Chapter 1115: The Departing Moon and the Mad Seeker

~10 min read 1,888 words

"You see, in the end, you still..."

Xia De was kissed by a kiss filled with tears.

Afterward, embraced by Luweiya at the bedside, Xia De softly recounted to her the battle that had taken place two nights ago deep in the Great Swamp, far from the civilized world. He spoke of how he was inspired by the "Intellect Angel - Cherub" and understood his own power as a Chosen One who could record knowledge and wisdom, while Luweiya did not think as much as Xia De, only assuming that the three stone slabs had played a role in it.

"The qualification of the fourth Chosen One is equivalent to being completely in our hands... Let's discuss the ownership of the qualification after Yi Lu Na returns. Xia De, you really changed everything."

"Didn't the plan proceed very smoothly? Besides, I have even advanced to the Fifth Ring; now I am one ring higher than you."

Xia De said with a smile, and Luweiya let go of Xia De:

"I am also in the Middle Ring. After touching that arrow, the Fourth Ring Spirit Rune met the requirements, and I had Duo Luo Qian help me hold the advancement ceremony on Friday."

"Then tell me, how is the situation in the Pantanal region?"

Xia De held Luweiya's hand, and the purple-eyed girl also gripped his hand tightly:

"Before that, promise me, no matter what else you have to deal with, do not leave the manor until tomorrow morning. You need to rest well. I will help you ask for leave from the meeting at Doctor Shi Nai De's place this afternoon; after all, it's just to notify the exam time."

She said to Xia De almost like an order. Xia De knew she was concerned about his health, so he nodded in agreement:

"But I must leave tomorrow; someone is still waiting for my news."

This referred to 【Desire】; he was sure the other party was still waiting in the lake for the essential oil in the small pink perfume bottle.

"Also..."

Luweiya sat down again and bit her lip:

"I will come to see you again tonight to help you check your body."

Seeing Xia De looking at her with some surprise, the purple-eyed girl explained again:

"This can also be considered a reward for you. When I hugged you just now, I didn't smell that maid's perfume on you. I will pretend those five demigod witches don't exist, after all, they are not from our era, but Miss Se Wei Te..."

She pouted slightly. After confirming Xia De's safety, her mood was very good; she hadn't had such small actions before:

"To me, it is very dangerous."

There was no perfume smell because Tifa knew Luweiya would appear soon, and the maid had never made mistakes in her work.

The situation after the Battle of Pantanal was told to Luweiya by Sister Daifulin. After swallowing the fire split from the "Primordial Fire," the nun had gained new power. She put a small cluster of flames in a bottle and gave it to Luweiya. As long as Luweiya placed that cluster of flames in a brazier, she could talk to Sister Daifulin within the flames.

The situation in the Great Swamp was not as completely settled as Xia De thought. Even though the light spots scattered when the witches retreated soothed that land, the great fire ignited by Sister Daifulin continued to burn in the lakeside areas surrounding Pantanal Lake for a full twenty hours before extinguishing. The First Fire turned the "Pantanal Xiewu" into firewood, but the power of the Xiewu still severely polluted the island in the middle of Pantanal Lake and the nearby land, forcing the Church to temporarily evacuate everyone from the island.

Fortunately, only the area around Pantanal Lake was severely polluted, while other areas of the Great Swamp had already returned to normal.

Of course, what the Five Gods Church and the three major academies cared about most now was not how to deal with the non-expanding pollution in the depths of the swamp where no one stepped, but the Chosen One.

With Luweiya's consent, Yi Lu Na and Sister Daifulin both admitted to the Church that the "God Caller" had become the "Chosen One of Knowledge and Wisdom" to prevent the Church from thinking of other things. Under the joint investigation of the Church and the three major academies, it was confirmed that the five great witches who appeared last did not belong to this era. Although they could not figure out the specific identities of everyone, it was certain that they all came from the Fifth Era.

Whether it was the Church or the academy, they could not imagine what kind of power could summon the strong from the Fifth Era to the modern day. After all, Xia De's Ascended Words were completely different from the Ascended Words of normal Ringed Shushi.

"The nun said that the Witch Council recognized those five ladies, but didn't know who the God Caller was. Miss A Fu Luo La, Miss Jia Lin Na, and Miss Xi Er Wei Ya should all know what you did."

Luweiya said to Xia De, and Xia De shook his head indifferently:

"It doesn't matter, these three ladies are all people who can be trusted. Besides, I will give them a gift, a very precious gift."

"The gift you mentioned wouldn't be yourself, would it?"

"Oh, Luweiya, how could you think that? It's another gift."

He stopped the topic because Luweiya teased:

"Actually, if you could get to know more witches and let an ancient organization like the Witch Council assist you without any scruples, our cause would be even smoother... No need to explain to me, I can see the feelings those witches have for you."

