Chapter 3102 Parliament of the New Era
The suburbs were badly damaged, but the city center was not unscathed either.
While Shad and Emilia were heading to the woods, a fireball carrying more than a dozen bugs hidden inside the meteorite hit the block east of the Golden Music Hall. Before the ring wizard team in the city eliminated them, Vesta City's most famous "Mrs. Walter Pedestrian Street" had completely become history.
Because the war had just ended, it was not clear how many people had died in Vista. But it was a small city after all, and the population base was not high. Shade did not know whether this was good news or not.
As for the damage to the city's buildings and other public facilities, it was even more serious. In addition, after the war, in order to prevent relics or undead bugs from lurking in the city, the church would organize multiple rounds of city-wide inspections, which basically meant that Vista City would not be able to return to normal before the end of the year.
The good news is that the Accordion Hotel, which the artist misses, did not suffer any damage in the disaster. However, the snowstorm was so heavy this time that if no one maintains the hotel's facilities in time during the winter, the condition of the house may be very worrying when spring comes.
Therefore, Flora decided to buy the Accordion Hotel with Sylvia as soon as possible, and she must not let the church find out that this is related to the Witch Council.
"Shad, aren't the remaining three girls from the Bennet family yours? Can you think of a solution in this regard?"
Flora suddenly said, and Xia De, who had just picked up the glass of milk, was almost frightened:
"Who told you that?"
Ajelina's ears immediately pricked up, and Flora pointed to the north:
"When Danister brought Emilia to visit me before leaving, the elf told me about your time transfer station and Thomas Bennett."
Except for Vanessa, Sylvie and Megan who had met Shad in the city, most people here didn't know about this. Seeing that Shad had no objection, Flora briefly described the general situation.
While others were lamenting Thomas Bennet's strange fate, Flora continued to ask Shad:
"Now the Bennet family's property, including the hotel, theoretically belongs to the three sisters. What are your plans?"
"Is it my turn to deal with this matter? The church will probably strictly examine the origins of every item in the Bennett family to confirm whether there are items from other times. As for the three sisters, even if the time transfer station has disappeared with the destruction of the remains of the world tree, the church will probably not let them go easily."
"But Hotel"
The artist looked at Xia De with a sharp gaze, and it seemed that she was determined to get there, so Xia De had no choice but to say:
"I will also discuss with the church about sealing the other twisted tree holes. When the time comes, I will say that I want the Bennet family's property and hope that the Bennet ladies can be released, but they must be confined to the woods forever and cannot leave here. However, if this is done, Jane Bennet and Cumming's engagement will probably be annulled, and the church will not allow the Bennet family to have offspring.
In short, I will take part of the Bennet family's property and donate the rest to the local people affected by the disaster. Then I will claim that I have checked all the real estate and they are all fine. Finally, I will entrust the church to sell the real estate and give me the money. "
Flora happily pulled Sylvia's sleeve:
"After dinner, we will discuss how to buy the hotel. There is no need to let our own people do it. We can just find some unimportant people to hold it on our behalf. Margaret can help with this. Don't worry about the crown issue. I think Danister is also willing to invest in our hotel."
"I'm worried about Kron now?"
Sylvia said in a low voice, but she did not object to acquiring this industry that did not mean much to her.
"There is also the issue of Emilia's condition."
Megan brought up this new topic again. Although she insisted on contacting the church with Vanessa, she did not let Audrey show up because she was tired:
"I discussed this with my mother-in-law before breakfast. I don't know if I understood it correctly - although Emilia's power is not complete, her identity is complete."
Everyone was thinking about her words. Shade couldn't comment because she hadn't met Emilia yet. Luvia answered her:
"That's about right. She had a brief exchange with me before she left. Her abilities as the Chosen One are not very apparent in her normal state, and it is even more impossible for her to use her powers at any time like Iluna and Sister Daveline. At most, she can only switch between being tall and short.
It may be possible to use some power in a critical moment, but if it takes too long, it will cause the seal here to break down."
"This ability to change age at any time is already amazing."
Vanessa said sadly that it would probably take her a long time to fully accept the fact that she would no longer enjoy her youth:
"Speaking of which, Shade, when do you plan to lift Miss Danister's time curse?"
"Vanessa~"
Hillis on the side patted her gently, thinking that the Witch of Earth couldn't get youth herself and didn't want others to get it - that's what Vanessa thought.
Xia De touched Mia, who was licking goat milk beside him.
