Whispering Verse

Shade lowered his head and continued to handle the steak on the plate, then asked:

"So, are you sure that the pharmacist lady is Audrey Edwards?"

"Yes, it is most likely that psychopath. There is a fateful connection between the Great Witch and the Great Witch. I quite approve of my sixth sense on this matter."

She did not forget to warn Shade:

"Although she is normal sometimes, no one knows what she will do when she goes crazy. Although the Speaker said two years ago that she was completely recovered, she never acted with us. I don't even remember the last time When did you meet her in reality? Don’t forget, her wanted order was only lifted some time ago. Audrey Edwards, the well-educated, beautiful, and noble person you have come into contact with Witches are completely different."

"But the Witch Detection Badge didn't respond."

"When did you trust alchemy items so much?"

Miss Carina asked back, using a white porcelain spoon to gently scoop up the cream mushroom soup, and then handed the spoon to Shade across the table.

Shade then stood up slightly and tasted the soup in the spoon, then frowned:

"It smells really weird."

"When you asked me to taste that, you didn't care whether I accepted the taste or not."

The red-haired witch said lightly. Shade's face turned red and he didn't know what to say. The witch smiled ambiguously:

"Before I asked you to find five treasures for me that day, I never thought that a cautious, humble, low-key and calm knight would be able to do so many tricks. Should I thank Anat, Louisa and little Lesia?"

"Oh, let's not talk about this topic. Let's continue talking about Green Lake... In other words, the witch detection badge is useless? That's right. There are so many witches in the fifth era, and there will always be ways to avoid mutual detection. . Moreover, I was never able to get within one meter of her, so the badge and my perception could not work better."

Xia De was thoughtful and suddenly asked:

"Are you sure Miss Audrey Edwards has not mentioned that she had any brothers or sisters?"

"No. Not only did she never mention it, I can even confirm that she really didn't. Shade, you have to know that twin brothers and sisters have a special connection in the occult sense, so if you have such relatives, yes We need to inform each other.”

The witch said with certainty.

"That would be quite interesting."

Shade raised his hand and touched Mia who was squatting on the high stool next to him. He had already thought of quite a few possibilities in his mind, but these all needed to be verified. If the pharmacist lady is really a witch, then the possibility that she is the chosen one cannot be ruled out.

The red-haired duchess watched his actions of stroking the cat and his serious face divided into light and dark sides by light and shadow, and she admired her ability in choosing a lover:

"Speaking of which, are you the chosen one from space?"

She asked again:

"Yin Luna also informed me of the results of the church's interrogation. The fragments of poems from the Mirror Association also included you as a suspect. In addition, your [Space-Time] spirit rune, and Sylvia's space talent on you Full of praise. Have you ever doubted yourself? In fact, the Parliament also preserved some fragments of poems about the chosen ones in [Space]. Although the above information is not as directional as the part of the Mirror Association, at least it is not Eliminate your suspicion."

"If I didn't understand my own situation, I would probably doubt myself first. But I am not the chosen one, and I cannot be any chosen one."

"Something to do with Luvia Anat?"

The witch raised her eyebrows, but Shade didn't answer, so she didn't ask further:

"Tifa."

The duchess waved her hand to the side, so Tifa brought a heart-shaped glass bottle and dripped the liquid into Shade's glass.

"What's the meaning?"

Shade was puzzled.

“Make our nightlife more interesting.”

The duchess looked at her lover sideways and said with a smile.

Shade touched Mia and frowned slightly:

"Ma'am, are you looking down on me?"

"No, no, of course not. I have learned my lesson. This is just a potion to enhance the mood."

With that said, Tifa also dripped the liquid into her glass. This potion is probably similar to the essence in Shade's pink vial, but the effect is extremely weakened.

The two picked up their glasses and clinked them above the candlelight dinner table. Because of the two people's movements, the candle's flame swayed, flickering with ambiguous light and shadow. The beautiful witch smiled, looking at the young man stroking the cat across the table, probably looking forward to tonight's excitement.

(Little Mia is running...)

On Thursday morning, because the maids helped prepare breakfast, little Mia did not wake up Shade, which allowed Shade to get up later.

Speaking of which, Shade thought that real princesses like Lesia and Carina, sleeping on a bed like his own, would be like the "Princess and the Pea" in their hometown's fairy tales, unable to rest well due to discomfort. So when he woke up this morning and thought about this, he asked the witch in his arms what she thought of this bed.

