Chapter 3416 Door Bracelet and Fireplace
When she saw Carina, Sylvia asked the familiar question:
"Karina, why are you always here?"
The maids had already prepared dinner and were waiting for the masters to start eating. The Duchess shook her head slightly:
"You are wrong today. Resia and I have to go back to Yodel Palace soon. Several distant relatives of the Cavendish family came today, so we can't stay here overnight. I was thinking of letting Dorothy come here to accompany Shade, but now that you are here, there is no need for Dorothy to come here specially."
"Xia De~"
Her Royal Highness the Princess came over and gave Xia De a gentle hug. It was obvious that she was very worried about Xia De's condition.
Emilia was in no hurry to go back, so she had dinner with everyone at home. After dinner, Shade still took the elf girl back to the college library. When they were alone, she took Shade's hand, swaying gently while following him, obviously in a good mood.
Danister was waiting in the library for Shad to bring Emilia back. After Emilia kissed Shad sweetly on the side of his face and ran away, she motioned for Shad to sit down and talk:
"I asked the professors of the School of Mechanical Engineering to look at the knowledge you gave me about the 'Germora Alchemical Rune Array'. They said that theoretically, it is indeed possible to use the metal made in this way to strengthen another weapon of the same type. You can try to strengthen your [Night Watcher].
In addition, I will find someone to write the alchemy knowledge you gave me into a paper and publish it, and you will still be the first author. The college requires high-level students to publish at least one paper every year, regardless of whether they are correspondence students or on-campus students. Although you claim to be only a middle-level student now, you will definitely be a high-level student within this year, so it’s right to prepare first.”
She transformed into an 18-year-old girl and took Shade's hand:
“I won’t be going to the island for now, so I can only ask Emilia to help you. In a few days, I will find a way to let the unicorn Lianna go to the island with Emilia. That little unicorn is very smart.”
She looked at Shade's face:
"You seem a little tired."
Xia De was curious about how she figured it out:
"Something went wrong when I used the time key this morning, but it's just a small matter. It's nothing serious."
As he spoke, he took the initiative to hug Danister, and the red-haired girl also leaned into his arms:
"If you need my help, remember to come to me in time. You can also come to me when you are lonely."
She even blushed a little when she said this, but Xia De really had something to ask her now:
"I have some questions I want to ask you."
He let go of Danister and sat up straight:
"Dannister, I know that there have always been many groups and individuals who worship the moon. Some of them are simply attracted to the moon and do not actually use its power. I have come into contact with the Crescent Moon Hermitage and discussed this topic with them. Do you know the story of the 'Moon-chasing Werewolf' in ancient legends?"
In today's dream, the werewolf girl seemed to be hinting that she had become a being beyond time and space. When Shade was in the "Alien Tree Academy" in Ash Valley, he knew that she was very talented and pure, but he still didn't know how she did it.
Even if the bark of the World Tree and the glasses of the god were left to her, Megan and Audrey's ancestors who wanted to transcend time and space probably couldn't do it with just these. Laplace Howard, who was also very talented.
Danister thought about it for a moment, then shook his head:
"I need to look up some information before I can answer you. Werewolves and vampires are always associated with the moon. There are actually many stories about werewolves chasing the moon. What specifically do you want to know?"
"It's about a friend from the Fifth Era. But it doesn't really matter if I can't find out."
Shade looked at her face:
"This Saturday night, we will be able to use the ritual for the second time and push open the Silver Moon Gate. Then we will have to find the location of the tree where Ms. Helena Carter transformed herself. This is the most important thing right now."
Different ways of entering the sage's library will grant different permissions. Entering through a ritual is not only limited to once a year, but also only grants the lowest level of permissions - only once, ask the library for the history and stories recorded here/only once, ask the stars for things that will happen in the near future/only once, ask the moon for blessings (choose one of three).
Although the information available is limited, it is actually enough if we just want to find the location of the "corpse".
The red moon was provided by Danister, the silver moon was provided by Shade, and the yellow moon was provided by [Source of Chaos]. So although only the two of them could enter the library, they actually only had one chance to search.
Shade could even try to ask questions like "the remains of the original moon", "how to meet the Silver Moon Sage", and "how to touch the ancient god of the moon".
"I always feel like you're thinking about something very blasphemous."
