The Whispering Verses Chapter 613: Successful rescue
Chapter 613 Successful Rescue
The dawn light was already shining on the courtyard of Russell Manor. In front of the smoking bonfire, the old witch glanced at Shade again:
"Very good. Young man, please rest assured that I am a very open-minded person. I will not talk nonsense about you and Carina."
She winked at Shade.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but from the corner of his eye, Shade seemed to see Sister Devlin, who had always been expressionless, with a smile on her lips. But if you look closely, you will see that the fair face under the silver crown-shaped eye mask is still expressionless.
After the excitement, tiredness had already flooded into Sha De's heart. He continued to fight evil spirits throughout the night, broke into the land of death, used mythical locks, and even attended the evil god's drinking party. Even if the physical fatigue is bearable, the mental fatigue is uncontrollable.
Now that I have finished telling my story, I can only say goodbye to the Witch and Sister Devlin, and agree on a time for my next visit. After confirming that no one was following him, he climbed up Sikal Mountain from the foot of the mountain, found the abandoned tower in the forest, and returned to his home.
"Oh, Shade!"
Just after returning to the first floor from the basement, someone opened the door of No. 6 Saint Teresa Square with a key from outside.
It was Luvia. She was carrying a metal lunch box and looked at Shade walking out of the basement in shock.
At this time, footsteps were heard upstairs, but Luvia still closed the door without any scruples, put the lunch box on the shoe cabinet, and then opened her arms to hug him.
"Shad!"
Dorothy and little Mia walked down the stairs together. Luvia suddenly let go of Shade, then pushed him away, and went to get the lunch box again with a slightly red face. Therefore, the blond writer lady did not see the scene where the two embraced.
"The priest is safe."
Xia De said to the two of them, yawned and felt like he could hardly open his eyes.
He bent down and picked up his cat. Little Mia arched back and forth in Shade's arms, not caring how dirty he was.
"Great."
Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to hug Shade, but because of Luvia, she couldn't do so:
"Did last night go well?"
"It's okay."
He did not say that he had died once, for fear of causing panic to the two girls.
"Dr. Schneider went back last night, but he will probably come back soon. We all stayed at your place last night. I just went out to buy breakfast, so we can eat together."
Luvia said, motioning to go upstairs to talk.
Both ladies can cook, but there are no good ingredients in the Shade family's kitchen where mice can almost starve to death, and they are not in the mood to cook, so Luvia runs out to buy breakfast.
"Speaking of which, I'm really hungry and very sleepy."
As he spoke, Shade yawned again. And as if it was infected by his yawn, the cat he was holding also opened its mouth and yawned.
"No problem, but let's have breakfast first and then go to bed. We'll tell the doctor the good news later."
Luvia, who was walking at the front, shook the lunch box in her hand, with a smile on her face.
The blond writer lady walked behind and confirmed that Shade had returned safely. She also smiled and said:
"Your milk and Mia's goat milk have also been heated. Really, Shade, your family is so big, can't you store more food?"
Perhaps death had finally affected him, so he omitted the story behind the door. After telling the girls about last night's experience at the dinner table, he had breakfast at around seven o'clock on Sunday morning and climbed into bed. Shade fell asleep It's eight o'clock on the next day, Monday morning. When he opened his eyes again, the dawn outside the bedroom was still in Tobesk, which made him doubt whether he had fallen asleep after all.
"I actually slept for twenty-four hours?"
[Yes. 】
After I woke up, I felt my chest was tight again, so I reached out to fish it out, and sure enough I found the cat huddled up on the quilt. Seeing Shade wake up, the cat looked at him in surprise, and then suddenly tried to rub Shade's face with its face.
It probably thought that Shade, who had slept all day, was dead.
Wearing slippers and holding the cat, she walked out of the bedroom, but as soon as she opened the bedroom door, she saw Tifa standing next to the sofa. Two unknown maids were busy making tea in the kitchen. Miss Carina was sitting on the sofa. Writing a book.
Hearing the sound, the red-haired duchess took the book away and tilted her head to look at the door where she was lying on her side. The autumn morning light shone on the witch's almost flawless face, and her golden eyes really shone in the afterglow of the morning glow.
"What is your look like?"
The lazy red-haired witch asked, putting the book aside:
"I've been waiting for you all morning. How did you sleep?"
"Very good."
