The Whispering Verses Chapter 558: New key
The body of Anne Julian standing at the door was transparent. She was not wearing that very beautiful wedding dress, nor was she wearing a veil, so the marks on her neck were very obvious.
"Soul?"
If the soul wants to stay, rather than continue on, it often needs some special conditions. A corpse affected by a relic is also a special case.
The lady at the door did not look at Shade and Iluna, but looked sadly at the decapitated body of Toby Julian on the ground. But unfortunately, this gentleman was only killed by the undead, and his soul did not stop.
Xia De didn’t know whether he continued walking or was absorbed by the relic. But in short, Toby Julian did not hesitate to commit so many crimes in order to see his sister again. But in the end, when the soul did return, he himself left.
"This is an ordinary soul."
Shadow said that this kind of soul is similar to the soul he has seen dead in the attic with illegal magazines. Even if it is left alone, nothing will happen, and it will leave after a period of time.
But Iluna thought about it and walked over:
"Do you want to say something?"
The seventeen-year-old girl asked seriously. Miss Anne Julian's soul seemed to have some wisdom. She looked at Iluna, who was covering one eye:
"I'm...sorry for causing you so much trouble."
The voice is very gentle, and she was probably a very gentle person when she was alive.
"This is not your fault. Now, please move on."
Eluna said, under the gaze of that strange eye, the soul is becoming transparent.
"I actually know that my brother has complicated feelings for me, but we can't be together..."
The intermittent voice seemed to be making the final supplement to this tragedy. Shade didn't know what Iluna's expression was.
"It's not your fault."
Iluna said softly, this seventeen-year-old girl seemed to be very touched by this kind of thing:
"The past is over."
"My brother died because of me."
Miss Julian's soul seems to want to cry, but unfortunately, unless the soul power can be controlled, a normal soul does not have this function.
Eluna took a deep breath:
"The boundaries between the dead and the living cannot be broken. This is the basic rule of this world. Now that it is over, this is his sin. Please leave, Miss Julian."
"Is it fate's fault? If we were not brother and sister, if he could tell me, he..."
The soul looked at Iluna, and Iluna shook her head:
"We have no ifs, we can only look forward. Leave, this story is over."
She seemed extremely mature when dealing with this kind of thing, at least more mature than Shade thought.
The girl with long brown hair stretched out her left hand to cover her eyes, wanting to touch the soul in front of her. The soul scattered into dots of light at her fingertips, and finally disappeared.
Eluna sighed and turned to look at Shade, who was standing between the two corpses. She seemed to be in a bad mood:
"Detective, whose fault do you think this is?"
"Of course it's Toby Julian's fault. Even without the relic, he would have done other things."
The outsider has a very clear view of this matter that has nothing to do with him, at least he thinks so:
“I’ve seen a lot of this kind of tragedy in stories. Isn’t that what tragedy is?
The wrong person does the wrong thing, the right person does the wrong thing, the wrong person does the right thing, or even the right person does the right thing, it may lead to tragedy. But if you do something wrong, you do something wrong. There is no doubt that Toby Julian caused this tragedy. ”
"Fortunately I didn't let you talk to Anne Julian just now, otherwise she would turn into an evil spirit."
Eluna said, looking at the two corpses on the ground with a slight smile on her face:
"But you are right, this is a tragedy..."
He looked down at the parchment roll held in his right hand and sighed softly;
"Death, tragedy, these things really affect the mood."
"Yes."
Shadow is still thinking about telling this story to Dorothy as material for a novel.
Suddenly he heard the sound of a whistle, and Shade looked up. Behind Iluna, a golden life ring emerged on its own in the steam mist. The weak spiritual light gathered on the life ring, and the black iron-colored spiritual light finally formed a new spiritual rune [Tragedy]. Iluna Beas's third-level and four-level spiritual runes are complete, and she is ready to advance to the fourth level.
(Little Mia is running...)
"You look so lethargic, is it because you haven't had any rest?"
This is what Miss Carina, who was sitting at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square, said to Shade with a smile on Wednesday morning.
Shad sat on the sofa opposite the coffee table and held Mia, Tifa stood behind Miss Carina, and the other two maids who came with the duchess were preparing tea.
"I had nightmares at night."
Xia De yawned and touched the soft cat and said.
"I always thought you were very bold. What were you dreaming about?"
Miss Carina is very curious.
"Dreaming about the bride."
Although the adventure last night was not particularly dangerous, the scene of the corpse bride sliding out holding her head in the dark really left a big shadow on Shade.
"Oh? Bride?"
The witch raised her eyebrows:
"Did you dream that you were killed by several girls in wedding dresses at your wedding?"
Xia De thought about the scene for a moment and immediately shook his head:
"You may have misunderstood. It's not me who wants to get married, but the corpse bride."
He yawned again:
"I dreamed that the corpse bride surrounded No. 6 Saint Teresa Square. I kept running and hiding in this big house, but I was finally discovered. Then I woke up."
"Are you scared to wake up?"
