The Whispering Verses Chapter 2106: Gentle night
I woke up from Professor Drake's memory and looked up at the witch in front of me. Adele Isabella was also looking at him at this time. Seeing that Shade wanted to speak, the witch gently shook her head to stop him:
"Don't say goodbye, okay? I've already experienced too many goodbyes."
"But I will come back."
"That's what those people said when they said goodbye to me."
She pursed her lips and smiled, with no trace of sadness on her face. So Shade shut his mouth and said nothing.
[Hug her. 】
"She" said suddenly in my ear.
"Why?"
【Otherwise, would you just watch parting like this? 】
"She" smiled softly, considering that "her" advice was always reliable, so before the white mist completely surrounded him, Shade reached out and hugged the witch with the tear mole in front of her eyes.
Miss Isabella looked a little surprised, but did not dodge. But the hug only lasted two seconds and ended. The witch kept her arms slightly folded and looked at the empty living room in front of her where she was the only one.
His body curled up and he looked at the things left by Sha De on the white cloth covering the coffee table. It took a long time before a sigh sounded in the living room where she was the only one left.
[Outlander, you have returned to the present time. 】
When I left, it was in the Whispering Hills and Mountains in the north of Yuewan City, and it was naturally the same place after I returned. The home just now was as dark as the woodland now, so the eyes didn't need to adjust to the light. After staggering to stand still, he bent down to pick up the relics scattered on the ground. After confirming that nothing was left behind, Sha De walked back to the temporary camp next to the hilly stream.
The time adventure took three seconds, and it took more than twenty seconds to walk back and forth and pack things, so it was indeed only half a minute before he left.
At this time, the weak Miss Belindel held a divination card in her hand, but seeing Shade coming back, she panicked and tried to hide it. Just because he was too weak, the card accidentally slipped from his hand and almost fell into the bonfire. Fortunately, it was caught in time by the maid Matilda on the side.
The maid put the cards into her pocket without leaving a trace. Miss Belinder's face turned red and she tried her best to pretend that nothing happened. She said to Shade who came back:
"Come back so soon?"
Although half of her face covered by her hair was still shining transparently, judging from her performance just now, she seemed to be in good spirits.
"I found a solution, please listen to me."
Because all injuries on his body will recover after returning to reality, Shade looks normal at this time. But when he got closer, the maids and the blond witch noticed that his clothes were obviously newer, and he also had a faint smell of blood and earthy gravel.
His injuries have indeed recovered, but none of the girls present have become ring wizards or witches for the first time. Of course, they can tell that he must have experienced something in just half a minute.
"Are you okay?"
Miss Belindel looked at him worriedly and reached out to check, but her weak hand was pushed back by Shade halfway up:
"I'm fine, let's solve your problem first."
He also sat down by the campfire, took out the [Calamity Card - Shadow of the Deep Sea] and used the "Darkness Technique" again to prevent the light from spreading on the surface of Miss Belindel's skin.
Miss Matilda looked at her master, and then moved the witch she was supporting to Shade in a natural movement. Miss Belindel only became aware of her current appearance after she took the initiative to lean on Shade's shoulder.
She looked at her maid in surprise, who blinked, not feeling that she had done anything wrong.
Shad was also surprised that Miss Belindel would come closer, but he did not object. Instead, he briefly described the method he "came up with" and the possible consequences if he went to the parliament to seek help.
The blonde witch was thinking wildly in her mind as she listened, and being so close to Shade, she was very sure that the smell of blood on Shade's body was definitely his own blood after being injured. This was the inspiration. At the same time, she smelled some familiar perfume among the smell that made her feel dizzy and embarrassed.
The smell is subtle, but it's there. Others might have ignored it, but even though Miss Belindel was in a bad state of mind at the moment, she still relied on strong inspiration to realize that the smell was very similar to the perfume of the Speaker and the great witch of time, Miss Isabella.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
But because the result was too outrageous, she couldn't continue thinking about it.
At this time, Xia De also finished speaking:
"The current situation is almost like this. If you follow the treatment method I said, you will be able to return to normal tomorrow, but the relic still needs to be considered. [Source of Chaos] is just a choice, the relic itself is It has the effect of causing nightmares, and I don’t know how much of an impact it will have on you, so if you have other sage-level relics related to light, we can consider options other than [Source of Chaos].”
Miss Belindel shook her head:
“Sage-level relics don’t just exist.”
Looking at him with golden eyes:
"You should know what kind of relic the [Source of Chaos] is. The orb of the Yellow Moon, the source of confusion, directly symbolizes the yellow moon in the night sky. It is very useful to users of the moon's power and astrologers. It can be said to be a priceless treasure. Are you sure you want to lend it to me for healing?"
"Of course, it is of no use in my hands for the time being. In fact, I prefer to use it to solve mazes than to experience strength. My cat likes to play with beads, but I will not give this to it. It’s enough to play with the ring.”
Shad tried to make a joke, but found that the witch in front of him did not laugh. Just when he felt a little embarrassed, Miss Belindel pursed her lips slightly and looked at her maid again. Miss Matilda then handed over a coin. The blonde witch leaned on Shade's shoulder, raised her hand and tossed it:
"Then I'm sorry to bother you, I will pay you if I choose your treatment plan."
She did not choose the Council, but trusted her own divination results. Since I heard about her character from Miss Carina, this was expected.
"Forget about the reward, you and Miss Benenice are both members of the Parliament and should help each other. Oh, Miss Matilda, Miss Penster, and Miss Vincent, please help me."
