Whispering Verse

Shade stayed with the doctor until half past two this afternoon and then left. Considering that Luvia and Priest August both took long leave for more than half a month, there is a high possibility that they will not be there next week. , the doctor also sighed:

"That's great. You can take any leave you want."

"You can actually take time off at any time, after all, you work for yourself."

"Just because I work for myself, I can't relax even more."

On the way home, Shade certainly did not forget to go to the Bettys Coffee and Tea Room in the north of the city and buy Dorothy the fresh cream scones she mentioned.

This dessert was indeed very popular. As soon as Shade asked for it, he asked for 30 portions. The store simply didn't have that much stock. But the coffee and tea room would not refuse a customer like Sha De, so they asked Sha De to wait for half an hour, or they would send a clerk to Sha De's home later.

"Just wait here, half an hour will be quick."

He ordered a cup of coffee and sat down at the table. Not long after, the young waitress also brought a snack, saying that it was given to Shade by the shop owner.

"Meow!"

Little Mia suddenly woke up from her dream and looked at the delicious food on the table without blinking.

Dorothy kept 10 of the 30 scones brought back by Shade and asked Shade to take the rest to Moon Bay for Agelina and the ladies there to try. Of course, she couldn't finish the 10 yuan herself, so she invited the maids at home to take a break and have afternoon tea with her.

Neither Lecia nor Miss Carina would do such a thing, but the writer, who was born as a commoner, didn't care about that.

Shade also accompanied Dorothy to drink afternoon tea and taste delicious snacks, and then headed to Moon Bay with little Mia.

Because of the means of preservation, when Shade brought the snacks to Belindel Manor, the snacks were still hot.

Instead of giving the snacks to everyone himself, he gave the snacks to Agelina first and asked Agelina to pass them out. As for the girls who haven't come back yet, save the snacks and eat them when they come back in the evening.

Agelina happily went to share some snacks. When she came back to find Shade, Shade was talking to Emilia about [Ocarina of Time] on the second floor terrace.

This relic was secretly transported to Moon Bay today through a method unknown to Emilia. But because the person who sent the relic did not understand the situation in the Moon Bay area and could not easily carry the item into the city, Emilia asked Shade if he could go with her to pick up the item outside the city.

"No problem at all."

Today is Saturday, and it’s time for night classes again. But Dorothy also said that if Shade had something urgent to do in Moon Bay, he could go back later.

Agelina pursed her lips, but did not say that she wanted to go too:

"Xia De, the witches said in the morning that the church will come to check here tomorrow. Let's clean up the house today. If you come, you can do whatever you want. You can have dinner here today, but don't come here again before dinner tomorrow."

"Emilia and little Lianna are going to Margaret Manor. Agelina, where are you going? Lesia said that you can decide on your own in Moon Bay."

Shade asked her again, and the little princess said:

"I will also go to Margaret Manor with Emilia and the others."

"With Agelina by my side, little Lianna and I are not alone."

The elf girl also said with a smile, and then invited the little princess to taste the snacks together.

The maids are working nervously but orderly to cover up the manor. Miss Aurora, Megan, Luvia and Miss Elisa went to investigate outside the city, but the busy Miss Belindel was in the manor.

So for the remaining hour of the afternoon, Shade stayed by the countess' side and talked to her. As for dinner that day, we ate very early, and after dinner, everyone left with their luggage and came back tomorrow night.

Luvia did not go to Margaret Manor, but went to live on the boat at the dock with Megan, Miss Aurora, Miss Swift and Tifa.

This does not refer to the small cruise ship that "Two-tailed Cat" took Shade on, but Miss Elisa's own "Brilliant Messenger". The ship is now registered under the name of Countess Bella Belindel and has sailed into Yuewan Port at noon today, parked next to the Aurora family fleet and Megan's small cruise ship.

Of course, because the ship was so big, Miss Elisa made it smaller before sailing into the harbor. The reason why the little unicorn didn't want to live there was obviously because it was a little afraid of Miss Elise.

However, Shade did not follow the witches to the dock immediately after dinner. Instead, he asked Luvia to take little Mia first. He said goodbye and drove the little unicorn and Agelina to Margaret. carriage, and then set off with Emilia to the outside of the city.

The pick-up location was arranged in the mountainous area east of the city. Although Xia De had been active in the northern area of ​​Yuewan, he rarely came here.

