The familiar white mist appeared around Shade as he stepped forward. Entering the adventure of the past time gave Shade a sense of relaxation that he no longer needed to think about or care about anything at the current time.
Continuing to move forward, the scenery of Eternal Night City in the Fifth Era slowly opened.
The rain was pattering, and the night drowned out the glowing mist. However, this time Shade did not appear on the rainy streets, but appeared directly on the terrace of the central castle in the city, known as the "Place of Dusk"
area.
In the semicircular area, the wall with the straight edge is a closed double metal door, and in the two corners are floor-standing candle lights with the color of the sunset.
Under the curved wall near the periphery of the terrace is a small tent surrounded by three-color moonlight thorn bushes.
At this time, the tent was open, and the big-tailed red dragon girl was sitting on those soft quilts, wearing Shade's coat and a pair of small glasses that she didn't know where they came from. She lowered her head under the illumination of the flame at the tip of her tail.
.What is knitted with a sweater.
"Um?"
Although the picture is very warm, it does not conform to Shade's understanding of this place.
This scene once made him think that the final test of Eternal Night City was to break the illusion. But then Fiona noticed his appearance and hid the thing she was knitting behind her in a panic. When she stood up, she almost knocked down the tent.
The picture made Xia De understand that everything in front of him was real.
After snapping her fingers, the three-color moonlight thorn disappeared, and Fiona also walked out of the tent.
She didn't say anything, and directly opened her arms and hugged Shade. Shade thought that she had been here alone for too long and was feeling sad because of loneliness, so she hugged her too, but she didn't expect the red-haired
The girl then pushed him again and kissed him directly.
This was the first time that Shade had encountered this kind of welcome.
"I said I would come back."
Until Fiona was finally willing to let him go, Shade still thought that the red-haired girl was depressed and led to this series of actions. Fiona didn't say anything, but when she wanted to reach out and try to pick off Shade,
clothes (note), Xia Decai finally realized that something was wrong, so he stopped her:
"Wait a minute, what are you going to do?"
"Really~"
The witch lady of the fifth era complained softly and gave up her actions:
"Welcome back, Shade."
The topic seemed to be finally getting on the right track, but the Red Dragon Witch suddenly twitched her nose and sniffed at Shade's neck, and then asked quite worriedly:
"Why does it smell like evil spirits and demons corroding it?"
She pressed her hand on Shade's left chest to feel her heartbeat, and then frowned deeply:
"Shade, what did you just experience?"
"I met an ancient evil spirit. The Stone Mirror Demon - Goethe."
Shade said honestly that this is not very taboo knowledge for the powerful witch of the fifth era.
"Isn't that one of the oldest demons mentioned in the teacher's book?"
Fiona became even more worried.
"Oh, don't worry, my friend has resealed it. I suffered some minor injuries and am recovering now."
Shade patted his chest. Fiona also saw that Shade was recovering, but she was still worried about him encountering a demon:
"I don't have the knowledge of teachers and teachers' teachers. I can't solve your problems in the blink of an eye like them."
She said a little lowly, but Shade no longer wanted to continue this topic, so he asked with concern:
"Speaking of which, why didn't you sleep this time?"
As he spoke, he motioned to Fiona to pack the luggage in the tent together.
"I slept for too long the first two times and I wasn't sleepy at all. So after waking up early, I found something to do for myself."
The red-haired girl yawned softly and ladylikely:
"I discovered that the curtain made by Teacher Feliana, although you need to constantly try your luck to go to a place you have never been to, the curtain can allow the user to unconditionally return to the place where you have been."
She took advantage of Shade bending down to turn the quilt into a toy, and took the time to put the things she had not finished knitting behind her:
"So I went to coffee shops, watch shops and art galleries to see if I could buy anything useful."
"Anything gained?"
Shade asked curiously, Fiona shook her head regretfully:
"I recovered part of my lost luggage and bought some miscellaneous items such as wool, but it was not without success. I finally remembered what Teacher Feliana and Teacher Olan Nord wanted to use.
At this price, we can obtain the territory of the future school from the god we are about to meet."
"Very good!"
Shade was overjoyed. He didn't expect that the second major event tonight would be solved so easily. If Fiona could remember everything, he wouldn't have to work hard to find a way to make the old god
Agree to Miss Feliana’s request:
"What's the price?"
"Miss Feliana found a treasure from the First Era that records the stories of the ancient gods. That is a gift that even the gods cannot refuse."
