"Grandma Cassandra learned the itinerary of the two witches from the council. The heavy snow swept across the entire western part of the Old World centered on the Pantanal. Early this morning, the princess and her party were forced to travel a distance from here.
We will land in the small town of Vincent, which is about 180 miles (about 290km) away, and then transfer to a carriage and then a train to continue to Huntington."
The nun sitting on the sofa said, Shade nodded and looked at the scenery outside the window worriedly:
"Only 180 miles left? If the weather is normal, we can get there in four or five hours."
"But with the weather like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to see them until tomorrow."
Sister Devlin said, then added:
"In addition, Lykins Prisha disappeared while evacuating from the steam airship. The local church received an order that he was suspected of being involved in a fire in Tobesk, so he was temporarily arrested. However,
He left early, and Miss Carina and Miss Sylvia don’t know when he left.”
"I'm afraid he will arrive here before the witches."
"He is the chosen one?"
Shade at the window turned around:
"Yes, I have some information that I haven't informed the Witch Council yet."
He briefly explained the abilities of Lykins Prisha and the power of the ancient angel blood:
"Sister Devlin, it seems that the vampire's prophecy has come true. The evil things under the Pantanal are about to be released. They are just waiting for the stars to reach the correct position."
"Since this prophecy has been informed to the Prophets Association, I think the church will soon determine the real date."
Shade nodded, the haze in his heart was heavier than last night.
Since there was no need to greet Princess Margaret and her entourage who were trapped in the snowstorm this morning, Shade went to Coldwater Port again. Coldwater Port is located in the northwest of the entire Old World, and is quite far from the Pantanal, so this
It didn't snow in this seaport city today, but it was a lively sunny day.
When they arrived at the old lighthouse outside the city, old Mr. Edmond was drying his fishing gear. After seeing Shade, he invited him in for a conversation, and then said with a slight embarrassment:
"The demigod witch you asked the Monastery to help investigate did indeed find some information."
"As long as there is information."
Shade nodded immediately. He had too many questions about Miss Chloe:
"What information was found?"
"her name."
said the old man.
"anything else?"
Shade asked, and Mr. Edmond smiled awkwardly:
"No. But in this way, you can save money, and the deposit can be regarded as the full payment."
"Um......"
Miss Feliana asked Miss Olanode to leave a message and asked Shade to find help from the monastery. Shade did not believe that giving him such a laborious reminder would have no effect at all:
"Excuse me, Miss Chloe's real name is..."
"Chloe Marcus Marquez."
Mr. Edmond pronounced the name in the language of the Fifth Age.
"Marquez?"
Xia De frowned slightly and asked again:
"Sorry, did she ever change her middle name and last name?"
"No, although we can only find out the name, we are very sure that this is her original name and there is no previous name."
Mr. Edmond said with certainty.
"Did I remember it wrong?"
[I remember correctly, the name of Mrs. Marquez is...]
"Marcus Márquez!"
The second half of Miss Chloe's full name is the same as Mrs. Marquez's. This cannot be a coincidence.
"Mr. Edmund, is the appearance I described last time correct?"
Shade asked again, and the old folklorist nodded:
"Yes, it's basically the image you mentioned."
"The man lost in the snowy mountains...the same name...the cowering man never said his name...the gods said that Miss Chloe was taking the last step.
.....The possessed demon I saw for the first time, Miss Black Chloe I saw for the second time...and the incomplete witch reverberation...well...
..."
Shade felt as if he had guessed the truth, but in this way, the troubles faced by the last trip to the snowy mountains would probably be more difficult than the last trip of other time keys.
Because there was still a meeting in the afternoon, Shade did not stay at Mr. Edmond's place for too long. But before leaving, he left a list of ceremony materials and entrusted the old gentleman to help acquire them.
"Let's take a look. The stone heart of the clock stone, the heart of the two-headed red-eyed demon wolf, the tentacles of the ocean servants... are all very troublesome materials. Are you sure you can save enough?"
The old gentleman asked after reading the list, and Xia De nodded cautiously:
"It should be no problem. Please purchase it as soon as possible. It is best to collect all the materials within a week or two. I will accept the premium within ten percent."
In fact, these are only the main materials needed for the ritual to enhance time perception, which can be purchased relatively cheaply in Coldwater Port. For the rest of the materials, Shade plans to entrust Granny Cassandra to help purchase them. After all, what he is looking for is nothing.
Common stuff.
When Shade returned to Tobesk City in the heavy snow, it was already lunch time. He wrapped himself up, stuffed little Mia into his arms, and then went out against the violent snowflakes, spending more than usual.
It took twice as long to reach the Prophet's Association.
