The Whispering Verses Chapter 2641: The second time in 2025
Chapter 2640 The second time in 2025
Shad discovered that Vanessa's cooking skills were actually very good, and he guessed that Carina's recent early rise was related to Vanessa staying overnight at his place.
Sitting at the dining table, while the family was enjoying the penultimate breakfast of this harvest month in the sound of rain, Vanessa looked at Shad who was in good spirits and sighed with a smile:
"I only knew that you were busy during the day, but now that I am here with you, it seems that you are also busy at night. No wonder Miss Feliana said that we failed to take good care of you."
She didn't seem to realize that since she came to Tobesk, she has appeared here every night except Saturday. This is the reason why Shade has been busy at night recently.
"I probably didn't take good care of it during the day, but I should have taken good care of it at night."
The Duchess also said teasingly. Except for Sirius, whose face was slightly red, the other girls covered their mouths and laughed.
"Shad, how was the situation yesterday? Has the Cumming family's matter been resolved?"
Luvia then asked again, and Shade took advantage of the breakfast time to talk about the identity of Father Francois yesterday morning, the nun, the paradox bug and the mystery lock in the afternoon, the concert, dreams and time travel in the evening A powerful enemy of time and space.
This is not the first time that everyone has heard that Shade does so many things in one day. So we just complained about Flora Winslet for a few times, and then discussed "Moonfire".
Shad didn't hide anything about this new spell, not even Sister Devlin's evaluation. When he opened his right hand on the dining table and let pure silver flames dance, all the ladies' eyes were drawn to him.
"Meow?"
Even little Mia, who was busy eating breakfast, raised her head. When her big amber eyes stared at the flames, her expression looked a little silly for some reason. The silly cat then pressed its right front paw like a white glove into the burning "moon fire", and then called out "Meow~".
Everyone can tell that this is a cat's way of expressing comfort.
"The moon **** gives you blessings, it's still during the Moon Dance Festival"
The two great witches exchanged vague glances. Sirius was worried about whether this power had a price, while Luvia frowned. Her purple eyes reflected the silver moonfire, and she seemed to see something in the dancing flames.
It was a very familiar feeling, just like waking up from a dream and recalling the dream of the previous moment, only to find that your mind was blank.
At this time, the cat's left front paw also reached towards the flame in Shade's hand, and the purple-eyed fortune teller suddenly realized. She clearly saw in the beating moonfire a cat that opened its mouth to swallow the moon, spitting out silver flames towards the whole world.
Although he was in a hurry to go out, Shade still didn't forget this week's gift box.
Last week he took out a set of jewelry from the box and gave it to Miss Daniste, who had just turned eighteen, but Vanessa and Sirius hadn't arrived yet. Now that Vanessa and Sirius were at home, they also listened to Shade's explanation of the effects of this "artifact".
They were naturally surprised that Shade was considered a "child", but soon Vanessa covered her mouth and started laughing for some reason.
What Shade took out from the box this week was also an ordinary item. It was a coat and uniform of Kasenrik's "Captain Officer", complete with buttons and epaulettes. And for this kind of thing, the girls naturally Not interested. As for this week's task, Shade needs to wear his own "professional uniform."
The duration is not limited, and Shade's professional uniform as a "detective" seems to be the clothes he usually wears.
“Speaking of which, can [God’s Gift Box] contain the twisted tree hole?”
Xia De suddenly had such an idea at this time.
Of course the cabinets and wooden doors are too large to fit into this box, but the "Opening the Forest Door: Our Animal Companions" obtained from the Cumming family can be completely stuffed into it.
Because of this idea, Shade took this relic that had not been taken out of the house for a long time to the Vista Grove. And because little Mia got into the box early and refused to come out, she was also taken to the forest by Shade.
When Shade came to Miss Elf's tree house, the three nuns and Miss Elf were still having breakfast. Sister Devlin and the Elf sat at one table, and the other two Sisters of the High Circle sat at another table.
Seeing little Mia sticking her head out of the box that Shade was holding, holding the edge of the box with her front paws and looking at the breakfast on the table, the blond pointed-eared elf subconsciously wanted to reach out to touch it, but immediately took it back. hand.
Shad noticed that she did not light the "cat-repelling incense" today, but because the cat was attracted by the delicious breakfast, it did not smell the scent of the elf.
"Okay, this one can contain that tree hole."
The elf didn't even listen to Shade's explanation of the specific characteristics of [God's Gift Box], and directly gave a positive answer, as if she also fully understood this relic:
"This is the safest containment method. This divine creation is one of the few devices that can completely limit the effect of a tree hole. Even if the next tree hole you find is still so small, it can be packed in."
"But I still need the regular means of restricting tree holes that you provide."
"Yes, yes, so you have to find me another arrow, and then I will tell you the answer."
Although Sister Devlin didn't mention Shade's need to borrow an eyepatch last night, it was obvious that she had not forgotten it. After Shade and the elf girl finished talking, she motioned for Shade to come over, then lowered her head slightly and took off her blindfold, and handed the metal with her warm body temperature to Shade.
