Chapter 3362 Searching on a Snowy Day
Fate seemed to reveal its complete context to Shade at this moment. But when Shade wanted to touch it, he found that it was just like reflections in the water:
"Anyway, the most important thing for me in the near future is to visit the Ice Castle for the second time next week to find a direction for the next investigation. Of course, there are also the three angel-level relics on the island that affect fate. I think after our actions today, they will probably play a role again. Oh, and there is also the matter of ink."
He mentioned the ink formula he had learned from Professor Rhinehart and Mr. Sargent, the "potion merchant":
"Fourteen of the eighteen components are common. Carina, please help collect them. Luvia, you need the special properties of human blood in the divination ink components, as well as the specific production process. I know this is difficult, but it is necessary.
I already have the Serpentine Stone, and I can only try to find the precious herb, the Lacrimal Fern, myself. And the Philosopher's Stone. Since the Philosopher's Stone is going to be added, the final ink should not be useless. "
Dorothy began:
"Let Luvia and I work together to figure out the ink process. I've studied the preparation of mineral pigments before, and I've made a lot of special inks myself."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
"Shad, don't say that. You're the one who's working the hardest."
The writer said gently that although Luvia knew that Shade was working hard, she still assigned him a task:
"Although tomorrow is Saturday, you still have to go to Fattomunster Island in the morning. Claire Rhinehart will definitely be confused after suddenly knowing so many things, and you need to comfort her. It's okay even if you can't make it back to attend the group meeting tomorrow afternoon. Dorothy and I will ask for leave for you."
Shade also knew that Claire needed to have a detailed talk with him, and he needed to apologize to her for his previous lies:
"No problem. It feels like I'm doing some shady job."
The girls all laughed, and Luvia grabbed Shade's hand out of guilt.
As for the subsequent chain reaction that might be caused by the appearance of the God Summoner on the island, not many people talked about it. After all, this was not the first time. However, Luvia told Shade that if he found a suspicious person who might have three angel-level fate relics, he must kill them immediately without mercy. This was what she was most worried about.
They didn't talk in the living room until very late. They went to rest when it was almost time. After all, Xia De had been busy all afternoon and had to get up early the next morning to go to the island.
However, night activities still had to take place, and Dorothy, in a daze, discovered that Luvia, out of guilt or other thoughts, actually did the same thing with Shad that he did with Chloe.
Then she found that Shad's hand was reaching out to her. There was nowhere to hide, so she and Karina were caught by Shad, and then they played the game together reluctantly.
"You are so gentlemanly and considerate in daily life, why do you...
The blonde complained afterwards, and was mocked by the princess for "saying one thing and thinking another." They both knew each other's thoughts. Leisia even "threatened" her:
"Tomorrow is Saturday. If you 'complain' like this, be careful that Shade will do the same tomorrow. Have you forgotten what happened to everyone on the night of the year-end festival? Shade is even more powerful now than he was then."
The writer blushed:
"So what? If the others are not here and I'm alone, Xia De can do whatever he wants."
She communicated with Leicia, then gently patted the back of Shad's head in front of her, asking him to be gentler.
A strange thing happened that night. After falling asleep, Shade fell into the dream of doomsday again. He originally thought that the long-haired girl had something to say to him, after all, a candidate for fate had been confirmed today.
But when they arrived at the rooftop covered with yellow sand, the long-haired Luvia just smiled and hugged him, and then kept praising Shade for doing a good job. When Shade wanted to know what good things he had done, the long-haired girl was mysterious and refused to say:
"You'll know later, Shad. I know you can do it. We can't meet often. Let's meet again next time after you have seen Adele in her past life."
After that, she gave him a kiss and pushed him out of the dream. So Shade opened his eyes at three in the morning, curious about what the long-haired Luvia was excited about, and only managed to fall asleep again half an hour later.
As for what made Long-haired Luvia excited, it was naturally because an old rival had joined the game, and this time she still had the upper hand. This time Luvia Annat handed over everything to Shade. Since the old rival had joined the only "game" she had participated in in the Sixth Era, she would of course have a good time:
"Adele, Adele, you were the one who took the initiative to provoke me this time. I was just passively fighting back."
When I woke up on Saturday, I saw the sky outside the window was gloomy. When Shad had breakfast and arrived at Fatumonster Island, he found that it was snowing on the island:
“It’s snowing again.”
