[Seal of Heaton] is a very famous thaumaturgy of the Church of the Sun. Since that roll of parchment can be carried by a high-level warlock of the Church of the Sun, thaumaturgy is certainly not a simple thing.
Its naming method does not point to the inventor. "Hiton" is a rune in ancient language, which has the meaning of "immovable solid protection", so the "Hiton Seal" is also called the "immovable Seal".
Magic skills such as "Dharma Seal" mostly come from the extraordinary power of the Fourth Age. The Fourth Age is an era of darkness and terror. The material world is in constant war, cannibalistic alien creatures are running rampant, and dark species are enslaving the people. "Sigil" specifically refers to the need to use five fingers to make rune-like movements when casting a spell. Later, it was improved in the Fifth Age of Witch Era, and was integrated into the Ring Warlock system in the Sixth Age.
This thaumaturgy requires level 6 or above to learn. Casting does not require casting materials, but requires the caster to hold a sword as the casting medium, whether it is a physical sword like [Night Watch] or [Moonlight Great Sword]. All spiritual weapons are fine.
With one hand, insert the sword into the ground with an inclination of no more than 30 degrees under your feet. With the other hand, make the seal gesture of touching the thumb and middle finger, bending the little finger, and crossing the ring finger and index finger.
After activating the spirit rune, a circular golden shield will appear around the body. The shield can resist almost any form of attack. Of course, destiny attacks cannot be defended, and the strength of the "immovable seal" depends on the number of spirits. Even if the spell is released at the moment of being attacked, the broken metal shield will cause more powerful burst damage to the enemy.
Counterattacking requires good timing, which requires repeated practice. The only drawback of this precious defensive magic is that you cannot attack the enemy when casting the spell, and you must stand still. Wait until the opponent stops attacking before stopping the seal to counterattack, or use the right time to break the shield to counterattack.
"But even so, it's a pretty good thaumaturgy, and it's very useful to me."
Xia De said to himself, looking down at Xi's last request:
"[Sun], [Strength], [Shield], and [Gold], these four spiritual runes are okay, but they must be miracles or enlightenments, and cannot be whispers and blasphemies [Power]? Aren't they my low-level words of sublimation? The last spiritual rune?"
Shade has already included [Headon's Seal] in his to-be-learned list. His current thaumaturgy covers almost all aspects, but he lacks defensive thaumaturgy. This time it just makes up for the shortcomings. Only after entering the middle circle can he further adjust the spell-casting system.
After sorting out his harvest, at three o'clock in the afternoon, Shade and the cat went to Miss Carina's manor in a carriage. The witch was still waiting for Shade's story.
There are things you can tell Luvia, but you can't tell Miss Carina. But at least this time, Shade admitted most of the things, at least letting Miss Carina know that it was not Iluna who defeated Joey Barton in death, but him.
"Ha, I knew it must be you, otherwise you would have no reason to be there!"
Miss Carina was very happy to have her suspicion verified. She played with her red temples and listened to Shade's story about Wednesday night to Thursday morning. She also arranged afternoon tea and told Shade more details. The aftermath of the Battle of Fort Midhill.
The problem of Hazama was basically completely solved, and Iluna also brought news of the dead chosen ones, letting the church know that this quota belonged to the spiritual cult. Therefore, the most critical issue after the Battle of Mibao is not the next chosen one, but the identity of the thirteen-ring warlock "God Caller", and the sudden appearance of the two gods, and the fight on Mount Sikal, and then again The reason for his sudden departure.
Of course, some of the vampires who participated in the god-summoning ceremony were captured by the church. But the problem is that most of them don't know why the gods appear in the form of saints, let alone why they suddenly leave.
Of course, although the coming of the vampire god did not cause any damage at all except destroying some trees and rocks, the church still arrested those vampires on the charge of "organizing illegal rituals and using prohibited items" and waited for them will be the punishment of the Inquisition.
Every divine descending in the material world will be recorded in detail by the members of the Zhengshen Church and the Academy of Magic, and will be passed down as part of the history books. Shade was very curious about how this matter would be written. After all, theoretically, no one except him, Grace, and Helen knew the complete truth about this matter.