During this period, she didn't say a word. After taking off her blindfold, she turned her head away from Shade.
The elf girl snickered on the sidelines, still feeling that the relationship between the two was very interesting. Shade rubbed the surface of mithril with his hand, thanked the nun and prepared to set off:
??????55.??????
"Well, you two, see you in three seconds."
"Meow~"
The cat jumped on Shade's shoulder, obviously wanting to follow him. [Black Sand Pier] does not seem particularly dangerous at the moment. Although happy emotions will continue to be lost and negative emotions will increase on the beach and in the water area, you can maintain yourself normal by the bonfire.
Shade then patted the cat on the head and agreed to its departure. After making sure that he had all the "cowardice" he had absorbed, he stuck Sister Devlin's blindfold on his upper arm, then took out the once-used key and pointed it at the door of the tree house:
"May the World Tree protect me in infinite time."
Click~
The fog door appeared behind the open wooden door. Shade turned the cat into a toy and strode in.
[Outlander, you have stepped into the "corridor of time". 】
[Message from the ancient **** "Father of the Infinite Tree":]
[The summer of 2025 in the Fifth Era, the Western Continent, Black Sand Wharf. 】
[Event: Farewell. 】
【Duration fifty minutes (2/3). 】
[You have obtained additional information. 】
[The figure of the father of the infinite tree is watching you. 】
[The ancient **** of time gives you a test:]
【Waiting with mortals for those who are about to leave. 】
[The Father of the Infinite Tree will give you a reward: Miracle Spirit Rune-Tree. 】
"Fifty minutes? Wasn't it thirty minutes last time?"
[This is not the first time that time has changed. 】
"She" said softly, Shade nodded, but stood in the fog and did not step forward immediately:
"When I went to see Sister Devlin in the Woods last night, was there something wrong with me?"
【You seem to be angry because of the dream. 】
"She" continued to speak softly, Shade stood in the fog and still did not move forward:
"Do you think I'm right to be angry?"
"She" smiled softly, just like the wind blowing on the water at night, the ripples were silent but beautiful. It seemed that someone was hugging him from the fog behind him. Shade did not turn his head, staring at the fog in front of him, and shook his head after a long time:
"You will always see me."
Stepping out of the fog, the calm and monotonous sound of the tide was first caught by the ears, and then the scene of the black beach with a light mist and the endless water in the distance appeared together.
Before coming here, Shade was obviously in a good mood because there were many ladies at home this morning, and the nun’s shy look just now was very interesting. However, the conversation in the fog made his mood a lot gloomier, and he was extremely depressed at this time. His mood made him couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Except for the sound of the tide in the distance, there is not even a sound of wind here. The mist has a cold feeling that makes the clothes cling to the body. Even ordinary people can bear this coldness, but psychologically it further aggravates the feelings of loss and world-weariness.
The silver eyepatch stuck on his upper arm shone slightly at the moment, and warm heat surged from the eyepatch. At the same time, the feeling of being hugged from behind reappeared, and some silver light seemed to be swaying behind him.
This was not the first time. He did not look around like last time, but walked directly towards the pier in the monotonous black mist in the distance.
The soles of his shoes made a rustling sound when they rubbed against the black sand. Although he obviously had no problem with his physical strength, walking on this black beach still made him breathe heavily.
Even people without psychological problems may become Dr. Schneider's patients if they come here. Even Shade can't resist the influence of this environment on people's emotions. In other words, attributes such as mental resistance are ineffective in this scene, and you can only use your own good memories to prevent the spread of negative emotions.
He didn't say a word, didn't complain a word, and just silently brought the silver light to the small black wooden pier at the end of the beach. The burning bonfire added a touch of brightness to the low and depressing environment, and there were actually not two figures beside the bonfire, but three.
In addition to Mr. Frank Nelson, a dirty black-haired man who is waiting for his wife, and Ms. Ania Bullock, the thirteenth-level "Death Witch Candidate" whose sister is a fire-wielding nun, there is another person beside the fire. A young girl who looks to be in her twenties.
You can tell by her appearance that the other person is also a witch.
The two familiar companions did not seem to have changed much, except that Ms. Bullock's spirit was obviously more depressed. They also noticed Shade, but they didn't seem to see the glow behind him. After nodding to each other, Shade sat down by the campfire, closed his eyes and shivered, took a long breath before opening his eyes, glanced behind him and found that the silver glow was dissipating, and then complained softly. One sentence:
"I hate this kind of moonless place."
As he spoke, he took out the little Mia toy again. When the fluffy cat appeared in his hands, even the other three people beside the fire felt that the surroundings seemed to be much warmer.
Mist still lingers on the black beach and water. Amidst the clattering sound, the tall black figure on the wooden boat docked on the left side of the pier remained motionless. The cat opened its mouth wide and yawned, then lay on Shade and looked around.
Xia De looked at his companions:
"As promised, I brought back the sin of cowardice."
There was not much time and he did not exchange too much greetings. He asked about the physical conditions of Mr. Nelson and Ms. Bullock, and then looked at the young witch who was only at the third level:
"Who is this?"
