Chapter 2493 Elves Under the Starry Sky

At dinner that day, the witches, who cherished the opportunity that everyone was still here, all showed up at the table. In other words, except for Carina and Resia who had already left, even Margaret turned down other things and had dinner with everyone on the Shining Messenger.

Miss Elither gave the main seat in the restaurant to Shade, and Miss Feliana and Fiona, as guests, sat on Shade's left and right. The witches of the Fifth Epoch were not idle today. They chatted with Grace and Helen for a long time before they left in the morning. They did not leave the ship in the afternoon, but chatted with the ship girls in the captain's room.

They definitely talked about the present era, but most of them were probably things that Shade could not know. The dragon language spell that the boat girl who lived in the late Fifth Era gave Shade actually summoned witches from the middle Fifth Era, which showed that the demigod witches should have understood most of the Fifth Era to a certain extent.

During dinner that day, Shade did not forget to mention to the Countess the dragon scale that Mr. Albert had mentioned. Although Shade gave the witch the ruling law granted by the Fourth Son's Blessing in the form of a "power of attorney", he still returned the golden dragon scale that belonged to Belindel:

"This is something passed down from your ancestors, so you should keep it. The Chosen One said that he has no use for these dragon scales, so these are enough for me."

“I don’t quite understand!”

Ajelina asked embarrassedly:

"Why can the descendants of the fourth son of the ancient god grant people such a ruling principle?"

"According to the chosen one, this territory originally belonged to the fourth son of the ancient god, and was passed down from generation to generation. This has not changed even today."

Shade answered while cutting the steak, and Miss Felina kindly continued to explain:

"Just like the far north where Saint Byrons is located, it was originally the Night Kingdom of the old god [God of Night]. We obtained the consent of the gods to obtain that territory, so no matter what happens, unless we voluntarily give it up, that land will always belong to us. This is the origin and proof of ownership."

Fiona nodded quickly and looked at Shade with a smile. The Countess took the dragon scale that flew towards her, while Miss Aurora asked Shade curiously:

"What are you going to do with the remaining six pieces?"

Xia De had already thought about this question:

"Let our countess decide for herself. Although the highest priority of the ruling law is in Belindel, if other families can welcome back the dragon scales, at least the noble titles and wealth can be passed down.

I don't plan to return the brass dragon scales of the Hawthorne family and the black dragon scales of the Black family. As for the others, it depends on what Miss Belindel thinks."

“There is no eternal power, nor eternal rule.”

The red birthmark between the eyebrows sets off the beautiful face:

"Let Shade keep the rest. If they deserve Moon Bay, they can still enjoy power even without the ruling legal basis given by dragon scales."

Although she said this, she collected the golden dragon scales belonging to her family:

"Moon Bay and Carina's Saradir County share a territorial border. Once I completely control Moon Bay, the inland Saradir County will directly gain access to the west coast of the Old World. Smuggling business is a small matter. This means that in the Sixth Epoch, the land controlled by the witches has extended from the coastline to the inland, which is good for everyone."

As he spoke, he raised his glass, and the others also raised their glasses and clinked them together.

Luvia supports her approach:

"It's good that the dragon scale is no longer circulated. There are no ring sorcerers in the other six major families now. Giving them extraordinary items may cause other troubles."

Then she mentioned another thing. In Luvia's opinion, the chain reaction caused by the change in the political structure of Yuewan City and the subsequent civil war that might affect the entire Old Continent were not important to her at all:

"Shade, Iluna sent a letter this afternoon. Miss Danister wants to meet with you and have a chat in the next two days. I think she wants to resolve the doubts about the Battle of Moon Bay."

"Is that 13th-level sorceress the current academy librarian?"

The Red Dragon girl asked curiously, and Shade nodded, so Miss Feliana suggested:

"Why don't I go with you then? I also want to talk to the current professor at St. Byron's. In particular, I heard from Miss Annatte that she is your current tutor?"

"um, yes."

"Teacher, can I go too?"

The Red Dragon girl asked with great interest, and indeed, she got her answer.

After dinner, Shade did not go out again, but went to visit Emilia. His work in Moon Bay was over, and Emilia's summer vacation only had the last two or three weeks left. He wanted to ask the elf girl when she planned to return to the academy.