The three maids stood up and carved the ritual array that Shade took out that can enhance the "Light Technique" on the ground with the bonfire as the center. And on the periphery of this ritual base formation, they prepared several "light extinguishing rituals" to prevent Shade from breaking through the upper limit of the camp's warning ritual effect when he casts a spell later.
While the maids were preparing, Shade dug out a pot and some herbs from the toys in his pocket, and prepared the very simple "swallowing decoction" that Miss Isabella said. The main function of this medicine is to make the human body more suitable for "light" energy, which is the most important preparation before treatment.
Miss Belindel sat there and watched the maids and Shade busy, watching Shade stir the gradually heated soup with a slightly clumsy technique. Shade, who had his back turned to her, was startled by the splashing bubbles because he was not prepared, but did not notice the slight smile on the lips of the witch behind him.
When the potion was ready, Shade took out a black cloth belt and handed it to Miss Belindel. The latter hesitated and didn't know what it meant, so Shade pointed out:
"Look at the firelight, is it transparent?"
She gave it a try:
"Light-impermeable."
"That's good."
Xia De then took back the cloth and put it on his face to cover his eyes, indicating that he would do so later. The three standing maids all saw this scene, and naturally saw the complicated expression on their master's face:
"you"
Although the ritual and potion were not complicated, it took more than half an hour to prepare. Shade stood up and checked again, then put the potion in a teacup and handed it to the witch. After she frowned and drank the steaming soup, Shade tied the black cloth band around her head and even waved her hand in front of her eyes to see if she could see the light.
The three maid ladies activated the ground ceremony and stood in a triangle shape around the two sitting people. Each of them picked up a piece of black cloth to cover them.
The night wind blew through the treetops and caused the bonfire beside the stream to sway slightly. Surrounded by black cloth, only a few shadows of the two people could still be seen by the outside world.
The stars above were bright, and the moonlight gently illuminated this scene. The cloth was slightly swayed by the wind, but you could still see from the shadow on the cloth that the long-haired lady and the cross-legged man were sitting opposite each other. The former tilted her head shyly and pulled down her clothes slightly from the collar, revealing The edge of the shoulder and the indescribable part.
The fallen leaves passed over the head, falling with the wind from a distance into the stream as cold as this long night. The shimmering light couldn't illuminate the figures of the two people, and they could only be seen through the shadows. Shade stretched out his hand and pressed it on the exposed shoulder. He raised his hand and scratched lightly amidst the witch's groan. The cold moonlight shone on his shoulder. Creating a wound, his index finger pierced into the translucent flesh.
"Yeah~"
The maids heard their master's groaning, and they were worried but knew they must not disturb him.
"I'm fine."
They heard their master say while enduring the pain, and then heard the man's calm voice:
"Silver Moon."
In an instant, a silvery brilliance bloomed beside the stream outside the forest, as if the moon really appeared between the three pieces of cloth. Although the holy and bright moonlight was bright, it was not overbearing at all. The light-extinguishing ceremony tried its best to prevent the light at this moment from spreading outside the camp, but in the middle of the ceremony, the maids standing holding black cloths, while the light brushed their bodies, knew clearly that the light was just an invisible thing. , but actually felt the cold tenderness at this moment.
It's hard to describe the feeling at this moment, but it really feels like being embraced by the moon. This is a fantasy of moonlit nights in girlhood, a romance that I have never had before.
As for the black cloth, the two special lights merged and collided in the witch's body, causing pain that even affected the soul. Even though Shade said that this process would not be easy, Miss Belindel was prepared in advance, but at this moment she still couldn't hold back her reaction to the pain:
"Yeah~"
I wanted to hold back the sound, but in the end I groaned. Because his right arm could not move, his left arm subconsciously hugged the neck of the man in front of him. While Shade continued to use the light technique to dispel the alien white light, Bella Belin was confused due to elemental conflict and mental confusion. Del, after doing something for many, many years, she still doesn’t know why she did it——
She opened her mouth and bit Shade's neck.
Fortunately, she did not bite in a location with dense blood vessels, so although Shade trembled, he did not stop for treatment:
"Fortunately, Miss Belinder is not a vampire. It seems that no one has ever bitten my neck before. This is the first time I have been hurt here in a long time."
Girls prefer shoulder biting.
The silver moon is gentle and stable. As the sourceless alien white light gradually "melts" into the silver moon's light, the great witch of fate gradually adapts to the pain. And when her consciousness woke up little by little, she finally realized what she was doing.
At that moment, her heartbeat almost stopped, but she did not let go immediately. Instead, while her head was spinning, she relaxed her teeth a little bit. However, she could still smell Shade's breath in her breath, and her teeth and lips still remained. You can feel the strong pulse of the blood vessels on Shade's neck. While her whole face turned red, she was glad that no one could see her face at the moment. Then she realized that she was almost hugging the man in front of her, and the abnormal beating of her heart would definitely be noticed.
I wanted to push him away, but I knew that the treatment could not be interrupted at this stage, otherwise it would have to happen again. So with a sudden change of heart, she simply continued to hug him with one hand and rested her head on his shoulder. Although her teeth no longer bit his neck, she still didn't dare to take a deep breath for fear of getting dizzy again. He squinted his eyes to try to calm down, but suddenly realized that he hadn't been this emotional for a long time.
The night wind is very gentle, but the moonlight on the other side of the body is even gentler. As the discomfort gradually disappeared, mental fatigue caused sleepiness to creep into my mind. Before she knew it, she fell asleep smelling the scent of the man she was hugging.
