Whispering Poems

Chapter 1284 Full Fruit

"I don't intend to interrupt your 'tryst', but I forgot to tell you about one thing just now."

Miss Galina said, looking around the room casually, and then noticed that the cat on the bed was looking at her:
"Sylvia asked me to inform you that your investment has been successful. Her experiment has made critical progress, and the yield of samples made through the steam factory is also very high. Probably this autumn or winter, you will be able to get to the first dividend."

"invest?"

Xia De thought for a while, recalling what Miss Sylvia said before leaving, he even gave the young witch 5000 pounds:
"Successful? That is, synthetic fibers"

Xia De raised his eyebrows. This is quite an achievement. Miss Sylvia became the first person in the world to synthesize artificial fibers. This is an achievement that can be recorded in history books.

"What artificial synthetic fibers, didn't you cooperate to invest in women's clothing textiles?"

As Galina Cavendish said, she took two steps back, lifted the hem of her skirt with both hands and turned around in a circle:

"I deliberately changed into a nightdress with a higher skirt, but you still haven't noticed any difference between me and the past?"

Tifa on the side quietly stretched out her finger, Shade followed her pointing, looked down, and saw the black close-fitting fabric covering the feet and calves.In this world, this kind of fabric is quite rare, and he has only seen it on the great witch of the fifth era.The small feet are wrapped, and the clothes fit the perfect curve of the legs.The translucent black fabric stretched up into the skirt, leaving just the right amount of reverie.

He blinked his eyes and said quite gratifiedly:

"It's really amazing, Miss Sylvia succeeded so quickly! I dare say, this is definitely one of the most important inventions in the human world in this century! The success of artificial synthetic fibers does not only mean that weaving industry has gone the other way, which also means that chemistry and”

"I understand why Sylvia fell in love with you, Xia De, is this all you want to say?"

Miss Galina stared at him, without Tifa's reminder this time, Xia De understood by himself:
"The fabric suits you very nicely, very nicely. Though I think the one that allows me to see you directly is more beautiful without the fabric."

His eyes were fixed on the pair of black shoes, looking up from the bottom:
"It's so perfect, it's like a work of art. Although the clothes serve as a decoration, they can't let me see the white color and perfect lines"

Can't help but wonder what kind of nylon Miss Sylvia can produce, Xia De suggested:
"Can I touch it?"

"Oh, knight, what is this request? What a disgrace!"

The witch's face was rarely flushed. Girls in this era can't easily see their legs, let alone comment like Xia De:
"It's really Xia Xia. It's really"

She turned and left, but she didn't look angry with Xia De, but really shy.Xia De still wanted to speak, but Tifa suddenly kissed his side face:

"Good dreams, knight."

She said softly, pressing her right index finger on her lips, and then on Shade's mouth, and then quickly followed Miss Galina.

Xia De also walked to the corridor, stood at the door and watched them enter the master bedroom on the third floor next door.Miss Galina glanced at Shad before entering the door, then turned her head away with a blushing face and did not speak to him.

He didn't return to his room until the maids urged Xia De to go back to the bedroom to rest, and declared that Miss Galina would not come to see him tonight.

The cat was still watching him from the bed. Just now the cat thought it was going to fall asleep in the cloakroom again tonight.

【Why, don't you regret rejecting the witch at the dinner table? 】

Suddenly heard the voice of "her", Xia De thought for a while, picked up the cat and climbed onto the bed, it was indeed time to sleep:
"Thinking about it now, I regret it a bit. But as I said just now, let Miss Galina think about it for herself. Moreover, this is indeed a promise between me and Leizia. I am a very honest person, yes, Very honest. Promised Luvia to go to the end, Promised Dorothy to keep telling her stories, Promised Rezia about Miss Galina"

He didn't turn off the lights immediately, but lay on the gorgeous exaggerated four-poster bed, leaning sideways against the head of the bed, feeling the smoothness of the quilt and the softness of the mattress, and looking out at the starry sky through the window.

"She" smiled softly in his ear:

[Sixth Era, 1854, late winter, a moon with few stars.Lying in bed and looking at the starry sky, the stars wink at you.Worrying strangers, how many people do you know who can't sleep tonight because of you?When you take a heart, you are destined to hold that heart.And these warmths that are gentle enough to fill your chest will accompany you to sleep in many, many long nights.The thread of fetters involves you and her, which is also your anchor in this world.A new star appeared in the sky, and it was a night to remember.May you have a small harbor in this world and be no longer alone. 】

"That doesn't sound like your tone of voice. Why do you say that?"

