The Whispering Verses Chapter 2223: Soothsayers and Soothsayers
"Meow~"
After Iluna finished telling the story of the ancient god, the cat lying on Shade's lap purred probably because it felt so comfortable being touched by Shade.
Luvia nodded, but it was obviously not for this topic that she came here this morning:
"Xia De, how is the situation over at Yuewan?"
"It's still the same, but major organizations are surfacing, and the disaster of light is gradually emerging. The haze of the dragon is still shrouding the city, but the seven major families all have their own agendas. It's hard for me to evaluate those nobles. behavior.”
He briefly described the fight last night. Luvia nodded and said to Shade and Iluna:
"Although you, Shade, cannot be the Chosen One, and Iluna does not look like a candidate for the Chosen One of Light, this does not mean that you are not qualified to pull out the 'Sword of Light'. I I have a request for you. During Operation Yuewan, you must do as many "just things" as possible. The so-called justice depends on the idea, the original intention, or what is actually done. I will not discuss this with you, but you. Your behavior must be righteous.”
He paused and added:
"Of course, this is not a 100% requirement, just to remind you to pay attention to this. If one of the two of you is the first to pull out the sword of light, even if the ceremony of the chosen one is not held, we can still take advantage of it. Take advantage."
"Luvia, do you know the ritual to obtain the 'Sword of Light'?"
Eluna asked in surprise, Shade also looked at her, the purple-eyed fortune teller smiled and shook her head:
"No, but I found some interesting information within the association. It's not easy. After all, I don't want others to know what I checked. Although the association does not have complete ceremony records, at least it does exist in the information. I won’t go into details about the information that Shade has found out. The new news is that the sword of light will not cause harm to the righteous."
"Wait, you mean, if I am a righteous person, even if I stand motionless, the weapon forged by the ancient god's power will not hurt me if it is struck on me?"
Shad asked, Luvia shook her head:
"If it really stabs you, as long as the sword itself exists physically, it will definitely cause damage. But its special power will not have an effect on a just person. If the opponent of the sword is a just person, then It's just an ordinary long sword."
"But how should justice be defined?"
The eighteen-year-old girl asked, and then saw Shade and Luvia looking at her, and the latter said happily:
"Very good, Iluna, you who have the power of balance should think about this question more. But you should not seek answers from us, but we should seek answers from you. After all, you are the one who holds the power of balance. balance man ”
Eluna was thoughtful, and Shade continued the topic:
"Even if we can't pull out the Sword of Light, as long as we are judged as righteous people, the greatest reliance of the Chosen People of Light will be useless to us. This is interesting, but I'm worried, 'The Sword of Light' 'The judgment of whether it is righteous is the same as the judgment of whether the 'chain of sin' is sin."
He explained it carefully:
"Theoretically speaking, the Chain of Sins only takes effect on objects with sins. But in my actual use, except for some very special circumstances, basically all intelligent life has sins, yes, all. So light Does the sword have a similar effect? Except for very special circumstances, in fact, all intelligent life in this world has an 'unjust' side."
"This is not something we have to consider now, let's do the things in front of us first."
Luvia said, and then reminded Iluna:
"This time, in addition to the [Dragon Eater Order] and the [Light Worshipers Training Association], your opponents may be able to fight against the giant dragon, but when you encounter the kind of light that melts all things that Shade mentioned, you What to do? Even Shade said that he needs to have reaction time to resist that strange light. What about you, Iluna? Be careful not to be too impulsive this time when you arrive at Moon Bay."
The eighteen-year-old girl nodded heavily, and then asked:
"Louvia, are you going to Moon Bay?"
"If the church asks the association for help this time like Green Lake did, and the association dispatches fortune tellers from the Old World to aid Moon Bay, I will sign up. My performance last time was pretty good, and I will definitely be selected as long as I sign up this time. If The association does not organize similar activities. I have not taken my annual leave this year, so I can take leave and leave the local area for a while.”
This time Shade did not say that he would not let Luvia go to Moon Bay for safety reasons. Now that Luvia has reached the seventh level, he does not have to worry about her safety as before. The stories of the chosen ones are getting more and more dangerous time after time, so it is really necessary for everyone around them to adapt to the danger before the danger takes the initiative to affect them.
This is why Shade did not object too much. Carina and Lesia asked Agelina to follow Tifa to the South Kingdom.
