Chapter 1940

The atmosphere of the party was very lively. Although there were no meals, at least there was champagne. After the ladies holding the trays dispersed, Miss Benanice was complained about by other great witches because she asked Siris how much weight a piece of cake would add to her at night. Iluna also ate her share of the cake, and then found Xia De again with a wine glass:

"Thank you for your birthday gift, I am very happy tonight, you are all very good."

After clinking glasses with Xia De, because of her excitement, she drank the wine as soon as she looked up, and then accidentally choked. Luweiya helped her pat her back helplessly, while Xia De, who had taken back Little Mia from Tifa, asked with concern again:

"When did the church arrange for you to return to Tobesk?"

"Soon, within this week. I am not responsible for this kind of finishing work. If it weren't for the fact that I had too much contact with the Caller of Gods this time and needed to submit a detailed report, I could actually leave now. But next Monday, you will definitely be able to see me in Tobesk."

Luweiya nodded and looked back at the direction where the great witches gathered:

"Regarding the Battle of Green Lake, after you go back, the three of us will talk in detail. Although we are cooperating with the Witch Council now, some things the witches can know, and some things the three of us decide. In addition, you did a great job this time, Iluna, without you this time, it would be difficult for Xia De to handle this matter alone."

The girl celebrating her birthday immediately straightened her chest slightly, but restrained the expression on her face:

"Well, I also have a lot of things to tell you. Oh, and the gift the church promised to the Caller of Gods, I have already heard from the church side. Should it be given directly to the Witch Council, or should Xia De contact the church directly when there is a chance?"

"Let the Witch Council come."

Xia De said, and looked up at the night sky with Luweiya and Iluna. The three moons had emerged, and above the island without too many lights, the sea of stars was vast and the stars were shining:

"Every time the story of the Chosen ends, the heart can relax a little. But only this time, I always feel that the mood is very heavy."

"Because Laplace Howard left things to you?"

Luweiya asked, and Iluna also looked at Xia De curiously.

Xia De shook his head slightly:

"I got a bunch of things for free, I should be happy... It's probably because I feel that there are more challenges to face in the future. He told me some things, I don't know if it's true or false, after returning to Tobesk, I want to talk to you carefully."

Iluna and Luweiya needed to know about the end of the world.

They nodded together, and Xia De asked suddenly:

"Speaking of which, Luweiya, can you still find special coins recently? The diviner left one, and I want you to divine whether the method to solve Dorothy and Princess Lei Qianya's problem is true or false. He gave me some alchemical cards, I think they should be useful."

The girl with purple eyes shook her head gently:

"I once said, don't rely on special divination for everything. Go and ask those red butterfly sisters, they will give you help."

Xia De nodded gently, but couldn't see Grace and Helen again. They didn't like to communicate with others, probably took the cake and went elsewhere.

"You say, Laplace Klein Howard, what kind of person is he really?"

Iluna asked suddenly, seeing Xia De and Luweiya both looking at her, she explained embarrassedly:

"Just suddenly thought of this question. I am already eighteen, I have long understood that there are no absolute good people and bad people in this world, only children would think so. But that diviner... he is different from everyone we have met, he seems to be really finding a way out for this world, even if he was defeated by Xia De and was about to die, he still left everything behind and became a stepping stone for the new 'Savior'."

"No, no, I am not a Savior."

Xia De shook his head hurriedly and touched the head of Little Mia on his shoulder. This cat was still angry because Xia De didn't give it any cake just now:

"I prefer to describe it this way: we are all exploring the truth of this world, he took the wrong path, but before perishing, he gave his remaining fire to me, letting me go further."

Luweiya said:

"Reflection and summary are indeed very necessary. As for your question, Iluna, you have to find the answer yourself. Time will prove everything. After ten or twenty years, or hundreds of years, you will naturally understand what kind of person he is to us and to this world. Of course, from my current point of view, he is not a good person, nor is he a bad person like Ivan Darkness."

Iluna nodded thoughtfully, and Xia De smiled and said:

"He died normally, so theoretically, whether it is the 【Soul Cemetery】 on the third floor of my house or the 'true death,' I can call his soul. If you are really curious about this person, go to those places, call him out and talk to him."

Luweiya and Iluna both smiled, and the girl with purple eyes even teased:

"Just like what you did to Sparrow Hamilton?"

