The Whispering Verses Chapter 503: Dancing, fireworks and priests

"Actually, I still have something to ask."

Shad said that Carina Cavendish was in a particularly good mood tonight, so she did not blame Shad for not understanding the style:

"Ask."

"What on earth did Queen Diana want to do? Why did she give me such a precious thing? I don't believe it. She had no purpose at all."

"I'm glad you realize that."

Miss Carina whispered. She moved closer to Shade and put her head on Shade's left shoulder. The two of them swayed slowly to the dance music.

Due to the change in position caused by the rotation, she can now see Lesia directly. Smiling slightly at her niece, Lesia immediately smiled back, but her expression looked like she was angry.

"Probably tomorrow, the news will come out that Sachs Cavendish was convicted of treason. I don't want to involve you in politics, but there are some things you need to know. Although now the fire-leaper Larous III She was the queen, but she was not the first queen, and not all the current princesses and princes were born to her."

"I understand, using that card is not to win over me, but to show my goodwill to you. Although you are not too involved in politics, as a powerful duchess, your existence itself can affect some things."

Xia De nodded slightly.

"Very good."

She whispered in his ear, her red hair brushing Shade's cheek:

"I'm glad you understand this. It's unbelievable that two months ago I didn't understand anything, but now I am more knowledgeable and smarter than anyone my age."

"The past time has given me strength, and my journey of time exploration is different from that of a normal investigator."

This is the first time that Shade has officially admitted this matter in front of Miss Carina.

"So that's it."

She didn't seem to care, she moved her head away from Shade's shoulder, and looked at his eyes closely with her golden eyes:

"Seriously finish this dance with me, Shade, this is the only one. Otherwise, I'm worried that little Lesia will curse me in a more vicious way in her heart."

"No, she won't."

"Shad, you don't know her better than I do. I held her when she was born."

Although Shade didn't know Miss Carina's specific age, when Lesia was born, she was only eight years old at most.

"Knight, be serious and don't step on my toes."

She said with some annoyance, and the two changed positions:

"Shad, quickly become stronger. This world will become more and more dangerous. I can't protect you forever."

She whispered something, but suddenly smiled:

"Of course, if you can perform better in this dance, maybe I can give you some rewards."

"For example"

"How about asking Tifa to change into a dress for the party, and dance with you before the ball ends?"

She smiled, holding Shade's hand and swaying to the dance music:

"That must be really fun."

Miss Carina did what she said, and after dancing, she left the banquet hall on the second floor.

Seeing that the Duchess was rarely dancing with a man, others naturally wanted to go up and try their luck, but were stopped by Miss Carina's maids.

As for Shade, Miss Carina had just left, and Lesia stood up immediately.

Shad first looked in the direction of Luvia. Because other people's card games were still going on, Luvia was still working, while Dorothy was chatting with her writer friends, obviously not I will compete with Lesia for this opportunity.

So after a long absence, Shade danced with Lesia again. The last time the two danced was on a cruise ship in Coldwater Harbor. They danced on the deck in the afterglow of the sunset and then they encountered the Fishbone Pirate Ship.

Xia De quickly threw away this memory.

"Who was the man I forced away with a gun just now?"

Shade finally found an opportunity to ask this question. This dance music was a little more lively, and Shade was still not very good at dancing, so Lecia led him to dance.

Compared with Miss Carina, Lesia's height can only be regarded as within the range of normal women of this era. After wearing high heels hidden under her long skirt, the top of her head is only higher than Shade's eyes.

"Is he your suitor? His malice is too obvious."

Xia De asked casually, still recalling the conversation with Miss Carina just now.

"Of course not. Do you still remember the murderer you found in the Prophet's Association who hurt Agelina?"

Lecia asked softly, her face slightly red, not sure whether she was excited or shy.

"Of course I remember, Saxe Cavendish's lover."

"Yes, as for the younger son of Earl Dimock who was obviously malicious towards you just now, he has always liked the girl you found out. Do you understand?"

"Got it, little Dimmock is a fool."

Shad joked, and Lesia also laughed. The color of her hair is very similar to Miss Carina. The bright red color is like a dancing flame when the girl dances slightly, attracting Shade's eyes.