When Shade found Emilia, she was running on the deck with the little unicorn. Miss Eliza's magic made it difficult for the people on the dock to see the beautiful little beast on the deck, so they could play freely under the stars.

"I'm trying to get little Lianna to lose weight. She's been eating too much lately."

The girl with pointy ears explained, not wanting to tell Shade that she had gained a lot of weight recently:

"Ajelina was going to walk with us, but she said she had to pack her bags, so Miss Servet took her away. Shade, I have to go too, right?"

She leaned against the railing, looking at Shade with her emerald eyes. The little unicorn stood aside and looked at the two of them, then looked at the cat on Shade's shoulder:

"It depends on your own wishes. But the academy team will leave Yuewan soon. It will be more convenient for you to follow them back to the academy then."

Emilia didn’t dare to ask “Do you want me to leave?”, but whispered:

"Yeah, the Moon Bay thing is over, and summer is about to end."

She pursed her lips and looked at Xia De:

"Thank you for your hospitality, in Tobesk and in Moon Bay. I had a great time this summer, and so did little Lianna. I don't know when I will leave the academy next time."

The voice became lower and lower until Shade could no longer hear what she was saying. The elf girl lowered her head and her eyes were a little red. For a moment, she really wanted to ask Shade if he was willing to take her back to Tobesk and let her become a correspondence ring sorcerer.

But she knew that this was impossible. Her race and origin determined that she was destined to be different from humans. Therefore, she did not have the courage to ask this question that would only annoy everyone. She just said with a forced smile:

"Then I will go back to the academy with Miss Danister and the headmaster. I have been away for too long this time, and my family and friends will miss me. Oh, the academy dormitory, the habitat of little Lianna and the others, the big library, and the cherry cake at lunch, it seems like it was so many years ago."

"If you hadn't started crying while you were talking, I might have believed you."

Xia De bent down slightly, wanting to wipe away her tears in the night breeze:

"If you don't want this summer to end, you can stay for a while. When you want to go back, I will inform Miss Danister. Does the college start in September? There is still more than half a month left."

But Emilia grabbed Shade's hand, preventing him from wiping away the tears that kept falling, and looked at him stubbornly with her emerald eyes:

"No, I don't want to bother you. Summer is over. Even though I hate it, the summer of 1854 is over for me."

Even if she really cried the next second, Shade would not be surprised, but after the adventure in Moon Bay, Emilia Sienord was much stronger than anyone imagined. Tears were still rolling down, and she looked at Shade through the stars and the moon:

"Thank you, Xia De, for this summer. Thank you for freezing time in my heart. I will remember you."

"Don't talk like we'll never see each other again."

Shade smiled at her. The skin of elves was extremely delicate, and even at such a close distance, no pores could be seen. Her emerald eyes were somewhat different from Dorothy's green eyes, and her pointed ears were the most different thing from human girls:

“We will still meet in the academy, and if you want, you can apply for a summer internship in Tobesk next summer.

And don't thank me, Emilia, the memories of this summer were made by you, me, Ajelina, Little Lianna, and many more. I just got you into trouble, Emilia, we'll see each other again."

He looked at the crying girl and suddenly took a deep breath. Then time went back and the falling tears flowed upwards again and disappeared.

Under the starry sky, he said to the young elf very seriously:

"Don't freeze your time, Emilia. Whether you are looking back or moving forward, don't be too nostalgic about the stories you have experienced. Because only when the long river of time takes you forward can you meet new friends and have new reunions."

Behind Emilia, thick steam mist appeared silently. Amid the sound of bells and whistles, her five-ring life ring emerged. The gray airflow generated by Shade's "Breath of Time" just now drifted towards the rotating life ring. After a moment, the miracle - [Time] was engraved on the life ring.

Emilia didn't look back, but just pursed her lips and stared at the young man under the starry sky.

Xia De felt a little embarrassed when she looked at him, so he took the initiative to say:

"When you go back, you can prepare to advance to the Sixth Ring, right? And you have been looking forward to obtaining the [Time] Spirit Rune before adulthood, so now you have finally got what you wanted. Oh, regarding the exploration of the Time Key, I can't give you too much experience. My exploration of the Time Key always raises strange questions."
