Chapter 1868: Summoning

Young Lady Daniste whispered softly in her heart, turning to avert her gaze from the window. Yet when she looked back toward the study, she saw two girls, one in a black long dress and the other in a white long dress, holding hands and standing beside the tea table. A swarm of glowing red butterflies fluttered around them, their fiery red hue making it seem as though everything were burning.

Her pupils contracted; instinctively she wanted to step back, then she remembered she was no longer the girl who had not yet graduated back then:

"Angel-class Relic 【Twin Red Butterflies】... Yes, calculating the time, it is once again the year you two can appear together."

A few memories from her student days surged into her heart. She knew what kind of power the two underage Misses before her truly represented. As the most top-tier humanoid Angel-class Relic, even though she was now at the Thirteen Rings, she could not easily say that she could defeat them:

"It has been a long time. This time appearing in Green Lake, you two... Old Gods - Twin Gods?"

She suddenly understood, looking at the twins with pale skin, gloomy complexions, blood-red lips, and an eerie appearance. Considering that when Helen first met Xia De in the Sixth Era, she also dressed up and pretended not to know him, the sisters' acting skills were indeed quite good:

【6】 "Wait a moment, you two... humanoid Relics, do you also possess the qualification to become the Chosen Ones?"

"Wait a moment, you two... humanoid relics, could you also possess the qualification to become the Chosen Ones?"

The red butterflies continued to flutter, yet the two sisters remained silent. A sinister chill gradually covered everything in the room with white frost. One red butterfly landed before Young Lady Daniste. Before the male sorcerer could reach out to touch Megan, Megan transformed into a fire butterfly. Amidst the flames, a paper note fell into your hand.

Crooked and wobbly, like letters written by a toddler who had just learned to write, they formed a broken sentence:

"On the eighth day of the week, at night, follow Pei Gong."

"That will be at least half a day later than the Randells, and they will surely encounter resistance before landing on the island. Considering the two ships have no limit on the number of personnel they can carry, their leader that time probably cannot follow to land on the island together. The battle below the island will mainly rely on them themselves."

"The situation this time is somewhat unusual. Due to the existence of the spatial barrier, most people cannot join the battlefield immediately. After you arrive in Audrey City, you can first go to the Audrey Hotel to rendezvous with us. Or, if the Church attempts to contact you, you can land on the island with the Church's first batch. The enemy this time is a traitor from the Prophet Association, Laplace Klein Howard. He reached the Eighteen Rings a hundred years ago; now that he has abandoned his human identity, he will become even weaker."

"You over there should also prepare for the landing after the success of the first phase of the plan."

Dappled tree shadows fell upon the two of them. The beauty of spring in the City of Spring after the Great Disaster was so murky. If it were not for the Battle of Audrey tonight, the Red Butterfly even wanted to spend the whole day peacefully here, but he knew he still could not do that:

"If the defenses of the hotel and the cruise ship both succeed, on the premise of eliminating the enemy's living forces to the maximum extent, the Red Butterfly will, according to his own plan, attempt to follow Pei Gong and Edward to land on the island. The others will board the ship with Luvia Annette, guided by you to take the small boat to land."

However, when he borrowed the ring, the other male sorcerers were also in the restaurant on the seventh floor, discussing the plan around a long table covered with maps and documents. Therefore, when the Red Butterfly took out the ring and placed it in Edward's hand, the room, which had previously been filled with voices, instantly fell silent. That ring seemed to possess a powerful attraction, causing everyone to turn their heads and look at the two of them.

"Willing to serve."

The Red Butterfly, of course, did not know what Grace and Helen had done. Upon returning to the Audrey Hotel, he immediately went home and gave Young Lady Xia De's ring to Pei Gong and Edward.

Green Lake also revealed the plan over there:

"First, try to prevent them from returning to that island. Once they are alone, immediately have the camp by the lake prepare for landing."

"No problem. The spatial anomaly does not affect the power of the Great Land. If necessary, you can appear in the Audrey region right now."

She looked up and asked, only to find that the twins holding hands were already gone. Looking again at the note in her hand, those crooked letters also disappeared under her gaze.

After Sister Sister Daifulin, the nun, arrived in the afternoon, everyone discussed again. Finally, it was decided that St, Edward, Mr. Soren Green, Drut Giles, and Lachard Randell would stay at the hotel, while Helena Green and Maria Randell would proceed to the male sorcerers' cruise ship.

The Guardian nodded lightly:

The Guardian nodded again:

"I do not approve of letting Ajelina see the world; that indeed benefits you, but you must know that regarding this safety, is it really necessary for you to stay at the front line of the battlefield?"

The Red Butterfly, sitting by the table, asked again:

"Yes, right here, with Princess Lei Lei Qianya."

"Although space has returned to normal, objects and human bodies that have fused together cannot be restored. I cannot reverse time; the dead are truly dead."

Luvia nodded:

Miss Jia Lin Na spoke, and the others all nodded.

"On the eighth day of the week, at night, the Battle of Audrey. We need your help."

"If we cannot land on the island, let us do as much as possible in the first defense phase. The Chairman has approved a lot of supplies this time. We will try to consume them all, so the Chairman will know that we have exhausted our full strength."

