Chapter 2941 Intermission
The night wind from the real world woke the people on the deck from their dreams. After returning from the deep black waters, even the stars in the night sky seemed to be shining brightly.
So most people flew off the deck to help in the forest or above the city. The battle tonight was not over yet. Only Mr. Bill Camora, the giant beast hunter from the Church of Nature, represented the Church of Five Gods, and Professor Gost, the necromancer from the Zalas Academy of Literature, represented the three major academies. They expressed their gratitude to the "God Caller" before leaving in a hurry. Iluna also followed them and said goodbye to everyone.
After sending off the last ring sorcerer who did not belong to the ship, the "Glorious Messenger" hid itself again, planning to take a trip to the forest before returning to Lake Yuren.
The restoration of the order of time and space also restored the portal connecting the ship to the city to normal. While Grandma Cassandra was checking the condition of the round-faced owl and the exhausted Shad was looking for the "Angel Elixir" to recover, Xiwei sent her niece Miss Hayley Aurora to deliver a message to the people on the ship:
"Candidate Yuri Aston was defeated. Although he did not die, he was found an opportunity by the 13th Ring's 'Watchmaker' and lost in a one-on-one battle.
"The Watchmaker" opened a space-time rift above the city ten minutes ago and released some strange things from it. Now those monsters are fighting with the church forces above the city, and the ring magicians of the [Tree Hole Association] have covered her escape."
"The church couldn't keep her there either? Didn't the church leave people in the city to defend it?"
"The watchmaker and the ring magicians of the [Tree Hole Association] all have strong time powers. If she wants to leave, no one can stop her."
This is bad news. What happened tonight was an exchange, exchanging the life of the dragon beast for the candidate of the church.
"Where's the Paladin?"
Bella frowned and asked. The witch apprentice who had the same brown hair as Xiwei shook her head:
"He disappeared. Before he disappeared, he left a message to Mr. Hamilton: The story at the beginning of the era is not important. Everything is just an extension of the chaos at the end of the previous era."
"This is the rule of the Time War. Since he has failed, the helpers he found will also disappear."
The Elf-girl explained, but Dorothy raised a question:
"But the last time you and Shade defeated the watchmaker who had just entered the thirteenth ring, if you calculate the time, the halfling killer in the city battlefield did not disappear immediately."
"So someone is helping her, and has been helping her for a long time."
The monsters released from the time-space rifts were quickly wiped out with the help of the high-level warlocks in the forest, and the small disturbances in the city were quelled. However, although the dragon beasts were dealt with, the return of the [Tree Hole Association] and the 13th-level "Watchmaker" brought more problems.
Losing the time war, and even returning without having to fight a resurrection match that didn't even exist, in Xia De's opinion, could only be attributed to a higher authority. Whether that higher authority came from the tree or the power of the first candidate was actually not important to Xia De.
After all, he already knew who the first candidate was.
The branch wrapped in the breeze that Jindel handed to Shad, like the branch burning with sparks that fell after the demon died, represented part of the "earth, wind, water and fire" used to hide the ancient one.
As for the heart, Xia De regarded it as a gift, but he didn't want to deal with these things tonight.
From the time he set out for Ash River Valley this morning to complete the last key until now, he has done too many things this Wednesday. After confirming that Flora was fine and was just temporarily asleep, he just wanted to rest. He didn't even have the energy to experiment with the results of using the "treasure" with his hometown's real name, let alone deal with Jindel's body. He originally planned to use [Puppetry] to control the body to perform some activities if the plan didn't go well.

After the knock on the door, the beautiful duchess who was talking to Tifa saw Shade appear at her door. So the maid took the documents on the table and left the room. Carina, who was wearing a nightgown, asked curiously:
"Shad, I thought you had gone to rest. Are you exhausted tonight?"
"Didn't I promise you last night that I would come to see you today?"
Shade said, pointing to the rose on the bedside. The Duchess was a little happy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face:
"You're so tired, we don't need another night. Go back and rest, or Leicia will definitely complain to me if she finds out."
She said this, and she really thought so in her heart:
"I don't want to be seen as that kind of woman. Go to your room with your cat and rest. You will have a lot of things to deal with tomorrow. I will come to see you tomorrow night. I have prepared a very beautiful pajamas."
Then she walked to the door and kissed Shad on the side of his face. Shad smiled and kissed her too. When Shad's figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor, Dorothy came out from the other side of the corridor.
