Whispering Verse Chapter 1019

He originally wanted to ask Dorothy about the exam questions when he had time in the evening, but the two had just spread out the books in front of the fireplace, and the hot badge on Shade's chest reminded him that the witch had arrived downstairs.

The ringing of the bell downstairs was slower than the heating of the badge, so Shad had time to look out of the living room window. The familiar carriage coming from the snow-capped city meant that it was Miss Galina, not Miss Sylvia, who was visiting this time.

"What's the matter with the devil?"

The big witch acted vigorously, Xia De just opened the door downstairs and she asked immediately. Behind the Duchess was the deep winter night, and Tifa in the night had just stepped off the carriage at this time, and gave Shad a concerned look.

"Oh, Miss Galina, how did you know about this?"

Xia De asked curiously, and then turned sideways to let the Witch and her party in.

The Duchess was very aggressive. After entering the door, she took off the fox fur shawl to keep out the cold and handed it to Tifa:

"I just came back from Sylvia, and she told me about Marguerite Anjou's encounter with a demon. Her Royal Highness didn't mention who she was with, but we knew it as soon as we guessed." It must be related to you. A young girl like Margaret Anjou doesn't know how terrifying the evil spirits of the third era are, so how can we not know? What's going on?”

The concern in his tone was beyond words.

"Let's go upstairs and talk about it, but don't worry, the other party is not a terrible demon. I have already found a way to deal with it."

Miss Galina probably came here in a hurry, and there were only two accompanying maids besides Tifa. They went to the kitchen and prepared tea with Dorothy. Although Rezia hated her aunt a little, Dorothy's attitude towards the duchess was barely neutral, and she didn't have any special thoughts.

"Xia De, do you understand what you encountered?"

After she sat down on the sofa, her tone was still so stern, which made Mia, who was lying in front of the fireplace warming up, squirm and look this way, as if she was worried that Shad would be bullied.

"I've seen Darkness and the human pus, how could I not know what the devil represents?"

Xia De said, and took off the badge that continued to heat up on his chest and handed it to her:

"After the human pus incident, I met a very powerful friend who can help me expel demons. Look at this, I bought it from him for self-defense."

The "Witch Detection Badge" was originally made by Miss Galina for Xia De, so she easily noticed the bone white border on the side of the badge. When Father August made the round bone emblem with angel bones, he took into account the issue of concealment, so under normal circumstances no one would be able to see the function of that layer of bones.

Even after the witch checked, she couldn't find out what it was. It wasn't until she took out a small bottle of black sludge-like thing and dripped it on the badge that the black flame that ignited made her frown relax:

"What material is this magical item made of? It seems that you really know a great alchemist."

"Miss Galina, please don't worry about the devil. I'll take care of it in a week at most. You don't have to worry about me."

Shad said again, then hesitated, and grabbed the Duchess's hand.

The expression on the red-haired witch's face immediately stretched, and she turned her head to look out the window with a very rare blushing face. Standing behind the sofa, Tifa winked her left eye at Shad, which meant encouragement.

"If you think you can handle it, I won't say much, but you must be careful when dealing with things related to demons. The evil spirits of the third era are immortal and can even hide in people's hearts directly."

"I keep a lot of holy water at home, and when the matter is resolved, I take a bath with holy water."

Xia De said again, and then changed the subject:

"Besides the demon thing, I also know another thing. I was at the Three Cats Hotel yesterday, and I met the people from the Apuna Library. In fact, all the fragments of poems they sold were incomplete. The location required for the ceremony of the chosen ones is not the surface of the water, but an 'island in the water'."

"The Church's patience with the [Apner Library] is probably running out."

Miss Galina sighed, Shade didn't say "Sir Priscia is the Chosen One", after all Luvia hasn't figured out how to deal with the fourth Chosen One.

"However, Pantanal Voodoo will..."

She thought about it:

"Sister Divelin is currently investigating the Everglades area, and the council has collected a lot of information to help her. I can't think of the reason why the Voodoo Society is also involved in the matter of the chosen ones. I hope they are just hired thugs. "

The maids brought tea, and Dorothy went straight into the study without any intention of speaking to Miss Galina. The Duchess talked with Xia De for a while, and when the first cup of tea was finished, she glanced at the clock in the corner of the living room:

"There are other things tonight, go out with me now, and come back in about two hours."

"No problem, but what to do? Do I need to prepare additional weapons and spell-casting materials?"

Miss Galina thought for a while:

"There shouldn't be any danger, and Sylvia is going with us. The council has found news of a suspected 'Keeper of Secrets', let's try our luck. You can carry weapons, but in my opinion, that's not necessary."

