The Whispering Verses Chapter 2622: Emperor-elect
Chapter 2621 Emperor Selection
"Try your time magic to work on this crystal."
Dorothy suggested, and Shade waved to the cat on the windowsill. The cat stood up lazily and jumped on the table. Then Shade was very dissatisfied and took off the cat from its tail. "The Ring of Immortality":
"Breath of Time!"
With the use of thaumaturgy, some gray-white air flow flew out of Shade's nose, and the crystal in his hand turned back into the bright red rose.
Dorothy continued to remind:
"But your Breath of Time cannot resurrect a creature, so although you can also turn the mouse back into a flesh-and-blood creature, its soul cannot come back."
The effect of thaumaturgy - Crystal Touch is very interesting. Dorothy even borrowed a related paper from the library to explore whether this thaumaturgy is a "transformation spell" or a time-type spell that "freezes time."
Both of them were very interested in this, so the class didn't end until ten o'clock that night. After that, it was time for the date. Miss Writer understood that Vanessa had just arrived in the local area, so she didn't come to see Shade for most of the week, but tonight belonged to them.
"Lessia said that after the Golden Dawn Opera Troupe's performance starts next week, she will often invite you to go to the opera. Everyone in the city is very interested in their performances, so even if she invites you, she will not Others will talk nonsense."
"Is this the kind of opera I understand?"
"Yes, my dear Shade~"
The space talents of the princess and the writer as the chosen ones are becoming more clear. Although there is still only one person who can be by Shade's side, they can use various methods to make Shade feel that he is actually with both of them. I personally hope that the maids will not hear the strange noise Lesia makes in her bedroom.
In short, Sunday is already the 28th day of September, the harvest month. Seeing that early autumn has passed and late autumn is approaching, it is fitting that it started to rain lightly in Tobesk this morning.
"Every rain in autumn makes the temperature cooler."
Dorothy was still very melancholy about this during breakfast. This should be the unique feeling of a writer like her towards autumn:
"Margaret visited Tobesk last fall, and it was really lively. This fall, Tobesk looks much deserted than last year. Shade, Lesia said there was going to be a war, will you? How to do it? No, she didn’t ask you, it was me who was curious.”
Seeing that the main topic of breakfast that day was political issues, the foreigner eating breakfast replied:
"Since we are going to fight, let's see if we can unify the North and the South."
The blonde girl laughed:
"I really didn't expect this answer. I thought you would say something like 'What does this have to do with me?'"
"This has something to do with me. Don't both the Cavendish and Anjou royal families have people I care about?
What I mean is that now the so-called final is coming, not only ring warlocks, but ordinary people must also be prepared. Since the two countries have conflicts, let's take advantage of this time to resolve them. Regardless of whether it ends with a comprehensive reconciliation or one country's complete annexation of another, this is the goal that this war must achieve. ”
He calculated the time:
"The war should start after this autumn, and I hope to end it before next winter. Time is running out, and the conflicts within civilization should be resolved as soon as possible, and then everyone will face the end hand in hand."
"This is the ideal situation you want, but there are many problems in it. For example - do you want to be the emperor, Shade? This is still my problem, not Lesia's."
She was worried that Sha De would misunderstand, so she explained specifically:
"This seems to be the best outcome. Whether it is Lecia, Carina or Margaret, they will support you."
Xia De shook his head:
"If a unified empire really emerges, the emperor will still be elected from among the princesses. I have no intention of getting involved in politics. With great power comes greater responsibility. I don't want to bear such responsibilities, and I don't enjoy the fun of power. If you think about it carefully, the elector system is actually not bad. ”
The outsider thought for a while:
"Well, Holy United Kingdom"
"What?"
Dorothy didn’t understand, and Shade shook his head again:
"It's nothing, and it's too early to say this. I only have a knighthood, so it's a bit exaggerated for me to say this."
"But I see that you have already made plans for the future political situation in the Old Continent. You think about it more than anyone else."
Dorothy said, Shade smiled and kissed the side of her face:
"Let's not talk so much, I'm already busy with things in Vista City. Speaking of which, can you help me take care of little Mia today? The Moon Dance Festival concert is opening, I"
"You want to accompany the witch to the concert, so you want me to take care of the cat, right?"
The blond girl asked, Shade hesitated for a moment and then told the truth:
"And Miss Daniste."
She rolled her eyes at Shade:
"I think you have completely taken control of us. I don't know why we initially thought you were a slow man who doesn't understand anything."
