Amidst the sound of rushing water, a white arm stretched out from the right side of the beautiful head in the water.
The two palms on the left and right jointly held up the small yellow flower, bringing it to the same height as the ground of the pier. The wet and beautiful face looked up at Shade:
"Use tonight's story as the stage, before dawn, with you as the protagonist, show me the story of your desire."
Purple eyes looked at Shade emotionally:
"On this turbulent land, use your desire, the burning desire that can never be satisfied, to perform the most gorgeous drama for me."
"Desire? What kind of desire?"
"Any desire is fine."
She stared at Shade, who was gradually bending over:
"I can see through your heart, I can see your desire. This request is not difficult for you, right?"
"What if I can't do it?"
Shade asked. Because of the action of leaning down and reaching out to twist the flower, his face was now quite close to Desire's face. It could even be said that it had never been closer.
And from this distance, in addition to seeing more carefully, the beautiful face with some snowflakes falling on its head, which seemed to be a mixture of the facial features of all the girls he knew, he even felt in the smell of the tidal water of the Elrond River,
I smell the perfume on [Desire]’s face.
That's the smell of a witch.
"As expected, she also imitated the smell of my favorite perfume."
Shade stretched out his hand and pinched the small flower held by his two palms, and quickly retracted his hands to avoid direct contact with desire in any form.
The latter also retracted his hand, and his two arms re-entered the water like water snakes:
"If you don't do it, the next time you take a shower, I will appear in the water and give you a kiss."
She smiled softly, looking at Shade, with her head back, moving towards the distance of the lake in the snow:
"Of course, you can also choose to never take a shower again in your life. You are an interesting soul. I look forward to our next meeting."
The face gradually became blurred in the night, until it completely disappeared.
Boom!
Shade heard the sound of something hitting the pillars under the dock. He tilted his head and looked, only to see that it was the perfume vial. The perfume vial was filled with liquefied crystals of desire. After being thrown into the water, it could summon [Desire]. Shade
I thought I could get rid of this relic this way.
He bent down and picked up the perfume bottle, and then picked up the little yellow flower that caused all kinds of distracting thoughts in his heart just by smelling the fragrance. Just like the winter flower planted on the Heart of Stone, it took a lot of energy.
Turned into a toy.
"In this way, the Flower of Four Seasons is complete. Oxenfurt is dead. Even in the worst case scenario, the guardians are hopeless. At least I still have a third candidate to choose from."
[Aren’t you trying your best to avoid such an ending? 】
"Yes."
Shade looked up at the dark night, letting the snowflakes fall on his cheeks. Even though there was no moon tonight, the effect of the thaumaturgy [Shadow of the Moon] still ensured that Shade was bathed in the moonlight at this time. Cherubeus was right,
Playing that game with the devil can indeed give Shade more:
"But be prepared for any situation, this night."
He shook his palm:
"It's just the beginning."
As the witch raised her hands and shouted loudly, a vortex of gold and black suddenly appeared in the snow amidst the sound of shattering glass.
At the same time, in the No. 3 performance hall of the Wilde Opera House in downtown Randall Valley, a violent wind suddenly blew up on the calm indoor stage. The exact same golden and black space vortex was formed on the already drawn five-pointed star ceremony array.
Appeared above, and then the figures of Shade and Miss Sylvia leading the horse emerged from the vortex.
"Shad!"
Luvia, who had been waiting here for a long time, rushed up almost immediately. Seeing that although Shade was in a sorry state, his life was not in danger, she opened her arms and hugged him.
As for Dr. Schneider, he didn’t want more people to know that he was in the Randall Valley area, so he didn’t come back with Shad. Of course, this was also because the doctor heard that there was a one-thousandth chance of an accident in space teleportation, so he considered
Due to my lucky situation, I made a very wise choice.
The doctor was staying at Oxenfurt Manor at this time, and went to the mansion to retrieve the demon summoning information that Oxenfurt had stolen from the old captain, and to clean up the traces of the battle here.
After swallowing the Stone Mirror Demon tonight, he has more unique abilities. After dealing with Oxenfurt Manor, he will ride a horse in the direction of the Night Temple. If he can join Shad later, this night
Doctors can play more roles.
"It went smoothly. Although there were some mistakes in the process, Shade still solved the demon."
