As Lesia spoke, she gently scratched Shade's palm, neither too fast nor too slow:
"I'm not like the detective at St. Teresa Square. I'm very relaxed every day, but I just don't visit my princess."
"I"
"I'm just kidding. I know you're very busy. Have you finished handling the matters at Green Lake?"
Applause and cheers rang out all around, and the maroon horse and rider who crossed the finish line first won the warmest cheers. Of course, it could also be that the nobles who bought the right horse tickets were cheering that their wallets had become thicker.
"It's done. There are still some books left to sort."
Shade answered softly, and Lecia also put down the telescope, looked around, kissed the corner of Shade's lips gently, then covered her mouth with a smile and started a new topic:
"I think Carina should have told you about Agelina."
She looked at her sister sitting on the other side of her, who immediately showed a sweet smile to Shade:
"Good morning, Mr. Hamilton."
Lesia raised her eyebrows:
"Why don't you call me Shade this time? Shade, I know that your perception is very powerful, so I asked you to meet Agelina and see how she is doing. In addition, although I became a ring magician earlier than you,
But obviously you have more experience, so it would be good to give her some advice."
These are all excuses. With Miss Carina here, there is no need for Shade. She is just looking for reasons to meet with Shade.
"Your Highness Agelina, please give me your hand."
After saying that, the two held hands in front of Lesia. The red-haired princess raised her eyebrows again. When Shade felt the warmth of Agelina's soft and boneless right hand, he whispered "She"
” said softly:
[It’s not a big problem. Let her eat less cold food and drink more hot water recently.]
“It’s not a big problem, I eat less cold food recently”
Shade instinctively reread "her" words, only to realize something was wrong halfway through.
"She" smiled softly in his ear, Shade let go of Agelina's hand, and Lesia looked at Shade suspiciously:
"You can even see this? Isn't this some kind of ancient thaumaturgy?"
"Of course not. How could ancient magic have such an effect?"
Anyway, there was nothing much to do today, so Shade spent the morning with the two princesses in the carriage. At 11:30, the three of them returned to the city and had lunch together in a secret club.
During this period, Shade took out two "Butterfly Solitaires" sealed from the Green Lake and Randall Valley areas, and motioned to Lesia to try them.
So Lesia threw the card with the mask sealed directly upwards and "passed" it to Dorothy, while she tried the card with the "dagger" sealed in it.
The dagger comes from the clown Higgs in the ancient fairy tale "The Clown and the Swan". According to the method taught by Shade, Lesia touched the card with her own spirit, and then liberated the power of the card. In a burst of light, the card scattered
It turned into a copper-colored light spot, and then the bloody dagger appeared in front of her.
She stretched out her hand to hold it, and the smell of blood made both Shade and Agelina, who was watching from the side, frown.
However, no matter how Shade looked at it, he felt that liberating the "Butterfly Solitaire" was very close to the appearance when he completely liberated the "Calamity Card". Thinking back to the fact that the "Disaster Card" appeared due to the "Staff of Yggdrasil",
And that weapon is closely related to Luvia, so the "Butterfly Solitaire" may really be the prototype of the "Disaster Solitaire".
"how do you feel?"
Shade asked her, and Lecia walked a few steps in the club room, then suddenly bent forward and lunged forward, her body sprinting five meters as if being accelerated.
"These cards are very good."
Agelina applauded gently, and Lesia restored the dagger into a playing card:
"With the dagger, I can obviously feel that my physical strength and athletic ability have been greatly enhanced. At the same time, the thaumaturgy related to assassination and concealment can be slightly enhanced. The power of this card is really extremely suitable.
My power. With it, it will be much easier to learn thaumaturgy related to the story of "The Clown and the Swan" and even obtain spiritual runes."
Then she asked Dorothy about the situation there. Dorothy, who was working on a manuscript at home, had also tried the power of the mask and came to a similar conclusion.
But Shade is more concerned about whether the butterfly cards can really suppress their fusion tendency. But this kind of thing cannot be felt after one use, so the two cards are stored closely by Dorothy and Lesia.
There should be a conclusion within two weeks.
Shade can find the sealed artifacts of the "Butterfly Solitaire" in the Green Lake area and the Randall Valley area, and of course he can also find them in Tobesk.
Although Lesia has just returned here, she has collected a lot of antiques related to the story in order to learn the power of enlightenment elements. Those antiques are all in her private storage room in Yodel Palace, so she invited Shade in the afternoon
I went with the two sisters to have a look.
Of course, it is impossible for Shade to enter in human form.
"How do I feel, you just want me to turn into a cat?"
Lesia smiled and did not answer:
"Father knows that I am a ring magician. I have my own extra room in the Yodel Palace. The other brothers and sisters cannot compare to me in this regard."
"I used to think that my sister's rooms were her secret study."
Agelina said from the side, staring at Shade, also looking forward to him turning into a cat.
Although Shade finally compromised, when Lesia carried him into the Yodel Palace, Shade unexpectedly discovered that the Butterfly Solitaire had no reaction to any of the antiques that Lesia had collected.
Although Laplace Howard also said that only a small number of antiques are effective, the success of Green Lake and Randall Valley made Shade think that the probability is not that low.
