"What are you doing standing here? Sit down and talk."
Granny Cassandra said to the others that although the old witch's seat was very low, as the oldest witch in this era, she was quite respected in the parliament. So Miss Sylvia and Miss Aurora also sat down.
Tifa and Miss Swift stood behind their respective teachers.
Although there were a lot of things to talk about tonight, Shade couldn't sit down casually, otherwise the witch corresponding to the seat would sense it. He came to the table, held the table with both hands, and exposed himself to the skylight:
"Good evening, ladies, let me make a long story short. I was recently active near the city of Randall Valley in the United Kingdom of Carsonlik. There was nothing wrong with me at first, but today I bumped into a witch there, at least I think it was a witch. Excuse me, what about that?
Which one is it?"
Miss Aurora looked at Miss Sylvia, who nodded:
"Since it is the Randall Valley, it must be the ninth seat of the council, the witch of the earth, the eleventh order - Vanessa Benanis."
Shade was not too surprised:
"The leader of the Golden Dawn Opera Company, Baron Vanessa Benenice, who became famous more than ten years ago and is known as the best opera singer of this era?"
This lady's baronetcy was obtained because of her superb artistic level. Moreover, she is not only the baron of Carsonlik, but also the honorary baron of Delrayon.
"Yes, that's her."
Miss Sylvia looked at Shade with some concern:
"What did you do in Randall Valley City recently? Did you find the Chosen One again?"
"How could the chosen one be met so easily?"
Shade hurriedly denied:
"I'm going to the local place to buy some herbs and find a relic along the way. Oh, how do you get along with that witch? What will happen if she sees me?"
He asked the four witches, and this time Granny Cassandra gave the answer:
"Vanessa is not an easy girl to get along with, and besides me, she is older than all the girls here now."
In fact, she is only in her thirties, and considering that witches themselves are not prone to aging, Miss Benenice looks to be of the same age as Miss Aurora.
"The older a witch is, the more she will adhere to the principle that witches cannot touch men. You can understand this. So, I'm afraid it won't be easy for her to easily accept your existence."
Grandma Cassandra said worriedly.
The old witch was friendly to Shade because of Grace and Helen, but it was obvious that Shade would never encounter such a thing again.
"Benanis mentioned you at the meeting tonight, but she didn't mention her name. She just said that she noticed some bad changes in the Randall Valley and mentioned that there was someone who could purify the land."
Miss Carina also said, and added something that Shade didn't know:
"Ordinary ring magicians may not know it, but the knowledge passed down by the Council contains many records about that city. The Randall Valley is the place where the ancient god [Earth Mother Goddess] left. It is the center point of the earth's pulse in the material world.
.In the ancient First Age, mortals who believed in the earth gathered there, regarding it as the center of the earth in a mystical sense."
"If there is a problem with the land in the Randall Valley, it may cause anomalies in the entire material world. However, Vanessa also said that this kind of land pollution problem will always occur every ten years, but it happened this time
In her manor, Benanis herself can sense the anomalies in the land, but there is no complete solution, so she tries to find solutions outside of the church."
Miss Carina continued to speak. She had not seen him for more than half a month, and she missed the young knight standing not far away at the moment:
"In short, if you plan to stay in the Randall Valley for a long time, you can't avoid Vanessa all the time. My opinion is that you can go to see her, but you have to be prepared."
"We can write her a letter and you bring it to her. Bernanice planned to buy the local Wilde Opera House years ago and borrowed eight thousand crowns from me. Even for the sake of the money
, she won’t do anything to you either.”
Miss Aurora also said that eight thousand crowns is equivalent to about one hundred thousand gold pounds. This is a big business that outsiders cannot imagine.
"I also have contact with Miss Benanis. Margaret has no space talent and is destined to be unable to become my apprentice. I introduced her to Benanis, and I thought Margaret might be able to persuade her. Speaking of which
, Margaret will arrive in the Randall Valley tomorrow, and you will probably be able to see her soon."
Miss Sylvia also said that she did not follow the princess to the Randall Valley. This was partly because there were witches in the area, and partly because the business she invested in had reached a critical stage at this time.
"Then write a letter to at least guarantee that Benanis will not fight with Shade. If she still has questions, we can meet in the parliament to resolve them."
Grandma Cassandra made a decision on this matter, Shade nodded:
"So the Golden Dawn Opera Company actually is."
"Yes, it is an organization composed of her followers. But it is not just her followers. If I remember correctly, Granny Cassandra said, have you met Miss Grande today?"
