Chapter 2748 Dancing and Coffin

As he said this, he asked the maids to bring in fruits and snacks, and then decisively returned to the next room.

"So, you knew your mother would knock on the door?"

After the door was closed, Xia De asked Leicia, and Her Royal Highness the Princess smiled and nodded:

"Of course I even guessed she'd come in the second act."

“But Leicia originally guessed that she would send Ajelina and Alice to deliver the fruit, but she didn’t expect that she would come in person.”

Dorothy smiled and added that Leicia didn't care that her guess was slightly wrong:

"I know my mother very well. She is a very face-conscious person. Since she has already disturbed us once, she will not disturb us a second time before the end. So, as long as we are quick, we can clean up the room before the end of the last scene."

She held out her hand to Shad, but Dorothy held it back, and the writer warned:

"That won't do, Leicia. Didn't we agree that this is extracurricular teaching outside of Saturdays, and we want Shad to take a good look at the modern version of The Crystal Light? Besides, the girls in the opera troupe are rehearsing so hard, what if Shad doesn't see it in the end?"

Then she took Shad's hand and asked him to sit down again. Shad also felt that what Dorothy said made sense:

"It's still a long night, and aren't we going home together tonight?"

"You two are bullying me together now, right?"

Her Royal Highness complained softly, then sat down on Shade's left hand side. She reached forward, picked a purple grape from the fruit bowl, and put it to Shade's mouth.

Queen Diana did not knock on the door before the opera ended, and of course she did not send the little princesses or maids to knock on the door. But after the opera ended, she specifically asked Leicia in the corridor:

"Lecia, are you going back to Yodel Palace tonight?"

"I promised my aunt that I would stay at her place tonight. Her maid is waiting for me in the carriage downstairs."

Carina's maid was indeed downstairs, but she was not there to take her to the manor outside the city, but to take the three of them home. Although tonight was still the night of the Red Butterfly, it did not prevent Carina from staying in another room at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square.

Since Lecia said so, Queen Diana no longer mentioned asking her to return to Yodel Palace.

She watched Lesia get on the carriage downstairs, then said goodbye to Shad and Dorothy who were planning to find a carriage to go home, and then she took her three daughters and got on the royal carriage back to Yodel Palace.

"Ajelina, you should also spend the night at Carina's manor tonight."

But when the carriage drove through the gate of the Yodel Palace, Queen Diana said to Ajelina again, and the little princess looked at her mother in surprise:

"Tonight? I'm going to my aunt's manor now? Isn't this inappropriate? There was no invitation, and I didn't say hello in advance. I suddenly ran there at night."

"It's okay. Just tell them that you want to sleep with Lecia tonight. Didn't you often sleep with Lecia when you were a kid?"

But that was all many years ago, and Ajelina knew she couldn't disobey her mother, so she told her maid to prepare first.

Queen Diana asked the servants to escort the two younger princesses back to their rooms first, and then she stood in front of the carriage and said:

"Of course, I asked you to go to Carina's place because I wanted you to help confirm whether Leicia really returned to the manor to spend the night."

Ajelina then pretended to be innocent and asked:

"If my sister wasn't there, where else could she go? I remember she didn't buy any property in the city."

Queen Diana smiled and stroked her daughter's hair:

"Who knows? Leicia is grown up now and has her own ideas and plans. I heard some things during my pregnancy, but they were just rumors. Go, Ajelina, I will arrange for an escort to take you there, don't worry about your safety."

So Ajelina really took a carriage with her personal maids and went out of the city to the Carina Manor. Of course, there was no Resia or Carina in the manor, but the maids could show that the Duke and the Princess were there.

So Ajelina stayed in the manor for another ten minutes to make sure that the coachman and guards who brought her there had gone back - male servants were not allowed to stay in the Carina Manor - and then she got on the Duchess's carriage back to the city.

This back and forth resulted in her arriving downstairs at number six, Saint Teresa's Square, when it was already ten o'clock. The little princess knocked on the door, and Tifa opened it a moment later. It was obvious that the people in the house were not surprised at all that Ajelina was visiting tonight.

The little princess looked around the square furtively before going back into the room. Although it was very troublesome for her to run around tonight, she inexplicably felt that it was very interesting:

"Miss Servet, are my sister and Shad upstairs?"

