The Whispering Verses Chapter 368: The second witch

Miss Carina did not hide the parliament’s movements from Shade:

"There are thirteen seats in total for the great witches in the parliament. I am the seventh seat, and the one who went to Coldwater Port this time is the third seat. You may have heard of her name, Sylvie Aurora, last time I saw her She seemed to be a twelve-ring warlock and a twelve-level witch when I went to the beach last summer. I don’t know if there has been any new progress this year."

The outsider thought for a long time before he realized what this name meant.

The twenty-nine-year-old Ms. Sivi Avora is from the ancient Avrola family and is a world-famous shipowner. She inherited the property from her father's family, and with her own efforts, she controlled some trade routes between the Old World and the New World. She owned almost one-third of the shipyards on the east and west coasts of the Old World.

This lady is the most legendary female image in the eyes of contemporary people living by the sea. Even the pirate kings galloping in the eye of the storm cannot compare with her legendary story.

Of course, there are many other rumors about this woman. For example, some of the pirates on the new route were actually funded by the Aurora family. For another example, the Aurora family can talk to creatures in the sea, so the probability of cargo ship accidents is much lower than that of its counterparts. Of course, people’s favorite tidbit is that this unmarried lady actually likes women because she never sees men around her

Thinking about it this way, it seems easy to imagine that the descendants of the Aurora family, which has been famous on the sea for centuries, are witches.

Miss Carina continued:

"It is very convenient for her to handle matters on the west coast of the Old World. The Aurora family itself is a family of ring wizards inherited from the previous era (note). It is said that in the fifth era, it was the same as the primitive ones in the ocean. The tribe and alien forces are involved. Although this ancient family line has declined, various strange ring magicians are born every few generations, and one of them is Sylvie Avora, who holds the secrets of the family. In terms of the power of the parliament, apart from the speaker of the parliament, the lady with thirteen rings, Xiwei is probably the strongest witch."

It seems that the Witch Council has also put a lot of thought into the second chosen one.

"Although she is in Coldwater Port and we are in Tobesk, I have to remind you, Shade, that not all witches are friendly to beings like you."

Miss Carina looked at Shade:

"The outside world thinks highly of her as an 'ordinary person', but what does she say? We are cursed and cannot touch men, so some people say that the Witch Council is an association of handkerchief lovers. Oh, have you heard of this? Say something?

Shad blinked, not knowing how to answer. Fortunately, Miss Carina was not waiting for his answer:

"This statement is of course correct, very correct. After all, before you appeared, we had no other choice."

She smiled ambiguously, not knowing what she was thinking of. Shade suddenly thought that if the black-haired maid did not go out but stood here, maybe there would be a strange blush on her face.

"But Xiwei agrees with this kind of single-choice question with only one option, and believes that this is the price of power, which is completely correct. If a person of unknown gender who can be touched by a witch appears, she will definitely not You'll be happy. I can't guess what she will do to you, but you'd better stay away from her."

Shad was not surprised by this. It would be strange if every witch was friendly to him.

"I am not a gender-ambiguous person, I am indeed a male."

This still needs to be corrected.

"So Miss Carina, what is the maximum distance between you and me?"

Xia De asked again, after all, he must go to Coldwater Port.

The red-haired witch thought for a while:

"Do you still remember the first time we met? At the Lucky Southern Cross Club, it was my unique ability to sense that you were using spells related to the old gods. And then I let you go to the study room on the top floor. At that time, Standing against a wall, I vaguely noticed something was wrong for the first time, but I confirmed this when I asked Tifa to give you the [Vampire Ring]."

Although Ms. Tifa Servet is not a true witch yet, she is burdened with part of the curse because she has the power of a witch.

"Is that the limit of perceived distance?"

Xia De asked again.

"It's almost the same, and it takes a lot of concentration to notice it, but we usually don't concentrate on observing a man. In addition, barriers such as walls will greatly weaken this perception, and the best way is actually You stand with other men. This way, even the great witch won't be able to notice your difference."

Then she gave an inappropriate example:

"After all, if a fresh fish is thrown into a pile of smelly fish, if people don't want to be stink, then people will definitely not be able to find out where the fresh fish is."

"So as long as I don't get too close to the witches alone, I won't be discovered immediately."

Xia De concluded. Seeing him looking very worried, Miss Carina smiled and shook her head:

"Tobesk is my territory, and I will protect you here. Shade, you are one of my most precious collections. Look, I did what the Witch Emperors couldn't do. ”

After receiving the money, Shade chatted a few more times with Miss Carina about his academic problems, and then ended the visit.

Considering the still angry cat at home, Shade asked the driver to take a detour on his way back so that he could go to the store and buy a small can of cod liver oil that the cat particularly liked. This is of course very expensive, but it's not Shade who pays for it. It's Miss Gothe who gives the money to provide the cats with a high quality of life. Shade just spends them reasonably.

When he got home, he didn't hear Mia running down from the second floor to greet him. When Shade arrived on the second floor, he saw Dorothy sitting on the sofa, looking through the detective files, and the orange cat, who had become even cuter after taking a bath, was lying on the dining table, staring at him at the door.

"Your cat is still angry."

The blonde said with a smile, thinking the scene was funny.

So Shade put down his hat, hung his coat at the door, and came to the restaurant with the bottle of cod liver oil.

Putting the bottle in front of the cat, the lying cat put its head on the table, stretched its neck, squinted its eyes and sniffed with its little nose, then looked up at Shade.

When it looks from bottom to top, its eyes always look particularly big.

"I'll give you cat food mixed with this at night."

Shad said pointing to the expensive food.

"Meow~"

So Mia, who was still angry just now, jumped up, supporting her two hind paws, and wanted to be hugged by Shade.

"It seems that Carina really gave you a lot of money, Lecia will probably be unhappy."

The female writer in the living room said jokingly.

"It's not like I took other people's money for nothing, it was obtained from a transaction. What's more, the money to buy this thing was given by Miss God."

Xia De emphasized, and then issued an invitation:

"If tonight's transaction goes well, I will go into the past at twelve o'clock in the morning to explore Miss Feliana's past. Do you want to see this scene from my place? Although it is only three seconds, but after that I can Bring good stories."

"I don't want to hear about your adventures that make ordinary people crazy."

Dorothy shook her head and refused:

"However, if you get the [Eternal Youth Leaf] this time, remember to let me keep one for you."

She blinked at Shade, who was busy soothing the excited cat:

"I don't have a magic potion that will make me young again after aging, but at least when I was young, I could take care of myself a little."

Although this sentence sounded okay, Shade always felt that she was mocking Miss Carina for being older than them.
