Shade took the initiative to talk to Iluna about the "experiment" they were conducting just now. After hearing about the new properties of thaumaturgy [toy making], the eighteen-year-old girl was also very curious about it, so she was willing to try it.
The curtains just now were raised high again, and then covered Iluna who was sitting on the chair. As Shade cast the spell, the "bulge" in the shape of Iluna that was originally wrapped by the curtains quickly became shriveled,
Until the curtain seemed to be directly covering the chair.
After taking away the curtain, there was only a ceramic toy the size of a finger remaining on the chair.
Shade chased away the curious cat and picked up the toy. What he saw was Iluna with a short stature and her face and clothes painted in oil paint.
"It looks like it was successful."
Fiona looked at Shade curiously, and when Shade restored Iluna, Miss Fiona asked again:
"Miss Bayas, what did you feel just now? Can you observe the outside world during the transformation?"
Iluna, who was still a little dazed, immediately shook her head:
"I seemed to have fallen asleep just now. I could remember some vague images, but they were more blurry than dreams. I could feel the passage of time, but it passed very slowly. This feeling is really uncomfortable. If Xia
If you transform someone for too long in the future, you might be able to drive them crazy."
"But there seems to be no problem with little Mia's transformation every time. So can you take the initiative to restore yourself to the original state during the transformation?"
Shade asked again, and Iluna shook her head again:
"The feeling just now was like curling up in your own warm bed to sleep on a rainy night, obviously awake but unable to sit up."
Shade looked at the cat he was holding, and little Mia returned to her original form from the toy several times. At least from this aspect, this cat was stronger than Iluna.
Shade naturally informed Iluna about the newly installed door at home. However, Iluna had to rush to the church, so she did not stay at No. 6 St. Teresa Square for long that morning.
"Here's this for you. I asked for it directly for you. I'll send it to you after I teach you the other rewards."
However, before she left, she gave Shade a suitcase, and as expected, there was another [Philosopher's Stone] in the suitcase.
So, Fiona watched with great worry as Shade held the cat in one hand and the Philosopher's Stone in the other. But the cat, who was not used to eating stones, would not open its mouth, even if Shade put the stone away.
When it came to its mouth, it just turned its head in disgust and refused to open its mouth.
The rest of the morning ended with playing and chatting at home, but until the end Shade could not let little Mia eat the Philosopher's Stone.
Carina arranged for the maids to deliver lunch, and Shade also tried hiding precious relics in the food and delivering it to the cat. Of course he would not be stupid enough to hide the Philosopher's Stone in front of little Mia, but that cat
Cats can always know exactly which food Shade has tampered with.
So in the end, Shade gave up his plan and thought of asking Luvia for her opinion after she came back.
After lunch, Shade suggested going to the city for a walk. For example, he had not been to the "Regent's Park" in the east of the city.
But Miss Feliana rejected Shade's proposal:
"Since I have finally been able to be by your side for a long time, as a teacher, I naturally have to fulfill my responsibilities.
While you and Fiona were playing with your pet cat in the morning, I looked at the books in your study and the textbooks hidden on the third floor. Shade, don't go out this afternoon, let's go to the study."
"Teacher, but today is Sunday~"
Fiona said for Shade, but seeing Miss Feliana looking at her, the red dragon girl stopped speaking.
Miss Feliana said she would not go out in the afternoon, but in fact until the lights were turned off at home, none of the three of them had stepped out of the house once.
Most of the afternoon was spent on Shade describing what he had learned so far, with Fiona helping to record it. After dinner, it was Miss Feliananna who made suggestions for Shade regarding his studies.
place, and then Fiona also recorded it together.
This is definitely not something that can be completed in a few hours, so it will continue the next day. And the high-intensity brain use made Shade feel more relaxed when he lay on the bed in the bedroom that night than in other cities.
Be tired.
After washing, he just said "good night" to little Mia and turned off the lights to rest. But when the moonlight illuminated the roof of No. 6 Saint Teresa Square and only the sound of even breathing was left in the house, footsteps sounded in the living room, and then someone
He opened the door to Shade's room.
The moonlight shines into the bedroom from the window, and also illuminates Fiona, who is holding a pillow and wearing a red nightgown with her hair loose. She seems to be barefoot, her footsteps are very light, and her big tail is carefully raised to prevent it from rubbing against the ground.
But Shade was still awakened. Just as he was about to ask, he saw Fiona making a silent gesture, then climbed onto the bed, and then hugged Shade.