Her personal maid was left downstairs, and she followed the black-haired maid upstairs, who smiled and said:

"Yes, Her Highness Leicia is dancing for Shade upstairs."

"What are you doing dancing so late at night?"

Ajelina thought with some confusion, and soon followed Tifa to the second floor.

After opening the door, I didn't see Carina and Luvia, but only the giant Shad sitting on the sofa, and Leicia, who was held up by his huge right hand, was dancing in his palm with a smile to the violin music of Dorothy beside her.

The scene of the enlarged Shad and the petite princess in his palm was particularly impactful. Ajelina took a breath. Although the scene was sound, she somehow thought of many strange things, and then she felt that she probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

This was indeed the case. Luvia and Carina slept in Room 2 on the second floor tonight, while Ajelina stayed in the side bedroom of Room 1. When she got up to go to the bathroom after tossing and turning in the middle of the night, she happened to see a crack in the door of the master bedroom, with pink and silver light seeping out from it.

"Is it Shade's illumination spell, and the pink series's love spell 'Light of Love'?"

She unconsciously pulled her feet out of her slippers and stepped directly on the ground, then quietly approached there. When she came close to the crack in the door, the Silence Charm had already failed. So Ajelina's green eyes widened through the crack in the door, and she saw the contents of the bedroom that were not even written in her books.

In short, this Thursday's Red Butterfly Day was busy but peaceful and fulfilling because there were no major events. When Leicia and Dorothy said goodbye to Shad with a kiss early on Friday morning, Shad was already looking forward to the next Red Butterfly Day.

Shad went downstairs to see them off. Dorothy was going back to her apartment on Quill Street, while Lesia and Ajelina were going to take a walk outside the city before returning to Yodel Palace.

Shade didn't know that after the carriage started, Leicia asked Ajelina with a smile whether she slept well last night. After he returned upstairs, Luvia smiled and said:

"From the look on your face, Shade, I'm pretty sure you're looking forward to the next Red Butterfly Day."

"Lecia and Dorothy have always been resourceful."

Karina also sat on the sofa and laughed, so Shade "threatened" them:

"Don't laugh there, you two. You, and you, I want to see you two at home tonight."

"Of course, so remember to come back early~"

After breakfast, Xia De did not leave immediately, but planned to deal with the coffin first. Now the undead in the coffin no longer existed, and the seal had been completely opened by Grace and Helen, so if you ignore its appearance, it is just a simple ancient space alchemy tool.

This type of space-based item is one of the few items that Shade cannot turn into a toy, even if he goes to the Holy White Chapel to receive a blessing. Therefore, due to its huge size, unless Shade wants to carry the coffin out one day, it can only be kept at home for a long time.

"Xia De, do you really want to keep this coffin at home?"

The fortune teller who had not yet left asked together with the Duchess. Although she did not object, she obviously did not support what Shade did:

"What the family lacks now is space to accommodate more people, rather than a coffin-like space to store items."

This makes sense, and if you think about it carefully, there is really no point in putting it in the house. Although there is a space as big as a room, Shade doesn't have that much space:

"Then I'll put it in the tree hole in Vista Forest for the time being. But since I finally got this high-level alchemical item, I should find a way to use it, right? I haven't thought about selling it."

"How about donating it to the Witch Council? This is a creation of the witches of the Fifth Era, and didn't you speculate that this coffin was made by the thirteenth-level witch you met at the dock? The Council likes to collect relics of thirteenth-level witches like this."

Carina suggested, but Luvia could tell at a glance that Shade was reluctant:

"Or, how about finding someone to modify the appearance? The appearance of the coffin is indeed a bit too much. I think it would be a good idea to change it into a cabinet."

"That's fine, but who can transform this thing now? I'll put it in Vista Forest first and solve the problem when I have time."

Mia was brought to Vesta Forest by Shade. After placing the coffin in the hidden space, Shade visited the forest elves on the way.

Then they went straight into the city, and when they arrived at the Accordion Inn, the ladies were all there. Miss Danister was fine after not seeing her for a day, but Flora gave Shade a very warm hug.

In fact, ever since that dream, Flora has always been very enthusiastic about Shad.

"How was your rest yesterday?"

She took Shad's hand and made him sit on the sofa.

"not bad."

Of course, Shade would not describe what he had done:

"Did anything happen in the city yesterday?"
