"Yes, of course I understand."
The young witch nodded slightly, knowing that there was a threatening meaning in Miss Galina's words:
"I have no ill will towards Mr. Hamilton, but I want to make sure that his condition..."
"I don't know the reason yet, but what is certain is that it cannot be replicated."
"That's good."
Miss Sylvia nodded, her brows still not stretched, and she looked at Xia De who was wiping her lips:
"But how could this be?"
Only by becoming a great witch can one know what the witch system means. And as a price, the curses carried by the witches should definitely not have loopholes like Shade:
"Miss Galina, are you sure that this gentleman is a man?"
"Yes, he has even slept with my grandniece. I have checked his hair and blood, and I am sure that he is an ordinary human, and he has no special xenorace blood."
Hearing what Miss Galina said, Miss Sylvia stopped asking, but it was obvious that she was more concerned about the reason for this phenomenon than whether the existence of Shad would affect the Witch Council.
Miss Galina didn't speak anymore, Tifa stood quietly behind her, Shade hugged Mia, and suddenly thought of how he brought this cat too, Mia squinted and was hugged by Shade, And Miss Sylvia hesitated for a moment, and then asked:
"Mr. Hamilton, I remember you said during the day that you can use the power of time and space."
"Yes, my core spirit rune is [Time and Space]."
The witch blinked:
"I have a friend at St. Byrence Comprehensive College. I heard rumors this summer. The History College has enrolled a correspondence student with a time-space spirit rune. So it's you?"
"yes, I......"
"Now is not the time to discuss this."
Miss Galina interrupted, she looked at Miss Sylvia:
"What do you think about the existence of Xia De?"
The latter immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, and looked at Xia De again hesitantly:
"I will not reveal his existence to other people in the council, but I hope that Mr. Hamilton can cooperate with me to conduct some research on space. Today in Huntington, I perceive the space he uses through a wall Thaumaturgy is different from what I know."
After speaking, he added:
"Duke, you should also hope that Mr. Hamilton can go further on the road of ring warlocks, right?"
"So, that's all you want?"
Miss Galina actually seemed a little disappointed.
"Duke, what do you want from me?"
Miss Galina thought again:
"That's right, it's normal when I vouch for him, show intimacy clearly, and he's valuable to you."
"Besides, I am the last member of the parliament. It is not something I should be involved in that may shake the foundation of the parliament."
Miss Sylvia said cautiously, and Miss Galina nodded in disinterest:
"Things are simpler than I thought, but since you promised to keep Shad's secret, I think we can get closer... Interested in accepting my investment?"
She suggested that Xia De obviously saw Miss Sylvia's emotional expression, but she still didn't immediately agree, but pursed her lips and said softly:
"I'll think about it, duke."
"No problem, you can talk to me about it again when you get to Tobesk. However, Shad has something to ask you."
She looked at Xia De, who mentioned this matter while having dinner in the manor.
"Ma'am, Marguerite Anjou, what is the relationship with you?"
Miss Sylvia tapped her finger on the table lightly and recalled:
"After she returned to the United Kingdom from Serkses three years ago, I became the princess's tutor, responsible for mathematics, dance, etiquette, etc. Besides, I deliberately let her discover my identity as a ring wizard , and gave her the power of a witch. Marguerite Anjou knew that I belonged to the Council of Witches, but she was not very comfortable with the power of a witch, and she did not have space talent, so I had no intention of training her as an apprentice .”
Being given the witch's power by the great witch means being restrained by the great witch, so there is no need to worry that the princess will betray.
"It's also the first time I've heard you mention this matter. I didn't expect you to be so close to the royal family of Anjou. But three years ago? That's when your teacher passed away due to an accident in the New World... Giving her the power of a witch is to use her to influence the royal family of Anjou?"
Miss Galina asked curiously, and Miss Silvia hesitated for a moment:
"It's not an influence, it's just an investment. The blood of the Anjou family is not as prosperous as the Cavendish family. Margaret's inheritance is fifth, and I just happened to be her tutor... ..She is very capable, even if she cannot become a queen in the future, she will definitely affect the political arena of the United Kingdom, and there is a high probability that she will become a powerful duke like you."
Xia De listened in surprise, and sighed in his heart that the great witches of the Witch Council are indeed women with both strength and ambition.
"This is indeed a good investment, but the Orthodox Church protects the safety of the human royal family, so be careful not to be targeted by the Church."
Miss Galina reminded again, Miss Sylvia thanked softly, and Shade asked again:
"That is to say, your relationship with her is actually not particularly close?"
"At least not as close as the great witch and the apprentice."
