Whispering Verse

Miss Aurora watched Shade play with the newly acquired weapons, while Sirius continued to read the letter:

"The conditions for using the relic [Star Trace] are very strict. You must have 'Moon' or 'Light' or derivative spirit runes related to them. Otherwise, you will not be able to draw the long bow. Inject your own spirit into the unexpanded bow. , you can expand it, and you can restore it by saying 'moon' in ancient Chinese, or it can restore itself automatically after a period of time after being released."

The ancient rune was written on the letter, but Sirius couldn't read it. Even Miss Aurora and Miss Benanis couldn't read it. Fortunately, writing was never a problem for Shade.

"The classification of Sage level (Level 2) is not only due to its own powerful effect, but also because of its destructiveness. Ordinary drawing of the bow will not cause other phenomena, but once too many spirits are used, it will cause the 'starfall' effect. Simple In other words, it will attract meteorites; frequent use will also cause meteorite disasters. However, if used during the day, the possibility of attracting 'starfall' is less, but the power of the relic will also be reduced."

"So what is the containment method?"

Shade asked Sirius, who continued to read the letter:

"That piece of red cloth is a temporary containment item, with the divine rune ceremony of the Church of the Dawn on it. The formal containment method is to soak the unexpanded [Star Trace] in clear water. When night comes, [Star Trace] will be stored according to the day. The moon phases in March show different phantoms of the moon in the water.”

"The church has put a lot of thought into preparing this gift for you."

Miss Benanis said, and Miss Aurora nodded:

"The Zhengshen Church will really give you face this time."

"I know that the gift is definitely not an agnostic-level relic. That kind of relic cannot be used normally. However, I thought it would be an angel-level relic. The Church of the Five Gods has a profound foundation and countless properties, but it only produced one Sage Level weapons?”

Despite the complaints, Shade was pleased with it. The strength attribute suits him, not to mention that this weapon may have been used by the ancient god Silver Moon Sage.

Hearing what Shade said, the two witches laughed:

"The higher the level of relics, the more dangerous they are. The highest level of danger among the relics that can be circulated in the black market today must only be the Keeper level (level 3). This is why there are indeed many angel-level and sage-level relics housed by the church and the three major academies. , but not many of them can be used, and even fewer are suitable for you.

The angel-level relic [Night Watch] in your hand is the top angel-level relic, and there are few in the history of the material world that can compare with it. No one has ever heard of the angelic staff in your hand. Shade, look, our council has so many private collections, but apart from Megan’s [Tome of Desire] being angel-level, have you ever heard of anyone else who has an angel-level weapon that can be carried around? "

"I heard someone mention my name. Oh, good morning, Shade, you have such a beautiful bow."

Audrey walked in from the door and said that the wise witch easily identified what it was:

"[Star Trace]? The church is actually willing to give this to Shade?"

"Xia De still dislikes it. What the church gave is not an angel-level relic."

Miss Benanis said with a smile. Meghan took off the gold and silver book hanging around her neck and turned it into the "Book of Desire". Then she turned the book into a long bow style, and Xia Xia Virtue's bows were put together:

"Would you like to go out and try the power of this relic with me? This island is mine, and I don't mind if you shoot anything."

The effect of [Star Scar] is quite good. When drawing the bow to aim, Shade's field of vision will become farther, and this bow has the function of assisting aiming and correcting the arrow direction. As for the power of arrows, under the same consumption at close range, the attack area is not comparable to the [Moonlight Slash] struck by Shade, but the single-point attack power is stronger than the normal [Moonlight Slash]. Archery is more troublesome after all.

However, the range of [Moonlight Slash] is limited by distance, but the range of [Star Trace] is extremely far, and the power of the arrows shot will never be reduced due to distance.

Therefore, the appearance of this bow can be regarded as giving Shade an extra long-range attack weapon. More importantly, in its reduced state, it is only about the size of a palm, so it can be carried around in a bag, which is much better than the [Night Watch].

[Perhaps, you can consider carrying a piano case with you. 】

"She" gave the suggestion with a smile. Shade thought about the scene and shook his head violently.

More importantly, in Shade's opinion, the function of this newly acquired relic is not actually its power, but that it can be used to shoot [Aiken'ora - Arrow of the Chosen].

The angel-level relic arrow was also brought by Shade to participate in the Battle of Green Lake this time. If Shade shoots it himself, the qualified ring warlock who is hit will become the "chosen one of knowledge and wisdom". If you want to exert the power of the arrow, Shade needs to shoot the arrow with others.

Without Shade's participation, no one can use its power.

Moreover, [Aiken'ola - Arrow of the Chosen] can only be fired with a special crossbow. For this reason, Shade ordered an alchemical crossbow from Old John at a high price and was prepared for it to be damaged after shooting the arrow. , unfortunately not used. I originally thought about borrowing Megan and Audrey’s [Crimson of Desire], but in the end I didn’t use it.

But now that we have [Star Trace], we no longer have to worry about having arrows but no bow.

These gifts from the church were an unexpected surprise. Shade never thought that he would be rewarded and praised by someone for having done so many things. Sometimes he also looked forward to Luvia's praise. Therefore, when I tried [Star Trace] with Audrey, I even felt that I was taking someone else's thing for nothing, and I was a little embarrassed.

After putting those items back home and returning to the hotel, he and Audrey walked to the old Edwards house.

Today is Sunday, and nearly eighty hours have passed since the Battle of Green Lake that ended early Thursday morning. As for the descendants of Edwards, how to arrange those souls and those living people became the last thing that Shade had to face.