"But are you planning any dangerous adventures recently?"

Lecia asked again.

"Why do you think so?"

Xia De raised his eyebrows.

"Dorothy said that you seem to be very busy recently, but you obviously don't have many unprocessed commissions, so we think that you are planning a dangerous adventure like Operation Cold Water Port again."

She raised her eyes and looked at Shade:

"I hate it when people lie to me, so you don't have to give me answers, just keep yourself safe."

Looked around, leaned forward and kissed Shade gently on the face:

"Agelina said she wants to dance with you, remember to invite her later."

So after Lesia, Shade first danced with the sixteen-year-old princess, and then finally danced with tonight's real female companion, Dorothy.

They all seemed to be good at dancing in high heels, but Shade looked a little clumsy in flat leather shoes.

Dorothy was followed by Luvia, who took time out to dance with Shade before going back to work. While dancing, in addition to whispering about Shade's adventure with the doctor last night, the purple-eyed girl also teased Shade about how tired he was tonight:

"How many other girls are waiting to dance with you?"

Shadow thought Luvia was mocking him, but he didn't expect that when he wanted to go find Dorothy and sit on the sofa to take a rest, a strange girl actually invited him to dance.

Shade did not refuse out of politeness, but the invitations kept coming. After Shade danced with three strange girls, he excused himself because he was tired.

But Dorothy could not be found at this time. After asking around, I found out that these Tobesk writers had been invited by Queen Diana to chat on the third floor, and they could not get down for about half an hour.

Lecia has also left. She was originally waiting for Shade to come find her when he had time, but it seemed that something happened that needed her to deal with, so she could only regretfully leave the banquet first.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Shade talked to Luvia and left the second floor, intending to go to the courtyard to breathe fresh air.

The Yodel Palace covers a large area. It is normal for strangers to break in and get lost. Although this was the Queen's birthday party, only a small part of the area was open for guests to play.

When Shade came downstairs, the fireworks display had just begun. Most of the people stopped and looked up at the sky, watching the slender light bombs fly up into the starry sky with a whistle-like sound, and then turned into flickering light spots and exploded under the night sky under the stars and March.

The weather is not bad tonight. The wind at the turn of summer and autumn has temporarily blown away the mist in the city, so you can see the vast starry sky when you stand in the courtyard and look up.

"I wonder if the sound of this explosion will scare Mia."

Because St. Teresa's Square is too close to Yodel Palace, Shade is very worried about this.

With his hands in his pockets, he stood in front of the building and looked up in the direction of Saint Teresa Square against the flickering light and shadow of fireworks. You can see the Yodel Palace from your home, so of course you can also see the kitchen window of your home from the Yodel Palace.

But due to the distance, Shade could not see the situation at home through the window.

"I don't know whether Mia was lying on the bed, running around on the third floor, or going to Room 2 on the second floor to sharpen her claws on the wall."

Xia De was making random guesses in his mind, but he had already planned to bring a telescope with him next time he came to Yodel Palace to observe the situation at home.

He wandered around the courtyard and soon saw a group of people from the Dawn Church near the long table in the front courtyard.

Bishop Owen, Priest August, and two other high-ranking priests whom Shade had met at Dawn Church, were talking to several southerners wearing brown formal clothes and speaking Kasonlik. Bishop Owen's Kassenric was quite good, Father Augustus only barely spoke it.

Because only people from the church would wear robes at the banquet, Shade saw them at a glance. Seeing Sha De coming over to say hello, Priest Augustus hurriedly stopped Sha De:

"Shad, I remember you said, do you understand the Kasenrik language?"

"Yes, do you need my help?"

"Oh, please help me translate. This foreigner speaks too fast."

As he said that, he pulled Shade and walked over. After the priest introduced Shade's identity in somewhat broken Kassenric, he asked Shade to officially start the translation work.

Although Shad can only hear but not speak Kasenrik, he can understand it completely, so he is not slow to learn this language. Even if he has not studied seriously and just looked through the dictionary in his spare time, in the process of helping with translation, if Priest Augustus has something unclear, Shade can use his equally bad Kassenric to give a hint.

So the two people who spoke poor language were finally able to talk to these foreigners smoothly.
