Whispering Poems

Chapter 1385 Crystal Slippers

"In short, if you need my assistance recently, go directly to the association to find me. When Iluna comes, we will discuss the plan in detail. The current poems are still not enough. I only know that there will be a banquet, but I don't know if the location of the banquet will be There are special rules."

Luvia spoke again.

"Would you like to try a coin?"

Shad asked.

"Keep it, it's not the most urgent moment yet."

Luvia shook her head, and then mentioned what happened last night:
"Your teacher, Miss Dennist, came to see me, around nine o'clock."

She really didn't notice that Xia De actually came once:
"Professors from Zaras College of Letters came during the incident at Lake Eldron, and professors from Serkses can arrive this afternoon. In this way, professors from the three major colleges have arrived in the local area, The church is likely to organize a big operation in the near future."

"What did Miss Denist say to you last night?"

Xia De asked curiously, and the purple-eyed girl showed a smile on her face:
"Send me that a certain gentleman in Tobesk misses me very much."

Xia De showed a reserved expression:

"I do miss you."

"Meow~"

Mia yelled too.

"In addition, Miss Daniste also told me that I will not be able to return to Tobesk until at least spring. This time it is not because of work. The situation in the Randall Valley is very complicated now, and the local ring weavers cannot leave easily. The earth The pollution will spread to far away areas through the footsteps of travelers, and the ring warlocks will have a greater impact on this. So for the safety of Tobesk, I'd better wait here for the end of the matter."

Nothing new happened all day on Saturday. During the meeting in the afternoon, Shade informed the doctor and others that Luvia would stay in the Randall Valley for at least half a month. Everyone just regretted that Luvia missed Tobes Gram's half winter.

After the meeting, Xia De stayed alone to talk to the doctor about the devil.Of course, the focus is on Stone Oxenfurt's pact with the devil.

Doctors are quite cautious about this:

"You're right. He certainly didn't tell the whole process of the contract, but what he said should be true. According to my understanding of Goethe, about how to obtain Oxenfurt's soul, the second half of the contract, It should not only be 'killing the undead contractor with a power other than a demon', but should include other very strict conditions. For example, killing while standing on the moon, or killing under the sun in the dark night."

"The devil signed such a strict treaty, what good does it do me?"

Xia De asked puzzledly:
"I dislike the dullness of life, and deliberately find some stimulation for myself?"

"It wants mortals to feel that they are the one who has taken advantage of the contract. Otherwise, who would a normal person really sign a contract with a devil?"

replied the doctor, who was quite familiar with the tricks of the devil:
"But in fact, demons who are good at playing with terms have some ways to achieve impossible things. For example, if the content of the terms is really 'On the moon, use power other than Goethe to kill the immortal Stone Olson Forte', then the demon will definitely lead Oxenfurt to a certain area with a moon pattern."

Xia De nodded and understood a little:
"So, Oxenfurt didn't tell me all the conditions of the contract, maybe he died because of this in the end. After all, I don't know how to avoid doing so."

"But if he told you all the contents of the contract, you would be equivalent to mastering how to kill him."

The doctor smiled, with a smile on his face but quite serious eyes:
"You have the power to choose, and the stone mirror demon Goethe also has the power to choose, only Oxenfurt has no power to make a choice. That's why I said, don't make deals with the devil lightly, it won't do you any good."

On Saturday night, Dorothy gave Shad a lesson in fairy tales as usual at No. [-], Place Saint Teresa.But before this lesson, Xia De took out the newly obtained Rhodes Card [Ancient Fairy Tale Cinderella].

While Miss Writer was "making fun of" Xia De for not forgetting to play cards with others when he was out of town, she was also curious about what Xia De wanted to ask.

"About the story of "Grey's Glass Slipper", we have learned most of the popular versions so far. This ancient fairy tale, in fact, I felt inexplicably familiar from the very beginning when I heard you tell it."

The two sat at the desk and talked, Xia De put down the cards in his hand, and the life ring slowly appeared behind him. The sound of the siren and the bell made Mia tilt her head to look curiously:

"Enlightenment - The Little Match Girl, Miracle - The Kiss of the Tree, Enlightenment - Sleeping Princess, Enlightenment - Water of Wisdom."

As he read out his spirit runes in turn, the four spirit runes shone brightly.The light of the four spiritual runes is connected together on the life ring, as if there is a golden and copper-colored light belt on the life ring itself.

