Universal calendar year 1854, the first day of the newborn month, Wednesday morning, started in a slightly awkward but inexplicably harmonious family atmosphere.
The awkward moment was when everyone was woken up by little Mia in the closet early in the morning, but the girls kept pretending to be asleep in a tacit agreement; and the harmony was when Shade returned to the living room after washing up and found the three girls humming songs and making arrangements together.
Today's breakfast.
This is the most important breakfast of the year, and the ingenious hostesses will never hesitate to show off their skills.
While they were making breakfast, Shade, who was disliked for being in the way, was in the living room, sitting on the sofa with a cat and a teacup, reading the newspaper and waiting.
"I thought you would say something after I spent my first year in this world."
He sighed softly in his heart, and "she" answered in Shade's ear with a smile:
[You have found your own way to celebrate, and the past time has passed, and you have to face new challenges, right? 】
"Yes, a more difficult challenge."
For the beginning of a year, this look is really quite leisurely and comfortable. Although Xia De hopes that his life can maintain such a rhythm throughout this year, the dream last night has already foreshadowed
He can't be at ease.
Fortunately, Dr. Schneider is indeed professional. Although Shade invaded the girls' dreams last night, Lecia, Dorothy and Luvia did not notice it. The shy girls never mentioned what happened last night.
It's like everyone was resting in different rooms last night.
At this time, Shade moved his eyes away from the newspaper, looked at this house that belonged to him, and compared it with the dilapidated scene in his dream. Then he looked at little Mia, and he still thought that the cat with amber eyes
Looks cuter:
"But is the cat that appears in the dream actually Luvia's other self, who has really seen it? Or, like Lesia's dream, is the cat in the dream just created by her own thinking?"
Regardless of whether the cat was real or not, that dream was definitely not just a dream. On the night that ended in 1853 and officially began in 1854, the outsider touched the truth of the world. Although it was somewhat unacceptable, he had to face this fact no matter what.
.
He also needs to hold a ceremony to verify the last conjecture and straighten out the sequence of time. After that, a new adventure will also begin. The old year ends and the new year begins; the low circle ends, the middle circle begins, and the new year begins.
The story has begun. Next, he may face more dangers. Fortunately, he is no longer alone.
"So, what else did you find last night?"
he asked softly in his heart.
【Last night’s in-depth contact, you touched the mystery of her soul.】
[Luvia Anat’s other self is entangled by a powerful time curse, and her soul is severely damaged.]
[It is certain that the reason why Luvia Anat is cursed is because of her other self.]
"She" whispered important information in his ear. Shade's hand touched the cat's ears. The cat obediently lay on Shade's lap and waited for breakfast. It had already expected that it would be a sumptuous meal.
"I have known this for a long time. So, her other self has its own soul?"
[Yes, but the essence of the soul is completely consistent with herself.]
These words verified Shade's suspicion all along, so he asked the key question:
"Can this level of soul damage be cured?"
Shade asked in his mind while continuing to look at the newspaper in his hand.
In the newspaper, there was a special report about His Majesty the King's speech in Parliament yesterday morning. The headline on the front page was of course a large photo of His Majesty the King waving his right hand, but Shade could see the smaller half of Lesia's body at the edge of the photo.
Being able to follow her father and appear in a speech to all the people at the end of the year is of great significance to Lesia. And this morning's morning newspaper reprinted the full text of His Majesty the King's speech, making the newspaper thicker than before.
Two editions.
However, the King's speech does illustrate the current situation in Delrayon in 1853, and reading the report is a very meaningful act.
[Using special coins, the time of the currency itself, and civilization attributes can accelerate the healing speed of her soul. The power of inexplicable fate makes every time I witness the story of the chosen one, the healing speed of the other me can be greatly increased. 】
Shade nodded, looked at the busy figures of the girls in the kitchen, and frowned slightly:
"So... is it possible for her to swallow the real Luvia?"
This was what he really wanted to ask, and "she" actually smiled softly:
[She is who she is. Although her other self is special, it is indeed another me. In addition to the suicide reversal, have you ever heard that the Ring Warlock's other self can in turn devour itself? 】
In this way, Shade was relieved that there would be no hidden dangers in the coexistence of the two Luvias. But this also meant that after a moment of leisure, he had to leave for a brand new city. This time, the destination was located in the old city.
The "City of Spring" in the southwest of the mainland - Randall Valley City. On a new trip, you will definitely encounter a new story.
Thinking about things in her mind, she continued to read the newspaper in her hand. But "her" voice did not stop:
【Feeling the spy from fate.】
"What?"
Shade stood up immediately and walked quickly to the bedroom to take out the [Twenty-sided Dice of Destiny]. It was not that no one had divined him in the past, but no one had ever really been able to "see" him. But now that "she" had predicted
The reminder came, which meant that someone was really about to see his true face.
[Don’t be nervous, the prying from unknown sources is just touching the edge of the truth. As long as divinity still resides in your soul, there is no need to worry about someone being able to find you through divination. 】
Shade felt relieved. After sitting down again, he looked out the window:
"Who is spying on me? The church? The Truth Society? Or some other organization?"