Even if he tells the truth, most people won't believe it unless he becomes a god and proves himself. The vampire god planned two eras, involving many gods, and indirectly affecting many historical events. In the end, it was not to subvert the Zhengshen Church, not to spread the faith, not to learn the secrets of the ancient era, but just to fail to get a cup. Blood wine, no rational person would believe this.
"According to the church, we are discussing whether to set last Wednesday as a special festival for Fort Midhill. Countless souls left the boundary between life and death under the guidance of gods, which in itself is worth commemorating."
The witch said as she tasted the afternoon tea, which brought this matter to a successful conclusion.
As for the serious injuries of Helen and Grace, they were well concealed with the help of Granny Cassandra and Sister Devlin. The actions of the two small red butterflies that night did not attract much attention. Except for the people at Cassandra Auction House, no one even knew of their existence.
"But isn't [Night Watcher] your sword? Why does the church think it is [Godcaller]'s sword?"
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun still hadn't set even in late autumn. Shade and Miss Carina were sitting at a round table on the terrace on the third floor of the manor. There were teapots and snacks on the table.
Mia was sleeping soundly on Shad's lap. Shad was lamenting that the weather was getting colder. Suddenly he heard the witch's question and immediately answered:
"Because it's difficult to explain who handed [Night Watch] to Iluna, so I asked her to think of me as the Godcaller."
"But according to the information I received, the 'God Caller' who appeared at the narrow church is indeed holding the [Night Watch]."
The witch asked again.
"Oh, that's because the church made a mistake. In the narrow room, they thought I was a God Summoner, and they thought I was deliberately suppressing my power, but in fact I am really just a three-ring warlock. As for the God Summoner."
Tifa poured new tea into Shade's teacup. Shade thanked her softly, and the black-haired maid smiled at him. Smelling Tifa's perfume again, Shade remembered the Friday breakfast again and kept his expression unchanged: "I guess the Godcaller has actually been in Sikal in the real world since Wednesday evening. On the mountain, wait for the blood-sucking earl to descend."
People always avoid mentioning the name of God directly, so "the vampire count" can refer to the blood god.
"That's true. It's indeed reasonable. But according to the church's description, your performance in the narrow room is really good. The power you exerted is at least that of a middle-level person who is about to be promoted."
The witch said again, seeing that she couldn't find any flaws in Shad, and Tifa stood next to Shad and handed him a napkin, so she smiled again and said:
"Get up. Tifa didn't come to see me immediately after she came back this morning. Instead, she went to change clothes. I think there might be something wrong with this."
"Miss, when I served Mr. Hamilton for breakfast this morning, I accidentally spilled breakfast on the skirt of my apron."
Tifa explained softly that of course she had lied, that the eggs were sprinkled in the wrong place, and that they were only steaming eggs.
"Is that so?"
The witch's fingers tapped on the table unconsciously, her eyes hovered on Tifa's chest, and suddenly asked: "Shad, are you satisfied with your breakfast?"
"Um?"
Shade was lost in memories of the early morning. Even though he couldn't control his expression, his face immediately turned red: "Satisfied, very satisfied."
Miss Carina shook her head with a smile: "The young knight and the young maid love each other, but due to the existence of the beautiful mistress, they can only provide simple comfort and cannot vent the fire in their hearts. Even in person with the mistress. Sitting across from each other, I could only use my eyes to communicate with the maid who was stealing sex, and at the same time, I had to try my best to please my true lover, and endured the pain and patience to be passionate about the two ladies. Tsk tsk, the knight storyline I just thought of is pretty good, isn’t it?”
Hers is definitely not a plot, otherwise Shade would still be very interested in reading this book.
[How about calling it "The Legend of Detective Knight"? A foreigner who has the grave sin of "indulgent love"~]
she asked with a smile, and seemed to be in a good mood.
