The Whispering Verses Chapter 1717: Farewell Ball at Yodel Palace
The weather in Tobesk City is very good tonight, and the spring starry sky hangs upside down above the Yodel Palace. Only Agelina, Shade and the little princess's maid were left in the garden. The princess glanced back, and the maid turned around consciously and waited at the entrance of the garden.
Suppressing the emotions in her heart and her gratitude to her sister, Agelina took off the small silver crown on her head and stuck it on her arm. Then she put her right hand behind her head and let the long red hair that was originally tied go free. Open it, shake your head slightly and let it hang behind you.
This look made her look obviously more mature than before:
"Knight."
She looked at Shade beside her, and Shade also looked at her.
"The moonlight is so beautiful."
She looked at the man who seemed to be favored by the moonlight, and he seemed even more unusual in the night:
"Sister said, you know the moon very well and are very good at using the power of the moon. Now, can you talk to me... about the moon?"
Her smart eyes seemed to be able to speak. Although there were shadows of Lesia and Miss Carina in her frown and smile, she was completely different from them. Standing on tiptoes, their lips touched lightly, both of them opened their eyes and saw what they looked like in the other's eyes.
Night, nine forty, Yoder Palace Banquet Hall.
"What are you thinking about?"
When the ball music played in the banquet hall, Carina Cavendish, who was wearing a purple dress and a silver crown, was hugged by Shade and entered the dance floor first.
The beautiful witch noticed Shade's pensive expression and couldn't help but joked:
"Don't tell me that you and the two girls have been studying mathematics or philosophy in the room for more than an hour just now."
"No, no, of course not."
"So, those two girls finally found a way to counter your extraordinary physique? Are you now the so-called most rational time for men?"
She said teasingly. Shade shook his head slightly and said something in her ear. The witch immediately blushed:
"Okay, okay, I know you have just started now. I will let you go after dancing in a while. Really, you know that I can't keep you tonight, but you still say such things."
As she spoke, she adjusted her pace to the slow rhythm, and then sniffed slightly:
"It doesn't smell like nothing has been done. This smell...Has Lesia changed her perfume recently? This is the light scent of the new Golden Lily III perfume launched this spring, and it matches me The scent of "Witch's Smell" is very close. Isn't she very confident? How can she imitate me?"
Shad didn't want to talk about perfume. He couldn't say that Lecia not only changed the perfume on purpose, but also got a concubine similar to hers, and then asked him to call her "my Duke", and then Put them again... Although he is in a good mood now and wants to go back as soon as possible after dancing, he does not want the witch who is now in a good mood to change her mood:
"I was just thinking about what the lunar eclipse means to me. Agelina and I were walking in the garden just now..."
"Were you with Agelina just now? Are you sure you didn't say the wrong name?"
The witch raised her eyebrows.
"Just a walk."
"No, no, I'm not surprised that you and Agelina are together. Who can't see Agelina's little thoughts? I'm surprised that Lesia is so generous. This is the first time I've seen a food protector. Tiger, take the initiative to give up the food... That's right, after all, tiger also has a sister... Please be careful and don't step on me, knight."
She reminded softly, but the smile on her face did not diminish.
"Sorry."
Xia De looked down at his feet and continued:
"Ajelina invited me to discuss the topic of the moon... Just think of it as just the moon. Her inspiration is really strong. She said that I have always looked like the moon. It’s just that the moon in the sky has been getting darker recently. More than one person has said that this lunar eclipse is very important to me. Sister Devlin and the guardian of the earth said so, but Miss Danister said, I. It’s better to avoid this lunar eclipse.”
"So, Agelina still has the talent of a diviner?"
The witch said with a smile, but she didn’t seem to care very much:
"Although I'm not as good as your teacher who is called the 'Red Moon Witch', I'm pretty sure that lunar eclipses are also part of the moon phases. I've heard that some people - for example, sit on the moon during meetings The one in the seat has a way to strengthen himself even in the face of a lunar eclipse. The lunar eclipse is just the disappearing moon and the shadow of the moon. What are you worried about?"
The two hugged each other, and she whispered into Shade's ear, as if she was flirting.
"Just flirting."
As if she could see what Shade was thinking, the witch smiled softly and enjoyed the dance:
"On the lunar eclipse night next Wednesday, I will most likely have arrived at Green Lake. If you are worried, how about staying at my place for the night?"
"If there's nothing important, I'd better stay at home. It's safer at home."
