Whispering Verse

"It's definitely not the power of time. I didn't feel the fluctuation of time."

Shade handed the brooch to the witch, who accepted it with interest. Then he walked towards the direction where the unicorn left. At a certain location, the unicorn's hoofprints suddenly disappeared, and it probably flew into the distance at low altitude.

Keep chasing forward and all traces disappear. The witch then used the casting material - her own small stone statue - to perform a high-circle thaumaturgy to directly sense the moving objects in the entire forest, but the elves and unicorns were still missing:

"There is reason to believe that they have left the Randall Valley. But this is not true. Unicorns do not fly that fast."

"Maybe it's the power of space?"

Xia De also didn’t know the reason why the other party disappeared:

"But it looks like she is a student at St. Barons Comprehensive College. The cloak she is wearing, I have seen in St. Barons. It is not a college uniform, but I have seen similar styles. And , St. Byron's, it has always been the elves' responsibility to care for the unicorn population."

Shade had seen a similar cloak when he took a carriage to St. Byrons last time. Miss Danister mentioned the situation in St. Byrons to Shade during a chat.

The witch nodded:

"Your guess is right. The earth told me that she is not a child of the southern land. She is a child of the far north glacial land. She was born in the far north."

The witch gave her own guess:

"That elf girl is a student of St. Byrons. Through some unknown method, the underage unicorn came here first. She found out that the unicorn was missing, and then found it."

"From the far north to the Randall Valley? Across the entire Old World? It's really interesting. What is the method?"

Shade looked around in the moonlight, but found nothing.

"It doesn't matter, as long as they are not enemies. If the other party is really a student of St. Byrons, she should be the one who has the headache. Once she is found to have left the college without authorization, the punishment will not be as simple as repeating the grade."

After the blonde witch finished speaking, she sighed sadly:

"I originally thought that I could get a unicorn. That's right. The largest population of unicorns in the material world is indeed in the three major colleges."

"Let's go back. It's three o'clock now. We can rest for a while after returning to the city."

Shade quite understood the witch's mood. It was as if he expected Miss Gold to give up Mia to him, but in the end he found that the lady refused to agree.

"What was I thinking? It's really unlucky."

He quickly threw away this thought.

"Okay, Shade, let's go back."

She nodded slightly, but this time, she directly called Shade by his name.

"Speaking of which, since you can sense the birthplace of an individual, then my birthplace is."

"North Central Old World."

This is consistent with the background investigated by St. Byrons.

(Iluna is praying.)

It was five o'clock in the winter morning in Tobesk on Tuesday, and the land was still shrouded in the deep darkness of the night.

On Quill Street, the blonde girl was wearing pajamas and sleeping soundly on her bed. Suddenly I heard a cat meowing and opened my eyes, only to find that little Mia stood up on the pillow and looked at the window, and there seemed to be a black shadow outside the window.

With a slight hook of her fingers, the curtains opened automatically, and then Dorothy saw Shad squatting on the sill outside the window and smiling at her.

"Oh, Shade, what are you doing?"

Half surprised and half annoyed, the writer hurriedly opened the window and let Shade in.

"Didn't you say that when I come back, I will come to you as soon as possible? Are you disturbing your rest?"

"It doesn't matter, I went to bed early last night. You actually climbed onto the window sill. This is the third floor here. You were seen by the patrol, but you couldn't tell clearly."

She closed the window again to shut out the cold wind. When she turned around, she found that Shade had picked up the excited cat. The cat rubbed Shade's chest, then sniffed his hand suspiciously, and then showed an unhappy expression, but no one cared about it now.

"Xia De, you didn't just stay up all night to solve the problem, right?"

"Yes, things were resolved smoothly! You can't imagine what kind of story I witnessed! It was quite interesting."

"Really, take care of your body."

She said softly, reaching out to help Shade take off his shirt:

"You can rest here for a while. I'll wake you up for breakfast later."

"How can that be done? The landlady will not allow you to stay with a man. Although she will not find out, she cannot break the rules."

Shade emphasized:

"You don't have to break the rules for me."

Dorothy showed a soft smile:

"You are a real person. Well, wait for me for a while, I will change my clothes and go back to St. Teresa Square with you to sleep."

Although she was woken up, Dorothy was unexpectedly in a good mood:

"Of course, it's just sleep. You should also pay attention to your body. I know you are strong, but how can you not know how to take care of yourself?"