While having lunch with Luvia, Shade told the purple-eyed girl about the [Source of Chaos] he found at home last night. Of course, the letter from the astrologer Mr. Euclid a hundred years ago, Xia De
De also did not forget to say.
She was very surprised that Shade had experienced so many things just after not seeing him for 24 hours. So after lunch, she went to Saint Teresa Square with Shade, wanting to see that sage-level item.
Relics.
And just as Shade thought, even though she was prepared in advance, Luvia was still affected when she saw the relic. She suddenly started sobbing, holding Shade's arm and resting for half an hour.
He recovered, but he couldn't explain why he was crying.
Luvia is a fourth-ring soothsayer, and she will be so seriously affected. Shade decided not to use this relic easily. Although it can affect the spirit of the ring sorcerer, it will be even more serious if the ring sorcerer loses control.
It's dangerous.
As for the "Chosen One of the Moon", Luvia and Shade, who had controlled their emotions, had the same idea. Although it is necessary to pay attention to who will stay at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square, the current focus is not on this one.
What happens in the Pantanal is what matters.
"You have to remember, remember, who let you sleep here."
The purple-eyed girl who was still sobbing uncontrollably looked quite pitiful.
The group study meeting that afternoon was not held as scheduled. After resting at home, Shade and Luvia planned to set off together. Unexpectedly, Dr. Schneider came to visit in person and informed them that the study meeting was temporarily cancelled:
"The snow is really too heavy, so please stop running towards me. I happened to be nearby to check on the patient, so I came over to inform you that the study meeting is cancelled."
The doctor was in the foyer, with Shade's help, patting the snowflakes on his head and shoulders:
"This snowfall was really unexpected. I have lived in Tobesk for so long, and the last time I saw such heavy snow was more than ten years ago."
It can also be seen from this point that the climate in Huntington is much better than that in Tobesk.
"I won't tell you any more. I have already met Louisa just now, and I have to go and inform the priest."
The doctor waved to Shade and Luvia standing on the stairs:
"Don't forget about the exam week. Today is the 21st day of the Sleeping Moon. We will have a meeting next Saturday and we will probably know what day our group's exam will be."
He waved goodbye to the two of them, and then rushed out into the heavy snow outside with a grimace.
Sister Devlin had given the information about the Pantanal swamp area to Shade, and Shade and Luvia discussed it at home this afternoon. In the evening, Luvia returned to the Prophet's Association, while Miss Blond Writer risked
Heavy snow is coming.
Her Royal Highness the Princess will not use her body tonight, and Shade continues to ask for knowledge about the fairy tale "Water of Wisdom". He has already copied the story recorded on the stone tablet from the stone tablet at the mountain top sacrificial site,
When Dorothy asked Shade to study by himself that night, she personally took the rubbing, copied it with her own special ink, and asked Shade to take it with him:
"Are you going to do something dangerous again?"
This was the question Dorothy asked Shade before going to bed that night. Shade, who was about to shut little Mia in the closet, hesitated for a moment:
"Yes."
"Then be careful."
The blonde girl sitting beside the bed stood up and hugged Shade from behind:
"I'm not the only one waiting for you to come back."
(Little Mia is running...)
Time came to Sunday, and the rare heavy snow weather covering the western part of the Old World had already made the news in the Tobesk Morning News. What Shade was worried about was whether Margaret and her party, who were taking the train to Huntington, would suffer because of this.
A snowstorm brings other travel troubles.
This morning, he did not use the time key of Fifth Epoch 903 for the last time. Instead, he said goodbye to Dorothy after breakfast and went to Huntington alone. After entering the city from the White River Valley Vineyard in a carriage, he first went
Snake Heart Hospital found Sister Devlin.
Although the nun did not leave the city yesterday, she had a special contact with Granny Cassandra, so she knew the itinerary of Miss Carina and Miss Sylvia.
Although the train will definitely be delayed, it should arrive this morning.
Huntington is an important transportation hub in the eastern part of the Pantanal where trains are inaccessible, and its train station is not much smaller than Tobesk.
Shade and the nun came to the "Mrs. Feeney's Teahouse" near the station early to wait. They were accompanied by Sister Devlin's maid. After all, she was blind and could not travel without the help of a servant.
Shade ordered a cup of local specialty honey grape tea at the teahouse, intending to try a fresh drink, while Sister Devlin ordered a cup of very ordinary black tea. Of course, the charging standards here are not low at all, and they are for drinking tea.
The porcelain tea set proves this.
Sister Devlin did not wear a conspicuous blindfold when she went out, but just covered her eyes with linen. Shade casually chatted with the nun about his impressions of this southern city and the local legends he had heard. While waiting, they
I also heard a lot of new things from the guests who arrived here by other trains and wanted to have a cup of tea to warm themselves first.