"Sister Develyn needs to rest for a while, and she said at the time that she needs to cooperate with the Chosen Ones of Time to lift the curse. It's hard to say whether Emilia can help now. Let's wait and see the situation after they come back."
"Forever 18 years old~"
Vanessa wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and sighed:
"Flora has seen the path to the twelfth level after what happened this time. I wonder if the Red Moon Witch can find the path to demigodhood because of this. Well, I know you are all waiting for others to ask this question, and you don't want to appear too eager. Since no one is asking, I'll ask it myself."
As soon as the words came out, everyone at the table stopped talking, and even the maids subconsciously held their breath.
Although it was Vanessa who was speaking, the girls' eyes were all on Shad.
Vanessa didn't actually ask a question, but Shade knew what they wanted to know. Luvia smiled and gently kicked Shade under the table with her foot, probably indicating that she had just told Shade to prepare his answer.
"Miss Brienne Olannod did become a demigod during this war, but she is about to take the final step, so her method is not useful as a reference. Instead of thinking about this, you should continue to look at the ice crystal Chloe gave me."
"What specific method did the demigod use?"
Xiwei also asked. Although Vanessa was the only witch present who was at the thirteenth level, as the first witch to enter the twelfth level, she was actually closer to the thirteenth level than anyone else present, so her desire to become a demigod was even stronger.
Shade decided to tell the truth, but just like the discussion with Luvia just now, he wanted to let those who should know the truth know it, and the girls who shouldn't know the truth for the time being:
"Method? It's the same method that Vanessa used to advance to level thirteen."
"Blessing from the Moon God?"
Sylvia confirmed in a low voice. Apart from the very old Grandma Cassandra, she was the only one who was not at the twelfth level (Flora would be promoted soon), so she was very interested in this topic.
Carina, Megan and Vanessa, who knew clearly the hidden meaning of Shad, were a little surprised. Tifa and Hillis, who also knew the truth, also looked at Shad secretly.
Under the table, someone's foot gently kicked Shad. It could be Dorothy or Luvia. Megan pursed her lips and stared at Shad. The hand holding the spoon had already bent the spoon unconsciously.
"Are you sure you're using the same method as Vanessa to get promoted?"
“The location is different, but everything else is basically the same.”
"Are you sure they are basically the same?"
The red-haired Duchess also pursed her lips.
"Yes, sure."
The witches had different expressions, but to Dorothy, who had been silent, some of them looked like they were about to "eat" Shad on the dining table.
"Me too."
I heard the slightly depressed voice of Lecia. Her Royal Highness, who had just arrived at the Kingdom Parliament and sat down, looked up and listened to her father's speech. What she said was sincere.
【Witch Council.】
While watching the girls talking about their own things, Xia De suddenly heard "her" voice:
"what?"
[Is the current situation considered a new era of the Witch Council? ]
"I think so. Eight of the thirteen witches are already here, and I still have so many votes. Maybe I can adopt a new approach next time I contact new witches."
After breakfast, the girls went to rest. Hillis took Margaret and Miss Swift to prepare the evening banquet, while Miss Bell took people away from the ship to help Tifa, and also helped Shade ask the church about the seal of the tree hole.
Xia De took advantage of the free time to go to the captain's room and talk to Miss Elither about her future plans. After learning that she would leave with Xi Wei to continue the unfinished renovation work of the Glorious Messenger, Xia De changed the subject:
"You've been to St. Byrons, haven't you?"
The big-hearted, blue-eyed, black-haired boat girl winked:
“Of course, I accompanied Miss Violet on several visits. Theresa was also there.”
"I'm not talking about the end of the Fifth Age, I'm talking about the middle period. When we were fighting the Watchers on the outskirts of the city last night, Emilia called in Fiona and Miss Wilder and the others. I see that you seem to be very familiar with those dragon maids who lived in the middle of the Fifth Age."
At that time, Shade turned into a giant and was "pulling trees", so he couldn't see clearly, but he was sure that Fiona looked like she knew the boat girl. In the past, he only suspected that the "Glorious" born at the end of the Fifth Age had traveled to many times before falling asleep, but this time it was completely confirmed.
"This"
The sea-blue eyes blinked a few times again. Before, she and Xia De had kept a tacit understanding about this matter in a certain sense. Now that Xia De had taken the initiative to point it out, she didn't want to lie to Xia De. The boat girl wanted to tell the truth, but suddenly an idea flashed in her mind, and her eyes narrowed because of a smile:
"Shad, let me guess - are you asking me this question because you want to see Miss Bryony Ollenord?"
