Whispering Verse

At this moment, although Yin Luna Bayas felt dizzy, her thoughts were extremely clear.

Although Yin Luna mostly listens to Shade and Luvia's arrangements when making plans, her wisdom is not low. Otherwise, after the Battle of Pantanal, we would not be able to use the "Wise Man's Pyroxene" to perform thaumaturgy:

"Why is the future you simulated not an extension of the present?"

She asked, although Shade's non-existent future was just a game, she still panicked about it. This panic even defeated the fear caused by the fact that the other party was an unknown relic:

"Are you really saying 'what if'? Tell me why Shade doesn't exist!"

In the girl's stern questioning, the light of the scale behind her became more restrained and profound.

The man who slowly rolled up the parchment took a small step back calmly:

"I am indeed assuming that this is indeed not a simulation of the 'future'. The protagonist of the stage, even if you can check different versions of the script, how can all the scripts include the audience off the stage?"

Yin Luna frowned, and after just thinking for a moment, she fully understood what he said:

"Without Shade... the audience off the stage... different versions of the script... Shade once asked me, and others, if it was now the sixth... ....”

The dark golden scale behind her shook for a moment, then became more stable. At this moment, the seventeen-year-old girl stood in the alley, as if she saw the river of time flowing around her, and her doubts were easily solved. Shade had been searching for the truth for more than half a year, but she completely pieced it together in just a few minutes.

The scale briefly turned into a rapidly rotating life ring, and the whisper - [real time] was added, and she already understood everything:

"Different scripts, it's not a simulated future, it's the past... You mean, the Sixth Age has experienced a reboot? And more than once!"

She held her breath:

"Also, there is Luvia who never took the initiative to say that she was cursed by time. Luvia also said that Shade is a person outside of fate. Several restarts are related to Luvia? Now, it is not real The Sixth Age?”

Her eyes were fixed on the man in front of her, and the smile on "If"'s face became even brighter:

"Yes, your intelligence is stronger than I thought. It's so easy to piece together the truth from the fragments. It's amazing, very amazing! Yes, this is indeed not the real sixth era. You are right, it is indeed restarted. It happened more than once, but no matter who it is, they can’t tell you what happened.”

Yin Luna touched her nosebleed that was still bleeding, and the expression on her face became more serious:

"So why is there Shad in the Sixth Era this time? What does the new Shad mean to the world? What happened in the past Sixth Era? Why didn't the departing ancient gods and the old gods come to save the world? This world on the brink of doomsday?”

"You can find the answers to these questions the next time we meet. Do you remember? I'm going to play three games with you, and this is just the first one. Please think carefully about what you have to do to survive in the complicated past. In this "what if" game with only two games left, find the truth you want to know."

He put away the parchment roll and bowed respectfully to the girl in front of him:

"Thank you for everything you have done for this world, the chosen one of balance. You are the most special among all the chosen ones, but you are also the same as them. You are not simply good or evil, you are just Do what suits your heart.”

"You want to leave? Then where will you show up next time?"

Yin Luna asked again.

"Fate will arrange everything, just like today's meeting. Oh, please hide my appearance from everyone. This is not a request, but for your own good. Once the people around you know about me, then the last chance will be lost. ."

"what chance?"

The man shook his head:

"The opportunity to save the person you are in love with, he or she is on the road to the most tragic end, and you, and only you, can... what you have been hiding all this time There are more secrets than this, so concealing my appearance is nothing to you, right?"

He slowly backed away, his body fading and becoming transparent. He disappeared completely before his body came into contact with the alley wall.

"What if... there are two left."

Yin Luna clenched her fist and took out her handkerchief to wipe the blood from her face. After the severe headache and dizziness got better, I walked out of the alley.

On the other side, the five-person team that had been busy all night had also left.

Priest August returned to the church, and Luvia returned the staff to Shade and had to go to work at the Prophet's Association. Therefore, Dorothy was the only one who returned to Saint Teresa Square with Shade and Mia and had breakfast on Silver Cross Avenue.

