Chapter 3546: Warm Voice
Galina and Luviya had long known Xia De's plan, so they didn't say anything about it.
Instead, Dorothy pursed her lips and said hesitantly:
"Maybe this miracle can be used for other things. Princess Lei Qianya and I are not completely unable to meet. We are already very satisfied with the current state."
She was not being polite to Xia De, or wanting to appear reserved in front of the other two people at the dinner table, but really thought so:
"We know what a precious opportunity this is, so instead of using it on us, it's better to use it on yourself. Even if you don't need this miracle in the final battle of the Fatumunster Island story, you can also use the miracle opportunity to exchange for knowing your lost past.
Or, getting a divine artifact is also good, such as the kind that permanently increases luck after wearing it. Isn't Luviya making ink? We can wait for this—this is the common idea of Princess Lei Qianya and me."
Galina was very pleased that her grandniece was occasionally sensible, and Luviya saw that Xia De still wanted to argue with Dorothy about this, so she said to him:
"Xia De, pass the salt shaker to me... But speaking of special ink, Xia De's words actually inspired me. The research on ink is close to stagnation. After getting the 【Fate Base】, I tried..."
She saw Xia De look at her and hurriedly changed her words:
"Not using that relic, just got inspiration from it. I added snake blood to the brand-new formula. Although it can leave traces on the snake shedding for a certain period of time, it is still not the effect I want.
Now it seems that maybe the snake blood I used is wrong. The snake blood that really needs to be added is the one worth 20 points. Although I don't know the specific effect, Xia De, next time you have a chance to contact the temple, get a copy of snake blood."
Compared to consuming all the points, the consumption of 20 points was very inconspicuous.
Xia De nodded. As for what he would finally use that miracle for, it was still up to him.
Now that clues for the remaining four scenes of the seven-scene story had appeared, and the four scenes were advancing together, it was possible that the story on the island could end next week—this was an optimistic estimate.
And the appearance of "Mr. Snake" not only made the church decide to officially dispatch a large force to the island, but the academy's research team was also invited to prepare to set off.
The news that the elves decided to hold the coronation of the Elf King on the snow mountain had spread throughout the material world, and many ancient races that had not appeared for many years would also gather on the island.
Even the 【Witch Council】, after receiving reports about "Mr. Snake" and the temple from the three great witches on the island, decided to officially launch an operation. When Galina came back from the meeting this evening, Xia De was still learning the silver flute under Dorothy's guidance. She told Xia De:
"The Speaker asked Vanessa, Bella, and Flora to arrive at Fatumunster Island next week. Cassandra and Sylvia will be a little later, but Sylvia can go to the island to help at any time, so it doesn't matter if she is later."
"Then what about you?"
Dorothy asked, and Galina shook her head regretfully:
"Sylvia being later is because the war is approaching. As Margaret's private tutor and private doctor, she still has such a big business in Willendale, and there are many things to deal with. It is said that the Karsenrik military has noticed the military use of her new products.
It's the same for me. As spring gets closer and closer, not to mention the residents on the border, even the people in Tobesk feel that restlessness. As a duchess, it is also difficult for me to leave Tobesk for a long time. The Speaker also understands me and said to let me handle the things in my hands before setting off."
Xia De remembered talking to his neighbor, old Mr. Smith, about gas bills a few days ago:
"It doesn't matter, you handle government affairs in Tobesk. If you need me, I will call you again."
Galina nodded gently and hugged Xia De:
"I definitely have to find time. The Speaker said that if it is really necessary, she can also go to help."
"This..."
Luviya, who already knew the truth about "Miss Sabel," found it funny:
"If she wants to go, let her go. As the leader of the 【Witch Council】, she has indeed missed major events many times."
"But what if she sees Xia De?"
The purple-eyed diviner stretched out her right hand and clenched it fiercely in front of her:
"Of course, let Xia De grab her, and then try to see, since you are all reluctant to let go, then can she be an exception?"
The seven murals in the temple recorded by Xia De with the 【Moon Library】 were transferred to paper by Dorothy with "mental writing" this evening for Luviya to divine and study.
She would set off for Fatumunster Island on Monday, wanting to provide Xia De with some clues during the time left before leaving. After arriving on the island, although the association would not restrict the freedom of diviners, it was not very easy to run to find Xia De at will.
"【Fate Base】 will stay at home for the time being. If needed, I will send it from home to the ship."
