Chapter 3289

Duo Luo Xi had already told the sisters about Xia De's recent experiences on the distant sea island yesterday, so Xia De didn't need to tell them again.

But they didn't know yet that Xia De already had a plan to help the writer lady and the princess change their destiny.

They continued to play chess, and Xia De shared his harvest about "ink" today and Luweiya's idea about "rewriting the snake slough." Even they thought it was very bold.

Helen had been to Fatumonte Island many years ago, but they had never seen the snake slough Xia De took out. And as for "destiny," they also had their own unique insights:

"Sister Luweiya said something like 'destiny is a double-edged sword,' right? Good things and bad things always appear alternately, and the result of one thing is always the beginning of another.

If we hadn't wanted to escape the family's responsibilities, we wouldn't have gone to the Night Manor banquet; if we didn't go to the banquet, we wouldn't have met you; but similarly, if we didn't go to the banquet, we wouldn't have fallen into that god's trap and thus the reincarnation in Sikar Mountain; if we hadn't waited and reunited again and again in Sikar Mountain, then we wouldn't have been saved by you in the end."

Grace commanded the "chariot" to jump forward three squares:

"So for the story of destiny, temporary good luck and bad luck don't need to be cared about at all. The story hasn't reached the end, and no one knows what the final ending will be. As for Duo Luo Xi and Lei Qianya's affairs..."

She stopped talking:

"Sometimes the existence of constraints is not necessarily a bad thing."

"What does this mean?"

Xia De asked, and Helen gave the answer:

"Because the two are bound to each other, they can be so special and so dazzling. If they lost the constraints and gained complete freedom, and the two-in-one became a separated destiny, could they still shine as they do now?"

"So losing the characteristics of mutual fusion and soul swapping, their power will weaken?"

Grace on the other side of the coffee table shook her head:

"This shouldn't happen. But they carry destiny, so they are unique. Just like witches carry so-called curses, but they are also powerful because of this... Sir, don't consider so much, just go do what you want to do. You have gathered so many people around you. When those key choices need to be made, although no one can replace you in making choices..."

"... but we will all give you suggestions."

Helen said with a smile, while Grace reminded somewhat dissatisfied:

"Helen, since sir is back, your chess moves are getting worse and worse. Can you be more focused?"

"Sister, sir is back, who wants to play chess~ anyway, I can never beat you."

No one disturbed them at home that night, and Xia De spent the night belonging only to the three of them with the red butterflies. Probably the only one dissatisfied was Little Mia, but the cat was already used to this, and the dessert gifts brought by Grace and Helen became part of the cat's breakfast the next morning.

Grace and Helen were equally in awe of destiny, and their long life experiences made them know better what "destiny" meant. For Xia De's exploration on Fatumonte Island, the only suggestion they gave was not to change himself because he cared too much about "destiny"—

"There is no such thing as destined, sir. The future is a projection of the past, and miracles are the accumulation of inevitability. You, sitting under the stage, just need to applaud and wait for the actors to fawn over destiny. The stage is actually not that island, but the whole world."

(Little Mia is running...)

On Friday morning, Xia De woke up between Grace and Helen. When he opened his eyes, he realized that there were other people in the house because he heard the sound from the kitchen.

And when he walked out of the bedroom lazily, he found that the liveliness of the house far exceeded his imagination.

Miss Jia Lin Na, Vanessa, Sylvia, and Megan were all there, and Luweiya and Duo Luo Xi also arrived early. Tifa was leading the maids to prepare breakfast for everyone, which was obviously a big project.

"Good morning, it's only... 6:40, what are you doing?"

"You are going to find the demon today, so we all came."

"Is this matter very special? It's not the first time I've been an opponent of a demon."

Xia De stretched, seeing that the girls in the living room and dining room were already dressed up. They must have gotten up very early today.

"But this demon is exceptionally powerful, isn't it?"

The girls didn't think about participating in the action with Xia De, but since Doctor Shi Nai De could not show up but act as support, they could naturally do the same.

"No, no, if it's not absolutely necessary, it's best not to have direct contact with the demon. I have Emilia by my side, and Doctor Shi Nai De following behind is enough. If you are really worried, then at most let Vanessa come over too."

The thirteen-ring Earth Witch showed a smile:

"I have no opinion, Xia De's arrangement is very appropriate."

So everyone looked at her, and finally Luweiya admitted that what Xia De said made sense. But even if only Vanessa followed far behind Xia De and Emilia, others had to go to Fatumonte Island together:

"We are in Sylvia's tower, which is safe enough. Although the probability is very small, if something really happens, we can provide support at the first time."