Dinner at the manor was probably around seven o'clock, and there was still a long time before dinner, but they didn't talk about Fort Midhill anymore. Miss Carina suggested that since the weather was nice, she should go out for a walk. So he took Shade and the maids and rode around the nearby farms, introducing Shade to the usual sources of income of the manor outside the city.
Then, under the strong late autumn sunset, the red-haired witch proposed a horse race with Shade. The following servants, even Tifa who was holding Mia, could not participate. Only Shade and her walked along the country road from Little Hangleton Village back to the main entrance of the manor.
The horses' hooves sounded urgently, and there was no surprise. Of course, Xade lost. Even if Miss Carina deliberately controlled the speed, the equestrian skills of the noble girl who had received equestrian training since childhood were not comparable to Shade's.
But when he rode hard after the witch, watching the sunset fill the country road, watching Miss Carina's figure running towards the sunset, the scene was as textured as an oil painting, which was probably enough to make this " The gloomy autumn brings the most perfect ending.
There is a room specially reserved for Shade in the manor, and there is no shortage of clothes and daily necessities. Shade thought nothing would happen tonight, but after dinner, when he was chatting with Miss Carina in the study about tonight's dessert, which was the taste of the red sun berries shipped from Kasenlik, the door opened. There was a knock on the door.
Tifa went to open the door. The maid outside the door whispered to Tifa, and then Tifa returned to the sofa:
"Miss, Your Highness has arrived."
After that, he glanced at Shade. Shade thought that Miss Carina had business to discuss, so he picked up the cat and was about to get up, but the Duchess asked him to sit down: "Just let her come directly. The accompanying female officials will be arranged in one place." Accommodation in the building, a personal servant can come with you.”
Tifa responded softly and walked out of the room. Shade asked in surprise:
"Who's coming? Is it okay for me to be seen here?"
"Shade, what nonsense are you talking about? Now half, no, four-fifths of Tobesk are rumoring that you are my lover. Do you really care about the rumors if you show up in my manor? Is there any impact?"
Miss Carina said with a smile, then stood up, from sitting across the coffee table from Shade to sitting on Shade's left side.
Mia, who was lying on Shade's right side, felt the sofa vibrate slightly. She straightened her little head and looked around, then continued to lie down.
It was very full after dinner, so it needed to lie down and rest for a while to digest the food before it could catch up with Shade's late night snack.
Shade wanted to ask who was coming, but the witch who was very close asked again:
"You have been running around Fort Midhill all night. I don't think there will be any gains, right? Let me see what new skills you have."
Seeing her request, Xia De did not refuse. After thinking for a moment, he raised his right hand, with his palm facing downwards and his five fingers slightly bent. As some red shadows swayed on the back of his hand, not long after, a red butterfly appeared on the back of Shade's hand.
The butterfly swayed its wings slightly and stopped there very steadily. Shade gently shook his palm, and it flew close to the witch. After Miss Carina stretched out her right index finger, the red butterfly stopped on her finger, and the witch smiled brighter than the butterfly: "Very good."
The spell [Red Butterfly Illusion] is somewhat different from [Moonshadow's Illusion] which became invalid due to the awakening of Miss Fiona Drago. The latter comes from the power of Silver Moon, and focuses more on eliminating sounds and hiding forms at night, while [Red Butterfly Illusion] can not only be used at any point in time, but also focuses on creating various wonderful illusions.
Even though they are both illusions, there are actually very few similarities between the two.
Just as Shade was thinking about it, the door to the study room was opened. But the first person to walk in was not Tifa, but the red-haired, menacing-looking princess.
Lecia Cavendish was wearing a complicated princess dress, as if she was attending an important official event. The high heels made a dull sound on the carpet. After entering the door, just as he was about to speak, he saw Shade and Miss Carina sitting next to each other on the sofa. Of course, they also saw their intimate actions.
She took a deep breath, and for a moment, Shade thought she was holding the [Higgs Dragon Head Stone] in her hand, and they were all dragons on the sofa.
Fortunately, no dragon roar appeared at this time, because the Cavendish family is a pure-blood human family:
"Good evening, Shade."
The tone of this sentence is very gentle.
