Whispering Verse

"Deal with him?"

Only a third of the sun was still above the horizon, and the setting sun made the shadows of Shade and the blue-eyed girl sway together:

"I am not a judge, nor am I a policeman. I have no right to judge others. I have always been doing things that make me happy."

He took out the piece of curtain he had brought from the casino, twisted it into a rope, and used the "live rope trick" to put the rope around the unconscious man's neck. The rope dragged him towards the tree, and finally hung him in the tree above the tombstone:

"After all, two people died because of him."

Shade used his fingers to block the eyes of little Mia, ignoring the claws of the cat's little claws. He looked up and watched the body shake a few times, and the living person quickly turned into a dead person.

"Then, you have completed the fourth task."

Miss Elise also looked up at the body, and then sighed softly:

"The sunset, the big tree, the tombstone under the big tree, and the corpse on the big tree, this is a very good picture. I am very good at oil painting, but I paint more portraits."

She and Shade turned around and walked along the stone path between the cemeteries to leave:

"I know that you care about the truth about the 'Brilliant Messenger', so I will give you the last task now."

Shade turned to look at the girl walking side by side:

"Please tell me."

She also turned to look at him at this time, her blue eyes filled with water, and Shade was sure that he saw the lightless ocean in those eyes. Her tone was very solemn:

"Please save a little girl who could never have been born, who would have died. Please save her no matter what."

Shade then asked:

"Where is that girl now? In front of me?"

"Meow~"

The cat complained when it saw Miss Elise's hand pressing on Shade's chest very impolitely:

"She is not here, she is in a very distant place that only you can reach."

Both of them stopped, and Shade looked down at the hand on his chest:

"But there are still some things I don't understand about helping her. For example, is that girl a boat or a dragon?"

The blue-eyed girl pursed her lips and looked at him closer and closer under the sunset.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xia De asked again:

"If you can't even give me this kind of help, then tell me, what can I get after completing these five tasks? Just the historical information of the Radiant Messenger? Or, just the anchor ornament?"

"what do you want?"

She asked, her long black hair under the hat still looking so beautiful against the sunset. Lesia and Dorothy once joked about whether Shade preferred red hair or blonde hair, but to be honest, Shade actually liked black people like Dantifa, Grace, Helen and Miss Elise. Fa, he actually prefers it.

[So, the girl you like the most is actually a girl with black hair, purple eyes, cat ears and a big tail? 】

Shade did not answer "her" question.

"I want a boat."

Shade stared into those blue eyes and said. When he saw the girl in front of him suddenly showing a shy expression, he realized that he had said the wrong thing:

"No, no, I'm sorry, I mean, I want to have a ship that can take me to distant places in the future."

The girl who just turned her head looked at him again:

"My Lord, the giver of dreams, will fulfill the dreams of children. Shade Hamilton, your dreams will also be fulfilled after this test. May you and I both enjoy every dream."

She said Shade's name and stretched out her other hand to touch Shade's face, but Shade caught her wrist. So Miss Elise put her right hand on Shade's chest, Shade's left hand grabbed her left hand, and the two looked at each other in the sunset.

The cat did not disturb their desire to see each other's soul from each other's eyes, until the old woman walking tremblingly on crutches passed by on the stone path and whispered, "Today's young people" and "This is a cemetery." "Slutty men and women" and "How to disturb the deceased like this", Xia De took the initiative to let go of the girl's hand.

Miss Eleser smiled again. She straightened the wide-brimmed hat she had been wearing at an angle, and walked side by side to the cemetery gate with Shade again:

"Have you helped a lot of people?"

She asked, and Shade, who was a little distracted, replied:

"Maybe, I won't specifically write down this kind of thing, as long as helping others can satisfy me."

Her smile was still bright, and Xia De also asked:

"When will we meet next? You said that every time you see me, you will tell me about this city. I still need your help."

"Next time? Please look forward to meeting you by chance again. Oh, I want to tell you a very important news this time, but I also have a request."

After making sure that she had walked out of the cemetery gate and would no longer be considered as disturbing the peace of the deceased, she pointed to her side face:

"Can you kiss me?"