Shade and Audrey had nothing important to do, so they walked side by side on the sunny island. Audrey seemed a little worried. She knew that after this incident, Shade's visits to the Green Lake area would probably become even less frequent, so she wondered if she should be bolder and do something unexpected.

At the same time, she also regarded this as a date, but it might also be the last date with Shade in the near future.

The right hand continued to expand until it transformed into Megan and walked hand in hand with her. Shade looked at the two sisters curiously. Even now, he still feels that this is magical.

"I heard from Luvia that you have met Miss Paavo?"

Audrey chose to open the topic, and Shade nodded. He had already talked about his experience on the island that night:

"After meeting her, she said that I would know some interesting things about your ancestors, and invited me to have time to witness the 'truth' they chose."

Before the final battle with Laplace Klein Howard, Shade didn't know much about this sentence. Now Shade probably knows that Miss Pavo must have learned some from the fortune teller. Doomsday things.

The two sisters, who have known the current president of the [Truth Society] for a long time, nodded:

"In my opinion, Miss Paavo is a genius who is not inferior to our ancestors. She is just not as old as our ancestors, otherwise she might become more terrifying than our ancestors."

This evaluation is quite exaggerated, but Shade knows that Megan and Audrey will not exaggerate this kind of thing casually.

He sighed and nodded slightly:

"It is really necessary to talk to Miss Pavo again in the future. In fact, I always thought that Miss Sylvia and her would have more topics in common. You know, they both like mathematics."

"Speaking of Sylvia, although I can't easily open the portal across half of the old continent like her, but after Edwards mastered the magic, after a while I was promoted to the twelfth level, and my space power will also be Enhanced.”

The three of them chatted side by side like this, walking through the forest trails, passing through the now increasingly empty town of Green Lake, climbing the road under the hills, and heading towards Edwards' old house.

Although the church's ring wizards are still active on the island, because Megan and Audrey's identity as "island owners" allows them to detect other people from a long distance, they avoid strangers along the way. human sight.

The Edwards old house is currently not open to the church. The barrier formed by the space force prevents others from approaching there. Therefore, there is no one else near the old house that should be the core of the island.

When Shade and his sisters arrived at the door of the old house courtyard, Meghan did not push the door open first, but stood on the high ground with Shade and looked at the town under the hills;

"The anomalies in space lead to anomalies in time. Even if no one maintains this town regularly, it will probably remain like this for hundreds of years."

"I feel like you're melancholy."

Shade looked at them, and the witch bit her lower lip:

"Ever since I became a ring sorcerer and a witch, I have been worrying and preparing for the final day of my family. Now that the nightmarish night is finally over, it's not a nightmare after you protect me."

They looked at Shade:

"It just feels like I suddenly have no purpose."

"There are still many things to do in the future. Of the thirteen chosen ones, only six have appeared now. Audrey, Megan, you must help me in the future."

Shade smiled and said:

"And you also have to help the Green brothers and sisters manage the real Green Lake Central Island. I heard that it is going to be renamed Paradise Island? After all, it is your hometown. Help it restore it to its original appearance. Oh, and guard it. The seal of this island will become your responsibility from now on, and the great witches of wisdom and knowledge will pass on this responsibility from generation to generation, unless you are willing to give this island to the church."

"When you say that, I feel like I'm really under a lot of pressure."

The witch with light brown shawl hair said softly, looking into Shade's eyes:

"Thanks."

"Do you need to thank me?"

The two sisters holding hands smiled and nodded, then surrounded Shade, each stretched out an arm to hug him, and kissed him.

In fact, this should be regarded as kissing the same person, but fortunately, the outsider has learned how to kiss two girls at the same time within this year, so he will not be in a hurry.

The late spring wind blows gently. Although it snowed yesterday, the temperature is not very low today. The sun shines on the small town under the hills, on the old Edwards house where various stories happened behind them, and on their shoulders.

The outsider knew that he had once again found the best ending to the story.

After Megan and Audrey returned to being one person, they easily took Shade across the area that was not open to the church. Meghan opened the closed courtyard door with just a slight push.

The people in the house probably guessed that Shade would come today or tomorrow, so they were ready to welcome them.

The door of the building was opened one step ahead of time. Sloth Edwards, the former tentacle evil creature and now a living person, as the oldest person in the family and the one who was temporarily responsible for managing the family after the death of the "ancestor", greeted them at the door. .

The Green siblings, who are still on the church's list of key surveillance targets, have arrived here before Shade and Megan. Therefore, except for Laplace Howard and Rust Edwards, the remaining 19 members of the Edwards family Members, dead and alive, are now gathered in this house. Besides them, Durut Gilles was also there, but he did not attend the rest of the party, but was in the room upstairs, waiting for Shade to find him.

The location of this special "Edwards Family Banquet" is no longer the basement or the banquet hall upstairs, but the family restaurant on the first floor with "family pedigree".

Although Megan and Audrey appeared together, including Shade as an "outsider", there were still 19 people sitting at the table. At one end of the long table covered with tablecloth, the seat belonging to the head of the family was finally taken by Shade. The green giant tree replaced the bloody tree, and he also replaced Laplace Howard.

Sunlight poured into the room from the window, illuminating the white tablecloth and the teacups in front of everyone. The living people are bathed in the light, and their eyes are looking at the young man on the main seat; the souls show a milky white luster in the sun. Maybe they were contradictory to each other in the past, but with the defeat of Laplace Howard, now Nothing matters anymore.

They probably talked about a lot of things to each other these days, but Shade didn't know that.

He could only see that on the wall between the windows, the family genealogy that was originally hidden was now fully revealed. An unknown person filled in the blank spaces with the names of the fifth and sixth generation family descendants.

Now that the family genealogy is complete, everything has come to an end.
