In short, after bidding farewell to the returning girls at Yuewan City Railway Station on Saturday morning, Xia De threw away his glass slippers and returned home.
The glass slipper happened to be in the second room on the second floor of the house. Fiona, who had changed into a maid's dress, was looking at the room with a handkerchief in annoyance:
"Shadow, isn't there anything in your house that needs cleaning?"
The big tail was hanging on the carpet, and the red dragon girl was a little at a loss:
"It's nothing, anyway. I want to tidy up this place, but your maids don't seem to have left any work for me."
She probably misunderstood the identities of Carina's maids, but Shade did not correct her:
"Fiona, you are here as guests, you don't need to work in my house."
He forcibly took the handkerchief from Fiona's hand. The red dragon girl did not insist. She put her hands behind her back and nodded. It seemed that she was very happy no matter what Shade said.
In addition to the corridor, there is also a door on the wall between Room 2 and Room 1 connecting the two rooms. When Shade and Fiona returned to Room 1 together, they saw little Mia lying lazily on the
Basking in the sun on the windowsill, Miss Feliana stood in the living room, looking up at the colorful "Mermaid" oil painting hanging on the wall.
There is no need to worry about the oil painting fading after being framed, so its color remains exactly the same as when Shade first brought it back from Green Lake.
So far, no one has noticed anything wrong with this painting. Shade was curious about what Miss Feliana would say, and she was indeed different from everyone else:
"Did you see the mermaid?"
"Yes, we have met many times and she has helped me a lot."
Shade said softly, Miss Feliana nodded, and then stopped continuing the topic. Although Shade still wanted to talk to her about "desire", since what he got was not a warning, there was no need to ask.
The two ladies said they would stay in this era for about a week, and since they came on Sunday and today is Saturday, that means they don't have much time left.
Today's group study meeting will probably be held on the train. Shade is the only one absent, so he has no other important matters today. After returning home, he tidied up a little and took Miss Feliana and Fiona with him.
After leaving the house, we planned to visit the city of Tobesk, known as the "Pearl of the North", with them.
The prosperity of Tobesk City is somewhat different from that of Yuewan City. Perhaps in the eyes of the demigod and the thirteenth-level witch, the prosperity of the two is far less than the place where they really live, but at least they walked with Shade
When visiting this ancient but modern steam capital, everyone showed full interest.
Wandering the Silver Cross Avenue and introducing them to the Yodel Palace and the Cavendish family, they talked about the history of Delrayon; then they entered the Prophet's Association to find Vice President Mark and took out the [Original Light] and asked for identification.
He also jokingly asked the two ladies if they wanted to perform divination here.
"Okay~"
Miss Feliana, who was dressed particularly young today, said, Shade was startled, and then looked at Vice President Mark who was looking at the cards like a dragon looking at treasures:
"Louvia is on vacation. Vice President Mark, can you arrange for a trustworthy fortune teller?"
"So what do you want to divine?"
In the familiar fortune-telling room on the second floor, Luvia’s colleague Rachel Geller, a female fortune-teller with a third-level ring, asked the blond lady across the table who was so beautiful that she was ashamed of herself. The latter smiled and looked at the station.
Shade on the side:
"love."
Miss Geller glanced at the rumored "Duke's Lover" and recalled Luvia's ambiguous relationship with him, which was widely rumored in the association:
"We are really in trouble now."
After the visit to the Prophet's Association, Shade held hands with Miss Feliana and visited the dessert shops, clothing stores and bookstores on both sides of Silver Cross Avenue with Fiona. Shade gave Miss Feliana a hat
A new beige sun hat, while Fiona got a red woolen scarf.
But lunch was not eaten on Silver Cross Avenue. Near noon, Shade took them in a carriage and went to the "Three Cats Hotel" that he was most familiar with in the Anthem Square in the north of the city.
Although Mrs. Sangmei, the female owner of the hotel, was also stunned by Miss Feliana's appearance, she still made the same joke as before:
"Detective Hamilton, this time you brought two girls who are different from before? They are so beautiful. They remind me of myself when I was younger."
The two witches had no objections to having lunch in a place like this. During lunch, Shade specifically asked them if they were interested in such a "travel", and they both said that would be fine.
"However, Shade, your home is much smaller than I thought."
Fiona said this, and pointed out the most unreasonable point:
"There are so many witches around you. If one day everyone wants to live in your house, even if you add the attic, there won't be enough room for each person."
