Whispering Verse

[You have been exposed to ‘blasphemy’. 】

"What?"

I wanted to go around the grape trellis, but unexpectedly, a voice suddenly appeared in my head. The [blasphemy] element is mostly related to evil gods. Doctor Schneider said that once you come into contact with this element, the right thing to do is turn around and run away.

Shade also wanted to turn around and run away, but there was another person in front of him. The tearful poet didn't seem to notice Shade walking nearby.

"Is the Bard a Ringmancer?"

He continued to move forward, asking uneasily in his heart.

【no. 】

Shade breathed a sigh of relief, sighing in his heart that the "other me" was so useful, and at the same time, his steps became easier. He didn't look around, but walked straight under the grape trellis.

When he was completely away from this area, he relaxed and stopped holding the flower bed. Just now, he was really worried that a pair of hands would suddenly drag him into the darkness.

"Is there something hidden under the grape trellis? Oh, it seems we can't run around anymore, otherwise something will really happen now."

Tonight's weird luck was really hard to understand. Shade thought it was best for him to find a safe place and stop running around.

After calming down, he looked around. This was actually the maze area of ​​the garden. The garden maze built using fences and bushes makes it easy for people not to get lost, but once you walk in rashly, you will definitely not be able to get out without spending some time.

Shade looked at his pocket watch. It had been almost an hour since he parted with Priest August. He didn't know if he would be able to play a role in the next big thing, but at least he couldn't sit here all night.

Continue walking forward and turn left when you encounter a fork in the road between a fence and a tree wall. Not long after I heard the conversation, I felt happy and thought about following the others out, but I stopped when I heard the content of the conversation:

"Nightingale, do you understand? You are not a grey-headed eagle. How can we who are hiding in Tobesk City not be afraid of MI6? How dare you contact me here? Everything is just for the glory of Kasenrik …Wait, did I hear someone approaching?”

"Spies from the United Kingdom of Kasenlik? I have met countless acquaintances, frustrated officers, strange ring magicians, and foreign spies this night. What kind of crazy night is this? Did the Rhodes card just now ruin the whole day? My luck is overdrawn? How does the 20-point dice affect me?"

He turned around and left, unwilling to be involved in such trouble.

Turn right at the next intersection and soon heard footsteps again. The footsteps this time were very dense, and it was obvious that there were more than just one or two people. Now Shade was relieved and walked quickly forward. Then he turned at the end of the hedge and saw a team of ring warlocks under the [Church of the Sun and Earth].

Shade had seen them at the beginning of the banquet. There were dozens of people in the group, and now there were many of them. He was also surprised by the young man who suddenly appeared from the corner.

The strong man at the head looked like a captain. He looked at Shade, and then suddenly asked:

"Sir, why did you attend the dinner at Lakeview Manor?"

It was obviously an ordinary narrative in ordinary language, but Xia De had the urge to blurt out the thoughts in his heart.

"The power of a ring warlock! Fortunately, he didn't expect that I am not an ordinary person."

While thinking in my heart, I didn't suppress the urge to tell the truth, because the truth doesn't matter:

"For playing Rhodes, of course."

He spoke without thinking, but immediately after he finished speaking, a deliberately fake look of surprise appeared on his face.

"You, you, what kind of power is this?"

As he spoke, he covered his mouth and backed away. Shade thought that maybe he was really good at acting.

The captain of the ring warlock team, the man who looked quite strong looked at Shade, then took a step forward, patted his shoulder in a friendly manner, and looked into his eyes at close range. The eyes of this middle-aged man were Brown:

"Sir, forget you've ever met us and do what you're supposed to do."

Shade felt slightly dizzy.

[Pretend to be confused. 】

The murmuring voice prompted Shade to immediately narrow his eyes and shake his body clockwise like a roly-poly.

He thought his disguise was ridiculous, but the ring magicians of [Church of the Sun and Earth] obviously believed it. So he ignored Shade and hurried past him with a group of people.

Shade noticed that the youngest girl with long brown hair in the team glanced at him as she passed him, but did not recognize that Shade had met her in front of the pet store a few days ago. He left in a hurry.

Shade still maintained that ridiculous look, and did not leave until he was sure that he could not hear the footsteps of the Ring Warlock team.

"Luck seems to have suddenly turned bad. Whether it was the eavesdropping near the stables, the encounter with spies from other countries just now, or the encounter with the ring warlock from the Zhengshen Church here, is this the price of good luck? However, meeting the captain should That’s a good thing.”

Xia De was thinking in his heart, but the woman in his heart asked:

[Why can’t these be part of good luck? 】

"What's so good about these things?"

He asked in confusion, lowering his head and walking hurriedly along the courtyard path illuminated by the elegant brass gas lamp. Suddenly someone tapped him on the back. Shade thought that "bad luck" was coming again, but when he turned around, he saw the smiling blonde writer Miss Dorothy Louisa.

She wore a beautiful long dress, but the style was relatively conservative, and the pleats on the skirt were decorated with white lace accessories.

"Oh, that must be good luck!"

If it weren't for the fact that the two parties were not familiar with each other, Shade would have wanted to hug her.

"What good luck...what do you smell like?"

The blond writer asked with a smile, his green eyes looking up and down at Shade, wondering why he was wearing a shirt and holding his coat. Shade thought there was still a lingering smell of horse manure, so he patted his clothes in embarrassment.

"Detective, why are you here? By coincidence, I just met Luvia. She actually came back from Kasenlik yesterday, but she just didn't go to our study meeting. Let me introduce you to her."

Shade thought for a moment in confusion:

"Luvia? Who is that...oh, it's Miss Luvia Anat."

Miss Luvia Anat is the only ring sorcerer in Dr. Schneider's team who has not met Shade. Sanhuan, whose job is to be a staff member of the [Prophet Association], is a jointly trained student of St. Byrons Comprehensive College and the Prophecy Association.

"Let's talk about this later, there are more important things now."

The two of them left the lighted courtyard path together and entered the dimly lit grass on the side.

Shade briefly talked about his encounters with various strange characters tonight, skipped the Rhodes card part, and then talked about the conversation with Priest August an hour ago:

"Priest August said that the church is very likely to close the net tonight and arrest Mrs. Lasoya of [Mercury Blood], that is, Jack Deon. The priest asked me to inform you to leave as soon as possible, and don't do it for [Fake Virtue] Stone] adventure."

When Miss Louisa heard this, her expression became serious:

"Tonight is really not the right time to do anything, but you are really lucky. When the Zhengshen Church's ring warlock team goes out for operations, they usually avoid ordinary people. You actually encountered them three times in one night... Detective, you Never go near the mansion. Since you and the priest will be separated for an hour, then..."

"Dorothy!"

They all heard someone whispering Miss Louisa's name. They looked towards the courtyard path under the gas lamp and saw a young lady wearing a blue dress and short brown hair, walking away with two glasses of wine. Come.

Inexplicably, Shade understood that this woman who looked slightly older than him was the fortune teller Luvia Anat. The last member of the Ring Warlock team finally appeared.

Instead of being happy, he thought in surprise:

"Wait, they're all here? Oh, what on earth is going to happen?"
