The Whispering Verses Chapter 2268: Bedside Talk

Looking into those blue eyes for a second, Miss Benenice blinked, and then quickly closed the door again.

"What's wrong?"

Xia De asked curiously, and the witch shook her head:

"Oh, the way I opened the door just now may not be right, let me try again."

She adjusted her expression and took a deep breath, then opened the door again, but this time there was nothing outside.

So Vanessa Benanis sighed deeply, feeling glad that it was indeed an illusion, but also feeling deeply disappointed.

But before this complex emotion could ferment, she heard Miss Sylvia’s excited voice:

"Vanessa, look what I found! I just caught an ownerless young wild unicorn in Bella's manor!"

Miss Benenice turned her head and looked to the left. The black-haired young witch was kneeling on the carpet, happily stroking the pure white beast that still didn't know what was going on. The latter sniffed Miss Sylvia's body fiercely, and the blood memory reminded it of a certain type of special group of people.

"Ownerless? Wild?"

Miss Benenice repeated the word, then turned sharply and asked Miss Belindel in the room:

"Bella, are you raising unicorns?"

"What?"

The Countess asked in surprise. Before she could react, the little unicorn had already gotten rid of Miss Sylvia and rushed over quickly, squeezing its head through the door that was caught by Miss Benanis. There was a gap between it and the door frame, and then he happily screamed at Emilia who had woken up on the bed.

So the elf girl who pretended to be asleep had no choice but to wake up:

"Oh~ what time is it now? Can we have dinner?"

She sat up from the bed and pretended to wipe her eyes. Then she found a room full of beautiful ladies who made her feel ashamed and looked at her.

For various reasons, no one spoke. Emilia shrank her head, feeling that this scene was much scarier than facing the crow in the clock tower in the morning.

In short, Emilia's successful awakening can be regarded as a temporary end to the devil's matter.

Probably realizing that Shade still had something to talk to the elf girl, Miss Belindel called the other two witches and two witch apprentices to go to her study to discuss things.

Others were also very considerate and made space for Shade. However, before leaving, Miss Sylvia invited the little unicorn to go to the study together, but the pure white little beast only stayed on the bed. While accepting Emilia's touch, much to the young witch's dismay.

"Bella, is that unicorn really not yours?"

"Emma, ​​how can I raise a unicorn in Moon Bay? But it has lived here for a while, you know? Unicorn hair is really soft."

"Bella, I didn't expect that you were hiding not only the matter of Shade, but also the matter of the unicorn. To be honest, if there was no matter of the devil, have you ever thought about riding a unicorn to greet us? ”

This was the sound that came when they left from the corridor.

The door was closed by Miss Matilda who left last. When only Shade, Emilia and little Liana were left in the room, Shade said:

"Just give it a try."

He took out Dr. Schneider's bottle of potion again, and after applying the potion on Amelia's arm, no crow tattoo appeared this time.

Not only Shade, but also the elf girl herself breathed a sigh of relief, and then a bright smile appeared on her face:

"It's over, it's finally over! Moon Bay! Vacation! Summer! Vacation!"

"Yes, yes, ahem, please allow me to announce: Your 'imprisonment' period has ended, Emilia, you can go to the city for a walk."

Her face showed visible joy, Shade also touched the little unicorn next to her, and then said softly:

"Now that the matter is over, I will tell you what happened as agreed."

Seeing that she wanted to leave the bed, Shade asked her to continue sitting there and listen.

Since Emilia has seen Dr. Schneider in the morning, Shad’s story naturally starts with Emilia and her party leaving Tobesk, and the “witch hunter” Bill Schneider, who has returned from a meeting in another place, sniffs out the devil’s The stench started to come.

In the story, he described Dr. Schneider as a professional "hunter" who was determined to spend his life chasing and hunting demons, but in fact, if you think about it carefully, this is not wrong. As for the name of the demon of doom, Fanarius, since the demon has been swallowed by the doctor, you can say it casually.

Even for elves, this evil and ancient existence only remains in myths and legends. Emilia listened while holding on to the quilt at first, then hugged a pillow, and finally hugged the little unicorn's neck for some reason, and the latter seemed quite happy.

"That's probably what happened."

