The lively birthday party lasted from the evening until late at night. In order to make the atmosphere more lively, the maids in the manor also participated to enhance the atmosphere.
Sumptuous meals, interesting banquet games, everyone’s laughter as they shared stories, and the family gathering together made the joyful atmosphere last until late at night.
Megan and Audrey were the first to leave. They used special relics to temporarily come to Tobesk, but they must go back when the time is up;
Iluna also left second because she still had work the next day. Some drunk girls pulled Shade's sleeves and said something that no one could understand before leaving. But Miss Carina was very suspicious.
whether she was really drunk;
Grace and Helen were the third to leave. Although the Red Butterfly girl could stay with Shade and leave the area of Middleburg, she still couldn't do this for a long time;
Agelina was reluctant to leave, even saying that she wanted to attend the next party, but she was still forced back to the city by her sister and aunt:
"Be more reserved. How can Agelina, the princess of the Cavendish family, be like this?"
This is what Lesia said when she put Agelina into the carriage.
As for Lecia, Dorothy, Miss Carina and Luvia who were left behind, the strangers did not want to recall what happened next that night.
After the birthday party, Tifa handed Shade a red hard-covered program list and claimed that this was the next performance that Shade could choose from:
"This is a real birthday present for you ladies, these shows take place over a day or so."
Before Shade opened it, he thought it was Miss Carina who invited a theater troupe to celebrate his birthday, but after opening it, he saw "The Cavendish Dance", "Prize Quiz: Blindfolded Guess", "Princess"
Writer's Magic Show", "Fabric Exhibition Experience", "Tango for Two", "The Art of Binding", "Maid Dressing Experience Show", "Wine Tasting", etc. The names are quite inappropriate.
Only the last piece looked normal, "Opera: Four Heroes Defeat the Unclean Knight". I don't know if it was a wheel battle or a joint action by the braves.
In short, it is rarely Shade's birthday, and the girls don't mind a little indulgence. The manor originally belonged to Shade's guest room. Now he stays in the master bedroom every time he comes, on the bed that is covered by curtains. After that
Many stories happened.
They didn't know what they had discussed in advance. When Shade was pushed into the room on Sunday night, the curtains were immediately drawn. And before Monday evening, the doors and windows of the entire Carina Manor had not been opened again.
.
Shade has the thaumaturgy of "Contacting the Father of the Infinite Tree", so he will not miscalculate the time. A real birthday party was specially prepared for him in the closed manor. Compared with the gifts from the princess, the writer and the female fortune teller at the end of the year,
, this time the gift was more thoughtful from the Duchess, and seemed more enthusiastic and confusing to outsiders.
And on Monday afternoon, although one of Dorothy and Lesia left because the Red Butterfly Day was over, in fact, as long as one of them was there, it was equivalent to everyone being there.
Shade felt like they wanted to help him test the limits of his physical ability, or they really just celebrated his birthday. But such physical activities that did not involve spiritual exertion and the environment did not have a negative impact on him, even the girls
They could recover their strength by taking turns to rest, but when the lively party ended, only Shade and the red-faced maids enjoyed the Monday evening dinner.
Without the constraints of the mistress of the manor, the maids also raised glasses together to congratulate Shade on his birthday at dinner that day.
So far, the outsider has gone through his first year in this world, and the story in the future will be very long.
Continuous physical exercise is still very tiring, so although the birthday party only lasted until Monday evening, the girls asked Shade to rest until Tuesday morning.
In their free time, they like to listen to Shade telling them all kinds of love words that they never tire of hearing, although Shade himself doesn’t feel that they are love words. Even if they don’t rest in the bedroom, they can still let Shade talk to them about various things in the study.
, or go for a walk on the lawn of the manor courtyard together. Megan Audrey and Helen Grace are not here, but there is still a family atmosphere here.
At noon on Tuesday, the family finally had lunch together again. Dorothy could not get up in the morning. Although her soul was two parts, her body was only one.
The atmosphere at lunch that day was also quite harmonious. The radiant ladies with red hair, brown hair and blond hair were chatting and laughing about interesting things in life, and talking about things related or unrelated to Shade. And Shade noticed that Lu Wei
Ya always looked at herself quietly, but when he looked at her, she suddenly turned her head away from him.
As for the birthday party, no one took the initiative to mention it. It was a special commemorative event held to commemorate Sha De's birthday. The girls were still a little shy about it, even if they didn't mind messing around with Sha De, but like this
If Xia De wants to carry out a similar activity, he may have to wait a long time.
For example, this year’s New Year’s Day.
After lunch, the purple-eyed girl asked him coyly in private;
"I spent the night at your house before, weren't you actually that happy?"
