Whispering Poems

Chapter 3260 Long-haired Luvia and Destiny
The waiting process was very boring, especially since Shad was underwater in dim light and couldn't even make eye contact with other people.

He "sat" in the water with his eyes open, looking around. The dim environment easily made chaotic thoughts surge up. Although the remaining light of his own embers slightly illuminated the surroundings, such a subtle light in the silence made it easier for people to have wild thoughts:
"Miss Mia and Miss Reinhardt have very similar temperaments. I wonder if Miss Larson was abducted from the Far North by her after she drank the Cat in the Bottle potion. Miss Larson can't be the cousin of Miss Elsa Asperger, right?"

In order to prevent himself from thinking too much, Xia De simply closed his eyes and waited quietly for the purification to end.

“It’s really slow.”

After closing my eyes, my hearing became more sensitive. At first, I could only hear the very slight gurgling sound of the spring water, but as time went on, other sounds also came into my ears.

Xia De didn't know if the noises were hallucinations or illusions. He pretended nothing had happened, and waited with his eyes closed, ignoring the "distractions" that were getting louder and louder. But even though he imagined the scene of Mia running in his mind to make time pass faster, and it would be best if he could jump to the next plot like the dividing line in a knight's novel, the sounds that did not belong to the spring became clearer and clearer, until Xia De actually heard a complete and understandable sentence:
"Ms. Anat, do you really want to come in here?"

"what?"

Surprised, Shade immediately opened his eyes, and the noise disappeared immediately. He looked around and closed his eyes again, and the sound reappeared.

Although he could still see the khaki aura and the rope around his waist with his eyes open, he could no longer feel the effect of the Holy Grail or the rope around his waist when he closed his eyes and let go of his senses.

He kept his eyes closed and looked up. A bright light appeared above the spring. There was indeed only Xia De in the spring, but he clearly saw two people standing outside the spring.

"Of course we have to go into the water. Isn't this why we came here? Oh, Claire, you still don't trust me, do you? Oh, don't forget, I'm the only one who can cure your grandfather's injury - you don't want Elder Harald to really turn into a magic sword, do you?"

The tone of voice was obviously not that of the "Annat" that Shad knew. After he opened his eyes, the voice disappeared again. There was no one near the spring. Miss Reinhardt and Miss Larson were standing farther away.

"What's going on?"

He couldn't figure it all out, so he closed his eyes again and continued to listen to the conversation that did not belong to this time and space.

"No, please save him. I trust you. Please be careful. I don't know how deep this spring is. Please be careful when you dive."

It sounds like they are not here to purify the pollution.

"So you Fatu people have lived here since the last era, and you have never thought that there is something deep in this spring?"

This time it was Luvia's voice again. Although the voice was a little distorted due to the water, Shad was sure that he had heard it correctly.

"Ms. Annat, we don't have the divination skills like you. Besides, we have no intention of changing anything on the Holy Mountain. We respect this place."

Although he couldn't see the scene at the spring, Shade could fully imagine the mocking expression on the face of the long-haired Luvia:

"You have both the conservatism of the Fatu people and the arrogance of the witches. This makes you look even cuter than my cat."

"Oh please don't touch my face!"

Shade heard the tone of grief and anger, and then Luvia's laughter. Adele considered her a villain with long hair, which made sense:

"Tsk tsk, it's becoming more and more like a cat. Well, I won't say any more. I'll go get that thing now. [The Puppet Master's Script], [The Prophecy Spinning Wheel], and [The Kaleidoscope of the Forked Path] are currently in a battle of fate. Since none of the three relics and the manipulators can control the main line of fate, we still have time to make some other arrangements. The key to entering the game is not to stir up fate, but to understand one's own identity.

Why don't they understand that manipulating fate is equivalent to falling into fate's trap. They thought they were the directors of this story, but from the moment they took the initiative to interfere, they had already become one of the actors on the stage. Angel-level relics are not the strongest. Perhaps there are others who hold the unknowable [Fate Pedestal], [Book of Years], and [Eyes of Ouroboros] who are arranging their fate at a higher narrative level. "

The purple eyes were probably staring at the water surface while speaking, because when Xia De looked up, he could almost see the purple.

"Miss Anat, aren't we actors in the complicated story on this island right now? You said before that this island is the stage."