After returning home, Shade slept for two hours. At eight o'clock, Dorothy woke him up for breakfast, and then rested at home all morning.

Dorothy left in the afternoon, satisfied with the story of Sister St. Perry she had received from Shade. Shade originally thought that he would not go to Randall Valley all day today, but would take a good rest at home. Unexpectedly, as the evening approached, Iluna actually came to visit again:

"The ancient god's magic, the power of the earth, I finally found the information!"

The seventeen-year-old girl walked into the entrance hall in the sunset and told Shade the good news excitedly:

"It took so long because the Holy See reviewed my application for review. This magical technique is related to the chosen one of the earth!"

Without even going up the stairs, after Shade closed the door, Iluna dropped the silencing spell:

"Shade, inform Luvia of the news as soon as possible. The fragments of the poem in the possession of our Sun Church show that one of the characteristics of the Chosen One of the Earth is that he controls a branch of the [Power of the Earth]!"

"oh?"

Shade narrowed his eyes slightly:

"In addition to my [healing aura], how many other branches does the power of the earth spell have?"

"The Whispering Psalm" describes the characteristics of the first chosen person, so the number of branches of [Earth Power] will determine the number of possible objects. Moreover, based on past experience, it is very likely that the candidates who are selected later will also master this spell.

Of course, the first thing to do is exclude Shade himself. Luvia repeated many times that Shade will not be the chosen one.

"It's hard to say."

Iluna shook her head slightly:

"After contacting the power of the earth, each person will obtain different spells and even thaumaturgy according to the characteristics of their soul. This is the oldest ancient divine magic. The Holy See has recorded thirty-two types of [power of the earth] so far. Different branches, including even your [Healing Aura]. However, although the Holy See's records mention the Clay Holy Grail, the Holy Grail should automatically disintegrate after the spell is over. The incomplete [Power of the Earth] cannot be constructed completely. The Holy Grail. And the Holy Grail with the complete [Power of the Earth] structure is much stronger than the ones you made."

Because of the "Divine Afterglow" state, Shade's spells and thaumaturgy will change to a greater or lesser extent. There is a high probability that the power of divinity affects [Power of the Earth]. This is a spell that is greatly affected by divinity. technique.

"So, does the Holy See of the Sun record the [Power of the Earth, Field of Fertility]?"

Shade asked again, and Iluna nodded, and then realized what this question meant:

"Have you obtained the second power of the earth?"

She couldn't help but sigh in a low voice:

"I have told Luvia many times that you are more like me than me"

"No, no, I didn't get the spell, but I got the method to learn the spell. Let's go upstairs and tell you, this story is a bit complicated."

Back in the living room on the second floor, Shade and Iluna talked about their adventures in Randall Valley City on Monday, which even included elves and unicorns. Of course, the focus is still on the "Cemetery of St. Perry" and the story of the pious nun. Counting the time, the Church of the Sun should have received news from the Witch Council by now, but I don’t know what benefits the Council has received from the Righteous God Church this time.

"The inheritance of the power of the earth must rely on people who have the power of the earth in the past. That hand bone is a one-time use and is kept in the basement. Iluna, since you are a believer in the God of the Sun and the Earth. "

After telling the story, Shade immediately gave his proposal. Although Iluna will most likely not be the first choice of [The Chosen One of the Earth], this kind of power is very suitable for her.

"No, no, I said it during the Joey Barton incident, I don't want to take on more responsibilities!"

Iluna immediately shook her head:

"Besides, I'm not in the Randall Valley. Even if I learn this spell, I can't help you. There's no need to leave your precious power to me. It's a waste."

"But I don't need to learn it myself. Those black mud and crazy earth have no influence on me."

"Then give it to Luvia."

Iluna looked at Shade. The setting sun outside the window was behind Shade, making his face a little dim:

"Luvia has always been strange. She obviously plays an irreplaceable logistical role among the three of us, but she always wants to join the battle and participate in the investigation. I don't know what Luvia is. What kind of secrets there are, but this time she can finally help you."

Shade was silent for a moment and suddenly asked:

"Do you think Luvia may be the chosen one? No need to reason logically, I want to know the answer informed by your inspiration."

Iluna nodded directly without hesitation:

"It is possible, but she is not the chosen one of the earth. Judging from just intuition, she is more like fate, or even time."

Iluna's inspiration is very strong. So far, she doesn't know any connection between Luvia and "time".

But her words were not over yet:

"Maybe even the moon."

Shade frowned in thought and said nothing more.
