I don't know when, there was a sound of Gudong Gudong under the frozen lake. Accompanied by this sound, whispering elements quickly spread along the ice surface to the entire lake.
The two witches didn't care about the "little joke" just now, and directly stood in front of Xia De. Dark clouds floated from nowhere, blocking the three rounds of the moon. While everything was pitch black, the ice surface shattered, but the lake below was black. And in the lake water that seemed to have turned into ink, a short figure that merged with the black shadow and couldn't see the specific shape appeared on the lake:
"very interesting."
Although the voice was hoarse, it could be heard that it was the voice of an eleven or twelve-year-old boy. However, even though it is a child, its whole body exudes full malice, and even that voice can make people feel instinctive discomfort:
"I didn't expect to see two great witches at once in the modern age, when the fifth era has gone away."
It hummed:
"I know what you want from me. You women are always like this. You take what you want, never caring what others think."
It seems to have a deep grudge with the witches:
"However, I am very interested in the malicious jokes of the witches. Now that you have found and pleased me, I will naturally give you a test: Now, there is a malicious thing lurking in this city. Yes, the third era The evil spirits and demons, don’t tell me you don’t even know this.”
None of the three spoke.
"Find it, beat it, any form of defeat is allowed, even playing cards. After completing the test, any one of you, tell a joke to a glass of water, and I will appear."
After speaking, he went straight into the lake, it seemed that he really didn't want to talk to the witches.
As a result, the dark clouds covering the moon dissipated in the sky, and the whispering elements and ink colors gradually shrank toward the center of the lake until they disappeared. Flakes of ice floated on the surface of the lake, which meant that the boy just now was not a hallucination.
"Demon."
Miss Galina looked at Xia De, who immediately nodded:
"No problem, leave this to me. There will be a result before the end of the week... I promise."
Perhaps it was because there were two witches following, the matter went extremely smoothly. The three then left Regent's Park and returned to the carriage. Miss Galina was going back to the manor outside the city, and Miss Sylvia was going back to take care of Princess Margaret, so the carriage sent Shade back to Saint Teresa first. square.
After the carriage stopped in front of the door of No. 6, Miss Galina, who was sitting next to Shad, kissed Shad's side face and said goodbye to him softly, and then glanced at Miss Sylvia. I haven't forgotten the little "joke" in Regent's Park just now.
So, the somewhat leisurely Tuesday passed like this, and early the next morning, Xia De carried Mia to the Prophet Association, and once again made an appointment with Luvia alone for the reason of divination "cat".
He's already a regular at the Prophet's Guild, and everyone here knows him. Even as long as Xia De came with a cat in his arms, the receptionists at the front desk would take out the divination registration form in advance and fill in other parts for him except for his signature.
It has been more than half a week since Xia De signed the [Founding·Knowledge] contract. During this period, the Prophet Association has "leaked" from unofficial channels through various means that Xia De will get the card news. As for the reason, of course it wasn't that Xia De used the gemstone given by the Duchess to exchange for a Rhodes card, but to thank Xia De for his contribution to the Prophet Association.
No one knows the specific "contribution" content, but there are many sayings because of this. In short, Xia De has received congratulations from the Prophet Association this morning.
Most of the guests who will appear at the Prophet Association so early are Rhodes veterans who can play cards in the association for a day, so they are naturally well-informed. Shade even met Mr. Luwaz Bersson whom he met while playing cards at the banquet of the Lake View Manor, that is, a middle-aged gentleman in his thirties who married the forty-five-year-old Baron Liana Pompeii.
The two chatted for a while, and Mr. Bersson made no secret of his admiration for Shad. He earnestly invited Xia De to go to the Prophet Association or the Rhodes Card Club to play two games with people after he got the [Founding·Knowledge]. None of the local players would refuse such an opportunity.
The weather is not bad today, the fog in the morning is unexpectedly thin, and the sunlight can shine on the floor of the divination room.
When Xia De and Luvia pushed the door and entered the room, Xia De, who was hugging the cat, yawned. Luvia closed the door with her crystal ball in her arms, and asked with a smile:
"Didn't you rest well last night?"
"Yes, I don't go to bed until three o'clock."
The purple-eyed girl counted the time;
"You don't see three points in the book, do you? Even if you have to take the skipping exam, with your progress, you shouldn't have to work so hard."
"No, the only time I touched a pen last night was after nine o'clock. It took me half an hour to finish the commissioned report I received on Monday."
