Finally, the group stopped next to a mountain stream and set up camp on the pebble beach. This time, Shade did not use thaumaturgy, and the maids and ladies set up a temporary camp. The horses were tied aside, and the werewolf
The coma effect was applied again. There were no trees above the stream, and the weather outside the city was very good. The clear moonlight illuminated Shade, who was supporting the witch and sitting on the cushion beside the fire:
"Take a rest first, don't worry."
Miss Belindel said softly "Hmm" and leaned on Shade's shoulder without saying a word. Miss Matilda beside her always felt as if her master deliberately chose this posture, but because she couldn't see it because she was covered by her blond hair,
She couldn't tell what was weird about the expression on half of her face.
"Mr. Watson, do you really have any idea?"
She asked anxiously, and Shade nodded:
"It will take some time for you to go to the parliament and wait for someone. In this case, it is better to ask Miss Belindel to go directly to the parliament. Maybe you can use the power of the parliament."
"No, I won't go. I won't let them see me like this."
The translucent right shoulder was covered by the coat draped around her body, and the disheveled hair covered the shining right cheek. Even though she was still weak at the moment, she still would not allow this kind of thing:
"This look is really ugly."
Miss Matilda looked at Shade as if asking for help. Shade shook his head:
"No need to go, I have a solution. But I have to leave for a while, please wait until I come back."
But the witch with the fat-red birthmark between her eyebrows suddenly held Shade's hand:
"No, don't leave, okay."
The voice was weak. When the surprised Shade lowered his head to look at her, Bella Belindel, whose face was half covered by her hair, also happened to look up at him.
There was some meaning in the golden eyes that was difficult to distinguish. The fragile lady looked at Shade at this moment, making her look weaker than ever.
"I'll be back soon, in about half a minute."
He promised, looking at Miss Matilda. The maid then reached out to help her master up from Shade's arms, but Miss Belindel pushed her weakly, and then she reluctantly agreed to be supported by her.
Without Shade, the "Calamity Cards" could not function, so Shade could not leave for too long. Until Miss Matilda helped her sit down again, Miss Belindel still looked at Shade.
"I'll be back really soon, and I should be able to figure it out when I get back."
Although this sounds outrageous, not only the witch, but also the three maids did not think he was lying. Not to mention that he had just forced back the nine-level warlock at the seventh-level level, but Miss Belindel saw "Miss Charlotte"
"The attitude shown after reading some of the information also shows that Shade is absolutely reliable.
After once again promising to come back soon, Xia De hurried into the forest. The witch beside the fire said to her maid:
"Matilda, my fortune teller."
"Miss, it's time like this"
"Only divination, you can never give up at any time."
The maid took out the deck of cards for the witch. At this moment, Miss Belindel no longer had the ability to shuffle or cut the cards. She just casually turned over the first card on the pile and saw the "Pocket Watch" card:
"Is he going to use the power of time to heal me? Is he going to prepare private casting materials?"
The voice sounded again in the grass. Shade just said it would take half a minute. The time had passed, and he came back as if he had experienced a battle.
(Little Mia is running.)
Thirty seconds ago.
"May the World Tree protect me in infinite time."

After confirming that none of the ladies in the stream camp could see him, Shade took out the [Key of Yggdrasil] and inserted it into the door-shaped metal pendant. The thick key seemed to have been shrunk.
Entering the keyhole, which was only slightly larger than the eye of a needle, and as Shade turned the key, the familiar white mist appeared behind the door that opened.
He reached out and touched the white mist——
[Outlander, please note. A message from the "Father of the Infinite Tree": You are allowed to carry an additional relic this time. 】
"Only one this time?"
So he chose the [Perfume Vial of Desire] without hesitation, and when Shade completely stretched his fingers into the white mist, as the white mist surged out and engulfed him, the door and the remaining belongings on his body all fell to the
There are fallen leaves on the ground.
【Outlander, you have stepped into the "corridor of time".】
[Message from the ancient god "Father of the Infinite Tree":]
[The past life, the sixth era, the old continent, the city of the end, Tobesk.]
[Event: Tobesk, the Last Era.]
【The duration is arbitrary (4/∞).】
【You have obtained additional information.】
【You have stepped into a history that does not exist.】
[The figure of the father of the infinite tree is watching you.]
[Note that during this exploration, you cannot leave the area of Saint Teresa Square. 】
[Note, you are allowed to bring any casting materials into this period of time. 】
[Note that you can return to the "now" time by defeating any powerful enemy with the Time Key. 】
After confirming that the familiar information had not changed, Shade stepped forward in the white mist and returned to his dilapidated home. He covered his forehead and adapted to the environment for a while, then staggered out of the room while holding on to the wall, following the creaking sound.