She glanced at Tifa and added:
"But I am her teacher after all, and I have also given her great help in the studies of Ring Warlock. She will not refuse my general request."
Xia De nodded:
"Can you get a book from her? At least transcribe part of it. It is "Secret of Immortality" that Princess Margaret borrowed from Serkses."
"Is there anything special about that book?"
Miss Galina asked, Shade didn't mention this just now.
"Yes, that book used to be in the collection of the Witch Emperor. There is a high probability that there are fragments of poems hidden on the fifth to eighth pages."
This is the task given by Mr. Edmund. Shade will use these contents to exchange one-third of the time for the mysterious slate. But now it seems that this task allows the witches to help, and everyone can get what they want.
"What? A fragment of a poem?"
Miss Sylvia looked at Miss Galina inquiringly. The latter already knew that Shade was also looking for the chosen one, so she wasn't particularly surprised:
"Xia De's news is always so well-informed. If so, Sylvia, you must get that book. Don't make a copy, and bring the book to the parliament. Your Excellency the speaker will be very satisfied."
Miss Sylvia also understood the importance of that book to the council:
"If it's a fragment of a poem, yes, I'll bring it with me. It's worth the risk. But I won't be able to do so until I get to Tobesk at least, and I don't want to make any noise until the mission leaves."
"It doesn't matter, as soon as possible. Although Xia De provided this information, all the credit belongs to you, so I won't get involved."
The red-haired witch said again that she had sold a favor with Xia De's information, and at the same time strengthened their relationship more firmly.
"Duke, thank you for your generosity."
Miss Sylvia said softly, and then asked Xia De again:
"Mr. Hamilton, do you have time to meet tomorrow morning? I have some questions about the space thaumaturgy you used."
"OK."
Miss Sylvia informed Shad of the time and place to meet tomorrow, and then left the parliament. Xia De and Miss Galina didn't stay for long, but after returning to the study of the manor in the southern suburb of Tobesk, Shade was still thinking about the relationship with the new great witch. Miss Galina said with a smile:
"Sylvia, definitely not just investing in Marguerite Anjou."
"She really wants to help that princess fight for the throne? Leaving aside Serkses' reaction, can she really not be discovered by the Church?"
"What if it's just about helping with ordinary people's means?"
Miss Galina snorted and asked Tifa to prepare some snacks:
"The young Sylvia is smarter and more capable than most people I know. Relying on the influence of the great witches of the parliament, coupled with her years of spiritual influence on Marguerite Anjou And control... Don't get me wrong, I'm referring to hints. In short, with the current situation in Carson Rico, she may indeed succeed. At least, the probability of Bilesia becoming the queen of Delarion is higher Much more."
Because there are too many heirs of the Cavendish royal family in the Kingdom of Delarion, and most of them are very capable.
Xia De hugged the sweet Mia sleeping in his arms, hesitated for a long time, and waited for Tifa to walk over with the maids carrying plates before asking:
"Parliament, isn't it really a conspiracy to control the world?"
After asking, he himself laughed:
"It's just a feeling that the Witch Council of the Sixth Epoch seems to have inherited the Council of the Fifth Epoch and wants to reproduce the glory of the past."
"Have you seen the council members of the Fifth Epoch?"
Instead, Miss Galina asked curiously, and Xia De recalled:
"No, the Miss Fei Lianna I know is only an alternate member of parliament."
"The great witches of the fifth era should know more about the council. When you travel in the past and occasionally meet them, you can ask some similar questions."
"Speaking of which, you have always wanted me to meet Miss Fei Lianna again, what question did you want to ask?"
Shad talked about it again:
"The key I'm going to open in a few days, the time point is the fifth era 5177, which is the end of the fifth era~www.mtlnovel.com~ I want to inquire about the 'half-god'."
"Demi god?"
Xia De was puzzled, and even Tifa, who came over with a saucer, blinked suspiciously.
The Duchess shook her head, resting her left hand on the soft armrest of the sofa, lazily looking at the starry sky outside the window:
"Xia De, you once mentioned to me that the witch in the God's Cocktail Party did not hesitate to ask the evil **** for help for power."
"Yes."
"I am also pursuing power, not only from the current eleventh ring to the twelfth ring or even the thirteenth ring, I am longing for higher power. The legend, the real, the limit of mortals. And in the distant first In the Fifth Era, Mana Feilianna is one of the few people who has truly touched that power."
The Duchess's delicate face was slightly upward, and she raised her right hand to the window, as if trying to catch the moons in the distant starry sky. The red lips moved slightly, and in a deep tone like the end of an opera, he sang his thoughts at the moment:
"That's the real power."
The big witches of the Witch Council really have ambitions... and the witches' singing is really nice.
