Chapter 1440: Divergence of Destiny
The kiss under the moonlight lasted for a long time, and when they finally walked away, Shade and Miss Lassus appeared.
Miss Lassers looked at their backs, and Shade bent down to pick up the two pages of paper on the ground, carefully folded them and put them into his pocket. To him, these two pages of paper were still It has a great effect:
"If judged by the standards of a drama or opera, the tension and impact of the last scene are obviously not enough."
Xia De commented.
"But real life is not acting, plainness is the main theme of life. I really like the ending of this story, but I didn't expect that Maggie would actually do that kind of thing in Willondale."
Miss Lassers looked at their retreating figures and said.
"Let's go back, Margaret will probably come out soon."
Shad said, Miss Lassus nodded, but suddenly asked:
"Speaking of which, I have been a little curious since just now, why did you run to the stables? You said it yourself, you arrived at the stables first, and then Mr. Enriquez suddenly appeared."
Shadow could have used Stone Oxenfurt to deflect the topic, but he didn't.
He stopped and looked at Miss Lassers’ delicate face under the gas lamp:
"I just met the guardian again. But it was not the guardian's body, but an incarnation of clay. He told me that there was a big problem in the heart of the earth. After a while, the banquet was over, we returned to the manor, and I Give it to my sister, and Guardian, let me give this to you."
He took out the golden stone:
"By touching this stone, you can gain the power of the earth."
While trying to help Shade retrieve the time key in the Night Temple, Miss Lassus accidentally obtained the memories left by the witch from the previous era, Ms. Blechet, the friend Shade met in the Worm Cave, and thus Obtained information about thaumaturgy - the power of the earth and the memory of the earth.
She can learn this magic as long as she comes into contact with the power related to the power of the earth. Although Shade didn't want Miss Lassus to become part of the Guardian after her death, because the Chosen One ceremony required inviting five holders of the power of the earth, Shade had to give her this stone.
But Miss Lassers did not take the stone, but asked:
"Are you hiding something from me?"
Beautiful eyes looked at Shade in the cold night.
"Why do you say that?"
"Recently, you often look at me with very strange eyes, as if you are worried that I will die suddenly. Moreover, last time at the Black Night Temple, you said very strange words to me, telling me not to give up easily. My own life. Although I can’t guess what you know, it’s obvious that you are hiding something important from me.”
The blonde girl looked at Shade and didn’t know what to say:
"Luvia must also know what you are hiding from me. Although Vanessa doesn't know all the details, she probably guessed it. You told me that I was the third candidate for the election. You The things you kept secret from me must be related to the chosen one, right?"
Xia De still didn’t speak.
"Is this matter related to my father? He specially sent this stone so that I could fully master the power of the earth and have the possibility of becoming the chosen one. This is definitely not because he still cares about me, but because of this It’s good for the earth, I understand.”
The young girl closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes and looked at Shade, there was a pitiful emotion in her eyes that Shade couldn't understand:
"The Guardian wants me to die and become a part of him?"
Although she did not think of the devil's conspiracy, she had already thought of the reason why the guardian sent the stones:
"The reason why you and Luvia refused to tell me is actually because my death is an act that can benefit everyone."
"Your death can indeed change some things, but I have other means that can achieve the same result."
Xia De directly put away the golden stone:
"So, if you really die according to the wishes of the guardians, that will lead to the worst ending. Miss Lassers"
"Call me Siris."
She said forcefully.
"Okay, Siris."
Shad pointed in the direction of the manor house:
"There are many paths before me, and I don't want to choose the one where you die. The Guardians are crazy, and even if they are not crazy, they are not normal. You met your father, you know, they They regard the earth as the most important thing, and they do not have the normal emotions of living people. Therefore, they are wrong, and you should not recognize the path they have chosen for you."
Hiris looked at him like this:
"Even if the earth may be destroyed, you are not willing to let me sacrifice?"
She should have a spirit of sacrifice herself, otherwise she would not have had the final conversation with the long-haired Luvia in the clip of [Past Life, Sixth Era] that Shade saw.
"I said, I have other ways. The earth will not be completely distorted so easily without your sacrifice. Siris, I know I may be a little harsh, but you have no regard for this world. So important."