The stairs leading to the first floor were covered with black stains and mildew.
The gravel piled up into a small mound in the hall next to the door. After struggling to push open the door that was stuck by the deformed door frame amidst the harsh sound, Shade could not help but narrow his eyes because of the sand that was brought in from the crack in the door by the strong wind.
He opened his eyes, and the pain from the gravel hitting his face actually made him feel a lot more awake.
The door could not be fully pushed open, and Shade could only step out from the crack of the door. The dusky sky, the square with rolling gravel, and the nearly half-destroyed Saint Teresa Square building. Everything was still the same as before, and time seemed to have never stopped.
Not flowed here.
Looking at the strange black sun again, Shade took out the silver pocket watch in his pocket, and then looked at the palm-wide luminous rune carved on the ground under his feet:
"Adele Isabella."
He read out the name, then took two steps back, watching the great witch standing up slowly with her skirt lifted up in the soft white light emitted upwards by the runes, gradually turning from a phantom into a real entity.
For Shade, it was only a week since they last met, but for the witch in the apocalypse, time seemed to have passed in an instant and eternity. She raised her head, and Shade saw the tear mole in the corner of her eye again. The witch endured seeing it again.
The joy of this strange man showed a gentle smile to Shade:
"Shad Hamilton, the man chosen by Anat, the man blessed by time, you have indeed appeared again."
The dress on her body was left behind when Shade left last time. Although he didn't leave many daily necessities at that time, Miss Isabella's image this time was obviously much better than last time:
"Nice to meet again, Miss Isabella."
Shade also greeted:
"I need your help!"
The witch tilted her head slightly and immediately smiled:
"My time has come to an end, and the only meaning left in my life is to stop Luvia Anat and help you. What help do you need?"
Like the long-haired Luvia, she cannot reveal the story of the destroyed past at will, so Shade's inquiry must also avoid this point:
"She was shrouded in abnormal light, so much so that she was about to be assimilated into light. An unlucky girl encountered this problem. Is there any way to save her?"
"Have you arrived at Moon Bay?"
Sure enough, she understood Xade's question immediately, frowned slightly and nodded:
"There is a way. The power of parliament can expel this anomaly, but it requires a collective meeting of the witches, and it takes time to convene at least two-thirds of the members. The treatment process is at least a week, and it is very painful. Other than that, you can
Let’s solve this challenge first, and then we’ll go to the house to talk.”
"OK."
Shade said as he turned around and was about to take action, but Miss Isabella stopped him again:
"You once said that you can't take anything away from this time except cards."
Shade tried it.
"So I can't write down the knowledge I know and have learned and give it to you. Although I have also learned knowledge instillation, I have always been opposed to such a learning process. Every time you show up in the future, I will try
I’ll teach you some new time magic tricks on the spot, and then you’ll spend a month practicing them yourself. Did you learn the ‘Adele’s Time Standstill’ last time?”
She didn't know about the "Witch's Reverberation" and only thought that she had given part of the knowledge to Shade, but Shade still needed to learn thaumaturgy on his own.
"Yes, I learned it."
Shade squinted slightly and looked at the gravel floating between the two of them. A small piece of sand immediately became still in the air.
Miss Isabella smiled:
"Very good, you are indeed very talented. It's a pity that I have never met you in my own time, otherwise I would be willing to let you become my apprentice."
She shook her head, her long golden hair flying in the air with the yellow sand:
"This time I will teach you a new thaumaturgy. After all, you only have seven rings now. Time-stopping and other consuming thaumaturgy are not suitable for you. But before we officially start, please answer me a question: What do you think about time?
What categories can power be divided into?”
"Forward, backward, stationary, control flow speed."
Shade said that although there is not much research on the power of time in the basic courses of St. Byrons Comprehensive College, he has also read some books and the theoretical part is absolutely no problem.
"This answer is not wrong, but in my opinion it should be: affecting the past, affecting the present, and affecting the future. What they represent are the three major sources of time thaumaturgy: returning to the past, stopping the present, and seeing the future. But now
Seeing the future is not divination, divination is to straighten out the thread of fate, we are peering into time."
Seeing Xia De thoughtful, she chuckled:
"With the power of a thirteenth-level witch, I am able to use these three fundamental time magic arts. After the end of the world, I was promoted to a demigod when time collapsed and all things were destroyed."
