Whispering Verse

Shade did not recognize the wrong person, and what he saw in front of him was not an illusion. Shade is very familiar with the power of Miss Fiona Drago because he used the Mystery Lock [Sleeping Princess] to save the witch and borrowed her power many times in the Mystery Lock.

The girl in front of him is undoubtedly the girl he met in the Library of Gaddis. From the Forest of Thousand Trees in the Western Continent, to the Deadly Valley of the Mid-Continent, and now to the City of Eternal Night in the Northern Continent, Shade and Saint Worship for the third time. The founders of Lens met.

"Miss Fiona Drago?"

He called the young witch's name again, and the pronunciation was in standard Fifth Age language, but the red dragon witch dressed as a maid still just asked repeatedly:

"Welcome to the Dragon Maid Cafe, what do you need?"

Her expression was a little dull, and she couldn't feel the real expression in her eyes. Seeing this situation, Shade could only reach out and touch her forehead, wanting to investigate the situation more carefully:

"Oh, the last time we met, we were still at the seventh level. In just four years, we are already at the eleventh level? Miss Feliana and Miss Olanode are really..."

Then came a huge force:

"rude!"

The witch grabbed Shade's hand and tried to push him directly to the ground, but at this time Shade had scattered into a pile of flying red butterflies. As the witch's tail swept across, sweeping the two butterflies that could not dodge into red light spots, most of the red butterfly group had gathered around the white table closest to the door. Shade sat down at the table:

"Sorry, please give me the menu."

Miss Drago stood there dullly. It took at least half a minute before she came over, handed the menu to his hand, and then stood quietly waiting.

The red cover of the menu has the name of the store embossed on it. After opening, there is a picture on the left side of each side and a text introduction on the right side.

The content on the first page clearly reads:

[The golden crispy pancake blessed by the Great One, the God of Wealth "Golden Slug", after eating it, the eater's wealth will increase within 72 hours. 】

[Pancakes may have a sticky texture like slug juice, which is a blessing from God. 】

Below is the price:

[You need to pay 30 ounces (about 850.49g) of gold, or sacrifice 1.5 pounds (about 0.68kg) of any body to the night. 】

The price is actually quite appropriate, but I don’t know how powerful the 72-hour wealth fortune is.

Shade turned to the second page, and the following content was equally astonishing:

[The soul black coffee of the Demon King, after drinking it, degenerates into a high-level evil spirit demon. 】

[Not everyone is qualified to drink this drink, garbage souls please do not order it. 】

[You need to pay for your own soul, or a satisfying story. 】

The picture was of bubbling coffee, and the page was so detailed that Shade could see thousands of crying souls stretching out their arms in the coffee, as if it were a black lava hell.

Shade blinked and turned to the third page:

[Philosopher’s Stone Macaron, available for takeaway. 】

[Made by the Great Sage, this exquisite dessert will not lead to obesity or tooth decay if eaten too much. 】

The picture is of a very common colorful round cake, and little Mia likes this kind of sweet dessert very much. Although it has no descriptive function, I imagine that this is the real Philosopher's Stone carved into the shape of a small round cake, the pinnacle achievement of alchemy.

Of course, the price is also high:

[You need to pay for 10 gallons (approximately 45.46L) of Yuehua Water. 】

Shade did some calculations. With the speed at which the ritual in his attic produced the "Moonlight Water", even if Agelina, who celebrates her 17th birthday today, reaches the age of Priest Augustus, he will not be able to get it together. So much material.

Knowing that he could not waste time, he did not read every page of the menu carefully, but turned directly to the last page. Sure enough, just as he thought, the "Dragon Maid Cafe" not only sells snacks and coffee, but also sells everything in the name of the store.

[Hybrid dragon maid-Fiona Drago, an eleventh-level witch and eleventh-level warlock, a mortal lost in the Evernight City, the paternal line of the red dragon royal family, and the maternal line of mixed elf. 】

[Beautiful mortal women understand time, but do not understand the greatness of the night. 】

The picture on the side is a very beautiful and detailed portrait of the Red Dragon Witch. She is wearing a black and white maid's dress, her hands are clasped together and hanging on her chest. Her big red tail is hanging on the floor, bypassing the looming black at the bottom of the dress. Small leather shoes, the tip of the tail stopped behind the feet, and there was a small package beside the feet. The background is this cafe, but compared to the detailed portrait of the maid herself, the cafe seems a bit simple.

[Permanent control rights require payment of light. 】

"Light?"