Because the location was too far from the city, Shade and Amelia each rode a horse to the agreed-upon big banyan tree at an unnamed crossroads in the countryside. After confirming that the location was OK, the two tied their horses to the tree and waited while talking.

It was already 7:30 on Saturday night, the three-wheeled moon hung high in the sky, and no other people could be seen on the path outside the city. Under the trees at the open intersection, the moonlight can slightly illuminate the surroundings. But standing here and looking around, all you can see is seemingly endless fields extending towards villages with sporadic lights in the distance.

“Amelia, are you happy during your time in Moon Bay?

Shade asked worriedly. Emilia originally came to Moon Bay because of the demon, but it was his idea to let her stay after the demon was solved.

"Very happy."

The girl with pointed ears nodded immediately and moved her gaze from the wilderness under the moonlit night to Shade's face:

"Shad, you don't have to worry about me. Everyone in the manor takes good care of me, and I have little Lianna and Agelina by my side. These days are really, really good. I even don't want to do this. Speaking of the end of vacation, it’s already August and half of the summer vacation is over.”

The pointed ears drooped downward a little, and after speaking, he raised his head and looked at the moon:

"Although I feel a little sad that little Liana can't run freely on the grassland and play in the river, but other than that, I really hope that this time can be longer. Speaking of which, little Liana has changed recently. She has gained a lot of weight, I will make her lose weight after she returns."

She laughed as she spoke, and Shade also smiled:

"I think little Lianna's weight gain is not due to lack of exercise. I often see it walking in the manor. It must be eating a little too much, right? Our 'landlord' obviously doesn't understand the unicorn diet. I see her Baskets upon baskets of fresh fruit were prepared for little Liana. Even though it is summer and fruits are easy to purchase, she was a bit exaggerated."

"I know I know!

Emilia continued to smile and said:

"I have read a book at home before, which said that powerful witches in the past era all had unicorn mounts. And little Liana is really beautiful, and everyone in the academy also likes her very much."

She told Shad some interesting anecdotes about the academy, and how she was too timid to come out from behind the tree when she first saw little Lianna.

After saying this, he embarrassedly said to Shade:

"Are you bored listening to me talking about this all the time?"

"Of course it's not boring. Life at St. Byron's is interesting. You know I didn't go to school, so I don't know what it's like."

The stranger told a lie. Of course, the lie was only the last sentence.

The girl with pointed ears pursed her lips and nodded:

"Yes, life in the college is very interesting and peaceful. Although I sneaked out to play in Randall Valley many times before, it was peaceful at that time. I saw too many things in Tobesk and Moon Bay this summer. That’s what happened, the world turned out to be like this.”

Xia De originally wanted to say, "Only Yuewan is in such chaos right now," but thinking of what would happen in the future, he never said this.

"I have never seen a war, but the newspapers last weekend said that many people died. Together with you, I have seen the devil that even books dare not describe in detail, and I also know how terrible that kind of malice is. horrible."

She put her hands behind her back:

"Shade, I used to feel like I was a very strong person."

"You are indeed very strong. You see, you suddenly experienced so much this summer. Even after encountering the devil, you did not suffer from insomnia and slept soundly all the time. This is not something ordinary people can do."

The girl with pointed ears was embarrassed to say that she was too excited and couldn't sleep in the first half of the night and couldn't wake up in the second half of the night, so she asked Xiang Shade:

"We saw the ancient dragon-slaying hero who left a statue at the ancient elven ruins outside the city. Shade, do you think I can become that kind of hero?"

It can be seen that she is a little confused and lonely. She has not even said this to Agelina. Although Agelina was a friend, she only wanted to say this to Shade, especially after Agelina's "war and love are unreasonable" teaching last night.

"Hero? It's impossible for everyone to become a hero, because we don't have so many dragons and demons to prepare for heroes."

"Shad, I'm not kidding."

The elf girl complained softly, while Shade looked at her seriously:

"I'm not kidding. It's true that you have a desire for justice, but sometimes if it's not your turn, you shouldn't rush out. I don't like to use the term 'heroic', but being a hero is more than just personal. Hard work also depends on luck and the progress of the times.”

He looked at those emerald green eyes seriously:

"Promise me, Emilia, you can prepare yourself to be a hero, but don't force yourself to be a hero, okay?"
