Chapter 1874: Ladies' Night Talk
The night grew deeper, and the rain covering the Gelinhu region grew heavier. Thanks to the sewer system built during the city's prosperity and the diversion of the Duyin River, Gelinhu City had not yet experienced waterlogging. But the splashing rain and the humid air that made people feel wet all over still made people feel uneasy.
At eleven o'clock at night, when Megan, in a very happy mood, walked down the stairs carrying a candlestick with light steps and entered the first floor of the hotel, she found that Miss Miss Jia Lin Na and Luweiya were still sitting by the table by the wall.
The red-haired Duchess and the purple-eyed diviner could, of course, hear her footsteps on the quiet night, but neither of them greeted Megan. So, the curious witch paused for a moment, checked her attire, and walked toward them.
The first floor was not completely dark at this time, only half of the gas lamps were on, making it a bit dim. On the table between Miss Miss Jia Lin Na and Luweiya, the three candles on the candlestick were blooming with light, and under the candlelight was a stack of divination cards.
They seemed to be doing divination and had already reached the final stage.
When Megan arrived at the table, Luweiya had already arranged 23 cards in 5 columns of 5, 4, 5, 4, 5 next to the candles.
Miss Jia Lin Na Cavendish looked at the cards with a serious expression, then flipped over the first one:
"The Thief."
She said the name of the card, then went to take the second one:
"The Shameless Clown."
"Not going back, I have already asked for three days off, saying that I suddenly had inspiration and wanted to go to other places to find signs of breaking through from the third ring to the first ring. Given that I provided important information to the association, I got a short vacation."
Xia De asked again, but didn't see Miss Megan Na on the side covering her forehead and shaking her head.
"If I don't stop you from continuing to speak, are you going to tell us how many hickey marks you still have on your body? Xia De, do I need to remind you of the elegance and decency that witches should have?"
"Thinking that at this time tomorrow, I might be on the central island of Gelinhu, fighting with unknown monsters, or lost in a maze cast by spatial power, makes me feel that life is really rich and colorful. Lailing, Audrey, are you willing to become Chosen Ones?"
"First of all, I am not a candidate for the Chosen One. Although I am a member of the family, even if the family becomes the Chosen One, my soul and consciousness will no longer exist. Secondly, have you forgotten what the Speaker said, that the probability of Council members becoming Chosen Ones is extremely small. We have other duties in the 'Whispering Poem Chapter'."
"I just want to remind you that the card just now is 'Court Clown', usually referring to villains, sycophants. If you draw this card, be careful of the appearance of... around you."
Saying this, Miss Megan Na also stood up. The night was deep, and it was time to go to sleep.
The chair slid from another table to behind her, she let go of Miss Megan Na's hand, sat down, and put down the candlestick in her hand:
"Then where are you staying tonight? Shall I help you open a room? There are many empty rooms in the hotel now."
"No, of course not like that... at least I am not like that."
She nodded slightly to Luweiya, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded to the Duchess of Delarion.
"And, have you realized who the two people in front of you are? Since you have done such a thing, you should also consider our feelings. Even if you don't feel guilty in your heart, snatching someone else's little snack shouldn't be so arrogant."
Lailing nodded and looked out the window again:
"I can't say, or rather, although I know something about this, I don't know much. The Speaker is the one who truly holds the secrets."
"Although the Speaker said she was persuaded by us not to come to Lailing Ye. But according to my understanding of her, she might suddenly appear at the most critical moment tomorrow night."
The three ladies were silent for a moment, then Luweiya began to tidy up the divination cards on the table:
"It's raining so hard outside, are you still going back to the temporary station of the Divination Association? I can arrange a carriage to send you, or I can send you, I want to chat with you on the way."
She tried not to let her tone sound very complacent, Miss Lailing Na shook her head:
Xia De plucked the hair by his ear to cover his embarrassment:
Luweiya then spoke:
Seeing the smile on the Duchess's face, the brown-haired witch frowned slightly:
The Duchess opposite smiled without saying a word, so Luweiya said again:
"Is it because of the rebellion at the end of the Seventh Era that the Council doesn't tell others about the true responsibilities of the Great Witches?"
Just now, she and Luweiya were discussing tomorrow night's matters. Since everyone is considering how to protect him, they have to consider how to protect Jia Lin, and someone has to make such plans and schemes. As for those divination cards, the last one is the real divination, and Luweiya is trying to help Jia Lin find a card. That card is quite rare and uncommon, even a Diviner can't find it."
Luweiya looked at you with a smile:
"Trust Lailing, just like trusting him in the past. Since he promised to protect you, he will definitely do it."
"That is Jia Lin's concern, not ours."
