Chapter 2660

The Twisted Tree Hole has been cut off, but this matter is not over yet, because the soul offered by York Bronte is still in the coffin at this time.

Because it was unclear whether the coffin lid would shatter directly after pulling out the sword, Xia De let the sword stay in place for the time being, and then blew the butterfly-calling flute.

In the melodious flute sound, accompanied by the snowflakes in the sky and green light spots, the crimson butterflies did not know where they came from. The butterflies turned into two torrents and intertwined with each other, and only after circling Xia De's waist clockwise and counterclockwise did they turn into Grace and Helen in front of him.

"Good afternoon, sir!"

The girls in white and black dresses greeted with a smile, and then said to the other two:

"Good afternoon, Miss Beiya~ Good afternoon, Miss Emilia Sienod of the Moon Creek Clan."

Emilia had seen the Red Butterfly Twins during the Battle of Moon Bay, so they knew each other. Iluna nodded in response, and the blonde elf didn't even bother to refute this time.

"Sir, haven't seen you for two weeks. Is the matter in Vista Forest so busy?"

Helen held Xia De's hand, and Xia De hugged the sisters apologetically:

"I have been busy with various things recently. Grandma Cassandra should have told you about the situation here."

"Yes, yes, you are always busy. So what is the reason for finding us this time?"

"This coffin."

He briefly explained the origin of the coffin and hoped that the sisters could stabilize the spatial turbulence in it, so that Xia De could find the part of the soul offered by Bronte.

This is not difficult, because "death" and "space" are the easiest things for the sisters to deal with. However, they checked and gave a piece of good news and a piece of bad news.

"The good news is that if it's just to find a broken soul, it's easy to find."

Sister Grace said, letting a red butterfly from her fingertip fly into the coffin.

"The bad news is that although the craftsmanship of this coffin is very exquisite, because the time is too long, and more than one person has tried to violently crack the seal remaining on it, the situation of this thing is very complicated now, and we cannot fix it in a few minutes."

Helen in the black dress said, and at this time the red butterfly had flown out of the coffin, followed by an extremely illusory transparent figure. His appearance was very similar to York Bronte, or rather, this was the difference between a person in middle age and youth.

"Found it!"

Grace said with a smile, and Helen continued to add:

"Sir, I'm afraid we have to take this coffin back to Mibao for repairs. It will take about half a week, but we can also handle the other souls remaining inside by the way, and let them go to the edge of life and death to stay."

"That's fine, then I'll trouble you. I'm sorry for being busy recently and not visiting you."

This time there was no mistake, and the third paradox worm was indeed parasitized in Theodore Bronte's soul fragment.

This time, Sister Daifulin did not require the worm to be burned, and with both the Chosen of Space and the Chosen of Balance present, except for those Chocobos being somewhat frightened, there was no danger in solving the paradox worm.

And when Xia De tried to use 【Flute of Time】 to cast "Ancient Elf Stability Principle," he found that the damage effect of the spell was even more obvious than 【Staff of Yggdrasil】. But if it was just to stabilize time with this spell, the effect of the staff was better.

In short, although the third paradox worm also reached the second growth stage, it was successfully defeated, and its shell was also recovered by the elf girl to make paradox worm magic potion.

The coffin was taken back to Mibao by Grace and Helen and would be given to Xia De after repairs next week. In this way, Xia De gained an extra precious spatial alchemy item. And Bronte's incomplete soul spontaneously absorbed into it after touching the frozen soul core, which could be considered as achieving the integrity of the soul.

Xia De originally thought about sending this soul back to Tobesk, but since the soul was now complete, there might be a possibility of reading memories, so he temporarily handed the soul to the elf girl for safekeeping and would take it tomorrow morning.

In this way, Xia De ended his adventure in Vista Forest this Saturday. After saying goodbye to Emilia, who did not want to admit that she was Emilia, he invited Grace and Helen to eat at home, and the sisters of course readily agreed.

The four of them returned to St. Deran Square. Because dealing with the coffin in the forest also took a lot of time, it was already 6:30 in the evening when they walked out of the basement of their home.

This was Saturday night, so in addition to Luweiya who lived here recently, Dorothy was also here. Luweiya seemed to have guessed that it was definitely not just Iluna who came back with Xia De, so she specifically ordered more when ordering food from a restaurant outside.

