Chapter 1947

"The reason why that symbol appeared in the ancient ruins might be a bit complicated."

Xia De shook his head; the ritual array in the Night Temple was most likely the work of the long-haired Luweiya, but he also didn't know who left the traces at the Moon Tower on Mount Karas:

"Although Laplace Howard is dead, he left some materials, and I think there might be answers in them."

"But where are those materials?"

Miss Dannister looked at him and asked, and Xia De opened his mouth:

"This... should be in the hands of the God-Caller; perhaps the diviner appreciated him very much before he died, so he left all the materials to him. When he finds time to finish reading those materials, perhaps he will be willing to share them with us."

"Then, please ask the God-Caller to be diligent; he cannot spend his days mixing in the banquets and powder piles of big cities, delaying those important matters. Although sorceresses are good, important matters cannot be left undone. I guess the materials and books left by that diviner are not few; if the God-Caller is willing to study in depth, he can also learn some things."

The librarian lady said, and Xia De, who understood her meaning, nodded:

"I think he will study hard. Oh, you can't get into the old Edwards mansion now, but I think you can get into the underground space... you can go tomorrow morning; the core ritual array of the Edwards ascension ritual, as well as the remaining roots of the burned blood-red giant tree, and some books are there, you can all go and check... it's best if only you go in."

Now the ownership of the island is in the hands of Megan and Audrey, and Xia De just needs to tell her.

Miss Dannister pursed her lips:

"If I remember correctly, the ownership of this island now seems to be in the hands of the Witch Council. Those witches... there is such a saying that the God-Caller is female."

Although most people don't know the secret of the witches, the thirteen-ring sorceress in front of her is quite clear about the witch's curse.

"The gender of the God-Caller is not important, is it?"

He asked, and seeing Miss Dannister looking at him more and more hesitantly, he continued to add:

"I am male, this point is certain."

Miss Dannister, who was a bit confused, took a deep breath and picked up the teacup and took a sip:

"Then there is one more important thing; can it really be confirmed that Laplace Howard is dead?"

She temporarily put aside the complex gender issue and the issue of Xia De and the witches:

"This is also the church's question now. After all, no one saw his end, and now his body cannot be found. Although the divination of the Divination Society believes that he is probably dead, Laplace Howard is also a very powerful diviner; divination alone cannot determine his life or death."

"He should be dead..."

Xia De recalled the scene where the other party turned into a card and drifted away; at such a close distance, his perception shouldn't be wrong:

"That can be confirmed again later, but he should be dead."

【Soul Cemetery】 can determine a person's life or death; although Xia De also didn't have his body, fallen leaves, withered tree roots, and blood-red broken branches after the giant tree collapsed could be found everywhere on this island.

Miss Dannister nodded gently and stopped talking about this topic:

"The other professors of St. Byrons will probably stay on this island for a period of time; you also know the uniqueness of this island. Even if this island doesn't belong to us or the church, we must confirm that the seal will not be opened again before we can rest assured. I won't stay; I will return to school tomorrow or the day after tomorrow; the school still needs me... what ring are you now?"

In the steam mist behind, Xia De's life ring slowly emerged:

"Seven rings; the core spirit rune of the six-ring sublimation words is Whisper-End."

Miss Dannister didn't ask how he advanced, but handed another book she had beside her to Xia De:

"You chose the middle-ring sublimation words 【The Shadow of the Silver Moon Guides the Final Direction】 for yourself; now you have 【Shadow】 and 【End】, and you are still missing 【Direction】 and 【Guide】... clearly this is the spirit rune related to space. Take this book and read it; it should be helpful to you."

The title of the book is "Mind Compass"; if it weren't for knowing that Miss Dannister wouldn't joke, Xia De almost thought it was some kind of chicken soup magazine.

"The original text of this book is a stone tablet from the Third Era unearthed in the ruins of the Principality of Moswar, known as the "Book of Labyrinth." Anyone who reads more than a quarter of the content will have their spirit attracted by a strange labyrinth in their dreams and sink deeper and deeper. The book in your hand is only one-sixth of the original content, and it has been translated and transcribed many times, so the danger is almost non-existent. Whether it is 【Direction】 or 【Guide】, it is possible to obtain them through this book."

She pointed out, and Xia De thanked her softly, his mood very complicated. Miss Dannister really treated him as her student, but Xia De... Xia De also really treated her as a teacher:

"I will study hard."

The sorceress directed the teapot on the side to fly up and poured a cup of tea for Xia De:

"Then please ask the God-Caller to read the materials left by Laplace Howard as soon as possible; I hope there is content we are interested in. Otherwise, investigating the whereabouts of the teacher will have to start from other directions. The collapse of the tower is definitely not a normal phenomenon, but what is it because of..."

The two drank tea like this and continued to talk in the small tavern in the town. During this time, Xia De also took out some snacks to match Miss Dannister's black tea, and in the curling heat and fragrance, he spent a warm Friday afternoon with this red-haired sorceress and the cat that lazily waited for Xia De to feed it.

