Chapter 3954 Temporary Meeting
The crystal shoe landed on the carpet in the living room on the first floor. As Shad picked it up, he could already smell the aroma of dinner coming from the second floor and hear the girls talking.
"Ha, I knew there would be someone there!"
Xiaomia always seemed to be able to sense Shad precisely, and before Shad even reached the top of the stairs, it would have already scurried down the stairs.
When Shad carried Mia upstairs, he indeed saw Iluna and Luvia sitting on the sofa talking. Tifa and two maids who often appeared there were preparing dinner, but Shad didn't see Galina.
Iluna greeted Shad with a smile:
"Good evening, Shad. Do you mind if I mooch dinner here?"
Tifa just said that Galina will be at the Yodal Palace tonight with the King to hear a report on the battle situation from the front, and then she has to attend a meeting in Parliament. So she asked Tifa to come with the maids; she'll come later, after her meeting.
"I invited Iluna to come along. She's been very busy since she returned to Topsk recently, and we haven't had a meal together in a long time."
The girl with purple eyes smiled and gave Shad a hug:
"I was working overtime yesterday and didn't have time to check on you. So how have you been in Arcadia these past two days? Is the weather nice in that unfamiliar city?"
"I really have a lot to share with you guys. The weather there is great, and the people are very welcoming. I mean, the city is beautiful. I'm going to change my clothes, and we'll talk more when we eat."
Shad hesitated for a moment, then said to Tifa:
“I ran into Miss Vigo Astley in Arcadia. Tifa, why don’t you go back to the Yordle Palace now and tell Galina before she goes to the council meeting?”
But the head maid, wearing an apron, shook her head regretfully:
"The frontline battle report should have already begun, and no one is allowed to enter or leave that building at will. Miss plans to enter the council directly from that building after the report is over, so I can't pass on the message to her right now."
In fact, Shade could have gone elsewhere to inform other witches about Vigo. But the matter wasn't urgent, and his situation with Vigo couldn't be explained in a short time, so he wasn't in a hurry to find anyone else.
"Alright then, we'll talk to her when Galina gets back tonight."
"Is Miss Vigo Astley chaos, creation, or the moon?"
Iluna asked curiously, and Shad replied:
"Chaos, she's in poor health. She was given my [Star Dewdrop] as a first aid before. After meeting her this time, I discovered that directly consuming my blood can temporarily restore her health."
"Drinking blood? What's the principle behind that?"
While Iluna wasn't keen on having Shad share his blood so easily, she was equally interested in the matter. She didn't think much of it, while Luvia, standing nearby, raised an eyebrow, then smiled with satisfaction.
"So you've already tasted your blood? It seems that the Great Witch of Chaos is getting along quite well with you. Go change your clothes, I can't wait to hear your story."
Dinner at No. 6 St. Teresa's Square was very pleasant. Shad shared everything that had happened in the past two days with Luvia and Iluna, including his adventure at the Blood Factory, his meeting and gift to Vigo, and the Blood Seed Healing this afternoon, but not including the fact that the Great Witch of Chaos had confessed her feelings to him.
Even so, whether it was Luvia, Iluna, or the maids, they could all tell that Vigo Astley's attitude towards Shad was quite unusual.
While dinner was in progress, Galina, who was in a bad mood because she hadn't eaten dinner, entered the council chamber promptly at 6:50.
Although she arrived ten minutes early, most of the other witches had already arrived.
Galina greeted her colleagues familiarly, while Viggo, in a good mood that evening, prepared tea and snacks for everyone, which were distributed by Matilda, who had come with Bella. Since Sevi's advancement to the thirteenth rank, the council had undergone significant changes; bringing in ordinary goods from the outside world was now much easier than before.
"Wei Ge, you look great today. What made you think of bringing some snacks?"
When Galina sat down, she exchanged a few words with Viggo; the two were seated very close together. Because of the snacks, she had developed a somewhat favorable impression of this usually aloof colleague.
“I recently came across some really nice afternoon tea snacks. Although I ate them myself, I’m bringing other kinds of snacks for everyone to try.”
Standing behind her seat, Vivi smiled and then coughed lightly a few times. Megan, who had just come out from the door behind her seat, looked at her in surprise. Megan could tell that the cough was half-serious and half-false.
"You look great lately, Vige."
She said the same thing, because she had recently treated this chaotic great witch herself, so she knew better than Galina how incredible it was.
