Whispering Poems

Chapter 1140 The Witch and Shade

Three pairs of golden eyes with very similar colors looked at Xia De with strange eyes, and Xia De flinched subconsciously.

"Meow~"

The cat squirmed in Xia De's arms, and made threatening calls at the witches, trying to protect Xia De.

"What kind of eyes are you looking at? Oh, although Sister Devlin has already said that you are all right, I am relieved to see that you are intact."

Xia De walked towards the sofa hesitantly while talking, but the witches didn't change their expressions because of his words:
"It's good that you're fine. But Xia De, what's going on from Wednesday night to Thursday morning?"

Four couches surround the coffee table, which is covered with desserts such as cakes decorated with fruits and sandwich muffins. On the tray with embossed mirror surface, there are 8 porcelain cups, each with delicate sterling silver Openwork ear cup holder.A few books are stacked on the corner of the coffee table, with leaf-shaped bookmarks sandwiched between them, teapots, glass water bottles, gold candlesticks, and silver tableware are placed messily on the transparent glass tabletop.

The three witches sat in three directions respectively, so Xia De sat alone on the sofa facing the window. Hard to find fresh fruit.

"If you want to know what happened in the early hours of Thursday."

Last night, he had already discussed with "Maid Luvia" what to say to the witches, so the life ring appeared behind him, and the life ring of the five-ring warlock appeared in front of the witches:
"My language of sublimation. The echo of time and space, shaking the sleeping power."

Every time a word is spoken, the corresponding spirit rune will flash on the life ring.The ladies looked up at his ring, frowning slightly.

"So, the five great witches were really summoned by you? I have never heard that the language of sublimation can have such an effect."

Miss Aurora said, Xia De nodded, and there is no record in St. Byrence's "Book of Sublimation" that this sublimation language can have this effect.The original record is that the language of sublimation builds a long river under the starlight. In the language of sublimation, time can be arbitrarily manipulated to pause, speed up, or even reverse for a short time.

"Introduce the ladies."

Miss Galina said, Xia De nodded and pursed his lips:

"Those five ladies are the Witch Emperor Violet at the end of the Fifth Epoch, Miss Schultz Theresa, the principal of the Higher Medical College of Sussex, and the founder of St. Byrons in the middle of the Fifth Era. Miss Na Fei Lianna, her student is also Miss Olan Nord, the first librarian of the college, and Miss Chloe Marquez, a witch from the early fifth era, she is a member of the Zarath Society Early creators and participants. They are all friends I met during the time exploration.”

The witches looked at each other. Although they had already guessed the answer, they still couldn't believe it was confirmed by Xia De.

Miss Galina looked at him and asked:
"Who else knows about this besides us?"

"There are two other people, Iluna and my fortune-teller friend. But Granny Cassandra should be able to guess. I have asked her for help many times to collect some information and key items of the Fifth Epoch."

"Don't tell more people about this."

Miss Sylvia spoke seriously, and did not ask him for more details, but said with concern:
"You probably don't understand how much impact what you did in the early hours of Thursday has had. Not only summoning witches from the past era, but also demigods. There are no demigods in the sixth era now."

"I get it, so I'm just going to tell you that I have complete trust in you."

The ladies smiled, and the atmosphere suddenly became more relaxed.Miss Galina picked up the teacup, Miss Aurora reached out to play with her hair hanging around her ears, and Miss Sylvia poured tea for Shad.

"Speaking of which, Miss Galina, I want to apologize to you. I accidentally destroyed that "Secret of Immortality""

Before the red-haired witch spoke, he talked about his follow-up with Miss Teresa and Miss Violet, and what happened at the top of the lighthouse in the early hours of Thursday:

"The two witches at the end of the Fifth Epoch hid something in that book and left it to me in the next Era. I think Miss Pavo of the [Truth Society] wants to get the "Secret of Immortality", Probably for this."

The roll of parchment seemed blank to others, so Shad could only explain what it was in words.After listening to Xia De's description, there was something more in the eyes of the witches. The Duchess patted the sofa cushion next to her, so Xia De changed positions with the cat in his arms and sat next to Miss Galina. The witch took the teacup from Miss Sylvia and stuffed it into his hand:
"If you don't mind, copy three or four copies of the above and give it to us and Granny Cassandra."

"No problem, I actually don't understand some of the knowledge of high-ring warlocks. This is my gift for the end of the year to you. Happy end of the year, ladies."

Xia De said softly, and Miss Galina kissed him on the side of the cheek:
"Happy New Year's Eve."

Miss Aurora and Miss Sylvia were a little embarrassed, they knew the value of that knowledge.

Shad went on to say:

"In addition, when I was adventuring with Miss Chloe in the Fifth Era, I witnessed her complete the demigod path."

bang~
The tea cup in Miss Aurora's hand fell on the carpet, and the black tea in the delicate porcelain cup wet the carpet, but she didn't care.

