Whispering Verse

"cat?"

Emilia was shocked. She had only encountered one cat that could be described like this in her short life of more than fifty years:

"How come you are? He has a cat."

The old elf nodded, with no expression on his face that could be read by Emilia:

"This leaf recording knowledge will be delivered to you through the poem manuscript pages in a while. Give it to the people who need it. Also, you can do what you should do in Yuewan with peace of mind. If you need help, just write Just get the letter back."

"I understand, but mama, what is your question just now?"

Emilia hesitated to speak, but the old elf shook his head and reminded softly:

"Don't tell anyone about our conversation tonight, not even that person. Little Emilia, do you still remember what the leaves told us?"

The pointed-eared elf girl nodded quickly, which was somewhat similar to the clan motto:

"The wind brings stories from the past, and the leaves write the lines of history."

"The way we record history is different from any other race. Now that the tree father has long gone, the power of the God of Time is still protecting us.

So, Luo Ye brought news——

[On the other side of the fog, our hometown, our world, the order has reached the edge of fragmentation,]

[The ancient gods disappeared. In the glory of the first era, the god of time who supported the world first fell into sleep. 】

[Then, the eldest son of God, the believer of God, the lucky one——]

[The demigods obtained fragments of the power of the ancient gods and became the gods of the past. 】

[Some of them went astray and fell into madness because of that power... In the fifth era that has ended, the other part followed the path of the ancient gods. 】

[Oh, so, Emilia──the noble child who is still ignorant. The power that has been dormant in our blood for a long time is calling out. 】

['Balanced Gold' Iluna Beas, 'The Blackest Humanity' Ivan Darkness, 'Deathfire Sister' Devlin, 'Omniscient Crazy' Lykins Prisha, 'Earth Puppet' 'Guardian Cluster Soul, 'Broken Butterfly' an unknown girl.】

[The lost blessing of the ancient gods has once again returned to the nameless mortals. 】

[Emilia, if you are willing,]

[Go towards the other side of the fog, arrive at the place of destiny, meet the ancient gods, and become the chosen one. ]"

The old voice spoke calmly, a long poem like a prophecy. The sound without fluctuations sounded in the forest at night, making Emilia's white and tender skin swell with small particles of fear. She felt the flow of time and destiny, which were far greater and unchangeable things than her little elf.

Taking a deep breath, Emilia blinked, and then had to admit that except for the last sentence, she didn't understand what the old elf said.

"Mommy, do you want me to be the chosen one?"

Emilia said with some uneasiness that she had heard Shade talk about "The Whispering Psalm" and the Chosen One, but she never thought that she would become that person.

After all, she had had enough of encountering relics one after another recently. If this was the case for many years to come, Amelia felt that she might go crazy. She did not challenge her hobbies one after another.

The old elf shook his head kindly:

"This is just a story told to me by the leaves. It can be told to anyone.

Emilia, I just hope you know what the stories of the Whispering Psalms and the Chosen Ones mean to this world. Of course, if you really have such a wish, you can take away the sword in the tree behind me. "

"Mommy, I know roughly what it means to be the chosen one from others. I don't plan to become the chosen one yet, so [Ocarina of Time] will stay here so that the children can take turns playing the role of the brave when they play. Bar."

After saying these words, the pointed-eared elf girl felt that she had grown up inexplicably.

So the old elf sighed heavily:

"Okay, but no matter what you do next, the clan will support you. If you are really determined to follow the man holding two big swords, you must also be mentally prepared. The road cannot be smooth sailing.”

Emilia blushed inexplicably:

"I got it, Mommy."

"That's all for today. I'll talk to you about other things when you come back from Moon Bay. Stay safe out there, everyone is worried about you."

Emilia knew this meant the end of the conversation, and although she was still confused about the conversation, at least it wasn't a bad thing:

"Okay, mama, I will bring you a souvenir from Yuewan when I come back. Can I ask you another thing?"

She suddenly asked again, and only raised the question after getting permission:

"Does the word 'Yuktrassil' mean World Tree?"

The old elf nodded:

"Although your pronunciation is strange, I can give you a definite answer."

"Oh, I understand. Goodbye, Nanny. I will write to you on time."

