Whispering Verse

"Meow~"

After Iluna finished telling the story of the ancient god, the cat lying on Shade's lap purred probably because it felt so comfortable being touched by Shade.

Luvia nodded, but it was obviously not because of this topic that she came here this morning:

"Xia De, how is the situation over at Moon Bay?"

"It's still the same, but major organizations are surfacing, and the disaster of light is gradually emerging. The haze of the dragon is still shrouding the city, but the seven major families all have their own agendas. It's difficult for me to evaluate the behavior of those nobles. "

He briefly described the fight last night. Luvia nodded and said to Shade and Iluna:

"Although you, Shade, cannot be the Chosen One, and Iluna doesn't seem like a candidate to be the Chosen One of Light, this does not mean that you are not qualified to pull out the 'Sword of Light'. I have feelings for you. This is a request. During Operation Yuewan, you must do as many "just things" as possible. The so-called justice depends on your thoughts, original intentions, or what you actually did. I will not discuss this with you, but your actions must be Want justice.”

After a pause, he added:

"Of course, this is not a 100% requirement, but I just remind you to pay attention to this. If one of the two of you is the first to pull out the Sword of Light, we can have the upper hand even without holding the Chosen One Ceremony. "

"Luvia, do you know the ritual to obtain the 'Sword of Light'?"

Iluna asked in surprise, Shade also looked at her, the purple-eyed fortune teller smiled and shook her head:

"No, but I found some interesting information within the association. It's not easy. After all, I don't want others to know what I checked. Although the association does not have complete ritual records, at least the sword does exist in the information. Information. I won’t go into details about the information that Shade has already found out. The new news is that the Sword of Light will not cause harm to the righteous."

"Wait, you mean, if I am a righteous person, even if I stand motionless, the weapon forged by the ancient god's power will not hurt me if it is struck on me?"

Shade asked, Luvia shook her head:

"If it really stabs you, as long as the sword itself exists physically, it will definitely cause damage. But its special power will not have an effect on a just person. If the opponent of the sword is a just person, then it will only An ordinary long sword."

“But how exactly should justice be defined?”

The eighteen-year-old girl asked, and then she saw Shade and Luvia looking at her. The latter even said happily:

"Very good, Iluna. You who have the power of balance should think about this question more. But you should not seek answers from us. Instead, we should seek answers from you. After all, you are the one holding the scales. .”

Iluna was thoughtful, and Shade continued the topic:

"Even if we can't pull out the Sword of Light, as long as we are judged as righteous people, the greatest reliance of the Chosen People of Light will be useless to us. This is very interesting, but I worry about whether the 'Sword of Light' will be of any use to us. The judgment of righteousness is the same as the judgment of sinfulness by the 'chains of sin'."

He explained it carefully:

"Theoretically speaking, the Chain of Sins only takes effect on objects that have sins. But in my actual use, except for some very special circumstances, basically all intelligent life has sins, yes, all. So, does the Sword of Light? It has a similar effect. Except for very special circumstances, in fact, all intelligent life in this world has an 'unjust' side."

"This is not something we have to consider now. Let's do the things in front of us first."

Luvia said, and then reminded Iluna:

"The opponents this time are not only the [Dragon Eater Order] but also the [Light Worshipers Training Society]. Maybe your power can fight against the dragon, but what should you do when you encounter the kind of light that melts all things that Shade mentioned? ? Even Shade said that he needs to have reaction time to resist that strange light. What about you, Iluna? Be careful not to be too impulsive after arriving at Moon Bay this time. "

The eighteen-year-old girl nodded heavily, and then asked:

"Luvia, are you going to Moon Bay?"

"If the church asks the association for help this time like Green Lake did, and the association dispatches fortune tellers from the Old World to help Yuewan, I will sign up. My performance last time was pretty good, and I will definitely be selected as long as I sign up this time. If the association doesn't organize For similar activities, I haven’t taken my annual leave this year, so I can take leave and leave the local area for a while.”

This time Shade didn't say that he wouldn't let Luvia go to Moon Bay for safety reasons. Now that Luvia has reached the seventh level, he doesn't have to worry about her safety like before. The stories of the chosen ones are getting more and more dangerous time after time, so it is really necessary for everyone around them to adapt to the danger before the danger takes the initiative to affect them.

This is why Shade did not object too much, and Carina and Lesia asked Agelina to follow Tifa to the South Kingdom.