Although even Shade couldn't tell Dorothy and Leicia apart by sight alone, the Duchess could tell who they were at a glance:
"Lecia, it's so late, aren't you asleep yet?"
The smiling blonde shook her head:
"There is something I want to tell you. Today, my father called a meeting with the Chancellor of the Exchequer and even asked the retired former Treasury Secretary Sir Smith for advice.
Father plans to issue war bonds at the end of this year. This has been confirmed, but the specific amount and number of issues have not yet been planned. However, the dukes of Tobesk are very interested in buying the first issue of bonds. I think you should know about this as soon as possible. I thought you would let Shade stay just now. "
The Duchess leaned against the door frame with her arms folded across her chest, looking at her niece with her golden eyes:
"If it were you, would you let Shade stay?"
"of course not."
"Then why do you think I'm inferior to you?"
Leicia seemed to be smiling happily:
"Where does this unreasonable desire to compare with others come from? Forget it, no more jokes. It seems that my father has already planned the time for the war, but I don't know who will fire the first shot this time."
Her expression became a little more serious:
"When the matter in Vestal Forest is over and you return to Tobesk, be prepared to face these troubles. Once the war begins, it will definitely not be completely under control, and many problems will arise at that time."
"I am just a member of the royal family, not the heir to the royal family. I don't want to be involved in these matters now."
Carina said, looking towards the direction of Shade's room again:
"If Shade hadn't appeared, I might have considered the future of our Cavendish family, but now that I have Shade, I don't care much about the politics of the kingdom. After all, I don't want to be like Margaret of Anjou now, who is in the same city but can't be with Shade."
"As long as your last name is Cavendish instead of Hamilton, our hair color and bloodline have determined that no one can escape."
Leicia saw it very clearly:
"My dear aunt, even if you say so, you will definitely not ignore this matter in the end, right?"
Jialina sighed softly. She rarely did this.
"Why don't we convince Shad to become king? After unifying the North and the South, as long as he marries you and Margaret at the same time, he can claim the throne. After that, he only needs to get the church's approval. The opinions of the people are actually very easy to manipulate."
Leicia still smiled happily:
"It sounds great. This way, the long-cherished wish of unifying the Old World can be easily realized. But doesn't our Knight hate such troublesome things the most?"
They all ignored the scattered small principalities, but they were indeed not very important.
After a peaceful night's sleep, when he opened his eyes again, it was already Thursday. Shade got up on time at 6:30, and when he brushed his teeth and washed up, he thought of Emilia who had not returned yet. Then when he saw the girls at the dining table, he thought of the bottle of pink perfume that was now almost used up.
It seemed that ever since the incident at Love Lake, Shade often felt that the perfume was not enough. He was not sure whether this was another "conspiracy" of the mermaid.
Last night's battle seemed like a dream. When Shade heard Miss Bell's report on the aftermath of last night's battle during breakfast, he still felt a sense of unreality. The dragon beast was so "easily" defeated, and the "Sky Blade" that was originally planned to be discussed in detail also hurriedly left the stage without anyone expecting it.
Xiwei and Sylvia both regretted that they did not stay on the boat last night and therefore did not see the final scene. Luvia was more worried about what happened to the owl who still did not wake up this morning.
"She's breaking free of her own limitations, and that's a good thing."
Grandma Cassandra said happily that in her opinion it is a good thing that each generation of young people is better than the previous one.
As for Schade, he believes that the return of the "Watchmaker" is not an entirely bad thing:
“The ancient being hidden in the woods always needs a spokesperson to do things. It’s either a human or a monster. If it’s not a monster, it could be something more bizarre. Now it’s the enemy we’re familiar with who has returned. At least this isn’t the worst scenario.”
He had already assumed that the "Watchmaker" had obtained the second qualification from the ancient one. After all, "authority" was something that only a small number of people could give.
Now that the dragon beast is dead, the only enemies standing in the way are the two representing "Earth" and "Water". The latter is still unknown, but the former has been confirmed to be the "guardian" of the paradox bugs.
However, everyone needed to rest after last night's battle, and the church also needed to re-examine their personnel arrangements and plans in the Vista Forest area. In addition, the investigation of the Bennet family had not yet produced any concrete results, so even Shade would not say that he would attack the "Watchers" today.
PS: Kidney stones are a minor illness, but the pain is really excruciating. I experienced an ambulance for the first time last night at midnight.
