He was interrogated many times when he left the city, and it was not easy when he entered the city. At the same time, because the church was investigating every street in the entire city, the shortest way home could not be taken. The carriage made a big circle before taking Xia De and the maid back to the city in the silent night. Saint Teresa Square.
The light of gas lamps illuminated the deserted square, and now the sky has darkened, only a group of pigeons parked in the square, probably wondering why no one was feeding them today.
Miss Tifa Thurwitt did not leave the carriage, and Shard went upstairs to fetch the fang.
The gas lamps in the house probably needed cleaning, and the lights on the stairs were a little dim, but to outsiders it was the firelight of the house.
After thumping upstairs, I saw that Miss Bayas had arrived:
"Oh, Shad! Good evening!"
She was sitting on the sofa holding a teacup, happily waving her hand to greet Xia De, and there was a bottle of red wine on the coffee table in front of her. Xia De was still awake when she left, so he was naturally very happy to see him safe and sound at this time.
"Good evening."
Xia De, who returned home, was also very happy, picked up the orange cat that ran over, and then told Miss Bayas and Luvia who was standing in front of the window looking at the carriage below, about the vampire teeth, and then took the relic , holding the cat, turned and went downstairs.
Back in the carriage, the maid just glanced at the fangs that Xia De put in the paper bag, and put it aside, she was very assured of Xia De's reputation.
Xia De, who was in a hurry to go home, wanted to say goodbye, but was stopped by the maid again.
She flicked the broken hair by her ears, and blinked at Xia De:
"Mr. Hamilton, I would like to replace Miss. Thank you again."
"You're welcome...what do you mean?"
Xia De looked at the black-haired maid, but didn't understand the meaning of this abrupt sentence.
The latter is somewhat embarrassing:
"I'm not qualified to say these words as a servant. The council has been coveting the secrets held by the [Blood Spirit School]. You probably can't imagine the value of that vampire's corpse and this fang. The lady is not in a good state today. , so I would like to express my thanks to you. Mr. Hamilton, you have done a good job."
"You don't have to thank me, Miss Servet. Miss Galina and I have said before that this is a fair deal."
Xia De said, smelling the fragrance of the maid again.
"Maybe it's not just a transaction, Mr. Hamilton. After this incident, Miss will probably treat you as a close person. You have shown this value."
"So... I'm honored?"
He didn't know how to answer, so he could only say this.
The maid who was close at hand showed a gentle smile:
"Actually, I also admire people like you. You seem to be out of tune with this world, but sitting in front of me is so real. If I didn't intend to follow Miss to become a witch, I would probably want to give you a kiss now. Mr. Hamilton , People like you are actually rare."
"Really? Then... you want to say I'm a good person?"
Xia De asked hesitantly, the maid hesitated for a moment, and made a posture of leaning forward, but finally retracted:
"Good people don't always live long, but I don't want you to be a purely good person."
"Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person."
"Goodbye, then, Mr. Hamilton. Oh, don't forget this."
She handed Shad the manuscript copy of the old book "The Encyclopedia of Ancient Fairy Tales from De La Rion", which Shad got from the auction:
"This book has been in my hands these days. I have to admit that you have a good eye."
"Goodbye, Miss Servet...Actually, I've always been curious, what kind of perfume do you use? It smells really good."
Xia De knew that this question was impolite, but he still asked it. The black-haired maid was a little surprised, but smiled immediately:
"Can you smell it? Only a few people can smell this perfume. This is made by Miss according to the ancient potion formula circulated in the parliament. Although it is perfume, the process of making it is potion."
"Do potions have names?"
Xia De was very curious, and the maid hesitated for a while before giving a reply:
"The smell of a witch."
Even if the Duchess was unprepared, it would be impossible to take out 1,200 pounds in cash at once. After all, Miss Galina didn't expect Shade to take out the vampire's corpse in advance.
Therefore, Miss Galina gave Xia De a money order, which can be cashed directly at the Bank of the Kingdom of Delarion.
When Xia De returned upstairs with the coquettish cat in his arms, the two ladies were also very satisfied with the large sum of money. The three of them planned to share the 1,200 pounds, but of course not evenly. Because it was Xia De who defeated the vampire, Xia De took the 500 pounds, and the two ladies shared 350 pounds each, and Xia De went to the bank to withdraw the money.
After discussing about the vampire's fangs, they started making dinner again. Because it is still under martial law, even if I have a large income, I cannot go out to eat.
Their relationship is very special, not friends, nor lovers for the time being. In the words of the purple-eyed fortune-teller, fate has linked the three together. Just like the adventurer team in ancient stories, and like friends who experienced magical adventures in fairy tales:
"Luvia, fortune tellers really like to talk about fate."
