Whispering Verse

"I won, help me recover!"

"Oh, be patient. I have to treat you first, otherwise you will return to your adult form. Can you imagine how serious your injuries are?"

The puppets on the upright puppet stage were mumbling. As they spoke, green light spots appeared on the body of the puppet Shade. The wooden body grew and healed like a living piece of wood. Then in another thick white fog, Shade returned to his adult form and lay on the coffee table. Even his damaged clothes were restored.

He looked at his palms with joy and jumped up from the coffee table. Miss Benenice looked at him in shock with wide eyes. When Shade was still a puppet just now, the strange feeling was not obvious. Now that he has fully recovered, she immediately understood what was strange.

Shade had already taken over his cat and had time to look at the local witch.

Miss Vanessa Benenice is wearing a red dress. Her long blond hair is waist-length and has a natural curvature. With golden eyes with a hint of green light, this is a beautiful blonde lady in the most traditional sense.

Although it was clear that she was in her thirties, she looked even younger than Miss Lassers beside her. Her fair face is neither big nor small, her small mouth is painted with lipstick, and her extremely three-dimensional facial features show a confused look like a girl. The silver star-shaped earrings on her ears further highlight her charm.

The great witches all have extraordinary beauty. Although I have met several great witches, I have to admit that the ninth seat of the Witch Council, the witch of the earth, Vanessa Benanis, has a personality that is different from other witches. charm. Especially the right sense of tenderness on the face makes this charm even more.

[It’s not a feeling of weakness. Siris Grand Lassus is right. There is indeed something wrong with this witch’s condition. 】

Why the witch is "sick" will be discussed later. While Miss Benenice was staring at Shade, Shade sat down on the sofa on the side and asked the puppets on the puppet stage:

"The puppet show is over. According to the agreement, you need to restore all the people who were recently turned into puppets by you."

"Of course, I am very satisfied with this puppet show. The devil riding a dragon and the knight riding a cat, why haven't I thought of such an interesting plot before?"

The bandaged puppet said, looking at him with shiny black button eyes:

"Beloved of the God of Toys, since you have completed this drama, I think I should give you a reward."

With that said, the "Heart of the Forest Giant", "The Ring of the Evil Wizard" and "The Long Sword of the Royal Knight" appeared together on the puppet stage. Of course, the sizes of the three are suitable for normal humans, that is to say, they are actually heart-shaped rubies, normal rings and normal swords:

"A gem that enhances power, a ring that continuously summons fireballs, and an extremely sharp sword. Choose one as a gift."

The puppet laughed and said.

Although it seems reasonable, a relic is a relic after all. Although Miss Lassus, Miss Bernice, and Shade seem to be fine, they are not ordinary people, and the effects of the relics have mostly ended. You know, behind the sofa, Miss Bernanise's servants and several waiters from the opera house were still lying there unconscious.

All three items are relics. It is not known whether the puppet made them by itself or whether they were collected and stored by it over the years. Shade made his choice after just a moment of consideration.

"I don't want any of it."

He shook his head slightly. Judging from the whispering elements and functions, the three relics were at most secretkeeper level. He still remembers why he came to the Wilde Opera House today:

"This witch is looking for you recently, for her secret lock - the golden stage of Acura Glory."

Shade pointed at Miss Benanis. This is the information he got from Miss Carina and the others:

"If possible, I hope you can give her some help so that she can make her Mystery Lock stronger."

The puppet smiled and nodded:

"No problem. You and I performed an interesting puppet show. This is completely acceptable. I can't let God call me stingy."

As she spoke, Miss Bernanise's puppet and the disk above her head actually floated out from behind the curtain next to the puppet stage. Of course, the puppet is just a puppet now, with the whispering element attached to it. The puppet floated into Shade's hands, and Shade understood that it would definitely be of great use to Miss Benenice:

"really thankful."

He sincerely expressed his gratitude, and the puppet waved his hand:

"Then, may the guardian of innocence always protect you. This time is really interesting. The other living people in this city that I turned into puppets will soon recover. See you next time."

It was very happy and wanted to leave, but it seemed to have remembered something. It sat on its own puppet stage, and while the curtains on both sides slowly closed towards the center, it said to Shade with a smile:

"Speaking of which, do you know why I appear in this human city?"

"Why?"

Shade asked cooperatively, knowing that the other party just wanted to tell him the answer.

"The crazy puppeteer of the Fourth Age created this theater and split a small part of his soul to form my foundation. And now, the crazy puppeteer's notes have appeared in this city, and I am I wanted to get it back, but now it seems that by keeping it in human hands, you can have more interesting drama.”

