Iluna and Luvia stayed in the [Dark Dungeon] for half an hour before coming out. At that time, Xia De was sorting out his books in the study on the second floor, and planned to use the second-year potions and alchemy Practice your craft.
Neither of the two girls wanted to tell Xia De what they had talked to their "self" in the dark, but they both thought they had gained a lot.
Xia De originally had the idea of letting Luvia stay overnight, but before he tried to express his thoughts secretly, Iluna said that she would leave with Luvia, and wanted to ask some inconvenient questions for Xia De to listen to. The problem.
"Then we'll go first."
The purple-eyed girl smiled and waved at Xia De. Of course, she could see Xia De's thoughts, but the two still wanted to avoid Iluna:
"I'm going to take a good rest too, Xia De, good night."
In front of Iluna, he gently kissed Xia De sideways.
"When did your relationship get so good?"
Iluna asked suspiciously, Xia De shook his head:
"Speaking of which, I forgot to ask just now. Iluna, is your eye okay now?"
Shade refers to Iluna's eye formed by the condensed divinity. If it is not for the divinity, it has been sacrificed to the ancient god's eye, and it cannot be restored anyway. In the final battle of [Dark Realm], Iluna's eyes seemed to be on fire. Although this allowed her to see in the dark, Shad was worried that there would be other problems with her eyes.
"This eye is very good, better than a normal eye."
Iluna replied, tilted her head and glanced at Luvia, then walked up to Xia De, and kissed Xia De lightly on the side of the face:
"Good night, then, Shad."
She blushed and said softly, then smiled and took Luvia's arm, and left with her.
Xia De took Mia, sent the two girls downstairs, and watched them walk towards the intersection of Saint Teresa Square together.
Finally, he looked up at the moon in the sky:
"You said, can I finally rest for a while?"
[Probably yes. 】
"Meow~"
Mia squirmed in Shad's arms, squinting her eyes and making a soft cry.
"I'm asking the moon."
The moonlight sprinkled on Xia De's face, and the scenery of March hanging high in the night sky was absolutely unheard of in his hometown.
【Yeah? 】
She was chuckling, and that laugh was reassuring.
(Mia is running...)
After finishing the incident with Darkness, Shad thought that his life had finally entered a time of peace for the time being.
The next day was Monday, the second day of the Harvest Moon. Xia De didn't think about opening this week's gifts until he woke up early in the morning.
While eating breakfast, I moved the [God's Gift Box] to the dining table on the second floor, but as soon as I opened the box before reaching out, Mia rushed in quickly.
Xia De's hands "wrestled" with the cat in the box for at least ten seconds before he managed to fish it out.
But when I grabbed the cat by the back of its neck and pulled it out, I found a string of things hooked on its tail. After pulling the whole cat out, I saw that it was a string of dried sausages strung together.
Because he doesn't like to cook by himself, Xia De did store similar food at home, but Xia De can guarantee that he absolutely did not stuff air-dried sausages into gift boxes. It is really blasphemy for God's creation to be used for pure food.
"So, that's the gift for this week?"
Holding the string of small sausages, Xia De thought in his heart, lightly swiped his fingers, and the silver moonlight shone, and cut two small slices from the last sausage.
One piece was placed in front of Mia on the table, and one piece was eaten by herself. It tasted very good:
"However, is this a gift from Mia, or a gift from me?"
As soon as the idea falls, the information about the things that need to be done this week will appear immediately. Shad needs at least two walks with the family pets, each time no less than half an hour.
"Is this a request for me, or for Mia?"
Even if there is no such request, Xia De will go out to walk the cat. But for Mia, going out of the house is a very bad thing for it.
While eating breakfast, I read the newspaper for a while, which mentioned the news that Sachs Cavendish had been convicted of treason. Although this can be regarded as big news, it only reached the third page of the Tobesk Morning News, and it was only an area in the second half of the third page. It seems that the king also wants this matter to end like this.
"Execution by shooting has been carried out..."
The daily life of outsiders is actually quite boring. After breakfast, I wanted to lure Mia to take a bath in the bathroom, but this smart cat seemed to see through his purpose because Shade went to the bathroom in advance to prepare hot water.
When Xia De put the hot water on and went to catch the cat wearing gloves, Mia had already rushed into the bedroom and hid at the top of the closet, refusing to come down no matter what.
So Xia De could only suspend his plan, thinking that he must give Mia a surprise attack next time.
