used that special power to punish his parents.

"This version of the story most likely appeared in the Fifth Age. In that era, there were many stories where the female protagonist would gain strength at the end of the story, instead of being like the earlier stories where the princess was just a vassal of the prince. .

This is of course because the witches at that time had power. This tells us that studying the differences between different versions and different stories can help us understand the characteristics of civilizations in different eras, and thus better understand what is regarded as the light of civilization. elements of inspiration. ”

Miss Louisa said, Shade nodded, his view was more simple:

"Actually, fairy tales with this kind of ending are more suitable for children. Don't look at me like that. I'm not saying that the ending of the original version is not good, but it may leave nothing to the children. When I don't Say."

He picked up little Mia who was taking a nap in Miss Louisa's condemning eyes, and the orange cat made a dissatisfied "Woo~" sound from its throat.

"Shadow, you almost lost the right to go to the opera with me next week."

The blonde girl said with a smile.

"Watching the opera next week?"

Xia De was a little hesitant. He regarded this as some kind of invitation, but the relationship between the two did not seem to be at this level.

"Yes, look, I've got the ticket."

Miss Louisa dug out two steel-stamped tickets from her handbag and placed them on the table:

"Next Saturday night, which is the first day after the curfew ends, starts at 7:30 and ends at 9:30. That scene happens to have a story related to "Tree Kiss", and I also have something to go to Presented by the Queen Maria Opera House."

As an elegant art, opera is an important part of the entertainment and leisure of the upper class in this era. Tobesk, known as the Pearl of the North, has many large and small opera houses, and some of these informal opera houses are said to provide illegal performances.

There are three more famous opera houses, King Delrayon Opera House, Tobesk Grand Opera House and the Queen Maria Opera House that Miss Louisa mentioned now.

"We have to take the exam next Saturday, so it is necessary to relax the night after the exam, but our classes cannot be delayed because of this. Why not go to the opera together, it can also be regarded as next week's study content, Xia De, Don’t want to go? ”

Miss Louisa waved the ticket and asked hesitantly.
