Shade asked, and the witch, who was also frowning and suffering from a headache, nodded:
"Yes, she is just as talented as her twin sisters, but her talent is a little less. The violent spirit just now is enough to support the awakening of the witch."
"Mia, are you okay?"
Shade hurriedly looked at the cat he had just held in his arms. He had just tried to turn the cat directly back into a toy, but was met with resistance from the cat - this kind of thaumaturgy requires complete trust and a little resistance.
Thoughts will fail.
At this time, when I looked at the cat, its orange and white fur became smoother and glossier. When Shade tried his hand, Mia lay lazily in Shade's arms and glanced at him.
Nothing seemed to happen.
The ordinary bard's eyes experienced slight changes, the witch became stronger, and the maid awakened. Shade also encountered a sandstorm and witnessed incredible natural phenomena, and of course he also gained something.
[Outlander, your thaumaturgy - the Seaton Seal has changed. When casting the spell, you no longer need to pierce the sword into the ground. You only need to hold the sword and make the corresponding gesture, and you can move the position during the cast. At the same time, "Hope"
The strength of the "Dun Seal" is greatly increased, and when using thaumaturgy to defend and counterattack, the power of the counterattack is increased.】
It can be said that the most convenient defensive thaumaturgy that Shade currently uses has undergone a qualitative change due to this change. Although Shade did not obtain new spiritual runes and thaumaturgy as a result, he was satisfied enough.
"But what happened just now?"
He raised his head to ask the gods, and the traveler who was covered in dust asked:
"You will always encounter some incredible things during your journey. Does everything have to have an explanation? You are just travelers, not investigators, and not mystical scholars. Witness these scenery, not study them."
"It is our responsibility to witness the scenery of the journey and turn them into stories."
The bard covering his eyes said unexpectedly, and the god smiled and nodded:
"Look at the traveler under the moon, he has understood it. Do you understand it?"
"I don't quite understand, but I don't have much time left."
Although I was just telling a story, time passed quickly, and the half-hour countdown had come to the end.
"enough."
The god waited for the travelers to adapt to their respective powers, and then continued to tell the following story:
"The travelers huddled together to avoid the dust in the sky, but they also gained their own rewards. When the wind and sand stopped and you were finally able to look around, it was already evening. Those who are afraid of the power of the desert
Travelers, follow your original plan and head towards the snow-capped mountains in the distance, and set up camp on the edge of the desert and snow-capped mountains. Thanks to the power of travelers under the moon, you are not affected by the severe cold here. But if you want to go deep into the snow-capped mountains, you must consider the wind.
A test of snow and temperature.”
"Since you have to leave again, remember to find a way to get us something to keep warm next time."
The witch immediately said to Shade, who nodded in agreement:
"No problem. Since it was me who suggested coming to the Snow Mountain, of course I will find a way. I don't have much time left, so I will leave after the fourth night."
He looked at the maid in black dress who had just become a witch, and the latter reached out to turn over the cards. On the cards, there was a scene that had appeared in the small camp where everyone was currently. In other words, it was another peaceful night.
"According to the current progress and the time you stay here each time, the next time will be the end of the journey."
The witch looked at the card, breathed a sigh of relief and warned Shade:
"The last three days of this journey will definitely not be that simple. Unexpected things may happen on the night of the last day of the journey. Clara and I, oh, and the bard over there, can only wait for fate now.
I still have to wait for the girl I'm looking for to reappear, but you still have a chance to make changes. Think about it carefully, maybe you can do something to help us."
"Yes, I understand."
Shade nodded, and the god smiled as he watched their conversation. The bard also hesitated and said to Shade:
"Sir, could you bring me something next time you show up?"
"what would you like?"
Shade asked curiously.
"Ink and paper."
"no problem."
Shade already has these things in his pocket. If they are just ordinary items, he does not even need to make additional preparations.
The thirty minutes have come to an end, and the interesting travel stories will be paused again. As the white mist swept in, Shade turned the cat into a toy and put it away. He stood up and walked to the outside of the camp, waving to his companions
Then, it disappeared in the fog that only he and God could see.
The mist shrouded the forest under the deep night, and the crackling bonfire made the night even more lonely. The witch sighed softly and asked the gods who had not yet disappeared:
"Excuse me, where do the travelers under the moon come from?"
