Chapter 2967 The Grandfather Paradox and Anthony’s Story

[Are you so proactive this time? 】

After hearing what Shade said, Miss Olanode, who was being watched by him, turned red. However, the witches in the fifth era were much bolder than those in the sixth era:

"Not only Huang Yue, but you also want Violet, right?"

After saying that he also laughed, Xia De also smiled. The two looked at each other for a moment, and then Xia De said:

"Long time no see, Miss Olanode."

"Long time no see, Shade. When you look at the yellow moon of this era, have you ever thought of me?"

Sivi and Carina, who were holding wine glasses, stood together and looked at the two people in the distance. The witch with beautiful long wavy hair touched the duchess with her elbow:

"This should be considered a public place, right? I think the two of them are going to be close to each other."

"Do you have any objections?"

"What objection can I have? But it always feels like someone came to our territory and kissed and bit the lamb we hunted."

"Only a lioness could describe it that way."

Carina said, of course she didn't care about this. After all, kissing and biting the little lamb was nothing. She had already swallowed the little lamb alive. Now that you've got your prey, just smelling it is no fun.

Shade actually has something to do tonight. Miss Daniste has brought enough Sands of Time, so he can go to the "Time Transfer Station" again.

However, the arrival of Miss Oranold and the return of Emilia made him want to postpone the matter for another night, but the gentle ancient moon witch insisted that Shade do the business:

"If you'd stayed, I'd probably have been standing here talking to you all night."

"Isn't that great?"

Her smile became softer and softer:

"Of course that's fine, but give me some time to talk to other people. For example, Miss Elisa and I haven't seen each other for a long time."

Obviously the ship girl should have lived at the end of the fifth era, in the same era as Miss Violet and Theresa, but everyone seems to know her:

"And the teacher and Miss Denister Gustave, whom Fiona and I mentioned, and whom Emilia also introduced to us. Was she your teacher in this era? She was also in the library Are you the administrator? I saw her just now. The red moon is indeed charming, and she is too young.

Speaking of which, fate and time also favor her, right? Time curses have not never appeared in the fifth era, but throughout history, I have never heard of anyone being able to remain eighteen years old forever because of time curses. Even the Witch Emperor cannot bear this temptation. "

More than one person has said similar words, of course, the first one is Miss Owl.

Shade then looked back at the red-haired girl, who was talking seriously to Granny Chisara next to Emilia. It has been so long since she turned eighteen. If she still had some temperament that was incompatible with her age at first, then Denister Gustave now looks eighteen years old in every aspect.

Noticing Shade's gaze, Miss Danister also looked up at him. But their eyes immediately separated after touching each other. Those rose-red eyes didn't want Shade looking into her soul at this time. She also wanted to talk to the ancient witch.

Therefore, Shade became the only person who could not participate in this grand banquet, and even little Mia would not go out with him.

In the end, Luvia, Flora and Miss Elise bid farewell to him on the deck together. Luvia asked Shade to have more contact with the masked man, so that she could use divination to learn his identity. , and Flora smiled and said:

"We'll remember to save you one last piece of dessert."

They waved to Shade together, and then saw Shade jumping onto the pier and disappearing into the woods with three steps at a time.

The snow that had lasted all day had stopped at some point, and the forest had already turned silvery white. The small silver wolf does not even leave too deep footprints when walking through the forest, but the silent night seems to be brewing more unknown dangers.

When Silver Wolf looked up at March in the night sky, he inevitably thought of the gray wolf who really chased the moon at night. Outsiders have met many people who worship the moon in this world, but only the gray wolf witch is the most special.

Although she worships the moon, she will not be bound by faith. The purest and simplest faith is the most pious faith in Shade's opinion.

Nothing happened along the way. When Shade entered the city, the city was very peaceful.

Thanks to the small size of Vista, the snow on the city's main roads has been basically cleared. However, after the melted snow water froze overnight, Shade believed that people traveling tomorrow morning must be very careful.

