Chapter 2958 Shade and the Elf in the Snow

The two of them didn't go far in the snow. Emilia found a big enough tree in the forest. She first used the tree hole spell to open a tree hole, and then asked Shade:

"Do you have any food on you? Anything."

Shade then took out a handful of cat food, and little Mia immediately put her head down from Shade's shoulder, while Emilia said helplessly:

"I mean food you can eat. Forget it, no food, flowers or leaves will do too."

Shade then took out the roses that had not been delivered. The elf took a petal and asked Shade to drop blood on it. Then he also dropped his own blood on the petals, and finally placed it in the tree hole:

"If you don't have someone who has mastered the [Tree Hole Curse] to help you, this ceremony actually requires specific horoscopes to be performed, but it will be very troublesome."

Snowflakes fell on the pointed ears, but she shook them off with a gentle shake. Then she stuffed a few stones picked up from the ground and a dead branch into the tree hole, and then cast a spell to seal the tree hole:

"Just wait about five minutes."

Seeing that Shade was still holding the red rose with one petal removed, she looked at Shade with a slightly red face. If a foreigner doesn't even understand what this means, he has wasted the "teaching" of Carina and others this year:

"This is for you."

He handed over a new red rose, and the elf girl took it with a slightly blushing face. She lowered her head and watched the petals turning due to her twisting. The white fur collar of the robe covered her neck and chin, and her feet were wearing The short boots are a common brown style:

"What do you mean by giving me roses?"

She still didn't raise her head when she asked.

"I think now is the time to give this flower away."

"That's a cunning answer, Shade."

Only then did she raise her head and gently twist the red rose with her fingers. Her emerald green eyes looked at Shade for a moment. Looking at the smile of the man in the snow, she bit her lip gently, and then said in a very soft voice:

"Now I am an adult elf."

The voice was so light that it was almost drowned out by the sound of falling snow, Mia's whimpers eating cat food, and her own heartbeat.

Then the elf girl's face got closer and closer to Shade. Little Liana hid behind her and poked her head out. Little Mia, who had finished eating the handful of cat food, did not disturb the moment.

The blond elf in the snow scene then gave him a kiss. The elf's kiss was gentle and sweet. Shade thought that because of this kiss, he would stay in a good mood all day long.

[It would be very interesting if the elf appeared at this time with the witch from the fifth era. 】

"She" said this only after the kiss ended, so it did not destroy the aesthetic feeling just now. It's just that the elf's face was already red as if it was going to explode. This was a very bold move for her.

After successfully learning the "Tree Hole Curse" in the snow, Shade also wanted to invite the elf girl to go to the "Time Transfer Station" with him tonight, but she did not agree:

"I can't sense what you can't sense."

"But you are a candidate for the Time Chosen One, and I want you to see if he is a candidate in the Time Way Station."

"Don't you already have an answer to this question?"

She gave Shade a definite answer:

"I won't go. But there is something you need to pay attention to. I currently have a total of five arrows in my hand, but this should not be enough."

"How many more do you need? I'm sure Bennet has one at home."

"It would be safest to have thirteen, but it seems almost impossible now. Find as many as possible. After all, the story here is coming to an end. If you want the ending to be grander, then It is necessary to find more arrows.”

"So do you know what this chosen ceremony is about?"

The elf's emerald green eyes looked at Shade, and the two of them walked in the snow. The snow that started in the morning had dyed the forest floor white, but it still failed to dye their hair white:

"Count the time. At this point in time, hasn't Luvia already told you that the ritual of time is to plant a tree?"

"But I don't know the specific details yet."

He said to her very bluntly:

"I don't want you to turn into a tree."

The elf blinked, but seemed not to have heard it, and ignored this sentence at all:

"The winner of the Time War will gain the power of the other candidates. So the mark on the back of the hand becomes the most complete tree pattern, and this power will become a new seed, matching the leaves and branches of the World Tree and roots, new trees can be planted.

This requires the most primitive World Tree materials, such as your staff or the arrows I collected, which do not meet the requirements. "

This is the ceremony of the chosen one. For Shade, who has reached the end of the story, this is no longer complicated:

"I still have two leaves of [Eternal Youth] here, and I also have two branches of the World Tree here. So, all that's missing now is the roots, right?"