Emilia will not appear on the island today. On the one hand, it is because Danister believes that elves cannot leave the academy every day. On the other hand, she was seen by the church yesterday, so she has to avoid suspicion and show some respect to the church.
But today, Shad brought the healing potion that Emilia prepared for the next course of treatment for Unicorn Ellie. If nothing unexpected happens, Emilia will come again next Monday.
Although the elf didn't come, Mia was brought out by Shade. The cat and Shade watched the snow getting heavier and heavier. When they entered the town of Kell-Todd, the moderate snow was about to turn into heavy snow.
Also because of the bad weather, the town seemed a little deserted even though it was Saturday.
Before going out early in the morning, Carina smiled and suggested that Shad bring a gift to Claire, but Shad did not do so.
He came to the Snow Mountain Hall empty-handed, and found only a unicorn eating an apple and the girls taking care of it in the unicorn Ellie's nest. Ellie stood up excitedly when she saw Shad, and insisted that Shad play with her for a while before letting her leave - Mia wanted to intimidate it, but the cat was suppressed by Shad's fingers.
The room where Miss Larson rested yesterday was also empty. She probably felt much better and stopped living here. Later, when she finally met Elder Ursa who came to the Snow Mountain Hall to do business, the only eleventh-ring female elder didn't know where Claire had gone:
"I haven't seen her today. What's wrong? Are you young people having a conflict?"
Xia De nodded and shook his head, and Elder Ursa smiled knowingly. Elders can always know a lot of things through a few details:
"If there is a conflict, explain it clearly. Don't keep silent. There is a new herbal medicine shop opened right below the Harpoon Inn. Harald should be there now. Go ask him."
This herbal medicine shop is a new shop opened by Mr. Sargent, a "potion merchant" in the town. He recruited some apprentices in the town to take charge of the general business, and contacted his old friends to inform them of the new address of the shop.
There weren't many people in the newly opened store on a snowy day, and when Shad entered the door, Elder Harald was indeed there.
"Mr. Watson, Mr. Mortis wrote me back this morning. He said he can meet you on Tuesday afternoon. The specific time and place are here."
When Mr. Sargent, who had not yet recovered from his serious illness, stood with Elder Harald, Shad could clearly feel that the younger potion merchant looked even weaker. However, he used to have a strong addiction to smoking, but now that he was injured and could not smoke, maybe he could take this opportunity to quit smoking.
Shad thanked Mr. Sargent politely, and then asked the elder beside him about Claire's whereabouts.
The old man in the horned hat glanced at him:
"Claire was in a very bad mood after you left yesterday. So I persuaded her to go back to her parents' house. You can go find her there."
The old man actually had a better impression of Shade, the strange guy recognized by the snow mountain, than he did of Professor Reinhardt back then. But when he saw so many young and beautiful girls surrounding him last night, Elder Harald realized another thing:
"If he's so good, how could he still be single?"
However, the elder did not blame Xia De for anything, but patted him on the shoulder:
"Don't bully Claire, or I'll show you that old people can be angry too."
Shad could only nod with a stern face. When he looked at Mr. Sargent, the latter immediately turned his head away, obviously not wanting to be involved in this matter.
Then Shade braved the snow and took the cat to the Reinhardt's house in the center of the town. After knocking on the door, it was Professor Reinhardt who opened it. Shade was too embarrassed to go in:
"Is Claire home?"
The professor looked at Shad's shoulders, which were stained white by the snow, and then at the cat sticking its head out from his chest. He sighed and said:
"Last night, after she came home, she talked with her mother in the bedroom until 2 a.m., and I had to sleep in the guest room all night. Did you have a conflict? No, you don't need to explain to me. I can now understand my father-in-law's feelings more and more.
Claire had breakfast this morning, reunited with her student and left."
"Professor, did she tell me where she went?"
"She said she wanted to walk around the island to relax, but it snowed so heavily today and her mother was worried about her and didn't let her go out. So Claire changed her mind and said she wanted to go to the city to buy some things at the black market before tomorrow's 'Crown of Glory' ceremony. She left about an hour ago, and I don't know if she is still in the city or on her way back."
In order to avoid missing it, Shade did not throw the crystal slipper home and then return to the island, but returned to the city along the road connecting the Wheel of Time City and the town. Although there was more than one black market in the city, Shade went to the one under the clock tower first.
