Chapter 2850: "Sky Blade" Paladin
Shade didn't pay attention to Vanessa's little action. After rubbing the ring to activate the effect of the magic ring, the skin on Vanessa's right arm was indeed recovering quickly.
Then the elf girl next to her took out a portion of external herb from her cloak, applied it on Vanessa's right arm, and asked Shad to use the "Breath of Time" to speed up the recovery by one month, and the witch's skin was completely restored.
"This time acceleration effect cannot be completely offset even by this ring, so in the future, try not to let witches who don't have strong time resistance fight against the dragon."
Finally, the elf girl concluded that among all the people present, only Shade, the elves and Miss Elither had strong time resistance. The blue dragon girl's time resistance came from her race. Although she should not be considered a dragon but a "natural elf born in the sea", she still had the characteristic of getting stronger with age.
As for Luvia, she doesn't have time resistance, but is rejected by any time effect because of the "time curse".
After confirming that Vanessa was fine, Shade stood up and looked around. Because this was a wilderness far away from the city, neither the dragon beast nor the witch and the boat girl had too many concerns when they started fighting.
The boat girl's cannons left the land in ruins, but Vanessa's constant manipulation of the land and gravity was the reason for the permanent change in the terrain of this area. As for the dragon's breath and the mist of time, they did not cause much damage to the area, but they were ultimately unable to leave it behind.
"There's something strange about that dragon."
This is Vanessa's verdict:
"I'm not talking about the protection it has from time. I mean, it's immune to the effects of gravity when it's flying in the sky. Although it has been using the instinctive talents of time and dragon beasts to fight us, I'm very sure it has powers related to the sky."
"Maybe it's the wind."
Luvia whispered behind Shade, and Shade looked at Emilia again. The little elf girl had been standing beside the witch and watching with concern when Shade was treating Vanessa's injuries. After Shade finished the treatment, she wanted to thank the "sister" who was wearing the same clothes as her, thanking her for disguising herself as her.
At this time, Emilia was a little confused when she saw Shad looking at her, and then she realized that Shad was looking behind her.
She turned her head and said in surprise after several seconds:
"Ajelina? When did you get here?"
The other ladies also looked over. The red-haired little princess, who looked quite excited, was soaked by the rain, but she was still full of energy. Tifa immediately covered her head with the umbrella she was holding:
"Your Highness, be careful not to catch a cold."
"It's okay, I'm fine! Emilia, I followed you three when they left from the dock at Lake Yoren on the Chocobo. You and I were on the same Chocobo."
She said with a smile, and patted her shoulder in response to Xia De's gaze:
“No one can see me, so no one will attack me. I was following Emilia the whole time, and I held her hand several times when we ran.”
But the young elf herself was unaware of this. She thanked the little princess first, and then realized:
"Your problem has been solved, right? Now everyone can actually see you!"
"It's only a partial solution. Ajelina is no longer unobservable, but her presence is very weak. If you don't keep talking to her, you will forget she is in the team after a while."
Carina walked over and held her niece's hand, then cast a water repellent spell on Ajelina. The two Cavendishes with the same bright red hair stood together, and Shad suddenly realized that Ajelina looked more like Carina than Leicia. Of course, they only looked alike.
"Lecia and Dorothy will be very happy for you, Ajelina, what have you figured out?"
The Duchess asked, and the little Princess answered:
"In fact, it feels good to be ignored by everyone. No matter what I do, I don't have to worry about being seen. That feeling is really...freeing."
As he spoke, he glanced at Xia De secretly, probably thinking of what he saw last night when he accidentally got lost and entered Xia De's room:
"So I thought, if I keep doing this, it wouldn't be bad to let Mia help me reappear occasionally. Just when I thought of this, Xia De suddenly saw me directly."
"This"
The Duchess hesitated:
"You think it's good to just disappear? Then you can just wait to be scolded by Lecia when you go back."
Ajelina's problems have not been completely solved, but the fact that she has gone from being completely "invisible" to having a low sense of presence is already a very good sign - although everyone will still subconsciously ignore her.
But at least the main purpose of this operation has been achieved. Although the thirteenth-ring warlock "Watchmaker" was only scared away, the halfling killer is suspected to be not dead, and the dragon beast directly escaped, the first battle of the Time War has ended, and Emilia has eliminated her first opponent - only the elf himself does not know this.
