Chapter 2439

"It's not hard work, it's not hard work; this is what I should do."

Fiona responded politely to this very beautiful black-haired maid, very amazed that the witch apprentice of the Sixth Era was actually so beautiful:

"Are you all Xia De's maids?"

The two head maids didn't even need to exchange thoughts through eye contact, and said with a smile together:

"Yes."

As for Xia De, he had indeed just woken up from sleep. The fainting in the afternoon was due to excessive exhaustion, and after waking up, besides receiving an unusually enthusiastic kiss from Luweiya, who had just left, and an teary-eyed expression of "don't do this again, okay," he also heard from Fiona, Emilia, and Ajelina about what happened after he fainted, as well as the celebration banquet to be held on the deck in a while.

The last moment of Xia De's memory was the moonlight greatsword the size of a mountain that he had turned into, which was then held by Yin Luna to completely sever the possibility of the 【Dragon-Eating Demon】 descending divinely again.

That was the third form of the Sword of Light, and the awakened him still remembered the feeling of turning into light completely. But that kind of power didn't come from Xia De himself, but from the Ancient God 【Dragon of Radiant Light】, so this didn't belong to him.

And just like everyone thought at the beginning, that Ancient God artifact really had an extremely special attack effect on this "Nameless Eldest Son." That kind of restraint effect wasn't just as simple as a father hitting a son or fire melting snowflakes; Xia De even felt that the Artifact - Sword of Light was born for this moment.

Of course, this was just an illusion.

It was still Sunday today, and Moon Bay City was still carrying out disaster relief work. The lives taken away by the earthquake and the great tsunami made the entire city sad, but at least this was far from the extent of the "Moon Bay destruction" that people had imagined.

The conspiracy of the evil cultists led by the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 failed completely, and even the 【Dragon Feast Sacrificial Grounds】 wasn't taken away by the cultists, but continued to float above the clouds above Moon Bay City.

To prevent citizens from discovering it on days without clouds, the church was busy using illusion rituals to hide it. Of course, the Orthodox Church hadn't yet figured out how to move the location of this sacrificial grounds.

But the one that suffered the most losses this time was definitely not the 【Dragon Feast Sect】, which was close to annihilation; after all, as long as the god they believed in still existed, sooner or later they could make a comeback.

The one that truly suffered heavy losses was the 【Light-Seeking Seminar】. These lunatics, who had tried to calculate everyone, tried to jump out to pick up cheap gains at the end of the "Battle of Moon Bay," but the price was the loss of the two pillars supporting the entire Ringed Shushi organization, namely the Thirteen-Ring Shushi "Light-Chaser" and that small statue of the Ancient God "Dragon of Radiant Light."

After the "Light-Chaser" fused with the peculiar light and turned into an evil object transcending the Thirteen Rings, Fiona, while using her tail to roll up a teacup and hand it to Xia De, confirmed with a good mood again that the other party had completely disappeared under the attack of the demigod Mana Feilian. As for that small statue of the Ancient God, it was placed on the bedside table next to Xia De.

Seeing Xia De looking at it, Fiona didn't dare to use her tail this time, but held the statue very carefully with both hands and handed it to Xia De.

The statue was made of bronze metal, and after touching it, a layer of faint light immediately appeared on the surface.

"She" naturally knew what Xia De was thinking:

【No divinity. The function of this Ancient God statue is to strengthen the perception of light, and when carried on the body, to enhance one's own light power.】

Xia De nodded, and then asked Difa and Matilda:

"Speaking of which, do you know where Mr. Ptolemy Albei went now? That coroner with black hair and a brown hooded robe."

Difa, who was bending over to arrange the slippers neatly by the bedside, answered:

"That gentleman left with the holy sword and his stone statue after the great battle ended this afternoon. He said if you want to find him, just go to the old place."

Matilda, who was directing the maids to put the changed clothes into the cupboard, added:

"That gentleman also said that so many people died in Moon Bay today, so his work will be very busy recently, so you can find him there at any time. Oh, he also said he has no interest in greeting people from the church."

Xia De nodded, basically understanding what Mr. Albei wanted to express. He wouldn't take the initiative to contact people from the church:

"Is Miss Feilian here now? Is she still on the deck?"

Xia De asked again, but it wasn't Fiona, it was still Difa who answered him:

"We met sisters Helen and Grace in the corridor just now; they said they were going to the deck to chat with Miss Feilian."

Xia De couldn't help but smile while holding the teacup, and then looked at Fiona:

"How long are you staying here? Can you stay for a long time?"

The big-tailed girl stood by the window, the tip of her tail tapping the ground beside her black leather shoes, and she was also smiling:

"Teacher Feilian didn't say either; actually, we didn't expect it to go so smoothly. But we should stay for a period of time; after all, it was hard to come here."

