Chapter 3127 and the Crescent Moon Secret Society
It was very easy to distinguish them in the camp. Firstly, their clothing was not of the same style as the hermits, and secondly, of course, they did not hide their physical features in the depths of the jungle.
Half-elves, dwarves, werewolves, catmen, winged people, minotaurs, dragonborns, halflings, and Shade even saw a snake girl. However, the other party was not in human form with the upper body and giant snake form with the lower body, but only had vertical pupils and one-third of the face was covered with snake scales.
This reminded Shade of the time when he took a boat to the ice lake to meet Chloe at the end of the story of "Black Sand Pier". There were also many alien witches in the camp of the little ice witch. But at that time, alien races could still walk in the civilized world, but now most of the ancient races are hiding on the edge of the civilized world. For various reasons, the alien ring warlocks living in the human world can only keep each other warm.
Mr. Steve Davis, the chief elder of the hermits, greeted the Witch Council team outside the camp. He once again thanked the witches for their rescue during the Battle of Vesta Glades and expressed his admiration for the "Godcaller" for saving the forest.
The Hermits will continue to be active in the Vesta Forest, and the story of the fall and winter of 1854 will be recorded and passed down by them. Although they will not directly participate in the maintenance of the seal, the forest still cannot be without their care.
On the way here, Flora had once again introduced to Shad in detail the current personnel composition of the [Crescent Moon Secret Order]. Therefore, when Mr. Davis introduced the president of the secret order to the "God Caller", Shad was not surprised by the lady with wings on her back.
"Joanna Lavallee. It is an honor to meet you, Godcaller. May the silver moon light our way forward."
Miss Lavallee held out her hand to Shade, but because she was only a sorceress and not a witch, she did not grab Shade's wrist but just shook it.
This lady has beautiful long black curly hair and is at the twelfth ring level, making her the highest-level person in the entire [Crescent Moon Secret Order]. However, Flora said that she was promoted only last year, so she is not that powerful among the twelve rings.
She looked to be around thirty years old, but thanks to the long lifespan of the Winged People, her actual age was definitely older than Emilia.
Shade wanted to meet them in order to learn about the news of his friends in the Fifth Era, so after a few pleasantries and sitting down by the campfire in the middle of the camp, Shade went straight to the point amid the crackling sound of burning firewood:
"I have learned from the witches what you have gained in the underground palace. You are very generous in giving away the bark in the stone box."
"Please don't say that. The secret treasure was not originally left to us."
Miss Lavallee said, holding a teacup, that the wings sticking to the back are not a big deal. Next to Shade sat Flora, and next to her was a girl with mermaid blood.
"The harvest in the underground palace is a matter between you and the Witch Council. It has nothing to do with me. I just want to know how much you know about the leader of the Fifth Era who left you the information about the treasure in the forest."
Mademoiselle Lavallee nodded her understanding:
"We know very clearly that she was a werewolf lady. The living conditions of werewolves in the Fifth Era were much worse than today, but the lady who chased the moon was able to ascend to the thirteenth ring level with her devout belief in the moon.
I have also looked into the lady's life information, but that era is too far away now. The only thing that can be confirmed is that her last name is 'Bister'. "
"Did she leave any legacy in the secret order?"
Shade asked, and Miss Lavallee nodded slightly:
"Among the inheritances we have, there is a magic called [Bister's Moon Gazing Technique]. This is a low-level magic with only passive effects. Once successfully learned, it can enhance the efficiency of meditation under the moon. But I can only be sure that this magic comes from the middle of the Fifth Era, and I cannot be sure that this is the legacy of Miss Bister.
After all, although this surname is relatively rare, it is not unique over a thousand years.”
When the witches contacted them, they told them in advance what the "God Caller" wanted to know, so Miss Lavallee had already prepared the information about the magic and gave it to Shade.
Although this is their unique inheritance, this gift is necessary, whether out of gratitude to the Witch Council for helping to discover the treasure or for the purpose of building a good relationship with the "God Summoner".
Shade thanked her for her generosity:
"So when you sorted out the 'treasure' these days, did you find any other information related to Miss Bister?"
Miss Lavallee shook her head regretfully:
"Not yet. Although the translation of the unearthed stone tablets is still in progress, it is basically confirmed that the contents recorded on them are only the secret arts related to the moon and the rumors of the Fifth Age. However, there is a stone tablet with words that we cannot translate at all. Even if you don't contact us, we will mention that stone tablet when we share the harvest with the Witch Council later."
