Chapter 2148: With Belindell

~10 min read 1,892 words

Although it had been difficult to arrive at Saint Byrons with a real body rather than a projection, Xia De did not linger here, nor did he go to visit other parts of the academy. After discussing with Miss Danister about staying in touch and the method of transporting the unicorn, he hugged the cat, passed through the door constructed by the 【World Travel Manual】, and returned to his home.

The photos of the house used to create the door were also sent back by Miss Danister through the pages of the poetry manuscript.

Seeing that it was already past ten o'clock on this Friday morning, it was too early to prepare lunch, but returning later would waste time, so Xia De simply brought Little Mia to Moon Bay.

By the time they arrived at the Belindell Manor near eleven o'clock, the cat was still throwing a tantrum at Xia De. The specific manifestation was that it lay motionless on Xia De's shoulder and did not respond to Xia De's petting. So, in order to tease it, while following the maid who came to greet him through the manor courtyard, Xia De deliberately let the maid stop for a moment, and then he hugged Little Mia and walked toward the two cats kept by Belindell Manor that were lying on a courtyard bench.

Little Mia immediately bristled.

Originally, the witch had agreed with Miss Belindell to come in the morning to collect the ritual materials for summoning the evil object, but after waiting for a long time for Xia De, she had to go out to do her own things first. But when she received the news at noon that Xia De had finally arrived at the manor, she brought the maids back home.

When she saw Xia De in the study, she walked quickly toward Xia De, opened her arms, and hugged him:

"Oh, you finally came. We agreed to meet in the morning, but I waited for you all the time and was worried all morning. I said last time that you can find me at any time, but I cannot find you at any time. If you really encounter danger in the future, I won't even be able to use divination on you..."

She pursed her lips, held Xia De's hand, and looked at him. Seeing her appearance, Xia De knew that she had run all the way up after getting off the carriage.

"This time I encountered some troublesome things, which delayed the time. I'm really sorry. On Sunday, a friend of mine is coming to Moon Bay."

Xia De said then.

"Oh?"

The countess asked in surprise:

"Is it someone from the Golden Dawn? I haven't heard Vanessa mention it."

"No, Miss Bernice and the others don't know her either. The other party is a student from Saint Byrons, coming here for off-campus practice."

Then the witch was even more surprised:

"You know, before I met you, I once made a prophecy that a non-human thing walking out of the dragon's nest would affect my destiny. After that, I asked Matilda to contact my acquaintances at Sexas, so I also knew about the summer arrangements of the three major academies this year. If I remember correctly, the one-month off-campus practice of Saint Byrons Comprehensive Academy this year is about to end its second week. Why is someone still coming at this time?"

"Um..."

Xia De considered it and decided to tell the truth. He glanced at the blonde maid beside him, who knowingly took the other maids in the room and left temporarily, without even asking for the countess's opinion. But the witch didn't care; she was waiting for Xia De's answer.

"That girl was targeted by cultists at the original off-campus practice location. After solving the trouble, the academy let her change places."

"A sorceress?"

The eyebrows below the lip-red birthmark lifted slightly:

"Continue, is the other party a dragon descendant?"

"Of course not, she is a pure-blooded elf, and she has some noble lineage."

Miss Belindell blinked, not expecting this answer:

"An elf, there haven't been any elves in the Moon Bay area for many years... Do you need me to help you receive her? Take her around the city, or help find clues for the off-campus practice mission."

It could be seen that after hearing that it was not a "dragon descendant," the witch lost interest in Emilia. Even if it weren't because Emilia was also a woman, she wouldn't have offered to help Xia De receive her.

"No, no, I didn't mention her for that reason. Please don't arrange for anyone to contact her. In fact, Miss Belindell, even you must absolutely not contact her."

Xia De said very seriously, and the countess let go of Xia De, signaling him to sit on the sofa and continue:

"Why, is she your elf lover?"

"Don't say that! According to the traditions of the elves, Emilia is not yet an adult."

Xia De emphasized again, and the witch held the teacup and smiled without speaking. She liked watching Xia De explain like this.

"She is entangled by something very terrible, more troublesome than the 【Doom Sect】. The cultists I said I helped a friend deal with a few days ago were them, but it later proved that they were just a smokescreen."

"Then what exactly is that cute elf girl entangled by? An angel-level relic?"

The countess continued to ask, and Xia De turned back to confirm that the door had been closed before lowering his voice and saying:

"More troublesome than that. Ancient evil spirit: Demon of Doom - Fanalus."

