Chapter 1644

Xia De smiled apologetically, and the woman behind the veil asked softly:

"When you first met me, was I indifferent to everything?"

"Yes, because of the influence of that Heart of Stone."

Later, when she gave that heart to Xia De, Xia De only touched the "Winter Flower" growing on the stone, and almost shed tears.

"Then, the last question you asked me, do you still remember?"

"Of course I remember, I asked at that time—even at this moment, do you still love Stone Orsenfort?"

Xia De repeated, and Hela nodded. The side faces of the two were illuminated by the underworld moon, and their eyes were very serious. The departing souls flickered with light with their backs to them, while Priest Ao Gu Si by the door watched this scene quietly.

"My answer: Yes. I hate him, I no longer have a hot heart, I no longer pay attention to everything in the world, but I still love him. Mr. Hamilton, whether your heart is cold and empty, and whether you love someone, have no relationship."

Xia De was a bit confused, opening his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say. Hela Orsenfort continued:

"If you love her, you will love her no matter when, even if you just remember to love her. I am not a transcendent, I cannot discuss the influence of 'love' on the soul, but simple indifference cannot change love and attachment. I am very sure of this point. If I really didn't love Stone anymore, I wouldn't entrust you to solve the problem of him being trapped in the world."

【The novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, the source-changing app that all old bookworms are using,】

"So your entrustment meant this... simple indifference cannot change..."

"Mr. Hamilton, will you forget them because of the mistakes of those you love?"

The woman asked again, and Xia De immediately shook his head. Last Saturday, Dorothy and Rixia did such risky and irrational things, and he just asked them to promise that there would not be a next time.

"Of course not."

"Then don't doubt your emotions."

She looked at Xia De from behind the veil, and Xia De felt that compared to when she was alive, the gaze of Hela Orsenfort after death possessed the power to penetrate people's hearts:

"You said you are the same as me, indifferent to this world, I don't oppose this point of view. But you are also the same as me, always keeping in mind those you love, until the very end. No need to worry, no need to doubt, I wish you can obtain all love, I wish all your love can always be by your side. Even if everything reaches the end, as long as you remember that you still love them..."

Her hands were held together, pressed against her chest. That soul glowed slightly, and then all the light gathered in her hands in front of her chest.

Hela Orsenfort held the light in her hands and raised it toward Xia De, so cold blue light spots jumped into Xia De's body, and under the gaze of the cat on Xia De's shoulder, touched his soul.

【Outsider, you have obtained the miracle "Passionate Ice." Use positive emotions to make ice and snow have high heat and explosive effects. Positive and high-spirited emotions will make the explosion more intense. Corresponds to the "Indifference" spirit rune.】

This seems to be a miracle of making bombs with bare hands.

By the time Xia De recovered from the trance of obtaining power, Hela Orsenfort's figure had already returned to the water surface, walking toward the underworld moon with those souls whose faces could not be seen clearly with their backs to him.

Xia De wanted to wave and thank her loudly, but was afraid of disturbing the peace here, so he just said a "thank you" in a low voice, then turned around and returned to Priest Ao Gu Si's side with Mia.

The old priest heard the whole exchange just now and said to Xia De with a smile:

"Understand now?"

"Yes, those confusions were really ridiculous. Whether I am indifferent to this world, what does it have to do with whether I love everything around me?"

He covered his chest, feeling the powerful beating of his heart. All the sequelae caused by the strange empty power of the angel-level relic 【Remains of the Nameless】 were completely eliminated at this moment. This matter only brought him power, the power to help him protect everything.

"Priest, let's go back... speaking of which, there is one more thing I don't quite understand."

He and the priest passed through the crack of the door one after another and returned to the 【Soul Cemetery】, and that stone door automatically hid in the thick fog.

"Don't understand what?"

The priest asked standing in the fog.

"These departed souls, how are they all so amazing? Joy Barton's lover, Ms. Marilyn Handel, actually absorbed the curse imposed by death itself on the water of death after Barton lost to me; although Hela Orsenfort was resurrected from death by demon power, she was indeed just an ordinary person, but she made me learn a miracle."

Xia De asked his doubts, and the priest showed a smile on his face, and exited the cemetery with Xia De back to the corridor in his house:

"Death, is it wonderful?"

Of course, the truth is that the departed souls have become a part of the world, so the spirits dominated by emotions have magical powers equivalent to death itself. These powers will only manifest because of various events that can be called miracles, and once the soul returns to the world of the living from real death, this power no longer belongs to them.