Tifa took the saucer brought by the maid, poured tea for the two of them, and asked casually with a smile.
"No, it was woken up by Mia. It wants to have breakfast."
He told what happened last night, and then took out the letter Iluna sent this morning. Unfortunately, Iluna's vacation was ruined, and now their team needs to investigate the origins of the marriage contract.
"It's really amazing. Judging from the specific characteristics, this can be regarded as the most dangerous type of [Secretkeeper-level] relic."
There are records in the Church of Dawn about the Keeper-level relic "Groo Winston Marriage Contract". This is a contract that appeared in the Second Age. What is the prototype? The church and the academy have great differences. . The church believes that this is a contract of the ancient church of old gods, and the academy believes that this is the marriage code of the ancient kingdom.
Miss Carina looked at the letter and said with a smile:
“You see, writing the names of two living people on it can make them fall in love forever; writing the names of living people and dead people on it can break the boundary between life and death; and writing the names of living people and dead people on it can break the boundary between life and death; Just write your name and you can actually..."
"How was it?"
Xia De asked curiously while holding little Mia. He had just read half of it when Miss Carina came, so he didn't read the second half of the letter.
"The information released by the church is absolutely incomplete. I bet that this relic can be used as the core of the god-summoning ceremony."
Miss Carina closed the letter and returned it to Shade:
"Writing the names of humans and non-humans, writing the names of two deceased people, or writing the names of more than two people will cause the relic to get out of control. You are so lucky that you did not encounter a situation where it was out of control. But out of control, It doesn't mean that the effect of "Together" will not work. It's really interesting. Could this item really be a contract signed by a priest of a certain **** or a witch in the Third Age when they joined the church?"
Shad once again thought of Miss Feliana's words - never underestimate the role of a relic, and never be fooled by its superficial characteristics.
"What would happen if I wrote 'another me'?"
Xia De proposed a bolder idea. Miss Carina looked at him in surprise, unable to understand how he came up with this problem:
"'Another me' is not a real name. The real name of the other me is ourselves. And writing two of our own names has no effect."
Xia De nodded clearly, and for some reason, the word "Su Lun" jumped out of his mind.
After talking about what happened last night, we talked about the purpose of Miss Carina's visit. She came specifically to give Shade a new time key.
Knowing that Shade could truly travel through time, she looked forward to Shade seeing Miss Feliana again.
The time key that the Duchess found this time corresponds to the time point of the fifth era, 3014, which is 12 years after Shade met Miss Feliana in the Forest of a Thousand Trees. Miss Feliana was still young at that time, because St. Byrons Comprehensive College was established around 3050. According to records, the founder, Myrna Feliana, appeared to be twenty-three or fourteen years old, so even though they were separated for 12 years, she was still young. In 2008, the Miss Feliana that Shade saw should still be the same as before.
Miss Carina handed the key to Shade, who took the key and held it in his hand:
"But I can't guarantee that I will be able to meet that lady again."
"It doesn't matter. If you try one by one, you will always have a chance to encounter it. The acquisition of the time key is not simple, and it is also the key to a specific point in time. But as long as there are gold pounds, you can always find it. I can't We guarantee that you will be provided with keys frequently, so I hope you have better luck."
The Duchess said, looking at Shade, and then reminded:
"Don't rush this, just take your time, and you don't have to tire yourself."
"Safety first, I understand that. But how do I pay for these keys?"
Shad handed the key in his hand to the curious cat. The cat didn't see what Shad got and thought it was food. But when he saw the key, he lost interest. He had seen this kind of thing in Shade's hands.
"After you meet Miss Feliana, just ask me a question. You don't have to be so polite to me, you are different from others in my heart."
The red-haired duchess said lightly, looking at Shade with a teasing look. Tifa stood behind her and also smiled.
"This is not possible. Asking questions is easy, but keys are very precious... I have a copy of Miss Feliana's handwriting here. You can copy a copy and take it away."
Xia De has flipped through the notebook almost twice, and there is nothing in it that only he knows.
"Oh?"
Miss Carina narrowed her eyes slightly:
"You still have something like this? Detective, do you know how much this is worth?"
"Just don't show the contents of the notebook to people other than you and Tifa. You don't have to be so polite to me..."
Shad looked up at the witch and repeated her words:
"...You are different from others in my heart."
The witch touched her smooth chin and looked at Shade.
Time seems to have stopped in this leisurely morning, the dust in the air has solidified, the sun shines on the maids' skirts, the cat's eyes are staring at the teacup on the table, and the fluff on its cheeks is trembling evenly.
The young man opposite was sitting on the old-fashioned couch with a smile in his eyes, and she was reflected in her eyes.
The years are just right and life is comfortable. For a moment, Carina Cavendish, who thought she had experienced "love", actually thought that her heart was moved by a simple sentence.
"But this is also what I said."
She also smiled back at Shade.
But no matter what, this vivid and real scalp-numbing scene will definitely become the most important memory in the witch's life.