Shade, who came back to his senses, said with a smile, his eyes sizing up the figure of the witch in the morning light. Miss Carina also noticed Shade's eyes and said with a nonchalant smile:
"I have nothing else to do today. Let's have breakfast together later. I'm still waiting for your story."
She motioned to Shade to sit down and talk, and Shade also noticed the letters left by Dorothy and Luvia. They also had their own things to do, so not long after Shade fell asleep, they left after confirming that he was safe and sound.
They came again last night and found that Shade was still sleeping, so they did not wake him up. Instead, they made dinner for Mia. They left a letter and asked him to tell him when he woke up before leaving again.
As for how Miss Carina opened the door on the first floor of No. 6 St. Teresa Square this morning, it was because Shade specially gave Tifa a spare one in order to let the maid who came to clean the door every week. key.
"You don't have to worry about Mother-in-law Cassandra. After she heard about you, she was even a little too friendly to you. You are very good at pleasing the witches."
The last half of the sentence was whispered, which made Tifa smile. Seeing Shade looking at her, the black-haired maid winked at him.
"Grandma Cassandra has already told me about your experience at Fort Midhill. You are really brave."
The witch looked at Shade, staring at him with her golden eyes, but did not blame him for taking too many risks:
"You were lucky this time, but you can't always be so lucky, reckless knight."
"I have always believed that the difference between recklessness and bravery lies only in the result, not in what the decision is based on."
Xia De hugged the cat and expressed his opinion:
"Anyway, I succeeded."
"But Fort Midhill is in chaos."
The witch said lightly, tucking some hair behind her ears.
"It has nothing to do with me this time."
Xia De immediately shook his head, wanting to clear up the relationship, but at the same time he felt that his sofa was so intimate.
"The special local aurora phenomenon before dawn on Sunday may have nothing to do with you. Now I am mainly suspicious of the Godcaller of Tobesk and the mermaid nemesis of Coldwater Port who ran out of nowhere."
These two titles should refer to the same person. As she spoke, she glanced at Shade:
"But because of the disappearance of your team members, you asked St. Byrons for help, and then St. Byrons sent a letter to inquire about the Dawn Church, which then led the college to discover that the Five Gods Church was in Fort Midhill and small moves in the Sikal Mountains area."
The maid brought a saucer with some appetizing snacks on it. Tifa bent down and placed the plate on the table. Both Shad and Miss Carina glanced at her figure. Shade let go of the cat, but the reserved little Mia would not touch the things on the plate by herself. She was waiting for Shade to bring it to her.
"So."
The hand that was not touching the cat tapped on the sofa.
"So the academy discovered something remarkable, no, it does not refer to the [Chasm of Life and Death]. The academy has also heard about this relic, but it does not have much to do with the three major thaumaturgy academies. The academy discovered Now, the "Mumbling Psalm" in the hands of the church points to the third chosen one, who will eventually hold a ceremony in the city of Fort Midhill."
"The Whispering Poems" was written on different artifacts by the last thirteen witch emperors, so what people in the Sixth Age can see are fragments. What is known about the second chosen one is that he will have adventures in Coldwater Harbor, while information about the third chosen one is about the location where the final ceremony will be held.
"The Chosen One of Death?"
Xia De frowned slightly, and then expressed his judgment:
"Since it is such a special place in Fort Midhill, I don't think it has anything to do with death."
"Most people think so too, including the Parliament. This time it's a matter about Fort Midhill, so I can finally have some leisure time - this matter was reported by Xina Kassandra of the Twelfth Seat Mother-in-law is responsible.”
The witch glanced at Shade and couldn't help but smile:
"However, wherever you go, the chosen one will appear. How about telling me your destination in advance before you plan to take a long journey next time?"
"Just a coincidence, I guess."
"You will definitely run to Fort Midhill City recently, and I won't stop you. But you must remember not to go to the [Chamber of Life and Death] again. After seeing Granny Cassandra last night, I met the Speaker again, and she warned me not to touch the secrets of Fort Midhill easily, as it was more dangerous than I imagined."
The "speaker" is the strongest witch in the contemporary era. As a thirteen-ring warlock, her witch level should be at least twelfth level. As for how powerful witches of the twelfth or even thirteenth level were, Shade had already seen it from the original librarian, Miss Olanold, and the founder of the academy.