"No, no, I didn't mean to disturb him, those were all accidents... Speaking of which, I haven't seen where Drout Giles went. Is he still at the old Edwards house?"

"Yes, I heard he is in the room where Last Edwards once lived."

Luweiya turned to look at the direction of the town in the distance:

"I don't want to use a specific relationship to describe him and Last Edwards, but... he is a very infatuated man."

Iluna asked Xia De:

"You asked the church for the Heart of the Living Dead, just to prevent this from happening, right? The Heart of the Living Dead allows you to enter the true death through the 【Soul Cemetery】 and permanently bring out a soul."

Luweiya frowned slightly, wanting to say but not knowing how to speak, so Xia De helped her say it:

"But if I do this, how am I different from Joey Barton back then?"

Iluna wanted to say that Xia De used normal means, and it was a means allowed by the Ancient God, so it would not cause the out-of-control of the 【Gap between Life and Death】. But she frowned slightly again, the Chosen of Balance, realizing that Xia De was not talking about the means, but about the balance of life and death, and whether it would really be broken because of this.

"Xia De always thinks so much, it's really remarkable... But you must have a way, right?"

She asked with expectation, and seeing Xia De nod, she smiled. Iluna also liked stories with happy endings, even if it wasn't her own story.

"Then, let's clink glasses together to celebrate Iluna's eighteenth birthday."

Luweiya suggested, Iluna hurriedly took another glass of wine, and seeing Xia De and Luweiya looking at her with expectation, she coughed twice and said:

"I hope that every year in the future, we can celebrate with a toast like this. May we walk to the end together, and may the story of the Whisper Poem also have a beautiful ending."

The three clinked glasses, the crisp sound of glass collision did not echo too far under the night sky, but the smiling faces of the three were reflected on the glass.

Xia De felt that he probably guessed the wish Iluna just made, maybe it was correct, maybe it was wrong, but it didn't matter.

"Seeing this scene, are you still thinking, if you were the first lady to meet Xia De, what would the situation be like now?"

Miss Aurora, who was standing by the table with the cake watching them, asked Miss Galina beside her. Everyone else was drinking champagne, only they were drinking red wine.

The red-haired witch shook her head noncommittally:

"It's meaningless to think about that kind of impossible thing. Besides, being able to be satisfied with what you have already obtained, instead of always thinking about what you can't get, makes it easier to feel happy."

"Compared to the past, you have changed a lot."

Miss Aurora commented pointedly, and Miss Galina did not deny it:

"Guess who will be the next one after Megan and Audrey?"

This topic also aroused Miss Aurora's interest, and she looked at the moon in the sky:

"No, no, it shouldn't be her."

"And it won't be Your Excellency the Speaker, stories always say that the most powerful enemy should be placed at the end."

"It's not good to call the Speaker an 'enemy,' but you're right, it's best for the Speaker to know this at the end. Galina, you also noticed, once Xia De meets and 'charms' another great witch, we will have seven people here."

Miss Aurora said softly, and Miss Galina raised the corner of her mouth to a perfect arc, but it was Miss Benanice who walked from behind her and said what they wanted to say:

"The witches around the knight are about to exceed half."

Miss Aurora held the wine glass and shook it slightly, and Miss Galina suddenly asked the two:

"Speaking of which, when guarding the hotel, I was knocked unconscious by the coma gas in the interstellar meteorite and saw my biggest nightmare. Do you want to see what my weakness is?"

Both great witches nodded curiously:

"Of course, but what would you be afraid of?"

"Let Miss Siris Lathers help me share the memory."

The duchess said with a smile, not at all like she was talking about her own fear. She wanted to see how the witches would view this matter.

Iluna couldn't stay here for too long, and after eating the cake, she had to leave, so Luweiya planned to wait until they all returned to Tobesk and then make up a birthday party for her with only three people at No. 6 St. Deran Square, which was also considered to celebrate the end of the Battle of Green Lake.

Although Iluna kept pushing back, even Little Mia could see that she was actually happier than anyone else.

However, before Iluna left, Luweiya found an excuse to leave, letting her be alone with Xia De for a while. After the two watched Luweiya's back go away, Iluna looked at Xia De, who was holding a wine glass and wearing a formal suit, and didn't know what to say for a while.
