Seeing Miss Jia Lin Na, Sylvia asked that familiar question:

"Miss Jia Lin Na, why are you always here?"

The maids had already prepared dinner and were waiting for the masters to start the meal. The Duchess shook her head gently:

"You are wrong today. Later, Princess Lei Qianya and I have to return to Yodel Palace. Several distant relatives of the Cavendish family came today, and we cannot stay here overnight. I originally thought about letting Duoluoqian come here to accompany Xia De. Since you are here, there is no need for Duoluoqian to come over specially."

"Xia De~"

The Princess walked over and hugged Xia De gently. It could be seen that she was very worried about Xia De's situation.

Emilia was not in a hurry to go back, so she had dinner with everyone at home. After dinner, Xia De still sent the elf girl back to the academy library. When the two were alone, she took Xia De's hand and followed him while shaking it gently, obviously in a good mood.

Dannister was waiting in the library for Xia De to send Emilia back. After Emilia kissed Xia De on the side of the face sweetly and ran away, she signaled Xia De to sit down and talk:

"I asked the professors of the Mechanical Academy to help look at the knowledge of the 'Gormora Alchemical Rune Array' you gave. They said that theoretically, it is indeed possible to use the metal made in this way to strengthen another weapon of the same type. You can try to strengthen your 【Night Watcher】."

In addition, I asked someone to write the alchemical knowledge you gave into a paper and publish it, and the first author is still you. The academy requires high-ring students to publish at least one paper every year, whether they are correspondence or on-campus students. Although you claim to be only mid-ring now, you will definitely reach high-ring within this year, so it's right to prepare first."

She turned into the appearance of an eighteen-year-old girl and held Xia De's hand:

"I won't go to the island for the time being, so I can only let Emilia help you. In a few days, I will find a way to let the unicorn Liana follow Emilia to the island. That little unicorn is very spiritual."

She looked at Xia De's face:

"You seem a little tired."

Xia De was very curious about how she saw it:

"Something happened when I used the time key in the morning, but it was just a small matter, it doesn't matter."

As he spoke, he took the initiative to hug Dannister, and the red-haired girl also leaned into his arms:

"If you need me to help, remember to come to me in time... You can also come to me when you are lonely."

She even blushed when she said this, but Xia De really had something to ask her now:

"I have some questions I want to ask you."

He let go of Dannister and sat up straight:

"Dannister, I know that from ancient times to the present, there have never been few moon-worshipping groups and individuals. Some of them are even just attracted by the moon and don't actually use the power of the moon. I have been in contact with the 【Missing Moon Secret Cult】 and discussed this topic with them. So do you know any stories like 'Werewolf Chasing the Moon' in ancient legends?"

In today's dream, the werewolf girl's implication seemed to be hinting that she had become an existence that transcended time and space. When he was at the "Strange Tree Academy" in the Ash River Valley, although Xia De knew she was quite talented and pure, he still didn't know how she did it.

Even if the bark of the World Tree and the glasses of that god were left to her, just relying on these to transcend time and space... Megan and Audrey's ancestor, Laplace Howard, who was also very talented, probably couldn't do it.

Dannister thought for a while, and then shook her head:

"I need to check some information before I can answer you. Werewolves and vampires are always associated with the moon. There are actually many stories about werewolves chasing the moon. What exactly do you want to know?"

"Something about a friend in the Fifth Era, but it doesn't matter if you can't find it."

Xia De looked at her face:

"This Saturday night, we can use the ritual for the second time to push open the Silver Moon Gate. At that time, we need to find the location of the tree that Miss Helena Carter turned into. This is the most important thing recently."

Entering that sage's library in different ways will have different permissions, and entering through rituals not only has a once-a-year limit, but also only has the lowest level of permission - limited to once, query the history and stories recorded here from the library / limited to once, query the things that will happen in the near future from the starry sky / limited to once, seek blessings from the moon (choose one of three).

Although the information that can be obtained is limited, it is actually enough if it is just to find the location of the "corpse."

The red moon is provided by Dannister, the silver moon is provided by Xia De, and the yellow moon is provided by the 【Source of Chaos】, so although only the two of them can enter the library, they actually only need one query opportunity.

Xia De can even try to ask questions about "remains of the primordial moon", "how to see the Silver Moon Sage", "how to touch the ancient god of the moon", etc.

"I always feel that you are thinking about very blasphemous things."

