Chapter 1137 Second Road Sign
Chapter 1137 The Fifth Road Sign
Putting down the roll of heavy parchment, Xia De found the ice crystal pendant from among the pile of toys and pendants in the bedside table.
Xia De looked at the pendant in a daze, and after holding it in the palm of his hand, he thought of Miss Chloe's appearance.
Of course he knew exactly what kind of feelings that silver-haired, red-eyed witch had for him when she said goodbye, but Miss Chloe was also the witch who was the longest away from the time when the stranger lived.
After sighing slightly, he placed the ice crystal pendant next to the three slightly shining stone slabs.After stroking the slate with his fingers, he hugged the cat and went to find Tifa with 【Ikenora-Arrow of the Chosen One】.
It was already dark at this time, and from the corridor of the manor, one could see the fine snow falling and dancing under the moon.
During the period when Miss Galina was "on bed rest", all affairs in the manor were handled by Tifa and the secretary team.When Xia De saw Tifa, she had just finished arranging tomorrow's schedule in the study.
Seeing Xia De enter the door, Tifa asked Miss Galina's personal maids to leave temporarily.The young girls greeted Xia De with a smile, and then whispered rumors about the relationship between Xia De and the head maid.
After the door was closed, Xia De gestured with the arrow:
"Tifa, do you need new powers?"
He briefly explained the current function of this arrow, and attributed this new function to the blessing given by Miss Fei Lianna.
Although Miss Galina was away, Tifa did not sit at the main seat behind the desk, but placed another chair next to the elegant velvet-backed chair:
"No one will refuse new power."
she said with a smile.
"Then I'll stab you, please roll up your sleeves."
Xia De waved the arrow to signal, the maid thought for a while, unbuttoned her chest and looked at Xia De, then pointed to the velvet seat, which is the seat of Miss Galina, and signaled Xia De De sat down:
"However, Xia De, can you remove the soaked blood stains for me?"
Xiao Ya was placed on the desk by Shade, and it looked curiously at the two people in the room.Shad pursed his lips slightly, and Tifa looked at him with a flushed expression:
"In order to come back before the end of the year, Speaker Isabella, in order to reward the young lady for her contribution this time, will ask Miss Sylvia to cooperate with the power of the parliament to open a channel for the young lady to come back directly, which cannot be used often. She'll be back by this time tomorrow, Sunday night."
As he said that, he looked at Xia De with his dark brown eyes:
"Knight, the maid of the Duke can only do it when the master is away"
Shad took a seat on the velvet armchair, Tifa opened the left front, the brass-colored arrow that carried the warmth of Shad's palm pierced into Nai's white skin. come out.
Shad took away the arrow, and at the same time that the life ring automatically appeared behind Tifa, she hugged Shad's head again.Now that the Duke is away, the maid also wants to relax for a while.
In short, Tifa did not get thaumaturgy, but a brand new enlightenment rune [Pain].All the spiritual runes of the sixth ring are complete, and she can hold a ceremony to be promoted to the seventh ring.
"Meow~"
The cat stared at the life ring, and then worried that Shad would be suffocated to death.
It was actually the right thing for Luvia to let Xia De stay in Miss Galina's manor to rest, because Xia De had not yet fully recovered.It was an indescribable feeling, as if ordinary people didn't get enough sleep.
But in view of the superposition of "coma after divinity overflow" and "weakness after forcibly using sublimation language", the state at this time is normal.
Before eight o'clock in the evening, Xia De went back to the bedroom to rest.The maids prepared desserts and hot tea for him, and the gas lamp in the bedroom and the gas lamp in the shape of a little angel by the bed were also bright.
Mia was lying next to the pillow and was touched by Shad from time to time, while Shad read the roll of parchment carefully, wanting to choose some interesting thaumaturgy and spells to learn.
The atmosphere at night was very peaceful, and Xia De felt that as long as he had a good rest, he would probably be able to return to normal tomorrow.He still has a lot of things to do in his hands, the perfume vial of desire, the ritual to enhance time perception, the dream ceremony prepared for him by Dr. Schneider, and Miss Denist's black book without words.
I thought in my heart that I was always busy, but I decided to finish these things and enjoy the New Year's Eve starting next Tuesday.He even wanted to postpone the use of the next key, so that he could take a good rest in the first half of the next early 1854.
Just as I was thinking in my heart, there was a knock on the bedroom door, and then the door was opened.Xia De heard the sound of small square-heel leather shoes stepping on the floor. This is the standard attire of the maids in the manor, and they usually wear uniform white cotton socks in the shoes.It is said that in the palace of Duke Galina in Saladir County, the maids are all dressed like this.