In addition to discussing the Sword of Light with Iluna and Shad, Luvia came here this morning to give Shad a divination tool:
"Aren't you trying to find the seven dragon scales corresponding to the seven major families? Since the dragon scales that have been found have the power of the ancient gods, I tried to make this. I studied the ancient gods and the chosen ones It’s not long since I learned about Laplace Howard’s information. He is indeed a genius. ”
What Luvia handed Shade was a brass pocket watch, but after opening it, she discovered that it was actually a compass. The compass is very simple to use. The direction pointed by the pointer is the direction where the power of the "Ancient God - Dragon of Glory" is suspected to exist.
Although Luvia is not sure how accurate this prop is, it can at least provide some help.
So an hour later, when Shade saw the witch at Belindel Manor in Moon Bay, he mentioned that in addition to the metal divination card she gave her that was fused with golden dragon scales, he had a new one. "Dragon Scale Detector".
In the beginning, the proud witch of "destiny" certainly didn't care:
"The divination card I gave you is enough. Others don't understand Yuewan, let alone the power of the ancient gods."
"That was made for me by my fortune teller friend out of town. Yes, it's the sorceress I mentioned."
As a result, the great witch of fate was aroused to be competitive. While the maid Matilda looked at Shade with a strange expression, the countess raised her slender neck:
"That's really interesting. Can you let me see what the fortune teller made? I'm very curious about it."
Shade then handed over the pocket watch-style compass made by Luvia. The countess opened the watch cover with a click, put the compass in her hand, turned it around twice, and then released it. Two simple spells are used to detect alchemical items.
She frowned deeply, feeling that the situation was a little different from what she thought. So she asked Shade to take out the "Queen" divination card. She compared the two "Dragon Scale Detectors" with each other. Her lips pursed and her brows seemed to frown deeper:
"Go visit your elf friend first. This compass is very interesting. I want to check it carefully and return it to you later."
"Of course, no problem. Where is Amelia now? In the bedroom?"
"She is in the basement with the little unicorn. She borrowed my alchemy laboratory. Speaking of which, will the female fortune teller who helped you make the compass come to Moon Bay to help you?"
She asked suddenly again, and Shade nodded:
"Yes, but I'm not sure when. We will introduce you to you then."
So Shade went to visit Emilia first. He was very happy that the elf girl didn't really just intend to spend a week reading novels.
And when Shade walked away, Miss Matilda, who knew the countess' character very well, asked softly:
"Miss, this compass"
"Very impressive."
She is not stingy with her praise:
"The person who made the compass knows the power of the ancient gods very well, even better than me. I can't take apart this compass, but I can tell just by observing that maybe the effect of this compass is not worse than my divination cards. But the divination card is fused with a dragon scale, and the detection effect is achieved by using the resonance ability of the seven dragon scales."
The witch took a deep breath, and the apprentice asked her teacher:
"Miss, can you guess who made it? There should be few people in the material world who are better than you in the field of divination. I mean, I mean, they are almost the same as you."
"I can't tell who it is, but this craft clearly has traces of the Prophet Association."
She is still looking at the compass:
"However, except for special beings like me, most of the fortune tellers in the material world of this era have more or less connections with the Fortune Teller Association. After all, the question of the 'Registered Fortune Teller' professional examination is about them. out."
She thought about it carefully:
"It seems that I have really underestimated others before. That's right. How could the helpers around the man I like be ordinary."
The blond maid did not point out that she was actually boasting.
"It seems that I need to be well prepared. When the female fortune teller comes to Yuewan, I must calm her down as soon as possible. There is basically no possibility that she is higher than me, and her appearance is natural. You won’t be as beautiful as me.”
This is not narcissism, witches do have the ability to show off their appearance.
"Miss, would you like to try divination?"
Miss Matilda asked again, but the witch hesitated. Since Shade came to Moon Bay, she has slightly changed her habit of divination for everything. After all, most of the time the divination results are no longer reliable:
"The diviner himself has powerful anti-divination characteristics. But it's okay to give it a try. I want to see the other party's methods in advance."
So the maid took the fortune-telling cards, and at the moment when the witch drew the cards, far away in the Silver Cross Avenue Seer Association in Tobesk City, Luvi was helping a visiting lady divine her love fortune. Ya was suddenly stunned.