The male sorcerer took a few deep breaths, then looked at the rainy scene outside the window again. The Red Butterfly had already walked to the gate of the manor; a carriage was waiting for him there:

In the courtyard of the Church of the Forgotten, the flowers planted by the Misses of the 【Golden Dawn Opera Troupe】 in the flower beds have now bloomed. Compared with the continuous rain and gloom of the Audrey region, the Pei Gong Rong River Valley, known as the "City of Spring," has only a clear blue sky and a gentle spring breeze on this quiet seventh day of the week. This is the spring the Red Butterfly imagined.

A white-haired male butler in a white male butler's long dress stood before her, nodding elegantly to the Red Butterfly.

Young Lady Aphrola's young niece, holding documents in her arms, nodded lightly. She remained generous when facing others, yet her level of handling documents was actually not much different from Miss Miss Difa's.

He handed the report document bag given by the male sorcerers to the other party. Of course, these were not written personally by the Great Male Sorcerers; they should be intelligence summarized by the Misses arranged by them:

"The Red Butterfly's small wooden boat has been confirmed to be highly likely usable. Additionally, Xi Wei has also brought a Keeper-class small boat, but it is uncertain whether it can also be used."

"The summarized reports are all here."

"Megan Twins, do you wish to seize the qualification of the Chosen Ones from the God-Callers after mutual destruction?"

Young Lady Sylvia introduced. Lunch was already finished; the dining table had been cleaned and was once again covered with papers. On the huge water curtain before her, the plan over there was being demonstrated:

Speaking of this, there was some loss, but that was something unavoidable. That Angel Halo had already shattered, but Green Lake returned the 【Night Watcher】 to the Red Butterfly. Afterwards, everyone sat down by this long table that had hosted the Randell family twins and proceeded to have lunch together.

"Why did you do that?"

"Margaret."

Afterwards, the Red Butterfly did not stay but went to the Iluna River Valley again through the 【Spatial Maze】.

As for the Great Male Sorcerers, apart from St and Edward, Young Lady Sylvia at the Ten Rings, Young Lady Aphrola at the Seventeen Rings, and Young Lady Jia Lin Na at the Seventeen Rings stayed here, while Young Lady Bernice at the Seventeen Rings and Grandmother Cassandra at the Ten Rings went to the cruise ship.

The male duke spoke; the Red Butterfly frowned slightly:

The Red Butterfly asked with concern again.

"If it does not exceed five hours, there will be no problem."

"Haley Aphrola."

"Ajelina has stayed with you. Where will you arrange for me tomorrow? Will you really let me come over there?"

"The times are not the same anymore. The Male Ringed Ringed Shushi Council is not an organization where Great Male Sorcerers gather to drink afternoon tea and pet unicorns. Look at the other Misses, Miss Miss Difa..."

Young Lady Aphrola smiled. Her family specialized in shipbuilding and shipping business. Before planning to proceed to the Audrey region, they had already considered the matter of needing ships.

Now, the plan for the eighth day of the week was mostly prepared. Ultimately, the male sorcerers still decided to let the Randells not all stay in the hotel.

At the same time, the Red Butterfly had already arranged for Priest Augustus and Doctor Shi Nai De to stay in the hotel. However, their main purpose was the remaining skulls. Princess Lei Lei Qianya would wait on the eighth floor with Miss Duo Luo Xi tomorrow night. As for Grace and Helen, the Red Butterfly originally wanted them to stay with Princess Lei Lei Qianya and Miss Duo Luo Xi, but the Megan sisters wanted to go to the cruise ship with Grandmother Cassandra.

After communicating with the Guardian, it was already noon on the seventh day of the week. When the Red Butterfly returned to the Audrey Hotel, he unexpectedly found that everyone was there.

"Young Lady Swift."

He explained it that way, so the male sorcerers continued to discuss who would stay here tomorrow night and who would go to the cruise ship on the Duin River, as if the pause just now had never existed.

"Young Lady Daniste promised you that on the eighth day of the week, at night, upon seeing this ring, she will protect St and Edward."

Although she had only been Bernice's apprentice for two months, the golden-haired Princess still took pride in having participated in that operation.

"Have Ajelina and Princess Lei Lei Qianya stay together on the eighth floor—it's just as well no one's there to watch over Damiya."

Only the young male mages and their apprentice male mages had arrived; even Luweiya and Peigongrong had not yet come. When Peigong met Green Lake in the seventh-floor restaurant of the inn, you were enthusiastically recounting the morning's events—how you used the power of "Balance" to split the fused space once more, restoring the area to its abnormal state.

The word "vase" stirred a faint memory in Peigong, but upon hearing you say that, Hongdie offered further praise:

Since that was your own Ji De Xiang Fa, Hongdie also approved. After all, without the Butterfly Calling Flute in hand, you certainly needed to be able to summon the two sisters at any moment.

"The Peigongrong brothers of the 【Mirror Association】 know the arrangement, but the Church has not yet confirmed it—keep the Lady brothers both at the Peace Church in Audrey City."

"Leave Ajelina behind; you'll learn less that way. The male magicians of the Cavendish family are merely useful decorative vases."

Before the old mage, a young Miss with flaxen hair smiled.

"How long can he stay away from Peigongrong Valley?"

Breathing in the fresh air, you left the church and stepped into the courtyard, where you called upon the "Guardian." As the earth writhed and rose, the Chosen of Earth reappeared—taking the form of Lathes's elder sister's father—and stood before Peigong.