The bed shook a little.
"I want to try sleeping like this."
Saying this, the rather weighty-looking tail wrapped around Shade's right leg like a snake, and then the softness of the red dragon girl's chest also touched Shade's right arm.
Probably because of her bloodline, Fiona's body temperature was higher than that of normal humans, so when she was held intimately by him, Shade felt as if a ball of flame was leaning against her.
But after that, Fiona closed her eyes and fell asleep deeply while holding Shade's right arm, and did not do anything else.
Shade looked sideways at the side face of the uninvited girl. After a long while, he sighed softly and closed his eyes:
"What on earth is she here for?"
[Probably to complete the unfinished things in Evernight City. 】
"Fiona didn't seem to express this intention when she was in Eternal Night City."
[If Myrna Feliana is not next door, do you think she is just sleeping now? 】
"She" chuckled softly, and Shade stopped talking. He relaxed and closed his eyes, preparing to sink into the familiar dream of the moon.
【besides.】
"She" suddenly said again:
[The red dragon has now opened her eyes and is looking at you. Her eyes are very interesting.]
Shade still closed his eyes and said nothing.
Fiona's eyes were hotter than her red dragon blood, but she just looked at him.
When Shade thought that the night would probably end like this, the tail that "tied" Shade's right leg really started to squirm like a snake.
The tail has flexibility that is disproportionate to its size. The tip of the tail clings to Shade's legs and continues to test upwards until
Fiona also closed her eyes, and her sleeping face with a side face was very calm and peaceful according to "her" description. The two of them were lying on their own pillows, with their faces facing each other, and the moonlight was behind Shade.
, the shadow of Shade’s head is between the two of them.
Fiona's red hair was pressed by herself, and the two of them with their eyes closed seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, but in fact they had already focused their attention on
"Meow~"
The cat next to the pillow made a slight sleepy sound, returning home to sleep after a long absence. It slept soundly tonight.
The next day is a brand new Monday, and it is also the 18th day of the Flower Moon. After the busy life is over, the days seem to become very slow again.
But this morning, Shade was not woken up by little Mia at half past six, but by Fiona getting up at six o'clock.
The Red Dragon girl was very energetic early in the morning. She carefully tied the strap of her nightgown on the right shoulder, then lifted the skirt and got out of bed. Her white feet stepped into Shade's slippers, and then she moved
Very gently lift your body off the bed.
He turned around and looked at Shade, who was still sleeping, with a very gentle expression on his face.
The tail stuck to the edge of the quilt and was lifted up, trying to cover Shade's shoulders, but Shade opened his eyes at this moment.
"You can sleep a little longer."
She didn't feel surprised at all and said in a very soft voice with a smile on her face:
"I'm going to make breakfast. I'll call you when the food is ready."
After seeing Shade nodding, she walked towards the door of the bedroom while arranging her long red hair. It was still early, so Shade didn't get up, but she had a very strange feeling at this time. He and more than one person
The girls have slept together in the same bed, but have never had similar feelings.
【Is this what it feels like to meet a virtuous wife? 】
"She" asked softly. Shade did not answer. Instead, he turned over and looked at the sleeping cat curled up into a ball on the pillow:
"Mia, wake up, it's time to get up."
Shade, who had been woken up by this cat in the past, rubbed the cat's little head evilly, but all he got was a "Meow~" complaint from little Mia with her eyes closed, and a slap on the back of her hand with its tail.
It won't get up until half past six.
It was obvious that Fiona was in a pretty good mood this morning. When Shade came to the living room with little Mia after washing up, she could still hear Fiona in the kitchen humming an unknown tune while preparing.
breakfast.
He went downstairs to get newspapers and goat's milk. When he stood on the steps and looked at the deserted Saint Teresa Square in the early morning, he sighed in his heart that he really preferred this kind of life.
As for whether Miss Feliana knew about Fiona's little action last night, Shade and Miss Long obviously had the same view. Therefore, when dinner was served at home at 7:20 this morning, Fiona took off her apron.
Originally he looked happy, but now he became cautious again.
She thought she already respected Teacher Feliana very much, otherwise last night would have been just like this and that. But when she really faced Teacher Feliana, she realized that she was still the worried girl.
But fortunately, Miss Feliana didn't say much about her "courage", but told Shade an important thing at the dinner table:
"Shad, Fiona and I plan to leave on Wednesday morning."
