Chapter 1679: Demon Conjecture

The formless power turned into a blood-red long whip and lashed out, causing no damage to the bed, quilt, and clothes, but it accurately hit the wonderful soul inside the shell.

A scream representing pain came from Megan's mouth, she rolled over and lay on the bed, making a "woo-woo" sound in her mouth. Then Xia De actually felt the badge on his chest heating up in a cycle, which meant that Megan and Audrey were switching back and forth constantly.

"Are you okay?"

Xia De was worried that something would go wrong, reached out to help Megan up, and touched her arm, only to find that her body had become scorching hot.

"Oh~"

In the groaning, the lady whose whole skin showed a pink color instead grabbed Xia De's hand. She tried hard to turn her head to look at Xia De, which also let Xia De look at that face soaked in cold sweat, and those eyes that seemed to be glowing.

Xia De couldn't accurately describe what kind of feelings were in those eyes, excitement, pleasure, pain, struggle, this was really too complicated:

"Again."

She said in a hoarse voice, grabbing Xia De's hand with the force of a vise and refusing to let go. He felt that Megan and Audrey's palms were sweating profusely, and her whole body was trembling.

"What?"

"This feeling... it's been a long time since I felt my soul touched so truly. I truly felt my soul, felt the close fit of the soul and the flesh, the circulation of the spirit and elements... Again, harder, again."

"Is this okay?"

Xia De asked hurriedly to "She" who had made this suggestion:

"This doesn't look right no matter how you look at it."

"She" said gently, even with a smile in her tone:

【This sorcery comes from the Death Messenger and is a secret technique specifically used to manage those souls who are unwilling to leave. It has the best effect on individuals like her whose souls are turbid due to fusion. This will make her clearer and will also make her soul resistance stronger.】

"Again!"

Megan's hoarse voice repeated, and Xia De even felt that the wrist he was being grabbed by was becoming painful. Her eyes carried pleading, and the action of biting her lip made Xia De's heart beat wildly.

He felt more and more that things were not right, this was clearly not learned from the Book of Pink.

Megan had already started urging:

"You wouldn't be..."

The blood-red long whip fell, and Xia De was very glad that he had dropped the mute spell in advance, and even more glad that after returning, he hadn't turned Little Mia back from a toy.

In short, only the two of them knew what exactly happened in the Witch's bedroom where only Xia De and the Witch were alone for ten minutes. By the time it was over, Megan had taken a simple shower and appeared in the dining room. When she saw Xia De sitting on her side, her face was slightly red. Although she had been dodging and not looking at Xia De, her eyes still looked at him secretly from time to time.

Xia De fulfilled his promise, and he invited her to lunch today.

He used a brand new ruby to cast 【Fiona's Housekeeping Servant】, and the dragon maid on the other side of time faithfully completed the task. Along with the food, a small card appeared, and apart from the dragon language runes wishing for a pleasant lunch, it still drew a picture of the dragon maid bowing with a stick figure at the end.

"The relic just now said it saw you thousands of years ago, how old are you exactly?"

After lunch, when Xia De was holding the cat that had eaten its fill and was preparing to go back to attend the group study meeting, the Witch who was seeing Xia De off on the deck finally asked. Although she was curious about this, she didn't force Xia De to answer this question.

Her tone was very soft, and the look in her eyes also carried some feelings that hadn't been there before:

"You wouldn't be older than me, would you?"

She joked, so Xia De also said with a smile:

"My age? No, I'm definitely younger than you. I'm about one year old this year."

"What?"

Megan blinked, then realized Xia De was also joking.

"I mean 21, maybe 22. Because of some reasons, I don't know my birthday either. I have no relatives anymore, so I can't ask about this information."

Confirming that she was really older than Xia De, Megan didn't discuss this issue anymore. She wrapped her arms around Xia De's neck and kissed him again.

After she let go of Xia De, Xia De turned the cat that had eaten its fill back into a toy, and she pursed her lips and said:

"See you next week, next week, I will definitely take you to the island."

"See you next week, Megan, oh, and Audrey. Rest well, don't cast spells frequently recently. Although I know my sorcery can treat you, but that sorcery... um..."

The two looked at each other, and the Witch blushed slightly. So Xia De gave her another hug, then threw out the crystal shoes in front of her and returned to No. 6 St. Deran Square.

The Witch let out a long sigh, thinking of what happened in the room before lunch, and couldn't help but blush again. That sense of reality of strongly feeling the soul, the feeling of pain and pleasure mixed together, she even thought she was going to go crazy for a short time with Audrey.

