Chapter 3122: Year-end Festival Invitation
The method of using the note was very simple. Xia De casually stuffed it between two books on the bookshelf beside him, then suddenly rushed forward, and then with a stumble, he appeared under the arc-shaped starry sky with Xiaomia.
Behind him, Emilia and Miss Danister followed closely:
"I know you have the ability to go home directly. But if you want to go back through the second underground floor, you still have to follow this method on the ground. In addition, with my special approval, you can enter most areas of the second underground floor, but I don't recommend you to play adventures in the basement of the college library, especially the areas below the first underground floor."
She waved to the elf again and said:
"Emilia, your luggage has been sent directly to the dormitory. Go back and pack your things now. I think you must have a lot of things to deal with after being away from the academy for so long. Sister Sienod is still in the Vestal Forest, but she will be back soon after discussing the alliance with other clans and your coronation.
I will come back to see you tomorrow with the dean of your college. In addition, the church delegation visiting the college will arrive soon, and you will also need to show up then. Now I need to prepare more approval notes for Xia De, you should go and rest first. "
"Well, see you tomorrow, Miss Danister. See you next time, Shade."
Emilia said goodbye to the two of them, looked at Shade with her big emerald eyes again, and then left reluctantly.
When Emilia's back disappeared between the bookshelves, the sorceress folded her arms across her chest and examined Shade - an action she rarely did, then raised her left hand and snapped her fingers.
Silently, four walls rose around the open space in the center of the library, turning this place from an area with a wide view into a closed room - in fact, even without these walls, no one else could approach or even observe this area without Danister's permission.
"This place can be turned into a closed room? The walls are solid, that's amazing."
"I rarely raise the walls. After all, the entire library is my office."
Xia De noticed that the voice speaking to him seemed to become younger, so he turned around and saw that the person with her hands folded in front of her chest was indeed an 18-year-old red-haired girl.
The young girl blushed a little, and after exchanging glances with Xia De, she walked to her sofa and sat down.
"I don't know when we will meet next time, let's say goodbye."
As she spoke, she put her right leg on top of her left leg, and the hem of her skirt was slightly pulled up, revealing her feet. With a slight flick, the high-heeled shoe on her right foot almost flew off, but was caught by the girl's toes in the end.
Xia De had just heard these words ten minutes ago, and he was sure that if she was not eighteen years old, she would never make such a move.
After careful calculation, including last night, this morning, and now, she felt that she had indeed gone a little too far. But now she was eighteen years old, not the mature librarian, so it was no problem at all.
"Well, so, this is considered the number of times this month?"
Xia De did not refuse, but asked hesitantly. The red-haired girl immediately raised her head and objected:
"What are you talking about? It's still the Vista Woods holiday. Aren't you still not home?"
As he said this, he waved to Xia De, and Xia De really came over.
The two of them didn't say a word next. The red-haired girl sat on the sofa and looked up at him. Eighteen years old is an age of youth and beauty. Her rose-red eyes matched her delicate and fair face. In addition, she threw her right high-heeled shoe completely out and hit Xia De's leg. This really made her look very girlish.
"Do you need me to prepare some potion for you?"
The red-haired girl asked with a smile, and without waiting for Shade to answer, she pulled him towards her:
"Really? What are you hesitating about? Are you shy? Don't worry, I have the highest authority here."
After saying that, the two of them fell directly on the sofa. Soon after the sounds of laughter and kissing rang out, Xia De struggled and said:
"Flora wrote you a letter. I'm afraid I'll forget to tell you, so I've put it aside for now. Remember to open it and read it after I leave."
"Are you really going to mention someone else now? Ahem, Mr. Hamilton, I order you to pay attention now."
After a rustling sound, some clothes fell on the carpet between the coffee table and the sofa and on the coffee table:
"No matter how often we meet in the future, you are not allowed to forget me after today. Shade, don't be like the teacher and leave me alone."
"Meow~"
The cat jumped onto the coffee table and looked at them. It had encountered this kind of thing so many times recently that the cat had even become somewhat accustomed to it.
(Little Mia is running.)
Danister was worried about being suspected by other girls, so she didn't keep Shade for too long. When Shade hurriedly threw away the crystal shoes and rushed back with her coat and the dissatisfied cat, the sunset was still hanging on the edge of the horizon of the ice sheet.
