Chapter 3135 Ajelina's Wisdom
After waking up in his bedroom on Saturday morning, looking at the familiar ceiling, Xia De felt that it was actually quite good to be at home like this. No matter how good other places were, this was his house after all, and apparently Mia thought so too.
He was in a good mood and took care of the fireplace. He made his own breakfast, which was rare this morning, which was warm milk and goat milk, fried eggs and bacon. When he went out to get the newspaper, he met his neighbor, Mr. Smith, who happened to be getting the newspaper. He hadn't seen Shad for a long time and thought that the young detective next door was busy investigating the case all autumn.
The men holding newspapers stood at the door and chatted for a while, then Mr. Smith turned around and told his servant to give Shad a jar of honey produced in the Kingdom of the Islands - Kelagli.
This was a small token of appreciation between neighbors, a small gift to maintain neighborhood relations. So Shade did not refuse, thinking that when the maids baked bread at home, they could give some to Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
The news reported in the newspaper was nothing new, and Shade only read the news about the border conflict. Along with the newspaper, there was also a letter from Dr. Schneider, who said that he had something to do this afternoon and had to postpone the meeting on Saturday to Sunday afternoon.
"Is the doctor working hard to decipher the book he got from Professor Uck Wood's office?"
After breakfast, Shad took Mia to Old John's Pawn Shop and Black Raven Library to shop, and then he went to Cattail Lane to visit Professor Manning, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. At noon, he politely declined the old professor's invitation to stay for lunch, and walked to Quill Pen Street not far away, wanting to see how Dorothy was doing.
"Did you just wake up?"
When Shad was greeted by Dorothy in her nightgown and entered the third floor of the apartment, he asked in surprise, it was already half past eleven in the morning.
"No, I'm still asleep. You woke me up. The doctor said there would be no meeting today. I had planned to sleep till night."
The girl with messy blond hair said weakly:
"Want to have lunch together? Please give me five more minutes. I'll sleep for a while and then change my clothes."
Then she leaned her head against Shad and fell asleep. Seeing this, Shad moved Dorothy back to the bedroom and prepared lunch for her.
When Dorothy turned the cat who didn't want to leave and wanted to eat into a toy and was about to leave on tiptoe, she closed her eyes and said:
"Shad, come to my place. This is the club where we always date. Ajelina is here too."
Although Resia returned to Tobesk City the day after the war due to busy affairs, she is now the one with the most free time. After all, the princess does not have to do everything by herself.
When Shad brought the cat to see her and Ajelina, the two princesses were talking about the evening in the club room:
"Shad, since you're not having a meeting today, our cousin Janet is having a wedding reception tonight. Do you want to come and join us?"
The so-called "cousin" was Janet Kindle, the daughter of Queen Diana's brother, who married the son of a local earl. The scale of this wedding banquet was completely incomparable to the wedding of Resia's sister Lakeview Manor that Shad attended last year. Although Shad wanted to accompany Resia and Ajelina, he had other plans:
"Excuse me, I was thinking of going to St. Byrons tonight to discuss a course paper with Miss Danister."
Although Leicia felt regretful, she did not ask Xia De to accompany her:
"Well, then Ajelina and I will deliver the congratulatory gift to our mother and leave. But I'm telling you, although you came back to Tobesk to rest for a while, you shouldn't stay at home with your cat all the time."
She led Ajelina and Shad to sit at the dining table, and then asked her maid to order the club's kitchen to serve the food.
Ajelina sat next to her sister obediently. She was originally thinking about how to talk to Shade about the staff before the end of the year, but she didn't expect Shade to take the initiative to mention it:
“Lecia, can I borrow your wisdom? If I want to give my [Staff of Yggdrasil] new abilities, can you imagine what functions it can have?”
Long-haired Luvia said that the staff could be given a new feature, and Shade had not forgotten this. During lunch, he informed Leicia of the current function of the staff. Leicia thought about it:
"I heard that Emilia's tree house was created by herself. Since the staff can be transformed into a big tree, can we make it grow into a tree house? This way, if you need to spend the night in the wild, you will at least have a place to shelter from the rain."
"It's a good idea. If the tree house is created by the staff, the tree house itself will definitely have some extraordinary power."
Shade agreed as he let the cat out, saying that if he chose this trait, it would be like carrying a house with him in the future.
Even Ajelina thought her sister's idea was good, but she had a "mission" after all, so she asked in a low voice:
“Can I offer an idea?”