【Ten Thousand Phenomena Constant Card】 cannot be found by divination, otherwise the Divination Association would have collected eighteen cards long ago.
Luweiya cast a curious look, but Miss Lailing Na shook her head slightly:
"The probability is small, as long as you finish dating Jia Lin, remember to take a shower and spray perfume before going to the meeting, she won't find out."
"Of course."
However, they all believed in Luweiya's divination, so they didn't worry about it. Of course, Xia De still mentioned another thing:
"That's why I walked over and sat down."
Xia De asked curiously, the red-haired witch brushed her hair:
"The Speaker always knows everything... she wouldn't know about Jia Lin, would she?"
Luweiya watched this scene with a smile but didn't speak. Xia De, who was in a very good mood, didn't care about Miss Megan Na:
Miss Megan Na didn't reach out again, but signaled for Xia De to open the cards. So the satisfied witch temporarily put aside the hot memories she was still savoring when she came downstairs, let her mood calm down, and chose the card closest to Luweiya. After flipping it over, she threw it onto the table. The card face showed an arm holding a dagger reaching out from a slightly opened treasure chest.
Luweiya asked curiously, and then said again:
"Xia De, why don't you continue, what does it represent appearing around you?"
"But we have to try, after all, I really don't know what will happen tomorrow."
The purple-eyed girl curled her lips and didn't say much. Although the red-haired Duchess was still a bit dissatisfied, seeing her take the initiative to lower her head, she didn't say anything more.
Xia De said slowly, as if chewing on the sentence, but in his heart, he felt that it was enough to just tell this purple-eyed diviner who could never be seen through:
"Luweiya Anate is really an interesting lady. Guess, what kind of secrets does she have?"
Danglanglang~
"I have tried all night, inducing her to ask that question, but she insisted on not asking. I didn't expect that she was really waiting for you to ask. Look, she clearly didn't do anything, but was shown off by her again."
Xia De, who felt he was mentioned, flushed, thought of what happened just now, and moved his gaze away with pursed lips. Then he met Miss Megan Na's eyes, and their gazes separated immediately, both feeling like they were named by the purple-eyed diviner.
She stopped halfway, realizing that this was also the other party's language trap.
Miss Megan Na turned to look at the window, the violent rain turned the outside of the window completely white:
"The Speaker is always supervising us. Since the Third Era of the Witch Council, the strongest witch has always been the Speaker. With the existence of successive Speakers, none of us dare to have any small thoughts. Of course, how to ensure that every generation of Speaker can fulfill her responsibilities is not something we know."
"We are still here so late, of course, it's not just to wait for you to help Jia Lin fill and concentrate that small bottle of perfume before the battle.
Miss Megan Na looked at Xia De, who had a stunned expression on his face:
"What's more, even if I didn't get the best prize, besides that prize, I also got most of the other rewards."
Miss Megan Na looked up at her:
She is a witch who is relatively old in the Council, and she is almost the most familiar with the time Great Witch, so she can make such a judgment:
The coin landed on the table, Luweiya took a look:
"You have special responsibilities, I can imagine, after all, you monopolize the special space of the 【Witch Council】. But since you don't know your responsibilities, how do you prepare, or rather, how do you know you don't have special responsibilities?"
Although they were doing divination, after getting results of unknown significance, the three of them didn't discuss what this meant.
Saying this, she said goodbye to the two and walked toward the stairs.
"Xia De, we said from the beginning that Jia Lin would definitely refuse you."
"You and Luweiya are not resting in the middle of the night, you wouldn't be specifically waiting here to mock and satirize me, would you?"
Speaking of this, he thought of Jia Lin. The beautiful Duchess frowned slightly:
"What's wrong? The divination will have results soon."
Her hand was about to flip the third card, but when it moved under the table, it was gently grabbed by the wrist by Xia De, who was standing by the table.
"So, what was the last card you were about to flip just now?"
She asked, and the brown-haired girl asked back curiously:
It is said that because the witches of the Seventh Era abandoned their duties and only sought power and desire, it eventually triggered the internal strife of the Council, directly leading to the collapse of the Seventh Era. Therefore, by the Third Era, the Council had many changes, one of which was that the responsibilities shouldered by the Great Witches were only fully known to the Speaker."
"No, I don't need a new room, I live with Jia Lin. Tonight is the last night before the decisive battle. Since he is not going home, how can I let him sleep alone? Xia De, Jia Lin shouldn't be asleep yet, right?"
"Everything is unknown now, whether the Speaker comes or not is actually good for us."
The Great Witch of Wisdom and Knowledge answered this question:
Luweiya refused her:
She pointed to herself again, her eyes carrying some scrutiny:
