"Your maid Clara...has she become a witch?"
Shade asked, and the witch, who was also frowning and suffering from a headache, nodded:
"Yes, she is as talented as her twin sister, but her talent is a little less. The violent spirit just now is enough to support the awakening of the witch."
"Mia, are you okay?"
Shade hurriedly looked at the cat he had just held in his arms. He tried to turn the cat directly back into a toy, but was resisted by the cat - this kind of thaumaturgy requires complete trust and a little bit of resistance. All will fail.
Now when I looked at the cat, its orange and white fur became smoother and glossier. When Shade tried his hand, Mia lay lazily in Shade's arms and glanced at him, seemingly nothing happened.
The ordinary bard's eyes undergo slight changes, the witch becomes stronger, and the maid awakens. Shade, who also encountered sandstorms and witnessed incredible natural phenomena, certainly gained something.
[Outlander, your thaumaturgy—the Seaton Seal has changed. When casting a spell, you no longer need to pierce the sword into the ground. You only need to hold the sword and make the corresponding gesture, and you can move the position during the spell. At the same time, the intensity of "Seaton's Seal" is greatly increased. When using thaumaturgy to defend and counterattack, the power of counterattack is increased. 】
It can be said that the most convenient defensive thaumaturgy that Shade currently uses has undergone a qualitative change because of this change. Although Shade did not obtain new spiritual runes and thaumaturgy from this, he was satisfied enough.
"But what happened just now?"
He raised his head to ask the gods, and the traveler who was covered in dust asked:
"You will always encounter some incredible things during your journey. Does everything have to have an explanation? You are just travelers, not investigators, and not mystical scholars. Witness these scenery, not study them."
"It is our responsibility to witness the scenery of the journey and turn them into stories." The bard covering his eyes said unexpectedly, and the god smiled and nodded:
"You see, traveler under the moon, he already understands. Do you understand?" "I don't quite understand, but I don't have much time left."
Although it was just telling a story, time passed quickly, and the half-hour countdown had come to the end. "enough."
The god waited for the travelers to adapt to their respective powers, and then continued to tell the following story:
"The travelers huddled together to avoid the dust in the sky, but they also gained their own rewards. When the wind and sand stopped and you were finally able to look around, it was already evening. Those who are afraid of the power of the desert Travelers, follow your original plan and head towards the snow-capped mountains in the distance, and set up camp on the edge of the desert and snow-capped mountains. Thanks to the power of travelers under the moon, you are not affected by the severe cold here. But if you want to go deep into the snow-capped mountains, you must consider the wind. A test of snow and temperature.”
"Since you are leaving again, remember to think of a way to get us something to keep warm next time." The witch immediately said to Shade, who nodded in agreement:
"No problem. Since it was me who suggested coming to the Snow Mountain, of course I will find a way. I don't have much time left, so I will leave after the fourth night."
He looked at the maid in black dress who had just become a witch, and the latter reached out to turn over the cards. On the card, there was a scene from the small camp where everyone was currently. In other words, it was another peaceful night.
"According to the current progress and the time you stay here each time, the next time will be the end of the journey." The witch looked at the card, breathed a sigh of relief and warned Shade:
"The last three days of this journey will definitely not be that simple. Unexpected things may happen on the night of the last day of the journey. Clara and I, oh, and the bard over there, can only wait for fate now I still have to wait for the girl I'm looking for to reappear, but you still have a chance to make changes. Think about it carefully, maybe you can do something to help us."
"Yes, I understand."
Shade nodded, and the god smiled as he watched their conversation. The bard also hesitated and said to Shade: "Sir, the next time you show up, it will be
Can you bring me something? "
"What do you want?" Shade asked curiously. "Ink and pen and paper." "No problem."
Shade already has these things in his pocket. If they are just ordinary items, he does not even need to make additional preparations.
The thirty minutes have come to an end, and the interesting travel stories will be paused again. As the white mist swept in, Shade turned the cat into a toy and put it away. He stood up and walked towards the outskirts of the camp. After waving to his companions, he disappeared in the fog that only he and God could see.
The mist shrouded the forest under the deep night, and the crackling bonfire made the night even more lonely. The witch sighed softly and asked the god who had not yet disappeared:
"Excuse me, where do the travelers under the moon come from?" "The other side of time."