Xia De blinked and looked at the starry sky outside the window. The air in the suburbs is very good. Even if it is a sparse moon, you can still see those shining stars.Mia stood on Xia De who was lying on his side, and also looked out the window.

[The reunion after a long separation, the respect and understanding you showed for her, and the just-right ambiguity.The fruit of the fetters has already been filled.A current great witch, giving you her heart. 】

Xia De interpreted this as "full favorability".

"You didn't say it when Rezia, Luvia, and Dorothy were at it. Well, you did."

He still remembers the sentences of "pure blood" and "the red butterfly flies with you".

"She" smiled softly, and Xia De also smiled.

After a while—

[Outlander. 】

"I'm here."

[The night is very deep, go to sleep. 】

"Then, good night."

He closed his eyes and gradually fell asleep.Seeing that Xia De's breathing was gradually becoming even, Mia also jumped off his body, lay down in front of Xia De's face facing the window, lightly "meow~", rolled into a cat ball shape, and closed her eyes. Amber eyes.

The man and the cat fell into a dreamland, the gas lamp in the room turned off automatically, the starlight from the window shone on Xia De's face and the orange cat's back, everything was peaceful.After a while, the quilt automatically pulled up, covering Xia De's exposed shoulders.

(Mia is running.)

After breakfast at the manor on Saturday morning, Xia De went into the city with Miss Galina who was going to Yodel Palace, and then went to Randall Valley City as planned.

Margaret's recent schedule is very full, Shade did not find her this morning, so at the Wilde Opera House, he gave all the documents of the Stonemasons' Association to Miss Bernice and entrusted her to bring them to Margaret. special.

"And this one, Power of the Earth·Summoning Stone Statue."

He still didn't forget to take out the statuette. Although the witch had heard his story about Thursday, she was still surprised:

"This can even be called 'summoning golems', yes, it suits me very well. The rumors of moving stone statues in the Stonemasons' Association have a history of hundreds of years, but you solved them overnight. This is definitely not What a coincidence, do you still have any special investigative skills?"

Shad just brought a special fortune teller, Luvia.

"In short, the power of the earth and the summoning stone statue will be handed over to you. In this way, we will have three ring magicians who master the power of the earth. How is the investigation between you and Miss Lassus?"

he asked.

"Still following the path her father used to take, and there are not many discoveries yet. However, the auction house has basically confirmed the location of the three auction items that are suspected to be related to the 'Heart of the Earth'. Come to me next Monday Come here to get the documents, and then we can start a new round of investigation on this."

The girls of the Golden Dawn moved faster than Shad thought.

"In addition, for the local evil believers, the Church of the Five Gods in this diocese decided to take immediate action against them in order to avoid what happened in Tobesk last summer. When I heard the news, the Church of the Five Gods had already made a plan , there will probably be a big move this weekend.”

The Witch completely took this incident as an interesting story, after all, neither she nor Xia De participated in it:
"The cultist who holds the [Power of the Earth·Stone Incarnation] should be the key target of this operation without accident. I will be there at that time and try to capture him. Now about the upcoming Randall Valley The news of the fifth electorate has been confirmed by the three major academies and the Church of the Five Gods. The church wants to use this action to deter ring magicians from all over the world who are attracted by the news of the electorate, hoping that they will succeed .”

He said and looked at Xia De:

"So this weekend, I want you to drop all operations in Randall Valley and wait until the big church operation is over."

This is also for Xia De's safety, Xia De knows that she cares about herself:
"No problem, I wasn't going to do anything locally for the weekend. I'll be home in a while, I have an important meeting in Tobesk this afternoon, and tomorrow I'm going to Princess Adelina Cavendish's 17 birthday party, it will be very lively."

Miss Benanis frowned slightly holding the statuette covered with golden runes:

"Agerina Cavendish? I only heard Galina and Sylvia talking about Rezia Cavendish and you."

Adelina was a princess who didn't participate in politics and rarely appeared in the newspapers of the Southland, so Miss Bernanice wasn't even sure if she had heard the name before.After all, there are too many princesses in the Cavendish royal family.

"She is Rezia's younger sister. Although she is just an ordinary person, she is very inspired. I even believe that she has the talent of a prophet. Rezia intends to help her get free, and Adelina is also eager to get her sister's recognition and help. .”

Xia De briefly explained the situation, and the corners of Miss Bernanice's lipsticked lips curled up slightly:
"So, the young princess of the royal family, who yearns for freedom, seeks help from the upright, kind, and compassionate young handsome and strong knight? So, she has a good relationship with you? Oh, I can guess from your expression Come out. So, can you satisfy my curiosity as an 'old woman', what does the statue you plan to give to the little princess look like?"
