Chapter 2508: Eighteen-Year-Old Teacher

The owl had been standing on the windowsill with its wings tucked in before Xia De appeared, and was now looking at this stranger who had suddenly appeared.

Xia De didn't know how owls judged beauty, but he had to admit that the one in front of him was the most beautiful and cutest owl he had ever seen. Or, if it weren't for Little Mia, this round-faced owl would definitely be the most beautiful animal the outsider had ever seen in this world.

And in the second that Xia De met its large, bright yellow eyes, he clearly saw a sense of scrutiny in the other's eyes.

With his pupils slightly constricted and a guess in his heart, Xia De asked the owl:

"Do you know Miss Danister? I am her student."

"Coo coo~"

The owl spread its wings and slammed directly into the unlocked window. The cold wind mixed with falling snow blew into the room, and the owl flew toward the snowy courtyard.

"Wait a minute!"

Xia De also walked quickly toward the window, then turned into a silver cat in the ball of light and crawled out of the window.

The owl flying in the sky saw this beautiful transformation technique, and while slightly surprised, it dived downward, flew over the cat that had landed on the snow, and then flew low toward the outside of the manor.

The owl flew in the air without leaving any traces, and the cat, with its light body, ran on the snow without leaving any footprints. The owl was originally worried that the cat wouldn't be able to keep up with it, but soon found that the cat jumped onto a big tree very nimbly, and didn't even shake the snow off the treetops when jumping between trees.

The destination was a small clearing in the woods outside the town, which was not far away.

The owl was the first to break through the defensive barrier set up by the witch, and when the girl in silver robes, who was preparing a ritual on the snow, stood up in confusion, she immediately saw the silver cat running in the forest.

The color of that cat was very suitable for hiding in the snowy forest, but she still found him at a glance. The cat jumped into the air and turned back into Xia De's appearance. Danister took off the hood of her robe with some excitement, revealing her red hair, and opened her arms to hug him directly:

"Xia De!"

"Coo coo~"

The chubby round-faced owl was flying above their heads, but the eighteen-year-old witch didn't pay attention to her friend:

"Xia De, I knew it, you would definitely come to find me!"

This seemed to be the first hug between the two. Xia De knew Miss Danister's excitement, but he had no time to care about this hug now. Because Xia De was looking at her face in surprise:

"Wait a minute, this is a bit wrong. You are indeed Miss Danister, but you..."

The person he was hugging was clearly an eighteen-year-old red-haired girl in silver robes, with a green face carrying a slight blush from excitement, and her eyebrows were incomparably similar to the mature lady he knew, but the age difference in appearance was at least ten years.

This was the same age as Angelina, but although the appearance was equally youthful and beautiful, the girl in front of him clearly had a more mature temperament.

"It's me."

Probably realizing that this hug was a bit inappropriate, the red-haired girl gently pushed Xia De away and took two steps back:

"I was worried before that you wouldn't recognize me."

"Is this... a time curse? Miss Danister, why are you only at the seventh ring now?"

The green girl shook her head, her rose-red eyes looking at her student:

"When I arrived in this era after being in front of that cupboard, I had already become what I am now. My body returned to eighteen, and it will not grow again. Although knowledge and memory still exist, they have become a bit blurry, and my power has returned to the year I was eighteen."

"Is it a time curse? Forever eighteen? I hope the ring warlock level won't also be forever fixed at this moment."

"Could it be that you were eighteen in 1763?"

"What are you talking about? I wasn't even born at this point in time."

Ritual materials were scattered at her feet, and it looked like she was trying to "save herself" in her own way. Xia De, who was shocked by the fact that Miss Danister had "rejuvenated," calmed down and didn't continue to ask:

"Other things can be discussed later, the passage can only be maintained for twenty minutes. Miss Danister, do you still have things to deal with? If not, let's return to that manor now!"

The eighteen-year-old girl looked up at the owl above her head, and then said:

"Let's go back directly, there is nothing that needs to be dealt with. How long have I been missing? I have stayed here for a month."

"This is your fourth day missing. The academy asked me last night if I knew your whereabouts. I arrived locally at midnight and only found that cupboard this afternoon."

"Xia De, you..."

"Let's talk when we get back."

The chubby owl landed accurately on Miss Danister's shoulder. The red-haired witch's long sleeves swept, destroying the unprepared ritual on the ground. After dealing with the traces here, the two held hands and ran toward the town.