She waved gently.

"Goodbye, little Emilia. Also, remember to remind him that in the Sixth Age, large-scale manipulation of time to change reality is no longer possible for mortals."

"I remembered."

Emilia nodded slightly, stood up, left and disappeared, while the old elf who was still sitting there slowly stood up after a long time. She looked up at the big tree standing in the night, lowered her head and prayed silently.

(Little Mia is running.)

Dorothy, who returned home with Shade from the Dragon's Nest outside Moon Bay City, did not leave No. 6 St. Teresa Square that night. But when the two were about to rest, Shade mentioned another thing:

"That's right, I plan to quit sex before the exam ends this weekend."

The blonde girl who was in front of the wardrobe about to choose pajamas turned her head in confusion:

"What? Quit sex?"

She looked down at herself:

"Shadow, am I no longer attracted to you?"

"of course not."

"That's because. No, no need to answer, you must have had strange thoughts again. But it doesn't matter, Lecia gave me an idea, I believe you will change your mind."

She continued to choose pajamas, and then went to the dressing room of the master bedroom to change clothes. After walking out, he picked up a pen from the desk and walked to Sha De. His green eyes winked at Sha De playfully:

"Yeah! The pen fell."

So the pen slipped from her hand with a clang, and the writer glanced at Shade again, turned her back to him, and then slowly bent down to pick up the pen. This action also caused her breasts to directly face Shade.

Shade took a deep breath and looked at the cat lying on the bed. So, little Mia slept in the closet all night again.

Dorothy was not surprised at all that she had succeeded in seducing Shade. Early on Tuesday morning, she did not mention it again when she was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Instead, she curiously asked about it and played with the food that the doctor had just sent in the dining room. That black crow-feathered Shad:

"Little Mia is so good, she won't cause trouble even if she's not locked in the closet. Why do you have to lock her up every time we stay at your house?"

The black feathers are what the doctor said last Sunday night were the props used to find the "crow's nest." As for Dorothy's question, Shade poked the cat who was looking forward to breakfast with a feather, and the latter pushed the feather away with his paw.

"It is indeed very well-behaved, but don't you feel that it would be very shameful if little Mia stared at it when we were together?"

"Shade, you are the only one who feels this way."

The girl in an apron brought the steaming scrambled eggs to the table, then took off her apron and sat next to Shade.

Cow's milk, bread jam, scrambled eggs and bacon, the breakfast at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square is very rich.

"Lecia asked me to tell you that the reason why you feel ashamed when being looked at by a cat is because you regard little Mia as a family member who is close to a human being, not a pet."

Miss Writer said. Shade had just picked up the bread and was about to eat it. After hearing this, he thought about it carefully and tilted his head to look at the orange-white cat licking the goat's milk:

"Well, why don't you stay here tonight? I won't lock up little Mia this time. By this time tomorrow, you can talk about your feelings."

Dorothy smiled and kissed the side of his face:

"There are so many tricks. You don't plan to be an ascetic monk, do you? Shade, are you inviting me? No, no, I still remember the lesson from last time. When the exam week is coming, I can't indulge in your gentleness. , I can’t fail this exam again.

It's Tuesday and I've been studying hard all week, and so has Lesia, so we won't be here for you except Saturday night. "

"That's it."

Shade nodded again, looked at little Mia who was concentrating on eating breakfast again, and decided that whether Carina or Luvia came to stay this week, he would put the cat on the bedside, and then ask them what they thought after that. .

Dorothy's luggage was brought back by Shade after she turned it into a toy in Moon Bay. After breakfast, Shade went out and called a taxi. He very gentlemanly drove Dorothy back to Quill Street. , and then set off from home again to Yuewan.

When she arrived at Belindel Manor, the countess had already gone to the city council. Today, the council had a draft budget for tsunami prevention in Yuewan City that needed to be passed.

Emilia and Agelina were in the manor, but they seemed to be discussing novels in the elf girl's bedroom. Although Agelina is now a student at the Zarath School of Literature, she does not have to take the summer exams.

Although she, like Shade last year, joined the academy shortly before the exam week, it was obvious that Agelina did not have the same exam skills as Shade, so she did not register for this exam at all.