"In fact, you don't have to look for the roots. The ancient one in the forest must have them."

"Is that all? Does that sound too simple?"

"Easy?"

The emerald green eyes looked forward again. Little Liana was happily leading the way. Anyone who saw the scene of the pure white beast jumping in the snowy scene would smile:

"There are indeed some other conditions. After all, even if the seeds are successfully planted, they still need to find a way to make them germinate.

"Emilia, I don't want you to become a tree. I emphasize again: I don't want you to become a tree."

She didn't look at Shade, but she didn't deny that she was not Emilia as usual.

Shade still looked at her, and the two continued to move forward in the snow in silence. The elf girl skipped the previous topic and continued to talk to herself:

"The tree of time needs the power of time to be watered before it can sprout. This is actually very simple. As long as the candidate for the ceremony travels through time many times and carries enough time power, it will be fine.

The last is the place where the seeds are planted, which is also the place where the ceremony is held. This is certainly not a normal land. We need to find a special chaotic time point. For example, the Ash River Valley meets the requirements, but it doesn't need to be so exaggerated. This is also a small matter. Isn't the most lacking thing in this forest the chaotic time zone? "

The boots of the two people made a creaking sound on the soft snow, and a sparrow took off from a branch nearby, causing snowflakes to fall from the branches.

The cat looked at the sparrow that flew away, wondering if it remembered the group of pigeons on Saint Teresa's Square. Shade grabbed Emilia's hand directly:

"I don't want to lose you."

This sentence is straightforward enough, and the elf girl finally looked at him again:

"I haven't seen the end of the story, so I can't give you an answer."

"But you can promise that you won't turn into a tree."

"But what if I really need to turn into a tree for the story here to be complete?"

"If you turn into a tree, it will be an incomplete story for me."

The tip of the golden-haired elf's pointed ears was a little red, but it might also be frozen in the snow:

"But I took responsibility, and I will do that thing."

"I can let others take responsibility. "

She shook her head and did not break away from Shade's hand:

"Then I hope you can make the right choice in the end. After all, at this moment when the story about time is about to turn to the last page, you have decided that you will still choose the ending of the story yourself, right?"

They walked farther and farther in the snow hand in hand, leaving only two rows of footprints side by side, waiting alone to disappear in the snow.

Although it was the first snow of this year, the scale of this snow was getting bigger and bigger. It could be said to be moderate snow in the morning, but when Shade returned to the boat after lunch, it had turned into heavy snow.

However, considering that the weather this year was abnormal, and there was even a blizzard in the summer, the witches were not surprised at all.

The elf and little Lianna were invited by Shade to have lunch on the boat, and the arrival of the little unicorn was very welcome by everyone. At lunch, Shade also suggested whether to hold a welcome party for Emilia in the evening, and Luvia pointed out that Shade wanted to welcome someone else.

"Luvia, don't expose him. "

Meghan said with a smile.

A new accident soon occurred in the heavy snow. Not long after lunch, Shade and Ajelina were talking about what would happen if Little Mia stood on Little Liana's head and the smaller Shade cat stood on Little Mia's back. When Little Liana suddenly stopped from running, Miss Bell hurried over from the portal and delivered the big news:

"The church asked us for help."

"Ask us for help?"

Shade was a little unbelievable:

"The church has so many people, not to mention the professors in the college, they won't ask us for help, right? What's the specific situation?"

"The church hurriedly sent a message to our contact in the local black market, saying that they need a witch to solve the problem. The lady thinks that the church may have encountered some ancient monster related to witches, so let me ask who on the ship can help? "

Flora was still in the cursed state after all, and her power was not at its peak, so she did not take the initiative to take on the job.

And Shad was not a witch, so he could not participate. There were not many big witches on the boat that afternoon. Although Grandma Cassandra was there, Flora could not let her go even if she wanted to; in addition, Sylvia, Vanessa and Megan, who had just arrived, were also there.

"I refuse to meet with anyone from the church."

The little witch said immediately, and after discussion, Megan came forward to assist the church. Not long after Megan left, news came from the forest again, this time it was Carina who sent the letter.
