Chapter 2428 The Maid Who Learns
The word "great" was emphasized by Ms. Foran.
"And now this thick fog, whose source is unclear, has spread from the city to the waters of Yuewan Port and the rural areas outside the city. The fog is spreading faster and faster, and the amount of special light that can accumulate will also increase."
She waved her hand:
"Have you never wondered how they manipulated that abnormal light?"
“I’ve been curious, but I don’t know the answer.”
"The answer is that the professors of the Truth Society provided research materials, and the Light Worshipers Research Society has a very special divine item. It is said that the Light Chaser's ability to become the thirteenth ring is related to this."
"There really is a Truth Society everywhere. Go on, is it a relic?"
Xia De asked again. He was originally worried that the other party would say that he didn't know. Unexpectedly, the middle-aged woman continued:
"It's not a relic, it's a statue of the ancient god of light. No, not a large statue, but one as big as this."
She gestured, and according to Shade's estimation, it was about the size of Mia:
“No one knows how the Light Worshipers’ Institute came up with something like this, but we are sure that this information is correct.
They were now allowing the dense fog to accumulate light and setting up ceremonies in various places in the city. They were waiting for the Chosen Ceremony of the Seventh Chosen One, and the light born in that ceremony was almost equal to the light of the Ancient God.
The light stimulates the statue, and then with the help of the ritual, a high-intensity special light is gathered. Then, under the guidance of the power of the ancient statue, everything in the Moon Bay area turns into light. "
The logic is sound and it sounds feasible:
"Are you familiar with the details of the ceremony?"
"Of course I don't know, but don't take the ceremony too seriously. Among the four conditions of thick fog, light, ceremony, and the ancient god's statue, the ceremony is the least important thing."
She placed her right hand on the table and stood up.
"Okay, okay, enough of that. I think that's enough. I'm going to say goodbye to my two cousins and then I'll leave first."
"Wait a minute, I have one more thing!"
Shade immediately said:
"How much do you know about slugs?"
Ms. Foran frowned slightly:
"You even know this? Don't ask me. We are also looking for it, but even if this strange elemental life is really in the Moon Bay area, it cannot be caught by ordinary means. Okay, really don't ask, otherwise I will become a traitor. Also, be nice to your cousins. I know how bad life can be caused by an unhappy marriage."
She waved to Xia De and really left.
Xia De continued to sit at the table. It took a while before Megan came out from the bookshelf again:
"She said goodbye to me and left. So, did she find out something?"
"Yes, the situation is more urgent than expected."
Xia De put down his teacup:
"Notify the others later and ask them to gather on the ship tomorrow, Thursday. We probably really don't have time."
The waiting time was much longer than the conversation time, so when we returned to Bellindel Manor, it was actually not yet half past eight.
The ladies were all waiting for the two to come back. After hearing from Shade that the Dragon Feast Cult's divine descent ceremony would be held between this Sunday and next Tuesday, and that the Light Worshipers' Seminar also wanted to launch a disaster during the Chosen One's ceremony, they all understood that time was urgent.
Although Megan said that she would return to St. Teresa's Square with Shade tonight, it was still early and she had some things to arrange in Yuewan, so Shade was in no hurry to leave.
Luvia could see that Shad was in a heavy mood, so she first asked him if he needed a midnight snack. After getting a negative answer, she asked Shad to take a shower first, then brought Mia over and let Shad be alone in the study room of the manor for a while. She understood that Shad needed to think about various things now.
The well-behaved cat could understand Shad's mood, so it just lay on Shad's legs. Shad sat on the soft single sofa, looking at the thick fog outside the window while thinking about whether there were any omissions in his plans and arrangements:
"Miss Isabella from the past life must come. I don't expect that I can confront the gods head-on with just a maze, but at least I have to use this maze to delay the most appropriate time to burn my divinity in my mortal form."
Currently he still had three drops of divinity, and after removing the required amount for promotion to the eighth ring, he could only burn two drops. But Xia De felt it would be best not to use up all the divinity, so if one drop of divinity could solve the problem, that would be the best.
Therefore, choosing the right time to burn the divinity was very important. The best time was when all the "helpers" from Shadra were present. Only then would they have a chance to defeat the "Nameless Eldest Son" together. Otherwise, any one of them alone would probably not be a match for the evil god.
[So, when should this month's black time key be used? ]
she asked with a chuckle.
"Saturday night."