"Look, you rejected me again. Come on, don't talk about those depressing things, let's continue dancing. I know Agelina is still there waiting for your invitation, but she can wait a little longer. Lesia She is very generous to her, but I am different. The witch never understands humility."
She kissed Shade on the side of his face, surprising everyone else who was quietly observing the two of them. Xia De also unexpectedly raised his hand to cover the side of his face, looking at the shyness and joy in the eyes of the beautiful red-haired lady who was close to Chi Chi:
"Shad, I'm warning you in advance. After arriving in Green Lake City, I can arrange my meeting with Megan however I want. Don't stop me. I haven't encountered such an interesting thing in a long time. You must let me I'll arrange it."
Underneath that shyness and joy is uncontrollable excitement.
"Actually, just meet and talk directly, and don't make Meghan too embarrassed."
Xia De was a little worried.
"That's okay. Since she likes role-playing so much, let her play it to the end. Don't worry, I just want to embarrass her, and I won't embarrass you."
Miss Carina said, following the music, she was held in Shade's arms and spun around for a week, then she leaned in his arms and looked up at him:
"If Little Lesia hadn't booked you in advance tonight, I wouldn't have let you go at all."
Shad originally planned to dance two dances with Miss Carina and then invite Agelina. As a result, it wasn’t until the end of the third song and the band took a short break that the Witch was willing to let go of Shad:
"Tomorrow evening, remember to go to the train station to see us off."
She warned before walking towards Tifa who was waiting aside. And Agelina, who had been waiting a little anxiously, walked towards Shade with a smile regardless of her reserve. But when the dance music started playing again, she whispered to Shade:
"Just now, my great-aunt's head maid, the very nice Miss Servit, asked me to tell you that there is a very strange person here. He carries a soul with him."
"Soul? Here?"
Shad was slightly surprised. This was the Yodel Palace. He could not imagine what kind of soul could enter such a place where the church had arranged numerous exorcisms and blessing rituals.
"Is that person still there?"
"Here, although I can't see the soul, Miss Servet told me about that person's appearance. He didn't dance, he was watching others playing Rhodes over there. Please hold my waist, yes, spin, Yes, gently, gently...yes, turn your head to the left. See that person who looks so weak."
Now Shade saw it. It was no stranger. It was Durut Giles who had robbed the tomb on the central island of Green Lake. And the soul of the little girl discovered by Tifa was naturally Rusty Edward. Miss Z. However, the other party did not float aside blatantly. Instead, she hid in Giles' body and only occasionally showed her head to look around. She was probably seen by Tifa due to bad luck.
This kind of harmless soul that cannot affect reality is difficult for low-level and even most middle-level warlocks to see without performing thaumaturgy or drinking potions. It was really bad luck that she was noticed by Tifa who had been promoted to the eighth ring.
"It's okay, we're acquaintances. I'll go talk to him later."
Xia De is not sure why this guy came here. If he remembered correctly, Durut Giles had been plagued by poverty like other tomb robbers because of the curse. Although attending this banquet does not mean escaping poverty, this does not look like a place where he can come.
So after dancing three dances with Agelina, Shade went to the bathroom to disguise his face, then patted Durut Giles on the shoulder from behind, and came with him Corridor outside the banquet hall.
The ball started, and the banquet had reached its most lively moment. After a while, His Majesty the King finished speaking and handed over the letter of carte blanche to negotiate matters to Miss Carina. The banquet was finally over. Therefore, everyone was still gathered in the banquet hall at this time, and the corridor lit by gas lights was empty.
The banquet hall is extremely soundproofed, and the corridor and the room separated by a wall seem like two different worlds. Durut Gilles looked nervously at the stranger who brought him out, and asked tentatively:
"Are you a friend of...Professor?"
"Yes, you are really brave to bring her to a place like this."
Xia De leaned against the wall and shook his head.
"I can't help it, she won't wait for me at home."
Even though his face was powdered, the man who was still pale said helplessly:
"It was my relative, Viscount Chris Rendall, who gave me an invitation letter. He told me not to be bored at home all the time, but to go out for a walk occasionally. This distant uncle was really enthusiastic, And Rust was also clamoring to go out for a walk. I thought it might be good for her recovery, so I came... I guess she wasn't discovered by anyone, right?"
"Look, didn't I just discover it?"
Shade did not intend to waste more time with him, but warned:
"You'd better be careful. Although the harmless Church of the Soul won't care about it, if it's discovered that you are a ring warlock, things will be in trouble."
