At dinner that day, all the witches who cherished the opportunity that no one had left appeared at the table. In other words, except for Carina and Lesia, who had already left, even Margaret turned away the others.
We had dinner with everyone on the Radiant Messenger.
Miss Eleser gave up the main seat of the restaurant to Shade. As guests, Miss Feliana and Fiona were on Shade's left and right respectively. The witches of the fifth era were not idle today either. They were at Gray's in the morning.
Si and Helen chatted with them for a long time before leaving. They did not leave the ship in the afternoon, but kept chatting with the ship's girls in the captain's cabin.
They must have talked about the current era, but most of them were probably things that Shade couldn't know. The dragon spell spell given to Shade by the boat girl who lived in the late fifth era actually summoned someone from the middle of the fifth era.
Witches, this already shows that the demigod witches should have penetrated most of the fifth era to a certain extent.
During dinner that day, Shade did not forget to mention to the countess what Mr. Albert said about the dragon scales. Although Shade gave the witch the ruling law granted by the blessing of the fourth son in the form of a "power of attorney"
, but he still returned the golden dragon scales belonging to Belindel:
"This is something passed down by your ancestors. It's better for you to keep it. The chosen one said that he has no need for these dragon scales. It's enough for me to keep these in my hand."
"I don't understand something!"
Agelina asked sheepishly:
"Why can the descendants of the fourth son of the ancient god grant people such a rule of law?"
"According to the Chosen One, this territory originally belonged to the fourth son of the ancient god and was passed down from generation to generation. This fact has not changed even today."
Shade, who was cutting the steak, replied, and Miss Feliana kindly continued to explain:
"Just like the far north where St. Byrons is located, it was originally the night kingdom of the old god [God of Night]. We obtained that territory with the consent of the god, so no matter what happens, unless we give up voluntarily, otherwise
That land will always be ours, that is the origin and proof of ownership."
Fiona nodded quickly and looked at Shade with a smile. The countess took the dragon scale that flew towards her, and Miss Aurora asked Shade curiously:
"What do you plan to do with the remaining six pieces?"
Shade has already thought about this problem:
"Let our Countess make her own decision. Although the highest priority rule of law is Belindel, if other families can welcome the dragon scales again, at least the noble titles and wealth can be passed down.
I don’t plan to return the brass dragon scales of the Hawthorne family and the black dragon scales of the Black family. For the rest, it depends on what Miss Belindle thinks.”
"There is no eternal power, no eternal domination."
The fat-red birthmark between the eyebrows sets off that beautiful face:
"Let Shade keep the rest. If they deserve Moon Bay, they can still enjoy power even without the ruling law given by Dragon Scale."
Although she said this, she put away the golden dragon scales belonging to her family:
"Moon Bay is bordered by Carina's Saladir County. When I fully control Moon Bay, Saladir County located inland will have direct access to the seaport from the west coast of the Old World. What's the smuggling business?
It’s a small matter, it means that now in the Sixth Age, the land controlled by the witches has extended from the coastline into the inland, which is good for everyone.”
As he spoke, he raised his glass, and everyone else also raised their glasses and touched it.
Luvia is very supportive of her approach:
"It's good that the dragon scales are no longer circulating. There are no ring warlocks among the other six major families. Giving extraordinary items to them might cause other disasters."
Then she mentioned another thing. In Luvia's view, the chain reaction caused by the change in the political structure of Yuewan City and the aftermath of the Civil War that may affect the entire Old Continent are not important to her at all:
"Shad, Iluna sent a letter this afternoon. Miss Danister would like to find time to meet and chat with you in the next two days. I think she wants to resolve questions about the Battle of Moon Bay."
"Is that thirteenth-level sorceress the current academy librarian?"
The red dragon girl asked curiously, Shade nodded, and then Miss Feliana suggested:
"How about I accompany you then? I also want to talk to the current professor at St. Byrons. Especially, I heard from Miss Anat that she is your current tutor?"
"um, yes."
"Teacher, can I go too?"
The red dragon girl asked enthusiastically, and then she got the answer.
After dinner, Shade did not go out again, but went to visit Emilia. His affairs in Moon Bay were over, and there were only the last two or three weeks of Emilia's summer vacation. He wanted to ask
When does the elf girl plan to return to the academy?
