The Whispering Verses Chapter 1885: The arrival of Granny Cassandra
Chapter 1885 The arrival of Granny Cassandra
"Captain, don't blame me for dragging you in in the future. But this is not the opportunity I gave you, it is the opportunity you gave yourself. If you fail to quickly return to Tobesk, You cheered up and made great achievements in Fort Midhill, even if I wanted to give you a chance, it would be useless."
Shad said, picking up the wine glass and clinking it with Captain Rades.
At this moment, he suddenly had a strange feeling. The man in front of him, who has changed his destiny step by step because of his arrival, may be one of the traces of existence left by outsiders in this world.
"Perhaps, when I see the disaster transformed by Captain Rades in [the past life], I can truly understand what I have done in this world."
He drank the glass of low-strength ale, put down the glass, and saw Captain Rades looking out the window at the children in the village playing in the stables of the tavern, and asked again:
"Captain, do you think our meeting and conversation will be recorded in future history books?"
The captain looked at the children outside the window and shook his head gently:
"Detective, this is a really heavy topic. But this matter must never be recorded in the history books."
After all, the records in history books are too heavy.
Captain Rades is very grateful that Shade can provide him with this opportunity. Rumors about Shade and the duchess have been flying all over the sky for a long time. Since it is a personal letter brought by Shade, the captain does not have to worry about being pulled out to blame or being secretly dealt with afterwards.
The two sat in the tavern for a while, chatting about the possible consequences of what was about to happen. It was not until about eleven o'clock that they said goodbye to each other and left.
Because Grandma Cassandra's train was about to arrive in Green Lake City in the afternoon, Shade thought of returning to the city to greet her, which could be regarded as an expression of respect for the old witch. However, when he was looking for a carriage back to the city at Crossroads Village, he looked up and saw a priest and a doctor walking together.
The two came from the direction of the city and seemed to be crossing the border to the city on the other side of the lake. After Sha De waved hello, the doctor was the first to see Sha De:
"Detective, are you waiting for us?"
He asked with a smile.
Xia De also smiled and replied:
"I'm waiting for you to go to the tavern for lunch together. Are you going to the other side soon?"
The priest nodded cautiously:
"Yes, I can almost predict where the three brothers will appear. I called the doctor because I was worried that I wouldn't be able to stop them."
Xia De’s surprised answer:
"If that's the case, then I'll go with you. Speaking of which, the three of us haven't acted together yet."
The priest waved his hand:
"You don't need to go with us now. If you have time, you can go to us tonight. The doctor and I will arrange the ceremony first to prevent any accidents. We will start taking action at six o'clock, no, eight o'clock in the evening."
As he spoke, he took out his notebook and wrote the address to Shade.
Xia De put it away:
"Can you catch them tonight and get the materials you need?"
"It depends on luck."
The priest said, but he at least looked confident.
Farewell to the doctor and priest, Shade finally chose to throw away the glass slipper and go home, and then returned to the Green Lake Hotel from home. After having lunch with Dorothy, Miss Writer heard that Shade was going to meet the Red Butterfly sisters in the afternoon, so she also asked to go with Shade:
"Although this counts as leaving the hotel, you are with me. Even if I am 'lost' again, I am still lost with you."
As she spoke, she grabbed Shade's arms and put them on her chest. It was really difficult for Shade to refuse such a request.
The train taken by the old witch and his party was not delayed, and stopped at the Green Lake Railway Station on time at 2:35 pm. In this day and age, a train that is not late is almost as incredible as a city hall that is not corrupt.
Cassandra Auction House is very rich, and a group of people chartered two carriages. Besides Shade, those who came to greet Granny Cassandra were Megan and Audrey, who had nothing to do for the time being.
The brown-haired witch wore a blue dress with flowers today, and covered half of her face with a wide-brimmed hat.
"Mother-in-law, Miss Swift!"
When the train stopped and the young witch apprentice helped Grandma Cassandra out of the car door, Shade immediately said hello. Dorothy and Megan, who were talking behind him, also followed.
Subsequently, Grace and Helen also appeared from the car door, and smiled and waved to Shade. The two sisters traveling by train still wore black and white dresses according to their own habits. But in order to adapt to the long-term sitting position, the skirts are not as cumbersome as when they were in Middlesbrough, but they make them look more youthful and energetic.