Shade was confused for a moment before asking Luvia to remember to go to No. 6 Saint Teresa Square tonight. Luvia showed a scared expression, but still nodded, and then kissed Shade goodbye like Dorothy and asked Shade to stand.
At the door of the manor house, they watched the carriage drive them away.
In fact, Shade is planning to open this month's black time key tonight, and it's time to go find the long-haired Luvia and ask some questions.
In short, the new week for Shade officially started on Tuesday. Shade did not leave immediately after lunch because he had to wait for Miss Carina to return after attending the meeting of the Witch Council two hours later.
.
While waiting, he retrieved the cat that he had not had much contact with in the past two days. Little Mia seemed quite angry with him at first, but then she was touched by Shade a few times, fed some afternoon tea snacks, and let him lie on his back again.
On the legs, the cat returned to normal.
The maids who were just serving Shade while he was reading and drinking afternoon tea in the study room would suddenly turn red once Shade saw them, and then walk away quickly with their heads lowered. This almost made Shade think that he had suddenly obtained something.
Some sort of Pink Book eye magic.
Fortunately, Tifa discovered the abnormality of the maids, called them away and gave them a few words of discipline, and the maids barely returned to normal:
"Everyone is just a little 'afraid' of you."
When she bent down to pour tea for Shade, the head maid explained softly. Then she kept bending down, turned her head slightly, blinked at him a few times with her brown eyes, and a smile appeared on her face:
"Happy birthday, Shade."
Shade felt his heart stop beating for a few seconds:
"Thanks."
"Vanessa, Emma and Sylvie, let me say happy birthday to you. Also, Vanessa did find out about the 'Hope Diamond'."
After the meeting in the afternoon, Miss Carina, who returned from the parliament, also brought good news to Shade. Shade put down the "Psychic Compass" that Miss Danist gave him on Green Island, and saw that it was
The duchess, who sat down on the sofa in the study, didn't seem very happy about this.
"Shad, that relic definitely won't be in Tobesk so precisely. If you really want to find it, I'm afraid you'll have to go somewhere else."
Shade shook his head indifferently:
"It doesn't matter. After a whole month's rest, it's time to do some activities. Where? The New Continent or the Old Continent, or in the archipelago area?"
He hugged the cat and asked, then the red-haired witch pointed to the map hanging in the study:
"The west coast of the Old World, Yuewan area."
Shade frowned slightly:
"It's so far away, and it's Kasenlik."
"The City of Wealth - Moon Bay City. I don't know if you know about it. Although the Moon Bay area is the land of Kasenrik, it has great autonomy. The city's joint council composed of nobles who have seized wealth controls the city.
Most of the power in that area. The nobles and a small number of wealthy businessmen who sit on the golden seats created by wealth make the city that is bright and beautiful on the surface secretly filled with darkness."
Miss Carina said, and also gave a vivid example:
"You can think of the nobles of Moon Bay as a beggar version of the Witch Emperor."
Shade laughed. The Outsider had talked about that city with Lesia some time ago, and he already knew Moon Bay because of Sparrow Hamilton's incident, so she didn't need to introduce much:
"But it's also a paradise for adventurers from the Old World who don't want to go to the New World. If you want to get ahead, you can always find opportunities in that city where gold and steam revolution technology are piled up, where gears and clockwork rotate. Of course, that's if you don't
It is regarded as the flesh-and-blood lubricant of the city. So, where exactly is the Diamond of Hope? Or what are the vague clues?"
"Vanessa gave you the letter, read it yourself."
Miss Carina handed the envelope to Shade, and Shade asked with some confusion:
"I remember, isn't it true that items can't be passed around easily in the council? The items brought by anyone can only be taken away by the owner and cannot be taken away by other witches."
"That was originally the case, but now that sisters Vanessa and Megan have advanced to the twelfth level, the parliament also has more diverse functions."
She sighed sadly:
"We great witches are incomparable to those witches in the Fifth Era who were at least thirteenth level and even reached the level of demigod. Because of this, the council has many restrictions on us. The space left by the ancient gods is definitely not just the ones we have now.
Power. As for the full functions of the Parliament, I am afraid only the Speaker can know them all."
Shade then opened the letter, which didn't contain much. Through her friends in the Moon Bay area, Miss Benanis found out that about twenty years ago, a local fortune teller claimed to have found the relic, but later
The church and various forces conducted investigations, but no results were obtained.
No one can be sure whether the unknown-level relic is really in the hands of the diviner. But it is a level 0 relic after all. When the church heard about this twenty years ago, it wanted to "protect" it.
, it’s a pity that the fortune teller got the news in advance and ran away.
But the exact information shows that the diviner is still in the Moon Bay area. Although it is not certain when he or she came back, by finding that person, it is possible to find out the current whereabouts of the "Hope Diamond".