The young girl was not angry, but smiled:
"Can you promise me something?"
"What happened?"
"I have reached the last step of my father's life. Tomorrow, Friday, accompany me to the Church of the Forgotten. Although this matter seems to me now, except for making me sentimental, it has nothing to do with the past. It has other meanings, but I still want to understand my father’s thoughts in the last moments of his life, and I want to see the last scenery my father saw.”
Those eyes looked at Shade, and Shade instinctively felt that rejecting this invitation would probably have very bad consequences in the upcoming ending of the story.
[The divergence point of fate. The choices you are about to make will have a significant impact on the future. 】
The murmur sounded softly in Shade's ears, which made Shade make a decision immediately:
"No problem, you can do it anytime during the day tomorrow. However, I won't give it to you for the time being. In order to prevent what I want to refuse to happen, I won't give it to you for the time being."
The young blonde girl pursed her lips and looked at him, and after a long time she said softly:
"I probably know, the great witches of the Witch Council, why. Thank you."
Winter has not completely passed yet, and standing in an open courtyard chatting at night is definitely not a good choice. Shade and Sirius did not stay at the fountain, but returned to the mansion where the banquet was being held.
"What did you do?"
As soon as they entered the lively banquet hall, Miss Sylvia and Miss Benanis came over together. The two gorgeous witches both held wine glasses in their hands, but Miss Sylvia held champagne, while Miss Benanis held red wine.
"We went outside to talk about things tomorrow night and early Saturday morning."
Shad said vaguely, while Sirius smiled and ignored the topic:
"Your Highness Margaret hasn't come out yet?"
"Coming soon. I just came from the study, and the final negotiation went smoothly."
Miss Sylvia said, walking to the sofa next to the wall with the other three people:
"Margaret increased the amount of compensation, but divided the compensation period into three installments. The first installment is paid now, and the remaining two installments are paid every six months. Prince William also paid a sum for this credit. Money. Taken together, the representatives of the Stonemasons Association generally agree."
"What is the final form of the apology, and the king's request to repair the royal mausoleum."
Shad asked, Miss Benanis smiled and said:
"My future apprentice is really capable. We have actually fallen into a thinking trap. Is repairing the royal tomb really a chore?"
“If you have the right wages, even if you lose money by repairing the royal mausoleum, it will also be very helpful in improving your reputation.”
Miss Lassers said, and then prompted:
"The result that the royal family wants to achieve is that in the eyes of the outside world, the Masons' Association works for free. In fact, it doesn't matter."
Xia De understood a little bit:
"Although King 'Lion' Ryan said that the Masons' Guild should repair it for free, this was for the sake of the royal family's face. In fact, Margaret could have outsourced the labor to the Masons' Guild from another aspect? I mean, She set up a shell company of her own, and the royal family delegated tasks to this unmanned company, and then the company hired the Randall Valley Masons Association. As long as this relationship was not exposed, it was completely true that the Masons Association did not take anything from the royal family. money, but still restored the mausoleum."
Miss Sylvia looked at Shade in surprise:
"I didn't expect you would actually want it. In your life experience, have you never experienced anything similar?"
"I read more books."
The foreigner said extremely modestly, so Miss Benanis asked:
"So Mr. Knight, who reads a lot, guess what, how are you going to fool around with the apology?"
"This."
"Oh, don't move!"
The blonde witch suddenly said, then reached out and hugged Shade's left arm with both arms:
"There is someone taking pictures over there. Just like last time, help me disguise it."
Her whole body leaned close to her, her head tilted slightly, and she leaned on Shade's shoulder:
"This time in the Randall Valley, the council provided too much help. This will definitely make the Church of the Five Gods suspect that there is a resident witch from the Witch Council in the local area, otherwise many things cannot be explained clearly. So, help Let me get rid of the suspicion. No one would have thought that the women in the widely rumored 'Handkerchief Lovers Association' also have close relationships with men."
"Were they often like this before we came here?"
Miss Sylvia, who was holding the champagne, raised her eyebrows and asked Sirius who was sitting next to her. The young blonde girl looked at the two of them, smiled and shook her head:
"Vanessa's boldness has only happened in the past few weeks."
Then she was threatened by her best friend with her beautiful big golden eyes mixed with a little green.