Miss Sylvia promised Shade to keep Dr. Schneider's secret, so she just explained the situation a little tiredly, and then went to rest first with Miss Rita Swift who arrived. Shade closed his eyes and almost
Within half an hour of being unconscious, she had blocked more than one enemy outside Oxenfurt Manor. Therefore, although her health was much better than Shad's, she still needed to rest.
"I'm fine. Oh, Luvia, can you let go of me first?"
Shade's embarrassment at this time could not be solved by changing his clothes. After the hug ended, the girls who stayed behind at the Golden Dawn brought the prepared healing potion to help Shade heal his injuries.
Although Shade claimed that there was nothing wrong, and the potion prepared by the doctor in advance to treat the influence of demons had played an excellent role, after careful examination, Shade's current condition was still worrying.
Unfortunately, it was already close to midnight, and Shade had no time to take a good rest. Luvia's divination showed that a major earthquake, an important node in the distortion of the earth, would occur after the early morning, and one and a half hours after that major earthquake
Hours later, the completely crazy guardian will also appear on the ground.
He was naked from the waist up, sitting on the sofa in Miss Benanis's office. A cart filled with potions and late-night snacks was parked next to the sofa. Tifa and another maid from Miss Carina were treating his injuries. Already
Little Mia, who had been transformed into a toy all night, was restored by Shade. She was now lying on Shade's lap, looking at the food on the coffee table.
The lights in the office were quite bright, and Luvia tried not to look at the scars on Shad's body. She sat next to Shad, and told Shad his current situation with the collected information:
"The situation in the city in the first half of the night is currently relatively stable. Because of the experience of the Battle of Fort Midhill, the church's arrangements for the city defense battle this time are much more complete than those at Fort Midhill. The enemies outside the city have been
The enemies that were intercepted outside the old city wall and appeared in the city were annihilated one by one by the squad patrolling in a network structure."
"Is there any news from Iluna?"
Shade asked, Luvia shook her head:
"Not yet, but don't worry about her. Mr. Pierre Granger, the Thirteen-ring Warlock of the Church of the Sun, the 'Earth Shaker', is staying in the city. Princess Margaret and Prince William are also in the Church of the Sun, where is the most important place.
It’s safe. However, when a big earthquake occurs, and the Church of the Sun and Earth and the Prophet Association jointly cast spells to determine the core source of the earthquake, Iluna will probably take action.”
Although the fragments of the psalm currently held by various forces do not clearly indicate the location of the chosen ceremony, the fragments held by the Peace Church point to the center of the turbulent earth. Therefore, when the great earthquake occurred
Finally, the answer will naturally be revealed.
"Shade, take the medicine,"
Tifa handed Shade a cup containing a brown potion. The smell of the potion was a bit pungent, so this time the greedy cat had no intention of taking a sip.
"Okay. Oh, this tastes really good."
The temperature of the potion was just right, and Shade drank it all while holding his breath. Luvia asked Tifa worriedly:
"How is he doing? Can he continue to fight with high intensity?"
"Ordinary external and internal injuries are no problem, but the state of the body being corroded by abnormal power is very troublesome. According to Shade, it is the corrosion of individuals with souls in the demonic realm. We do not have good treatment for this kind of injury.
means."
The black-haired maid said worriedly.
"But didn't I take another potion?"
That is the magic potion brought by Dr. Schneider.
"Yes, so you can still move normally now, you just feel slightly sleepy."
The black-haired maid continued:
"That potion seems to be specially used to deal with this kind of demonic erosion damage, but it takes time for the effect of the medicine to take effect, at least an hour. Shade, do you feel now that the recovery of your spirit is slower than usual, and your heart...
The beating speed is very irregular."
Under the gaze of Luvia's purple eyes, Shade could only nod. No matter how strong his physical fitness was, he was still a mortal body, and he could not completely influence the realm of ancient evil spirits and demons on mortals.
Carry it down.
The original fire has the power to protect the body, but unfortunately the current original fire is not complete enough.
"Meow~"
Mia meowed softly on Shade's lap, but no one paid attention to the cat now.
"An hour is an hour. The big earthquake hasn't happened yet. I have time to wait."
Shade said, Luvia and Tifa looked at the clock in the corner. The time was twelve-thirteen midnight, which was actually not far from the last time.
"Continue to talk about the current situation."
Shade reached for his shirt and jacket, wanting to put on his top, but Tifa got Shade's clothes one step ahead, and then worked with other maids to help Shade get dressed.
Shade has always been quite resistant to others helping him get dressed, but it was hard to object to their approach at this time.
