Chapter 2259

As for the fact that the Priest is also clearly a candidate for "Death," this is not strange at all. Iluna even fits the three identities of "Balance," "Death," and "Earth," and Xia De even thinks that "Sun" might also have her.

Luvia hasn't said anything yet, but this doesn't mean Priest Augustus isn't a candidate. Candidates with lower rankings, even Luvia, can only discover them after a certain period of time... Xia De decided that after going back, he would have a good talk with her.

"Is it possible that the heretics of the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 are also Chosen Ones? Where are they righteous?"

Miss Sylvia asked from the side; they didn't notice the "exchange" between Iluna and Xia De.

Iluna answered this question, and the answer was very consistent with her identity:

"Justice is relative. In the forest, in order to save a friend who was about to starve to death, I risked my life to kill a tiger; I am righteous. But for the tiger, it went out hunting for its own children, yet was killed by me, so I am evil."

Thus, Miss Bernice sat up straight and looked at Xia De; she was the only 12th-tier witch present:

"Don't you have a way to identify Chosen Ones within a certain range? Try to determine first whether the Elf Miss temporarily staying at Bella's place is one. If she really is a candidate, we will have more room for choice in this battle of the Chosen Ones."

"Alright."

Xia De nodded; he had many coins in his hand now, fully enough for divination:

"Currently there are only five swords, which doesn't mean there will only be five in the future... Speaking of which, after I came back this afternoon, you have been studying this light sword and didn't tell me how Miss Ilithyia's talk with your Speaker went; yes, I remember her surname is Isabella."

That blue-eyed lady said with a smile:

"What else could happen? Naturally, it was to retain my seat as an auditor; Miss Isabella welcomes me to become a member of the Council. However, after accompanying you to get the sword tomorrow, I will have to leave Moon Bay temporarily."

"Why?"

"Miss Adele Isabella asked me to go to the New Continent to pick up the Nun who holds the fire and the Great Witch of Light and bring them to Moon Bay. They have already finished their business in the New Continent, and for me to travel between Innsmouth Port in the New Continent and Moon Bay Port in the Old Continent, a day or so is enough."

"Their business is finally finished?"

Xia De asked in surprise:

"Then after Sister Dervlin and Miss Aurora arrive in Moon Bay, will they leave first and then come back, or stay locally directly?"

"Shivi will stay directly; her followers are all by her side, and she herself also accepted Margaret's invitation to come here. Politically, this is also a warning from the Royal Family to the Seven Great Families, telling us that the Royal Family has plenty of candidates to manage this city. As for that Nun, she has to return to the headquarters of the 【Spirit Cultivation Sect】 first."

Miss Belindell said.

"That's good, be careful on the way; I heard that inexplicable storms often appear on the shipping routes to the New Continent."

Xia De said to the blue-eyed ship lady again, and the latter shook her head with a smile:

"I am not an ordinary ship; in fact, if it weren't for the special situation in the New Continent, I could actually appear directly at the docks of any suitable waters in the Old Continent through the ability of space movement. Xia De, if you have a need, board my ship now, and I can immediately carry you to Coldwater Port, or those port cities on the East Coast."

This counts as unlocking a brand-new space movement method for Xia De besides the "Ancient God Statue," but there are not many cities that meet the requirements, and Xia De has no intention of going to new cities recently.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Tifa and the others brought the Empty Bottle Fruit back. The three Great Witches performed witch secret arts, intercepted a portion of the sword in Xia De's hand and turned it back into light, filling it into that apple-shaped glass bottle, and thus soft white light radiated from the glass bottle.

The "Empty Bottle Fruit" itself has the effect of weakening the influence of light on the outside world, and coupled with the fact that these special lights are themselves weakened products, it basically will not cause harm to the outside world.

It was also at this time that Xia De finally dissipated the sword in his hand, and then watched the witches excitedly go to find Emilia for testing.

As the only person who has pulled out the "Sword of Light" so far, the Elf Miss is considered the candidate most likely to pull the sword again. Now that there is special light, and this light was once condensed into a sword by Xia De, Xia De feels that she probably won't have time to discuss novels with Angelina these few days.

As for Xia De, seeing that it was getting late, he did not stay overnight that day, but instead held Little Mia and took Iluna, left the city from St. George's Stone Bridge, and then let Iluna touch the Ancient God Statue in the dragon nest, returning to Tobesk with him.

Even though it was already close to ten o'clock in the evening, Xia De still ran to Luvia's apartment and brought her to St. Deran Square.

On the way back, Xia De also briefly told Luvia about what happened today, as well as the situation of the five Holy Swords.

