The Whispering Verses Chapter 1019: Regent’s Park
I wanted to take advantage of the time in the evening to ask Dorothy about the exam questions, but the two of them had just spread out the books in front of the fireplace, and the hot badge on Shade's chest reminded him that the witch had arrived at his home. downstairs.
The ringing of the bell downstairs was slower than the heat of the badge, so Shade had time to look out of the living room window. The familiar carriage driving from the snowy city means that it is Miss Carina who is visiting this time, not Miss Sylvia.
"What's going on with the devil?"
The big witch acted vigorously and fiercely, and she asked immediately as soon as Shade opened the door downstairs. Behind the Duchess was the deep winter night. Tifa in the night had just stepped out of the carriage and gave Shade a concerned look.
"Oh, Miss Carina, how did you know about this?"
Xia De asked curiously, then turned sideways to let the witch and her party in.
The Duchess was very aggressive. After entering the door, she took off her fox fur shawl to keep out the cold and handed it to Tifa:
"I just came back from Sylvia. She told me about Margaret Anjou's encounter with the devil. The princess did not mention who she encountered this incident with, but we can guess I just know that this matter must be related to you. If a young girl like Margaret Anjou doesn’t know how terrifying the evil spirits of the Third Age are, how can we not know what’s going on?”
The concern in his tone was beyond words.
"Let's talk upstairs, but don't worry, the other party is not a very scary demon. I have found a way to deal with it."
Miss Carina probably came in a hurry, and there were only two maids accompanying her except Tifa. They went to the kitchen and prepared tea with Dorothy. Although Lesia hated her aunt a little, Dorothy's attitude towards the duchess was barely neutral and she had no special thoughts.
"Xia De, do you understand what you are encountering?"
After she sat down on the sofa, her tone was still so stern, which made Mia, who was lying in front of the fireplace, squirm and look here, as if she was worried that Shade would be bullied.
"I've seen Darkness and Human Pussy, how could I not know what the devil represents?"
Xia De said, taking off the badge that was constantly burning on his chest and handing it to her:
"After the human pus incident, I met a very powerful friend who can help me expel demons. Look at this, I bought this from him for self-defense."
The "Witch Detection Badge" was originally made by Miss Carina for Shade, so she easily noticed the white bone border on the side of the badge. When Father Augustus used angel bones to make the bone medallion, he considered the issue of concealment, so generally no one could tell what the function of that layer of bones was.
Even after the witch checked it, she couldn't find out what it was. It wasn't until she took out a small bottle of black sludge-like substance and dripped it on the badge that the black flames ignited made her frown relax:
"What kind of magical material is this magical item made of? It seems that you really know the incredible alchemist master."
"Miss Carina, please don't worry about the devil. I will take care of it in a week at most, so you don't have to worry about me."
Shad said again, then hesitated and grabbed the duchess's hand.
The expression on the red-haired witch's face immediately relaxed, and she turned to look out the window with a very rare blush. Tifa, who was standing behind the sofa, winked at Shade with her left eye, which was a sign of encouragement.
"If you think you can handle it, I won't say much, but you must be careful when dealing with things related to demons. The evil spirits of the Third Age are immortal and can even hide directly in people's hearts."
"I have a lot of holy water at home. When the problem is solved, I will take a bath with holy water."
Xia De said again, and then changed the topic:
"Besides the demon thing, I also know another thing. Yesterday I met the people from the Apuna Library at the Three Cats Hotel. I overheard their relationship with the Truth Society and the Pantanal. The conversations of the Voodoo Society and the fragments of poems they sell are actually all incomplete. The location required for the chosen ceremony is not the water, but the 'island in the water'."
"The church's patience with [Apna Library] is probably running out."
Miss Carina sighed, Shade did not say that "Sir Prisha is the chosen one", after all, Luvia has not yet decided how to deal with the fourth chosen person.
"However, Pantanal Voodoo will..."
She thought about it:
"Sister Devlin is investigating the Everglades area recently, and the council has collected a lot of information to help her. I can't think of a reason why the Voodoo Society is involved in the Chosen One's affairs. I hope they are just hired. The thug."
The maids brought tea, and Dorothy went directly into the study without any intention of talking to Miss Carina. The duchess talked to Shade for a while. After finishing the first cup of tea, she glanced at the clock in the corner of the living room:
"I have other things to do tonight, so go out with me now and I'll be back in about two hours."
"No problem, but what are we going to do? Do I need to prepare additional weapons and casting materials?"