Shade answered this question, but the key is not to use the key, but to make Miss Isabella meet the qualifications of "Thorn of Love" and "Maze Lock-Clock Tower Lover". Although there are so many girls around him, in fact, he is not very good at talking about love with girls.
"why are you laughing?"
【nothing. 】
"She" said with a smile, and was clearly still smiling.
dong dong dong~
There was a knock on the door, and Shad thought it was Megan getting ready to leave, but when he said "Come in", it was Tifa and Matilda who came in.
"what happened?"
He asked curiously, but Tifa smiled and shook her head. The black-haired and blonde head maids were both wearing black and white maid dresses, but they both looked a little tall.
After careful observation and listening, I noticed that they were all wearing black high heels instead of the usual black low-heeled leather shoes. This was very unusual, after all, it was inconvenient for maids to work in the manor in high heels.
Tifa walked in front, bent down, picked up the cat lying on Shad's lap, and put it on the coffee table beside her. Then she took the plate from Matilda who was lowering her head behind her and put the midnight snack next to the cat.
"I don't need a midnight snack. I'm not hungry now."
Xia De said again, but the black-haired maid with narrowed eyes and a smile shook her head again, turned around to confirm that the door of the study was closed, then raised her hand and the door was locked with a click:
"This is not a midnight snack prepared for you. It's prepared for Mia to prevent her from disturbing us."
"What do you mean?"
"Miss Edwards is still in the basement, arranging the cooking of potions tonight and the transfer of the alchemy workshop to the ship tomorrow morning. It will take at least an hour to complete these issues."
Seeing that Xia De wanted to stand up, she stood in front of Xia De and pressed Xia De's shoulders with both hands, which was not in line with the etiquette of a maid. But because of her body leaning forward, Xia De felt the feeling that Mia had often felt recently.
Xia De sat down again, then pursed his lips and touched his nose. The black-haired maid stood up straight, still smiling, but her face was a little flushed:
"I'm not with the young lady. Is she doing well recently?"
"It's OK. Although I only see her every night, she is willing to talk to me about her life. Although things at Yodel Palace have been busy recently, she has finally found a balance after you left. At least I don't think she is tired. On the contrary, she is very energetic. Really very energetic."
"So, the young lady has been very happy every night since she moved into 6 Saint Teresa's Place."
Tifa smiled again, and Shade suspected that she was hinting at something. But since Matilda was still here, he didn't ask any more questions.
"Tifa, you and Miss Ellington are here to..."
"Please call me by my first name."
The blonde maid finally spoke, and Shade nodded.
"Okay, Matilda, I've been calling you that before. Tifa, what are you doing, uh~"
The black-haired maid stepped forward again, but this time she bent down. Her smiling dark brown eyes and beautiful eyelashes came closer and closer, and when her eyes were full of Shade, she had already kissed Shade.
The stranger opened his eyes wide in surprise, but saw that the pair of dark brown eyes seemed to be able to speak, as if telling him not to be so surprised.
The two lips parted, and the delicate little nose seemed to touch Xia De's nose intentionally, and then the maid smiled and straightened up:
"It's like this, Master. Matilda wants to learn some necessary knowledge from me as a maid."
The voice sounded deliberately teasing.
"Well, but isn't Matilda a very powerful head maid herself?"
Xia De looked at the blonde maid, whose face was slightly red, but she had already raised her head:
"There are things I haven't learned yet."
"Yes."
Tifa turned her head slightly, squinting at Shade, her lips curled up, and her hair covered the left corner of her left eye that Shade couldn't see because of her turned head:
"Matilda said she didn't know how to cheer her master up when she was upset."
By the time Xia De understood what this meant, they had already tied up their long hair and sat on the carpet, one on the left and one on the right, with two pairs of black gaurds slanted on both sides and long skirts made of high-grade black fabrics made by Miss Sylvia.
Shade hurriedly tried to get up again, but was stopped by Tifa again. This time, she looked up at Shade, her dark brown eyes shining:
"Please help me, master~"
Shade fell back on the soft sofa, so Tifa smiled and bit her lip and began to teach. Matilda, who was sitting next to him, was blushing and grabbed her skirt, but she looked at the scene without avoiding it. After seeing something that often appeared in her dreams recently, the wings of her small nose fluttered a few times because of inexplicable emotions. After a little hesitation, she also came forward.
Mia was eating cream biscuits on the coffee table. She had no idea what the maids were doing, but their food was definitely not as delicious as hers.