Miss Danister at the seventh ring couldn't fly yet.

Before long, they returned to the study in a hurry. Xia De, who had been calculating the time, bent down quickly and pulled open the door at the bottom of the cupboard. He reached into his pocket and was surprised to find that all the relics he carried were there:

"Traveling through time in this way, it doesn't forbid carrying relics?"

But now was not the time to think about this. He took out the time key and pierced the door panel with a fierce force:

"May the World Tree protect me in infinite time~ Okay, it can be used! Miss Danister, hurry!"

He turned around and reached out to the witch. The witch, who confirmed that there was no problem with the items she carried, also reached out and grabbed him, and the owl still stood firmly on her shoulder.

Click~

Xia De's left hand turned the key inserted in the door panel, and the familiar sound meant that this short journey was over.

The darkening of the surrounding light meant that the scene in the broom closet was returning, but the "return" did not end completely and stopped.

The scenery of the "broom closet" and the scene of the "manor study" overlapped. Xia De was already standing in the broom closet at this time, and in his eyes, the "manor study" was like a phantom. He himself had completely returned to the "present," but Miss Danister and the owl were still standing in the "manor study" with illusory bodies.

"What's wrong with this?"

At the position where their hands touched, in Xia De's view, the body of the illusory Miss Danister began to solidify, while his arm began to become transparent.

The twenty-minute countdown had already begun. Xia De, who was surprised, couldn't care about much, and subconsciously pulled the witch toward his direction with force.

This was not very simple, because he felt like he was dragging a big mountain. And what was more serious was that as he exerted force, although Miss Danister's body was indeed slowly becoming solid, his own arm became transparent faster.

【Outsider, this passage only allows you to use it normally.】

"She" whispered the reason for the mutation at this moment, and the eighteen-year-old red-haired girl in the study naturally noticed the mutation of his arm, so she immediately struggled to break free from Xia De's hand, but found that Xia De's strength was surprisingly great:

"Let go of me, otherwise you won't be able to leave either!"

The destiny ring behind Xia De appeared again. On the destiny ring, which was smaller than usual, the spiritual light of the 【Space-Time】 spiritual rune illuminated the two and the chubby owl. So he felt that the speed of pulling Miss Danister became faster, but this was still not enough. At the same time that Miss Danister's right hand entered the "present," his entire right arm was forcibly dragged into the past.

"What time is it now?"

Suddenly, Grace, who was standing in the dark corner of the broom closet, asked. The two sisters were holding hands at this moment.

Xia De immediately understood:

"It is the Sixth Era of the General Calendar, the 19th day of the Month of Harvest, Friday, 4:57 PM! Oh~"

At the same time he said the point in time, the force that tried to attract Xia De to Miss Danister disappeared suddenly. Because Xia De didn't have time to retract his force, Miss Danister fell into his arms forward, but all the unreality on her body faded away.

The owl also came to the broom closet with her, and the phantom of the study around disappeared completely.

Danister Gustav returned to the Sixth Era of 1854.

"She" in his ear reminded softly:

【Outsider, you have gained some insight into "direction."】

"Xia De!"

The witch didn't blame Xia De for his "rudeness," but turned her head in horror to look at the corner of the broom closet. The silver ball of light floated above everyone's heads, Grace and Helen stood in the shadows, their beautiful faces shrouded in a mass of scarlet mist.

The terrifying whisper element of the top-level angel-level relic scared the owl so much that it didn't dare to move, so the two sisters spoke together:

"The person has been found for you, so we will leave first as agreed. Just, don't forget the price you have to pay!"

Which meant don't forget to go to Mibao to date them.

The voices of the two sisters overlapped as if they produced an echo. The weird sound and the way their faces were twisted while holding hands made people feel incomparably chilling.

Then they lifted their skirts and bowed elegantly, stepped back, and disappeared directly into the darkness. The whisper element faded. Speaking of which, after becoming the Chosen One, they could clearly hide their own whisper element perfectly, so it was definitely intentional just now.

"Xia De, what did you pay to bring me back?"

The red-haired girl, who didn't know what the terrifying relic was, asked Xia De. Xia De was still guarding against that "owl," and seeing her looking at him with burning eyes, he said casually:

"This is not important, this is my own business. As long as you are safe, none of this matters." ===== CHAPTER 2509 =====

"This is not important; it is my own affair. As long as you are safe, none of this needs to be minded."