And when the two returned home, Iluna was standing in the kitchen looking at the portrait in the snow on the wall; this was painted for Xia De by Hela Osenfort at the Osenfort Manor.

Little Mia was standing on the dining table with her head down eating something; seeing Xia De and Luvia return, Iluna even explained:

"Xia De, just now your cat kept running to the kitchen. I saw that she seemed to be hungry, so I gave her some cat food."

"This cat eats a lot every day, but I don't see her getting fat or growing up; sometimes I even wonder where the things she eats go."

Xia De said while pinching Little Mia's little belly at the dining table, which provoked a dissatisfied meow from the cat.

The three sat down in the living room, and steaming teacups were placed on the coffee table. Iluna liked this atmosphere, especially since there were no witches here.

One 【Pirate's Blood Money】, one 【Thor's Wrath】, four 【King's Eggs】, and two 【Coins of Wisdom】, a total of eight special coins were placed on the coffee table.

"Now that there are finally enough clues, what should we divine first?"

The purple-eyed girl was also very expectant; regarding the Chosen One of Light, results were probably about to come out.

"I am most concerned about Priest Augustus."

Xia De stroked the cat lying on his lap:

"Luvia, are you sure that at least as of last Saturday, you didn't discover that the Priest was a candidate?"

"Didn't discover."

Luvia shook her head:

"Don't waste coins divining the Priest's matter; we can just go to the Dawn Church to find him tomorrow morning. However, I won't be able to see Emilia for a short time, so it is indeed necessary to confirm her matter."

She picked up a 【King's Egg】 and flicked it lightly into the air. As the coin spun in the air and turned into fly ash, Luvia also opened her eyes.

"How is it?"

Iluna asked with concern.

"Interesting, she indeed is. But the candidate's ranking is quite low, probably fourth or fifth."

Xia De nodded:

"As expected, Emilia herself does not have dragon bloodline, and she hasn't shown much talent related to light. Luvia, rest for a while or continue?"

"No problem, continue, what to divine next?"

Iluna spoke up:

"Divine the 【Dragon Feast Sect】. Determine whether there really is a candidate among those heretics, and if so, whether the ranking is high."

Thus, another 【King's Egg】 turned into fly ash; this time the news wasn't particularly bad either:

"There indeed is one, and it's not a human. The other party's ranking is slightly higher than Emilia's, but it is definitely not the first candidate; I can guarantee this point."

After she finished speaking, she frowned slightly again:

"But I cannot see too specific information about the other party; that candidate of the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 is strange."

Xia De and Iluna were slightly relieved; if it's not the first candidate, things are much simpler, otherwise this time they would have to think about how to kill the Chosen One again.

Looking at the remaining six coins on the table, Xia De considered and asked again:

"Can you determine which Holy Sword will eventually be held by the first-ranked Chosen One?"

Luvia shook her head lazily; two consecutive divinations made her a bit tired:

"No, this directly involves the identity of the Chosen One; at least at the current stage, it cannot be divined."

"Then divine the situation of John Flynn of the New Continent Mutual Aid Society, that ring warlock holding the 【Sword of the Wind King】. No, not now, you rest for a while first."

Thus, ten minutes later, another 【King's Egg】 was thrown out, but this time the coin fell straight down.

Xia De and Iluna looked at Luvia in surprise, and the purple-eyed girl said softly:

"It seems we have caught a big fish; he is definitely a candidate, and the ranking is very high, otherwise it wouldn't be impossible to divine. I cannot obtain information about this person unless you are willing to risk consuming all the coins now."

"There are six left."

Iluna looked at Xia De, and Xia De knew what she meant:

"Since the Chosen One is difficult to divine, then divine those Holy Swords. The whereabouts of the five Holy Swords, only the 【Angel's Right Arm】 and 【Blood Sorrow】 are not clear. However, tomorrow Miss Ilithyia will take me to find the 【Angel's Right Arm】; although Miss Ilithyia said that retrieving that sword requires fighting an Angel-level relic that is almost human-like, but... let's divine the location of the Sage-level 【Blood Sorrow】."

Regarding the positioning of relics, especially the positioning of such high-level relics, in the current era, only Luvia can do it easily.

It was just that after that 【King's Egg】 was thrown away again, the coin did indeed turn into fly ash, but Luvia, who opened her eyes, frowned deeply:

"The divination result shows that the sword is not ownerless. But I actually cannot see the sword's location and the holder's identity information at all; I can only vaguely know that the other party is not human.

Therefore, the holder of 【Blood Sorrow】 is probably either the first candidate or the second candidate. However, after all, I divined the sword and not the person, so if you are willing to use three or more of these five coins, there is a certain probability that you can roughly locate the sword's position. Xia De, do you want to try?"
