Chapter 2497: Xia De's Miracle - Night Seal
Of course, Shade was not the only one who opened his eyes because of the footsteps. Miss Xivi Aurora was still curled up on Shade's chest, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and she looked at the door with sleepy eyes:
"Bella, good morning. How was your last night? I had a great time. Oh, you're not blaming us for not calling you, are you?"
"Xiwei, you actually..."
The twelfth-rank witch embraced Xia De's neck with a lazy smile, slid upwards like a white and greasy snake, and kissed Xia De's forehead:
"Bella, please allow me to teach you witches a rule: when everyone is facing a plate of afternoon tea snacks, if you don't reach out to take it in time but only care about being reserved, in the end, all you will be left with is an empty plate."
"Meow~"
The cat peeked inside the door; it wanted to have breakfast with Shad.
Shade was very glad that at least at the breakfast table that day, the witches tacitly did not talk about what happened last night, but congratulated Miss Belindel on her upcoming promotion to the twelfth level.
This allowed Shad to successfully preserve his image in the hearts of Miss Feliana and Fiona, but while eating breakfast he discovered that the girls would look at him with strange eyes from time to time.
Later, it was the bright-looking blonde writer sitting next to him who reminded him;
"The maids are all talking about you bringing two witch apprentices into the room. This is the most popular topic in the manor and on the ship right now."
After all, they didn't dare to talk about the big witches casually.
"Ok?"
Xia De lowered his voice and asked:
"Wait, everyone knows that?"
"Everyone does know about it except Emilia and Ajelina. But I think Emilia and the others will hear about it soon. The elves and princesses are very popular, and the maids are willing to share the news with them."
Dorothy laughed happily.
Fortunately, no one discussed the matter at the breakfast table. Shad guessed that Miss Feliana and Fiona must have heard the news, but they didn't react.
The only news during breakfast was that Iluna had someone deliver a letter saying that Miss Danister would be available to meet him this afternoon:
"Miss Danister said she would come to see me alone, and the place would be on the terrace of Big Ben in Belindel, as I mentioned."
Shad had already borrowed a place from the Countess in advance, and Shad also mentioned the news that Miss Feliana and Fiona were going together in his letter to Miss Danister.
The specific meeting time is 2 o'clock in the afternoon of this Tuesday, and Xia De certainly has no free time this morning.
After breakfast, Dorothy excitedly asked Shad to wait, and then she and Megan found Shad with a roll of old-looking parchment:
"Look at this! I recorded your story, about the miracles of the Silver Moon God!"
She was so energetic early in the morning because she had successfully completed the task last night. The evidence of her success was that there was indeed a miracle element on the parchment.
Although the miracle element is not like the whisper element that cannot be created artificially, if this parchment was originally just ordinary paper and only possessed the element because of the story written on it, then she did succeed.
Miss Feliana was also beside Shade at this time, and Fiona was dressed as a maid and followed behind the teacher.
"If this is truly a miracle from God, theoretically it should be able to help believers of this God gain divine powers through reading and knowing stories."
The demigod witch said with great interest, and Megan nodded immediately:
"I have discussed this with Dorothy, so Shad should be able to learn this 'miracle'. And given Shad's relationship with the god, he should be able to learn it just by reading the story."
This was indeed something worth trying. To read the story, Shad only needed to unfold the parchment and take a look. But Dorothy thought that such a serious and solemn thing should never be done in the corridor.
Therefore, out of respect for Dorothy and Megan's work, the group went to the library on the ship.
This was originally a library. For this luxury cruise ship, the library, casino, theater, and indoor swimming pool were just basic features. The quiet library was filled with books from the Sixth Era that Miss Elither had collected since she woke up, with only a small number of them "brought" from the Fifth Era.
Today, Miss Elither was busy exchanging sea charts with Miss Aurora to determine the next route, so she did not come here with the group.
Shad, Megan, Dorothy and Miss Felienanna all sat down at the long table in the library. Fiona, dressed as a maid, stood behind Miss Felienanna. Her movements were very skilled, no less than those of professional maids like Tifa and Matilda.
"Then I'll start."
Unfolding the parchment, the common language of the Northern Kingdom in the Sixth Epoch recorded the story of the Silver Moon God switching between day and night to deal with powerful enemies.
