Chapter 3134 A Night Alone
"Three hours was beyond my expectation."
Shade nodded slightly:
"The rules of the transfer station seem to be like this. This is also my first time using the function here. Maybe I will find more applications here in the future. Britney, even if you can't reach my time again, I will find you. I'm just sorry to make you wait so long."
The yellow-haired witch smiled gently:
"What's there to apologize for? We are stronger than you, so we should apologize for not being able to reach you and take care of you. But you said that the first time you used the power here, you called me, right?"
She gave him a soft kiss:
"Just promise me, Shade, don't use the function of the [Time Corridor] just to see me. Crossing time itself is a miracle, and miracles are for you to use for serious things."
"It's a serious matter to meet you. I'm really sorry that the area of the transit station seems to be limited to this small room."
The witch snorted softly, feeling even more reluctant about the upcoming separation:
"Has anything else happened there since I left Vista Grove?"
"Everything is fine. All problems have been solved and everyone is safe. More than half a week has passed here, and I have returned home from the woods. What about you? After you returned to St. Byrons, did Miss Felena discover that you had been promoted to a demigod?"
Xia De also asked her, and Britney immediately smiled:
"Of course the teacher noticed. In fact, she noticed I was different right away after I went back. Different in every way."
Xia De heard her hint:
"So you don't have to try to make her aware of that?"
"Of course, the teacher's expression was very interesting. He pretended not to care, but his eyes were fixed on me. Fiona didn't understand anything and was talking to the side, but I could almost tell what the teacher was thinking just by eye contact. After all, I was the student who spent the longest time with the teacher."
Then she actually laughed out loud:
"I will remember that day. After all this time, I finally won over the teacher! Although the price was that the teacher ignored me for two whole days, and there were even outrageous rumors in the academy that the teacher and I were not getting along and that St. Byrons was going to split up, but it doesn't matter. After all, I won this matter."
"It's hard for me to imagine the kind of scenario you described. Teacher Feliana shouldn't have challenged you to a duel on the grounds that you were ready to become a disciple, right?"
Shad thought about what he had been through, but Britney didn't understand his question:
"No, your question is weird. But if she wants to use this as an excuse to test my demigod power, it's not impossible for her to fight me. I really need to be prepared."
"Isn't Teacher Feliana angry with me too?"
Shade asked again with some concern, and Britney answered without thinking:
"No, we all know that the teacher likes you more than me. She will only think that I forced you, so she will be angry with me. But you and I are both the teacher's students, we are the same generation, it is inexplicable that the teacher is angry~"
She hugged Xia De and said that she dared to say such things because Miss Feliana was not here, so Xia De did not comment on it.
"Then didn't Miss Felina ask you to explain the method of becoming a demigod? Even for your era, a thirteenth-level witch breaking through to become a demigod was a big deal, right?"
Xia De then continued to ask, and the yellow-haired witch shook her head slightly:
"I've only been back for three days. Although the teacher has started talking to me, I think she will have to hold back for a while before bringing up the topic. But with her wisdom, she should have guessed it. Oh, Fiona did ask me about my promotion in private, and I told her directly."
"what?!"
She smiled and narrowed her eyes:
"I'm just kidding. I'm not the kind of witch who likes to show off about this kind of thing. There were indeed some witches in our time who were very indecent, but that didn't include St. Byron's Witch Academy. I've heard people say before that witches outside privately call St. Byron's a 'nuns school', but that doesn't matter."
She embraced Shad:
"When Fiona asked me, I just said that you helped me. That girl missed you too. After she saw Wilder bring Emilia here, she regretted not participating in the exploration mission of the 'Strange Tree Academy'."
"We will definitely meet again in the future. You must persuade her not to think that she can see me just by running to a dangerous place."
"Shad, even though I'm her teacher, it's not like she can just obey me when I give her orders. The relationship between students and teachers is always delicate, and Fiona is not the kind of girl who doesn't have her own personality."
Although Miss Felina seemed a little angry with her, Brienne had indeed told her teacher most of what she had seen and heard in the Sixth Era. The violet demigod witch did not comment much on the story of time, but she was very interested in the "Crystal Light" puzzle lock of Shade described by Brienne, as well as the modern witch of time.
