No matter what, the seventeen-year-old girl must continue to learn the way of balance from the red-haired witch, of which the spells and thaumaturgy of the "Laws" series are the focus. But Shade's course did not go so smoothly, because since he and Doro
After Akane and Lesia established their relationship, Shade never successfully attended any Saturday evening classes again.
Her Royal Highness the Princess and Miss Writer seemed to regard Saturday night as a fixed date for Shade and them. Therefore, even though Shade expressed his desire to learn how to obtain the "power" spiritual rune in order to complete the fourth ring
After the last sublimated Word Spirit Rune connected the will, the girls still planned the Saturday night activities in the way they wanted:
"I think 'Power' is not in a hurry. After all, no matter how hard we try, Shade, you will definitely get help in the past time."
The girls said this.
Lesia couldn't often spend the night outside the Yodel Palace, so she didn't know what method she used to convince Dorothy to lend her her body, so that she could use Dorothy's body in St. Teresa's Square.
Stay overnight on the 6th.
This is quite strange behavior, especially for Shade, holding Dorothy's body and calling Lesia's name will give him the illusion that he is a scumbag.
【Isn't it?】
And every time he had this thought, this question would pop up in his ears.
Both Lecia and Dorothy feel that this kind of body swapping to make life easier is normal and does not distort ethics and morality at all.
"If one day I propose that Dorothy wear my clothes and I wear Dorothy's skirt, then we may have lost control. Isn't this normal?"
Her Royal Highness the Princess said matter-of-factly. Seeing that Shade wanted to persuade them not to do this again, the red-haired girl who used the body of the blonde girl asked Shade which body she preferred. So Shade could only shut up.
However, Lecia also complained to Shade privately that Dorothy's physical fitness was really unsatisfactory. But there was nothing that could be done about it. Lecia had received strict training as a royal lady since she was a child, and was proficient in stabbing, riding, and riding.
Magic and other sports are part of the basic courses. Dorothy is an ordinary civilian girl, and her career as a writer in adulthood does not require physical exercise. Even if she becomes a magician, most of her thaumaturgy is focused on summoning.
Spirit and enlightenment. Therefore, although they are both in the fifth ring, their physical abilities are quite different.
The reason why Dorothy agreed to Lesia's request is probably because the writer, while gaining satisfactory friendship and love, has finally taken a successful step in her career recently. Because of the release of "Hamilton Detective Stories"
, she has now become a hot celebrity in the city. Although "Steambird Daily" is only sold in the western region of Delrayon, "Hamilton Detective Stories" can be purchased throughout the Old World.
In just one week, the sales of her new book exceeded the first quarter sales of this year's best-selling popular novel "Marianne's Secret". Dorothy herself was even more popular in "Tobesk Morning News", "Steambird Daily" and "Threepenny"
"The Golden Rose of Delrayon's popular literature" and other newspapers - Lecia later told Shade that this was related to the reputation of Dorothy's father, Professor Louisa.
There are even rumors claiming that Dorothy may become one of the winners of this year's Delrayon "Golden Feather Literary Award". This is not an award that hundreds of people win together, but a real award in the Delrayon literary world.
heavyweight awards. But the writer herself doesn’t care much about these honors. What she enjoys is the process of writing and collecting materials.
"Of course, although I don't care about that kind of honor, and I have no intention of getting entangled in Vanity Fair, but if I am really nominated, I will also assume the responsibility of inheriting and developing Delrayon's popular literature, and..."
She saw that on the other side of the dining table in the "Bonister Restaurant", Shade, who was wearing a formal suit, was suppressing a smile, and she reached out to hold his hand rather angrily.
The success of Dorothy's new book was, of course, indispensable for the help of Detective Shad Hamilton. In return, after Shad made a request to read their diaries at dinner that day, Dorothy and Lesia discussed it for half a week.
, finally agreed.
Of course, only a part of the diary was opened to Shade, and some contents still belong to the ladies' secrets. But this is enough for Shade. Apart from intense studies, he can have such interesting reading, Stranger
Finally, in this era, I found interesting things besides Rhodes cards.
As for Luvia, after the death of the chosen one ended, she, like Shade, chose to rest for a while, and after Iluna came back, the three of them went to the opera together and enjoyed a sumptuous dinner. But it was just
One week, after she and Shade returned to the city from the opera house in a carriage one night, the purple-eyed girl said that she would start investigating the next candidate:
"I will still conduct the preliminary investigation."