The effect of sacrificing a drop of divinity or a Heart of the Living Dead to open the door is to obtain this kind of precious miracle.

It wasn't until after lunch that Xia De parted ways with Priest Ao Gu Si. Although he didn't go far this morning, Xia De's harvest was more than experiencing an adventure.

He ignored Mia's habit of wanting to take a nap after eating, and forcibly took the cat to find Luvia at the Diviner Association during the lunch break.

When seeing Xia De in the divination room, Luvia thought something big had happened again, and even took three 【Yin Soul Iron Coins】 quite flusteredly wanting to divine for Xia De, but Xia De hugged her directly:

"No, I came this time just to give you a hug."

The purple-eyed girl was surprised at first, but soon reacted and hugged Xia De too.

"Really not bad, you have completely returned to normal."

She felt the warmth of the hug, very satisfied that Xia De was indeed as firm-willed as she thought:

"The man I chose is really not bad."

Xia De didn't stay in the Diviner Association for too long, and took a carriage to Feather Pen Street in the university district, finding Dorothy in her apartment.

This afternoon, the writer lady invited other well-known local female writers to have a tea party in her apartment. When she heard the landlady say that Xia De was looking for her downstairs, Dorothy also thought something had happened like Luvia:

"Xia De!"

She hurried down the stairs, but what greeted her in the foyer was just a warm hug. The writer lady blinked in confusion, then reached out to hug him back, and reminded him with a smile in his ear:

"Your cat looks like it can't keep its eyes open. If you have something to do later, how about leaving it here for a nap?"

So Little Mia could finally take a nap with peace of mind.

The next stop was to find Rixia and Ms. Galina. Although Xia De didn't know if Rixia was in Yodel Palace, he was very sure that Ms. Galina was definitely in Yodel Palace.

The newspaper had already published the news that the second batch of negotiation delegations led by Duchess Galina would depart for the Green Lake area on Saturday evening, so before she left, there were still many things that needed to be handled in Yodel Palace.

As the location where the royal family lived and the administrative center of the entire kingdom, the defense of Yodel Palace was second only to the major churches that could conveniently arrange rituals. But for Xia De, wanting to break in was not a very difficult thing.

After turning into a cat, he jumped directly onto the wall and then jumped into the garden of Yodel Palace, then walked generously toward the direction of Rixia's room. And none of the people who saw this cat on the road felt it was strange.

The luck this time was a bit bad, there was no one in Rixia's room. So the silver cat jumped nimbly from the third-floor windowsill, and just as he was thinking about whether to rely on the sensing of the "Witch Detection Medal" to find Ms. Galina first, he saw Ajelina in the back garden.

The little princess had nothing to do, taking advantage of the good weather in the city today, she was having afternoon tea in the back garden with her two younger sisters. The three young princesses sat around a white round table in the gazebo, while the maids served in the gazebo.

The other two princesses looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old, and they were also dressed in princess dresses with small black leather shoes. Xia De recognized Alice Cavendish among them, and the other younger princess could not be matched with the huge princess list of the Cavendish royal family:

"Kate? Elena? Belinda?"

He thought about the possible names, and then decisively gave up thinking about meaningless things. If he walked over directly in the form of a cat, it would definitely scare others, so Xia De maintained the cat form and stopped in front of Ajelina's maid. Ajelina's maid had also seen this silver-white cat when Xia De broke into Yodel Palace on Saturday night, so after confirming that this was the cat, she went to tell Ajelina.

A few minutes later, under the grape trellis in the back garden of Yodel Palace, Ajelina saw Xia De cat standing on the stone table:

"Oh, why are you here?"

She wanted to touch the cat with some surprise, but Xia De, who was prepared, dodged it immediately:

"Good afternoon, Ajelina. Is Rixia here? And is Ms. Galina here?"

"What a coincidence, Mother took my sister to visit Duchess Cabor. But Great-Aunt Galina is here, I saw her half an hour ago."

Ajelina said, looking at Xia De eagerly:

"Do you want me to take you to find her?"

"No no, I can go by myself."

"But Great-Aunt is indoors. The royal palace guards won't care about cats appearing outdoors, but they definitely won't let cats in indoors casually."

"This..."

So Ajelina reached out and hugged the silver-white cat, and tried hard to hide her smile.

She also said to her maid:

"Tell Alice and Elena that I have something to find Great-Aunt Galina, and I will be back in an hour."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Then, the little princess left happily holding the cat in her arms.