This was Miss Rhinehart's voice, spoken very cautiously, as if she was afraid of angering the other person she was speaking to.

Long-haired Luvia sighed softly, and spoke after a few seconds:
"You are indeed an actor. After all, you were born here. When you, as the most gifted Fatu priest, received the letter in a dramatic way, you had already entered the game as a 'role'. But before I do anything, I am just an 'audience' who appreciates this grand performance. For this drama, this identity is the best.

The players outside the chessboard are just part of the game. The people standing next to the chessboard are the ones who can truly understand everything. "

With his eyes closed in the water, Xia De felt that he was listening to something extraordinary. He hoped that the conversation could go on in depth, and it would be best if they could directly discuss who the candidates for the Chosen One are and what the ceremony for the Chosen One is.

Unfortunately, the topic did not continue, but fortunately, the voice did not disappear:

"Claire, Claire, you should be thankful that the intensity of the battle in the story of fate is not great, and I need the local forces of the Fatu people and the All Souls' Day of 1859 to be held normally, otherwise I would not be here to tell you these things calmly. Obey me, and I will give you the reward you deserve."

Miss Rhinehart spoke with obvious fear:

"I know what you did before."

"Then you should understand what my promise means. Our ally, the Thirteenth Ring 'Crazy Nun' Defulin, will soon return from the New World. When she does, we'll watch her melt the entire snow mountain."

"What are you going to do! This holy mountain"

"There are many secrets hidden here. If the snow doesn't melt, some things will never be clear. Just like what's hidden in this cold spring."

"You, you desecrated the holy mountain, and everyone else on this island will die because of it - you will be punished!"

The long-haired girl smiled:

“I have suffered enough retribution. You don’t know the stories I have experienced, but I believe that everything I have done is right, even if I have become the bad guy Claire Reinhart in your eyes. If fate is really fair, then after I finally get rid of the heavy responsibility, you can share the treasures I have. Will you be satisfied?

I don’t need people’s thanks, knowing it is enough for me.”

Listening to these words, Shade felt very complicated. He was not lamenting that fate had come true, but lamenting that long-haired Luvia had come such a long way to meet him. He wanted to hug the girl right now. Although people in the past, including Adele, thought that Luvia was a bad person, or at least not a good person, Shade still loved the long-haired girl.

He had not experienced right or wrong, he just knew that he was here because of her:

"Destiny, Luvia, since you know that the snowy mountains are the stage of destiny, how can you say such things under this stage?"

"Ms. Annat, let me confirm one last time. Taking away the thing underwater will not affect this spring, right?"

Miss Reinhart's voice sounded again, and the long-haired girl was obviously a little impatient:
"No, the piece of skin at the bottom of the spring just came here by chance along the cracks in the mountain. You Fatu people have no idea what this snowy mountain means. The source of the spring is more complicated than you think, but I'll tell you everything when I come back.

Reinhardt, you are really useless. If you can have the power of the twelfth level, why do you need me to go in person? 'Thunderbolt of Punishment' Iluna Beyath is much younger than you, and now she has reached the thirteenth ring. "

The long-haired girl obviously didn't intend to take off her clothes and then jump down. After all, she just wanted to dive to the bottom, and there was no need for her to touch the spring and then cast a spell like Shade did.

At this moment, Shad still had his eyes closed and his head raised, so he "saw" the blurry image of a long-haired figure entering the water. The blurry image confirmed that he had not "illegally" traveled through time like he had done in the Randall River Valley. The current situation was that the past and the present intersected here for some reason, allowing him to "see" the disappeared time and space.

But Xia De only saw a remnant of the past, but after the blurry long-haired figure entered the water, Xia De clearly saw that figure suddenly look down. Then, the purple eyes directly met his closed eyes as if across time and space -

"Who's there! Adele, you're spying on me again!"

After an angry rebuke, from a distance of five meters, long-haired Luvia raised her right hand like a knife and slashed downwards:
"Magic - Destruction of Space and Time - Moonlight Slash!"

It was not the silver, red, or yellow moonlight, but the moonlight made of the deepest black that struck towards Shade's raised head. Even though he had never seen it before, Shade still knew that it was the last ray of moonlight before the end:
"You don't have to be so cruel every time - Night Seal!"