This is something worth celebrating, but because of the existence of the "great evil", now is not the time to hold a party to celebrate.
The worried elf girl returned to her tree house alone with the Ocarina of Time. Miss Eliza returned to the boat with Carina and Sylvie, while Shad returned to the city with Luvia, Vanessa, Emilia and the owl on his shoulder.
[And Ajelina Cavendish.]
"Yes, and Ajelina."
As he was about to ride on the unicorn, Shade turned around and looked at the little princess. She was holding Luvia's waist and sitting sideways behind her. She looked very nervous for some reason. When Shade looked at her, she smiled at him, and there was no worry in her smile.
The heavy rain did not stop until Tuesday night, and the rain also caused the outdoor temperature in downtown Vista to drop to near zero degrees.
Even though the city had already started central heating, the temperature in the hotel was still not high, so the hotel owner, Mr. Bennet, apologized to every guest staying in the hotel:
"I'm so sorry, the workers from the city hall are repairing the nearby steam pipes, and the temperature can't be raised right now. I'm so sorry."
Although most of the rooms on the third floor have fireplaces and therefore have little impact on the temperature, Mr. Bennet still provides free evening snacks to Miss Flora Winslet, who rents an entire floor, according to the number of rooms.
Miss Bell and her maids followed Mr. Bennet to get some refreshments, while in Miss Danister's room, the fire in the fireplace still illuminated the people who were still talking.
The red-haired girl and the Witch of Death sat together. Opposite Luvia sat Iluna who came after dinner. Shad sat on the armrest of the sofa where Luvia was sitting, and Emilia moved a chair and sat next to Iluna.
The crackling sound of burning wood was a good background sound. As Shad stroked the cat, he felt that the warmth at the moment was only slightly less than at home.
"It's going to snow in a few days, right?"
Miss Danister, holding the teacup, said:
“When I came to Vista City, I didn’t expect to stay here for the entire fall. Now that Emilia is about to leave, will the War of the Chosen be over next week?”
"Based on previous rules, it shouldn't be that fast."
Vanessa said this very experiencedly. It is worth mentioning that she is still wearing the sparkling silver moonlight ring on her right hand.
"I have met the candidates that the church belongs to."
Iluna also held a teacup. She liked the atmosphere at the moment very much:
"That candidate is a ring sorcerer from the local [Church of Nature], 6th ring, male, born in Baden, a fishing port city on the east coast of Carsenrick, not a native of Creekwood. Luvia's guess was correct. The church originally wanted him to go to an era when the God of Nature descended to seek enlightenment from the God, but he failed."
"I guess the God of Justice doesn't allow them to do this."
Shade said, and Iluna nodded immediately:
“Yes, yes. When I came here from Tobesk, the oracle gave the answer that Shade sought, and also mentioned that mortals should complete the Time War with their own strength, not the power of gods.
So the church arranged for Mr. Yuri Aston to choose another suitable time. They sought help from the local [Forest Hermits] and finally selected a paladin who had appeared in the legend of Creekwood Town. "
Although Iluna brought intelligence, she failed to bring any information, so everything had to be told orally by her.
"Paladin? There are still such people in this area? Are they heroes of this era?"
Flora was very surprised. The title of "Paladin" was not something that could be obtained easily.
"Yes, that Paladin lived in the early Sixth Epoch, around 100 to 300 years ago. I met him this morning. How should I put it? He was a very serious middle-aged man."
Iluna recalled:
"But you can guess what mount he rode into this era."
"Thestrals?"
"A winged horse with dragon blood?"
"Griffin?"
"A elk delivering gifts?"
The last sentence was said by a stranger, and Iluna didn't know what it meant:
"Miss Danister guessed correctly. It was a griffin, larger than any I have ever seen, and clad in shining armor."
She spread her arms and gestured, revealing to Emilia the information of the "opponent", which was probably the size of several thousand little Mias:
"That paladin's title was 'Blade of the Sky', a genuine thirteenth-ringed knight who belonged to the Church of Nature at the beginning of this era. At that time, Riverwood Town had not yet risen, there were only a few scattered villages in the forest, and there was no church in the area.
That gentleman was responsible for coming to this place to subdue a monster that no one knows about today, so he left behind his own legend and story. According to him, what he came here to subdue was a pure-blooded black dragon that migrated from the East. "
