Chapter 2440

~10 min read 1,907 words

Wearing pajamas, eating apples, and drinking tea, Xia De didn't ask who had changed his clothes. He just finished the apple, and his eyes looked at the cuff of his right hand again. Afterward, he rolled up his sleeve and looked suspiciously at his arm. A golden pattern similar to a tattoo was clearly engraved on his arm; it was the pattern of a giant dragon.

Xia De touched the pattern with his left hand, and "she" said softly:

【This is the last power left by the descendant of the fourth child of the Ancient God of Light - Dragon of Radiant Light. It helped you complete the Sword of Light · Third Form; this is the final thank-you gift.】

The pattern disappeared silently, and the miracle elements completely merged into Xia De's soul.

【Outsider, you have obtained the blessing of the "Fourth Child of Light":】

【Effect 1: All mortal dragons will know your nobility;】

【Effect 2: Light control ability enhanced.】

【Effect 3: Obtained the legal principle to rule Moon Bay (greater than the seven major families possessing dragon scales).】

"Legal principle to rule Moon Bay? What do I need this for?"

Xia De asked suspiciously, never thinking about staying in Moon Bay to manage this place in the future, but perhaps Miss Belindell would be interested.

"I remember, when I devoured that drop of 【Dragon-Eating Demon】 divinity, it seemed like I gained an extra miracle, right?"

He picked up the snacks again.

【Yes, miracle 【Dragon Feast】, obtain corresponding power by devouring giant dragon hearts. Because you possess "Gluttony," the efficiency of devouring will be higher. If you were in that sacrificial grounds, you would have obtained more power.】

"What power? Enhancing one's own physical fitness?"

【This is the most basic enhancement. "Dragon Feast" will help you obtain corresponding breath and dragon traits, or techniques engraved in the soul.】

Xia De shook his head. Just as he had never thought about devouring living people to gain power through 【Blood Wine Brewing】, he didn't want to gain power by devouring highly intelligent giant dragons.

The miracle - 【Dragon Feast】 was just a souvenir for him to commemorate this Battle of Moon Bay and the divinity he had absorbed. Whenever he saw this, he would think of this thrilling Sunday.

"Obtaining that drop of divinity at the time also seemed to make me completely master the transformation technique - Dragon. This is good news; perhaps when there is time, I can fly out to sea with Miss Ilayse and Fiona."

Besides the blessing and the 【Dragon Feast】 miracle, there were many other gains this time.

First was naturally the formation of the miracle 【Misuo · Doomsday City Tobesk】, and successfully using the Philosopher's Stone to enhance the "Language of Sublimation" to pull Miss Isabella over.

The terrifying power of that strange Misuo was secondary; the most important thing was that on one hand, Xia De took this opportunity to absorb that drop of divinity, and on the other hand, it also made Xia De believe that letting Adele Isabella from the past come to the present world completely was not impossible.

"But when Galina and the others return, how should I explain Adele's matter?"

He had seen the witches gather together and call upon the power of the Ancient God - 【Chaos Witch】 at the time, playing a huge role in restraining that god during his "fainting" period.

But he didn't know yet that Adele had already explained her origin herself.

【How do you want to explain it?】

"That Adele was summoned by me from the future. To prevent a time paradox, her existence cannot be revealed to others, especially herself."

Coincidentally, Adele herself explained it this way.

Outside the Misuo, another gain was naturally two spiritual runes.

The "Miracle - Guidance" obtained by guiding the seventh Chosen One to hold the Chosen One ritual belonged to the Seven Rings, which also gave Xia De the possibility of promotion. As for the "Miracle - Dark Night" spiritual rune born from "darkness" when he obtained the blessings of everyone and the cat in death, it was a complete surprise.

When he said "I say - Dark Night Descends" after waking up in the ruins, strictly speaking, it wasn't the dark night converted by using the god's power in the divinity-burning state, but a miracle created by simply relying on the power of the Chosen One and his own power. It was the power belonging to the mortal - Xia De Hamilton.

From here, one could also know what the true power of the Chosen One meant. Xia De believed that if the power to convert the dark night didn't come from an Ancient God, then the 【Dragon-Eating Demon】 could have turned the dark night back into daytime on the spot.

But the fact was, He didn't do that, and this obviously wasn't because the god deliberately wanted to fight the "God of Silver Moon" in the night to prove His power.

"So, I need to learn the miracles of 'Guidance' and 'Dark Night' recently... remember to remind me."

【Okay.】

"Guidance" was strongly related to the Yellow Moon, and "Dark Night" was even more closely linked to the moon. Since the Battle of Moon Bay had ended, Xia De felt he could also have a period of leisure to slowly choose suitable miracles for himself.

"Oh, and the matter of Miss Gao De coming at the end of this month or the beginning of next month."

Miracles, Misuo, divinity; besides these, Xia De hadn't forgotten the "Eternal Light" he had devoured.

