"This invitation is really formal, he is very particular about it."
In order to ease the tension in Megan and Audrey's hearts, Shade deliberately made a joke. He opened the invitation letter and saw the formal invitation content written on the left and right sides. The two sides of the paper were scented with gold powder, and were decorated with ribbons and dried flower specimens.
decoration, and the name at the top is "Megan Edwards"——

The 17th of the month of Prayer for Rain, Sixth Era 1854]
The position of the name at the signature even has the personal seal of the fortune teller. It can be said that he has really achieved the ultimate in etiquette. As for the other invitation letter with the name "Audrey Edwards", the content is the same as
Meghan's letter is basically the same.
"Next Wednesday."
When Shade used the time key in 1576 of the Fifth Epoch for the last time, he was still thinking that maybe the matter could be postponed to the next Thursday and he could use another time key. Unexpectedly, the time card was stuck this time.
It was so accurate that it happened to be the final battle before he activated the new key.
He used the key to the Black Mist Camp on Thursday night. And since the banquet was held on Wednesday night, he knew that this decisive battle could not last all day and night.
"Don't worry, I'll go with you then."
It is impossible to escape, as evidenced by this invitation letter delivered directly to your hands. As for the invitation letter saying not to bring people who have nothing to do with the family, Shade doesn't care about this, he will find a way to accompany him.
The brown-haired witch nodded slightly. She behaved so gaffefully. It was entirely due to her years of fear and worry about this moment, which all exploded when she saw the invitation. This is a problem caused by long-term mental illness, Xia
De can also understand.
He wanted to continue to comfort him softly, but Meghan chose another way - holding Shade's neck, then closing her eyes and kissing him.
The wet and cold kiss in the early morning was indeed very different from usual. Even if little Mia on the shoulder was watching this scene very close, she could not disturb the strange feeling brought by the even number of tongues.
Although this sounds strange, it seems that the kiss with Shade gave them new courage:
"We thought about this day a long time ago, but we didn't expect it to come so soon."
"If you are worried, call that Miss Isabella."
Shad said:
"You can't really put you in danger because of me."
"No, I believe in you. I believe that the man Audrey and I choose will keep his promise. Shade, please hold our hands and please never let go."
Mr. Soren Green and Ms. Helena Green had not arrived at the hotel yet, so Shade and Megan went to the second floor together and knocked on the door of Durut Gilles' room. Since Priest August moved in here
, the little girl Rust never allowed the former tomb robber to dine on the first floor, so Shade didn't see them downstairs just now.
But they were already awake. After Shade and Megan knocked on the door and entered, they asked Rusty Edwards if he had also received the invitation.
"What invitation?"
The thin man asked in surprise, and then looked at the girl floating next to him, who blinked at the three of them:
"Invitation card?"
She swayed in the air several times:
"I remembered it, I remembered it. It suddenly appeared this morning and I threw it under the bed."
The invitation letter was found under the bed. The content of the invitation letter was basically the same as that of Megan and Audrey. It was just that at the end of the content, she was not advised to bring special items such as masks. I think Shade was in the illusion last night.
In the oil painting I saw, the eight people wearing masks needed to bring corresponding animal masks.
"So, next Wednesday is the last one?"
Unlike Rusty Edwards, who was still happy, Durout Giles knew what it meant:
"Her father wants her to go back?"
"Yes, absorb her soul and achieve your own power. Just like what we told you before, all of this is expected."
Shade looked at him:
"I will find a way to accompany the lady next to me to the island. When the time comes, will you also accompany Rusty Edwards to the island?"
"The invitation said it was another island."
The man looked at the cheerful little girl and nodded slightly:
"Since you have the courage, I also have the courage. Think of it as the last step of atonement. Back then, I landed on the island and took away things I shouldn't have taken away. Now I go back with her. This can be considered a complete cycle."
Although Meghan still looked down upon this man, she still praised him:
"You made the right choice at the critical moment. Don't be idle these days. I will arrange for people to tell you exactly what to do. Remember, you must act according to our arrangements. This is the only way.