The family of six had dinner together in the restaurant. After dinner, while the writer girl went to wash the dishes and Iluna was explaining the evening's events to the Diviner, the Red Butterfly sisters took Xia De and ran to the bedroom to linger for a while before leaving.

Of course, Xia De felt that this was Luweiya and Dorothy giving them time.

However, Xia De didn't just need to take classes that night. After dinner, he first sent Iluna back to the apartment and stopped by the Dawn Church on the way back.

The priest didn't dare to let Xia De take things out in the church, so he took him to the basement magic potion workshop of the church on the street:

"Eyeball? It looks like the right eye. Oh, I said why the skeleton this time could actually move. You know, eyes in mysticism have a different meaning than other parts, and this is the same for angel remains."

The priest took the eyeball in his hand and pulled out the wooden stake. The power of the eyeball was still stable, so he smiled and said to Xia De:

"If someone has the courage, like that Joey Barton, to implant this eyeball into his own body, then this will become the most terrifying magic eye in history. Seeing who dies is just a basic ability."

"Priest, don't joke. I don't believe anyone can afford such a heavy death curse."

"However, are there any other remains that do not belong to the bone category? I always thought that angel remains were all bones."

The priest smiled and shook his head:

"Except for the left eye, the others are bones."

He looked at the right eye placed in his palm again:

"Don't you want to repair an item that was shattered by the power of this right eye? Since you have brought back the right eye, I can make targeted preparations. This requires the power of the relic, plus the potion I prepared... Give me three days. I will give you the result in three days."

The last activation of the time key to the "Black Sand Wharf" is next Monday, so even if it is delayed for three days, it is not much. And then Xia De talked to the priest about the final outcome of the Dead Apostle. The priest was not surprised that Xia De could defeat the opponent, but only gave his own thoughts after hearing that the opponent's soul was frozen:

"It is not easy to extract memories from this kind of pure soul core. Since you said you have friends who are proficient in soul power, I don't need to help you. But it is a smart move for you to offer that soul to an Old God. This kind of special soul might cause trouble even if it enters death."

"Dead Apostles don't appear easily. Once they appear, every time it is a big deal. It is already very lucky that you can solve it so easily."

"It's not very easy... Well, priest, I'll wait for your good news. But now that I have this eyeball, have you gained any interesting power related to eyes? Like seeing someone's death date or something."

The old priest laughed again:

"Detective, seeing the arrival of death is not a very powerful skill. What is truly powerful is seeing the end. After all, death is sometimes not the end, but only the true end, once you step over it, you really can't turn back."

When Xia De returned home, Luweiya had already gone to the third floor to observe the stars, leaving both time and space for Dorothy. So the "class" continued this week, but before the class, "Teacher Dorothy" mentioned the topic of "Undying Fire Seal":

"Where do you want to leave that mark on me?"

She asked Xia De, who was stroking the cat, with a smile. Because Xia De hadn't come into contact with a Chocobo today, the petty cat didn't smell the scent of other creatures, so it performed quite obediently tonight, wagging its tail while accepting Xia De's stroking.

"Right arm."

Xia De said without hesitation:

"I can't control where you and Princess Lei Qianya want to transfer the mark afterwards, but at least I want to show my attitude."

The blonde girl smiled very happily and was quite looking forward to Xia De's performance when he saw two symmetrical moon marks when the two became one on the "Day of the Red Butterfly" next week.

The group meeting that Xia De missed today didn't say much important, so after talking about the moon mark, they started this class directly.

The study of the fairy tale "Crystal Light" has been going on for more than half a month. In addition to learning the spell 【Crystal Touch】 and letting Xia De understand multiple versions of the story, Dorothy even persuaded Vanessa to help, letting the Golden Dawn Opera Troupe, which is performing in Tobesk, rehearse this relatively niche play in preparation for the performance on the Day of the Red Butterfly next Thursday.

As for today, Dorothy brought some amazing things:

"Look~"

She placed the suitcase she brought on the table and opened it, and inside was a series of crystal products. Crystal dolls, crystal animals, crystal flower specimens, a total of eight pieces.

"Dorothy, you don't want to tell me that these are all crystals turned out by 【Crystal Touch】, right?"

Xia De asked in surprise, and Dorothy nodded:

"I knew you could guess it. Yes, I said that in the early Sixth Era when order was relatively chaotic, many criminals used this spell to turn living people or rare animals into crystals for collection."

"Because these unique crystals are not affected by the passage of time and can hardly be restored, those criminals' crystal collections have been passed down to this day."