Xia De knew that it was the maids who came to buy tea again, so he didn't pay attention, but soon the sound of footsteps came to the bed, and a familiar voice asked softly:
"Mr. Hamilton, Miss Servet asked me to come and sleep with you tonight."
"No no, I don't need"
Curious about how Tifa would arrange such a thing, she was about to put down the parchment in her hand, but unexpectedly, her white hand took the roll of parchment away, and then the girl in maid outfit bent down and kissed Xia Germany.
Xia De's eyes widened, and after pushing her away, he realized that it was actually Luvia.However, at this time, Luvia was wearing a black and white maid dress, and even her brown shawl hair was arranged so that the maids could move easily.
She clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and asked Xia De with a smile:
"Mr. Hamilton, should I stay?"
As he spoke, he lifted his right leg, which was wearing white stockings, and put it on the bed, and then lifted the other leg up.She knelt on the bed and looked down at Xia De. Xia De heard the rhythmic sound of two small black leather shoes falling to the bedside carpet one by one.
"Well, where did this dress come from?"
"I borrowed it from Tifa, but unfortunately I can't wear her clothes. We are about the same height, but... fortunately, this kind of clothes is the most indispensable thing here. The other maids helped me find this one. I have to admit, The dress is more intricate and beautiful than I thought."
Luvia blushed slightly:
"However, I heard some rumors from other maids in the manor. Did you have a good afternoon, Mr. Knight?"
There is no secret where the girls gather, and no matter how well Tifa and Shad try to hide it, it is impossible to keep it completely secret.Xia De didn't know how to answer, so the girl with purple eyes said solemnly:
"Mr. Hamilton, this is a kind offer from Miss Servet, please don't refuse."
"Well then, I do need a maid to accompany me to sleep."
Saying such words made Xia De very embarrassed, and the outsider scolded himself for becoming such a person in his heart.
Thus, the "maid" Miss Luvia Anat kissed Shade in a slightly "clumsy" way.This night will probably be very interesting. Miya, who was woken up, probably doesn't think so.
Early on Sunday morning, Shad, who felt that he had almost recovered, went into the city with Luvia and Tifa, who happened to be going to the Yodle Palace on business, after having breakfast.
First send Luvia to the Prophet Association, then bid farewell to Tifa, and agree to see you tomorrow afternoon.After returning to his long-lost home, Xia De stored all the relics and special items he carried with him.Then "trapped" the tantrum cat with four rings, and allowed it to carry four rings with its tail at one time, and then went from the basement to the center island of the lake in the center of the Great Swamp alone.
The appearance of Miya walking around the house with four rings jingling is really interesting.
When returning home in the early hours of Thursday, Sister Davelyn helped Shade touch the statue of the ancient god under the lighthouse on Huxin Island, so on his [Space Labyrinth] path, in the "Tobesque-San Teresa Square" In addition to Coldwater Harbor - Underwater Cliff", "Fort Midhill - Abandoned Tower in the Mountain", and "Huntington - White River Valley Vineyard", there is a fifth road sign "Pantanal Swamp - Lake Island Lighthouse" .
The hidden space under the lighthouse was the same size and shape as the other five, except that there was a stone gray bookcase, but there was nothing on it.
Xia De showed his life ring and opened the exit passage, and the outside was the basement of the lighthouse.Unlike the basement of the Sical Mountain, not even the stairs, the basement of this old lighthouse is still in use, where the Pantanal voodoo used to store tools for repairing lamps and spare fuel.
Following the steps to the first floor of the lighthouse, Xia De suddenly saw the light outside the lighthouse door from the darkness, causing Xia De to squint his eyes and raise his arm.
And in that light, with her back to him, a gray-haired lady in a gray nun's gown, with her hair braided and plaited behind her, with a silver eyepatch on her face, and a gray waistcoat on her shoulders, turned around, Smiling and bowing slightly to him.
At this time, the light around the nun showed the scenery outside the lighthouse, illuminated by the mild winter sun.Xia De froze for a moment, then smiled and waved and walked over:
"Good morning, Sister Diveline!"
Now the entire island in the middle of the lake is affected by the curse of the evil Pantanal, so the church did not set up a camp on the island in the middle of the lake, the camps were outside the lake.And the only ones who can go to the island to check the situation are the thirteen-ring warlocks and a few twelve-ring warlocks from the Church of Nature and the Church of the Sun.
Therefore, with Sister Devlin accompanying her, Xia De didn't have to worry about being discovered by the church.And Xia De also told the nun that the purpose of his trip was to meet a level 0 relic.
The nun had heard the legend of [Desire], and after careful consideration, she decided to follow Xia De to meet him.