He used the black invitation in the alley of the old city. This time when the invitation was posted on the wall, he paid attention and felt it carefully. When he saw the invitation melting on the wall and forming a dark door, he, who had mastered the "Tree Hole Curse", was almost certain that the hole in front of him was also opened by the Tree Hole Curse.

In other words, the essence of the time transfer station located in "frozen time" is actually the "stagnant" time and space in the tree hole.

"But the space opened by the Tree Hole Curse has no function of connecting different points in time."

After passing through the black door, Shad entered the dim "Accordion Hotel" again. He thought that this gathering was only opened because of the deal between him and the "Masked Man". Unexpectedly, after entering, he found that in addition to Bennett behind the counter, there was another person sitting at the table. Of course, this was not Anthony Winslet, who Shad was nominally looking for.

Shad should be the last one to arrive, because the black door behind him closed automatically after he entered. After he sat down, the masked man holding a kerosene lamp first walked towards the woman sitting at the table:

"Are you sure you want to go back in time and kill your grandfather who is still a child?"

"Yes, I'm ready."

Then came the familiar signing of the contract. During this period, the woman didn't care about Shad at all. After signing the contract, she went straight up the stairs without looking back. Shad noticed that she was also a ring magician, but her level was not high.

"Killing the young grandfather through time travel means that the mother will not be born, and thus she will not be born. But if she is not born, no one will kill the grandfather. This is an unimaginable paradox. Can she really succeed?"

Shad waited until the woman disappeared completely before asking. The kerosene lamp was then placed on the table in front of him, and the masked man sat down:

"Of course it can't succeed. I even bet that it was because of her behavior that her grandfather and grandmother met, and thus her mother was born."

"Have you told her about this?"

"Of course, I gave her a complete warning, but sometimes people's obsessions can affect the clarity of our minds."

"Then what will be her ending? Because of the mockery of fate, she died in the accident of her own plan? Or because of the punishment of time, she completely disappeared in time?"

Shad asked again, but the masked man did not answer this time:

"Did you bring the sand of time?"

"Of course."

Shad put the suitcase on the table. After opening it, there were ten neatly arranged hourglasses inside, each of which contained a standard unit of silver sand. The most basic use of [Sand of Time] is to affect the flow of time after throwing it out. This effect also applies to the user himself, so its use value is not high and is mostly used by people for research.

The masked man checked it briefly and confirmed that the purity and quantity of the sand of time were sufficient, then he closed the lid of the box and wanted to take the box away, but Shade pressed on the box, staring at the faceless mask:

"I brought what you wanted, so what about Anthony Winslet?"

"Do you want to see him now?"

"Of course not now, I don't know the specific background yet. Now, you have to at least tell me his story."

"Okay."

The masked man let go of the handle of the box:

"Last time I mentioned that Winslet first appeared here in the spring of 1844, and it was only two months later that he decided to leave the 'now'. His story is not special. It is not about saving love, escaping reality, longing for adventure, or seeking wealth. He wants to save people."

"Like the man just now, do you also want to change history?"

"No, he just wants to find his childhood playmate. The two people who strayed into the forest ended up with only one person coming back alive, and the other disappeared. Originally, he He no longer cared about it, but after coming to this city in 1844, he unexpectedly found traces of his childhood playmate who had disappeared. "

"He wants to find the missing child?"

"He wants to kidnap the missing child. As long as he goes back to that night and takes the child away at the right time, history will not change. The missing person is still missing, but he can take care of the child until he grows up and makes him appear again in 1844."

The masked man asked Xia De:

"Can you understand what I said?"

Xia De raised his eyebrows:

"Of course I understand, because it has not been observed, so even if it has happened in the past, there is still a possibility. He does not want to change history, but to create... No, to complete history?"

This is a bit like what Xia De did in the Fifth Era, but what he did was allowed by the Tree Father, and he himself would be regarded as a person of that time and space when he entered that time and space, so no matter what he did, it would not cause a paradox.

"It's a bit too arrogant to say that he is completing history. History is the story of time, and no one can actively choose history. Although his approach can be regarded as a perfect cycle of time, it will definitely cause other problems. He went to this time point in the winter of 1819. Dear guest, do you want to set off now?"
