Chapter 2576 Witch's Perfume
"Look at your expression now. What are you worried about? The Speaker said that she will only stay for one day. She is now in the northern part of the Old Continent with Megan Audrey, collecting the angel-level relic [The Redeemer's Lament]."
Jialina said with a smile, and briefly told Shade about the effect of the relic:
"It seems that they don't want to use the relic to remove the curse, and I think the Speaker's action on Wednesday will probably have no effect. Shade, what are you going to do?"
"What should I do? Of course I have to avoid your speaker on Wednesday. Even if I am in Vista City on Wednesday, I will definitely avoid her. I don't want to meet Miss Isabella right now."
"That's it"
The Duchess nodded, thinking that Shade knew the "future", so now was not the time for them to meet:
"I thought you were going to pretend and try to contact her first. Well, now that I've told you everything, Tifa, ask the maid to call the carriage. It's getting late, let's go back."
As he said this, he stood up from the sofa, but his eyes were always on Xia De.
The black-haired head maid who came over with the tea tray did not greet the other maids, but just winked at Shade, who then reached out and grabbed Karina:
"It's so dark outside, why don't you stay here tonight? What else did you say to Miss Winslet? Tell me everything later."
"Is that all you want to hear?"
She raised her eyebrows and asked, her smiling expression clearly wanting Xia De to say the words himself.
Xia De then met her request:
"Of course it's not just to listen to you talking all night long. I would also be lonely living in such a big house with only Mia and me."
The cat on the back of the sofa turned to look at him, and the red-haired witch smiled with satisfaction:
"Okay, then I'll keep you company tonight. After all, everyone says you're my lover, even though it should probably be the other way around. But anyway, it's my turn tonight."
She sat down again and hugged Xia De's neck, took a deep breath, and then suddenly asked:
"The smell of Flora's perfume. Have you hugged her today?"
"Ok?"
He did support her in the afternoon, but Xia De didn't think it was a hug.
"No need to explain, I understand. I only have one request, you can't take a shower tomorrow morning!"
"This is not okay!"
"Then you can only wash your hair. I will make you smell my perfume when you meet her! Don't object. This matter is non-negotiable!"
Although Xia De pointed out that if she really wanted to achieve her goal, she could just spray the perfume on him after waking up the next morning, but Jialina was still very enthusiastic that night, even a little too enthusiastic.
The Royal Knight bravely challenged the foreign knight alone again, and as expected, she was defeated again and "humiliated" according to the rules of her family. However, she was not disappointed. Instead, after everything was over, she hugged Shade and talked to him again in the bedroom at midnight.
The blush on her face had not yet faded, and her voice was soft:
"Flora probably has a crush on you."
Xia De didn't answer, but just touched her forehead. Jialina smiled foolishly and put her face on his chest to listen to his heartbeat:
"I'm not wrong. Even though everyone says Flora is an elegant artist, I know she is a simple person. She just likes beautiful things."
"Karina~"
"Don't rush to refute me. I just feel that she is too curious about you. Flora is an artist, and everyone says that this is what girls should be like. Now she looks no different from us."
She nuzzled Shad gently, which reminded him of little Mia, but the cat was now resting downstairs with Tifa.
"How about I call Tifa up here?"
The witch suddenly asked, startling Shade, who thought her mind-reading ability had finally broken through his powerful mental strength and thus saw that he was thinking of the maid:
"You must be joking. It's late. Go to bed. Tomorrow is Monday. Don't you have things to do?"
"But why did you react so strongly when I mentioned Tifa?"
She moved her legs, then smiled and hugged Xia De's neck and kissed him passionately:
"You are so kind, Shade. Everything I have will be yours sooner or later."
In order to prevent himself from not being able to take a shower early on Monday morning, Xia De woke up early the next morning, and as expected, he saw that Jialina, who didn't like to get up early, was still sleeping soundly.
Although the witch did ask him what time it was when he got up, she was fooled by Shade and went back to sleep hugging Shade's pillow.
So when she yawned and walked out of the bedroom at 7:30 in the morning, Xia De had already finished washing up and was sitting at the dining table reading the newspaper, waiting for her to have dinner together.
The impatient cat was already licking the goat's milk, and the busy maids brought the hot breakfast to the table.
"You took a shower."
The somewhat dissatisfied Duchess said, sitting on the left side of Shade:
"After dinner, let's go for morning exercise!"