Unexpectedly, the "treasure" mentioned in Miss Danister's information turned out to be real, so "evil beast" and "story" were both wrong answers.
"Then the story on that stone slab is"
Shade asked expectantly. Fiona thought for a moment and said softly:
"The ancient god of Silver Moon came to the material world in the incarnation of a saint, and together with the sun god, defined day and night. For the [God of Night] we are about to face, this is the most suitable gift."
Shade's smile suddenly froze.
If he remembered correctly, among the treasures that Miss Danist described as being collected by St. Byrons in the Sixth Age, there was the stone tablet that Fiona mentioned at this time. Miss Danist even said that she would wait until
When Shade reaches the twelfth ring, you can take him to see the stone slab.
And the obvious fact is that if Fiona at this time in the fifth era gave the slate as a gift to the God of Night they were about to meet, then there would be no reason for that slate to be in the sixth era.
The Era is still in the collection of St. Byron's Comprehensive College.
In other words, although they have not yet opened the door of the Twilight Place and entered the hall, Shade already knew that Fiona would fail.
"What's wrong?"
The red dragon girl also saw that something was wrong with Xia De. Because it involved things in the future, Xia De couldn't go into too much detail and could only answer simply:
"There is a high probability that something will go wrong with this transaction. Miss Feliana and Miss Olanode, do you have any backup plans?"
Then it was Fiona's turn to frown:
"I remember that there should be one, but I only remember that the backup plan exists, and I don't remember the specific content."
And this time, it was the last time that Shade came to Eternal Night City. He had no time to wait any longer. Even if he was willing to fail this mission and leave by himself to give Fiona more time to recover her memory, the Red Dragon girl would definitely
I don't want to be left here alone.
She would rather face failure with Shade.
It is very convenient to use [Toy Making] to pack luggage. The two of them gathered the things they wanted to take away while chatting. Only the ancient "Book of Dragons" needed to be carried. Of course, Shade would leave at any time, so Fei
Oona carries it on her back.
In addition to the things she knitted, Fiona also secretly stuffed Shade's coat into her small bag while Shade wasn't paying attention. When Shade turned around, she pretended to wrap the night curtain around it.
Place it around your waist.
But in fact, after Xia De put away his things, he also thought about his clothes, but he did not ask for them:
"Let's go, no matter what, we have to face the next result."
Shade said, reaching out and pressing his chest. At this time, Mia was stored in the form of a toy in the inner pocket of his coat. She was about to face the gods. Shade had no intention of letting the cat out.
He was just thinking that even if he failed to help Miss Feliana achieve her goal this time, he would at least send Fiona out of here safely. Life is only once, and the opportunity to try to make a deal with the gods is not just once for the great witch.
And since among the three possible intelligences obtained in the Sixth Era, the "treasure" option is obviously no longer possible, so among the "interesting stories" and "ancient evil beasts released", Shade is more inclined to go forward.
one.
Because he really couldn't imagine what kind of ancient evil beast would appear here.
"Please wait a moment."
Fiona stopped Shade again. She knew that Shade's appearance in Yongye City this time was the last time. And because he could set off immediately after arriving this time, the forty minutes were delayed by several seconds.
Minutes are nothing:
"That, me."
Thinking of what I had just done, I blushed a little, so what I originally wanted to ask if we could meet again turned into other words:
"Do you need me to bring anything to Miss Feliana and Teacher Olanode?"
Although she was annoyed that she was not honest, Fiona was still very satisfied with this issue. If she really couldn't take back a word, she was very sure that even if she completed her mission to Eternal Night City perfectly, the two ladies
You will also be quite dissatisfied.
"This one"
To be honest, Shade really hasn't thought about this issue. During this period of time in Randall Valley, he has been entangled in the issue of demons and guardians. Even if he considers the past story, he only thinks about Fiona's safety:
"I wish them good health and I believe we will meet again one day."
There is no need to use your own words to overly influence the future.
After Shade finished speaking, he added:
"Fiona, we will meet again one day, I believe this very much."
The tip of the big tail behind the red dragon girl gently tapped the ground:
"I will also remember our encounter. I hope that the next time we meet, it won't be many years apart. Even if it is many years apart, it's okay. I know from Teacher Olan Nord that you are not like us, but since we span the long river of time,
We can all meet. I think fate must have given us a special relationship. We will meet again."
