Whispering Poems

Chapter 1046 Rewards for Defeating Demons

After Sir Priscia walked away, in the shadows on the other side of the road, Luvia, wrapped in a brown lady's coat and woolen scarf, emerged from the darkness:

"The angel's bloodline that Xia De guessed is actually true, and he can use this method to forcibly stimulate the bloodline's power?"

The purple-eyed girl thought in her heart, then looked up at the traces of red butterflies that had dispersed in the starry sky above her head, knowing that Xia De had probably left this area:
"The devil's business seems to be over, and Dorothy should move out of No. [-], Place Saint Teresa soon."

Thinking of this, she felt very good. She knew that Xia De had a hard time fighting against the devil tonight, so she planned to go to Saint Teresa Square tomorrow to see Xia De's situation.

But before he walked two steps along Luoxue Street, he stopped again, because the gray stone angel statue was parked not far in front of him.

The snow fell on her shoulders but did not melt. Luvia looked at the statue not far away, pursed her lips and put her hands into her pockets.As a prophet, when she encounters danger, the first thing she thinks of is not "fight or run" like Xia De. She usually first flips a coin to observe the fate.

"Are you repenting?"

But before Luvia took out the coin, overlapping echoes entered her ears.She looked at the statue with slight hesitation, and after confirming that she was the only one on this snowy street, she asked suspiciously:
"Repent for what?"

The street lamp made Luvia's long shadow fall on the snow, and another mature girl with purple eyes appeared behind her, but she didn't realize it.

[Weeping Angel] did not move forward, but the stone circular base slid back along the street, and the sound of stone rubbing against stone was extremely disturbing:

"You do not deserve to be exiled to the end of time, cursed one, your sins are unforgivable."

The statue of the angel disappeared on the street, only the snow fell like goose feathers, and the snow was getting bigger and bigger.

"What do you mean?"

Luvia was still puzzled, and she tossed a coin but didn't find anything.

The transparent and illusory figure stretched out its arms around her neck at this moment, and the two almost identical faces were pressed together.On that mature face, there was an unresolved worry.

On the other side, Shad had already trotted from the southern area of ​​Tobesque, through the university area, and returned to Saint Teresa Square.

The sound of the door opening first attracted Miya, who was jumping downstairs. Miss Writer appeared at the corner of the stairs after a step, but she didn't see Xia De's figure:
"Huh? Shad?"

Mia was jumping on the stone statue on the side of the hall, and that statue fit so well with the environment of the hall that Dorothy thought it was there before, subconsciously ignoring the statue.

She walked out of the open door and looked towards the snow-falling square, but she didn't see any sign of Xia De. She was frowning and wanted to shout again, but Xia De's voice came from behind her:

"I am here."

Dorothy turned around and saw Shad change from the statue to the real person.

"Can you stop being so childish?"

She said reproachfully, turned around and closed the door, and then hugged him lightly, forcing the cat that was originally in Xia De's arms to jump onto her shoulders.

"The devil's matter is resolved!"

Xia De hugged Dorothy and said happily.

"Yes, Rezia has already told me."

Dorothy nodded her head with a smile, and kissed Shade's side face:
"But what did you do tonight? She seems worried about you."

"It's okay, I'm fine."

The two walked up the stairs together:

"Prepare me a glass of water, there are still some things to do."

The teacup filled with water was placed in the empty room No. [-] on the second floor. Dorothy waited temporarily in Room [-]. Shade sat on the floor of Room [-], holding the cat and looking at the glass of water.

They were facing the window of the living room of Room [-], the moonlight was shining on the floor, and there was heavy snow blowing outside:
"Cough cough."

Xia De cleared his throat and made a joke about cats:
"What is the difference between Mia and a monkey?"

He asked the cat squatting on his lap, and the cat looked at him suspiciously with wide eyes.

"The difference is that Minia can't walk on only two hind legs."

Mia changed her squatting position and lowered her head to stare at her little paws.

"What's the difference between Little Mia and a dog?"

Xia De asked again, and then said with a smile:

"The difference is that Mia can't bark like a dog."

The cat meowed a few times.

"Then what is the difference between Mia and me?"

Xia De finally asked, the cat's tail moved up and down, looking very flexible, so Xia De grabbed the cat's tail:
"The difference is that Mia can't hold this tail."

"Meow~"

The cat clawed away Shad's hand, and became interested in its own tail.It stared at the tail as if it was fighting a worm, and then chased the tail in circles, making Xia De laugh again.

"It's actually not funny."