Xia De said. Luviya, although reluctant to part with her newly acquired "treasure," could only agree.
And this evening, when the girls went to wash up, Xia De, who was waiting for them on the sofa, saw Tifa and asked her:
"Suppose, I mean suppose there is a maid who takes my hand and touches her face, what would this imply?"
The beautiful black-haired head maid frowned slightly, did not answer the question but asked:
"Who is so ignorant of the rules?"
"No, no, not the maid here in Tobesk."
She then asked:
"Then is it a girl under Matilda? I will talk to her next time."
Xia De shook his head again:
"Not the maid in Moon Bay either. It's... well, it's that Miss Winnie."
Tifa then understood, and the slight severity in her eyes faded:
"I see. Then, is the ice cold to the touch?"
"She asked that question too."
Dorothy was in the next room, Luviya went to the third floor, so Tifa glanced at the direction of the bathroom here, and then hugged Xia De. Then she pushed Xia De away slightly with force and also pulled up his hand, but the position was not the cheek but somewhere slightly lower.
The gentle touch was indeed very good. She lowered her voice and said:
"Can you feel the frequency of my heartbeat—look, her question and my question are probably the same meaning."
Xia De understood completely now, but he hesitated and said:
"Can't feel it, you know, it's too far away."
【Lie.】
Tifa smiled gently, and she was also very satisfied with this answer:
"I see..."
She reached out and untied the black silk ribbon-style bow at the neckline, and then unbuttoned a few buttons. After calculating the time, she pointed to the direction of the bedroom:
"Since you can't feel it, then go and listen carefully—can you listen to the frequency of my heart beating for you?"
The sound of that heart beating was really warm.
Of course, to prevent the smell of perfume from being smelled, Xia De broke into the bathroom before Galina walked out. The duchess complained to him, and then happily let him come underwater:
"Although I said I would be the first to come, you don't have to be so anxious... Is my charm that great?"
(Little Mia is running...)
Probably because she was in a good mood, after getting up early on Saturday morning, even though the breakfast prepared by the maids had been brought to the dining table, Galina insisted on frying an egg for Xia De.
"Do you want to change to a simpler meal? For example, help the cat heat some goat milk."
"Dorothy" asked with a smile. Speaking like that must be Princess Lei Qianya.
"Princess Lei Qianya, don't underestimate me."
The red-haired witch said and spread her arms to let the maid tie an apron for her, and then entered the kitchen under Tifa's slightly nervous follow-up. She said this when Xia De went to the third floor to check the operation of the "Moon Ash" ritual, so he didn't hear it. And when Xia De returned to the third floor, the fried egg was ready.
Galina didn't let Dorothy and Luviya tell Xia De about this, but directly put the egg on Xia De's plate, wanting to see what his reaction was.
Xia De didn't pay attention at first, but when he ate the egg, Galina looked over.
Xia De hesitated:
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, just remembered some things. It's okay, you just continue eating."
Xia De didn't care either and ate the egg. When the last bite disappeared, Galina asked again:
"How does it taste?"
Luviya and Dorothy were both holding back their laughter. Although Xia De didn't know the cause and effect, probably only little Mia at the table couldn't guess the truth.
He thought for a while:
"It tastes normal. Although it is a bit different from the craftsmanship of the maids, it reminds me of things before I knew you. At that time, I was still learning to cook myself. This taste gave me a nostalgic feeling about home."
Galina was very happy at first, especially when she heard "feeling of home," but she soon understood:
"Are you saying that the food I made is not as good as what Tifa and the others made?"
Princess Lei Qianya thought this question was quite boring. The maids were professionals, and there was no need to compare cooking skills with them at all.
Xia De pointed out:
"In terms of craftsmanship, it is indeed not as good, but isn't this egg also filled with, um, full of love, according to the cliché way of saying it?"
Luviya and Princess Lei Qianya really laughed this time, and Galina was also very satisfied. She didn't really care whether the food she made was better than what the maids made. As long as Xia De could feel her heart, that was enough.
Today is Saturday. Considering that there will be a meeting in the afternoon and there is nothing else on the island for the time being, Xia De plans to wait until evening to take a look at Kyle-Todd Town.
He originally planned to go to Luviya's apartment in the morning to help Luviya, who was about to go out, pack her luggage, but Luviya refused Xia De:
"It's a rare day off, you should just stay at home. Dorothy can help me. See you at the doctor's in the afternoon, Xia De." ===== CHAPTER 3547 =====
