The night breeze in the real world made the people on the deck wake up from a dream. Returning from the deep black waters, even the stars in the night sky seemed extremely shining at this time.
So most of the people flew off the deck and went to help in the forest or above the city. Tonight's battle was not over yet. Only the giant beast hunter from the Church of Nature, Mr. Bill Camora, represented the Church of the Five Gods and Zarath Academy of Literature.
On behalf of the three major colleges, the spirit summoner Professor Goost expressed his gratitude to the "God Summoner" and then left in a hurry. Iluna also followed them and said goodbye to everyone.
After sending away the last ring warlock who did not belong to this ship, the "Brilliant Emissary" went into hiding again, planning to take a tour of the woods before returning to Lake Ulen.
The restoration of the order of time and space allowed the portal connecting the ship to the city to return to normal. When Granny Cassandra checked the round-faced owl, and the exhausted Shad searched for the "angel elixir" to recover,
Seavey sent her niece Miss Hayley Aurora with a message to the people on board:
"The candidate Yuri Aston was defeated. Although he did not die, he was found an opportunity by the 'Clockmaker' of the Thirteenth Ring and lost in a one-on-one battle.
'The Clockmaker' opened a space-time rift above the city ten minutes ago and released some weird things from it. Now those monsters are fighting the church forces above the city, and the ring warlocks from the [Tree Hole Association] have covered her
Escaped."
"The church couldn't keep her either? Didn't the church leave people in the city to defend her?"
"The clockmaker and the ring warlocks from the [Tree Hole Association] all have a strong power of time. If she wants to leave, no one can stop her."
This is bad news. What happened tonight was an exchange, using the life of the dragon beast in exchange for a candidate from the church.
"Where's the paladin?"
Bella asked with a frown, and the witch apprentice, who had the same brown hair as Xi Wei, shook her head:
"He disappeared. Before disappearing, he left a message to Mr. Hamilton: The story at the beginning of the era is not important. Everything is just an extension of the chaos at the end of the previous era."
"This is the rule of the Time War. Since he has failed, the helpers he found will also disappear."
The elf girl explained, but Dorothy asked:
"But the last time you and Shade defeated the clockmaker who had just entered the Thirteenth Ring, counting the time, the halfling killer in the city battlefield did not disappear immediately."
"So someone is helping her and has been helping her for a long time."
The monsters released from the cracks in time and space were quickly wiped out with the support of the high-level warlocks in the forest, and the small riots in the city were also quelled. However, although the dragon beasts were eliminated, [
The return of the "Tree Hole Association" and the Thirteenth Ring "Clockmaker" has brought more problems.
Losing the Time War and being able to come back without even having to fight an unknown resurrection match, in Shade's opinion, this can only be attributed to higher authority. And which tree does that higher authority come from?
The tree or the power of the first candidate is actually not important in Shade's opinion.
After all, he already knows who the first candidate is.
The branch wrapped in the breeze that Jindel handed to Shade was the same as the branch burning with sparks that the demon dropped after his death. They both represented part of the "earth, wind, water, and fire" used to hide the ancient one.
.
As for the heart, Shade regarded it as a gift, but he didn't want to deal with these things tonight.
From this morning's departure to the Ashes River Valley to complete the final key to now, he has done too many things this Wednesday. After confirming that Flora was fine and just fell into a deep sleep temporarily, he now just wants to rest, and he doesn't even think about it.
He was going to experiment with what would happen if he used the "treasured object" with his hometown's real name, and he had no intention of disposing of Jindel's corpse. He originally planned to use [Puppetry] to control the corpse to perform some activities if the plan did not go well.
Dong dong dong~
After the knock on the door, the beautiful Duchess who was talking to Tifa saw Shade appearing at her door. So the maid lady hugged the documents on the table and left the room with a wink, wearing a nightgown.
Carina asked curiously:
"Shade, I thought you had gone to rest. Are you exhausted tonight?"
"Last night, didn't I promise you that I would come to see you today?"
Shade said, pointing to the rose on the bed. The duchess was a little happy, but she didn't show it on her face:
"You are so tired, we don't miss this night. Go back and rest, otherwise Lesia will definitely complain to me if she finds out."
She said this, and indeed she thought so in her heart:
"I don't want to be regarded as that kind of woman. Go to the room with your cat and rest. When you wake up, there will be many things to deal with tomorrow. I will go find you tomorrow night. I have prepared a very beautiful pajamas.