When Shade found Emilia, she was running with the little unicorn on the deck. Miss Eliaser's illusion made the people on the dock unable to see the beautiful little beast clearly on the deck, so they could freely run around on the deck.
Playing under the stars.
"I'm trying to help little Leanna lose weight. She's been eating a little too much recently."
The girl with pointed ears explained that she was too embarrassed to tell Shade that she had gained a lot of weight recently:
"Agelina was originally going to take a walk with us, but she said she wanted to pack her luggage, so Miss Servit took Shade away. I have to leave too, right?"
She leaned against the railing and looked at Shad with her emerald green eyes. The little unicorn stood aside and looked at the two of them, and then looked at the cat on Shad's shoulder:
"It depends on your own wishes. It's just that the academy's team will leave Yuewan soon. It will be more convenient for you to return to the academy with them."
Amelia didn't have the nerve to ask "Do you want me to leave?", but whispered:
"Yes, things in Yuewan are over, and summer is coming to an end."
She pursed her lips and looked at Shade like this:
"Thank you for your hospitality. I had a great time in Tobesk and Moon Bay this summer. Little Lianna is also very happy. I don't know when the next time I will leave the academy will be."
The voice became lower and lower, until Shade could no longer hear what she was saying. The elf girl's eyes were a little red as she lowered her head. For a moment, she really wanted to ask Shade if she was willing to
She brought Tobesk back and made her also a correspondence cyclomancer.
But she knew that this was impossible. Her race and origin determined that she was destined to be different from humans, so she did not have the courage to ask this question that would only annoy everyone. She just said with a forced smile:
"Then I will return to the academy with Miss Danister and the principal. This time I have been away for too long. My family and friends will miss me very much. Oh, the dormitory of the academy, little Liana and the others
The habitat, the big library, and the cherry cake for lunch, that seems to have happened many years ago."
"If you hadn't started crying as you spoke, I might have really believed you."
Shade bent down slightly, trying to wipe away her falling tears with his hands in the night wind:
"If you don't want to let the summer end like this, you can stay for a while. When you want to go back, I will inform Miss Denist. Will the academy start in September? There is still more than half a month left."
But Emilia grabbed Shade's hand, preventing him from wiping away the tears that kept falling, and looked at him stubbornly with her emerald eyes:
"No need to do this, I don't want to trouble you. Summer is over, no matter how reluctant I am to part with it, the summer of 1854 is already over for me."
Even if she really cried in the next second, Shade would not be surprised, but after experiencing the adventure in Moon Bay, Emilia Siam Nord was much stronger than anyone imagined. Tears were still rolling down.
, she looked at Xia De through the stars and the moon:
"Thank you, Shade, this summer, thank you for being frozen in my heart. I will remember you."
"Don't make it sound like we'll never see each other again."
Shade looked at her with a smile. The skin of the elves was extremely delicate, and no pores could be seen at all even at such a close distance. The emerald eyes were somewhat different from Dorothy's blue eyes, and her pointed ears were like hers.
What is most different from human girls:
"We will meet again in the academy, and if you want, you can apply to go to Tobesk for summer practice next summer.
And don’t thank me, Emilia, the memories of this summer were created by you, me, Agelina, little Lianna, and more. I just brought you into trouble again and again.
, Emilia, we will meet again."
He looked at the crying girl and suddenly took a breath, then time went back and the tears that had fallen flowed upward again and disappeared.
He said seriously to the young elf under the starry sky:
"Don't freeze your time, Emilia. Whether you are looking backward or moving forward, don't be overly nostalgic for the stories you have experienced. Because only when the river of time carries you forward can you encounter new things.
Only with friends can we have new reunions."
Behind Emilia, thick steam mist appeared silently. Amidst the sound of bells and whistles, her five-ring life ring emerged, and some gray airflow generated by Shade's "Breath of Time" spell just now floated towards her.
After waiting for a moment on the rotating life ring, the miracle - [time] has been engraved on the life ring.
Emilia didn't look back, she just pursed her lips and stared blankly at the young man under the starry sky.
Shade felt a little embarrassed when she looked at her, so he took the initiative and said:
"When you go back, you can prepare to be promoted to the sixth ring, right? And you have been looking forward to obtaining the [Time] Spirit Rune before you reach adulthood, and now you have got your wish. Oh, I can't give you the adventure of the Time Key.
Too much experience. My time key exploration always brings up strange questions."