Shade touched little Mia, who was also brought out. The cat was waiting for Shade to feed:
"Land in Tobesk is very expensive, so it is difficult to buy a house in the city center. However, if all the gold and silver I have on hand are liquidated, it will actually be enough to buy a small manor outside the city."
Mainly because yesterday Miss Sylvia gave Shade a large amount of money alone and claimed that it was a dividend from their business.
"But I prefer the current house. If I need a room in the future, I can find a way to open up a new room based on the existing space. You also saw the hidden 'Room 3' on the third floor.
"
That is, after the Green Lake incident, Shade added a new potion and alchemy workshop to his home.
"The space environment in your home is very strange."
Miss Feliana, who tasted the mushroom fish soup very elegantly, said, and while Shade's heart skipped a beat, she added:
"The space there is extraordinarily stable, even more stable than most places we've seen in our time.
This may be related to the special "doors" you mentioned in your home. Those "doors" are like nails that firmly fix the space. So general thaumaturgy, such as "Feliana's Glass Greenhouse" ink
Even Hughes' mansion spell won't be able to open up extra space in your home, but the relics should be fine."
She looked at Fiona:
"Remember to write Shad a list of relics that would add extra space to his home."
"Yes, teacher!"
The Red Dragon girl, who just now was saying that the chef at the "Three Cats Hotel" was not as good as herself, nodded and said, but she would need to observe No. 6 Saint Teresa Square carefully before she could come up with a better plan.
After lunch, Shade took them to the Lower City Theater not far from the Three Cats Hotel and watched a performance by the "Jasmine Opera Troupe". Then they took the carriage arranged by Carina and went out of the city with the witches.
Carina Manor, and then each riding a horse, the three of them spent this ordinary late summer afternoon in the countryside.
Shade did not ask the maids to follow him, but turned the picnic tools and food into toys and took them with him. So in the afternoon they not only had afternoon tea in an apple forest, but also talked about the local water and soil and the growth of fruits and vegetables.
, towards evening, they even had dinner beside an unnamed creek under the afterglow of the setting sun.
The sumptuous dinner was obtained by Shade using thaumaturgy - [Fiona's Housekeeping Servant]. This was not the first time that he used gems in exchange for food, but this time the dinner was so sumptuous that it lasted for three people and a cat.
Couldn't even finish it.
Fiona is very interested in this thaumaturgy:
"What is the principle of this thaumaturgy? Is the food prepared in advance summoned, or is it connected to the wishing djinn and letting them help prepare the food?"
"Miss Feliana, what do you think?"
Shade smiled and asked the blonde witch. She was sitting sideways on the soft cushion on the tablecloth. Her slightly curled legs were covered by her skirt, but she could still see the brown women's cloth boots and the top of the boots.
Black stockings.
The sun has now sunk to the end of the western horizon. Under the last ray of sunlight, not only little Mia's hair, but also her blond hair seemed to be shining.
Because there was no one around, Fiona on the side had also freed her big tail. The tail with red scales was lying casually on the tablecloth. Fiona would only feel a little embarrassed when Shade looked at it.
Move your position.
Miss Feliana answered the question with a smile:
"I think this is a thaumaturgy related to time."
"Time! Teacher Feilianna, what is the specific time?"
Fiona asked again, but the older witch did not answer. Instead, she looked at Shade, who had her back to the sunset. She seemed a little absent-minded and melancholy at that moment, and finally she just said this:
"It's a good day, Shade."
"What?"
Shade snapped his fingers, and the candles on the candlesticks that were brought with the dinner all lit up. Then he waved his hand again, and translucent bright red butterflies flew out from his hand.
, but did not stay away but spread around them.
Then, Shade pinched his fingers, and the intensity of the surrounding light, which was originally dim and yellow, gradually weakened, until it was completely night. This did not change the brightness of the world. Shade did not have this ability, he just
Briefly affecting the surrounding light.
Finally, he popped out a little silver starlight from his fingertips, and the silver light fell into the creek behind him. As the stream flowed, the starlight spread in the water until there were dots of stars in the entire creek.
A silvery blue light seemed to fall around them like a galaxy.
"Oh~"
Fiona sighed at this scene. Although she was stronger than Shade, she could not have imagined the scene of having a candlelight dinner next to the starry river accompanied by red butterflies at night.
Miss Feliana still looked at Shade tenderly:
"I mean, thank you for your hospitality. I feel even more sorry for Brienne now that she can't come to visit you with us."