The maids all tried to hold back their laughter, and Shade handed her the bread:
"Didn't you say last night that you had to arrive at the Yodel Palace before nine this morning? You'll have to wash and put on makeup later, so there won't be enough time."
“Not enough time and not enough practice.”
She was obviously not convinced. She ate breakfast in a hurry, then pulled Xia De back into the bedroom. After a moment's hesitation, she said to her apprentice:
"Tifa, come and help me."
The maid in charge of makeup tools delivered the perfume to the bedroom early. The specially formulated "witch's scent" showed an attractive purple-pink luster under the morning sun.
But soon the curtains were drawn again and the door was closed. The Duchess took the remaining two-thirds of the perfume bottle, opened the cap, and poured half of it on her head.
"What are you doing? This is choking."
"do not speak."
Then she handed the bottle to Tifa, and the black-haired maid said nothing as she poured the remaining perfume on herself.
"Since there is not enough time, let's make up for it."
The strange desire to win made Carina Cavendish do something very strange. She reached out to unbutton Shad's shirt with a pungent smell of perfume, but her hand was caught by Shad again:
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
Shade asked, staring into her golden eyes. Carina did not answer this question, but motioned Shade to look at the black-haired maid standing behind her with a blank expression and her hands clasped together:
"It's 7:50 now. Although I need to be at Yodel Palace before 9 o'clock, it's okay to be half an hour late, so you have to finish before 8:30 to give me time to wash and put on makeup. Don't tell Tifa that you have any other requests. We will satisfy you this morning."
"Are you sure?"
Xia De was suspicious again, and the witch snorted:
"I knew you wouldn't refuse. Shade, there are still forty minutes left. Are you sure you want to waste it talking?"
As she spoke, she waved her hand back, and the docile Tifa walked forward and stood side by side with her master, pursing her lips and lowering her head slightly, not looking at Shad.
Anyway, the perfume smells really choking.
(Iluna is praying.)
"Good morning, why are you so late?"
It was almost ten o'clock in the morning when Shad saw Miss Danister and Miss Winslet sitting opposite each other at a table on the first floor of the Accordion Hotel on a sunny morning.
There weren't many people on the first floor of the hotel at this time, but the enthusiastic bard was still playing the lute, telling the local story of "The Lumberjack and the Treasure" in Ximu Town. This place is worthy of being called the "Music Capital", and even the level of the bards singing in the taverns is much better than that in other cities.
Xia De smiled awkwardly and sat down. The two ladies chose to sit opposite each other by the wall. The seat opposite the wall was not convenient for people to sit because it was an aisle. So he had to sit next to the red-haired girl.
"Miss Danister, I brought you some clothes a few days ago. Then I thought that as a 'noble girl who came to the concert alone', you should also need a set of jewelry that suits your age."
He took out a jewelry box from his pocket and opened it to reveal a complete set of jewelry, including earrings, hair ornaments, rings, and bracelets. Of course, these were taken out from the "God's Gift Box" this morning.
The Duchess said:
"This style of jewelry is suitable for an immature girl like Ajelina."
The red-haired girl then took the box to her side and looked at the jewelry, while the witch, who was originally holding the teacup, looked at Shade suspiciously, then twitched her nose slightly a few times.
"Flora, if your admirers see you doing such an indecent act, your reputation will surely suffer."
The red-haired girl reminded him, and took out the ruby earrings from the box and examined them in her palm:
"Shad, are you bribing me?"
"of course not."
And Miss Winslet said after sniffing:
"Don't get me wrong, I just smelled a familiar scent. I didn't expect Karina to be so petty. This doesn't smell like the smell you get from being intimate or hugging. Did she pour half a bottle of perfume on you, Detective?"
She gave him a mocking expression.
Miss Danister asked Xiang Xiade:
"Why, you came so late today, because you were at home being intimate with your lover?"
“We don’t talk about it.”
Shad hurriedly tried to stop him, because he noticed that Miss Winslet, with her eyes wide open, seemed to want to ask Shad how far his relationship with the Duchess of the North had progressed.
"So, why are you here?"
He also asked, and Miss Danister closed the lid of the jewelry box:
"Didn't I tell you last week? I found a few townspeople who looked reliable in the past, and asked their descendants to go to the Accordion Inn to explain the matter a week after I disappeared.
The date is today, and I said just come in the morning, so we have been waiting here to see if anyone will actually come.”