There is no quantity written here, so Shade doesn't know the specific amount. But no matter what, he couldn't let Miss Fiona stay here. Not only was this his friend, but he needed to know that with the current situation, St. Byrons also needed its future principal.

"Miss Maid, I want this."

He put the menu on the table and said to Fiona. The red dragon girl lowered her head to look at the menu:

"The customer has purchased a maid, through which channel do you want to pay?"

"Well, what payment channels do you allow here?"

Shade asked rhetorically.

So Fiona turned around and walked to the counter, then took out a black glass jar. This kind of glass jar is often used to store materials that cannot be exposed to direct light, and there is one in the basement of Shade's house.

"Please use this."

She opened the lid of the glass jar, and Shade subconsciously glanced inside. The darkness that seemed to lead directly to the bottomless abyss immediately made him feel dizzy.

All the surrounding light converged into the jar at this moment, and the room immediately became dark. Shade noticed that the night outside the door was even a little impatient, so he immediately stretched out his finger:

"moonlight."

When the bright silver moonlight lit up, the black tank immediately gave up the ordinary light around it. From Shade's fingertips, several silver filaments connected to the depths of the black vat, and the light was rapidly being absorbed by the black vat.

“How much do I need to pay?”

Feeling the rapid consumption of spirit in his body, Shade asked Fiona who was aside. Not only did the places where the tree father gave him tests not only had no concept of time and space, but also the spirit and physical strength were almost impossible to recover.

The maid didn't answer, she just stood there quietly looking at Shade's hand. Shade knew that he couldn't waste too much time, so he simply summoned the life ring and released the "Light Technique" in his strongest posture.

Under normal conditions, this kind of light spell is enough to make the moonlight wash over half of the city, but at this time, it only made hundreds of silver bright lines between Shade's fingers and the black cylinder.

The rapid consumption of spirit did not bring any signs of optimism. The black vat continued to absorb the light, and Shade just waited attentively. He wasn't worried that it was a trap. He knew that honesty was the most important thing in this kind of place.

While waiting while his sensory soul was being consumed, Shade also discovered that in this state, the light connected from his finger to the other end. He could manipulate the light to "transform" more easily than usual, that is, to change the light into other forms.

This ability allowed him to develop several different transformation forms of the basic thaumaturgy of "Moonlight Slash" when he was at a low level. Taking advantage of this precious state, Shade thought about the changes in his attack magic.

The first thing that came to mind was the "sun in the palm" that Iluna showed to Miss Carina not long ago, so gradually, the moonlight changed from Shade's fingertips to appearing from the palm, as if he was holding up the round silver moon:

"But it's not offensive."

Thinking in his mind, he thought of his thaumaturgy [Confinement Halo], so he worked hard to turn the silver ball in his palm into a ring suspended in his palm.

This process was quite difficult and took nearly five minutes to complete. Looking at the silver dense filaments overflowing from the ring in his hand and connecting to the black cylinder, like moldy donuts, Shade felt that the mental attack generated by this appearance might be stronger than the actual attack power:

"A simple ring still has no attack power. Even if I put it above my head, I won't be able to turn into an angel."

He continued to think, and then controlled a jagged light blade to appear outside the ring. But this simply changes the appearance of the [Confinement Halo] and does not enhance its attack power. This is just like using ink to draw the shape of "king" on little Mia's forehead, it will not turn little Mia the cat into the big Mia tiger.

A change in appearance is not enough to produce a fundamental change.

But Shade could no longer think anymore, because the rapid withdrawal of light had made his own spiritual deficiency reach a very dangerous level. The [Pink Vial of Desire] cannot be brought here. Even if Shade is partially exempt from the rule that the spirit cannot be restored, the slow recovery speed is not enough to offset such a terrifying consumption. And considering that we don’t know what will happen next, the current situation is quite dangerous.

[So, give up this witch? 】

she asked with a smile.

"How can it be?"

As Shade said, he actually put his glowing hand directly into the black vat. Darkness swallowed his hand, but the gleam of the silver moon protected Shade's hand from disappearing completely. The darkness of nothingness made the spirit's withdrawal become faster, and even the life ring behind it appeared to be crumbling. But at this moment, there were some more burning golden embers in the flowing light stream. As the skin on Shade's fingers appeared horribly cracked, as if burned, golden light shone through the cracks. And out.

The cracks quickly spread to Shade's entire arm, and the light of the divine ember completely illuminated the mouth of the black vat. Shade also stopped casting the "Light Technique" at this time. The darkness seemed to be afraid of the divine light. In just a few seconds, the container itself began to tremble. With a subtle noise, spiderweb-like cracks clearly appeared on the surface of the black glass jar.