"A new Keeper? Let's go now."

Considering that the devil is still peeping at himself and Dorothy, Shade didn't carry the [Night Watchman], but left the sword to the girl and cat at home.

He prepared other relics, boarded the carriage of the Duchess in the night, and the carriage drove a group of people to the east of the city.

In the planning of the capital, Tobesk, the east and south of the city are rich areas, but most of the nobles live in the south, and decent middle-class people like Dr. Schneider are concentrated in the east.

In winter, the sun sets very early, and the lowest temperature has already dropped below freezing point, which also makes people try not to stay on the street at night as much as possible. The nominal center of the eastern part of the city is the local Natural Church. The carriage carrying the people did not pass by there, but Xia De could see the magnificent side tower of the Natural Church a few streets away in the night, and under the faint moonlight Is the tower at the top of the shining church.

Two streets west of the Natural Church, there is the very famous Regent's Park in Tobesk. It was established to commemorate the Regent John about 200 years ago. It is the largest park in the urban area of ​​Tobesk. The establishment and maintenance here are also related to the Natural Church.

And tonight's goal is this park.

The carriage passed the bridge across the Ningdon River quietly, and when it stopped at the head of the bridge, Miss Sylvia in a black dress was waiting for them in the shadow of the unlit street lamps.

Not far from the Witch is the Nington River. This river is incomparable to the Terraria River in the west of the Yodel Palace. It is just a decorative river with a small flow in the city.

Due to the heavy snow a few days ago, the river channel was frozen at this time, and snowflakes covered the ice. On the riverside at night, the witch, like the beautiful woman in the landscape oil painting, was staring at the river. After the carriage stopped, she turned and walked to the elegant gas lamp at the bridge.

"Shade handles the devil's affairs by himself."

The Duchess said simply, and then told Tifa:

"You are waiting for us in the carriage with Julia and Anne."

"Yes, miss."

Tifa, who was about to get off the carriage, shrank back again, and after handing a heavy cloth bag to Shade, the silent coachman drove them away.

"What were you looking at just now?"

Miss Galina asked Miss Sylvia, and also looked at the river under the sparse starlight:

"The river here doesn't stink. It seems that the Church of Nature has done something."

"I'm calculating the snowfall in Tobesk."

Miss Sylvia said simply, and smiled at Xia De:

"If my digital divination is correct, the snowfall in Tobesk this winter will far exceed the level of previous years...Shad, do you really need us to help you with the devil's affairs?"

"No need, I can solve it myself."

"I like the snowy weather very much. Stop chatting here and go this way."

The Duchess said in a low voice, she led the way in front, walked down the bridge and turned to the left, and she had already arrived at the gate of Regent's Park.

Regent's Park was originally a private garden of the royal family. It was opened to the public from the time of Rezia's great-grandfather, and then held the De La Rion-Caserick Industrial Fair. Every summer, a grand seatless concert is held here, and the Regent Lake in the middle of the park is a good place to take a walk after dinner.

Roentgen Boulevard, where Dr. Schneider's clinic is located, is a 10-minute walk away. Doctors often come here for a walk when they are free.

Of course, Regent's Park on a winter night is deserted. Because some people illegally stored steam engine parts in the park a few years ago, which triggered a joint protest from nearby residents, the land use and opening hours of Regent's Park were strictly restricted by the city hall.

The park is not allowed to enter at this time, but for Xia De and the two witches, this is not a problem at all.

Walking inward along the gravel path, stepping on the snow on the ground through the sparse coniferous forest, after walking down the dirt slope, not far away is the Regent Lake in the dark.

The area of ​​this small lake is only a quarter of the size of Saint Teresa Square. It is an artificial lake dug out and connected to the Ningdon River.

"right here."

Miss Galina said softly ~www.mtlnovel.com~ The two witches walked beside Xia De, one on the left and the other on the right. Xia De carried the canvas bag and looked at the lake by the moonlight.

"I didn't feel any trace of the elements."

Xia De whispered softly, and his nose smelled two kinds of perfume at the same time. Although these are both unique fragrances called "The Smell of a Witch", they actually taste different.

Probably noticing Shade's imperceptible movement of shaking his nose, Miss Sylvia blushed a little, but said nothing with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Yes, before that, I looked through the files of Ridwich Field. In the past few months, the strange rumors that have spread here are only the young men and women who broke into the tryst at night and heard someone singing in the lake. "

Miss Galina said, looking at Miss Sylvia, the witch with black shawl and short hair nodded slowly:

"We need a special way to summon the Keeper, but we need to do other things before that."