Being a writer not only makes a lot of money, but also has great flexibility in working hours, making it a perfect career. Although it was okay to stay up all night, after returning home, the blonde girl still wanted to catch up on her sleep and took Shade to rest together:

"Look at your appearance. When you turned into a cat and held down the coffin just now, you looked like there was nothing left to love in the world. It really scared me. I know this is the influence of the relic, so I took a break. Well, Shade, don’t you have the thaumaturgy of [Moon Dream]?”

Dorothy's tenderness made Shade unable to refuse, so they slept from eight o'clock in the morning until noon on Friday. What woke them up at noon was not Xiao Mia who wanted to have lunch or the people playing outside the window, but the knock on the door downstairs.

"Who is the one?"

The writer yawned and sat up. Shade, who had woken up from the moon dream, felt that he was fine, so he put on his slippers and went downstairs to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, standing in front of the lively square background was Yin Luna. The seventeen-year-old girl had an uneasy look on her face. After entering the door, she even reached out to touch Shade's arm to confirm that he was not a phantom but a real existence, and then she breathed a real sigh of relief.

"What's wrong with you? Are you in trouble?"

Xia De asked with some confusion, Yin Luna shook her head:

"That's right. I want to hear you talk about how to meet the 'Lady of the Lake'."

Shade was a little surprised, but still nodded:

"No problem, but since you want to go to Huntingdon City to meet the angels, do you need me to accompany you?"

"No, no, I won't go there myself. I will go there in the next story... I want to keep it a secret for now, okay?"

She pursed her lips and asked Xiang De.

"sure."

Shade didn't ask any more questions, but told Yin Luna about his experience of entering the "Lake of Cherubim". Yin Luna even took out her notebook to record. After writing, she returned to her usual demeanor:

"Are you okay last night? There was a lot of noise. I went to participate in the investigation early in the morning, but the church has found no clues so far."

"Of course we are fine, but we didn't expect that the angel-level relic would almost break through containment. Now that relic has been taken away from Tobesk, there will be no problem."

"That's good."

Yin Luna nodded. Because of her strange mood, she didn't even say anything about having lunch with Sha De. Instead, she waved goodbye with concern and prepared to leave.

"Yin Luna, are you really okay?"

Shade took her hand and asked worriedly, but Yin Luna still shook her head:

"Of course it's okay."

Shade looked at her suspiciously and said nothing. The seventeen-year-old girl's face turned red because of such naked gaze. In Shade's ear, "she" said softly:

[No obvious problem is perceived. She is going through a special menstrual cycle. 】

"I don't need to know that."

Xia De responded in his heart, and then said to Yin Luna:

"Feel sorry."

"Sorry for what?"

She asked doubtfully, and then saw Shade lowering his head and taking her finger in his mouth. Yin Luna Emilia Bayas swore that even when she faced the unknown relic just now, she was not as nervous as she was now. She felt like her face was about to explode with heat, and even her limbs were trembling from shyness and excitement.

The voice in Shade's ear said again:

[There are no obvious problems. Maybe, you should have some confidence in her. 】

Shade nodded slightly and removed Yin Luna's fingers. Although I know what I did was inappropriate, it was at least better than forcefully kissing Yin Luna:

"Yin Luna, if anything happens, you must tell me and Luvia. No matter what trouble you have, we will help you solve it, yes, any trouble."

"I know, you don't have to tell me this so seriously."

The girl's face was flushed, and her thoughts had already wandered to nowhere. As for the "what if" thing, it was temporarily forgotten.

Shade was still a little worried, so he suggested:

"You haven't had lunch yet? Let's go eat together in a moment. Oh, Miss Dorothy Louisa is going with us. Yes, she is my team member, the woman who wrote "Hamilton Detective Stories" writer."

"OK."

Yin Luna nodded again, the emotions filling her heart completely covering up her troubles.

