Chapter two hundred and eighty sixth unexpected power
"So, Shade, is this the reason why you came to me?"
It was still a seemingly ordinary Saturday after the disaster, and the time had reached eleven o'clock in the morning. In the divination room on the second floor of the Prophet's Association on Silver Cross Avenue, Shade sat face to face with Luvia, holding his well-behaved cat.
The association was very dark. The purple-eyed fortune teller had a tea cup in front of him and held the fortune telling letter that Shade had just filled out at the front desk in his hand. He asked rather troubledly:
"Do you want me to emphasize it again? Shade, I already said it last time, your cat is really a normal cat."
"Meow!"
The soft orange cat squirmed happily in Shade's arms. It liked being held by Shade, especially when going out.
"No, fortune telling Mia is still an excuse."
Shade, who looked a little troubled, shook his head.
"Then why did you come to me? I thought that after shooting the city's police chief, you would choose to go home and hide for a few hours."
Luvia joked and put down the page in her hand.
"Two things. The first thing is that the doctor asked me to inform you that the study will be suspended for a week. As you know, the doctor's bulimia patient became the container of the evil god. Now the doctor is under investigation, so the study will be suspended."
Luvia nodded and brushed the strands of hair around her ears:
"I'm very happy that the doctor did not make any mistakes this time. It was indeed the right decision to let you follow him. Then go and inform others. Looking at your troubled expression just now, I thought you knew something like this again.
Something like an evil god.”
The Prophet's Association is also very busy right now. As an official ring magician organization that cooperates with the Five Gods Church, the Prophet's Association is also involved in the investigation of the "Second Coming of the Evil God in the Summer of 1853 in the Universal Calendar" because they have the most and the best
fortune teller.
Luvia is very busy now. The association has given her some jobs that do not require her to appear in front of the Orthodox Church. She is much busier than Shade, who is nominally a detective but more like a "freelancer".
"Don't be ridiculous, Luvia. You also know that I had just left Queen Mary Street before meeting you."
"What, does killing make you feel guilty, or setting fire makes you uncomfortable? Do you need me to comfort you?"
The purple-eyed fortune teller smiled and joked.
"Oh, Luvia, who do you think I am? Here's the thing..."
Shade waved his hand, took out [Origin·Balance] from his pocket, then knocked off the cat's outstretched paw, and mixed the cards into his Rhodes deck. After asking the confused Luvia to help shuffle the cards, his fingers
He knocked on the first card and then suddenly turned it over. It was [Origin·Balance].
Luvia frowned:
"Have you met another ghost with a story?"
asked the fortune teller who had heard of the Moon Dance Festival cards, then shook his head and added:
"It's not a joke this time."
"It's not that I met a ghost, it's that I suddenly have this ability. And..."
He held [Origin·Balance] in his left hand, and the cards suddenly flew out from his fingertips, flying up and down in the room, and then drew infinite symbols around the two of them with difficult movements. Then he flew back to Xia
In De's hands, the whole process is very smooth, as if the cards themselves have intelligence:
"This is not about using a spell to move an object, but I gained the ability to manipulate this card. It's like a physical instinct. I can control my hands and feet, I can control myself speaking, and I can control this card.
Move around."
The fortune teller looked at him hesitantly:
"Xia De, you actually found a way to use the Wanxiang Impermanence card? How did you do it?"
"Of course not, I don't know what's going on...Listen, Luvia."
Shade looked at the purple-eyed fortune teller very seriously. The latter was looked at by Shade, his face turned red and he seemed a little embarrassed:
"you say."
She brushed the hair around her ears again. The cat on Shade's lap looked at the other person's hair and seemed to want to stretch out its paws to touch it.
"Luvia, what are the conditions for being chosen by 'Balance'?"
"Three conditions: understanding balance, possessing an artifact with the power of the ancient gods, and completing the hanging judgment ceremony of sacrificing the eyes."
She whispered, not knowing what Shade wanted to express.
Shade asked again:
"So Thursday night, the night of the coming of the gods. Do you still remember what the white-robed god, oh, my body did?"
"Of course I don't know, and I can't look directly at God. All I know is what you said, but your vagueness is too omitted."
The female soothsayer answered immediately.
"Oh well."
So Shade once again described his experience when he became a god, of course, using the third-person perspective. To sum up, the god happened to have [Origin·Balance], a card with the power of the ancient god, on his body that night, and he made a complete
Actions that meet the requirements of "Pray to the ancient gods, voluntarily sacrifice one eye. In the state of hanging upside down, under the witness of people with special destiny, judge the fateful enemies fairly":
"So, is it possible that I..."
After finishing speaking, Shade pointed to himself hesitantly and then pointed to the card.
Luvia shook her head and laughed:
"Impossible. One identity only corresponds to one chosen person. What's more, a person like you who comes from outside destiny can never be chosen... According to you, the person who was chosen by you from the past
The god who summoned used All Things Impermanence and Balance. Maybe it is for this reason that you can borrow some of the power of this card."
But this is impossible, because Shade also used [Original Silver Moon]. He told Luvia his opinion, and the latter insisted that Shade could never become the chosen one. Although the current situation is impossible
explanation, but it must have nothing to do with the great prophecy of "".
"You have seen the power of the chosen one. What kind of power has Iluna obtained? What kind of power have you obtained? If the power of the chosen one is just to control a card, can you believe it? Shade,
So the current situation arises, I think, because your body was once a vessel for God to descend, so whatever happens is understandable."
Luvia stood up as she spoke, confirmed that Shade only had these things to ask, and prepared to leave:
"If you don't need me to divine the cat for you again, I'm going to leave. We will be very busy these days."
Shade also thought that Luvia's statement was reasonable. He probably was overthinking it, but he did have one more thing:
"Oh, I would also like to ask you to find information about an old god called [Yahua Gate] from the information of the Prophet Association. There is a book list here, all of which are ancient books. If you have time, help me find it.
.”
So he handed over the translated book list. Of course, Shade didn't forget that Miss Feliana and the others were still waiting for him in the Forest of Thousand Trees.
"No problem, once I find the information, I will send it to you directly."
"Goodbye then, Luvia, you leave first, I'll leave after I finish my tea."
"Goodbye, Shade, I wish you all the best today. Just to remind you, it is already the weekend of the third week of this month. Please don't forget that next week is exam week."