Purple eyes looked at Xia De:

"You just need to ensure your own safety; no matter what it is for, you must return to my side safely."

Xia De nodded:

"Actually, as long as you kidnapped Mia, even if I fell into death, I would definitely crawl back."

Luweiya smiled and picked up the reluctant cat:

"Sister Daifulin said that the Church believes the 'God Caller' might be the Chosen One of Time, which is why he could summon power from the past."

"But I couldn't possibly be the Chosen One."

He took that arrow from the nightstand and then stabbed it into his arm:

"You see, I did not become the Chosen One of 【Knowledge and Wisdom】."

Feeling a little regretful in his heart, he looked at Luweiya with the arrow, but the purple eyes met his and shook slightly:

"No, for now, I don't intend to become part of the epic."

Xia De had actually intended to give the qualification to Luvia at the beginning; although he felt some regret, he generally understood Luvia's thoughts. Thus, he simply used an arrow to pierce Luvia's fair arm, and after the bleeding point appeared, a slight accumulation of enlightenment elements brought the miracle 【Fatal Crisis】 to the Diviner.

This is a passive miracle that one can choose whether to activate; once activated, any fatal crisis can be sensed a few seconds in advance. This is not a powerful perception, but a passively activated divination-type effect. The disadvantage is that the time spent with overly sensitive inspiration is not a good thing for a Ringed Shushi.

Although the Pantanal Xiewu was defeated, the abnormal snow covering the west of the Old Continent did not stop because of this. Although the blizzard and heavy snow had weakened to light snow, this abnormal snowy weather would still make this winter even harder to endure. The problems caused by the snow disaster had already had a great impact on the lives of ordinary people. Whether it was Kasenrike or Delarion, the biggest trouble this winter was dealing with this snow.

If not handled well, even the sowing in the spring of this year might be delayed by the abnormal climate.

But Luweiya believed that this was already the best situation imaginable.

For the Ringed Shushi organizations that participated in the Battle of Pantanal, the Church and the academy had more new questions. The attitude of the Witch Council would only be known after Miss Jia Lin Na returned. The Zhenlihui withdrew completely halfway, and the Pantanal Voodoo Society almost completely fell into the hands of the Church.

And the greatest culprit who caused all this, the "Apuna Library" that almost dominated all this behind the scenes, successfully learned information about the "Library that recorded all knowledge" on the island. Sister Daifulin told Luweiya the relevant news, and Luweiya smiled and said at this moment:

"The revelation they received was 'the departing one-third moon,' but obviously, this kind of riddle is meaningless at all, and no one knows what this represents. Apuna Library will probably have to spend several hundred years to have more gains."

But Xia De roughly guessed the meaning.

And the information Luweiya told that surprised Xia De the most was the whereabouts of Sir Leijins Pulinsha, the protagonist of the Battle of Pantanal.

Unexpectedly to everyone, he did not die. When the Church was cleaning the battlefield, they found him in the fire. Although the knight was seriously injured and severely weakened by being used as a sacrifice by the Xiewu, he was still alive. It was a pity that he was completely insane. Close contact with the "Pantanal Xiewu" caused irreversible damage to his spirit and soul. If it weren't for his angel bloodline, he would probably have directly degenerated into a monster with mushrooms and vines growing on his body.

Now the knight had been taken away by the Nature Church and would be temporarily detained in the Holy See of the Nature Church. Although it was said that it was impossible to obtain any information from him, after all, he was once a Chosen One, and the Church didn't care about keeping him and wasting a portion of food.

"That's fine, he knows that I, the doctor, and Margaret are Ringed Shushi, so this information won't be leaked."

Xia De sighed slightly and did not comment on the end of this mad seeker. He was just very curious about what Miss Pawo had obtained in that enlightenment, which led her to take all the Ringed Shushi of the Zhenlihui and withdraw halfway through the battle.

Sister Daifulin was still in the Great Swamp area, leading the nuns of the 【Lingxiu Sect】 to cooperate with the Nature Church to heal the wounds suffered by the swamp, so Luweiya only knew these things for the time being, but she would keep in touch with Sister Daifulin. Xia De was also happy to leave this matter to Luweiya; it was just right for Luweiya to be responsible for the contact with the nun.

Because there was a meeting in the afternoon, after accompanying Xia De for lunch, Luweiya left Miss Jia Lin Na's manor and returned to the city by carriage in the snow.

Xia De, whose body was still a bit weak, waved goodbye to the carriage at the gate of the manor's mansion and watched the carriage drive through the courtyard. Tifa stood behind him, watching Xia De's waving action, and suddenly showed a smile. ===== CHAPTER 1116 =====
