Chapter 3314 Effective Divination
"Why are you staring at me?"
The beautiful witch asked teasingly. Shade stood with her and looked out the window at the setting sun through the glass door of the courtyard:
"After arriving on this island, it seems that I am busy doing various things every day. It is really rare to be so leisurely like this. I wonder what kind of story would happen if I really came here as an ordinary tourist, woke up from the Harpoon Hotel every day listening to the sound of the waves, and then traveled around the island with a backpack."
Claire Rhinehart smiled as she held her glass of wine:
"This way, you won't have the chance to stand here and chat with me."
Shade shook his head:
"Then imagine this scene: I am walking on a path in the snowy mountains, carrying a backpack and playing with the cat on my shoulder. After climbing up the cliff against the wind, I raise my hands to block the sunlight in front of my eyes. But in the direction of the rising sun, I see a girl with long platinum-blonde hair, standing alone on the top of the snowy mountain with her hands behind her back, looking at the sky."
Before she could express her opinion, Shade continued:
"Or, I was walking in the bustling crowd of the town holding the smoked fish I just bought. When I looked up by chance, I saw you standing by the railing of the long bridge outside the Snow Mountain Hall, holding your face as if you were bored and waiting for someone. So you saw the people holding paper bags in the crowd, and I saw you tilting your head under the blue sky."
He concluded:
"According to the fortune tellers, if our meeting is part of some kind of destiny, then even if I came to the island not for that evil demon, you and I would have met anyway."
He even joked:
"And with your looks, it's hard for me not to take the initiative to notice you."
Claire Reinhart felt that a certain emotion in her heart was about to be uncontrollable:
"Now I finally believe that you are really a travel writer."
Actually, it is not like that. The stranger is just a detective, and he happens to have a good eloquence.
"But think about it carefully. If I hadn't met you on this island, I would have been in trouble many times. You always save me at the most critical moment."
Shad pointed out:
"When you were in danger several times, I felt that the spirits near the snow mountain had changed abnormally. Even if I hadn't shown up, you probably wouldn't have died directly. This snow mountain would have protected you. And after you have encountered danger once and survived, I think the parliament would have sent the Great Witch to help you, instead of just letting Flora come quietly to check on you."
She held the wine glass in one hand and lifted the hair hanging down on the side of her face with the other hand:
"It's only been a week since I met you, but it feels like several months have passed since so many things happened during this time, and all this is just the beginning of another story."
She asked softly:
"I have asked this question before, but now I want to ask it again: Mysterious Mr. John Watson, why did you stay to help me? Is it just because I took the initiative to hire you? With your abilities, there are many things you can actually do on your own initiative instead of coming to me every day."
Shad replied:
"It was indeed because of your employment at the beginning, but now there is a new reason: I feel that you may be in danger again in the future, and I will still need to help you then."
They all laughed. The witch shook her hair and raised her cup to signal Shade to clink glasses:
"So if you can successfully deal with the ancient evil spirit on the island, will you leave here immediately afterwards?"
"will not."
The two tall glasses clinked together, but neither of them looked at the glasses:
"I will stay until all the problems here are resolved."
"There's a chance I can't afford to pay you for that long. You said you were expensive."
Her eyes sparkled as she stared at Shad, expecting some sort of answer.
"I don't need expensive compensation, I just want a thank you."
"Is that all? Why not."
The cup was not put to her lips, and she moved slightly closer to Shade. The guilt in the evil stranger's heart almost reached its peak at this time, and just when he was about to break the agreement with the girls and decided to reveal some things first, the girl in front of him did not kiss him, but put a yellow gem in his hand:
"Then add this to your reward."
She was satisfied to see the embarrassed and stunned expression on Xia De's face:
"I have mastered the unique technology of imprinting thaumaturgy spells into gemstones. This gemstone contains a clone of me, a clone of the sun. This is one of the most powerful gems I can make. Once activated, it can allow my clone to help you fight. I think this should be enough to hire you for a while longer."
"Yes, it is."
She smiled and nodded, then handed her wine glass to Xia De:
"That's good. Take this, I'll go to the kitchen and ask if dinner is ready for today."
As he said this, he turned around and was about to go to the kitchen of Snow Mountain Hall, but at this moment he suddenly turned around and kissed Xia De on the cheek.