It is possible that both you and her can have a chance to leave the island again."
Durut Gilles nodded slightly, holding the invitation letter in both hands, with a rather complicated expression.
The Green siblings who came to the hotel subsequently had a strange dream last night, and when they woke up, they found an invitation letter in their hands. Although the two were ordinary people, because of this, they had a special relationship with "
The understanding of the power of "ancestors" is not deep, so the reaction of the two siblings was not as big as that of Megan and Audrey.
Now that the final time has been determined, Megan arranged for her girls to pass the news to other witches. She also said goodbye to Shade for the time being, returned to her cruise ship, and sailed to a location near the mouth of the river as planned.
A close-up look at the large-scale ceremony of the Prophets Association.
According to Luvia, the time when the ceremony started was at 8:13 in the morning. But when the time came, Shade and the blonde girl leaning lazily on him did not see anything in the direction of the lake from the window.
No abnormal sound and light effects, not even fluctuations in elements and spirits were observed.
However, Dorothy was not very interested in this ceremony. After hearing Shade mention the invitation letter and the time of next Wednesday, she asked what Shade did not say:
"What are Lesia and I going to do?"
She looked at Shade with firm eyes:
"This matter must be related to us, and I am almost certain that we will definitely be involved by then. Lesiya and I also need to prepare in advance, and the Red Butterfly Day can be placed on that day. Once we act together, you will help us from love
The thaumaturgy - Heart-to-Heart purchased from believers of God will be effective. But apart from that, what else do we need to do? Today is only Saturday, and there are still five days of preparation time. No matter what happens,
We all follow your arrangements."
Shade comforted softly:
"Don't be so nervous. I have been preparing for this day for two months. The plan still needs to be made, but there shouldn't be too many things for you and Lesia. Staying at the Green Lake Hotel, if it is really because of
If a damn accident comes to the island, I will also arrange for someone to protect you. I have many friends here."
"Those powerful sorceresses?"
Dorothy teased.
"And Grace and Helen. On Wednesday, I will arrange for the four of you to stay together, right in the room. From now on, this is in your hands."
He took out the book "Everything Comes to One: The Original Origin" that he carried with him, and handed the book and the angel feather that had two chances to be used to Dorothy. This time, the writer did not refuse.
"Remember, no matter what happens, don't try to merge. Yes, no matter what happens, don't."
Shade emphasized again, and Dorothy pursed her lips and nodded vigorously:
"Since the last time, we have promised you that we will listen to you in everything. The lesson learned last time is enough."
As he spoke, he added with a blush:
"We don't want to be whipped by you again. Lecia said that if the Day of the Red Butterfly is not over by then, we can actually try again."
"Um?"
She pushed Shade gently, and then said softly:
"You should also pay attention to safety."
The Divination Ceremony of the Seer Association was not without any movement, but was postponed. The time was close to nine o'clock, and in the sky south of the Green Lake Hotel, a layer of colorful halo that only the ring magicians could see appeared, followed by elements of miracles and elements of enlightenment.
The chaos directly affected the city from the lakeside.
In order to prevent accidents, the Orthodox Church, which cooperated with the association in conducting the ceremony, arranged for a team of ring warlocks to closely monitor any unusual events in the city that morning. Miss Danister sent a letter to the Green Lake Hotel around ten o'clock,
Ask Shade if he is interested in watching the rare large-scale divination ceremony up close with the college professors.
If Shade was still in the hotel at the time, he might have been interested in going to watch. Unfortunately, he left in a hurry with Rusty Edwards twenty minutes before the letter arrived at the hotel.
Tifa personally sent the letter, and Miss Sylvia's girls who are good at space exploration finally found the hiding place of the wandering soul of the fourth generation's youngest daughter, Maria Edwards.

I feel that if I can't write novels in the future, I might be able to make a lot of money by selling classes and teaching AI painting in my spare time.
