Chapter 2814: Moon Tree and Xia De
"Excuse me, what happened here?"
The thirteenth ring sorceress asked in a very impolite tone, and since she was playing the "bad guy", Shade would of course come out to play the "good guy":
"Good evening. We were both passing by and it looks like something is going on here."
The two of them looked at each other, probably because it was not a big secret, so they did not hide it:
"A few days ago, we caught a cultist who believed in the cursed god, the Probability Demon, and fled to the forest. After interrogation, we found that he sold the things in his hands to the daughter of a local wealthy businessman for a high price."
The brown-haired ring wizard glanced at the two people by the lake:
"The daughter of the rich merchant liked the young knight over there, so out of jealousy, she cursed the girl with the curse of the cultists. When we found the daughter of the rich merchant, she had already fallen into a coma due to the backlash of the curse.
It took us several days to determine who was cursed, but when we came here today, we found a new problem. "
He sighed and told the rest of the story:
"The young knight used the low-concentration Holy Water No. 4 that his father had obtained from the cathedral in Willendel more than 30 years ago to try to heal the girl, but Holy Water No. 4 was ineffective against a curse of this degree. Now the curse has undergone an unknown change and has become like this again."
As he spoke, he did not hide the two people who were hugging and crying behind him, so the young man Faris pleaded:
"Let me bear this curse for Marissa. She is still so young and should not bear such a fate."
The brown-haired ringmaster shook his head apologetically:
"I admire your spirit, but I can't transfer the curse. Curse science is a profound subject, and now that the curse has changed, the means we originally prepared to remove the curse may not be useful.
Anyway, we can only take her back to the church first, and then seal off the room where she lives to make sure the curse doesn't leak out. And you have to do that too."
"Wait a mininute."
The black-haired sorceress stopped him from talking, then spread out her hand and showed the ring in her hand under the moonlight:
"I think this should help them."
The story of Marissa and Faris is more like a small episode to Shad. The curse of mutation is still a curse, and after it is weakened by holy water, the [Tail Ring] can completely suppress it.
Although the price of the girl no longer growing raven feathers was an extra tail, the church could still solve this kind of trouble. And even if the church couldn't solve it, Saint Byrons had a way.
The two people from the church were very curious about who the two "kind-hearted people" who suddenly appeared were, but neither Shad nor Ms. Helena Carter wanted to stay.
After getting the ring back, the two left the woods directly.
After that, the sorceress smiled and invited Shade to the Golden Music Hall to listen to tonight's concert. After the concert was over, the cleaners had cleaned the room, and all the lights in the hall, which had been bustling just now, were turned off, the two of them came back.
Shade was wearing a black suit and his hair was done up; Ms. Helena Carter did not wear the dress she wore at the wedding banquet last night, but changed into a golden dress, but still wore the beige wide-brimmed sun hat, which was actually an angel-level relic [Dream of Shade].
"I still don't understand what you're going to do. I admit that there are indeed secrets hidden here that were not discovered until my time, but that secret should have nothing to do with whether I can go back, right?"
Shade asked, and the lady who was leading Shade to the stage asked:
"You may have forgotten, but you said that you had a dream here at the Moondance concert and mastered the 'Secret Fire'. I think this is very telling. Without the power of time, do you really think that the long-lost fire would be mastered by you?"
She was talking to herself, her high heels making clacking sounds on the carpet:
"And young man, I have much more knowledge than you do. Your teacher is not as good as hers."
Shade was amused by this statement:
"Okay, now what do you need me to do?"
"It's simple, just sleep with me."
As he said that, he took Xia De's hand and walked with him into the aisle in front of the first row of the auditorium, and then the two of them sat together in the two most central seats in the first row. Now the stage was pitch black, and there was no fire in the performance hall. After sitting down, it was very comfortable to lean against the soft backrest.
“I can’t turn the current midsummer into the Moon Dance Festival in autumn, but I do know a little about the moon and dreams.”
She handed the [Tail Ring] to Shade and asked him to put it on, but Shade hesitated and didn't want to take it:
"This is for you to suppress the curse. I must emphasize that there may be more than one way for me to return."
“This is the first time I know that Danister would choose such an indecisive student.”
She then forced the ring onto Shade's hand:
“Isn’t this enough? The time curse can never be solved by a ring. I believe it can suppress the curse to a certain extent and turn part of the curse’s power into a tail, but I don’t want to do this. And I bet that even if Danister gets the ring, she won’t be willing to do this.