With her two hands held together in front of her, she said with some embarrassment:

"Teacher Feilian and I both want to see your life... it was hard to come here without a time limit this time."

The girls asked Xia De not to think too much and eat some snacks to fill his stomach first; he could ask anything at the banquet in a while.

"Why didn't you ask me to check my body before attending the banquet this time?"

He was pressed by Difa on his shoulders to sit up against the head of the bed, and a tray was placed on his knees. He was just asking a question jokingly, but didn't expect everyone to look at him with a smile:

"Xia De, your body has already been checked."

Because he sat up straight, the cat that was originally lying on the quilt ran to his pillow to lie down.

Xia De looked at the maids who were all laughing, then turned his head to look at the cat. The cat curled up its body, opened its eyes wide, and looked at him very obediently. Xia De tilted his head slightly:

"Speaking of which, in my memory, this cat seemed to have become very, very big. I shouldn't have remembered this wrong, right?"

Someone in the room laughed, and Ajelina said very excitedly:

"I saw it on the ship at the time! Little Mia was so amazing then; it became as big as little Liana, no, even bigger, wearing armor, and spat out a golden sunlight beam. Luweiya said later that if it weren't for little Mia, the ruins of Belindell Manor would have disappeared then."

"Teacher Feilian helped you check little Mia's physical condition."

Fiona, who was in high spirits, said again:

"Teacher said that it was little Mia who swallowed half a Philosopher's Stone, which activated the 【Child of the Sun】 bloodline in its body, and resonated with that set of armor that also had solar power, so it could erupt with that kind of powerful strength. She also guessed that the armor and little Mia both had power from the same source."

This was correct; the "Lion Armor of Light" and the cat both received the blessing of the sun at the temple altar in the "Gravel Gold Sand Sea." Although this explanation made sense, Xia De's eyes became sharp again as he looked at the cat's big eyes.

He reached out and touched the cat's head. The latter narrowed its eyes and didn't move, looking like it was enjoying it very much. This appearance didn't look like the one that had "shown great power" as described by Emilia at all.

"Little Mia, can you still change?"

While saying this softly, he poked the cat's belly again, but the cat just narrowed its eyes and "meowed" to enjoy the petting.

Xia De, who was looking at it suspiciously, asked cautiously in his heart:

"How is it?"

【There's no problem, but it needs to rest recently.】

"Xia De."

The elf girl probably saw Xia De's suspicion and said in a low voice:

"I probably know what's going on..."

Seeing everyone looking at her, Emilia's face turned slightly red:

"We all thought you were dead at the time, so everyone... suddenly became so amazing. A total of four holy swords appeared at the time, and I pulled out that sword again, and Luweiya said it was the second stage. I think little Mia should be more concerned about you than me, so it must have inspired power it hadn't discovered before, just like me."

As she spoke, she put the peeled apple on the tray on Xia De's quilt.

"Emilia, you worked hard this time too; you did very well."

Xia De said, and Emilia pursed her lips and looked aside, actually not wanting to show an expression that was too happy.

Xia De looked at little Mia again, sighed, and then gave the cat a small cookie without filling:

"An ordinary cat, just swallowed half a Philosopher's Stone, resonated with a set of armor, and in a state of extreme sadness, could actually block a god's strike?"

【It is not ordinary, half a Philosopher's Stone is not ordinary, and the armor that was brought back to the present after paying a price and being allowed by the Tree Father is even less ordinary.】

"I was about to think that 'Xia De's sacrifice' was a necessary condition for triggering some special effect."

Xia De sighed again in his heart, watching little Mia eating the small cookie very obediently:

"But regardless, Mia, you worked hard this time too."

"Meow!"

"Xia De, do you want to see your armor?"

Emilia asked again at this moment, and Xia De shook his head, picking up Emilia's apple while taking stock of his gains this time in his heart.

The "Battle of Moon Bay" ended here. Counting the giant dragon matter Fiona mentioned after he fainted, the result of this divine descent event was unexpectedly not bad.

This wasn't to say that Xia De thought the citizens who died in Moon Bay today were a negligible price, just that compared to the complete destruction of Moon Bay in the prophecy, compared to the ending of Moon Bay in the "past life" revealed by the long-haired Luweiya, the current result was really quite good.

【But the prophecy left by the descendant of the fourth child of the Ancient God was ultimately fulfilled.】

"She" said gently, and Xia De agreed with "her" statement:

"It's just that after this prophecy was fulfilled, we did other things... so if you are dissatisfied with the play, besides directly changing the content of the performance, can you forcefully demand an encore for the story?"

"She" laughed in Xia De's ear. Xia De didn't ask what she was laughing at, and he also revealed a smile himself.
