In short, no matter what happens in Schluchsee, Shad has followed the witches back to the lounge on the third floor of the manor house. At this time, it was close to eleven o'clock in the evening, but the atmosphere of the banquet became more and more lively. Most people here probably won't leave until after midnight, and there's still a long time tonight.
After Xia De sat down on the sofa, he let out a long breath. His whole body seemed to be slumped on the sofa. He looked up at the crystal lamp in the center of the room, with a contented expression on his face. But then his face was covered in shadow, and it was Mia's small head that covered his face, and the cat seemed to be watching Shad's expression.
The harvest of the Battle of Schluchsee not only lies in the further changes of the [Thunder] spirit rune and "Ragley's Leap", but also in the divinity. Divinity is the foundation for outsiders to live a stable life. Whether this drop of divinity is used to sublimate the fourth ring to the fifth ring, or burn the divinity to become a god, it is Xia De's confidence to walk freely in this world.
Tifa and the maids struggled to prepare tea and snacks again, and the two great witches also took their seats. The experience of Shad and Tifa has been clarified on the way back just now, and the witches also know the relationship between the important material [Wisdom Pyroxene] in the ceremony of the chosen one of the fourth chosen one and the so-called Keeper of Secrets .
"The Trial of Vinals: Finding the Unseen 'People' in the Tobesk Region."
While talking, Xia De stretched out two hands to hug the probing cat, and then sat up straight again:
"The epic of the fourth chosen one has finally begun. The invisible man, what does this refer to?"
"Since it's some kind of trial, it probably won't be a few months without clues. There must be quite a few ring warlocks who have heard the content of the trial tonight, and what's interesting is..."
The Duchess looked at Shad:
"The chosen one must have appeared here tonight. Maybe he or she landed on the island, maybe he or she just appeared in the banquet hall. Sylvia's maid and I are on the third floor, since they heard Got it, the ring warlocks in the courtyard, garden, and the first and second floors should also be able to hear it. The question now is, which faction do the chosen ones belong to?"
The high ring warlocks of the church had arrived from the city at this time, but instead of checking the identities of all the guests at the banquet, they blocked Schluchsee for investigation. But obviously, after this banquet, the church and the witches will conduct a detailed identity investigation on all the guests who appeared in Lakeview Manor, but considering the large number of people, and the chosen ones cannot be found out through divination, this is probably a big project.
But at least it can be regarded as a direction of investigation.
The dance started when Xia De was playing Rhodes. Xia De still remembered that he had promised Miss Writer to dance together, so he bid farewell to the two witches soon after, and planned to go to the first floor for a walk. Of course, he kept Little Mia. After all, you can't dance with a cat in your arms. Besides, he was also worried that there would be other things in the future. It was safest to let the witches take care of it.
After Shade left, Miss Galina hugged the reluctant cat, smiled and glanced at Tifa standing behind her:
"Put on a dress and go downstairs to dance with Xia De."
"Miss......"
Tifa was a little embarrassed.
"Don't show this expression, am I someone who is very strict with you?"
She urged and waved her hand, and Tifa was ready to change clothes.
"Miss Galina, you are really generous."
The young witch sitting across from her said, with a smile on the duchess' delicate face:
"Tifa is mine, and Shade is mine, how generous is that?"
After a deliberate pause, he said softly:
"I'm not so generous to other people."
She looked at Miss Sylvia, who didn't seem to understand the "warning":
"Before I came to Tobesk, I always thought that in your relationship, it was Hamilton who was taking advantage of you. Judging from tonight, Mr. Hamilton seems to be the helper."
"You did discover a part of the truth. Shade defines our relationship as cooperation. Sometimes I think I owe him. This is really a wonderful relationship."
Miss Galina said that she knew that Miss Silvia was curious about many things, but she was willing to watch this curious witch alone:
"Tonight's affairs should be reported to the parliament as soon as possible. It seems that this winter, we will also be busy."
When Xia De went back downstairs and saw Dorothy again, Rezia was not by her side. Shade found her easily because he had made an appointment in advance to dance with Dorothy.
The blonde girl had been waiting for Xia De for a long time, and when she saw Xia De approaching, she couldn't wait to hold his hand, and walked towards the dancing crowd together.
After many dances, although Xia De is not proficient in dancing now, at least he will not accidentally step on girls' feet again. When the dance with Dorothy was over, Dorothy also praised Shad for his improvement in dancing skills. Before she further asked about Xia De's training method, Xia De took out the round gold-plated small box that had been kept in his pocket overnight. After opening, there was the heart-shaped ruby inside:
"Dorothy, here you are."