In addition to discussing the Sword of Light issue with Iluna and Shad, Luvia came here this morning to give Shad a divination tool:

"Aren't you trying to find the seven dragon scales corresponding to the seven major families? Since the dragon scale I have found has the power of the ancient gods, I tried to make this. I studied the power of the ancient gods and the chosen ones. Time is not short, and I have gained a little bit from studying Laplace Howard's information some time ago. He is indeed a genius. This can help you."

Luvia handed Shade a brass pocket watch, but after opening it, she discovered that it was actually a compass. The compass is very simple to use. The direction pointed by the pointer is the direction where the power of the "Ancient God - Dragon of Glory" is suspected to exist.

Although Luvia was not sure how accurate this item was, it could at least provide some help.

So an hour later, when Shade saw the witch at Belindel Manor in Moon Bay, he mentioned that in addition to the metal divination card she gave her that was fused with golden dragon scales, he also had a new "dragon scale" detector".

At first, the proud witch of "destiny" certainly didn't care:

"The divination card I gave you is enough. Others don't understand Yuewan, let alone the power of the ancient gods."

"That was made for me by my fortune teller friend out of town. Yes, it's the sorceress I mentioned."

So the great witch of fate was aroused to be competitive. While the maid Matilda looked at Shade with a strange expression, the countess raised her slender neck:

"That's really interesting. Can you let me see what the fortune teller made? I'm very curious about it."

Shade then handed over the pocket watch-style compass made by Luvia. The countess clicked open the watch cover, put the compass in the palm of her hand, turned it around twice, and then released two more A simple spell to detect alchemical items.

She frowned deeply, feeling that the situation was a little different than she thought. So she asked Shade to take out the "Queen" divination card. She compared the two "Dragon Scale Detectors" with each other. Her lips pursed and her brows seemed to frown deeper:

"You go visit your elf friend first. This compass is very interesting. I want to check it carefully and return it to you later."

"Of course, no problem. Where is Amelia now? In the bedroom?"

"She is in the basement with the little unicorn. She borrowed my alchemy laboratory. Speaking of which, will the female fortune teller who helped you make the compass come to Moon Bay to help you?"

She asked suddenly, and Shade nodded:

"Yes, but I'm not sure when. We'll introduce you to him then."

So Shade went to visit Emilia first. He was very happy that the elf girl didn't really just plan to read novels to kill the week.

And when Shade walked away, Miss Matilda, who knew the Countess' character very well, asked softly:

"Miss, this compass"

"It's awesome."

She is not stingy with her praise:

"The people who made the compass know the power of the ancient gods very well, even better than me. I can't take apart this compass, but I can tell just by observing it. Maybe the effect of this compass is not worse than my divination card, but the divination card But it is fused with a dragon scale and uses the resonance ability of seven dragon scales to achieve a great detection effect."

The witch took a deep breath, and the apprentice asked her teacher:

"Miss, can you guess who made it? There are probably few people in the material world who are better than you in the field of divination. I mean, I mean, there are not many people who are similar to you."

"I can't tell who it is, but this craft clearly has traces of the Prophet's Association."

She was still looking at the compass:

"But most of the fortune tellers in the material world of this era, except for special beings like me, have more or less connections with the Fortune Teller Association. After all, they set the questions for the 'Registered Fortune Teller' professional examination."

She thought about it carefully:

"It seems that I have really underestimated others before. That's right. How could the helpers around the man I like be ordinary?"

The blonde head maid did not point out that this statement was actually her own boast.

"It seems that I need to be well prepared. When the female fortune teller comes to Yuewan, I will be sure to restrain her as soon as possible. There is basically no possibility that she is higher than me, and her appearance will naturally not be the same. I'm so beautiful."

This is not narcissism, witches do have the ability to show off their looks.

"Miss, would you like to try some divination?"

Miss Matilda asked again, but the witch hesitated. Since Shade came to Moon Bay, she has slightly changed her habit of divination for everything. After all, most of the time the divination results are no longer reliable:

"The diviner himself has powerful anti-divination characteristics. But it's okay to give it a try. I want to see the other party's methods in advance."

So the maid took the fortune-telling cards, and at the moment when the witch drew the cards, Luvia, who was helping a visiting lady divine her love fortune in the Silver Cross Avenue Seer Association in Tobesk City, suddenly... Stunned.
