The Whispering Verses Chapter 1435: Devil’s Deal
Chapter 1435 The Devil’s Deal
If the decisive battle was not about to come, Shade would be willing to take Luvia here to see the scenery, and even sit around the lights at night to talk about plans for future life and their respective life ideals.
【Do you really just want to talk about life ideals with her here? 】
"Oh, don't disturb my thoughts with this kind of thing when I am sighing."
Xia De complained softly in his heart, and then prepared to leave. He had to prepare for his visit to Oxenfurt Manor on Friday night, and maybe once he had dealt with the demon, the Chosen One ceremony would begin.
[Someone is coming. 】
"She" suddenly said in Shade's ear. Shade listened intently to the voice, but heard nothing.
[Not a human being, but the traces of elements on his body are obvious, so he is not a stranger. 】
"Where is the other party?"
[You don’t have to move, she’s coming. 】
As he spoke, black smoke composed of a swarm of mosquitoes flew up from the hole where a ladder was set up. The black smoke, on the top floor of the watchtower, formed the expressionless face of Mrs. Ocean Osenfurt's maid in an old-fashioned yellowed maid dress.
Shad and Dr. Schneider discussed the old housekeeper and maid of Oxenfurt Manor. The doctor believed that they were both lower-level demons and were used by the Stone Mirror Demon to monitor the activities of the manor. The "lower-level demons" here refer to the alien demons themselves, not the ancient Third Age evil spirits.
"Well hello."
Xia De raised his eyebrows in surprise:
"Is it the Oxenfurt faction? Miminato Haruka? Or the devil behind you sent you to find me. It can't be the Ocean Furt, can it send you?"
He couldn't understand the reason why he met the other party here.
"Master Oxenfurt sent me to inform you of the time to visit the manor on Friday night, no later than 7:30 pm.
Xia De frowned slightly:
"Is he so worried that I will break my promise? Don't worry, I will be there on time."
"In addition, I also have something to come to you for."
The maid put her hands together in front of her body. This is a very common action for Tifa. It looks natural and elegant when Tifa does it, but when the maid in front of you does it, it looks strange no matter how you look at it:
"To be precise, the housekeeper and I decided to come to you before Friday."
"You? What's going on?"
Xia De put one hand on the fence and asked casually.
"We hope that you can liberate us."
She remained expressionless.
"What do you mean?"
"We are no one's subordinates. The devil who must not be named, induced Stone Oxenfurt to call us with rituals and bind us to watch over his estate and his wife for him. We are tired of it. This work, so I hope you can liberate us."
Although people often say that you can’t just believe in demons, this incident actually sounds like it is true:
"It sounds funny that demons can actually be restrained by humans."
"You should understand that sometimes, humans are scarier than demons."
Xia De agrees with this last sentence:
"So, you took advantage of this opportunity to meet me and tell me about this? It's hard for me to believe you, but I'm curious. What do you want me to do? Kill Oxenfurt?"
"No, the **** will not be released so easily. You have to let him admit with his own mouth that we are free."
This doesn’t sound very difficult, and Shade immediately thought of many ways:
"To be honest, I have no grudges against you. If what you say is true, I also sympathize with you. But why should I do this? You are also demons, maybe not as old as that guy, nor as old as that guy. That guy is so evil, but he is still a devil."
Shad placed his hands on the fence and looked at the sunset with his back to the maid behind him. He wasn't worried about being attacked on his back. "She" kept looking at Shade's back.
"I understand that redemption of freedom requires payment, which is fair.
Due to the constraints of the contract, we cannot give you important information about the evil existence and Stone Oxenfurt, but there is some things we can say - Stone Oxenfurt is taken back from you. He got the ring, the medal and the sapphire earrings, which were part of his contract with the ancient evil being. By getting these three items that he could never find, he could, to a certain extent, get rid of the shackles of the evil being and obtain More power. ”
Ston Oxenfurt really wanted to rebel against Goethe.
Shad nodded, so the maid continued to speak in the wind at the top of the tower. "She" reminded Shad that the maid did not open her mouth at all:
"The true content of Stone Oxenfurt's contract with evil existence lies in a heart. If you want to completely eliminate Oxenfurt, you must pay attention to your heart."
Xia De frowned slightly, this is indeed quite useful information. At least, it can provide him with next steps when he encounters difficulties:
"Is that all?"
The maid nodded slightly:
"When we are free, we will be able to give you more information."