Lady Mi Mihuhu misunderstood and whispered:

"I have asked my maids to clean out the hair of different colors as much as possible every time they clean. Otherwise, do you want me to change the bed every time I come here?"

She was taller than Luvia, Dorothy, and Lesia, and the feeling of Shade embracing her was very different from the other girls. The Duchess, who rarely got up early unless there were special circumstances, was not very willing to leave Shade's bed at seven o'clock, so she pulled Shade's arm and asked him to sleep a little longer.

That kind of lazy, coquettish voice is absolutely impossible to appear on any other occasion. Even outsiders who pride themselves on being determined and strong-willed are inevitably affected by the witch. So much so that when he sat down at the dining table on this sunny morning, he was still marveling at the power of the witch.

"The weather is really nice today. There is no fog in the city."

"Tobesk, it's not foggy every day."

Shade actually hadn't thought about whether to go to the Green Lake area today. He caused trouble in Green Lake yesterday, so he might as well avoid the limelight today. Although today is the day when the Kasenlik negotiating delegation officially arrives in the Green Lake area, the first day of negotiations will not begin until tomorrow.

In addition to missing some fish bones, he didn't think that he had anything important to do there for the time being, so after having breakfast and sending Miss Carina away, he hesitated to go out immediately and considered I wonder if the Edwards family report should be written first.

Around nine o'clock, a strange light shone in the study. It was Miss Denister who informed Shade through the poem manuscript page that they could meet. She seemed to think that Shade might not be carrying this relic, so she also said that if Shade saw the news after a few hours, then they would meet again tonight.

"Luckily I didn't go out."

More than ten minutes later, the Great Library of St. Byrons, located in the far north, once again welcomed Shade's projection.

With the arrival of spring, Miss Librarian's outfit has also changed. Miss Denister sat on the soft sofa across the coffee table:

"Good morning, Shade, I'm glad you still remember that I once asked you to report to me about your studies every once in a while. What, do you have any good news to tell me recently? For example, you have Promoted to the seventh ring?"

She smiled and joked and put down the "Ring of the Moon: Lunar Eclipse" written in an ancient language. The two young students who helped arrange the ceremony also left here. Shade's eyes swept over one of them, a girl with horns on her head and a thin black tail.

"A descendant of a hybrid demon, not an evil spirit demon from the third era, but a real demon. This is a rare student, but it is not unheard of in St. Byrons."

Miss Denister explained, Shade nodded:

"I am still in the sixth ring for the time being... It will only be a month before I am promoted to the sixth ring, and it won't be that fast. I came here this time because of the Edwards matter. I investigated a lot of useful information. Information."

In fact, it is about how to use the power of the unicorn, but this kind of request for help can be mentioned at the end. This is also a conversation skill that Shade has summarized.

"Oh? I didn't expect it to happen so soon. Did you get the news from the nobles of Delarion, or did you get the news from Kasenric?"

The sorceress of the Thirteenth Ring was a little surprised. She sat upright on the sofa and prepared to listen to Shade's narrative.

"No, I went to Green Lake and landed on the foggy island."

When they were in Randall Valley, Miss Daniste knew that Shade could move in long distances, so Shade did not hide the source of her information.

"This surprises me. Please continue."

"I found a total of four Edwards who left Green Lake 128 years ago, and they are..."

He first told the news about the four people in Hohenheim that he got from Mr. Edmund, and then mentioned the Fulen brothers who he met unexpectedly during the riding competition around the city, and finally talked about the people on the island. A family tree similar to the root system of a large tree.

"There are six people in the sixth generation Edwards, five people in the fifth generation, and four people in the fourth generation who escaped from the island. As for the third generation, in addition to the father of the four brothers, Pride Edwards, there are one boy and one boy. Daughters, namely Envy Edwards and Gratonne Edwards, but the former died young, and the latter did not get married and had no descendants. The second generation was composed of two siblings. The eldest sister Rust also died young, and the younger brother Si Los produced the third generation. The first generation, the origin of that root map, was a man named Klein Edwards."

When Shade mentioned the picture, he did not say that it was a clue given by the pharmacist lady, but said that he just discovered the picture by accident.