Even though Shade was holding the wine glass in both hands, he couldn't stop her, so the witch with platinum blond hair said with her hands behind her back:
"This is a gift in addition to the reward. When I saw your expression just now, I knew that something was not just my wishful thinking. It's good that it's not unrequited love. I'm afraid of this."
"I"
"I know you have other secrets in your heart, but I also believe that you will tell me sooner or later. Flora, Vanessa and Sylvia seem to want to laugh at me, but I want to let them know the consequences of letting a cat guard dessert."
She smiled elegantly and walked towards the kitchen, leaving Xia De holding two wine glasses and watching her back.
By turning the active into the passive, she proved to Shade that the witches of the Sixth Era were still very capable.
Danister asked Emilia to go back before 8 o'clock in the evening, so Emilia wanted to stay on the island for dinner. Although there are many glaciers and snow-capped mountains in the Far North, the scenery of Fatumunster Island is very different from the Great Ice Cap in the Far North.
Emilia liked this place very much, and while waiting for the meal to finish, she even told Xia De that she wanted to bring little Lianna here to take a look.
"Who is little Lianna?"
Miss Larson, who had been with the elf girl the whole afternoon, asked curiously, and Emilia immediately perked up:
"She's my friend, a young unicorn. She and I have the same birthday, and we've known each other since we were little! She's very, very, very cute and obedient, and has been on many adventures with me, and we've faced many powerful enemies together. Although she's a little unhappy recently because I asked her to lose weight, she's still a very cute child."
Unicorns have a longer lifespan than modern elves, so little Lianna, who has the same birthday as her, is still a child, and even if Emilia doesn't travel through time, she is only three years away from adulthood.
"A young unicorn."
Miss Larson showed an envious expression. Such cute creatures indeed had an extraordinary appeal to everyone.
After having dinner in the Snow Mountain Hall, Emilia said goodbye to the injured unicorn Ellie before leaving with Shade. However, it was still early, so she was not in a hurry to return to the academy, so she planned to stay at Shade's house for a while.
But when they returned home, they found that the lights in the house were on. When they reached the second floor, they found that the house was very lively tonight. Luvia, Carina, and Dorothy were all there, and the maids made the originally quiet night warm and busy.
Emilia looked around and was relieved when she was sure that her princess friend was not there. She greeted the ladies politely and was called by Luvia to sit next to her.
When Shade came out of the bedroom after changing his clothes, they were sitting on the sofa listening to the elf telling about the injury of the Snow Mountain Unicorn. During the examination and treatment, Emilia collected some hair of the unicorn Ellie, wanting to take it back so that the unicorn population in St. Byrons could identify her scent and try to find her tribe.
"Since Emilia is here too, why don't I divine the origins of the unicorn? Maybe I can find something."
Luvia then put forward her own suggestion. She still used her most skilled card divination method. After using the Keeper-level relic [Mercury Echo] obtained from the team mission to hold the divination cards, the effectiveness of those divination cards was further enhanced.
After obtaining the small handful of unicorn hair that emitted white light, Luvia spread the white cloth with the divination ritual painted on it on the coffee table, and then shuffled, stacked, and cut the cards in one go. The last 108 divination cards were cut into three stacks. Seeing that the others were also very interested, Luvia motioned for Shade to go first:
"Since you discovered the unicorn, you should go first."
Xia De opened the "Ice and Snow" in the center of the first stack of cards.
"Then it's Emilia's turn. Please ask the Chosen One of Time to look back to the past and give the second clue."
Luvia spoke in a chanting voice, and Emilia turned over the second card from the top of the second deck, the reversed "Time".
The fortune teller nodded slightly, then looked at Dorothy, and the writer smiled and held out her hand:
"As the chosen one of this space, I will be the one to do the final finishing, right?"
She snapped her fingers, and the last card of the third deck was directly transformed onto the table. The card showed a figure crossing a ravine. This card was usually called "Trial", which meant "bold attempts, uncertain experiments, and crazy adventures".
Luvia summed it up:
"So the unicorn came from a place related to ice and snow, which it said itself; the reason for its sudden appearance involves some kind of daring adventure, but it is also related to time. Since there has never been a legend of a unicorn on Fattomunster Island, could it have come from across time and space?"
PS: Try making the second version of "Luvia". Do you think this one fits the temperament of Miss Fortune Teller?