The lazy red-haired girl continued to lie on the sofa, looking up at the slowly changing star map on the ceiling of the library, feeling that this was like a dream:
"I must have been crazy just now, being here with Shade"
Although he complained about himself in his heart, when he saw the faintly glowing silver moon mark on the outside of his white arm, he couldn't help but smile.
"In order to prevent you from running to strange places and disappearing again for clues about Ms. Helena Carter, I leave this 'Eternal Fire Seal' to you. Of course, if you have any objections, I can erase it at any time."
This is what Shade said when he gave her this mark, but the red-haired girl was confused at the time and did not give any answer. Now thinking of what happened at that time, she wanted to cover her face shyly:
"Go back and take a shower, then go to the academy's dinner."
She urged herself to get up before the last warmth from Xia De disappeared, to prevent herself from feeling lonely and empty like the starry sky above her head.
But at this moment, he suddenly remembered what Xia De had said, and let the envelope on the coffee table float over:
"What does Flora want to say? She even asked Xia De to deliver the letter."
She opened the envelope and then the letter. She only looked at it for two seconds before sitting up from the sofa, not caring that the blanket that Xia De had put on her before leaving had slipped to the floor.
His face turned from red to white, from white to blue, from blue to black, from black to red again, and finally turned into a roar:
"Flora!"
If the sound of the office was not completely isolated, people in the entire ground area of the library would probably be startled.
Xia De didn't know about this for the time being. After leaving the college library, he was in a good mood and went home to take a shower. Then he wrote a letter to Dr. Schneider and asked the maids to help deliver it. Then he returned to the woods with Mia.
He did not go to see Miss Orlanod immediately. After all, he did not want to take a second bath for the time being.
After passing through the woodland covered in snow, the Glorious Messenger has now been anchored back on Lake Yuren. After Shad boarded the ship, he found that nothing important happened in the woodland during the afternoon when Shad was away.
However, during dinner, Flora mentioned that the identities of the people rescued from the "Cursed Tree" had begun to be identified one by one, and her uncle Anthony Winslet had awakened and was mentally normal.
According to the regulations, the surviving time travelers would probably be released by the church only after strict inspection and determination that they posed no threat, but they would still be under house arrest for a long time afterwards.
But given the status of the Winslet family, it should not be a problem for Anthony Winslet to be placed under residential surveillance in Willendael City. In this way, he can still influence the Winslet family's choice of family heir.
Of course, the premise is that the church is really sure that there is no problem with him.
Apart from this little thing that no one except Flora and Shade paid attention to, the eight witches also discussed their plans to leave. Among them, Grandma Cassandra was determined to leave tomorrow, and Bella and Sylvia would return to Moon Bay and Willendel a few days later.
Carina and Vanessa plan to stay a little longer and will not return to Tobesk with Shad, Dorothy, and Luvia, but will wait until next week to return.
Megan has received a letter from Speaker Isabella, and she needs to go to the south of the Old World to support the containment of the unknowable relic. This kind of thing always requires the appearance of the great witch of "wisdom and knowledge", and the two sisters have many complaints about this.
Therefore, the [Witch Council] asked Flora and Xiwei to be responsible for the final work of the Vesta Forest incident, which would take about one or two weeks. Flora then returned to Willendel City to discuss the issue of a permanent base in the forest with Sylvia, while Xiwei continued to upgrade the ship with Miss Elither.
Although the separation was not in the next moment, once the plan was spoken, it seemed to be in the blink of an eye. Last night was a celebration party for everyone, but tonight's dinner brought up the topic of separation. Seeing that the girls were not in a very good mood, Xia De announced an important thing during dinner:
"Please listen to me."
He raised the wine glass beside him and stood up. All the eyes at the table turned to him:
"It's already mid-November, the year 1854 has come to an end, and the end-of-year festival is coming soon. I have already sent out some invitations."
He nodded to Xiwei and Flora, both of whom had agreed to the invitation:
"Things in the woodlands are over, and I think the material world will be stable for a while. Now I want to invite everyone to come to my place to celebrate the festival if they have time."
Carina was the first to speak:
"Some time ago we promised to help Shade find a way to expand No. 6 Saint Teresa's Square. Now we have some ideas. When the time comes, everyone will be able to stay. Or if you are interested, it would be great if you can celebrate the holiday together at my manor."
But not everyone accepted Xia De's invitation afterwards.
