Chapter 2779: Mother Qisala
"I mean, didn't you learn anything from rowing into death with me just now?"
Xia De asked with a smile. Flora knew at a glance that he must have asked this on purpose:
"Experience? I have some experience."
When she mentioned this topic, she became a little dejected again. She put her hands on the boat and looked at the fog around her unconsciously:
"Looking at Sister Defulin's appearance, it wouldn't be surprising if she had already reached the thirteenth level the next time we see her. But I don't have that kind of talent. Even if I wasn't cursed, the eleventh level would already be my limit. I can feel it myself."
She did not shy away from discussing the issue:
"Just now I did feel the possibility of a breakthrough, I mean from level 11 to level 12, but this is obviously too far away. Not to mention Vanessa who is already level 13..."
Xia De noticed that she clearly curled her lips, which meant she was not convinced:
“I can’t even compare to Megan Audrey, Carina, Xiwei, and Bella who are all at the twelfth level, let alone those ancient demigod and demon queens you know.
So, I am even a little envious of Emilia, who can go to ancient times to study, which is obviously very helpful for improving her own strength. But I can only continue to be stuck at the eleventh level. If I am lucky, I may be able to barely reach the twelfth level before Charlotte takes over my seat. "
Xia De confirmed that the route guided by the golden line was correct and smiled at her:
"Don't say such discouraging words. When I met Jialina, she also said that the eleventh level was her limit. Hasn't she broken through now?"
"So what you're saying is that witches have to be intimate with you in order to break through their limits?"
After asking this question, she felt that this way of asking questions seemed to blame Xia De, so she explained:
"Do you have a way to help us break through our limits?"
"Of course I haven't, although it is true that many people's breakthroughs are related to me. I am always exposed to various magical things, and maybe some things can make you a breakthrough. For example, today, maybe the opportunity will be tomorrow."
"You really know how to talk."
Flora sighed. Although the shadow of the forest had already appeared in the mist, it would obviously take some time to return to reality. She stood up on the boat and walked towards Shade:
"I'm tired of sitting. I want to try now to see if I really need to be intimate with you to break through my limit."
For a moment, the tone of her voice reminded Shade of Leisia who was in Tobesk City at that time:
"I'm steering the boat."
"Young knight, don't think I can't see that returning home is much easier than actively opening a route. Come on, don't dodge, kiss me again. I can do what Carina and the others can do. Kissing is indeed very interesting."
That evening, when the owl flew into the third-floor window of the Accordion Hotel with the silver cat in its grasp, it was already late. The two cats jumped down from the windowsill together and transformed into human form. The red-haired girl put down her book, glanced at Shade and reminded him:
"Shad, the lipstick marks on your face haven't been wiped off yet."
"Don't try to fool me. I've been fooled once and I won't be fooled again."
Although he said this, Shade still wiped his face with his hand. Flora, who was standing by, handed the coat to her apprentice and sat down on the sofa, pouting and asking:
"Dannister, what do you mean?"
"It's just weird. You clearly put on lipstick before you left, but when you came back, your lipstick was gone."
The red-haired girl replied with a smile. In fact, she knew that she had some objections to this. After all, she asked Shad and Flora to work together to investigate the devil, not to make Shad's emotional life more complicated:
"So how did the two busy men get today? Nothing major happened in the city, but is there any news outside the city?"
There was indeed news outside the city. In addition to the "ghost of resentment" sealed by the relics in Gregory Village, the two people who said goodbye to the nun went to the warehouse of the herbal medicine company to investigate, and then they really found the boxes that were moved from the ruins of the deserted village:
"Those boxes had been placed in the deserted village for a long time, and were tainted with the subtle burnt smell of the village. Inside the boxes were some antiques and artworks, which were the same as those we found in Hoy Manor. They were all things that traveled through time three hundred years ago."
Xia De did not sit down, but closed the window and leaned against it:
“Flora communicated with a corpse buried under the warehouse and learned that those antiques were finally taken away by Director Kant.
Therefore, the correct sequence is: the devil or someone related to the devil obtained the antique three hundred years ago and placed it in that deserted village which was almost absolutely safe. Then the people from the herbal company moved the antique away, and finally the antique fell into the hands of Director Kant. "
"So it's normal that Director Kant doesn't have a time curse, because it's not the 'treasure' of the Hoy family that he obtained by traveling through time."