There will always be worries, big and small, in life. For Yin Luna Bayas, a small amount of happiness is enough to overwhelm those worries at the other end of the scale. She never asks for much, but even a good-natured girl will definitely show her strength if someone tries to take away the things she cherishes.

In fact, Yin Luna and Dorothy knew each other, but they were not very familiar with each other. The seventeen-year-old girl knew about the relationship between the female writer and Shade, and of course Dorothy could see Yin Luna's attitude towards Shade.

The lunch time at noon that day was quite pleasant. As a fan of "Hamilton Detective Stories", Yin Luna was happy to have lunch with Dorothy. Coupled with the fact that Shade was there, it was simply two joys superimposed on one another.

During lunch, Xia De also briefly explained last night's actions to Yin Luna. When talking about little Mia, Shade glanced at it worriedly, worried that a night of sleeplessness would have an impact on the cat's health.

But in fact, little Mia was squatting on the high stool with great interest at this time, waiting for Shade to feed her. She didn't look tired or sleepy at all.

"It probably sleeps too much."

Shade stretched out his hand and touched the cat's little head. The cat squinted obediently and made a "meow" sound.

The lunch venue was a private club in the city, which Dorothy took the two of them to. Of course, there is reason to suspect that the money will be recorded in Lesia's account in the end. Security is very high here, so sensitive topics can be discussed. Seeing Shade touching the cat, Dorothy smiled and said to Yin Luna:

"You haven't seen the cat Shade turned into, have you? It looks really good."

Yin Luna showed an interested look, and Xia De immediately shook his head:

"Don't look at me like this. I will never change. If you want to see a cat, you can change it yourself."

The writer lady smiled broadly:

"Shad, transformation depends on talent. Do you need me to repeat the content of the second-grade basic spell course at St. Byrons? The transformation masters under the ring magician system are divided into two categories. One category is born with extremely high abilities. Transformation talents and corresponding spiritual runes, and the other type imitates Dru Yin from the ancient era, following the way of nature and living closely with animal companions, thereby obtaining the corresponding transformation ability."

"I think Shade should belong to the latter category, and little Mia is his natural spirit."

Yin Luna said with a spoon, and asked Dorothy if she wanted to add the scene where the detective turns into a cat into the story.

"It is indeed a very interesting plot, but unfortunately the detective stories I write generally follow non-supernatural rules."

The blond girl felt sorry, but she had a good conversation with Yin Luna. After lunch that day, when Yin Luna was about to return to Blackstone Security Company, the two exchanged business cards. Dorothy even invited Yin Luna to go out with her to collect information when she had time. Yin Luna was also very happy to receive the invitation.

Shade found a taxi for Yin Luna and saw her off at the door of the club. And when the girl with long brown hair waved goodbye to Shade and the blonde writer at the window, she had already made her decision.

No matter what, no matter what the cost, she will hold the hands of those she cherishes and loves. She controls the balance of the scales, and she is the one who dominates everything. The protagonist on the stage must pull everything, and the new story script must not be a tragedy.

[The current world, the sixth era, 1854 in the universal calendar, New Year, the month of sowing. The sound of horse hooves fades away, and the spring sunshine is warm. The departing child of destiny has already made his choice, and the love and sour emotions are like light feathers and fluctuating silk strings. On the stage of unknown destiny, new possibilities are added because of you. This is a story that has never been told, this is a choice that has never been made. Foreigner who is caught up in love, how on earth are you going to repay the heart you owe? 】

Shade, who was holding Mia and watching the carriage drive away with Dorothy, was suddenly startled:

"Huh? Wait, what did you say? Why are you saying this now? I just had lunch with Dorothy and Yin Luna. What do you mean by saying this to scare me? This meal is very important ?"

He looked around, fearing that an unknown relic would suddenly pop up, or that the evil god would appear in Tobesk again.

But this is just an ordinary city street, and everything is fine.

At least for now, everything is fine.