Xia De had to stop talking, not because the teacup fell to the ground, but because the three witches looked at him as if they were going to eat him.Feeling the "hostility" again, the little cat meowed again, and it didn't settle down until Xia De stuffed another strawberry.

"Did you see the sublimation ceremony of the demigod witch in the Fifth Epoch?"

The red-haired witch suddenly panted heavily.

"It's not a complete ceremony. In fact, that story is very interesting, and at the end of the story, she gave me an ice crystal that records the path of the demigod. Oh, Miss Galina, your hand is too hard."

The Duchess held Shad's right hand, and only let go after hearing Shad's complaints, but the movement of clenching his hand reminded Shad of Tifa when "taking the potion" yesterday afternoon.

"Xia De, where is that ice crystal?"

Miss Sylvia leaned forward slightly to look at her, and the other two witches also looked similar.

"In the snowdrifts in the basement at home, I think it's best not to take out such important things. Miss Galina, when you return to Tobesk, you can go to my house to check."

Both Miss Aurora and Miss Sylvia looked at Miss Galina, who nodded slightly, but her eyes were fixed on Xia De:

"Xia De, you are better than we thought. It is not so easy for witches to fall in love with you, but you are worth it. My knight, please accept my thanks."

She kissed Xia De in front of the two witches.

This kiss was quite excessive, and Xia De couldn't stop it at all as he touched the cat with one hand and held the teacup in the other.

Miss Galina didn't care that the other two ladies were still here, and it took a long time to let go of Xia De. The eager expression under the witch's beautiful appearance almost melted Xia De:

"I knew that you would be able to help me obtain the secret of the demigod witch from the past time and space!"

She closed her eyes, held Shad's face and wanted to continue kissing, but was driven away by Miya who jumped on Shad's shoulder.Of course, it is more likely that Miss Aurora coughed loudly a few times:

"Galina, calm down, and listen to me first. Shade, we will help you cover up what happened on Thursday. When the speaker asks, everything will be pushed to the Godcaller, and Sister Devlin will also talk to you about it." We speak with one voice"

"However, is Xia De a Godcaller?"

Miss Sylvia asked again, the other two witches were silent, Shade touched his lips and gave an answer:
"I have always been the one who uses the mythos, and I am also the holder of [Night Watchman]. There is no tangible evidence that the Godcaller owns the Mysia and Night Watchman. That is just a speculation made by the church based on facts."

"Are you trying to say that, in fact, you and the summoner have been confused by the church all along?"

The wavy-haired witch asked with a smile, but Xia De was noncommittal:
"I can be, or I can't be."

They didn't pursue the topic further, but each had their own answer.

"The chosen one of knowledge and wisdom, are you?"

Miss Galina asked again, so close that the scent of the perfume completely overwhelmed the aroma of the black tea.

"Of course not. I won't be the chosen one. There's no need to lie."

Xia De paused:
"I used the knowledge obtained by Iluna Bayas to deprive him of the qualifications of the Chosen One without killing him. So now, even though Rakins Priscia is still alive, but The chosen ones of knowledge and wisdom, like the chosen ones of darkness, may be considered dead."

About the arrow, Luvia decided not to tell anyone except Sister Devlin and Iluna.And other people don't have the ability to perceive the power of the Chosen One, so as long as Shad doesn't often use [Ikenora-Arrow of the Chosen One], there is no need to worry about being exposed.

Xia De agrees with Luvia's idea very much. The qualifications of the candidates are indeed too important, and it is fine to pretend that they do not exist, and there is no need to add extra complications.

"That's it"

Miss Aurora nodded, probably thinking about how to report this matter to the parliament.

Xia De continued to touch the cat and drink tea, thought for a while and said:
"Miss Galina, Tifa told me yesterday that she can already be promoted to the seventh ring."

"I can also advance to the twelfth ring. The enlightenment of the chosen one's ceremony is very effective. The power of the witches and the ring magician promote each other, which means that the twelfth rank is just around the corner."

Speaking of this topic, the Duchess smiled again:
"Although the Epic of the Chosen One is dangerous, it is indeed very useful. I know that you have been recuperating in the manor recently. When I was away from Tobesk, did you do anything?"

"Cough cough."

Xia De was choked by the black tea and coughed a few times. Miss Aurora was very understanding and helped him break the subject in time:
"I was a little far away at the time, and I just obtained a new kind of thaumaturgy. I am still the twelfth ring and the twelfth level, the same as Galina after the ceremony. I don't know, who of us can touch the thirteenth first step."

It's a pity for the lady with long, wavy brown hair.

"I have gained some knowledge, but I still need to try and experiment concretely to get results."

Miss Sylvia also said with a smile, and blinked her right eye at Xia De:
"Maybe in the near future, I will be able to give you some surprises...surprises in every sense."