"What did you do after that?"
Luvia continued to ask, Xia De opened his mouth, and the soft bed in the dark bedroom, the messy long golden hair and the gentle girl flashed before his eyes.
"Dorothy was with you last night?"
Luvia understood Xia De's expression at once, and asked jokingly.
"Yes, she has been with me for the last half week to a week, because of the devil."
"Demons? Those evil spirits from the third era?"
"That was after I separated from you at the Three Cats Hotel on Monday. It was originally a simple commission, but now there are some problems, so I came to you on purpose. Sit down and talk slowly, this is even related to 'keeping secrets' Man's test is concerned."
The whole thing is not long, but because it involves demons and witches, Xia De talked about it in detail.
During Xia De's narration, Luvia kept frowning, and nodded slightly after he finished speaking:
"Although I don't know why you are so confident in 'Fighting Demons', since you have made a promise, I won't ask any more questions."
She caught Shad's hand stroking Little Mia:
"If you need help from me or Iluna, you must tell us. The evil spirits of the third era, even if they are injured and weak, are definitely not joking."
"Don't worry, I am very confident in this matter alone."
This confidence comes from the doctor's past experience of easily defeating the Balrog in the Sikar Mountain in the autumn.
Luvia was still a little worried, but didn't say anything more:
"If you can really complete this test within this week, then you and Iluna have a total of 3 pyroxenes. The professors from the three colleges have entered the city, and I think the peaceful days are coming to an end. The first The story of the four chosen ones has entered the second half of the chapter, and things are going to get messy again here."
"It still depends on the attitude of that Sir Priscia."
Xia De nodded:
"Today is Wednesday, the fourth day of the Sleeping Moon. Within ten days, I will try my best to reveal Sir Priscia's words. Next weekend or next week, we will launch the final action against the Chosen Ceremony. In the past Experience tells me that at the end of the Chosen Ceremony, there will definitely be big events. I don’t want any ancient evils or level 0 relics to appear in Tobesk.”
"The balance has attracted evil gods, the darkness has caused the Coldwater Harbor tsunami and the darkness of Tobesk, and death has turned life and death upside down to breed the undead. I don't know what this knowledge and wisdom will lead to."
Luvia looked a little lazy, and after sighing slightly, she mentioned another thing:
"Be safe, both you and Dorothy, and . . . had a strange dream recently."
"What dream?"
"The dream was very chaotic, and I only remember some details. The sky was dim yellow and black, like an overturned oil painting palette. There was a big fire burning around, half of her body was petrified, Miss Pavo, yes, that was the one The vice-chairman of the [Truth Society].”
The purple eyes stared at the crystal ball, showing a worried look:
"She was lying in the center of the fire, leaning on a big rock, her left arm was gone, and half of her face was covered in blood. She gave me the angel-level relic [Smallwell Code]. into my hands, but completely transferred the ownership. She seemed to want to tell me more things, but she died before she finished speaking. The last sentence was to bless me, but the memory in the dream is blurred, and I don’t remember her What did you tell me..."
She looked up at Xia De:
"The picture is very real. It's a strange dream. I originally thought it was a precognitive dream of the chosen one of [Knowledge and Wisdom], but the scene of the dream seems to have happened in a very distant future. I don't know, this Does it indicate something?"
Xia De did not express his opinion, but had more guesses in his mind. Luvia's eyes looked at the air in front of her, and the picture in that dream still didn't leave her mind.
After bidding farewell to Luvia, Xia De sent the completed commission report to Sir Cameron. It's Wednesday and Sir Cameron is at his cigarette factory auditing - and everyone will be auditing at the end of the year. He was quite surprised that Xia De found the murderer in such a short period of time, and Xia De only mentioned the spice merchant in the report, and mentioned that the real owner of the box once lived in the Three Cats Hotel, but has left now, and there is no way find.
This can be regarded as the completion of the commission, although the degree of completion is not high, but after Dorothy helped polish it last night, the report with a length of more than ten pages looked very good, at least Sir Cameron praised it after reading it. Can't stop talking.
Especially when he heard that the female writer Dorothy Louisa has been following Shade to investigate, and there is a high probability that she will write a story about the box, Sir Cameron is even happier.
He even wanted to invite Xia De to have lunch together~www.mtlnovel.com~ and talk about the box in detail.
But Shade had already promised Dorothy to go home and have dinner with him, so he claimed to have other matters, evading Sir Cameron's kindness.