She actually didn't wear makeup, but just like that, the skin on her face was already prettier than any girl who wore makeup. With a face as white as milk, no trace of pores could be seen even with Shade's eyesight, but he was not the kind of man to kiss others casually.

"Left cheek."

"Can I consider this a blackmail?"

He hugged little Mia on his shoulders and held her in front of him seriously - in fact, this look was not serious at all:

"At least I won't until I've completed my final mission."

Miss Elisa was not disappointed either, still looking at him with a smile:

"You should remember this, you owe me two kisses on the left cheek."

Without giving Shade a chance to ask why there were "two", she took a step forward with her hands behind her back, then looked at Shade with her back to the sun:

“The news this time is related to that cute little black cat.

It can have such a powerful soul not just because of simple thoughts and obsessions. There is some kind of power in the sewer that you are not aware of, making its soul extraordinarily powerful. Without your presence, that soul would be eroded by power sooner or later, so I said you gave it a light. "

Only the last part of the setting sun has yet to fall below the horizon. Because her back is to the sun, her face seems to be hidden in the shadows. Shade cannot see her expression at this time, he can only see the pair of glowing eyes. blue eyes.

"Shad, let's see you next time. Please complete the final mission and save the lost little girl. See you later."

Her figure seemed to melt into the light of the setting sun and completely disappeared. This is not an illusion, Shade can clearly feel the power of space.

(Little Mia is running.)

"Can you answer me a question?"

A few hours later, at the dining room table of a restaurant at No. 18 Tobesk-Silver Cross Avenue, Shade suddenly asked.

The red-haired duchess sitting next to Shade naturally would not refuse:

"What's the problem? Ever since I came to your house and invited you out for dinner, you've been thinking about something. Are you in trouble?"

She looked at Shade, her golden eyes filled with concern.

Shade shook his head:

"It's not troublesome. I'm just curious whether I have a constant charm. I met a girl in Yuewan. Although I almost know who she is, she has such an extraordinary attitude toward me. I still can’t understand the good feeling.”

The Duchess pursed her lips and smiled, and answered him while cutting the veal steak in front of her:

"At least for me, you do have charm."

"Carina, I am asking the question very seriously."

"Okay, so Tifa, has Shade ever charmed you?"

She asked the black-haired maid who was standing aside to serve the masters. The maid with a good figure answered:

"Mr. Hamilton has been charming me."

Although the content of her words was embarrassing, there was no other emotion at all when the sentences came out of her mouth. The head maid who would never lie to Miss Carina still answered the question loyally this time. The other maids in the box all smiled, so the witch continued to smile and said to Shade:

"Look, you really have the charm spell on you."

"Okay, I know I haven't. I'm just curious about Miss Eleser's attitude. Forget it, let's have a good meal first. After dinner, I'll go back and look through the information and use the time key. The adventure of the Sunless Sea is also It’s time to end.”

As he spoke, Shade also touched the cat that was eating something with its head down.

And the beautiful red-haired witch asked with a smile:

"Speaking of which, how is your resistance to charm? You drink that essence as water. I think potions with similar effects should be ineffective on you. So how about charm?"

"I don't know, no one has ever used this kind of magic on me."

Then Miss Carina became interested:

"It just so happens that I know this kind of thaumaturgy. Come on, look me in the eyes, and I'll give it a try."

Shade then looked up at her, and Shade's appearance was immediately reflected in his golden eyes. Shade looked into her eyes with a smile, and neither of them spoke for a while. He was not sure whether the witch's magic had been used, because he did not feel anything wrong with his spirit or soul.

Shade didn't show any abnormality, but the face of the witch who looked at him turned redder and redder, and finally she took the lead to look away.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Shade asked, and then was patted gently by the red-haired witch:

"The spell failed and I was bitten by the [Love Spell]. Now I love you even more. You have to be responsible for me. I will spend the night at your house tonight."

The maids laughed softly, and little Mia was still eating. Shade faced those smiling golden eyes and laughed himself. This is another little trick of the witch, but Shade really likes it.
