The Whispering Verses Chapter 1147: The Return of Iluna
"What a surprising gift."
Xia De took out the tie as he spoke, and the red-haired witch said with a faint smile:
"One more thing - after the end of the year, Tifa and I are going back to Saladir County."
Xia De suddenly raised his head and looked at her in surprise. Miss Carina explained:
"After all, I have been staying in Tobesk for the past six months. Although there are female officials in Saladir County who I trust very much to preside over affairs, and documents have been passed on, I have not been able to show up in person. In fact, if it weren't for Panta Regarding Nar’s matter, I plan to go back to celebrate the New Year’s Day..."
"How long will it take to come back?"
Xia De asked, trying not to show too much regret.
"About a month or two."
She mentioned a span of time that was a bit long, but Shade could understand it. Although Saladir County is still nominally part of the kingdom and is not an independent principality, in fact, due to Miss Carina's methods and the history of Saladir County, the taxation and military management there have basically been done. Arrived semi-independent.
Therefore, when calling Miss Carina, the more common title is "Grand Duchess". If the steam age hadn't strengthened economic exchanges within the entire kingdom, Saladir County might have become an independent principality.
The current king has no objection to this. This is of course not only because Miss Carina is his aunt, but also because this is something that the previous kings have agreed to long ago.
Lesia's unfriendly attitude toward Miss Carina is because Miss Carina tried to "split the kingdom."
"Come back soon...I will miss you."
Xia De said, put down the tie, held down the dishonest cat, pursed his lips and asked again:
"When will we set off?"
"Tomorrow night I will attend the royal banquet at Yodel Palace. On Wednesday, the first day of this year, I will accompany Queen Diana to attend the event. I will pack my luggage on Thursday and Friday. On Saturday, we will take a steam train and travel It’s not long.”
Miss Carina looked at Shade:
"While I was away from Tobesk, you were the only legal owner of the manor in the local area. You have also met the housekeeper. If you have anything to do, just come to her. In addition, if you have something urgent to come to me, besides going to Middleburg, In addition to Granny Cassandra, I will leave you with an alchemical item that you can contact at any time..."
It was a pair of notebooks with red covers. If letters were written on either one, the other would also show traces. Of course, this is only an alchemy item and cannot be compared to a relic. Therefore, when using it, not only do both parties need to be in a relatively stable environment, but also they can only transmit simple information, not materials.
"When we come back, it will probably be spring."
Miss Carina sighed softly, and then asked Xiang Shade:
"Do you know what my dream is?"
"Become the Witch Emperor of the Sixth Age."
Xia De said without thinking, the red-haired witch was a little surprised:
"I never mentioned this to you."
"But I can feel it. My own territory and the power of demigods. I think you even want to use Saladir County as the public residence of the Witch Council, so that the Council will truly become the Sixth Age." The extraordinary group allows the followers of the witches to unite together."
Shad said, Carina Cavendish looked at him blankly, and after a long time he said:
"Interesting ambition, isn't it?"
"It is not only interesting, but also worthy of awe and admiration. I roughly understand why Lesia hates you... But the sixth age material world, the new witch kingdom... this is difficult , if you wish to do so, I will help you from somewhere other than Split Delrayon."
"Look, Ray Jade's Hamilton really does have the power of the 'Charming Witch'."
She deliberately avoided Shade's eyes, turned her head slightly and said to Tifa beside her. Then he stood up and sat next to Sha De:
"Is there anything else to do today?"
"Yin Luna will probably come to see me when she comes back tonight."
"Then come with me for a walk around the city this afternoon, and then have dinner together."
Looking at Miss Carina up close, her beautiful face is really breathtaking.
"Just think of it as a farewell to me and Tifa... Speaking of which, do you know who did bad things in my bed during my 'bed rest'? I heard from those young maids , I heard some interesting rumors."
yyxs.la
She asked suddenly, and Tifa immediately turned around and walked to the kitchen to see why the other two maids hadn't brought the hot tea. Shade blushed, and Miss Carina showed a satisfied smile, tilted her body towards Shade, and rested her head on Shade's shoulder.
It was already seven o'clock on Monday night when the carriage brought Shade back. This afternoon he accompanied Miss Carina, and he could fully appreciate the enthusiasm of the upcoming festival in the city.
After Shade got off the carriage, the duchess kissed Shade goodbye through the car window and made an appointment to see her off on Saturday.
Xia De took out the key and opened the door, only to find that the lights were on inside the home. After walking up the stairs, I saw Luvia standing by the window sill holding little Mia:
"I just saw you kissing."
She said with a smile, and then motioned for Shade to go to the study:
"Half an hour ago, something was glowing in your study drawer, but I didn't move it."
