Whispering Poems

Chapter 1913

"Iluna, take this again."

Xia De also handed [Night Watchman] to Iluna:
"This sword can enhance the effect of thaumaturgy. Although the church has similar relics, there should be no better sword than mine in a short time. As for how it got into your hands, you can say that it was a witch The Council paid the price and borrowed it from the God Caller. Afterwards, the church must compensate the Witch Council to repay the price paid by the Council to the God Caller."

Xia De, who was wearing pajamas, said, and put the sword into Iluna's hand:
"Go ahead and let them see that although the chosen ones of balance don't have high levels of ring magicians like Death and Earth, in the eyes of Luvia and me, you are the real protagonist of this era."

He yawned again, and at the same time the cat at his feet opened its mouth and yawned, but when Shad looked down at it, the cat shut its mouth again.

"Shad."

Iluna pursed her lips and looked at him:
"But such a useful alchemy item, save it until Wednesday"

"I have my own plans for Wednesday."

Besides, the priest will go to the island himself for the remaining one-sixth of the skull.

"OK then."

She looked at the sleepy man in pajamas in front of her:
"Um"

I wanted to say something, but I couldn't get it out of my mouth.I want to say goodbye and leave to solve the matter over there, but I feel that it would be rash to leave like this.

"What's the matter? Do you want me to go with you? Then I have to change my clothes."

"No, no, with this, I can do it myself."

I wanted to say thank you, but it felt alienating.Iluna always thought that she was an eloquent person, but only now did she realize that it was just her own illusion.

The girl who worries about gains and losses is a little annoyed by her "stupidity". This should be a good opportunity to strengthen the relationship.Then somehow, she said something that made herself want to punch herself through time afterwards:
"This aura, just treat it as a birthday present for me."

Until many, many years later, Iluna Emilia Bayas still didn't know why she said those words.

In the next instant, he realized what he had just said, his face flushed red, he lowered his head and wished he could turn into an ant and disappear.

As expected, Xia De looked at her in surprise:
"How can this work? The birthday present is for you on your birthday, and I have already prepared it."

As he spoke, he turned sideways calmly, blocking the black scales, golden apples and the bouquet of flowers that were shining brightly beside him.

Iluna blushed, opened her mouth and really didn't know what to say this time.Xia De saw her embarrassment:
"Then good luck to you."

Blinking, Xia De hesitated, but still kissed her on the forehead:
"Early in the morning, it was really hard work."

Iluna suppressed her heart that was about to jump out of her chest;

"I'll go first. You should go to the Green Lake Hotel for breakfast later, and you should be able to hear my good news."

Saying this, he waved his hand at Xia De, and after turning around, he touched the statue and left as if fleeing.

"Iluna was really weird just now, is it because she didn't sleep well?"

Xia De muttered to himself, then bent down to pick up Little Mia:
"Do you want to go back to sleep?"

"Meow~"

Mia, who was still sleepy just now, has become active again at this time, and it seems that she does not need to continue to rest.Xia De wondered at first how the cat woke up so quickly. When he stepped on the slippers and went up the stairs, he guessed belatedly that it probably understood the "breakfast" that Iluna said.

Although he woke up earlier than usual, Xia De did not go back to sleep.Taking advantage of nothing to do in the early morning, he went to the basement to sort out the relics he kept after washing up, and decided what to bring on Wednesday.This is not an easy task, because Xia De now has more and more relics.

When the milkman delivering goat milk arrived outside the door, the cat that had been waiting in the hall immediately ran into the basement, meowing and meowing to remind Xia De.After Shade opened the door, looking at the rainy city of Tobesk, he muttered naturally:
"It sure is still raining."

Then it suddenly dawned on me that this is not Green Lake City. Tobesk has always been sunny and smoky in the city a few days ago. The newspaper even said that the precipitation in the Tobesk area this spring was significantly less than in previous years.

"The sky is normal, the rift has not spread here yet."

Xia De looked up at the sky again, used the key to open the milk box hanging on the side of the door and took out two bottles of goat milk.After putting them on the shoe cabinet, I put the two empty glass bottles that I forgot to put in yesterday into the milk box.

He didn't go back immediately, but stood on the steps of the door and looked at the Saint Teresa Square in the morning rain.Although it was still early, the morning wind was not cool at all.Suddenly, I realized that the month of praying for rain has reached the second half of the month, and spring is coming to an end.

And after running around in Green Lake City for two months, he was not even able to take a good look at the spring in Tobesk City after the Ring Riding Competition:

"Time flies so fast, it will be a year in a blink of an eye."

