The dense clouds attracted the attention of almost everyone outside in the nearby area, and almost all the ring wizards located in the center of Huntington felt the terrifying power.
And on the roof of the mansion, which was almost completely dark, the next second, a fiery red light lit up in front of my eyes.
Emma Sylvia felt the hand holding her loosen, and the fire lit up in front of her eyes. She widened her eyes and saw Shade's back as he stepped forward. In the strong wind and darkness, fine cracks were forming on his face.
Spreading all over his body, the fiery red light, like burning embers, pulled back little bits of firelight with the wind.
Feeling the temperature of the fire at such a close distance, she was absolutely certain that this was the "primordial fire."
"That is......"
Shade understood what was in the brass box and what would happen next. Miss Sylvia stretched out her hand to stop him, but Shade just threw his coat filled with items towards
This great witch.
Stuffing the leaves into his mouth, while the witch was panicking and the priest, vampire and princess looked horrified, Shade took the initiative and jumped into the sky covered with dark clouds.
Thunder exploded, and the dark lightning in the clouds finally converged into dark thunder, striking downwards.
Even the people fighting in the courtyard all looked towards the roof of the building, looking at the flaming figure colliding with the thunder.
Boom!
After the loud noise, everything was silent, and the terrifying mental pressure was swept away. The dark clouds above the head immediately dispersed, revealing the brilliant starry sky again. Only the buzzing in the ears proved that what just happened was not an illusion, and only the ring warlocks could see it.
, there are still streaks of thunder looming under the starry sky.
Snap!
Shade, who was smoking, fell heavily from a high altitude to the roof of the building. At this moment, the moonlight of three moons simultaneously illuminated him lying on his back, and streaks of hot white smoke rose from his body.
All the clothes on his body had become scorched black.
What happened at this moment made the young witch a little overwhelmed, but she still bent down and picked up Shade, and then disappeared on the roof of the building.
"Um......"
Mr. Bernhardt hesitantly looked at the rooftop, which had returned to calm again, and then asked:
"Who were those two people just now?"
The middle-aged priest of the Peace Church shook his head slowly, walked to the edge of the roof and looked around to make sure that the Truth Society, the cultists and the two unidentified people had left.
"Your Highness, what do you have on you?"
The priest asked the princess who pretended to be frightened, and the latter immediately shook her head:
"I don't know, but you can check my carry-on luggage. I don't have any contraband."
All her spell-casting materials are in Miss Sylvia's hands, and she is not afraid of being inspected.
"We will talk about this later, but please remember, Your Highness, that these two gentlemen did not show up tonight. Their identities... are somewhat sensitive."
The priest pointed to Mr. Bernhardt and said, and the princess nodded immediately.
"Let's leave first."
Mr. Bernhardt also said, and then motioned to Viscount Ramadi to go with him, but the Viscount respectfully bowed to the princess:
"Your Highness, I am Johnson Ramadi, and I am willing to serve you."
After making sure that Princess Margaret knew who he was, she and Mr. Bernhardt left. The latter thought that the Viscount's behavior was very disgraceful.
"Will the truth?"
The priest muttered to himself, and then together with Princess Margaret, they waited on the roof for the church team to come for reinforcements. On the other side, Miss Sylvia had already returned to her home with Shade's charred "corpse" in her arms.
lounge.
The great witch was trembling all over, and placed the "corpse" on the sofa. When she reached out to test his breath, she saw the fingers of the charred corpse suddenly trembled:
"Oh~"
Shade sat up straight under the light of the gas lamp, startling Miss Sylvia:
"How are you doing?"
The witch asked carefully, and then saw Shade, whose face was charred, opening his eyes. His eyes were confused for a while, and then he opened his mouth and blew out a puff of smoke:
"Ahem, it's not bad."
He coughed loudly, then gasped for air, and touched his mouth with lingering fear, making sure that the [Eternal Youth Leaf] was completely chewed up and swallowed. I have to admit that the healing properties of this relic are really outstanding.
The action of raising his hand caused the black "shell" on Shade's body to peel off, revealing normal and delicate human skin again.
He looked at his arm and confirmed that the expensive formal suit was completely damaged, but fortunately, Lecia had prepared many more outfits for him to attend next week's wedding.
But he was suddenly startled, and touched the top of his head again, and sure enough he found that his hair had become burnt black:
"This is a terrible time."
"If you are worried about your hair, it doesn't matter. I will help you deal with it. Witches are all good at hair growth."
Miss Sylvia said softly, and Shade breathed a sigh of relief.
[Outlander, you have some understanding of "thunder", "wrath" and "storm". 】
The voice rang in his ears, and Shade calmed down the violent restlessness of his heart, still experiencing the feeling of being hit by the dark thunder just now:
"Is it confirmed that it has divine power?"