There is no answer to this question, but the multiple appearances of the "God Caller" and the fact that he is now recognized as the chosen one with "wisdom and knowledge" are destined to make people try their best to find this thirteen-ring warlock.
real identity.
Shade must be more careful in his future actions.
The first breakfast of the new year was very sumptuous, and the atmosphere at home was also very good, and everyone tacitly agreed not to mention what happened last night. When the breakfast was over, Luvia said goodbye to Shade with a smile:
"There are still some things going on with the association."
Although the Prophet Association also has a holiday during the year-end festival, Luvia, as the association's ring warlock, still has a lot of things to deal with. Of course, through last night's dream, Shade also understood that this was Lesia and Luvia.
Ya made the deal to facilitate the smooth progress of Hongdie Day.
He sent Luvia downstairs, and then went out with Lesia and Dorothy.
This Red Butterfly Day started at about eight o'clock last night and will naturally end at about eight o'clock tonight. Lecia has already arranged all her schedule to spend the first day of 1854.
Although Miss Carina helped cover it up, it was strange for Lesia to not show up all day. Therefore, before lunch that day, Lesia temporarily left Shade and Dorothy, but only for half a day.
As a child, he appeared with Agelina in a carriage.
The little princess was wearing a sky blue dress today with a pink bow on her head. She greeted Shade warmly when she saw him.
Of course, when Lesia called Agelina, she didn't want to add another person to the three people's dating time, but just wanted Agelina to prove that she had been with Lecia today.
So after having lunch in a secret box of a high-end club in the east of the city, Lesia asked Agelina to go find Miss Carina first, and then call her back when they were watching the opera in the evening.
The little princess had a hunch that she would most likely have to watch the door tonight.
All in all, for Shade, the first day of 1854 was quite pleasant. He temporarily put aside his worries, and with Lecia and Dorothy, they visited the city at the end of the year, visiting churches, art galleries, and municipal services.
In the Hall Square, the three of them even went to the Three Cats Hotel. Lecia wanted to see the life of ordinary people in the city on this memorable day.
The day ended at the Queen Maria Opera House. According to the royal family's tradition, the royal family members will go to the opera house to enjoy the opera together on the first day of the new year. In view of the large number of His Majesty's children, it is impossible for everyone to squeeze in
In the same box.
If there was no Shade, Lesia would stay with Queen Diana no matter what. But since the Day of the Red Butterfly was not over yet, after greeting her father, mother, brothers, sisters, and younger siblings, she took Ajili with her.
Na came to the independent box she chose.
Her Royal Highness the little princess bit her lip as she watched her sister and the beautiful blond writer sit together warmly with Shade, while she hugged little Mia and consciously retreated to a side room with the maids.
But before parting that night, Agelina still did not forget to give a year-end gift to Shade, who was a little messy in his clothes. At that time, Lesia and Dorothy were still arranging their clothes in the box and asked
The maid helps with hair styling and cleaning the room.
The little princess stopped the knight who came to retrieve little Mia and gave him an inexpensive gift. It was a holiday greeting card she made for Shade herself. It was made of a small paper spring and when opened, it would pop out and stick to the spring.
The small structure of a smiley face. The inside of the greeting card is made of multi-layered cardboard. By pushing and pulling the paper strips on the side, some pictures can be made to move.
Although the craftsmanship is a bit poor, it does reflect her intentions.
"Your Highness, this is really unexpected. It is my honor."
Shade took the greeting card. This gift was a surprise. While the little princess put her hands behind her back and looked at him with some trepidation, he reached into his pocket again and took out the crystal
Transparent ice crystal flowers (note).
Under the gas lamp, the translucent ice crystal petals shone with clear light. Agelina looked at the flower in Shade's hand in surprise, while Shade said apologetically:
"It is not packed in a gift box in advance, but it can be kept at room temperature without melting for several months. I hope you like it, Your Highness - Happy New Year's Day."
"Happy New Year's Day!"
Agelina was surprised and wanted to take the flower, but after the maid behind her coughed kindly to remind her, she reservedly stretched out her hand and asked Shade to hand the flower to her palm.
"Knight, my birthday is next month, and I will be seventeen."
She looked at the flower and whispered:
"I don't want to invite you to the birthday party. You must come. I want to say that father will get engaged for me probably this year."
"As long as you don't want to marry the other person, I will find a way."
Shade said that this was his promise. But he also knew that Lesia could not let it go. Although she was usually very strict with this sister, Lecia was also very affectionate towards Agelina.
After getting the "promise", the little princess smiled. She continued to lower her head and looked at the crystal clear ice flower in her hand with wide eyes.
At this point, the stranger's first year in this world has officially come to an end. He is walking through the corridors of the Opera House with his cat in his arms. Although he still faces challenges, his pace is no longer as good as when he first came to this world. He was lonely.
And it felt so heavy when I walked through the streets in fear.