"of course."
Xia De then looked at the little princess, and Ajelina said embarrassedly:
"I heard that Emilia's power as the Chosen One is incomplete because she needs to suppress the time scars of the forest. Although she can borrow power at any time, it is still different from the complete state. Since the World Tree sapling in the throne room cannot be moved, why not use other World Tree materials to temporarily help Emilia make up for the part of her missing power?"
Leicia frowned and said:
"Although I also want to make the Chosen One of Time stronger, I don't want Shade to lose that weapon."
Ajelina suddenly felt that she might really be a genius:
"Sister, what I mean is that since Shade said that the new feature must be related to trees, then trees not only have trunks, but also branches. The new feature can be: let the staff based on trees split into a brand new branch, which is an attached staff, and then give that attachment to Emilia."
Ajelina couldn't think of a way to get Shade to give her the staff directly, but as long as the main body and the branches were still connected, she believed that Emilia could also influence the trunk through the branches. If that didn't work, she would think of other ways.
Ajelina's thoughts became more and more coherent:
"Although the accessories that were split from the Staff of Yggdrasil are certainly not as good as the small sapling in the throne room, it is better to have it than not. The price of doing this is that Shade cannot gain any new power, but at least it helps Emilia replenish her strength."
After she finished speaking, she saw Leixia looking at her in surprise:
"Ajelina, did you just come up with this?"
Of course not. Since returning to Tobesk, the little princess has been thinking about how to complete this task day and night, and even wasted time flipping through the books. Originally, she only had a preliminary idea, and today after listening to Shade's talk about the "new features", she completed all the ideas.
"Yes, sister, I am also very smart!"
Ajelina replied with a smile. Although Leicia still believed that it would be better for Shade to let the staff have a beneficial effect on him rather than let the elf become more powerful, she never forced Shade to make a decision, so she just asked in the end:
"Shad, what do you think? A portable tree house, or helping Emilia become stronger?"
Shad didn't make a decision immediately. He still needed to ask the long-haired girl in his dream for her opinion.
I went home in the afternoon to prepare the final papers for many courses, which I could hand in directly at the meeting tomorrow afternoon. In the evening, I put down my pen and took Mia to the Prophet Association to visit Luvia.
The bad news is that Luvia is still very busy and will probably have to work overtime tonight; the good news is that because she needs to work overtime, she plans to stay at No. 6 St. Teresa's Square, which is very close to the association, tonight.
As for visiting St. Byron's Library after dinner, it was the first time that Shad went to the academy without an appointment. Danister had given him a set of eighth-grade robes in advance and also gave him access to the library, but he was still a little nervous about this "illegal intrusion":
"Wait a minute, I'm a school director with shares in the college, why should I be nervous?"
He originally wanted to take Mia with him, but the cat was tired of being led around by Shade today, so it hid on the cupboard where the cat food was kept and refused to follow him. Shade had to set out from the basement alone.
The process of passing through the [Space Maze] to the second underground floor of the library was smooth, and there was no trouble when he walked out of the hidden passage and came to the library. Then, using the note signed and sealed by Miss Danister, Shade successfully came to the ground part of the library.
Standing among the bookshelves and looking up at the star map twinkling with starlight above his head, Xia De then determined his position through the planetarium in the center of the curved dome, and walked towards the office of the librarian.
Without an invitation, even if he knew the direction, he would not be able to find the open space with the sofa and coffee table. However, the ring that the sorceress gave to Shade at the end of the year last year, which represented her identity, could be regarded as an invitation, so Shade quickly arrived at the familiar place.
Along the way, he also met some college students who were browsing books in the library, but no one paid attention to him. St. Byron's currently has a large number of students, and it is quite normal for students of different grades not to know each other.
As long as Xia De doesn't say it himself, no one will realize that he is from outside the school.
As expected, Miss Danister was not in her office. Shade sat down on the sofa by himself, but he was a little worried about what would happen if someone else came to see Miss Danister and saw him here.
So he stood up again soon after sitting down, thinking that even if someone came, he could explain that he was also looking for the librarian.
"It's strange to be standing here by myself. How about I leave a letter and arrange a meeting time. Should I go back now?"
He thought so again, but then thought that since he was here, he might as well wait a little longer. It was 6:53 on Saturday night, and according to what Shad knew about Danister, she should be back soon.