They first greeted Shade, then talked to Dorothy, and finally noticed the brown-haired Megan.
Megan has only heard about these two "teachers" of Cassandra's mother-in-law. Seeing them at this time, plus the night when Lesia and Dorothy unexpectedly appeared, she had seen their figures, so although neither Shade nor the old witch introduced them, she had already vaguely guessed Who is this.
The ruby butterfly pendant that Luvia hung on her neck a few days ago vaguely resonated with her. When Grace and Helen saw her, they already knew about this special person in front of them. Who is the soul?
Helen in the black dress seemed to have something to say, but after being patted by her sister, she obediently shut her mouth. Instead of chatting at the train station, the group got into the carriage arranged by Meghan and headed to the residence of Cassandra's mother-in-law and her group.
It is worth mentioning that although Cassandra Auction House has opened in almost every corner of the Old Continent, the backward city of Green Lake is a "rural place" without an auction house. On the other hand, there is a Cassandra Auction House in the City of Glass on the other side of the lake, but unfortunately, Granny Cassandra came to the local area this time as a business representative of the Kingdom of Delarion, so it is impossible to live in a neighboring country.
Nowadays, almost all the places in Green Lake City that can allow outsiders to live decently are full of people. Shade wanted Granny Cassandra and her party to stay at the Green Lake Hotel, but there were not enough rooms in the hotel.
So, in the end, Miss Carina, as a duke, found a small manor in the city for the old witch. Although the area cannot be compared with the Rose Manor where she lives temporarily, the location of that small manor is very good, and it can almost be regarded as next door to the Rose Manor. In this way, it is also very convenient to live.
Miss Carina has already arranged the furniture and servants in the manor. In addition, Granny Cassandra also has a maid, so there is no need to pack anything specially when moving into the manor.
After the group of people arrived at the manor, Grace and Helen quietly pulled Shade's sleeves, so Shade took the time to temporarily leave the reception room while others were chatting, and saw the clone in the corridor. The two sisters were chatting indoors and their bodies had quietly run out:
"The great witch of knowledge and wisdom is really amazing. If she had lived in our time, maybe the Church of the Twin Gods would not be interested in us. It is really amazing, we have never seen it before Such a strange twin soul."
Based on the age and experience of the two sisters, their compliment carries a lot of weight.
"I'm very curious. In my opinion, Audrey and Megan's current situation is more suitable to be the first choice than the Edwards family. In ancient times, even if they were defeated by the ancient space god, I'm not surprised that believers regard them as 'saints', but why do they still not appear as independent candidates?"
Xia De said this. His original intention was to express his doubts, not to ask questions to the two sisters. Unexpectedly, Grace glanced at her sister and tugged on Shade's sleeve:
"Sir, when we were in the Randall Valley, you should have also discovered that Vanessa Benenice, the witch of the earth, also has the potential to become the chosen one of the earth, but she is still not the chosen one."
Shad nodded, Helen in black dress pursed her lips and said softly:
"After this, you will find that the great witches of the Witch Council, no matter how much they meet the requirements of the chosen ones, are definitely not the chosen ones. The position of the chosen ones of chaos is hard to say. Although we have never I have become a member of the Parliament, but over the years I have had more contact with the "dark" witches represented by Xina and others, and I have learned some inside stories about the unique thirteen great witches who have inherited this unique mission. is their ultimate secret, they must remember their mission, so they will not be the chosen ones."
"That's it"
He suddenly thought that he seemed to have seen in the true information about the Fifth Era given by the tree father that the two great witches who launched the witch war did so because they believed that the other witches had forgotten their responsibilities. Only then decided to end the Fifth Era (383).
Grace and Helen only knew a little about the ultimate secret of the Witch Council, but they forgot what they knew. As for asking the great witch around him, Shade believed that he would most likely not get the answer. Only when he really masters it one day and is truly trusted by the Witch Council, he might be able to know these things from the mouth of the great witch of time.
"Speaking of the Church of the Twin Gods, I met the last two believers of the sect a few days ago. Don't be so surprised, they are just ordinary people. Although the sect still exists in name, it is actually dead. But."
Xia De reached into his pocket and took out the red orb that looked at the sun and could see a red butterfly inside. Although he didn't know what it was, since it was given to Grace and Helen by the two old women, he wouldn't hide it.
