Chapter 1049: Respective Invitations
Sir Pulin and Princess Margaret arrived on time at three o'clock that afternoon.
Miss Danister used a miracle to change her appearance and greeted the two with Xia De. She appeared as Xia De's friend and explained through a simple lie that she needed the spiritual light of three moons.
With Princess Margaret's guarantee, plus the fact that Sir Pulin and Xia De's relationship was quite good, this gentleman agreed directly.
The next thing was much simpler. Princess Margaret stood behind Xia De holding Little Mia, the three sat on three different sofas, and the black book containing the secret of the 【Silver Moon Library】 was placed on the central coffee table.
While Miss Danister first revealed the core spirit rune 【Red Moon】, Xia De and Sir Pulin also revealed their spiritual light together. All three only revealed their core spirit runes, not their complete life rings, so neither the Sir nor the princess realized the specific level of Xia De's "friend."
Three kinds of brass-colored spiritual light shone together on the pages of the opened wordless black book. Under the spiritual light of the three, faint ink marks gradually appeared on the wordless pages, and the ink marks connected to each other to form complex blurred runes, and then the runes gradually became clear.
And just when Xia De thought they were about to succeed, and a smile appeared on Miss Danister's face, the process of the blurred ink marks becoming clear stopped abruptly.
"Hmm?"
Compared to the spiritual light of Xia De and Miss Danister shining on this book, after adding Sir Pulin, the ink marks were indeed much clearer, but the degree of clarity was still not enough for anyone to interpret the content of the book.
In other words, although the "Moon of Guidance" had an effect, it was still not enough to represent the true 【Yellow Moon】. To learn the content of this book, it still required the 【Yellow Moon】 core spirit rune to shine together with the 【Red Moon】 and 【Silver Moon】.
A look of astonishment appeared on the face of the library manager Miss. After waiting for a few seconds in silence to see if there would be other phenomena, she sighed slightly and accepted the reality.
The 13th-ring female Shushi quickly adjusted her mood:
"It seems to have failed. Sure enough, this kind of high-level alchemical item is not something a 6th-ring Shushi like me can covet. Thank you for your help. It seems I wasted everyone's time."
She shook her head disappointedly, but still paid the reward to Sir Pulin.
"Xia De, I'll leave first. The blow of this matter to me is quite significant."
Saying that, she stood up. Both the Sir and the Princess had things to say to Xia De, so Xia De stood up to send Miss Danister downstairs first.
The disappointment expressed in Miss Danister's words was absolutely not fake. She maintained great patience for today's operation, waiting for a full three months, but ended up with nothing. Fortunately, it was not the first time she had failed in exploring the content of the black book. In the downstairs hall, she did not forget to thank Xia De for his help:
"I can also accept this result... I think I still have to go back and plan well, and contact you when I have ideas for the next step."
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath:
"After I have new ideas, I will contact you again. During this time, it was hard for you too."
"Please wait a moment, Miss Danister."
Xia De called out to this lady and pointed upstairs:
"At eight o'clock tonight, please come here again. I probably have some ideas."
He hesitated:
"Yes, perhaps, we can use other methods, and it doesn't necessarily have to be the core spirit rune. But I need to prepare first."
"You have a way... no problem, after all, the Academy sent me to Tobesk, and I can't leave immediately. I hope your method is useful."
Although she said this, Miss Danister didn't seem to have much hope:
"Then see you tonight. Speaking of which, this visit, I didn't bring you any gifts."
After she said goodbye to Xia De, she opened the door and walked out, then disappeared into the air, while the pedestrians on St. Deran Square seemed not to have seen this scene.
When Xia De returned to the second floor holding Little Mia, Princess Margaret and Sir Pulin indeed had things they wanted to say to Xia De.
Of course, ladies first, so Margaret spoke to Xia De in the corridor:
"Next Wednesday, I will set off to return."
She stood in the corridor looking at Xia De:
"I hope you can come to the banquet on Tuesday night."
"Are you going back so soon? Understood, I will go to the banquet."
Xia De nodded. The princess reached out and touched the cat held captive in Xia De's arms, biting her lip:
"Then, do you have anything to say to me?"
"Um... have a safe journey?"
Xia De blinked. Before the blonde girl opposite showed a gloomy expression, he smiled and said:
"I hope you like this visit to Tobesk. Margaret, I am very happy that I can know you in this world."
He took the princess's soft, white hand and kissed the back of her hand lightly.
"Knight, the hand-kissing ceremony should be kissing the back of the fingers."