"
Then she walked to the door and kissed Shade on the side of her face. Shade smiled and kissed her too, and when Shade's figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor, Dorothy walked from the other side of the corridor.
come out.
Although even Shade couldn't distinguish Dorothy and Lesia by sight alone, the duchess could still tell who it was at a glance:
"Lecia, are you still up so late?"
The smiling blonde girl shook her head:
"There is something I want to tell you. Today my father convened a meeting with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and even called in Sir Smith, the retired former Secretary of the Treasury, for advice.
My father plans to issue war bonds at the end of this year. This matter has been confirmed, but the specific amount and the number of issues to be issued have not yet been planned. However, the Dukes of Tobesk are very interested in purchasing the first issue of bonds. I
I think you should know about this as soon as possible. I thought you would let Shade stay just now."
The duchess leaned against the door frame with her hands folded in front of her chest, looking at her grandniece with her golden eyes:
"If it were you, would you let Shade stay?"
"Of course not."
"Then why do you think I'm worse than you?"
Lesia looked very happy:
"Where does this sense of unprovoked comparison come from? Forget it, no kidding. It seems that my father is already planning the war, but he just doesn't know who will fire the first shot this time."
Her expression became slightly more serious:
"When the incident in the Vista Grove is over and you return to Tobesk, be prepared to face these troubles. Once the war starts, it will definitely not be completely under control, and many problems will arise by then."
"I'm just a member of the royal family and not a royal heir. I don't want to worry about these things now."
Carina said, looking in the direction of Shade's room again:
"If it hadn't been for Shade, I might have thought about the future of our Cavendish family, but now that I have Shade, I don't care much about the political affairs of the kingdom anymore. After all, I don't want to be with the current Marge.
Just like Litte Anjou, she is in the same city but cannot stay with Shade."
"As long as your surname is Cavendish instead of Hamilton, our hair color and bloodline will determine that no one can escape."
Lesia saw it very clearly:
"My dear aunt, even if you say this, you will definitely not ignore this matter in the end, right?"
Carina sighed softly, she rarely did such an action:
"How about we work together to convince Shade and let him be the king. After unifying the North and the South, as long as he marries you and Margaret at the same time, he actually has a claim. After that, he only needs to get the church
Admit it, people’s opinions are actually very easy to manipulate.”
Lecia was still smiling happily:
"It sounds very good. This way, the long-cherished wish of reunification of the old continent can be easily realized. But doesn't our Mr. Knight hate such troublesome things the most?"
They all ignored the scattered small principalities, but they were indeed not very important.
After a peaceful night's sleep, it was already Thursday when he opened his eyes again. Shade got up at 6:30 on time. When he brushed his teeth and washed himself, he thought of Emilia, who still had not returned. Then at the dining table
When I saw the girls, I thought again that the bottle of pink essence had been almost consumed again.
It seemed that since the Love Lake incident, Shade often felt that the essence was not enough. He was not sure if this was another "conspiracy" of the mermaid.
Last night's battle seemed like a dream. When he heard Miss Bell reporting the aftermath of last night's battle while eating breakfast, Shade still felt unreal. The dragon beast was solved so "easily", but originally
"Blade of the Sky", which I planned to talk about in detail, also made a hasty exit when no one expected it.
Xi Wei and Sylvia both regretted that they did not stay on the boat last night, so they could not see what the last scene was. Luvia was more worried about what happened to the owl that was still awake this morning.
"She has broken through the shackles of her own ego, which is a good thing."
Mother-in-law Cassandra said happily that each generation of young people is getting better and better, which she thinks is a good thing.
As for Schade, he doesn't think the return of "The Clockmaker" is a purely bad thing:
"The ancient one hiding in the woods always needs a spokesperson to do things. It's either a human or a monster. If it's not a monster, it may be something more bizarre. Now our familiar enemy has returned again. This is at least not the worst case scenario."
He has already acquiesced that the "clockmaker" obtained the second qualification from the ancient one. After all, "authority" can only be given to a few beings.
Now that the dragon beast is dead, the only two enemies standing in front are those representing "earth" and "water". The latter is still unknown, but the former has been confirmed to be the "guardian" of the Paradox Bugs.
However, everyone needs to rest after last night's battle, and the church also needs to re-examine their personnel arrangements and plans in the Vista Grove area. In addition, there are no specific results of the investigation into the Bennet family, so even if Shad
, nor would he say that he would attack the "Watchers" today.
PS: Kidney stones are a minor illness, but the pain is really terrible. I experienced an ambulance for the first time last night.