God did not hide this secret, and the witch just nodded slightly, which was also within her guess.
"Travelers, please rest for a while. This night is very long, but more than half of it has been spent. I hope you enjoy the story of this journey and gain something from it. Leaving here is not your greatest hope, is it?"
The figure of the god disappeared in the flickering light and shadow of the campfire, and some poor food appeared in front of the remaining three people. What followed was another long wait. The bard stood up consciously and sat on the other side of the bonfire, stroking the lute that the god had just played in his hand. He looked at the bonfire and missed his deceased relatives and his married childhood toys. companion.
The witch Andreana looked at the maid who was still a little confused because she was not used to the power: "Clara, how do you feel now?"
"I'm fine, miss."
The young witch looked at her maid, with a somewhat sad look in her eyes, but soon her look turned firm:
"We have reached the second half of the trip. I think there is a very important question that you must answer me: Have you always been jealous of your sister? Jealous of her power, jealous of her being able to get my favor?"
The young maid pursed her lips and looked at her master. The two looked at each other like this. The firelight made their shadows sway together on the ground, almost entangled together, but neither one spoke.
(Little Mia is running...)
"So, how did little Mia learn to breathe fire?"
Shade, who returned to the present time, immediately wanted to explore the secrets of the cat. After he walked out of the door, he took the cat out of his pocket. After turning into a real cat, he patted the cat’s little head:
"Mia, try again."
But the cat, who was squinting his eyes to feel the comfort of his home, had no intention of paying any attention to him. Luvia was still standing where she was when she said goodbye to Shad, and Iluna also came over from the kitchen:
"What happened to your cat, I mean little Mia?"
So Shade told about Mia's "superpower" that appeared again, but neither Luvia nor Iluna thought that spitting out sparks from the mouth was a major event worthy of attention:
"Relatively speaking, the ability to emit fire from the tail is a truly remarkable ability, and it has a very unique symbolism. Shade, didn't you take the course "Amazing Flesh and Flesh: Limbs and Ether" as an elective? You should learn it. And there is no exam in this course. You only need to submit an essay for assessment. You have missed the registration time this semester. I can remind you in the fall. Since its tail can catch fire, it is only a matter of time that you can master it by spitting fire from its mouth. Ability."
"Meow~"
The orange-white cat huddled comfortably in Shade's arms. Although Shade changed from a cat to a human again, it still liked Shade.
This was not the first time that Shade discovered the strangeness in Mia. Seeing that it was impossible to explain, he could only attribute it to the bloodline of the "Son of the Sun".
Afterwards, he shared the story of this adventure with the two girls. This adventure was not particularly exciting and did not involve serious battles, but it was still quite interesting.
The genie in the bottle, the river of death, the desert wonderland, the raging sand and the blazing sun, and the song played and sung by the god himself. These are all interesting stories that you won’t encounter under normal circumstances, even if you just listen to Xia
Once the description is given, the girls are already yearning for it. However, Luvia was more concerned about the Impermanence card, while Iluna was interested in the stories of her companions on the journey:
"The old knight's story is a bit like the fairy tale of "The Lovers of the Bell Tower", isn't it?" She asked Xiang Shade:
"Perhaps in the fairy tale, the young knight who was supposed to die on the front line also received help from the gods before he could return to the bell tower and reunite with his lover's bones. They even bonded together and never separated. The two became one, one body. Sharing the same heart…it’s so romantic.”
She showed a longing look, but Shade felt that Iluna's description was more like a horror story. As for the ending of the old knight, he could only say that everyone has the right to make a choice. This ending was actually not very bad for the old man.
As for the next "snow mountain trip" after using the key, Iluna also promised that this time she would get Shade the things he needs to keep the travelers in the story warm in the snow mountains. The Church of the Sun has many alchemical items that can do this, not to mention that Shade can also carry the fire of the sun in the attic. In the adventure of the Silver Mountains, he had already tried to bring warmth to people in the past. The only difference this time was that the coldness came from that story.
Luvia also had to go to work at the Prophet's Association, so she quickly left No. 6 Saint Teresa Square. And Iluna, who was deliberately left behind by Shade, also heard what Shade wanted to do in the study:
"Can you teach me the technique of the 'Power of the Earth·Earth Energy Cannon' that you used in Randall Valley?" "