The eighteen-year-old female sorcerer said in a low voice, and then this time she hugged Xia De's neck:

"I know Saturday night is your time with other girls, but the ritual can only be held at night, and I don't want to wait another day. So, can you tell Princess Lei Qianya Cavendish and Duoluoqian Luoyisha? Leave this Saturday to me."

"No problem."

Xia De kissed her forehead:

"You prepare the ritual materials, this Saturday, I will push open the Silver Moon Gate with you again."

They looked at themselves in each other's eyes and said together—

"May the original silver moon protect me under the starry sky of the long night."

Afterwards, Xia De didn't rush home, but borrowed the way to Mid-Hill Fort as agreed, and then arrived at the sacrificial ground on the top of the mountain. Looking at the moon in the sky here, the moons looked exceptionally large.

So Xia De reached out his hand to the night sky at the entrance of the sacrificial ground. The water of moon brilliance was first molded into the style of a bracelet, and then frozen by the chill. When Xia De held the bracelet high, the moon in the galaxy gathered all its light, concentrated it in the water of moon brilliance, and finally turned into a genuine "moonlight bracelet."

This was the third time Xia De had made such a gift, besides Vanessa's ring and Iluna's dagger (year-end festival gift).

The bracelet was handed directly to Sister Daifulin by Xia De. The sister would choose a suitable day to put it back into the box and bury it under the tombstone. And Xia De didn't rush to leave, with a little melancholy, watching the moon on the top of the mountain with Sister Daifulin who was holding the bracelet in her hand.

"I want to touch it."

Xia De said suddenly, and the sister who lowered her head slightly asked:

"And then?"

"What?"

"Wanting to touch the moon, is it the result or the process? If it is the process, what purpose do you want to achieve afterwards?"

Xia De continued to look at the huge moon disk with determination, but didn't say his true thoughts.

Xia De felt that he was really not in a state today, so when he said goodbye to Sister Daifulin and went home, he thought that although it was still early, he wouldn't read books today.

Miss Jia Lin Na, Princess Lei Qianya, and the maid ladies had already left, so when Xia De went back, there were only the cat and Sylvia at home.

When he walked out of the basement and climbed the stairs, he was still thinking about what Sylvia would do at home. Then, after walking into Room 1 on the second floor, he saw Sylvia standing in front of the fireplace with a smile at a glance.

She stood with her back to the fire in the fireplace, with her right hand on her waist. Because she was too close to the fireplace, there was a thin layer of sweat on her body. As for why Xia De knew, of course, it was because the total area of the fabric of the clothes Sylvia was wearing now was consistent with the total area of the clothes on Little Mia.

The curtains in the room were all tightly closed, and even the gas lamp was not turned on, so the crimson flame of the fireplace perfectly presented the color and beauty of Sylvia's skin. Of course, her black hair, which was draped, also became more charming under the firelight.

Xia De, who was stunned, stood at the door and didn't react to where he should look for a while. So his eyes saw from the top to the bottom, and then from the bottom to the top, and the black-haired witch was naturally very satisfied with Xia De's performance at this moment. She showed it quite confidently, confirming again that she was still very charming:

"I have already washed up in advance, but if you dislike that I am sweating again now, I can wash it again."

"No, no, no need."

Xia De said, throwing his coat on the back of the sofa, and then walked towards the girl who was showing her perfect figure in front of the fireplace:

"This time I finally have a chance to verify it."

"Verify what?"

"Is that fragrance your perfume 'Witch's Taste', or..."

The jumping flame in the fireplace projected the figures of the two hugging each other onto the wall. Sylvia said with a smile, "I'm ticklish," but didn't stop Xia De's next actions.

Xia De confirmed that Sylvia really had a so-called "body fragrance."

The "Mermaid Oil Painting" hanging on the wall looked at them quietly in the shaking light and shadow, and the cat lying on the back of the sofa closed its eyes and pretended to sleep. At one moment, when the "mermaid" in the oil painting seemed to turn its head because of the shaking light and shadow, the cat's amber eyes looked at the oil painting.

So the oil painting was still an oil painting, and the cat was still a cat. As for Xia De... After the event, Sylvia shared the experience of this night with Miss Jia Lin Na, Megan, and Vanessa, saying half-boastfully and half-fearfully:

"I thought Xia De was really going to eat me up. He was really... liking me, liking me very much."

Sylvia couldn't get up in time early Wednesday morning. When Xia De opened the window to let the wind and snow blow into the bedroom, she just complained softly that it was snowing again.

Xia De wouldn't leave Sylvia alone at home. After she woke up at eight o'clock, he had breakfast with her at home, and then the two went to the Witch's Tower together.