"What happened? How did she recover so quickly?"
As the great witch of knowledge and wisdom sat down, she pondered with suspicion, when the voice of her sister echoed in her mind:
"One in ten chance, a miracle has truly happened; two in ten chance, Her Excellency the Speaker has indeed found a more effective treatment; three in ten chance, it's a final burst of energy before death; four in ten chance, she has found the [Jade Record] and discovered a way to suppress the illness from it; five in ten chance, something unknown has happened."
Megan then asked:
"So what about the remaining 85 points?"
Audrey replied:
"She ran into Shad. Considering that Shad has been resting for a month and a half after the Battle of Destiny, and given his personality, he will definitely be doing something recently, so the possibility that she ran into Shad is actually higher than 85%."
Megan's expression remained unchanged as she controlled her body, because this was within her expectations:
"I just don't know what method Xia De used."
The meetings of the Witch Council are actually quite similar to the group meetings that Shad attends every Saturday. The general process is that Adele first raises the most important topic, then each of the Great Witches reports on matters that need to be known or discussed by others in the council, and finally the thirteen Great Witches discuss their own trivial matters.
The main topic of discussion at tonight's impromptu meeting was still related to the "Circular Hall" on Fatummst Island. Claire distributed the first draft of the management rules for the "Circular Hall" and the draft rules for the use of the "Ring of Fate" to everyone.
"If there are no problems, I will sign these agreements on behalf of Parliament this weekend."
The discussion, which lasted for over an hour, was entirely focused on these two drafts. Although the Witch Council had previously offered numerous suggestions for revision, the thirteen great witches still had their own ideas when it came to finalizing the drafts.
Fortunately, around 8 o'clock, everyone reached a consensus. Adele had her apprentice behind her tidy up the meeting minutes and informed Claire that she would attend the ceremony with her over the weekend.
"Your Excellency the Summoner is clearly the most important administrator of the 'Circle Hall,' yet you've pushed everything onto Claire. Do you really trust Claire that much?"
Adele deliberately said this at the end, and the great witch of the sun with platinum blonde hair couldn't help but smile, then quickly explained:
"Your Excellency the Summoner, you've probably been busy with more important matters lately."
The witches didn't really want to attend this impromptu plenary meeting, so after the most important topic was discussed, no one else brought up anything else.
Adele, seeing this, intended to end the meeting with just a few words, but unexpectedly, Viggo coughed and then spoke up:
"Colleagues, I have something I'd like to say to you about my health."
Seeing that she had taken the initiative to "stir up trouble," Adele gestured for her to continue. She was making trouble for herself, and Adele would not help her.
So, completely unaware of the current state of affairs in the council, Vige spoke under the watchful eyes of many golden eyes:
"I was in really bad health recently, and I am very grateful to my colleagues for their hard work in finding a treatment plan. The Star Dewdrop provided by the council pulled me back from the brink of death twice."
However, as you can see, my health is much better than it was a while ago. From now on, there's no need to trouble the Speaker and Audrey to visit me in Arcadia City so often. I think that given my current condition, I won't have any more problems this spring.”
The remaining twelve faces displayed a variety of expressions. Adele remained silent, her face expressionless, waiting to see what would happen next. Megan and Audrey exchanged thoughts rapidly in their minds, but they also remained silent.
It was Granny Cassandra who spoke first; she was the oldest member of the council and had the best relationship with everyone.
"Wei Ge, you look much better today than before. If you can keep this up, that would be a great thing."
"But what kind of treatment have you found? Didn't His Excellency the Speaker say that your condition would only gradually recover after the global-level disruption of the elements stabilized?"
Galina also said:
"Yes, His Excellency the Speaker even said that I could visit you later, arrange a ceremony in your bedroom, and create a closed space that isolates you from the flow of internal and external elements, so that you could stay there for stabilization treatment. Now it seems that this is no longer necessary, is it?"
Wei Ge cautiously observed everyone's expressions, waiting to find the great witch who had arrived even earlier than her:
"Thank you all for your kindness, but for now, no other means are needed. Actually, I met a lady in Arcadia City who possesses a unique power of flesh and blood creation. She is a traveling writer who came from afar to visit the City of Scholars. After we met due to some misunderstandings, she not only helped me suppress my illness but also provided ancient healing methods and used even more miraculous powers to heal my followers."