But the hot water should not be wasted, so I washed the clothes at home all morning. Looking at the recent weather, summer is over, and he can start preparing for autumn clothes.
"Maybe I should really find some servants who can come to the house to cook and clean. I can't afford a full-time servant, at least I can find one that charges by the hour."
This was what Xia De was thinking when he was sitting on the small bench, washing clothes in the sink under the sunshine of the balcony. Although tired, he still enjoys this kind of leisure time:
"A person shouldn't underestimate his own achievements, but he shouldn't be too arrogant. It's just that I, a foreigner, can face gods and kill demons, but I have to wash my own clothes. This is definitely not right."
Thinking in my heart, I glanced at the Mia cat squatting next to me. After confirming that Shade had used up the hot water in the bathroom, it jumped off the closet.
"This cat is lazy, if only he could help with the laundry."
The voice next to his ear was chuckling, and Xia De couldn't help but shook his head with a smile, he was amused by his own thoughts.
"Meow~"
The cat's fur seems to be glowing in the early autumn sun. It licked its paws, then stared with big eyes, curiously looking at the colorful bubbles in the water basin under the sunlight.
Shad really likes this life.
After washing the clothes, I went out to the MI6 stronghold, which is the "Urban Garbage Management Center" in the West District of Tobesk at around eleven o'clock.
The small gray building located between the snuff bottle shop and the shoemaker's shop specializing in rain boots is hidden in the bustling steam city. If it is not known in advance that this is a stronghold, it is difficult for ordinary people to look at this small building with interest even passing by. .
Xia De originally came to Mr. Gilles Johnson from the Equipment Management Office to receive this month's salary, but after knocking on the door, he found that there were other people in the Equipment Management Office.
It wasn't any other agent, but Shad's boss, Director Dak Anros.
"Look who this is, Knight Hamilton."
This very ordinary-looking gentleman shook hands with Xia De very enthusiastically. When he saw Xia De holding the envelope containing the receipt, he knew what he was here for.
Asking Mr. Johnson to help Shad deal with salary, reimbursement and bullet quota, Director An Luosi signaled Shad to come with him.
The two walked between the shelves inside the equipment management, and Mr. An Luosi said with a smile:
"I was thinking of going to your place for a while, but I didn't expect such a coincidence to meet you here."
With his appearance, he was only short of writing "I have a task for you" written on his face.
"Excuse me, what's the matter?"
Xia De asked cautiously.
Although Miss Galina said that Xia De didn't need to do anything when she joined the job. But if there is a real need, Xia De will not refuse the mission arranged by MI6. Presumably Director An Luosi would not give him particularly difficult things to do.
"Mr. Hamilton, I remember being a master of Rhodes cards, so this Friday, which is the sixth day of the Moon of Flowers, is the big city player, have you participated?"
Mr. An Luosi asked, Xia De nodded:
"certainly."
"It would be great."
Director An Luosi simply knew what he was asking. The holders of the founding series of cards will participate in this competition. It is not news to the local Rhodes players~www.mtlnovel.com~ Even if he is not the director of MI6 , This kind of thing will already be known to anyone who asks casually.
"That's right, Shade Hamilton, the Sixth Office has a small mission that needs to be completed by agents who can participate in this competition... Do you know the Principality of Seth?"
Xia De thought for a while, and asked hesitantly through memories and "her" hints in his ears:
"Located in the southeast of Delarion, that small country between Delarion and Carson Rico? If you remember correctly, this country was split from Delarion three hundred years ago. Seth at that time Grand Duke Cavendish was allowed to establish a duchy. At first, the duchy and the kingdom had a unified taxation and military relationship. In recent hundreds of years, the independence has become stronger and stronger, but it is still nominally under the jurisdiction of Delarion.”
"Yes, the six suspects that the Principality of Seth has a connection with Kasenrik that we don't know about. Because of the special location of the Principality, we cannot allow it to completely fall to Kasenrik, or even allow them to have a closer relationship. , which poses a huge threat to the security of the border. Cavaliers, please see this photo."
Mr. Anros handed Shad a black and white photo, on which
He was a handsome man in his thirties.
"Virgil Cameron, on the surface, has no official status, but secretly is the lover of the contemporary Grand Duke Seth. Relying on his appearance and flattery, he has a high status in the court of the Principality."
"The contemporary Grand Duke is a woman?"
Xia De asked curiously.
"No, Grand Duke Alexis Cavendish is male."
Mr. An Luosi glanced at Xia De and put the photo away.