He still remembered the surprise he felt when Mr. Albei obtained guidance through the "Hope Diamond" and ended the agreement with him to exchange power.

The Chosen One of Justice practiced his own justice, just as he had been doing his whole life, and Xia De obtained a wisp of the light he possessed.

Miracle - Power of the Earth · Blessing of All Things, inherited from an ancient knight of an unknown era, he sealed the demon with divine arts. Afterward, this power was passed on to Miss Sherry Knight and Xia De through that broken stone sword, and Xia De passed it on to the coroner.

This power, like that light, had been protecting the world through constant inheritance.

And the wisp of light obtained by Xia De was also completely "swallowed" by him like those powerful forces of the past, becoming a part of the power he held.

"Soul strength increased, light resistance increased, these aren't very important; what's important is the power related to light... Moonlight Greatsword, Moonlight Slash, Moonlight Wheel, these all count, right?"

【Of course.】

"This is good news, and the blessing of the fourth child also has the effect of enhancing light power."

He really wanted to test how much effect this kind of enhancement had, but it was obviously not suitable to use aggressive miracles in the room.

So Xia De moved his fingers, and afterward, without anyone moving the gas lamp, the light in the room gradually dimmed.

The ladies looked up at the lighting fixtures but didn't find anything unusual. Next, in the continuously dimming light, countless fine silver-blue lights drifted out from Xia De's hands, floating together in the room where the light was fading, as if a galaxy had been moved here.

"How was this done?"

Fiona asked curiously:

"I didn't feel any abnormal element changes; how are you manipulating these moonlight beams?"

"This is a change in the basic spell - Light Spell, like... my racial talent."

Xia De also found it difficult to describe the light control ability that was now close to an "instinct":

"I can extinguish any light source I can see at will, and I can also cast moonlight at any time."

The dragon girl blinked:

"That's truly amazing. When I was at your level, at most I was helping Teacher Feilian organize the library, or cleaning the room and taking care of the flower garden."

"Miss Delage, may I ask what level you are?"

Ajelina asked curiously. She only knew that the dragon-born witch in front of her could transform into a powerful red dragon, but didn't know the specific situation.

"Thirteen-Tier Witch and Thirteen-Ring Shushi."

Fiona said, feeling a bit embarrassed. The originally active big tail also hung down completely and stuck to the ground beside her black leather shoes:

"Ever since I parted ways with Xia De in the City of Eternal Night last time, I have only made progress with the help of the teachers. The path to demigod is still very far away from me... I am not a genius like Teacher Feilian and Teacher Olanod, and can only do some minor work."

The little princess looked at her young face and didn't have the heart to ask how old she actually was. She just didn't continue this topic, obviously having been hit hard.

The banquet on the deck began after all the witches returned from the council. It was already 7:30 in the evening. Luweiya felt quite regretful that Yin Yi Yi Lu Na couldn't attend this celebration banquet when it started.

The church would probably also think that this Battle of Moon Bay was very successful, but because the number of civilians who died in the city was not small, the church side wouldn't hold public celebration activities. At most, they would just make tonight's dinner richer, and everyone who participated in the battle would receive a large bonus and travel allowance.

Xia De really hoped that Yin Yi Yi Lu Na wasn't sitting in the church garden with a teacup, lonely, thinking about what games the people on the ship were playing.

And because of the "new skills" Xia De mastered, he cast thousands of bright silver "dust" toward the deck through the "Light Spell" again before the banquet started. Coupled with Miss Ilayse deliberately weakening the lights on the deck to match the atmosphere, this made the deck at this moment truly seem to be twinkling with a galaxy.

The venue for this banquet was provided by Miss Ilayse, while the ingredients and other expenses were sponsored by Miss Belindell, who was a local. The Outsider didn't know how rich the countess was, but the expenses for this banquet obviously exceeded most of the banquets he had experienced.

When the banquet started, he originally thought this was to celebrate that the city belonging to Belindell had survived, but later he realized belatedly that this was clearly also a welcome banquet for Miss Feilian and Fiona.

Xia De clinked glasses with the countess by the railing on the deck. The slightly bright deck gas lamp and starlight illuminated her flushed face blown by the sea breeze.

"Unicorns, demigod witches, grand celebration banquets, dragon-born, elves, pet cats; besides you, this place is increasingly like the feast of the Witch Emperor of the Fifth Era."

Xia De raised his eyebrows, and the smiling witch continued:

"Of course, compared to the banquets without you in the Fifth Era, I prefer the days with you now.

Xia De, thank you for saving Moon Bay. My hero, are you willing to accept my gift?"

The golden eyes under the reddish birthmark looked at him with a calm smile, so Xia De asked:

"What gift?"

The countess stuffed the wine glass to a passing maid, then hugged Xia De's neck and kissed him, using action to tell Xia De the answer.
