Xia De continued to ask in surprise:

"So this doll crystal figurine is actually... Did Princess Lei Qianya borrow this from Zalas Academy of Literature?"

The writer girl nodded:

"Yes, in fact, not only Zalas Academy of Literature, the Five Gods Church and the other two academies should also have many similar collections. I have introduced to you that unless the caster actively lifts it at the cost of serious injury to themselves, or reverses time, they are eternal."

Dorothy said, taking out the eight crystal products and placing them on the table. She specifically made a selection. The eight crystal products belonged to different categories, and their sizes changed in order.

Among them, the crystal statues of humans, golden silkworms, and alien creatures - water bison were changed in size by the academy's spells for easy carrying.

With the help of these crystals, Dorothy hoped to experience the meaning of "eternity" with Xia De. But compared to eternity, what Xia De felt more was creepy. The spell "Crystal Touch" sounds like a variant of "Petrification" at first, but once hit, what will be welcomed is eternal loneliness. Compared to death, this is a more terrible punishment.

Of course, Princess Lei Qianya and Dorothy are both girls who hate tragedies, so when learning new fairy tales with Xia De, Dorothy would not deliberately guide Xia De's thinking in the direction of tragedy, but hoped that Xia De could think more about what meaning the elf who was lured and greedy and finally turned into a crystal expressed.

And outside of learning, Dorothy also talked to Xia De about her and Princess Lei Qianya's recent affairs. Xia De has been busy with adventures in Vista Forest recently, and the girls also have their own lives.

For example, Dorothy is negotiating with the publisher about the distribution of the next "Hamilton Detective Story Collection." She is already a very famous author and has her own bargaining power in this regard;

And Princess Lei Qianya, because she got Galina's support, got a new job in the Kingdom's Ministry of Finance from her father. Although this is inconsistent with her original intention of intervening in the army, the Ministry of Finance is obviously more in line with her ideas than the army.

Along with this, Ajelina has not been idle recently. Before becoming a ring sorcerer, the little princess's daily life was to study various courses with royal tutors in the Yodel Palace, attend various salon banquets, go to the suburbs to relax with her mother or sister in her spare time, or attend public occasions as a royal princess.

But after becoming a ring sorcerer, King "Fire-Leaper" Larus III didn't care much about her, or rather, was no longer keen on making her a new royal marriage object.

Now Ajelina is temporarily assigned to Princess Lei Qianya's group by Zalas Academy of Literature, studying ring sorcerer courses under Princess Lei Qianya's arrangement every day, and is personally assessed and tested by Princess Lei Qianya.

Princess Lei Qianya even occasionally shares her official duties with Ajelina, which has led to the little princess not being idle since she returned from the Moon Bay area at the end of summer.

Of course, Dorothy does not sympathize with Ajelina. On the contrary, she strongly approves of Princess Lei Qianya's strictness toward Ajelina:

"Only in this way can Ajelina grow up faster."

She also sincerely treats Ajelina as her younger sister.

There is not much news from the Yodel Palace recently. The whole kingdom is preparing to face the upcoming winter that is destined not to be ordinary, and Queen Diana has passed the recovery period after childbirth and has often appeared in public with the two cute princes recently.

Dorothy said that Princess Lei Qianya would probably finish her recent busy work soon, so the Day of the Red Butterfly next Thursday can proceed normally if there are no accidents.

This night, Xia De also applied 【Undying Fire Seal】 to Dorothy according to the agreement. In this way, the Diviner, the writer, the two Cavendish, Adele, and Little Mia, the number of fire seals Xia De could perceive reached a full six.

In that dead water area, the fire-holding nun Brock of the Fifth Era did not explain this spell in detail, but Xia De clearly felt that with the increase in the number of fire seals, his soul seemed to have become warmer.

【Probably that nun didn't expect that you would have so many girls willing to be applied with fire seals.】

This is the answer given by "she," but it also shows that 【Undying Fire Seal】 should have more potential for spell development.

Saturday is usually Dorothy and Princess Lei Qianya's time, but because Luweiya was also at home tonight, near midnight, Luweiya, who had finished observing the stars and washing up, pushed open the door of the washroom, but found that she had actually walked directly into Xia De's bedroom.

The Diviner was surprised and looked behind her, then found that outside the bedroom door was still the washroom:

"Dorothy, can you already cut and bridge space?"

"Can you explain tomorrow morning? Come and help!"

The writer girl asked for help, so the purple-eyed girl walked toward them with a smile.

(Little Mia is running...)