Now listen to me, young sir, lean back in your chair, hold your sword, and close your eyes. I don't want to hear another word from you."
She deliberately pretended to be stern, so Xia De had no choice but to shut his mouth, lean against the cushion behind him in a comfortable position and close his eyes.
It was only 9:30 in the evening, and he was not sleepy at all. So the lady next to him cast a spell on him and told him not to refuse her entry into his dreams.
Soon, Shade, who originally didn't want to sleep, fell downward as if his consciousness was hooked by a hook, until he landed like a light feather on the endless wilderness illuminated by the silver moon.
The familiar scenery made him feel at ease, and he soon felt that someone was trying to invade this dream. Because he knew who it was, Shade did not stop them. Then the light and shadows under the moonlight twisted, and a red copper door appeared next to Shade, and the black-haired lady pushed the door open and walked in:
"Is this your dream?"
She looked around, then raised her head to look at the unusually large silver moon:
"As much as I'd like to say I'm surprised, I'm actually not that surprised."
She tried to take a deep breath, and surprisingly felt that the dream was more real than she had imagined. However, this action was not for the dream, so she did not pay too much attention to it:
"Okay, next you have to try to dream again in your dream."
Rose-red eyes looked at him.
"What do I need to do?"
Shade asked again, but the sorceress did not give any solution. Instead, she smiled and blinked:
"That depends on you. All I can provide you is to help you activate the power of the Tree Father."
As she spoke, she took a few steps back, and then her body slowly stretched upwards, and the color of her clothes and skin became darker until it turned into brown. In just a few seconds, she changed from a black-haired lady to a tree with an emerald green canopy standing under the moon:
"Do you remember the content of my time curse? Although I postponed the curse of 'irreversible transformation into a tree' until after my death, I still gained this transformation ability."
A very dull sound came from inside the tree, and the treetops swayed gently under the moon, making a rustling sound. At this time, the tree roots were deeply rooted in the ground, so that the sorceress's soul was directly connected to this dream. More precisely, she put a part of her soul into the surface of Shade's soul. When the two souls were connected to each other, the tree father's time curse also touched Shade:
“Come, sit beside me now, and try to dream again in your dreams.
If we are lucky, maybe something will happen. If we are unlucky, we can go back to sleep. Didn’t you say you wanted to go back to Tobesk in the afternoon? We can go tomorrow.”
"Then it's a deal. If it doesn't work, we'll go to Tobesk tomorrow."
Xia De then walked under the shade of the tree. He wanted to sit cross-legged, but the treetops rustled and shook again, expressing their objection:
"Even if you want to show that you are a gentleman, don't choose this occasion."
So Xia De, who was already sitting, moved a little bit by supporting himself with one hand, and finally leaned his back against the tree trunk.
The tree that Lady Helena Carter transformed into was not particularly tall, and its canopy was not enough to block out the sun, so there was still faint starlight falling from above, and Shad could still see the huge silver moon.
After he sat down, he did not speak again, and the tree also remained silent. The man and the tree looked at the silver moon together, and facing the moon in the form of a tree, the thirteen-ring sorceress also felt some strange feelings in her soul.
She gradually became so absorbed in the silver moon in the starry sky that when she came to her senses, she discovered that Xia De had fallen asleep without her noticing.
The treetops rustled, that was her chuckling. Under the moon, in the endless wilderness, under a lonely tree was a young man leaning against the tree and falling asleep. At this moment, the dream had already solidified like an oil painting, he leaned against the tree, and the tree embraced him.
In the real concert hall, the ring on Shad's finger gradually emitted a faint light. In the dream, the big tree seemed to be lit up by the silver moon, and then the emerald green light sprinkled down from the crown of the big tree, until the moonlit night was filled with emerald green spots.
She knew it was time to say goodbye again, so as the shadows of the trees swayed, she emerged from the tree and embraced Shade under the tree;
"Remember to protect yourself. Goodbye, Shad. May the moon shine on you and Danister thirty years from now. I cannot see the world then, so please take responsibility. Even if I am dead, I will always be with you."
She whispered in the ear of the already asleep Shade, and then, like Shade just now, she looked over the treetops at the moon. The moon was still shining on this dream.
