Chapter 2828: Autumn Cat Washing and Illegitimate Child
As for Luvia, she thought about it carefully, took out her divination cards and randomly drew two cards, then threw the card symbolizing "Earth" in front of Shade:
"That 'caretaker' may be the owner of one of the five chairs you saw. If so, is it really earth, wind, water, or fire?"
"You can predict this now? Shade said that the owners of those chairs have accepted the power of the remains of the World Tree."
Vanessa was shocked. Shad had guessed this in the afternoon at the Accordion Hotel:
"I also guessed that the 'Watcher' corresponds to the earth. But I didn't expect that it was not the Paradox Bug King we discussed at the beginning, but just a 'Watcher'? And the opponent is not the biggest enemy this time, but just an elite enemy."
"What do you mean by just?"
The beautiful purple eyes glanced at him:
"I know what you mean. It's just a paradox worm. Its identity and status cannot be compared with the ancient evil spirit demon that has woven a century-long conspiracy. But according to the information provided by the [Forest Hermit Group] you described, is it possible that the 'watcher' has been the same worm from ancient times to the present?
Even if it is not a bug that has survived from the First or Second Age, it is responsible for guarding its own kind, so it must be the most powerful one among all the bugs, so it is not a problem for you to call it the 'Paradox Bug King'. "
As the fire swayed in the fireplace, she pointed out another point to Shad:
"Doesn't the magic Emilia taught you completely restrain paradox bugs? The bugs you encountered today broke your magic just by ramming them. This should be very telling."
"Things really happen one after another. The demon issue has just been resolved. I just wanted to find some ore for myself, and then I encountered this incident."
Seeing Shad holding the cat and complaining, they all laughed, and Vanessa said:
"Xiwei sent a message asking us to set out on Sunday morning. When we all arrive at Vista Forest next week, we can make a plan to lure it out of the underground. Although our attacks cannot work on that kind of bug, we are still able to help."
After saying this, she thought of another thing:
"Siris will stay in Tobesk temporarily this time. The opera troupe has to keep someone behind. Sometimes I feel that social work in a big city is more troublesome than performing. But she will finish the important things as soon as possible and will arrive in Vista Forest about a week later than us."
There was nothing to do tonight, so the three of them chatted in the study for a while. Xia De read for another half an hour, and then they all prepared to rest.
When Vanessa finished washing up and came to the bedroom, she found that only Shad, who was wearing pajamas, was picking and choosing winter clothes in the bedroom cloakroom, while Mia and Luvia were not there.
"You look handsome in any clothes."
She hugged Shade from behind, and Shade hung up the fur-collared coat he had just taken out. This coat should have been prepared by Leicia for him. The stranger couldn't remember when he last bought clothes:
"Thank you for the compliment. I was just thinking about winter outfits. By the way, Vanessa, do you remember that when we first met, it was snowing at the beginning of this year, and it was still winter then. In the blink of an eye, a year has passed."
He turned around and looked at the blonde lady, and kissed her gently on the side of her face. Vanessa's face immediately turned red, and then she gently hit Shade's chest:
"Luvia hasn't come yet. Wait a minute. I don't want Luvia to say that I'm impatient."
Shad explained:
"Luvia took Mia to live on the side. She said her special physical condition was coming, and she didn't want to spoil the fun."
"That's it"
Hearing this, the witch's face obviously darkened. Witches don't have that kind of physiological phenomenon, which is both a manifestation of "perfection" and a manifestation of their inability to reproduce the next generation.
Ordinary girls like Luvia, Dorothy, and Leicia would more or less avoid the Shadow on certain days of the month, but Carina had never considered such a thing before.
Although Vanessa was not as concerned about such things as Carina because of the existence of her niece, she was still a little sad when she heard Shad mention this matter.
But she soon lost this mood. This afternoon was just an appetizer, and the evening activities were the main course. Shade was always very enthusiastic towards every girl, and when only one girl accepted his enthusiasm, even if Vanessa was a genuine thirteenth-level witch, she could not resist at all.
However, she was very satisfied with this, but she was worried that when Carina's maids came to clean the bedroom, they would gossip when they saw the sheets thrown in the corner.