Because Emilia was not in Moon Bay now, Xia De could say this name.

Crack!

The expensive porcelain teacup was directly crushed into pieces in the witch's hand:

"What?"

She widened her golden eyes and stood up directly, while Xia De shook his head:

"Don't be so excited, but it seems you know that thing? Great, I thought I would have to explain it again."

"I am a diviner, how could I not know this kind of thing? Are you really sure..."

Xia De held her hand and let her sit back beside him:

"Not long ago, when I was communicating with a professor of mine at Saint Byrons, she asked the same question. Well, I'm very sure. But don't worry, I have a way to deal with it. Miss Belindell, you don't need to intervene in this matter. I will arrange for Emilia, and it will probably be solved in a week or two."

But the Great Witch of Destiny did not believe his words at all, her golden eyes staring at him:

"Are you really sure that you fully know what you are dealing with?"

"Of course I know, an ancient evil spirit that has never been sealed, its birth time is even close to the earliest demons. Only the ancient degree of the 'Pus of Man' that appeared in Coldwater Port and Tobesk last summer can be comparable to it, but these are not problems."

Xia De took out an ancient iron ring from his pocket:

"Look, 【Demon Hunter Seal】, I have been fighting demons. And you also know that 【Night Watcher】 is the nemesis of this kind of existence, not to mention, I know a quite powerful demon hunter... more professional than me. So far, we have cooperated to seal five demons. Although it may be a bit arrogant to say so, this is our 'daily work'."

The excited witch calmed down a little, but she still had doubts:

"But why Moon Bay?"

Xia De smiled:

"Yeah, why Moon Bay... Saint Byrons let that elf girl entangled by the demon go to Moon Bay. The process and decision-making method in the middle were not affected by any power, at least my professor friend said no, but it just happened to be Moon Bay.

My professor friend has some prestige at Saint Byrons. Saint Byrons is temporarily pretending not to know about this, but will transport an underage unicorn to help that elf girl suppress the doom curse before I get rid of the demon. You probably don't know, she encountered four relics in just one week."

"Unicorn?"

The witch's eyes lit up, and Xia De remembered that for the top witches of the Fifth Era, riding a unicorn out was a very face-saving thing, even the witch emperors were proud of it. Only witches without conditions would choose chocobos, and the most shabby witches would ride horses.

And now in the Sixth Era, whether it is a chocobo or a unicorn, it is not something that can appear in the normal civilized world, otherwise the front of Miss Galina's carriage team every time she goes out should be a unicorn.

"Yes, a unicorn. But I want to remind you that that little unicorn is also a member of Saint Byrons, and it is a member of a large unicorn population, so it is impossible for you to keep it... If you want to see it, after the demon matter is over, I can discuss it with Emilia, but that would expose your witch identity."

Miss Belindell fell into entanglement, but then suddenly smiled and asked Xia De:

"Have you ridden a unicorn?"

"Of course, it is still friends with this cat."

Xia De patted the cat on his lap, and the orange cat, which was lazily waiting for lunch, turned over and lay in the other direction.

That little beast did not dislike Xia De, and even liked Xia De very much.

"You, a unicorn? Are you really a man?"

Xia De had heard this question many times, but at this moment he still nodded. The witch then smiled and leaned close to Xia De. Seeing that Xia De did not blush and dodge this time, she leaned close to his lips and pressed her own lips onto them.

Seeing that Xia De still did not dodge, she hugged Xia De's neck and kissed him for real:

"Then let me try."

She did not forget to hand the ritual information for summoning the evil object to Xia De. These pieces of information were originally difficult for her to obtain with her local power. After all, neither the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 nor the Orthodox Church had that spirit of sharing, so the Great Witch used some unconventional means. She knew that these materials were very useful to Xia De.

After that passionate kiss, she called Miss Matilda again and handed the prepared documents to Xia De. The blonde maid saw the blush on her master's ears that had not yet faded, and guessed what had just happened.

"A very terrible point is that I found out the news at the church. The Orthodox Church obviously believes that the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 has more than just the ability to summon phantoms of evil objects."

The Great Witch of Destiny reminded, and Xia De was shocked holding the document paper:

"Can they summon the main body of that evil object from the deep sea?"

The witch nodded extremely cautiously:

"This requires a lot of arrangements and sacrifices that we cannot imagine, but the church believes that this is not entirely impossible. Do not take this information away. Destroy it immediately after memorizing it. This information must never be leaked." ===== CHAPTER 2149 =====
