Whispering Verse

Chapter 3160 Academy Bounty Order

The home was illuminated by warm gas lamps at night. The light of the home reflected on the glass was like a castle wall, which blocked the cold and gloom of the night outside the window for Shade.

The blonde witch, who had just finished taking a shower in the bathroom and was walking back to the living room in her pajamas with her hair wrapped in coins, looked up and saw her youngest black-haired colleague moving the living room furniture to the wall and placing it there.

Dance music was already playing in the house due to the effects of magic, and lit incense was placed on the windowsill to create a romantic atmosphere.

Sylvia, who seems to be more youthful and energetic recently, smiled and said:

"Good evening, Vanessa. Do you want to dance together later? Turn off all the lights and dance to the music among the candles on the floor. This is the most romantic imagination of most girls in their teenage years! Oh, and you can also ask Shad to release some glowing butterflies. He is the best at this."

The angry opera singer then pointed out:

"I was the first one to come here today. You have the power of space, and you can go from Willendel to Vista Forest at any time, and then come here from the tree hole in the forest, but I will soon go back to Randall Valley with Sirius and the others."

She pointed to the bathrobe she was wearing:

“Look at me dressed like this, do I look like I want to dance? Sylvia, you’re a latecomer. Whether it’s today or our relationship with Shade, you’re a latecomer!”

Sylvia smiled and did not deny it. Anyway, she was in a very good mood because Vanessa was right. Although it took her half an hour to come here, it was better than not being able to come at all.

"Then I'll try a different date method...Shad and Mia are going to St. Byron's. When he comes back, we'll turn off the lights, and I'll invite him to dance in the dark. Then you take the opportunity to hug him from behind, this way and then that way, and we'll see how long he can hold on before letting go of my hand."

Vanessa thought about it:

"Good idea!"

The Golden Dawn Opera Company officially set off for home on the second Monday of the Sleeping Month. As a highly respected art group, even though the relationship between the North and the South is now at a critical juncture, there are still many people in Tobysk who come to see them off.

The Cavendish royal family paid for all the first-class tickets for the opera troupe's return home. The train will go directly from Tobesk to the Randall Valley without the need to change trains.

Vanessa was very reluctant to leave and avoided the crowd on the platform to say goodbye to everyone. After watching Shad hug Hillis, she hugged him again with red eyes and said:

"Don't forget to visit us in the Randall Valley at the end of the year."

As Dorothy, Carina, and Luvia looked on, she raised her head again toward the falling snow between the platform and the platform roof and shouted:

"Please don't make it snow so often. We're not performing an opera right now."

Yes, on the morning when the Golden Dawn Opera Troupe set out from Tobisk, the Steam Capital finally welcomed the 1854

The first snow of winter.

This snow had been long awaited by the people in the northern capital. Even Xia De was happy to see the falling snow outside his window before the end of the year.

However, just as Luvia predicted last month, once this snow starts falling, it will be difficult to stop.

The snow on Monday made people happy. Shade took his cat to the second-floor window and watched the children from the neighborhood running around and playing snowball fights in the square. That night, there was even an ugly but cute little snowman in front of the fountain in the square.

When Iluna came early in the morning on Tuesday in the snow, she brushed the snow off her shoulders and hat downstairs, cleaned the snow off the soles of her boots on the foot mat, and happily announced the news that the drought this winter had been alleviated from the newspaper that she helped bring up from downstairs;

The woman who came to look for her lost pet cat on Wednesday stepped into a snow pit at the entrance of number 6 St. Teresa's Square as soon as she got off the carriage;

On Thursday morning, the milkman and postman, who had their faces covered with coins and only their eyes exposed, were half an hour late than usual:

"Good morning, Mr. Hamilton! I'm sorry I can't chat with you here, for God's sake.

Please stop this snow soon."

On Friday, Luvia showed up at Saint Teresa's Square at around ten in the morning. It wasn't because she had asked for leave.

Rather, the heavy snow caused the Prophet Association to close down, and there were no pedestrians on the streets.

Before everyone gathered in the doctor's clinic's reception room on Saturday, the doctor had to direct the servants to clean the clinic's front door, which was almost blocked by the snow, and loudly ask the baroness living next door if she needed his help in clearing the snow.

"I can't remember the last time it snowed so heavily in Tobisk in winter. Although the city hall has sent people to clear the main road, there are almost no carriages on the road. I thought I was going to be late."

As they entered the room, Father Augustus cleaned his boots on the doormat and said this, and then the two women rushed in from the snow together.