In the middle of the night, when the sleeping blonde witch buried her head in Shade's chest and fell asleep, "she" in Shade's ear suddenly said to him:
[If you haven't washed the cat this week, you asked me to remind you again on the weekend. It's Saturday now.]
Xia De, whose consciousness was already hazy, nodded:
"I see. The doctor is in Vista Grove right now. Tomorrow, Saturday, there's nothing to do except for the night class. So let's wash the cat."
"Meow~"
Mia, who was sitting next to Luvia's pillow, curled up into a cat ball and meowed, probably because she had dreamed about something terrible.
Shad kept his word and said he would wash the cat on Saturday. After breakfast and sending Luvia and Vanessa away early in the morning, he caught the cat, which had been wary of him since morning, and took it into the bathroom.
"Don't pretend to be afraid of water. I know you can swim! You can even dive!"
He said to the struggling cat while pouring hot water into the cat's special "bathtub". The "she" beside him smiled and asked:
[Perhaps you should realize that you discovered that it can swim because it saved you. So is it repaying kindness with enmity now?]
But Xia De doesn't care about this. Winter is coming soon. Giving the cat a bath in winter may cause the cat to catch a cold, so he must bathe the cat before the first snow falls.
The cat seemed to be struggling, but when Shade really put it in the basin and started to pour hot water, it squatted in the basin with a pitiful look. The cat had learned a lot from living with Shade for a year and a half. For example, if it made this expression during a bath, it would definitely get a big meal as compensation afterwards.
Because of washing the cat, Shade arrived at the Accordion Hotel a little late that day. He ran into Flora in the corridor on the third floor, which was very rare. At this time, the witch was directing her followers to set up anti-reconnaissance rituals for all the rooms with open doors on the entire floor. When she saw Shade coming up, she said happily:
"Although it's a bit troublesome, Mr. Bennett still agreed to rent this floor to me temporarily."
"What excuse did you use to convince him? Normally, even if late autumn is the off-season for tourism in Vista City, you have no reasonable reason to rent an entire floor, right?"
"I said I want to concentrate on composing the performance music for this year's year-end festival, so I need a quiet environment. And I have recently recruited a lot of assistants, and I hope they can live here too."
Shad thought there was nothing to do today, so he even brought Mia with him. But when Flora took him back to Miss Danister's room, Miss Bell told Shad a big news:
"There is news about the royal illegitimate child that Prince William of Anjou is looking for."
"Really found it?"
"It's not that we found it, we just have news. When the church searched Director Kant's office, they found a lot of intelligence he had collected in his office, including some that was suspected to be related to the illegitimate child.
It was Princess Margaret who brought the news that Prince William of Anjou had sent a letter to Willendel, saying that he would be able to confirm the other party's identity within a week."
Miss Bell said this, and the red-haired girl holding the teacup smiled and added:
"William of Anjou first became close to that dead disciple York Bronte, and then had contact with Director Kant. Although the church did not say anything about this, the king of Willendel will definitely receive the church's letter.
This prince probably wants to make some achievements as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if he is not guilty of contacting these dangerous people, the fact that he did not investigate Director Kant's treason is enough for him to be punished by the king."
Because of the detailed information sent by Margaret, Shad also obtained the top-secret information about the royal illegitimate child.
Intelligence said that the illegitimate child was indeed a male, about 22 years old. The woman who had a secret meeting with the king at the masked ball had passed away, as shown in the previous investigation, and her child was still living in Vista City after changing his name.
"If the illegitimate child was a girl, wouldn't it be like the fairy tale about the glass slipper? Even though she wasn't favored by the prince, she had lived an ordinary life for more than 20 years and suddenly became a princess. This is still very dramatic."
The artist lady commented leisurely while holding her teacup.
Because Margaret didn't ask Shade to help investigate, Shade didn't want to get involved in this troublesome matter. He thought that this matter would not entangle him, and he would probably hear about the follow-up of this matter again in the afternoon after a period of time, and then sigh that Margaret had gained another brother.
But in fact, that afternoon, the follow-up of this matter came to him.
It was one o'clock in the afternoon and the people in the hotel had just finished lunch. Shad was teasing the clean little Mia while talking to the red-haired girl on the sofa about his time travel - after two days, Miss Danister's anger had finally subsided.