Xia De at the dinner table said that there were red wine glasses in front of the three of them, which were brought by Miss Bayas when she came back at night to celebrate the victory.
The sorceress with long brown hair raised her eyebrows at the address Shad used.
Last night, Miss Bayas bravely rushed to the third floor. Although her influence on the evil **** was minimal, her identity as the chosen one was exposed to the church.
During the day today, Miss Bayas accepted inquiries from the church, and answered many questions about the awakening of power according to the ideas that Miss Anat had already designed. But just like Miss Galina's attitude, the chosen ones who have awakened are not important, what matters are the chosen ones who have not awakened.
There are a total of thirteen chosen ones. No matter what the final door means, it is important to win over as many chosen ones as possible among one's own forces.
Therefore, apart from the Church of the Sun giving Miss Bayas full attention, the other churches are actually more concerned about the way the chosen ones awaken.
Next, Miss Bayas may go to the Holy See of the Church of the Sun for a short time, but she will still stay in the Diocese of Tobesk and continue her current life. After all, no matter how special the chosen one is, she is currently only a second-ring warlock... ..
"The third ring, during the day, the church opened a batch of books to me, and then I was promoted."
Miss Bayas said with a smile, in this way, Xia De in the second ring is still the one with the lowest rank.
Besides those books, according to Miss Bayas, the Holy See has other rewards and training plans in preparation. As long as she doesn't die, she will definitely be able to advance to the thirteen rings. A young girl has a high investment value.
After dinner, the three returned to the living room and continued talking on the sofa.
Therefore, the topic finally came to the white-robed **** last night. Miss Bayas asked the same question as Miss Anat:
"Shad, I only care about one thing and nothing else matters—are you human?"
"Definitely human."
Xia De nodded affirmatively, so the young girl was relieved. Compared with the curious female fortune teller, Miss Bayas actually didn't care much. It is enough to know that Xia De is a human being, and that Mysuo and Summoning God are all related to him.
Of course, Xia De still did not tell anyone that the gods and saints are actually him, and he is not just a container. The "time key" is used by him to explain everything, and he will not tell anyone about his true uniqueness until the day he becomes a god.
"But anyway, Shad, you saved everyone."
Miss Bayarth said her smile was really pretty in the light of the gas lamp in the drawing room.
"But no one will know what happened to me."
He has some regrets about this, otherwise, even if everyone in the city gave him a shilling, he would not be short of money for decades.
After discussing what happened last night, it finally came to the part of dividing up the harvest in the ruins. Those letters and books can be shared, but the relics cannot be cut.
Originally, six relics were harvested from the ruins, but the evil eye was taken away by the evil god, leaving only five. Now that the fangs have been sold to Miss Galina, there are only four pieces left.
"No, it's five, look at this."
Xia De took out the ring box, and the pebble rings in it were known to all the ladies, but they all showed disgusted expressions, and they did not become a man's hobby:
"You went to the charity banquet for this before breaking into the ruins? Since the lady gave it to you, then you can keep it for yourself."
Luvia guessed that Galina Cavendish was a witch, but Miss Bayas knew nothing about it. She seemed a little worried, not worried about the source of the ring, but worried about Xia De, so she kept telling:
"Xia De, it's not a last resort, but you must not use this casually... I don't want my companion to become a guy who is neither male nor female."
"Of course, I'll sell it after a while when the limelight passes."
The face of the ring is pebble-like, but the ring is still metal. Under the light of the gas lamp, the metal ring seemed to be shining. This strange halo attracted the cat that was lying on the coffee table.
"Meow~"
Standing up and looking at Xia De, under the watchful eyes of the three, Mia came to the ring flicking her tail. First, he lowered his head and sniffed it, and after confirming that he could not eat it, he curled his tail and put the ring on the tip of the tail.
"Um?"
Xia De was startled and wanted to hug it, but Mia easily avoided it~www.mtlnovel.com~喵~"
The orange cat wagged its tail and jumped onto the sofa to lie down. It curled up like a cat ball and let its tail dangle in front of it. Looking at the ring-covered tail and seeming interested, the cat has found a new toy.
[Metaplastic Ring] can automatically adapt to different finger sizes, and now it fits well on a cat's tail. But since cats can't cast spells, there's no need to worry about the ring working. It's just that you can't keep the ring with Mia for a long time. After all, the whispering element of [Relic] will have an impact on intelligent life.
But it's okay to take it out for the cat to play with occasionally.
Grabbing Mia, Shade took the ring off its tail and put it back in the ring box.
"Does the relic [Metamorphosis Ring] have any effect on animals?"
Miss Bayas, who saw this scene, asked softly to the fortune teller on the side, who shook his head:
"There is no information to record this. After all, this ring has never encountered an animal that can read spells."