The parchment was not long, and the story on it was quite short, as was often the case with religious stories and miracles of gods. There was no need to write something as long as a novel that could be explained in a few sentences.
But the problem is that after Shad finished reading, nothing happened.
"Is it because of the wrong time?"
Fiona asked:
"Since it's about miracles in the dark, maybe we should study at night."
"No, this story is about the transition from day to night, so you should study during the day."
The author of miracles, Dorothy, denied it.
The wise witch came up with other ideas:
"Most miracles must be learned in accordance with the description of the story, so some miracles require materials for casting. But in this miracle, the Silver Moon God doesn't seem to use any items. Does it need to be in the sun?"
Shade thinks this is not right either:
"The point is not the sunshine, but the 'daytime'."
The purple-skirted and blonde demigod witch finally expressed her opinion:
"Maybe it's the wrong place. Since it's a miracle of the Moon God, maybe it needs to be in a temple to show piety. At least in the Fifth Epoch, witches had to go to churches and temples to learn divine arts."
"Temple?"
Dorothy immediately laughed:
"That's really a coincidence. Before the end of the Red Butterfly Day, we, as the chosen ones of the space, were commissioned by someone on the ship to create a special mirror. That mirror is a space channel connecting this ship and the Randall River Valley-Night Temple. This channel can only last until tomorrow noon, and we can go there now."
"Wait a minute, who asked you to open the passage to that place?"
Xia De asked doubtfully, and the blonde writer smiled and shook her head:
"I can't tell you, but you should know soon."
Dorothy then left with Fiona and soon returned with the heavy-looking floor-length mirror. The shape of the mirror looked very familiar to Shade, with a counterweight at the base and a circle of randomly made runes around the mirror frame:
"Isn't this the mirror that opera troupes often use during performances?"
Dorothy reached out and pressed a few times on the runes on the mirror frame, and ripples appeared on the mirror surface until a different scenery appeared.
The group came together from the library on the ship to the Night Temple in the Randall River Valley. The entrance on the side of the Night Temple where the mirror appeared was located on the left side of the cave leading from the cave at the foot of the mountain to the side wall where the temple was located.
Therefore, after walking out of the cabin, we came directly to the side of the valley cliff on a sunny summer morning.
Looking forward, there is an endless river valley and forest; looking to the side, there are relatively narrow side cliffs and the remains of three giant arches.
"It's working. The miracle element on the parchment is getting stronger."
Shade said as he led the group through the stone archway to the open space at the end of the spirit temple where the ground was engraved with symbols of the sun, moon and stars.
Miss Feliana looked down at the ritual pattern on the ground, and then Fiona's big tail swept gently behind her, and the layer of dust was blown away by the wind.
Dorothy and Megan also looked around and finally came to the conclusion that this "Night Temple" had indeed been abandoned for too many years. If it weren't for the three broken arches, this place would be no different from an ordinary cliff.
"Doesn't this ritual formation already exist in the temple?"
Fiona asked curiously while listening to Dorothy and Megan's discussion. Dorothy shook her head and looked at Shad.
"Shad said that this was left here after he performed a strange ritual related to time."
However, they did not come here to study the ritual array this time. The ladies chatted and laughed and retreated to the cliff. Xia De stood alone in the center of the sun, moon and stars ritual array and opened the parchment again to read the story.
This time, as he quietly recounted his experience, the ritual array on the ground lit up, and a layer of silver, yellow, and red moonlight appeared on the three broken arches.
As the story was finished, the miracle elements gathered from the parchment and the glowing ground to Shade's body. However, because this was not to obtain the spirit rune, the life ring in the soul did not automatically emerge.
A rich ink color appeared around Shade's body, as if he had summoned the night again. The powerful miracle element affected the real environment, and the rippling night gradually spread around Shade like ripples, but before it spread beyond the ritual array area on the ground, it disappeared under the suppression of sunlight.
The girls who saw this scene realized that Xia De had probably succeeded.
The "she" beside my ear gently reminded me:
[This is the story after the old days, this is the story of the dragon and the moon. The light intends to devour everything, so the moon calls upon the guardian of the night. When the long night falls, all things deserve peace. ]
[Outsider, you have acquired the magic "Nightfall Seal". Use the corresponding gesture to cast the seal to summon the nightfall. This shield resists light damage and mental damage. Use the seal in dark or dim light areas at night to achieve invisibility.]