"The other side of time."
God did not hide this secret, and the witch just nodded slightly, which was also her guess.
"Travelers, please take a break. This night is very long, but more than half of it has been spent. I hope you like the story of this journey and gain something from it. Leaving here is not your greatest hope, is it?"
The figure of the god disappeared in the swaying light and shadow of the bonfire, and some poor food appeared in front of the remaining three people. What followed was another long wait. The bard stood up consciously and sat on the other side of the bonfire, holding a
Stroking the lute that the god had just played, he looked at the bonfire and thought about his deceased relatives and his married childhood playmates.
The witch Andreana looked at the maid who was still a little confused because she was not used to the power:
"Clara, how are you feeling now?"
"I'm fine, miss."
The young witch looked at her maid, with a somewhat sad look in her eyes, but soon her look turned firm:
"We have reached the second half of the trip. I think there is a very important question that you must answer me: Have you always been jealous of your sister? Jealous of her power, jealous that she can get my favor?"
The young maid pursed her lips and looked at her master. The two looked at each other like this. The firelight made their shadows sway together on the ground, almost entangled together, but neither one spoke.
(Little Mia is running...)
"So, how did little Mia learn to breathe fire?"
Shade, who returned to the present time, immediately wanted to explore the secrets of the cat. After he walked out of the room, he took the cat out of his pocket. After turning into a real cat, he patted the cat's little head:
"Mia, try again."
But the cat, who squinted his eyes to feel the comfort of his home, paid no attention to him. Luvia was still standing where she was when she said goodbye to Sha De, and Yin Luna also came over from the kitchen:
"What happened to your cat, I mean little Mia?"
So Shade told about Mia's "superpower" that appeared again, but neither Luvia nor Yin Luna thought that spitting out sparks from the mouth was a major event worthy of attention:
"Relatively speaking, the ability to make fire from the tail is a truly remarkable ability, and it has a very unique symbolism. Shade, didn't you take the course "Amazing Flesh and Flesh: Limbs and Ether" as an elective? You should learn it.
And there is no exam in this course. You only need to submit an essay for assessment. You have missed the registration time this semester. I can remind you in the fall. Since its tail can catch fire, it is only a matter of time that you can master it by spitting fire from its mouth.
Ability."
"Meow~"
The orange-white cat huddled comfortably in Shade's arms. Although Shade turned from a cat into a human again, it still liked Shade.
This was not the first time that Shade discovered the strangeness in Mia. Seeing that it was impossible to explain it, he could only attribute it to the bloodline of the "Son of the Sun".
Afterwards, he shared the story of this adventure with the two girls. This adventure was not particularly exciting and did not involve serious battles, but it was still quite interesting.
The genie in the bottle, the river of death, the desert, the blazing sun, and the poem played and sung by the god himself. These are all interesting stories that you can't encounter under normal circumstances, even if you just listen to Shade's description, the girls
She was already yearning for it. However, Luvia was more concerned about the Impermanence card, while Yin Luna was interested in the stories of her companions on the journey:
"The Old Knight's Tale is a bit like the fairy tale of "The Lovers of the Bell Tower," isn't it?"
She asked Xiang Shade:
"Perhaps in fairy tales, the young knight who was supposed to die on the front line received help from the gods before he could return to the bell tower and reunite with his lover's bones. They even bonded together and never separated. The two became one, one body.
Sharing the same heart...it’s so romantic.”
She showed a longing look, but Shade felt that Yin Luna's description was more like a horror story. As for the ending of the old knight, he could only say that everyone has the right to make a choice. For the old man, this ending was actually
Not very bad.
As for the next "snowy mountain trip" after using the key, Yin Luna also promised that this time she would get the things needed for Shade to keep the travelers in the story warm in the snowy mountains. The Church of the Sun has many alchemy items.
It can be done, not to mention that Shade can also carry the fire of the sun in the attic. In the adventure of the Silver Mountains, he has already tried to bring warmth to people in the past. The only difference this time is that the coldness comes from that story.
Luvia had to go to work at the Prophet's Association, so she quickly left No. 6, St. Teresa Square. And Yin Luna, who was deliberately left behind by Shade, also heard what Shade wanted to do in the study:
“Can you teach me the ‘Power of the Earth·Earth Energy Cannon’ technique that you used in Randall Valley?”