By the time it was near evening, the sunset slanted into the tavern window, and the slanted sunlight divided the cover of the book on the counter into two parts of light and dark, and also made the face of Miss Dannister, who was already fair-skinned, face the light as if she were glowing herself, and this meeting finally ended.

In addition to talking about Xia De's academic progress in the afternoon, the focus was still on the events in the Green Lake area. Many things that Miss Dannister couldn't see clearly from her perspective had already been figured out by Xia De in the two months of investigation.

This afternoon, it could be considered that Xia De reviewed the experiences of Laplace Howard for more than two hundred years for Miss Dannister, as well as the impact he had on the entire region. Of course, Miss Dannister was most interested in which ladies in the Edwards family Xia De had a relationship with that exceeded friendship. And in order not to be discovered that he was related to the witches, Xia De only introduced the people of the first four generations in detail, and the fifth and sixth generations were only briefly introduced.

"Then let's talk here for now."

Seeing that it was getting late, Miss Dannister stood up and took the initiative to say goodbye to Xia De. After putting away the tea set, books, and the cat that was full and unwilling to move, the two returned to the empty streets of the town together.

The sunset shone from one end of the street to the other; it should have been the busiest time in the evening, but the town was still empty. For some reason, facing this scene, while marveling at the beautiful scenery, Xia De also felt a faint sadness:

"The wish of two hundred years finally turned into the scenery at this moment."

"It's all in the past; Edwards has gone far away, look forward, there are still many things waiting for us in the future."

She instructed Xia De again, telling him to read more books and run around less recently, and then she turned her back to the large red sunset clouds in the sky and waved goodbye to Xia De:

"Then we will see each other at the academy, Xia De. Don't forget what you once said, after the Green Lake area events are over, you will participate in my elective course. I will send you the course schedule soon."

The crimson sunset clouds were not as bright as her red hair blowing in the wind at this moment. Miss Dannister's mood seemed very good, just like Xia De at this time.

And after seeing Miss Dannister, when Xia De returned to the Green Lake Inn for dinner and told Megan to open the underground area to Miss Dannister, he suddenly felt that the number of people at the table was much less, and then realized that the Battle of Green Lake was really over.

There was nothing to do in the evening; he hadn't been home for many days, so after greeting the great witches in the inn, he took Mia back home, which made Megan, who had finally decided to do something because Miss Miss Jia Lin Na had left, a little disappointed. But thinking that Xia De still had to come to handle other things in the next few days, she began to prepare for herself.

And Xia De, who returned home, walked out of the basement, saw the familiar first floor of his home, passed the narrow but very safe stairs after turning on the lights, and finally arrived at the living area on the second floor with the cat in his arms.

He thought there would be a layer of dust on the table or floor, but fortunately, No. 6 St. Theresa Square was still as clean as when he left.

He thought about whether to go to the train station to meet Miss Miss Jia Lin Na's group who were about to arrive, but thinking that newspaper reporters and local nobles would go to meet them, he didn't have the idea of joining in the fun.

After he finished tidying up the bedroom, sat by the bed with Little Mia in his arms, sorted out those relics, looked at the neat bed, the head of the bed just filled by three pillows, and the neatly folded blankets and quilts, he relaxed his expression, leaned against the head of the bed, felt the familiar bed with satisfaction, and looked at his bedroom:

"Home is still better."

He was clearly very energetic just now, but after sighing, he felt his eyelids heavy. Then, for some reason, he closed his eyes leaning against the head of the bed before he knew it.

The Battle of Green Lake ended on Thursday, he slept for a whole day, then attended Iluna's birthday banquet in the evening, and then spent the first half of the night with the girl with butterfly wings behind her. After talking with the witches at midnight, he spent an interesting second half of the night with Miss Xierweiya, Miss Beiya, and Xilisi.

He didn't rest all day today, and now, he finally fell asleep.

"Meow~"

The moon decorated his window, and the cat decorated the bedroom inside the window.

Noticing that Xia De had been leaning against the head of the bed for a long time without moving, Little Mia patted Xia De's arm with her paw. Raising her head, her large amber eyes saw Xia De with his eyes closed, so she knew Xia De was asleep. So the cat also opened her mouth wide to show her teeth and yawned, then curled up into a cat ball beside Xia De and closed her eyes.

But suddenly the cat's eyes opened again, and she saw Xia De's right arm flash, and silver waves appeared on the surface of his clothes. Then a silver transparent arm pulled the neatly folded blanket to the side and carefully covered Xia De with it.

In the late spring season, there is no need for very thick bedding.

The cat looked at that arm and was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't understand what it was. But seeing that the arm just covered Xia De with the blanket and disappeared, she didn't care.

"Meow~"

She curled up comfortably again and lay down. The cat likes this home, and likes Xia De even more. And now, after the messy adventure, they finally returned home again.
