Whispering Verse

"This ring is for human use. If worn by non-human races, it will greatly reduce the wearer's lifespan while resisting diseases. Using lifespan to resist diseases is not worth it in most cases."

The doctor commented, then gave advice:

"You can keep the [Epidemic Doctor Ring] for yourself. Although most ring magicians will not get sick, if you encounter an opponent who is good at epidemic abilities, this ring can play a big role. The containment method is also very simple. Each Just scrub it with clean water once a month, otherwise the wooden ring will take root and sprout."

Shade nodded. He was also inclined to keep the ring rather than sell it. This kind of relic with obvious functional direction will generally not be sold at a good price unless you meet a ring warlock who is in urgent need of it. In this case, it is better to keep it for yourself.

As for the storage methods, he has a special notebook to record the storage methods of various relics in his home, so as to prevent himself from forgetting those relics that need to be disposed of on time.

"Speaking of which, doctor, I actually have one more thing to ask you."

Shade closed the red box and placed it next to his sword.

"Say, you don't have to be polite to me."

Blue eyes looked at Shade.

"That's it...you just said that you can use some means to peek into someone's desires?"

"Yes."

The doctor nodded.

"I want you to help me find a ring warlock, Sir Lykins Prisha. We met at Canary Manor. He is the five-ring warlock who talks to demons."

Shade reminded, and the doctor recalled:

"I remember this person. At the wedding banquet at Lakeview Manor a month ago, Alan and I welcomed him and Her Royal Highness the Princess. However, when I was drinking with Alan last week, Alan complained to me that he was so far away. Among the two ring magicians who came, the middle-aged gentleman had no intention of communicating with their group. Apart from meeting him once at Lakeview Manor, Sir Prisha had never shown his face again. Alan also speculated whether That knight looked down upon civilians without status."

"I don't think so."

Shade defended Sir Prisha:

"He's nothing more than an academic spy."

This should be told to the doctor to prevent him from making mistakes when he takes a peek.

"Um?"

The doctor raised his eyebrows, and Shade continued:

"I will give you the information about Sir Prisha's itinerary as soon as possible. Doctor, don't get too close. Although he only has five rings, his fighting power is very strong. You also saw this in Canary Manor. You just need to stay far away Just take a look and give a simple assessment...and don't fall in love with him."

In order to prevent mistakes, Xia De also made a special statement.

"Don't worry, as a ring warlock, I have more experience than you."

The doctor accepted Shade's commission, and of course Shade went to ask Princess Margaret for information about Sir Prisya's itinerary. The doctor plans to take a week to complete this matter. After all, he doesn't always have time. The visiting delegation will not stay in Tobesk for too long.

Before going to the Canary Manor where the princess stayed, Shade went home first and put down the things in his hands. At this time, there was only a cat taking a nap at home. It was around two o'clock in the afternoon, and this lazy cat did not even go downstairs to greet Shade.

But when Shade took out the "Epidemic Doctor Ring" from the red box, Mia quickly stood up from the window sill with a "meow~", and then ran to Shade's feet in small steps, rubbing his trousers docilely.

This cat is obviously interested in the "epidemic doctor ring".

"Leave it to you to play, but only one ring at a time."

Take off the "Metamorphosis Ring" from the cat's tail and hand it the "Epidemic Doctor Ring". Although she was a little dissatisfied, Mia happily ran to the window sill with her new toy in her mouth.

Saying goodbye to the cat playing with the ring at home, Shade took a carriage to Canary Manor on a snowy day.

After half a week of "learning foreign languages", Shade became quite familiar with Canary Manor, where the princess stayed. The servants here all knew that Shade was the princess's friend in Tobesk, so they led him directly into the mansion.

Unfortunately, on this Monday afternoon, Princess Margaret was having a tea party with local aristocrats and ladies. Shade, who originally wanted to wait, soon noticed Miss Sylvia through the badge on her chest. The witch also knew that Shade had arrived, so she asked the maid to invite Shade over.

Miss Sylvia's nominal identity is Princess Margaret's mathematics teacher and personal physician. The room assigned to her in the manor is very close to the princess's bedroom. This is a room with a separate bathroom, dressing room, reception room, study room and bedroom. It was specially prepared by Delrayon to prevent more than one distinguished person from visiting the delegation.

But even so, in Shade's opinion, this is still the witch who lives in the shabbiest environment among the witches he knows. If Miss Carina, Miss Aurora or Granny Cassandra go out of town to do business, there is a high probability that they will directly buy a small manor as a temporary residence.

"Did you get the pyroxene yesterday?"