There was a sound in the teacup, Xia De looked at the glass of water, and the sage-level relic [Prank Boy] that once appeared on the lake in Regent’s Park appeared in the reflection of the water:
"However, you did defeat the demon, I admit it. So, what gift do you need?"

The boy asked, Xia De immediately shook his head:
"I do not want anything."

"Yes, yes, you obviously want everything, but you don't say anything."

The boy sarcastically said that the blue teardrop-shaped figure fell into the teacup with a "click", lying quietly at the bottom of the liquid:

"But this time I didn't see those witches. I'm still very happy. Those crazy women, even in the Sixth Epoch, are still so annoying. The sacrifices of flesh and soul are just rough, gold and silver Sacrifice, they have never been able to give out real money!"

He looked particularly angry, and Xia De felt that Miss Galina and Miss Silvia probably didn't do it on purpose, and the two big witches probably just found the corresponding steps from the records of the council.

After complaining about the witch, the malevolent boy in the reflection of the teacup looked at Xia De again:

"Although I am following in the footsteps of [Secret Keeper], in the distant past, I was also a follower of [Innocent Creator], and I was envious of the glory of that old god."

"so."

Xia De raised his eyebrows, the boy smiled and said:

"Since you have also received the favor of that god, why don't I give you some extra rewards as a reward for defeating the demon so quickly and beautifully."

Saying that, its right hand was aimed at Shad like a pistol:

"Oh!"

At the same time as there was a sound in his mouth, the sound of gunfire actually appeared.Mia was taken aback, Xia De subconsciously dodged to the side, and then felt something brush his cheek.

"Xia De, why are there gunshots?"

Dorothy burst in through the door in the wall that connected rooms one and two, and saw Shad's hands pushed back on the floor for support.He touched his face in a little surprise, and found that there was an ink mark on his face. Then he looked at the wall behind him, and there was also a group of ink marks on the whitewashed wall.

What was shot just now was not a bullet at all, but a ball of ink.

The figure of the mischievous boy in the teacup had disappeared, and the frightened cat threw itself into Xia De's arms.He reached out to fish out the [Wise Man's Pyroxene] from the teacup, then stood up half complaining:
"It really is a prank boy."

"Go and wash your face."

Dorothy laughed and said:

"You have to pray now, this ink stain can be easily washed off, I don't want to peel off your face and treat it for you."

Only the cat held by Xia De tilted its head and looked at the ink stains on the wall illuminated by the faint moonlight. It was very familiar with that position.

The ink stains on his face were easily washed off, which made Xia De really relieved.As for the ink stains on the walls, you can paint them with paint, or hang up photo frames or oil paintings to cover them up. This is not a big problem.

And when Xia De came out of the bathroom, he was hugged by the blonde girl head-on.

The lights in the living room had been turned off at some point, only the fire was still dancing in the fireplace.Goldilocks' body was so soft that she held Shad's head and pressed him to her chest:

"Oh, Rezia!"

Her Royal Highness, who has completed the soul exchange with Dorothy at some point, has already made a bed in front of the fireplace:
"This is your reward for defeating the demon and rescuing the princess."

The firelight from the fireplace reflected the entangled shadows of the two on the wall.

(Mia is running.)

Dorothy was invited to live with Shade's house because of the threat of demons.And on the new Monday when the demon has been exorcised, Dorothy, who woke up with Shad in front of the fireplace, offered to move back to her apartment:
"Quill Street is very close to the publishing house and newspaper office, and the writer's club I often go to is also there, and"

The girl in the corset glanced reproachfully at the yawning Xia De:
"If I don't move out, what will Rezia and Luvia think of me and help me."

She turned around:

"Resia, what were you so excited about last night? I slept right in her bedroom in the middle of the night, and she replaced me in no time. If she didn't want it by herself. Shade, if this continues, a sorceress alone I can't deal with you anymore, I can't keep [Youth Immature Leaf] in my mouth every time, it will affect kissing very much."

She said rather reproachfully, but actually had a faint smile on her face with her back to Xia De.

Xia De is not good to make any comments on this, he can only wave his hand to make the flame in the fireplace more vigorous.The snow that started last night is still falling, and it is getting bigger and bigger. Looking out of the window in the morning, the snowflakes are like cotton falling to the ground.The month of deep sleep has reached the ninth day, and according to the climate of Tobesk, the coldest period of the year is coming.

"Speaking of which, this Wednesday afternoon, the third red butterfly day is coming again."

Goldilocks pretended to mention this unintentionally. The last Red Butterfly Day started on the 19th of Frost's Moon, with the wedding on Tuesday afternoon, and ended at noon on the 20th of Frost's Fall.Calculating the time, 21 days later, it happens to be this Wednesday.