[Yes, judging from the power of that thunder, there is at least a drop of divinity in the relic [Raging Divine Punishment]. Judging from your perception, it is most likely the divinity of the evil god [Furious Storm]. 】
"As expected."
Shade just rushed towards the thunderbolt, on the one hand because he was the only one among the people with "divine" resistance, and the full blow of the angel-level relic was not so easy to block; on the other hand, it was also for the sake of better protection.
Feel the power carefully.
Now it seems that before the matter of the "Lady of the Lake" has been clarified, he actually encountered a second drop of divinity.
"Miss Sylvia!"
Shade suddenly said, startling the young witch who was distracted and didn't know what she was thinking. Compared to Granny Cassandra, she is not that mature yet.
"I'm here, are you okay?"
She asked with some worry. The way Shade risked his life to face the thunder just now really shocked her. Looking back now, if Shade hadn't rushed up, even if she was a tenth-level witch and a tenth-level warlock, she would have encountered
to big trouble.
"I'm fine, I feel pretty good, but I need to take a shower."
He looked at the witch and asked suspiciously:
"What is there in Princess Margaret that is worth the trouble of truth? Is it the book "The Secret of Agelessness"?"
"No, there are only two fragments of the poem above. Although they are precious, they are not worth such a high price for the truth."
Miss Sylvia said, her eyes drifting down, and her cheeks immediately turned crimson:
"You...put on your clothes first."
Throwing the coat that Shade had left to her for safekeeping to him, Shade noticed that all of his clothes were carbonized by the lightning strike. As he stood up, the remains of his clothes also left his skin:
"Sorry sorry."
He reached into his pocket to take out his spare clothes. The great witch also turned her head slightly, then raised her right hand to cover her side view, which was to avoid suspicion.
But when Shade was looking for toys, the white middle finger and ring finger of the witch's right hand were slightly separated, and her shy and beautiful eyes looked down from between the fingers:
"Oh~ He is really a man"
Her face turned redder.
After getting dressed, Shade told Miss Sylvia that she could turn around. The young witch still had a blush on her face for some reason, but Shade had no time to think about what was going on:
"It's really interesting tonight. The Society of Truth hired the local [Pantanal Voodoo Society] to provoke a battle between the Voodoo Society and the church, leading to clues about the evil things in the Pantanal. They themselves were in
I'm looking for something I don't know what it is. It looks like Huntington will be in chaos for a while, and the church won't let the Voodoo Society go. Miss Sylvia, it seems your visit to Tobesk won't be peaceful either.
, that 'Miss Pavo' from the Truth Society may find Princess Margaret again."
"It doesn't matter, at least she is still a rational madman."
Miss Sylvia seemed to be afraid to look at Shade's face. She reached for her handbag and looked for the magic potion for Shade's treatment.
"With you by Princess Margaret's side, coupled with the protection of Serksese and the protection of the church, everything will be fine. And there is Miss Carina in Tobesk."
Shade sat on the sofa and put the new shoes on the floor.
"I invited you to this banquet. I didn't expect that something like this would happen. If you hadn't blocked the thunder in the end...it seems that Miss Carina's praise of you was not exaggerated at all."
Miss Sylvia said softly and handed a bottle of pink magic potion to Shade. Shade didn't know if he had any other injuries, so he pulled out the stopper and drank the potion. It was a cherry-flavored potion.
, and also has a very light mint flavor, which tastes very good:
"It's nothing, it's my responsibility to protect the beautiful ladies."
The young witch pursed her lips and smiled. She had a preliminary understanding of why Duke Carina Cavendish, whose power had almost reached the pinnacle of the material world, was so "obsessed" with Shade.
Although Shade was still talking to Miss Sylvia, his mind had already drifted to another thing.
After putting on his shoes, he turned to look out the window. After the dark clouds dispersed, the brilliant stars were shining above the mist. Shade found that the air quality in all the cities he had visited was better than Tobesk:
"I originally came to this city because of the rumors of the 'Lady of the Lake'. Unexpectedly, the Lady of the Lake has not yet been found, but she actually discovered this from the cultists. There are more and more troublesome things."
He thought in his mind that the city of Huntington, with its thousands of lights, seemed like a giant crawling on the dark plain.
Miss Sylvia also followed him to the window and looked out the window with Shade. She was paying attention to the movements of the ring magicians of the church. After the thunder, the ring magicians of the Pantanal Voodoo Society were already retreating.
, but the church did not let them go.
【So, do you find it troublesome? 】
"She" asked with a chuckle in the soft evening breeze blowing from the window. Shade's eyes widened slightly:
"Trouble? Of course not."
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked towards the dark distance under the night sky. The divinity of the evil god and the divinity of the unknown god. At this moment, two clues were in front of him:
"I want both divinities!"
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
ps1: Now there is only one [Eternal Youth Leaf] left in my hand.
ps2: Shade said that he would unlock the key after finding the clue to divinity, so the story of the new key will begin soon. Who will he meet this time?