And for the brand-new snake slough Xia De brought back yesterday, Luweiya thought it was better to use it.

At present, once the snake slough is used, it only belongs to someone, and there will be no possibility of being snatched. She already has a blank snake slough in her hand, so there is no need to keep another one.

"Then who should use the snake slough?"

"Miss Larsen or the unicorn Ellie, they are both participating in the action today. Giving it to Miss Stella Larsen can ensure that when you encounter the calamity of destiny again, there will be one more Ringed Shushi who can safely launch an attack; giving it to that unicorn might be able to know its background in advance.

I still don't approve of you using this kind of snake slough; there's no need to jump onto the stage so early."

Luweiya seemed to have thought about these things long ago, and Xia De nodded and decided to let Miss Larsen use it first.

Before breakfast, Xia De went to Saint Byron's again to bring Emilia over. Seeing so many people in the house, the little elf sighed as if she had returned to the days on the "Radiant Messenger":

"The adventure is about to begin again!"

And in the middle of breakfast, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na actually came too. However, Xia De didn't intend to let the eighteen-year-old girl appear on that island now. Yin Yi Yi Lu Na was the true "protagonist" of this era in his eyes, and her appearance would definitely cause a huge change in the situation. The current situation is treacherous, so it's better for Yin Yi Yi Lu Na to stay in Tobesk for the time being.

The action time agreed with the church is twelve o'clock at noon. Although the demon is not afraid of the sun, people always think that the battlefield during the day is definitely better than at night.

So Xia De has been discussing the action plan with the ladies at home all morning. Grace and Helen left early, but if Xia De needed them, the sisters could appear by his side at any time.

Lunch was held in advance, and then Duo Luo Xi used the power of the Chosen One to assist Sylvia in opening a teleportation gate to the snow mountain tower across half an Old Continent, allowing the group to arrive at the tower directly.

There was no one at home, so Little Mia was also brought along. However, because of the danger of today's action, Xia De let the girls take care of this cat in the tower. Although Xia De would likely not use it, the 【Night Watchman】 was inserted into the scabbard 【Blunt Blade】 and held in Xia De's hand.

As for the magic sword sealed by the priest and the doctor together, it was also brought along. The method he thought of to completely contain the 【Sword Heir Nest】 must use this sword.

However, because weapons are useless against that demon, Emilia didn't bring the 【Flute of Time】, but Xia De knew that she had packed her crown and other important items in her crossbody bag. Grandma Qisha naturally knew about Emilia's adventure this time, so she prepared many useful things for her.

Without staying long in the tower on the snow mountain, Xia De and Emilia went to Victoria Street and met Miss Reinhardt's party who were ready to set off in the town at 11:40 noon.

They were also fully armed, and items such as relics, magic potions, and alchemy props were checked three times before they were relieved.

"Let Miss Larsen use this. This was given to me by the elders yesterday. I think there's no need to keep it."

Before setting off, he handed the snake slough to the white-haired girl, who, after obtaining her teacher's permission, smeared blood on it—

【Name: Stella Larsen】

【Level: Ringed Shushi (Sixth Ring) / Witch Apprentice】

【Luck: --】

【Story Role: Important Supporting Character】

【Personal Story Main Line: With injuries and illness, you embarked on a journey to a remote sea island with your teacher in an unremarkable winter. You have never set foot here, nor have you known what secrets are here. The wind and snow are calling for your arrival, and the eternal ice that does not melt reflects your figure.

Now that the evil thing has been punished, the magic sword has appeared, the demon has shown its trace, the holy beast has cried for the first time, and the calamity has descended, are you, who are stepping onto the stage by lifting your skirt at this moment, just wanting to dance for others as a supporting character?】

Luck "--" means unremarkable, neither good nor bad. This kind of luck is considered normal. Extreme good luck and bad luck are things that need to be guarded against. As for the identity of "Important Supporting Character" like Emilia, it is still one level higher than the witch who is a "Minor Supporting Character."

So the expression of the most gifted girl born at the foot of the snow mountain immediately became bad. However, she didn't get angry at anyone, but wondered what she had done or hadn't done that caused her "position" to be so marginal:

"It doesn't make sense. I'm a local, and I know more about this island than they do. Could it be... I'm the kind of character in the story who is clearly mysterious and powerful, but can only act as a background board or a guide?"