Miss Carina thought for a while:
"There shouldn't be any danger, Sylvia is going with us. The council found information about the suspected 'Secret Keeper', let's try our luck. You can carry weapons, but in my opinion, That's unnecessary."
"A new secret keeper? Let's go now."
Considering that the devil was still spying on him and Dorothy, Shade did not carry the [Night Watcher], but left the sword with the girl and cat at home.
He prepared other relics and boarded the duchess's carriage in the night. The carriage drove a group of people to the east of the city.
In the planning of the capital city Tobesk, the east and south of the city are wealthy areas, but most of the nobles live in the south, while decent middle class people like Dr. Schneider are concentrated in the east.
The sun sets very early in winter, and the temperature has already dropped below freezing, which makes people avoid staying on the streets at night as much as possible. The nominal center of the eastern part of the city is the local Natural Church. The carriage carrying everyone did not pass there, but Shade could see a few streets away in the night, the magnificent side tower of the Natural Church, and the image of the natural church in the faint moonlight. It's on top of the shining church tower.
Two streets west of the Natural Church is Tobesk's very famous Regent's Park. This park was established in memory of the Regent John about 200 years ago. It is the largest park in Tobesk city. The establishment and maintenance of this park are also related to the natural church.
Tonight’s goal is this park.
The carriage passed quietly across the bridge across the Nington River. When it stopped at the bridge, Miss Sylvia, wearing a black dress, was waiting for them in the shadows that were not illuminated by the street lights.
Not far from the Witch is the Ninton River. This river is incomparable with the Terrariel River to the west of Yodel Palace. It is just a decorative river with a small flow in the city.
Due to the heavy snowfall in the past few days, the river was frozen and snowflakes covered the ice. On the riverside at night, the witch, who looked like a beautiful woman in a landscape painting, was staring at the river. After the carriage stopped, she turned around and walked to the elegant gas lamp at the end of the bridge.
"Xia De will handle the devil's matters himself."
The Duchess said simply, and then ordered Tifa:
"You are waiting for us in the carriage with Julia and Anne."
"Okay, miss."
Tifa, who was about to get off the carriage, shrank back again. After handing a heavy cloth bag to Shade, the silent coachman drove them away.
"What were you looking at just now?"
Miss Carina asked Miss Sylvia, and also looked at the river under the sparse starlight:
"The river here doesn't stink. It seems that the Church of Nature has done something."
"I'm calculating the snowfall in Tobesk."
Miss Sylvia said simply and smiled at Shade:
"If my digital divination is correct, the snowfall in Tobesk this winter will far exceed the level of previous years... Shade, do you really not need our help with the devil's matter?"
"No need, I can handle it myself."
"I really like the snowy weather. Stop chatting here and go this way."
The Duchess said softly. She led the way, walked off the bridge, turned to the left, and arrived at the gate of Regent's Park.
Regent's Park was originally a private garden of the royal family. It was opened to the public since Lesia's great-grandfather, and later hosted the Delrayon-Kasenlik Industrial Expo. Every summer, a grand seatless concert is held here. The Regent Lake in the center of the park is a good place for a walk after dinner.
Roentgen Avenue, where Dr. Schneider's clinic is located, is a 10-minute walk away. The doctor often walks here when he has nothing to do.
Of course, there is no one in Regent's Park on a winter night. Because some people illegally stored steam engine parts in the park a few years ago, which triggered a joint protest from nearby residents, the land and opening hours of Regent's Park were strictly restricted by the city hall.
Entry is not allowed in the park at this time, but for Shade and the two witches, this is not a problem at all.
Walk along the gravel path inward, stepping on the snow on the ground through the sparse coniferous forest. After walking down the downward slope, not far away is Regent Lake in the darkness.
The area of this small lake is only a quarter of the size of Saint Teresa Square. It is an artificial lake dug manually and connected to the Nington River.
"This is it."
Miss Carina said softly, and the two witches walked beside Shade, one on the left and one on the right. Shade was holding the canvas bag and looking at the lake by the moonlight.
"I feel no trace of the elements."
Xia De whispered softly, his nose smelling two perfumes at the same time. Although these are both unique perfumes called "Witch's Smell", they actually taste different.
Probably noticing Shade's subtle movement of twitching his nose, Miss Sylvia's face turned slightly red, but she raised a smile and said nothing.
"Yes, I looked through the files of Ridwich Field before this. In recent months, the only strange rumors that have come out here are young men and women who come in for a tryst at night and hear that there is someone in the lake. Singing."
Miss Carina said, looking at Miss Sylvia, the witch with short black shawl hair took a moment and nodded:
"We need a special way to summon the secret keeper, but before that we need to do something else."