He handed out the gem, and this time Dorothy accepted it with restraint.
"Knight, this jewel is really beautiful, and it matches Miss Louisa very well."
Rezia's voice appeared from the side, and the princess wearing the silver crown smiled and led her maid.
Xia De pretended to straighten his collar, then stretched out his hand:
"Your Highness, may I have the honor to invite you to the next dance?"
There are many people around, people can hear Shade's voice.
Rezia raised her neck and said, her hand wearing a white lace glove was also placed on Xia De's hand.
After Rezia, Shad saw Tifa walking in a blue dress and black high heels. It is rare for Xia De to see Tifa appearing in a dress. She seemed a little shy and did not speak in front of Xia De, so Xia De took the initiative to invite again.
However, after dancing the brisk dance with Tifa, there was still no reminder that he had proved his charm.
The banquet was approaching late at night, and Xia De, who was still a little impatient before the banquet, felt that he let go of this attachment at this moment.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that he has successfully obtained a drop of divinity.
Since his plan failed, and dancing with beautiful girls at the ball proved nothing, Xia De let himself temporarily forget about the so-called mission and concentrate on enjoying the remaining time of this grand wedding ceremony.
After dancing with Tifa, Rezia was called away by her sister Lianna Barov, who married the Marquis of Barov, and Dorothy saw Dr. Schneider, so she went to talk to the doctor temporarily.
Shad took Tifa back to the courtyard, and somehow walked into the shadow of the hedge and kissed together.
It's just that Tifa didn't stay by Shad's side for too long. After the long kiss was over, she kissed Shad's side face again, and then returned to the manor house in a good mood with her hands behind her back.
"It's so lively..."
Everyone left their side for the time being, even Mia wasn't here for the time being. Standing alone in the courtyard, Xia De sighed unconsciously as he looked at the tents illuminated by gas lamps and the beautifully dressed people walking among them.
Whoosh~
There was a sudden sound above the head, and then it exploded with a bang.
Xia De raised his head and saw beams of light flying into the night sky, and then exploded into fireworks. The fireworks illuminated his face, and Xia De let out a sigh of relief:
"Although I don't plan to go back anymore, for some reason, I feel homesick now."
[At least this banquet, you did not leave any regrets. 】
"She" said softly in Xia De's ear:
[Many years later, when you revisit the night you spent in Lake View Manor, you will get more than you thought. 】
"Yes, this is really the best memory...Since you are comforting me, does this count as comforting yourself?"
Xia De raised his head and asked in his heart, the light from the fireworks illuminated his eyes:
"But there are still regrets."
[Failed to prove wisdom and charm? 】
"of course not."
Xia De said softly in his heart:
"Divinity is a power that transcends the mundane. The acquisition of any drop of divinity is related to fate and cannot be forced. I regret that there is a person I want to dance with, but I can't dance with me at this time."
He looked at the moon in the starry sky, with his hands behind his back nervously.
There was a smile in his ear, but "she" didn't answer right away, but Xia De knew that "she" was watching the night sky with fireworks exploding together with him.
Rays of light rushed to the sky, and the fireworks exploding under the starry sky were so gorgeous~www.mtlnovel.com~ The noisy sounds in the banquet courtyard and the vague music in the mansion behind were so loud in the middle of the night.
Although Xia De doesn't like to drink, but at this moment he wants to pick up the wine glass and quietly watch the fireworks under the stars with "her":
"Recalling this night many years later, I should be very emotional."
He turned around and returned to the manor mansion, but after stepping into the gate of the mansion, he suddenly felt the wind blowing something cold to his ears. Xia De froze suddenly, and then heard the people in the courtyard of the manor talking excitedly.
"This is......"
Turning around, taking two quick steps and returning to the courtyard, facing the brightly lit mansion with his back, Xia De raised his head to look at the deep sky, and then spread his left hand that was not holding anything. A small crystal snowflake fell from the dark night onto Xia De's **** palm, and then quietly melted.
There was a surprised smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked up at the front. In just a few minutes, the tiny snowflakes like sugar grains had already fallen profusely.
"Oh, it's snowing!"
In the sixth era, in the universal calendar year 1853, the first snow in Tobesk came quietly on the night of Tuesday, the nineteenth day of the Frost Moon.