The rain was not too heavy, so he walked out of the door directly, looked up at his house at the door, thinking in his heart that when he first took over the place last year, the house was almost abandoned.Not only can every room be used now, but he has also explored the reasons why the house has killed one owner after another in the past. Even, the house has now found a mistress.

[Plurals are used here. 】

"My grammar is not very good, you know, I'm a foreigner."

Shade answered with a smile in his heart, and then remembered that Mr. Euclid, who left the [Source of Chaos] and the letter, besides mentioning the Chosen One of the Moon, also mentioned the place where he lived here. Considerable danger was perceived in those three months (Chapter 1088).Among them, the "sigh of the dead" is clearly the boundary between life and death on the third floor, but he still doesn't know what the "sound of the dice beating" and the "beeping sound of the flame" are.

"The stargazer seems to have very good hearing, and all he observes are sounds."

Xia De looked at his house and thought in his heart, while Mia poked her head out of the door to look at Xia De, wondering why Xia De didn't come back to prepare breakfast.

The courier wearing a rain cape drove the post office carriage and had already driven into the Saint Teresa Square.Seeing that the door was open on No. [-], he came to the door of No. [-] first:

"Good morning, Mr. Hamilton, here is your newspaper. Go back quickly, and be careful of catching a cold. The spring flu is prevalent in the city recently."

The middle-aged courier with a big nose said, Xia De also nodded with a smile, seeing the front page of the preserved very dry newspaper, still reporting on the large-scale military mobilization in the Green Lake area.

He shook his head. At this moment, the door of the neighbor's room opened.The resident of No. [-] is a researcher of the Steam Machinery Equipment Research Institute of the Royal Army. He is not at home all year round. Therefore, the neighbor of No. [-] on the other side, Mr. Smith, opened the door.

"Oh, Mr. Hamilton, you woke up so early, too?"

"Yes, woken up by my cat, who always reminds me to get up on time."

Xia De was standing under the rain eaves in front of his house and talking. As for the gray-haired Mr. Smith, he wore a red button-down sweater on his upper body in addition to his plaid pajamas. Elderly people really need to pay attention to the early morning temperature on rainy days.

Now that we met, Mr. Smith also stood under the eaves of his house and chatted with Shad who was also wearing slippers.

The topic of conversation was naturally the Green Lake area in the newspaper in his hand. The kingdom's former chief secretary of the Ministry of Finance was worried about the future of the two countries.Even though he knew that MI[-] and Gray Gloves were not responsible for the assassination of Miss Galina and Princess Margaret, he still believed that the hasty termination of the Green Lake negotiations would most likely lead to further deterioration of the relationship between the two countries.

"Oh, Mr. Hamilton, don't worry too much."

At the end of the chat, old Mr. Smith comforted, and Xia De was stunned for a moment before he understood:

"I have already received an urgent letter sent by Miss Galina by steam train. She said that she was just frightened and not injured. She will be back soon. I wish her health."

The worried old man nodded, not in the mood to tease his young neighbor about his affair with the princess of the kingdom.

When Xia De brought Mia, newspaper, and two bottles of goat milk to the Green Lake Hotel, it was still pouring rain outside.

He met Little John who lived here temporarily in the back kitchen. The boy is now working in the back kitchen, so he has new clothes after taking a bath, and the puppy is kept in the backyard of the hotel.When seeing Xia De, the boy greeted him timidly, and thanked him loudly when Xia De was about to leave.

But this is not what Xia De is concerned about. He met Priest Augustus and Dr. Schneider who came down to have breakfast on the first floor, and only then heard that the matter in the city had been resolved.

"Detective, you really missed the excitement. At three o'clock this morning, there was a colorful glow in the northwest. I woke up with a start and almost thought I was still dreaming."

Dr. Schneider said to Shad.

The fusion of space mentioned by Iluna, under the fierce collision of spirit and elements, forms an optical phenomenon that ordinary people can see with naked eyes.This in itself is an extremely dangerous signal, which means that the abnormal phenomena in the world can be easily observed by ordinary people, which means that the space mutation has reached the level that must be resolved immediately.

Today is Tuesday, less than 40 hours until the Edwards dinner, and Shade still has a lot to do.During breakfast, I talked with Priest Augustus and Dr. Schneider about our plans after landing on the island on Wednesday.And after breakfast, he greeted the witches who came to the Green Lake Hotel to continue discussing tomorrow's plans, and went out in the rain again:
"What are you going to do?"

Miss Galina grabbed Shade's sleeve:
"We are all here, who else do you want to go to? Didn't Anat say that she will be there in a while?"

"I'm going to see Miss Dennist."