The eighteen-year-old sorceress said in a low voice, and this time she put her arms around Shade's neck:
"I know Saturday night is your time with the other girls, but the ceremony can only be held at night, and I don't want to wait another day. So, can you tell Resia Cavendish and Dorothy Louisa to give me this Saturday?"
"no problem."
Shade kissed her forehead:
"Prepare the materials for the ritual. This Saturday, I will open the Silver Moon Gate with you again."
They looked at themselves in each other's eyes and said together -
"May the first silver moon protect me under the starry sky at night."
Afterwards, Shade was not in a hurry to go home, but he took the Midhill Castle as agreed, and then arrived at the sacrificial site on the top of the mountain. Looking at the moon in the sky here, the moons seemed particularly large.
So Shade stretched out his hand towards the night sky at the entrance of the sacrificial field, and the moonlight water was first shaped into the shape of a bracelet, and then frozen by the cold. When Shade raised the bracelet, the moon in the Milky Way gathered all its light and concentrated it in the moonlight water, and finally turned it into a real "moonlight bracelet".
This is the third time that Shad has made this kind of gift, in addition to Vanessa's ring and Iluna's dagger (year-end gifts).
The bracelet was handed directly to Sister Defulin by Shade, who would choose a suitable day to put it back into the box and bury it under the tombstone. Shade was not in a hurry to leave, and with a little melancholy, he and Sister Defulin, who was holding the bracelet in her hand, watched the moon on the top of the mountain.
“I want to touch it.”
Xia De suddenly said, and the nun lowered her head slightly and asked:
"And then?"
"what?"
“If you want to touch the moon, is it a result or a process? If it is a process, what is your goal afterwards?”
Xia De continued to look at the huge moon disk with determination, but did not express his true thoughts.
Xia De felt that he was really not in good shape today, so when he said goodbye to Sister Defulin and went home, he thought that although it was still early, he would not read today.
Carina, Lecia and the maids had already left, so when Shad returned, only the cat and Sylvia were at home.
As he walked out of the basement and climbed the stairs, he was still thinking about what Sylvia would do at home. Then, after he walked into Room 1 on the second floor, he saw Sylvia standing in front of the fireplace with a smile.
She turned her back to the fire in the fireplace, holding her waist with one hand, and because she was too close to the fireplace, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her body. As for why Xia De knew this, it was of course because the total area of fabric on Sylvia's clothes was the same as the total area of fabric on Mia's clothes.
The curtains in the room were all closed, and even the gas lamp was not turned on, so the red flames of the fireplace perfectly presented the color and beauty of Sylvia's skin. Of course, her loose black hair also became more charming under the firelight.
The shocked Shade stood at the door, not knowing where to look for a moment. So he looked from top to bottom, and from bottom to top, and the black-haired witch was naturally very satisfied with Shade's performance at the moment. She showed it with great confidence, confirming once again that she was still very attractive:
"I've already showered in advance, but if you mind me sweating again, I can go wash again."
"No, no, no need."
Xia De said as he threw his coat on the back of the sofa, then walked towards the girl who was showing off her perfect figure in front of the fireplace:
"This time I finally have a chance to verify it."
"Verify what?"
"Is that the scent of your perfume 'Witch's Scent', or..."
The dancing flames in the fireplace projected the figures of the two people hugging each other onto the wall. Sylvia smiled and said something like "I'm ticklish", but did not stop Shad's next move.
Shad confirmed that Sylvia really did have the so-called "body odor".
The "mermaid painting" hanging on the wall quietly watched them in the swaying light and shadow, while the cat lying on the back of the sofa closed its eyes and dozed off. At one moment, when the "mermaid" in the painting seemed to turn her head because of the swaying light and shadow, the cat looked at the painting with its amber eyes.
So the painting is still a painting, and the cat is still a cat. As for Shad, when Sylvia later shared her experience with Carina, Megan, and Vanessa, she said half boastfully and half fearfully:
"I thought Shade was really going to kill me. He really liked me, very much."
Sylvia didn't get up in time early on Wednesday morning, and when Shad opened the window to let the wind and snow blow into the bedroom, she just complained softly that it was snowing again.
Xia De would not leave Sylvia alone at home. He waited until she woke up at around eight o'clock, had breakfast with her at home, and then the two of them went to the witch's tower together.