The princess reminded softly, pulled her hand out of Xia De's hand, and her eyes looked at Xia De:
"I am also very happy to know you, really, very happy..."
For a moment, Xia De thought she would reach out and hug him, but she didn't:
"If you can't find out about the lone female Shushi, don't check anymore."
After a pause, she continued:
"On Tuesday night, I hope you must be there."
Xia De's memory brought him back to the Forest of Thousand Trees. He had personally participated in the god-calling ritual and learned a lot of knowledge from Miss Feliana.
Xia De nodded, and then sent the princess downstairs; her carriage was still waiting for her. When looking back at Xia De in the carriage, the emotions in Margaret's eyes, Xia De felt that even if he used a whole sheet of paper, he couldn't write them all down.
【Sinful...】
"A sinful man, I know."
Xia De responded in his heart, standing on his doorstep, watching the carriage leave.
For Sir Leijins Pulin, Xia De's thoughts were actually very complicated. He was not as thoroughly bad as Ivan Darkness, and for the time being, he didn't have the wrong ideas like Joey Barton, but he was certainly not a completely good person like Iluna.
He was certainly not a good person, but he was not thoroughly bad either. Although such people were the majority in this world, this led to the fact that Luweiya had not yet decided what attitude to treat him with.
When he returned to the second floor holding the cat, Sir Pulin was standing by the fireplace, looking up at the knight's sword hanging on the wall by Xia De.
Seeing Xia De, he smiled and said:
"When His Highness told me that you were also a Ringed Shushi, I was really surprised."
"Let's re-acquaint ourselves, St. Byrons, 4th ring."
Xia De extended his hand to the Sir, and the two hands held together:
"Seksais, 5th ring."
Sir Pulin introduced himself. Xia De signaled him to sit down and talk, but the Sir shook his head:
"No need to sit down, I'll leave immediately. Actually, I also have some things I want to ask for your help."
"Please speak."
"Next Wednesday, I will return to Karsenrik with the visiting group. But before that, I still have some things to do in this city, about... relics. A document-level (level 4) book, which is still in an uncontained state. My friends here are busy receiving friends from the south recently..."
Xia De understood this as the Ringed Shushi of the Apuna Library here were busy cooperating with the Pantanal Voodoo Society.
"So it's hard for me to find suitable helpers. Knight, do you have time on Monday? I want to invite you to help me contain that book together. The book belongs to me, and I will pay you a reward."
Being able to act with Sir Pulin and talk to him by the way, Xia De thought this was a very good opportunity:
"Of course, no problem. Do you need me to call other friends to join? I have many friends here."
He wanted to call Luweiya.
"The two of us are enough. His Highness praised you; you are really reliable."
This gentleman from the southern country said with a smile:
"Mr. Hamilton, it seems that your relationship with His Highness seems to be very good?"
"This..."
"It doesn't matter, you don't have to answer me."
The Sir shook his head, but his eyes were very serious:
"Although we are only distant relatives, I knew her when she was a child, and later we became Ringed Shushi in the same group. She is a very good girl. Princesses need to use a calm personality to protect themselves to deal with court life, but I know her psychological age is far smaller than... I shouldn't talk about the age of ladies."
He was ready to say goodbye:
"I don't like to comment on other people's lives, but knight, if His Highness really likes you, no matter what your thoughts are, please don't hurt her."
Xia De sent the Sir downstairs, also standing at the door watching him leave. Sir Pulin had other things to do nearby, so he didn't take a carriage.
"Is this considered a good person or a bad person?"
【You yourself have said that there are no completely good people and bad people.】
"She" reminded softly.
Xia De nodded:
"When I go to recover the relic on Monday, I can have an in-depth talk with him."
Just as he was about to close the door, he found the purple-eyed girl walking over from the other side of the square, opposite to the direction Sir Pulin left, with a beautiful red scarf wrapped around her neck against the winter sunset.
"Was that Leijins Pulin just now?"
With her back to the sunset, those purple eyes seemed to be shining slightly. Although Luweiya's appearance could not compare to those unique witches, the charm of these eyes was something no witch could compare to.
"Yes."
Seeing Luweiya, Xia De felt inexplicably relaxed. He folded his arms across his chest and leaned against the door frame of his house. Luweiya looked at his posture, climbed the steps, and played with his chin a bit frivolously:
"Oh, handsome big boy, shall we go to dinner together?"
"Of course."
Xia De said with a smile and invited Luweiya into the house. ===== CHAPTER 1050 =====