"In the drawer? Oh, it's the page of the poem manuscript!"
He hurried to the study and found the message on the page. Miss Denister returned directly to St. Byrons after the Battle of the Pantanal. Originally, I wanted to talk to Xia De about the "Huang Yue Relic" tonight, but seeing that he didn't seem to be at home, I asked him to contact him again after the New Year's Day.
Miss Daniste will probably be very busy recently. Although the Pantanal War failed to become the "beginning of the end" as predicted, the aftermath of what Shade did is still spreading. Not to mention, as the most important librarian of St. Barons Comprehensive College besides the principal, the college’s year-end celebrations cannot be without the presence and participation of this lady.
So Shade respectfully wrote a reply, and revealed in the reply that he had found the relic [Source of Chaos] and could try to open the Black Book again at any time.
He is not afraid of the [Source of Chaos] being recognized. The round, bright yellow orb was only publicly seen in the Pantanal area, but it was made bigger than the moon by Miss Olanode. Elemental fluctuations are very different from true relics.
While Shade was writing the letter, Luvia was watching from the side. After he finished writing, he asked:
"Do you think you can find the [Silver Moon Library]? That library is said to have records of all the past. If you can enter it at will, it will definitely be of great help to our cause."
"I may actually be able to find it this time, but I bet that there will definitely be a price to pay for searching for information in the library."
It wasn't until nine o'clock that night that the tired Yin Luna knocked on the door of No. 6 St. Teresa Square. Although she had gone through a long journey and reported her itinerary to the Church of the Sun, the seventeen-year-old girl was still very happy to see Shade and Luvia again this night.
Luvia patted the snowflakes on her shoulders, while Shade handed her hot tea. After holding the teacup and taking a few sips, Yin Luna's face, which was red from the cold, regained some normal color:
"I didn't find the carriage at first. I walked two blocks from the church before I saw the carriage. The New Year's Day is here, and the coachmen have to take a rest."
Yin Luna explained in a low voice, Luvia said softly:
"Thank you for your hard work, Yin Luna."
Yin Luna's face immediately turned red, and she muttered in a low voice, "Xia De works harder than me" and "How can you really say such things?", and then glanced at Xia De secretly.
She thought again of the brief time she and Shade spent alone by the light of the campfire at the end of the Battle of Pantanal, after the five demigod witches left. Now that I think about it, that kiss was really bold.
I came to Shade's home immediately after a long journey, naturally to deal with the follow-up situation of the fourth selected candidate. [Aikenora - Arrow of the Chosen] has been taken out by Shade. Yin Luna checked it while listening to Shade's introduction to the specific situation.
What is sealed in this arrow is the qualification of the chosen one. Those who are shot by the Shadra bow can become the chosen ones of "knowledge and wisdom". Of course, not everyone can do it, at least they must have a certain degree of wisdom or the determination to pursue knowledge.
From this aspect, most of the ring warlocks Shade knows meet the requirements. In addition to giving the chosen person an identity, this arrow also gives those who are stabbed by Shade's arrow additional power.
Luvia has already tried to be stabbed by an arrow, so she obtained thaumaturgy, and Yin Luna probably has received the enlightenment of the chosen one on the island in the middle of the Pantanal Lake, so she can no longer learn from it. Only arrows gain other powers.
"The question now is whether the qualification of elect should be conferred on someone, or should it be conferred now?"
The arrow returned to Luvia's hand again, and she and Yin Luna looked at Shade together.
Xia De has made up his mind:
“The first thing that needs to be made clear is that the qualifications of the chosen ones must not remain in this arrow forever, otherwise the condition of ‘all chosen people appear’ will not be met.”
He paused:
"If what Luvia said is correct, the final door will definitely appear, then fate will not allow us to remain the chosen ones for a long time."
The purple-eyed fortune teller nodded, and Shade revealed his plan:
"But I don't intend to give the qualification to others immediately."
He took the arrow from Luvia:
"Being a chosen one means being forced into the whirlpool of fate, and we can't guarantee that even our friends will always stand by our side... This is just doing the worst The intention is not to distrust others. Therefore, giving qualifications to someone immediately only adds a new combat capability to us, and has no other benefits."
He looked at the two girls:
"My idea is to keep this arrow until the twelfth chosen person appears, and then I will shoot it out...I am currently considering asking Priest Augustus at that time. Priest Such an old man has his own unique wisdom, and he has a peaceful personality and is very willing to help me. ”
What Shade didn't say was that the priest's body was fused with the body of the "King of Angels" the immortal angel. No matter what happens after the last door is opened, the old priest will be involved. It can increase the probability that things will develop for the better.
Of course, he still strictly abides by the agreement with Priest Augustus at this time, so he will not share the priest's secrets with others.