But Lesia didn't seem to care about this, she just wanted Shade to spend the afternoon with her here.
So Agelina was "kicked away" by her as soon as she returned to Yodel Palace. Lesia asked her sister to read a book quickly:
"Have you never even opened one of the textbooks sent by Zarath Academy of Literature? Go and study, Agelina, this will make you stronger."
So the little princess could only turn around and leave with her maids.
"Are you okay tonight, Shade? I have already booked tickets for the opera house. How about going to the opera together tonight?"
When the door closed, Lesia smiled and sat next to Shade from across the coffee table. Shade naturally would not refuse:
"However, since none of the antiques you have here are suitable, let's go to Old John's and have a look. I think he should have what we want."
"Don't say such disappointing things. We have just returned to Tobesk. It's time to relax for a while. Besides, I am a princess of the royal family, so I should enjoy such a life and not always talk about serious things."
She waved her hands, and the maids all left.
Lesia smiled and hugged Shade's neck on the sofa:
"It feels so good to finally be home."
She was about to unbutton Shade's shirt as she spoke, but Shade caught her hand:
"Wait a minute. You avoided me before leaving Green Lake City. I didn't have the chance to ask: Why did you agree to Grace and Helen's request?"
This refers to last Thursday night, Xia Deke still has not forgotten his surprise when he saw the pair of butterfly wings tattoos on his fair back with the help of moonlight:
"You actually agreed to such an outrageous thing?"
"You actually still remember this, so tell me why we don't agree?"
Her Royal Highness the Princess looked at him with a smile in her emerald green eyes:
"The story of the two sisters Grace and Helen is more painful and tortuous than the writer and I. You know, although she and I agree that tragedy can sublimate the story to a certain extent, we both hate tragedy in reality.
Ending. You reversed the fate of the butterflies without giving them an ending, so Dorothy and I helped them."
She winked at Shade:
"And let's see, weren't you also very happy that night? Why did you regret leaving the bedroom?"
"Of course not regretful."
Shade shook his head, and then told Lesia what happened to him, Grace and Helen on the snow in the forest after they left Green Lake City.
"This is the right thing to do. Since you have chosen to take them back from the hands of fate, you must shoulder your responsibilities. Speaking of which, I quite like Grace and Helen. It would be nice to become a family."
She sniffed Shade's neck:
"It looks like you had a great time this weekend. Megan and Audrey, those two great witches, did you succeed too?"
Shade didn't know how she saw it, but he couldn't lie, so he admitted it:
"Yes."
"You really like sisters."
Her Royal Highness the Princess teased, but she was not angry:
"Okay, okay, now that you've finished talking about other girls, you can finally turn your attention to me, right? I'm the princess of the kingdom. Isn't it okay for me to have a secret meeting at home with my lover? I'm a noble of the kingdom.
Isn't this what a decadent life is? I have experienced so many dangers in the Green Lake area, so it's time for me to enjoy it."
After saying that, he reached out to Shade's button again.
Secret meetings with Her Royal Highness are always so pleasant. The warm sunlight can only illuminate the back of the sofa, and the dazzling light makes the afternoon dreamy and confusing.
It's just that although he is facing one person, Shade will always have the illusion that he is facing two people. Maybe that is not an illusion at all. After each has the identity of the chosen one in a quarter of the space, Dorothy and Lesia
Their relationship became even more wonderful, and their ability to exchange souls wantonly gave them new tricks.
It’s just that this kind of power that belongs to them was used by Lesiya to an effect that made Shade a little unhappy. When the dim sunset illuminated the flowers in the flowerpot on the windowsill, Shade lay holding Lesiya in his arms.
While on the sofa, he asked doubtfully:
"Just now, at the end, at the very last moment, what did you do with the space power you suddenly used?"
Shade could only detect that she had used strength, but did not know what she was doing specifically. There was no abnormality around her.
The red hair was wet with sweat and stuck to the side of her cheeks. The princess with a blush on her face listened to Shade's heartbeat and said in a lazy tone:
"Give half to Dorothy."
The tone sounded like he was talking about something ordinary.
"What half. Wait, you can't be."
Shade wanted to sit up, but was pushed down by Lesia again.
"No, please don't speak yet, my knight. The vibration of your chest when you speak makes my eardrums a little uncomfortable."
She moved her head slightly:
"This is a matter between the three of us. Although Dorothy is not here, she has always been here. If you don't like it, we don't have to do it in the future, but this is the first experiment after all, and we all want to try it.
Is it really interesting? Yes, it is really interesting. Do you want to hear how Dorothy feels? Oh, I can guess your current expression even without looking at your face."
"you."
"We always do, don't we? Or, knight, do you still want to punish your princess?"
She smiled happily, and the small feeling of happiness in that moment was really more important than anything else. She raised her head and looked at Shade with her green eyes. There was a smile on her face, and there was something in her eyes that even made Shade
Feelings that no one can fully understand:
"Shadow, you are the light of my life, the fire of my desire, my sin, my soul. The luckiest thing in my life is that Dorothy met you at Dr. Schneider's. I
I can't imagine that one day we will be separated, and I can no longer bear to live without you. Shade, Shade Suellen Hamilton, my love, I would rather give my soul to you. You know, in the end, I