The witch sitting on the sofa asked after the maid closed the door. Her short black shawl hair seemed to be longer than the last time she saw her. Miss Sylvia was wearing a light red dress.

"Yes, the process went quite smoothly."

Shade nodded and sat on the short sofa on the side. This position was facing the window, with heavy snow falling outside.

"Miss Carina sent you a letter, but you probably haven't received it yet. Tomorrow morning, you go to the Duchess's manor, and I will go too. We want to talk to you about the fourth chosen one. , and the pyroxene in your hand."

"Of course it's no problem. I hope it won't snow again tomorrow."

Shade said, leaning comfortably on the back of the sofa:

"I'm here to see His Highness today. When will His Highness's tea party end?"

"There's still about an hour left."

The witch said, staring at Shade:

"Your performance in the concert hall last night was really amazing. I dare say that even the witch would not be like you in the fourth ring... The sword you held last night was... .No, you don’t have to answer me.”

She smiled and shook her head, staring into Shade's eyes:

"Maybe in the near future, you will take the initiative to tell me, right? It's like Miss Carina knows most of your secrets."

She didn't give Shade a chance to speak, picked up the document bag on the coffee table and threw it to him:

"After leaving Willendale, I gave myself a short vacation, but I still have to go back after all. Today is Monday, and we will stay in Tobesk for about ten days, so we will go back to China next week, otherwise we will not be able to catch up with the New Year. It’s the last minute. I’m planning to use the cash in hand to invest in some properties after I go back. Maybe you can give me some advice.”

When Shade opened the document bag, the witch continued:

"The vice-president of the Truth Society you mentioned not long ago relied on the local Witte family to appear under a false identity. I investigated the investments of the Witte family in recent years, which gave me a lot of inspiration."

Sure enough, the investment plan in the document envelope included bicycles, diesel four-wheel motorcycles, etc. that Ms. Paavo had mentioned. Of course, Miss Sylvia is more concerned about Carsonlik's industry.

"Of course these are good."

Xia De gave his own suggestions while looking through the documents. Although the foreigner was only a science and engineering student in a certain institution of higher learning in his hometown, his knowledge was still somewhat useful.

He knows the specific application scenarios of those brand-new inventions, and has experienced technological conveniences that have not yet been experienced in this era. He can give quite a lot of constructive suggestions on the topic of investing in the steam industry and new inventions.

Miss Sylvia listened carefully, asked questions from time to time, and then waited for Shade's answer. Although Shade had little knowledge of some issues, at least he could give some ideas.

"I didn't expect that in addition to space and mathematics, you also have great talents in investment and new inventions."

There are four projects in the document bag that are favored by the witch, and they are all industries and factories around Willondale City. The simple discussion took more than forty minutes. When Shade, who was thirsty and thirsty, picked up the tea cup and drank tea, the long-black-haired witch became more and more satisfied as she looked at Shade and couldn't help but sigh:

"If it was me who met you instead of Miss Carina first, maybe we would have made enough profit to buy your house by now."

"Miss Aurora also said this."

Shade said, but the witch with long brown wavy hair made other invitations at the bonfire party.

"Shivi Avora from the third seat? It seems that you have a really good relationship with the Council."

Miss Sylvia teased, and then asked Xiang Shade:

"Are you interested in investing with me? You should also have some savings, how about taking out some symbolically, and then running these industries with me? Although it is in Willendale, I think you should be able to find a way to start from the trust. Besker travels to other cities as casually as you would in Huntington, the city of red wine.”

"invest?"

Although he knew that Miss Sylvia had not given up on him becoming a witch's apprentice, and invited him to invest together in order to further bind the interests of the two, Shade was still a little moved.

He currently has a five-digit savings, but the gold pounds will always be spent, especially after entering Central, the expenses will be even greater. Although the wealth gained from the Ring Warlock's adventures is large, it is not a fixed income after all. If possible, Xia De also wants to have a fixed income from industry, not to mention making a fortune, but at least to meet daily expenses.

Before he completes the path of sublimation to the twelve gods, he is destined to live as a mortal for a long time. As an ordinary person, it is absolutely impossible to have no money in hand, especially Xia De's greedy "want it all." It was impossible for him to live on Lesia's savings, Dorothy's royalties, or Luvia's salary, let alone rely on the Duchess's territory to support his family.

After all, the profession of detective can only be used as a tool for interest and social relations. In this booming steam age, if you want to make a lot of money, you still have to consider investments and factories.

"A detective who has his own property, gets a fixed income every month, and lives in the Saint Teresa Square neighborhood?"

Shade thought about it in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

But the problem is that if you agree to Miss Sylvia's conditions, there is actually no essential difference between relying on Miss Carina's Saladir County to support your family.