Flora nodded and leaned comfortably on the back of the sofa:
"If the source of the wealth that Director Kant used to bribe the nobles of Willendel was really the antiques obtained through trading with the devil, then the real intention of the devil is terrible. It influenced the nobles of the capital through Director Kant. If it had not been discovered this time, I even believe that its ultimate goal is to influence this country.
After all, letting the flames of war burn the entire continent is more in line with their style than burning down a manor."
"I actually doubt that if we continue to investigate, we will find that the demon is actually already inciting the upcoming war. Of course, I also admit that even without its instigation, the war will inevitably come."
Since the demon had been lurking so close to the capital for so long, Shade didn't believe that the current situation had nothing to do with it. If he thought about it this way, it seemed that things had become very scary:
"My friend said that this demon can only split itself into four parts at most. Now that two parts have been confirmed, there is only half left.
I have already made an agreement with Flora to contact Miss Sylvia tonight and ask her to use Margaret's power to investigate whether there are any abnormalities among the Willendel nobles who have a close relationship with Director Kant. "
After all, no one had ever said that the demon's clone could only stay in Vista Forest:
"As for the remaining local investigation clues, there are not many. Our current focus is still on Emilia's matter and the Battle of the Chosen."
"The academy has notified me that a passage will be opened in about half an hour, and I will be asked to return to the academy library to talk to Emilia again. The academy is also worried about this girl. Xia De, do you want to go with me?"
Shad nodded.
Shad had no idea what means St. Byrons used to open the space gate. He just held Miss Danister's hand and jumped into the bathtub in her room. After falling for a moment, his feet landed steadily on the familiar floor of the college library.
The library was extremely quiet. The huge planetarium was silently rotating slowly on the ceiling that looked like the starry sky. Golden candlesticks were floating above the gaps between the bookshelves. At this moment, it was Miss Danister's "office area" in the center of the library. In the distance, the footsteps of students walking between the bookshelves could be heard.
Seeing that they had arrived safely, the lady who had used magic to make herself look back to her normal age let go of Shade's hand and greeted the old elf who was waiting on the sofa:
"Madame Qisala, why are you here?"
The old elf was wearing a green old-fashioned dress, and Emilia, who was wearing the school uniform, stood beside her uncomfortably. Even without the "echoes of the past", Shade could tell that before they appeared, Emilia was being scolded by her elders.
But Emilia seemed to be in good spirits, and she even winked at Shade when they made eye contact.
The old elf lady with wrinkles on her face and ears even pointier than Emilia's also stood up with her cane and looked at the two people who had just appeared with a smile on her face:
"Good evening, Danister.
For such a big event, of course I have to accompany little Emilia. This child has been a worry since she was a child. I remember when her parents brought her to visit the library in sixth grade, her crying accidentally triggered the library's sound alarm, and the library almost closed early that day. That was more than 50 years ago. "
"Yes, my teacher was younger than I am now."
Miss Danister also said with a smile, while Emilia on the side lowered her head, as if she wanted to turn into an ant and disappear here immediately.
Although it was the first time that Shade had met her, he knew this "Grandma Qisara". Emilia had mentioned her before. She was the oldest elf in the Moon Creek Clan. Although she looked like she would fall down if the wind blew, she was a genuine twelfth-ring elf.
Years accumulate knowledge, time resonates and inspires, so if a fight really comes, the great witches that Xia De knows who have just entered the twelfth level may not be able to beat her.
The elves of the Moon Creek Clan have a weaker sense of family than humans, and they usually regard the clan as a large group. Therefore, this seemingly kind "Granny Kisara" can be regarded as Emilia's most important and oldest elder.
Miss Danister didn't expect to meet this old man who didn't visit often. She was about to introduce Shade to her, but unexpectedly the old elf smiled and said:
"This young gentleman, is that you?"
"Sorry, what?"
Shade asked politely, and Emilia raised her head. She wanted to introduce Shade and the old elf to each other, but the old elf smiled and said:
"What a young, vibrant sapling, with a verdant glow and a soul that seems to be able to support this world. I haven't seen it for many, many years. The last time I saw it was when I was young, during a sacrifice."