The red-haired duchess asked, and when Shade nodded, she said again:
"The Golden Dawn was originally a remnant of the sect of an old god who had departed, and Miss Siris Grand Lassus was the original owner of the Golden Dawn. Miss Lassus, that is you.
Miss Grande met Vanessa in an era when the Order was about to disappear completely. With Vanessa's help, she overcame the difficulties and reorganized the Order. Later, Vanessa's followers merged with the Order of the Old God.
A new Golden Dawn was formed. Vanessa serves as the leader, and Miss Siris Lassus is the deputy leader and deputy, and is very trusted by Vanessa."
This is also the reason why Shade did not feel any witch power from that lady. Since she is the leader of the old god’s order that has left, it is naturally impossible for her to convert to the ancient god [Chaos Witch]. Therefore, Mag
It is possible for Li Te to become the apprentice of Miss Vanessa Benanis, the witch of the earth:
"So, um. What's that kind of relationship between Miss Lassers and Miss Benenice?"
Shade asked tentatively, but Granny Cassandra shook her head:
"Vanessa is a celibate and has long said that she prefers to live alone. As for her and Siris Grand Lassus, it is a strong relationship that transcends family, love and friendship. It is very complicated, you
I'm still young, so I probably won't understand."
Xia De didn't ask any more questions, but he also understood that there must be many stories in it:
"So, is the Golden Dawn Opera Troupe considered a ring magician group under the Witch Council?"
Miss Sylvia nodded:
"Yes, if Sister Devlin's [Spiritual Order] is an ally, then [Golden Dawn] is the real affiliated organization. Therefore, you can try to start from the direction of the deputy leader, Miss Lassers,
To win the favor of Miss Bernanise. I once met Miss Lassus, she is a lady with a good personality. And because she is only the leader of the Old God Order and not a witch, she is usually responsible for the external affairs of the opera company.
So there is no prejudice against men."
Shade could also feel this. When she walked with Miss Sirius Lassus during the day, she did not show any malice or arrogance.
"Anyway, Benenice is now in the Randall Valley, busy acquiring the Opera House, and planning to give Margaret Anjou a test. In addition, she has recently been investigating unusual land contamination issues,
And chasing a sage-level relic that appeared in the opera house, she is busier than us."
Miss Aurora made a summary, and the four great witches quickly discussed what to write in the letter to Miss Benanis. However, when Miss Carina began to write the letter, she also gave a special warning.
Shade should not open this letter in advance, which aroused Shade's curiosity.
"Since Miss Benanis is the eleventh ring, is she very powerful in combat?"
While the witches were writing letters, Shade asked again.
"Why, are you worried that she will fight with you?"
Miss Aurora teased:
"Of course you can't beat the eleventh-level witch as an ordinary person, but although it is difficult to specify her combat power, I can guarantee that she is definitely not as strong as Carina."
"I will hold a ceremony next and be promoted to the twelfth ring. How can she be better than me?"
The duchess answered and continued:
"Vanessa is not the kind of ring sorcerer who is good at fighting. Although she is stronger than ordinary ring sorcerers because she has two systems at the same time, she is still a little weaker than a normal witch. So even though she has eleven rings, she
She has a lower seat than me. However, she also has her own pride. She is the first witch in the parliament to master the Mystery Lock at the eleventh level in the past four hundred years."
"Mystery lock?"
Shade had systematically studied the Mystery Lock Theory from Professor Garcia's course "Closed Space", so he knew that it was difficult to master this strange power through normal means. Even with his abnormal means, it was quite difficult.
Miss Sylvia, the great witch of space, nodded, signed her name, put her seal on the written letter, and then handed it to Granny Cassandra:
"Mystery - a golden theater that celebrates glory. When my teacher was still here, he took me to see this mystery. It was very strange and beautiful. However, it did not call the opera character in the mystery, but let her
You become the only protagonist. Speaking of which, if you really make a move with her, you can try to show part of your secret lock, and she might stop because of curiosity."
"Instead of showing the secret lock, it is better to show the charm. Shade's charm in attracting witches is unparalleled."
Miss Carina said with a smile. Except for Granny Cassandra, the five ladies present—even Tifa and Miss Swift—all showed tacit smiles.
Although Xia De felt that he had been slandered, he couldn't say much at this time:
"Miss Carina, haven't you finished handling your matters in Saladir County?"
"Why, do you miss me or Tifa?"
She took the last signed letter from Miss Aurora and sealed it carefully:
"The matter is almost settled. We will return to Tobesk around the beginning of next month. Maybe we can catch up with little Agelina's birthday."
She raised her beautiful golden eyes and looked at Shade with a somewhat lazy expression:
"Don't forget to greet us when the time comes."