"Well, I can't promise to do anything, but I can promise you that if there is a chance, I can try to get Stone Oxenfurt to open his mouth and give you your freedom. Although I will not sign anything with you Contract, but this is my promise, I am a very honest person."
As Shade said, he turned around and stretched out his hand. The maid hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand and shook it with him. In fact, Shade didn't promise anything. He decided to wait until Friday night to decide what he wanted to do based on the situation.
"I have one more question."
Xia De looked at her and asked:
"You are telling me this here, are you really not afraid of being discovered by it?"
"It is busy with other things now. Besides, although I am not as strong as it, I am still a devil."
The maid said, then pointed to the big lake:
"I know what you came here to find. It was indeed sealed here. But when it broke away from the seal, it destroyed most of the things. If you want some clues, go to the lake. There may be some The thing is still at the bottom of the lake, unnoticed by it."
After saying that, she bowed slightly to Shade, and then turned into black smoke composed of mosquitoes again, flying towards the bright sunset sky in the distance.
"Going into the water again? It's winter now."
Xia De covered his forehead and complained softly, and then under the setting sun, the dancing red butterflies flew out of his body one by one, until his entire body dispersed into a group of butterflies, flying towards to the big red lake below.
Of course, after landing later, he did not forget to come back and close the door.
(Little Mia is running.)
"Is this what you found?"
Early on Thursday morning, Benanis Manor, Randall Valley, Kasenlik United Kingdom.
Shad caressed Mia and sat at the breakfast table. The long dining table was very lively. Except for Luvia, who was called to help by the Prophet Association, and Margaret, who was busy preparing for tonight's banquet, everyone Everyone is here, even Iluna is here. And it was Iluna who asked the question just now. She thanked the maid who brought her scrambled eggs and continued her conversation with Shade.
"Yes, I swam at the bottom of the lake for four hours last night! By the time I landed, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening!"
Xia De said while drinking hot soup. Sitting opposite him, Miss Aurora, who was cutting bacon with a table knife, said with a smile:
"If Miss Anat were here, she would definitely talk about you."
"So I'm going to say it when she's not around."
Shad said, pushing aside the cat that was sniffing around on the table, and continued to point at the gravel he took out.
There are three stones in total. The smaller one is about the size of a palm. The back is quite rough and looks like it was peeled off from something big. The front is a smooth plane with a ring inlaid in the center. The ring has indentations and runes radiating from the center to all sides.
Of course, since there is only a palm-sized piece left, we can only roughly judge that this is one of the cores of the seal:
"If I hadn't been aware of the whispering element at that time, I wouldn't have been able to find these rubbles."
As he spoke, he asked the maid for a clean knife, and then pulled the ring out of the stone.
The band of the ring is black iron, and the surface of the ring is made of darker, rustic black iron. The ring surface is rectangular, slightly convex around the edges and concave inside, but the pattern inside the rectangle is convex.
The pattern is an ancient Third Age rune.
"Keeper-level relic, demon hunting seal."
Xia De said the name of the relic:
"The symbols of the witchers of the Third Age, the seal itself and the patterns printed on the seal can cause great harm to demons. But correspondingly, holding the seal will increase the probability of encountering demons. Moreover, The [Demon Hunting Seal] that has not been held by the Ring Warlock for a long time will have a high probability of encountering demons immediately if it is held again."
Xia De played with the ring in his hand:
"Of course, because I have been in contact with demons a lot recently, the negative properties of the ring have not been exerted for the time being."
"I remember, you already have one."
Sitting next to Miss Benanis is Miss Carina. The red-haired duchess got up the latest today. According to her, her origin and the struggles of her ancestors have determined that she does not have to get up too early.
"Yes, I got it from an ophthalmologist in Tobesk. Tifa was also with me at the time, acting as my detective assistant. After getting my ring, we immediately met someone from [Dark Realm]'s lower-level demon 'Hidden Servant'"
Shad nodded, that was also one of the commissions left by Detective Sparrow, and together with the ring, there were clues about the [Night Watch] in Sikal Mountain.
The black-haired maid smiled when Shade mentioned her name, while Miss Sylvia, who also had beautiful black hair, waved and let the stone without the ring fly towards her:
"Let me take a look at this. You said this is a sealing ceremony set up by the Ring Warlock when the ancient Stonewell Kingdom was destroyed? I didn't expect that there would be such a powerful sealing master in this era."