Early Sunday morning, not only Tobesk, but even Vista City began to rain with misty drizzle. The heavy snow that lasted for half a day yesterday stopped at night, and although the snow on the streets melted easily, this caused the temperature of the forest city this morning to be at least ten degrees lower than Tobesk, already close to freezing point.

Xia De still remembered that Margaret made an appointment to meet him on the fourth floor of the Accord Hotel at 7:30, and he also told Dorothy and Luweiya about this this morning.

The girls who were very satisfied with last night allowed him to come to the forest with the cat without eating breakfast, and the elf girl who was sleeping in was not even up yet. When she was awakened by Xia De knocking on the glass, she was startled, and then repeatedly complained that Xia De shouldn't "peep" into a lady's bedroom.

Xia De left her breakfast and took away the soul core, and then continued to advance toward the city area without stopping. Only then did he finally arrive at the Accord Hotel at 7:20.

This was the earliest time he had arrived at the hotel, but this time he bypassed the third floor and went directly to the fourth floor. Room 401 is located at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor of the hotel, but it is also the largest and most luxurious room in the entire hotel—this is reserved for important figures such as royal family members.

There was no one in the corridor, and after Xia De knocked on the door sneakily, the door was opened immediately, and a hand reached out and pulled Xia De and Little Mia in together.

"Meow~"

The cat landed on the soft carpet with dissatisfaction, but Xia De had no time to comfort it, because Margaret had already offered her kiss.

Yesterday's events did not involve the Princess, but Xia De believed that she was also annoyed by this. But at least this morning Margaret seemed to be in a good mood. The duration of this kiss was shorter than the one on the sofa yesterday. After it ended, she pulled Xia De to sit on the sofa in the suite's living room. Xia De noticed that there were no maids in the luxuriously decorated room.

"Xia De, are you going to Willendale? It only takes one night to arrive."

The light in Margaret's eyes looking at Xia De seemed to be shining:

"I said that as long as you arrive in Willendale, I will give you a gift. Xia De, do you want to see the city where I grew up? It only takes a few hours to arrive, and then... I am yours."

Xia De sat on the sofa with his feet on the carpet, and Margaret had already taken off her high heels, curled up on the sofa, and hugged his neck.

"Why are you suddenly so impatient?"

Xia De asked with a smile:

"And you also know that I have to stare here often. Although it is okay to leave briefly now, I can only stay in Willendale for one night and have to leave, and I can't spend a few days of wonderful vacation with you."

The Princess also knew this truth, she let out a long sigh of disappointment, and continued to hug Xia De's neck:

"It's not impatience, it's just that I saw that Teacher Benanis had already done that, and I have a strong sense of urgency now."

"Don't compare with others... Wait a minute!"

Xia De raised his eyebrows:

"Do you know that Vanessa and I..."

Margaret then let go of his neck, hugged her curled-up legs with both hands, and looked at Xia De:

"After you left Moon Bay, didn't I stay in Moon Bay for a month to provide disaster relief after the disaster? During that period, Teacher Benanis walked in front of us almost every day wearing that glowing silver ring. Yes, every day."

As she said that, she also touched her finger with deep resentment:

"Seeing her appearance, everyone guessed some things in private. Later, I went to find Miss Lasers to confirm this matter. As a result, she... she invited me to personally experience a memory."

Xia De tried hard to keep his face from making a strange expression:

"Did Vanessa really share her memory with Siris? Doesn't she know that Siris is a memory manipulation master... And what does personally experience mean?"

"Just standing on the side and watching~"

She hugged Xia De's arm again:

"Since Teacher Benanis is a witch and dares to do this, what concerns do I have? And I see that Grand Duchess Galina Cavendish must have also done it with you, right?"

So Margaret was so enthusiastic when they met yesterday. It turned out that she was already prepared.

"Yes, Galina is the first witch I had... an intimate relationship with."

Xia De did not hide it, so the Princess complained with dissatisfaction in the background sound of Little Mia's meow meow meow~:

"I knew it was like this, those ladies of the Cavendish family... Look, those great witches ask us apprentices to follow the rules, but I see that they are the ones who don't follow the rules the most. Xia De, since you are not going to Willendale for the time being, I will wait for you in Willendale, and we will meet sooner or later."

"Are you leaving?"

Xia De asked, and Margaret nodded regretfully:

"I have already obtained the information in my brother's hands, and my father is waiting for me to go back."

"Then what is the conclusion? Is James Cumming your brother?"

Xia De asked again, and Margaret kissed his side face:

"You really know what I came here for. Then guess, Xia De, guess right and there is a reward: Is James Cumming the illegitimate son of my father?"