Of course, when Shade sent Dorothy downstairs after breakfast, she still did not forget to hug little Mia and kiss Shade, which showed that she was not angry.

(Luvia is divination)
Preparations for the Moon Dance Festival in the City of Vista began earlier this week. And when Shade came to the city on this Sunday morning, silver, red and yellow streamers had been tied to the branches of every big tree in the city, and the street lights representing the "moon" were also hung on the streets. ” flag and the city’s “city emblem,” which are three trees of different sizes.
The Moon Dance Festival is not a legal holiday in Kasenlik, but as the most traditional autumn festival in the South, the city hall has allocated a large sum of money to clean up and decorate the city. Vista City itself is a tourist city, so this expenditure is definitely worth it.
And tourists seemed to have jumped out of every corner of the city during the half day that Shade was away from the local area. Shade felt that there were at least twice as many people on the streets today than usual. It became difficult to get a cab.
The sound of musical instruments can be heard everywhere in the city from the shops of all sizes facing the street, and the carriage driver can chat with Shade about the "Moon Dance Festival" concert.
"Although the concert lasts for a week, tonight is the opening ceremony. The price of tickets for the Golden Concert Hall tonight is already as high as 10 kronor."
The carriage driver marveled at this, but did not feel that the price was exaggerated:
"The music we have here is the best, and tonight's opening ceremony is the only officially organized dance performance during the entire Moon Dance Festival. If you miss it, you will have to wait a year."
Because the city of Vista is close to Willendale, most of the tourists here come from Willendale. It seems that the haze of war and the poor food harvest in the entire Old World this autumn have not affected the people here at all. Shade does not know whether he should evaluate the amazing charm of music, or whether it is better to live in the same world but in different lives.
Vista City in autumn is a real tourist city, and the city center where the Golden Concert Hall is located is even more crowded. The carriage could hardly move after it approached the city center, so the coachman could only regretfully let Shade walk the last distance.
When Shade passed through the crowd and climbed the stairs to the third floor of the hotel, he already had three more flyers in his hand. These were all promotions for himself by other concert halls in the city.
However, the lively festive atmosphere did not seem to affect the ladies. Miss Danister and "Owl" were still sitting on the sofa and reading books, and Miss Bell was still busy delivering messages and preparing tea.
"Good morning, it's really lively today. I thought the Moon Dance Festival was a festival that started in the evening."
Xia De commented:
"In Tobesk, I have only seen so many people on the streets during the New Year's Day."
“The original meaning of the Moon Dance Festival is to worship the moon god. It’s good that people still celebrate this festival. It doesn’t matter if the meaning has been slightly changed.”
Miss Owl is very open-minded, and Shade thinks it makes sense:
"Then Miss Winslet, let's go and find out who the owner of that bottle of potion is."
He patted the slender box on his back, which contained [Night Watch]. Of course, he would not take it out unless necessary:
"I'm ready to fight."
Then the chubby owl spread its wings and flew into the sky, landing on Shade’s shoulder:
"Okay, let's go. Get that jar of umbilical cord ready. If you really need it, I can help you by restoring it to eleven rings."
"Actually, it's safer if I revert to the thirteen rings."
The red-haired girl said dryly, and the owl shook its head:
"The opponent's level must not be high, otherwise I would be able to find a tree hole."
The man who arranged to meet with Baron Cumming showed the ability of a ring wizard, so the appearance and gender described by the baron were not credible.
The Witch's followers have been hiding near the agreed meeting place since early this morning. Now that Shade and Miss Bell left the city with the owl, the two separated at the edge of the city to prevent being discovered.
Compared with today's bustling cities, the forest is still so desolate. Now that the Harvest Moon is coming to an end, most of the leaves on the big trees in the woodland have turned brown.
Walking in the forest full of fallen leaves, the first thing that came to Shade's mind was "Are there a lot of fires here in autumn?" However, the meeting place is not between trees. After all, it is difficult to find such a place without markers.
So the meeting place is next to the train track that runs through the forest. It is the oldest section of train track in Ximu Town. In the town era, it was the most important transportation line for transporting wood in and out of the forest.
The agreed time to meet was eleven o'clock in the morning, but the other party obviously had no intention of coming early. When Shade walked out of the forest, he happened to see the whining train speeding towards him. He subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to touch the animal on his shoulder to prevent it from scaring it, but he immediately thought of being killed by the ladies at home the day before yesterday. Something to "laugh at".
PS: The white crystal rose actually has illustrations, but the illustration did not pass the review. I don’t know why a crystal rose failed to pass the review.