"Auntie, is this why you called me here tonight? To let me see Shade appear in your manor so late?"
This sentence is to suppress the anger.
Shade noticed that Lesia used the title "aunt", but usually she used the title "Miss Carina".
"Of course not. Didn't you recently obtain the logistics management rights of the New World Pioneer Corps? Saladir County plans to purchase the specialty aromatic flowers from the New World as alternative spices for a long time, so I want to talk to you about business. .”
The red butterflies on the witch's fingertips dispersed, and she waved for Lesia to sit down: "That's why I called you here. But it's already so late, so I don't think you need to return to Yodel Palace tonight. You can stay with me tonight." It's good here. Get up, little Lecia, since I returned to Tobesk this time, you have never stayed at my place.
Lesia calmly walked to the sofa and sat across from Shade. First she smiled and nodded to her, and then asked Miss Carina with a straight face:
"Since it's an important matter, why did you find me at this time? Isn't it good during the day?"
"In the morning I made an appointment with a private tailor to discuss winter fashion. I want to order a few new dresses. I don't plan to go back to Sarah Deer County this winter. In the afternoon, Shad and I talked about some private things and horse riding skills. I rode horses and had dinner with the knights, so I didn’t have time during the day.”
The witch smiled and motioned for Tifa to pour tea for Lesia:
"Lecia, you are a big girl now. Why, don't you still want to spend the night at home? Oh, I am very safe here and the bedroom is very comfortable."
"No problem spending the night here tonight."
Lesia looked at Shade again: "Why is he here?"
"Lecia, have you forgotten the royal courtesy? This is my friend, please be polite. And I have already passed it, it is a private matter."
Judging from her expression, the duchess was really happy at this time, because she asked again:
"I heard that Shade is also your friend? I think you should be very happy to see him here, right?"
Shade is very worried that Lesia and Miss Carina will fight. Judging from the current situation, this is definitely not impossible.
"Oh, ladies, please listen to me."
So for the sake of Lesia's safety, as well as the safety of himself and Mia, Shade still spoke:
"Lecia, I'm here to talk to Miss Carina about Fort Midhill. I'll be there on Wednesday."
Her Royal Highness the Princess's face changed, but she felt relieved when she saw that Shade didn't look injured: "I knew you would definitely go to Fort Midhill again for some inexplicable reason."
"Besides, I will also spend the night here tonight. I will sleep in the guest room on the third floor. Don't worry, it's just me and Mia in the room."
Shade picked up the cat next to him. The water-like cat stretched its body as it was picked up. He squinted his eyes and saw a familiar human being, and said "meow~" to Lesia as a greeting.
"Since you have something to talk about, I will avoid it for now. However, if you have time in the evening, I would like to talk to you. There is something very important to do."
Shade said, then stood up.
Miss Carina said: "But Lecia can't spend the night in your room. If my nephew knows that his daughter slept with his aunt's lover when he spent the night at his aunt's house, Diana's next tea party will definitely be I won’t be invited.”
But this sentence did not make Lesia angry. Her Royal Highness the Princess picked up the tea cup in front of her with a reserved smile, and even did not forget to thank Tifa:
"If I want to spend the night in Shade's room, there's no point in waiting until now. Detective, what's glowing about you?"
"Um?"
Shade looked down and saw that something in the inner pocket of his coat was glowing. After unbuttoning it, I discovered that the page of the manuscript used for contacting the hospital was prompting information.
Unrolling it, a new roll of parchment was delivered. After reading the above text, Shade was a little surprised and said:
"Miss Danister asked me to use a ritual projection to the hospital library as soon as possible."
"Danister? That thirteen-ring warlock?"
Miss Carina was very surprised: "You were in St. Byrons, didn't you just teach by correspondence? You actually know the librarian of the college? Since it is a projection ceremony, Tifa, go and help Shade prepare, don't delay things. "
Shade said goodbye to the two ladies, and then hurriedly followed Tifa out of the study.
Miss Carina looked at Shade's leaving figure and suddenly asked:
"Lecia, what do you think of Shade?"