Xia De and Mia were the last to arrive. The cat looked very excited when Xia De held it in his arms, but Xia De was a little unhappy:

"I thought it might be hard to find a carriage today, and Mia was excited about the snow, so she set out an hour and a half early, and turned into a cat to run with it."

"Did you two have so much fun playing in the snow on the way that you wasted time?"

Dorothy asked, covering her mouth with her hands and laughing. Shad shook his head:

"No, we didn't. We just met a group of kids throwing stones at us, so Mia chased them. For some reason, the kids seemed to be very scared of Mia, and one of them ran to the river bank in panic.

I accidentally fell into the ice water.

I was forced to jump into the river to rescue the child. I hope he learns his lesson and doesn’t bully stray cats even if he doesn’t like them.”

"Detective, do you need to find a place to change your clothes first?"

The doctor also asked with a smile, as if he thought Shad's experience was very interesting. Shad nodded. Although he had dried his clothes, it would obviously be better to change into clean clothes.

This blizzard affected everyone's lives. Even Dorothy, who seldom went out, complained that her plans to go out for interviews and material collection were delayed.

Many of the doctor's patients canceled their visits and instead requested that the doctor come to their homes in person. Dr. Schneider, who has a strong sense of professional ethics, would not give up on his patients, so he was forced to go out every day during this week of blizzards.

The priest was in better condition, but he was concerned about the impact of the bad weather on the poor people in the downtown area.

However, after everyone sat down, the doctor did not emphasize the end-of-year exam week again, but announced a good news to everyone:

"Remember the group mission I mentioned last month? I've found a suitable target. It seems that everyone doesn't have anything important to do recently except reviewing for the exam. So as long as you have no objection to this mission, I will notify the academy to take it on."

"Doctor, what is the mission? If it is a mission to escort and transport special items, there will be extra charges for such bad weather."

Luvia joked while holding a cup of tea, and the doctor passed the parchment with the mission notice to everyone:

"I've learned my lesson. The last relic escort mission was too dangerous, and there is no relic transport work suitable for us recently. There is no need to do anything dangerous near the end of the year. This mission is to help the professor of the School of Astronomy complete an experiment.

Although there are relics involved, I don’t think the danger is great.”

"Doctor, you can't say that before you accept a mission."

Shade said, taking the parchment handed over by Dorothy, which read: [College Bounty Order: The Astronomy College needs experimenters and experimental assistants for the derivative test of the Angel-level Relic - "Fate Weaver Card". Now the reward is issued to the correspondence group of the college that meets the qualifications. After the correspondence group leader applies, he can learn the specific details of the experiment.

The group applying for information on the mission must meet all of the following conditions:

Established for at least ten years; fully staffed; has at least two Central Circle technicians; all members have less than five failed subjects; has one astronomy student.

If the conditions are met and the task is accepted, the team only needs to complete the experiment. Regardless of the experimental results, the team will receive:

40 practical credits this academic year, with specific allocation to be submitted by the team leader; two optional Keeper-level relics, with a list of rewards displayed together with the experimental details; the year-end assessment rating of students from the School of Astronomy who participate in the experiment will automatically increase by one level; 3,000 gold pounds in cash, which can be converted into crowns.

Note 1: This task is highly uncertain. It is not recommended for groups with level 2 or lower levels to participate.

Note 2: This experiment is led by the School of Astronomy, and the details of the experiment may change before and during the mission;

Note 3: The Orthodox Church has not received this information. If you intend to complete the mission, please be careful not to reveal your identity to the church. 】

After reading it, he handed the parchment to Father Augustus and said to Luvia:

"This year, when we completed the escort of the angel-level relic [The Remains of the Nameless One], the academy rewarded all of us with a small increase in our year-end evaluation (Chapter 1665). If we participate in the experiment this time, your evaluation will be increased by one level, and the minimum evaluation at the end of the year should be 'Excellent/Lower'."

Luvia was the only astronomy student among the group, but she was not very optimistic. She said to Dr. Schneider:

"Doctor, this is an experiment involving an angel-level relic. Although the pay is good, there are too many uncertainties. It doesn't seem completely safe at all."

"Doctor, our team meets the requirements. Have you applied to view the experimental information?"

Dorothy asked him the same question, and the Doctor nodded:

“The message was just sent to me this morning.

The angel-level relic [Fate Weaver Card] is a fate-related relic that St. Byrons Comprehensive College accidentally acquired more than ten years ago. The last time this relic appeared was in the Fourth Era, and there is only a very small amount of relevant containment data in the college's records. "