After telling the story, Shade pretended to be serious and made a summary:

"Miss Emilia Siam Nord, with your help, we were able to banish an evil existence that has never been sealed and eliminated in the history of human civilization. If it hadn't been for this, we wouldn't have said it easily. , your achievements are enough to earn you the title of 'brave' or 'hero'. Even if a statue is erected in St. Byron's as a memorial to you, it is definitely not an exaggeration."

Emilia smiled sheepishly after being praised:

"I won't talk nonsense about this. This is my secret summer adventure. In fact, I didn't do anything. It was you and Mr. Schneider who did it. I only made a small contribution. Our clan The tradition is that living people cannot erect statues, and I can’t be called a hero~"

She let go of the little unicorn, and then said to Shade with some embarrassment:

"Thank you for saving me, Shade, you are my hero."

Xia De shook his head and handed her the doctor’s red glass bead:

"This is the weapon we used to deal with the crow in the morning. Two were made, but only one was used. Doctor Schneider said, this is left for you as a souvenir, and it can also be used to a certain extent. to prevent you from encountering the devil again."

Emilia thanked her softly, and Shade looked at the [Night Watcher] who was lying flat on the bedside table. The silver long sword has experienced what happened in the morning and is now completely restored to its original state. It has not been changed or affected by the "Sword of Light".

Emilia also followed Shade’s eyes and looked over:

"The lightsaber that happened this morning actually had a greater impact than the devil's thing, right?"

Xia De nodded in surprise, not expecting that she could realize this:

"There are some things I didn't want to mention to you. Once you know it, you might be involved. But if you want to explain this matter, you must mention it, and you are now qualified to know. Emilia, do you want to know? This is not a courtesy, this is giving you a choice."

The pointed-eared elf girl nodded without thinking, looking at him with her emerald green eyes:

"Is this what you have been doing, and what the professors at the college have been doing frequently on business trips this year? I want to know. I understand that this is dangerous, but I am already in it, right?"

After confirming that Emilia really wanted to know these things, Shade started talking about the "Mumbling Psalm" and the chosen ones from the beginning. Of course, he did not explain the identity of each chosen person, but focused on the current investigation status of the seventh chosen person.

When Shade finished speaking, Emilia asked nervously:

"I actually don't have much justice. I just thought you were dead. I wanted to avenge you. I'm not the chosen one, right?"

"At least not for now, drawing the sword is only one of the conditions."

Emilia nodded quickly twice:

"The sword conveyed some information to me at that time. People who can pull it out once seem to be more likely to pull it out a second time than others in the future. In addition, there is some other information. I have some information now. It’s a mess, I’ll tell you when I sort it out.”

Shad smiled and nodded, then reached out and took the [Night Watch]. After handing it to Emilia, the silver sword only trembled, but did not turn into a sword of light again:

"But we know that you have not become the chosen one. Although others have guesses, they are absolutely not sure.

The ladies just now came from other places. They said that far away from Moon Bay, high-level ring warlocks with strong perception ability can feel the elemental fluctuations caused when you draw your sword. The church and other forces most likely already knew that someone riding a unicorn had drawn the sword of light. Although they can also understand that the chosen one has not yet appeared, this does not prevent them from wanting to find you and know how you did it. ”

"But this kind of thing cannot be replicated, right? Although I have experience, the devil has been exiled by Mr. Schneider. You can't bring it back just because you want to draw the sword, right? This is not justice."

Emilia asked with some distress, Shade nodded:

"Yes. And more importantly, we don't want to publish your identity. There is no benefit in publishing your identity. Instead, it will attract those weird illegal organizations."

Listening to what he said, Emilia understood the current situation she was facing:

"So what should I do next? Shade, I will listen to you. This summer vacation is really interesting."

The beautiful big eyes looked at Shade again, and Shade asked:

"Will you stay in this manor and face this with us?"

"Yes!"

She said almost immediately, but she felt guilty that she might have exposed her thoughts by answering too quickly. But fortunately, Shade didn't notice this, but said with a smile:

"That's good, you won't be bored anymore. Do you remember Princess Agelina? She has also come here, and is downstairs now. You can have a good chat later, or go there together Take a walk around the city. Of course, you have to talk to Count Belindel before going out."

PS: The picture in this chapter is "Night Watch". I have drawn many versions of the Night Watch so far, and I am quite satisfied with this version, but it is a pity that the "bright yellow runes" are not prominent enough. Readers are welcome to comment if they have any suggestions about the appearance of this sword, or if they think there are any shortcomings in the long sword pictured in this chapter.