She couldn't imagine how she said things like letting Xia De do it again at that time.

Even, they caught a glimpse of their own soul from it, and then caught a glimpse of the path to the Twelfth Ring that they had originally thought they would have no chance of, because the soul was unstable.

(Girl Yiluna is praying...)

Unsurprisingly, Xia De was late for this group meeting.

Because he was delayed for too long in Green Lake, after getting on the carriage at the door, no matter how he urged the coachman to be faster, by the time he got off the carriage on Röntgen Avenue, it was already 1:40 PM.

When Xia De knocked on the door and entered the meeting room, Priest Augustus, Luvia, and Dorothy had already arrived. Luvia knew that Xia De was going to Green Lake to handle things when she left No. 6 St. Deran Square in the morning, so she also informed others that Xia De was probably delayed by things, so although Xia De was late, no one found it strange.

This was the 26th day of the Month of Sowing, and May was about to come. It was now the middle of the spring semester, so everyone didn't have too many things to deal with.

As usual, they shared their gains for the week and dealt with personal academic problems through the poetry paper here. This meeting only lasted until 3:30 PM and ended.

It was still early. Dorothy, who was actually Lixia, saw that there were still two or three hours left before the Day of the Red Butterfly ended, so she said hello to Xia De and went to find Lixia, who was actually Dorothy. She also realized that she had to go to the train station to see them off in the evening, so she was very sorry that the precious Day of the Red Butterfly had wasted a few hours again.

Luvia went to find Yiluna, and Priest Augustus thought about returning to the church to attend the afternoon service. However, Xia De informed the priest that he would go to him in a while to talk about some things, and the priest understood that Xia De had new clues about the search for the skeleton.

"I encountered 【Greed's Reward】 again."

After sending the others away, Xia De, who was left alone, informed the doctor about what happened in the morning. Of course, the focus was on the information related to the demon on the island provided by the blue Giant Spirit:

"The curse of all evil, the huge maze, the path with no solution, that was the description it gave at the time."

"If so..."

Xia De sat on the sofa, and the doctor paced back and forth in front of the desk with his hands behind his back, with an excited expression on his face:

"Although it's not very detailed, there are indeed suspected targets.

Demon of Spatial Fragments-Sabal, even I don't know its true form, the most frequently used appearance is a thin black-skinned man, but it generally only entangles those with spatial talent and rarely takes the initiative to contact or even cooperate with humans. This demon is extremely strong, you and I alone are probably not its opponent;

Maze Demon-Yalu, the true form is a glowing black metal cube, no matter what image it appears in, it will hold a similar item, and it likes to create mazes to trap souls. This guy was sealed for a long time and is not a type good at fighting. If it is really it, the problem is instead how to induce it to actively reveal its true form, it is quite cautious;

The Lost One-Masala, a succubus with sheep horns, cow tail, and donkey hooves, yes, the kind you think of. Likes to seduce lone travelers, create large-scale spatial confusion, and tease those desperate and collapsing souls. It is extremely good at close combat, and the twin blades made of demon gold can harvest life like a sickle. I know your swordsmanship is very powerful, but don't easily come into direct contact with it."

Like last time, he gave three possibilities:

"But it doesn't exclude other unknown guys. I need more detailed information to judge who it is. Involving spatial power, things will become very troublesome. You must be careful."

"I understand, Doctor. It's just that the guy cooperating with the demon this time is probably not as simple as Stone Osenfort."

The blue-eyed middle-aged doctor nodded solemnly:

"Those ancient evil spirit demons are powerful, but it doesn't exclude the possibility of being used by humans because they are sealed or weakened. In the distant Third Era, the most terrifying thing was actually those guys who had the ability to control evil spirit demons... Sometimes, humans can be even more terrifying than demons."

After saying goodbye to the doctor, Xia De didn't stop and took Little Mia to the Dawn Church to find Priest Augustus.

The conversation between the priest and Xia De in the church corridor was simple:

"Half a skull."

He repeated the information he got from the little girl soul accompanying Drout Giles:

"But it's not certain if it's really one-half, it could also be a small part."

"A skull, huh."

Priest Augustus narrowed his eyes slightly:

"This is really extraordinary. Xia De, this matter might be beyond expectations. The Edwards ancestor you described is very likely using the power of the skeleton. This is not impossible, I have this premonition." ===== CHAPTER 1680 =====