Although it is almost impossible for others to master Shad's maze, the magic of freezing time has been passed down since ancient times; as for Adele's matter -
"My teacher told me that the demigod Time Witch you summoned definitely did not simply come from the future."
Britney said softly.
"Yes, but for some reason, I can't tell others her specific origins."
Britney smiled and said:
"What you said is exactly the same as what the teacher said at that time. Okay, let's not always talk about other girls. Tell me more about yourself, Xia De, what have you done in these days since I left? I like to hear your stories, I want to know about your life."
The time after Britney left also included some stories with Danister, but since she liked to listen, Shad skipped some of the plots and told it carefully.
They didn't talk about anything else until the transfer station was about to close. And since they knew when to leave this time, the farewell was much more formal than last time.
"Let's set a date. Let's decide when I'll open the transfer station to see you next time. One month later? Three months later? One year later? Britney, you choose."
Shade said as he was sitting on the bed and adjusting his shirt. Britney shook her head as she looked at her clothes in the floor-length mirror Shade brought out from the cloakroom.
“No, please don’t give me hope.
Once we agree on a time, I will be worried about you if you fail to open the transfer station on time. And if we agree on a date, I will feel that I will never see you again before that time; but if we don’t agree, every night before I close my eyes, I will look forward to seeing you smile at me at the next dawn. "
"Britney~"
Shade stood up and hugged her, and the yellow-haired witch gently kissed Shade on the side of his face:
"I know you have the power to see me at any time, which is enough for me. When I go back, I will explain to the teacher why you chose to see me instead of her. Don't worry that the teacher will be angry with you. I even doubt that the teacher will never be angry with you. She is really partial."
She reached out to help Xia De straighten the collar of his shirt, then looked at his face very seriously, as if she wanted to take him completely into her eyes at this moment:
"You said there's no one else at home except you and Mia, so don't feel too lonely when you go back. I'll be thinking about you all the time. Good night, Xia De, and have a good dream."
"Good night, Britney, sweet dreams, and see you next time."
They closed their eyes and kissed each other, and when Xia De opened his eyes, the bedroom scene under the tipsy gas light had disappeared, and the surroundings turned into the white fog again. Of course, the girl in his arms had also disappeared.
With a long sigh:
"ended."
[Are you satisfied? Or, open it again? ]
"She" asked softly, but Shade shook his head. He raised his hand and shook it, feeling that after this tryst with Britney, he was full of energy again:
“There are still many things waiting for me to do in the future, and there are still many people waiting for me to appear again. I can’t indulge in the transit station anymore, otherwise what’s the difference between me and those people who go to Bennett’s transit station to make up for the past?
If I really miss them, I should find a way to get them here as soon as possible."
There are still 18 missions left for the Time Key, even if it means meeting Adele. But Shade doesn't plan to use these opportunities anymore, at least not in the short term. A short reunion will only make the longing heavier. Here, a tryst with the girls is just a "small dessert", but what the stranger really wants is a "big meal".
After walking out of the white mist behind the bedroom door, Shade saw Mia lying on the windowsill of the living room of Room 2, looking a little lonely. In winter, there was no clear moonlight in Tobysk, the "City of Steam", so the cat was not basking in the moonlight.
Hearing Shad's footsteps, the cat happily jumped down from the windowsill and pounced on him. When Shad picked up the cat and returned to the next room with it, looking at the empty house and the jumping flames in the fireplace, he actually felt a little lonely as Britney said just now.
"I remember that I used to like staying at home with my cat."
[Maybe you are used to having someone around you all the time. ]
I took a book from the study, made myself some tea and poured the biscuits from the biscuit jar onto a plate. I sat down in front of the fireplace and gently stroked the cat on my lap.
"Meow~"
The stranger opened the book and calmed down. His eyes moved from the night outside the window to the fireplace, and from the firelight to the letters on the paper in his hand. After returning home after a long absence, he was ready to spend this cold and ordinary winter night alone.