The blood-red curtain closed, and the color of the solid wooden puppet stage faded little by little, disappearing like the pencil mark on the paper being erased by an eraser.

Shade opened his mouth and understood immediately:

"The angelic relic [Puppet Operator's Notes] comes from the same maker as this puppet. [Puppet Operator's Notes] has always been in the hands of the [Blood Spirit School]."

The story of how it all started is related to that relic. A mere page of notes nearly caused the stranger to die under the summer vines.

"The thirteenth-ring warlock Hermons the Bloodweeper escaped his life only after being seriously injured in Ivan Darkness's 'Darkness Coming' incident, which caused the entire [Blood Spirit School] power to shrink in the Old Continent. Now. , [Blood Spirit School] actually sent someone with at least one piece of paper to Randall Valley City. What is going to happen here?"

This also means that at least one of the selected candidates is related to the local area, and it is very likely that he will appear in the near future.

While Shade was thinking, the puppet stage had completely disappeared. But neither Miss Lassers nor Miss Bernice spoke, because they both saw the black iron-colored aura rushing towards Shade at the point where the puppet stage disappeared, and the thick steam mist started from behind Shade. Gush out, the black shadow of the huge life ring keeps approaching from the depths of the steam mist.

[Outlander, you have come into contact with whispers. 】

[In ancient times, crazy puppeteers walked in the chaotic material world, just to find and stage the most perfect drama in their minds. But in the end, he understood that the best stage is this world, and the best puppets are all mortals. 】

[Relic-Crazy Puppet Theater, giving you new powers. 】

As the clear brass ring behind him rotated rapidly, the black iron-colored aura almost connected into a halo. The aura was enriched and the whispering power obtained from the relic added Shade's first of five rings to his life ring. A spiritual rune.

[Outlander, you have engraved the black iron whispering spirit rune-Puppet. 】

This is a spiritual rune belonging to the middle ring. When the life ring slowly decelerates, the strange rune is so dazzling. Miss Benanis and Miss Lassers were not surprised that Shade had obtained the spiritual rune. After all, his contact with the relic just now was indeed very in-depth.

What surprised them was that Shade didn't lie. He really only had five rings.

"Can puppets and silver moon be related to the language of sublimation?"

Shade thought silently in his heart and let the life ring disappear behind him. The opera at the opera house was still not over yet, but the box suddenly became quiet, causing the three people who were awake at this time to look at each other.

The witch reacted the fastest. Although Shade saved her, this lady with long blond hair, who was considered the best opera singer and singer in the past century, still immediately asked what she wanted to know most. question:

"Are you a man after all?"

"man."

Miss Benenice only said half a sentence before Shade gave her answer.

The witch's green eyes looked at Shade in disbelief:

"This is absolutely impossible!"

She frowned slightly, her voice rose, and her tone was a little harsh. Miss Lassers on the side didn't know what was going on and tried to persuade her;

"Vanessa, Mr. Hamilton just saved us, you."

"Sirius, please don't speak now. I won't do anything to him, but you don't understand what is before us and what it means to the Council if he is indeed a man!"

Shade understood Miss Bernanise's current mood very well. He held Mia with one hand and took the initiative to stand up from the sofa on the side and came to the witch. He gave her the witch's puppet and stretched out his wrist to her.

"please."

"you"

The witch held the puppet. Although she was surprised, she still stretched out her hand to hold his wrist in response to Miss Lassers's incredulous expression:

"Vanessa, have you been exposed to men?"

The blonde witch and Shade maintained a strange posture. For a long time, the witch's white nose flapped, showing her emotional fluctuations. She took the initiative to let go of Shade, and then looked at her palm in disbelief:

"This is wrong! This is impossible! Hamilton, what the hell are you?"

Suddenly, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Shade:

"Hamilton? Shad Hamilton?"

"Yes."

"Carina Cavendish's lover?"

"Yes."

After getting the definite answer, the witch, who was still a little excited, immediately slowed down a lot. Obviously, if she was not the first witch to discover the "man" in front of her, then the matter would not be as serious as she thought:

"You actually exist? I thought she asked her maid to disguise herself as a man to frustrate those suitors."

The blonde witch murmured softly, sighed slightly, and leaned back on the sofa.

"Sorry, what happened?"

Miss Lassers on the side still didn’t understand:

"Vanessa, why did you take the initiative to touch Mr. Hamilton? Since the Duchess is a witch, why?"

"He's different."

The blonde witch still stared at Shade and said something that she couldn't even believe:

"This man is not within the coverage of the witch's curse. The witches can have normal contact with him."