Luvia said, taking off Shade's coat in the bedroom and pushing him onto the bed:
"Until there are new clues, you can continue to enjoy the city life in Tobesk at the turn of autumn and winter. Although I have no complaints about your relationship with Dorothy and the princess, I still hope that they have not made you intoxicated.
Game Detective between the Beds, don’t forget that you also want to take the grade-skipping exam at the end of the year. Not only the second-year courses, but also the third-year courses.”
"I've borrowed it from the library"
Those purple eyes looked at Shade facing the moonlight outside the window:
"Now, do you really want to discuss this?"
Of course, Shade did not forget to visit Grace and Helen. The girls were recovering well, and because most of the power of the red butterfly was sealed, they did not have to worry about the power of their own disasters affecting the city, so they could stay together in Meade
Fort Sill, walking and hanging out like a normal person.
Although they have experienced two eras, both the girl in the white dress and the girl in the black dress still have the same personality as a child. Of course, as the older sister, Grace is still relatively mature. Shade went on a tour with them in late autumn.
Fort Midhill, and even took advantage of the night to climb Mount Sikar, which is gradually opening up, and together we went to see the giant tree on the top of the mountain.
Somehow, Summit Lake is back now, and giant trees stand on the islands in the center of Summit Lake. Even in late autumn, the lush tree canopy covers most of the lake.
Under the tree, the Red Butterfly girls closed their eyes and made a wish, and then kissed Shade on the cheeks:
"Let's go to the top of the tree to watch the moon."
With red faces and smiles, Grace and Helen turned into a flock of red butterflies, dancing among the trees under the moonlight. Shade also turned into a flock of butterflies, flying up to the tree crown with them, and at the top of the tree crown under the moonlight.
, look at the brilliant starry sky together.
The intertwined group of butterflies flew to the sea of stars. The story that started after the cocktail party in 3014 of the Fifth Era did not seem to be over. They still had a long story to write. For example, the Geminis planned to
Before winter, try to find a way to get to No. 6, Saint Teresa Square, to see the life of Shade:
"If you have a client there, we can even temporarily act as detective assistants to help you receive people with interesting stories."
Helen suggested with a smile, and it was not difficult for them to find a way to Saint Teresa Square. Grandma Cassandra, the great witch, had already started looking for the relics.
Although [Traveller's Travel Door] is a relic with unique attributes, spatial movement is not the exclusive ability of this relic.
In short, after the death of the chosen ones came to an end, the outsiders enjoyed their leisure time in this world. They did not have to worry about their livelihood, nor did they have to worry about the poems of fate. However, every time they woke up early in the morning, they found that the girl beside their pillow and
A few days ago, at different times, he would feel guilty about "how could I become such a person", but then he would be teased in his ear by "her":
[Outlander, no one will stay the same forever. At least, you have only changed in this aspect.]
Study hard, or receive clients, or hang out in the city, accompany Dorothy to collect information, or go to the Seer Association to ask Luvia for divination, at least before Wednesday, the 13th day of the Frost Moon, that is, Priest August
Before the tenth day after returning from Fort Midhill, Shade's life was fulfilling and peaceful.
Within two weeks, he took out an exquisite silver pocket watch and a bottle of very good-tasting perfume from the "God's Gift Box". The task of the pocket watch was to pray to God on time at seven o'clock every night during this week; the perfume passed
After being identified by Priest August, it was confirmed that it was just an ordinary item, and Shade gave it to Luvia.
As for the mission of perfume, Shade was asked to collect dewdrops in the morning. This led him to raise two pots of flowers at home, which added new life to the home besides him and Mia the cat. But Mia did not allow Shade
The flower pots were placed on the window sill of the living room where he took a nap, so the two pots of flowers were placed on the balcony. Shade also specifically asked "her" to remind him to water the flowers from time to time.
Of course, in addition to occasionally asking doctors for knowledge about demons and Priest Augustus for knowledge about angels, Shade also accepted three detective tasks other than "The Haunting of Mr. Hank" and "Baron Passos' Family Medal."
Commission. The solving of the cases named "Lewis' Giant Cat", "Cemetery Evening Bell Murder" and "The Missing Third Gold Coin" in Shade's detective records also spread the reputation of Detective Shade Hamilton again.
After getting out, the detective's career is booming and life seems to be getting better and better.
But the peace would not last forever. After a short period of repair, in the frost month, that is, in the early morning of November 13th, a letter arrived, symbolizing that Shade's rest time was finally over.