She took out another photo and handed it to Shad. Since the stone tablet could be photographed by a camera, it meant that the content on it did not have any supernatural power.
The stone tablet was photographed very clearly, and Xia De's "knowledge of words" talent immediately came into play:
I ran across the snowfield, chasing the moon in the night sky. But when I came into contact with the path of demigods, I gradually realized what I should really pursue.
I am chasing the original moon in the long river of time. I am the one chasing the moon, and as long as time has not reached the end, I will keep running forward. Not for faith, not for power, but because I am a werewolf chasing the moon, this is my freedom, this is my destiny. 】
What was very strange was that the last sentence below this paragraph was not in the same language as the words above. Although Xia De could not tell the origins of the two languages, it was obvious that the last paragraph was more ancient:
[Shade, have you found your original moon? ]
There was a small paw print next to this sentence, which looked like it was left by Miss Bister.
"Miss Bister is not dead, she is definitely still alive now!"
Xia De smiled knowingly. This was his first thought after reading these contents. He looked left and right, expecting the gray wolf girl to jump out of the snow, but unfortunately he did not see her.
After learning about the story of Sibel Bist at the Alien Tree Academy in the Ash River Valley and the werewolf girl's determination to chase the moon, Shade was certain that she would be able to go further than most witches in the future.
Seeing this stone slab specially left for him, Xia De became more and more certain that the werewolf girl had indeed walked out her own path.
"Does she want to find the remains of the original moon like I do?"
【But her purpose is different from yours. 】
"She" said with a smile, and Xia De did not deny this:
"Yes, yes. Miss Bister has lofty ideals and goals, but I just want to meet that sage."
He continued to stare at the photo in his hand and read the words on it:
"She said that she was the Moon Chaser Tree Father who gave me the method to obtain the third core spirit rune, which was to 'fully understand one's origins and re-perform the rebirth ceremony at the place of birth'. One of the components of the rebirth ceremony was 'the hair of the Moon Chaser and devout faith'."
[Does the suspicion refer to her? ]
"Yes."
Xia De looked up at Miss Lavallee, who was in the 12th ring:
"I wish I had this slate."
He didn't say why, but the Winged Sorceress nodded directly:
"No problem. We have brought the stone slab with us. You can take it away directly. Is there anything else I can do for you?"
Xia De also put the photo into his pocket:
"Regarding Miss Bister's matter, I may contact you again in the future. As for now, I am actually very interested in the [Secret Order of the Crescent Moon]. Both you and I are ring sorcerers who use moon spells. Perhaps our communication with each other will be helpful to both sides."
Xia De was extremely confident about the "moon" aspect. Even if he was not the thirteenth ring as people imagined, he was confident that he would not reveal any flaws during the communication.
Mademoiselle Lavallee smiled:
"We dare not compete with you, but we are happy to exchange knowledge and insights with you. The secret order is not a very large organization, and the sisters gather together only because of their common belief in the moon."
Xia De nodded:
"We can communicate through the Witch Council through letters in the future. I hope everyone can gain something. But can you answer a question for me? Why is the name of your organization 'Crescent Moon'? What is the meaning of this?"
Mademoiselle Lavallee replied:
"One theory is that the three moons in the material world today were split, and the original moon only had the silver moon, so the moon we are chasing is the 'crescent moon'.
But I personally prefer this saying - the crescent moon represents the regret of failure to be complete.
We chase the moon, but we know that we can never catch up with it. This is a pity. But we will not give up chasing the moon because of this pity. The meaning of the "crescent moon" is to remind us, the moon chasers, of our original purpose. We are running for an impossible goal. This is our life and this is our destiny. "
“I’m actually always looking for a happy ending to the story.”
Shade said, and Miss Lavallee smiled:
"Regrets are also an important part of life, and I think even for you, there must be some imperfections in your life."
“Is my life incomplete?”
He now has a three-story apartment in the capital of the kingdom, a cute pet cat at home, and is respected by people for both his public and secret identities. The beautiful girls around him are willing to follow him and move forward, and they don't have to worry about their livelihood even if they don't work.
The only regret is that even if you have given up the original idea, even if you already know that this is your home, but the strangers always know that they have a hometown that they can never return to.
PS: I will finish this volume tomorrow, and update the free extra chapter of this volume as well.