Xia De narrowed his eyes slightly, and then the originally bright light in the study suddenly became dim.Dorothy put down the book in her hand, reached out to catch the drifting snow, and then looked up at the "melting" ceiling.Half of the ceiling has disappeared, revealing the brilliant starry sky and the holy silver moon.

The furnishings in the study did not disappear, but merged with the blurry snowy night street scene.Since Xia De's four mythos constitute an extremely large compound mytho, the requirements for casting spells are further increased. Therefore, even if it is already a fifth ring, Xia De still cannot use the full power of any one of the mythos under normal conditions:

"I doubt it very much, Cinderella is also the story I brought to the Fifth Epoch."

He expressed his judgment, and then picked up the Rhodes card again.With a light throw, the group of red butterflies flew to the distance of the street with the cards.The dancing red butterflies brought out the streamer in the snowy night, and the scarlet streamer accompanied the group of red butterflies, forming the pumpkin carriage that Xia De imagined in the distance of the street.

Dorothy tilted her head to watch the scene:
"It's very interesting, Xia De's fairy tale kingdom, the area will expand again?"

She joked:

"Don't discuss the mysteries of time with me. After all, I don't know as much as you. Xia De, what do you want to discuss with me?"

"If I really get the Mystic, what kind of power will this Mystic have?"

While the phantoms and mysteries faded into shards of light, Dorothy fell into deep thought again:
"My sublimation language in Central, 'In the castle of night, only time can stop the blessed princess' is based on this story. In addition to calling the transforming princess, the effect of the sublimation language can also produce A barrier of time. That is, during the duration of the language of sublimation, the closer it is to my side, the slower the flow of time will be, until it touches my body, it will completely stop time."

This is not an offensive sublimation language, but it is definitely a perfect defense.

"Is time suspended?"

Xia De was thoughtful, while Dorothy reminded:

"This is just a way of thinking. You should pay attention to the fact that the most important thing in a fairy tale is not the content, but the connotation. For you, compassion, courage, sacrifice and wisdom constitute the first four mysteries. Compassion creates desire , to seal evil with courage, to exchange lives with sacrifice, and to learn from opponents with wisdom. Shade, in your opinion, what exactly does Cinderella/Gerry's glass slipper/princess on a pumpkin carriage represent? ?”

Xia De didn't answer, and Miss Writer gave a hint:

"Frugality, saving time? Humility, not being overly ostentatious? Hope, not being discouraged in the face of adversity? Or love, pursuing the whole kingdom for the love?"

Xia De shook his head slightly, none of this seemed to be his understanding.

Dorothy reassured:
"Since you haven't been able to tell this story in the past, you don't have to think about it so much now. It's better to learn from me, and when you really get the myth, you can save the process of understanding the story. I will find time this week and put that The complete copy of the story is given to you, and you can use it as a spell-casting material."

The first time Shade's mysteries are opened, the parchment on which the story is written needs to be burned.For subsequent openings, parchment paper can have a greater effect, and without it, the effect will be worse.

"Alright."

"In addition, maybe getting in touch with relevant artifacts can help you understand this story better. This is what I will learn next week, but Leiziya was too shy to ask me to tell you in advance. Let me tell you now——we will You have prepared a pair of crystal slippers."

Dorothy said with a smile, and Shade looked up at her in horror:
"Me? Crystal slipper? No, I definitely won't wear it! You can't say anything, even if the fan lock can't be learned, I will definitely not wear it!"

Under the light of the gas table lamp, the blonde girl smiled like a flower:

"Xia De, what are you thinking about? It's Leiziya's glass slipper, it was her birthday present when she was nine years old. Tsk, the treatment of the princess is really good."

"Nine?"

"Yes, so even she can't wear it anymore, let alone you? But, don't let me tell you how big Leiziya's feet are now."

"Don't I know?"

Xia De said curiously:
"The size of your feet and Rezia's feet, mine."

"Cough cough."

Miss Writer's face blushed instantly:

"I am your governess, Mr. Hamilton. What do you say?"

Although she was reprimanding Xia De, she herself had more expectations for the night after the class:

"Let's get back to the point. I only heard about this incident when I was exchanging with Leiziya and listening to her tell the story of the past. In fact, two weeks ago, I suggested that she take the shoe Take it out and use it as a learning tool for us, but she refuses anyway, she is really shy."

Girls' feet are the private organs second only to indescribable parts and indescribable parts, so taking out shoes, especially childhood shoes, is second only to taking out the fabric of indescribable parts as learning materials.

Xia De also laughed when he heard this.

　PS: Around five o'clock on the 30th.At least.
