Chapter 3555: Ajelina's Talent
Since Ajelina also had a snake skin, Xia De didn't forget to let her check if she had a "Destiny Dice."
But the little princess who lived in the Yodel Palace for a long time had neither encountered an infinite snake, nor met a god, nor participated in the events on the island, so she naturally didn't have a single die, which was very consistent with the character setting of a "background character."
Then everyone gave Ajelina gifts. Not only Xia De and Emilia, but even Claire prepared a ruby for Ajelina that could release "Solar Ray" after activation as a gift.
And Xia De's gift was of course the "heaviest"—whether from the heart or from its own weight. After explaining the origin of 【King of Promise】 and the power of the gold and silver dual-colored gemstone on the staff head, Xia De handed the staff to Ajelina, and Claire suggested:
"Try using it to cast spells now. If there is anything unsuitable, I can adjust the gemstone again."
Ajelina then guided her own spirit into the staff to familiarize herself with its power attributes. This was her first time using a spell-casting catalyst, so the enthusiastic sharp-eared elf gave a lot of useful suggestions on the side.
With Xia De and Claire there, there was no need to worry about a low-ring Ringed Shushi like Ajelina causing trouble, so she started her first attempt directly in the Snow Mountain Hall.
The gold and silver dual-colored gemstone glowed slightly because of the injection of her spirit. Although the powers of the sun and the moon were activated at the same time, there was no conflict of power as expected. Ajelina reconciled the two opposite powers very well.
But lighting up the staff was only the first step. When she tried to continue casting spells, nothing happened.
Ajelina tried again embarrassedly, but her spellcasting still failed:
"Casting spells with empty hands, I can sense different properties of power very well and let them blend together to form the 'chaotic state' mentioned by Auntie. But when using a staff, my control over power is like touching Braille while wearing gloves."
Claire then suggested:
"Then don't activate the staff by injecting spirit. You must firmly believe that the staff in your hand is a part of you, give yourself a hint that the staff doesn't need to be adapted and can be used directly. Judging from the performance just now, your skills and talent are enough, you just lack confidence."
Ajelina thought for a while, stared at the gemstone in front of her for a while, and then brought her mouth close to the gemstone and blew gently—
The bright crimson and holy silver were still a bit dazzling even in the daytime when the weather was good. Ajelina then closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she had already slightly raised the 【King of Promise】, which was not light in weight:
"Miracle - Mixed Flame."
"Mixed Flame" is an advanced miracle derived from the basic spell "Ignite." Its effect is to mix other properties of energy into the flame. It is a change in the energy property direction produced by "Ignite," not a change in the flame form direction.
And the "Mixed Flame" that Ajelina learned was different from others. She mixed two different properties of energy at the same time, which made the same miracle more powerful in her hands.
This time her spellcasting was successful. Above the gold and silver gemstone, a fireball larger than a washbasin, with a color like a spilled palette, appeared out of thin air and then smashed towards the ground in front.
Xia De reached out forward immediately and caught the fireball directly. With a press of both hands inward, the already unstable fireball exploded with a bang~, but under his fire resistance and control over fire, except for breaking his coat, it didn't cause any other consequences.
As for the broken coat, it was also repaired by time reversal later.
"The effect is very good. This kind of attack has already exceeded the low ring."
Xia De praised, and Ajelina laughed very happily. Although the staff was a bit heavy, she liked it sincerely, so she secretly decided to exercise her arm strength and endurance in the future to prevent herself from being unable to run fast while holding it.
It's just that in this way, every time Ajelina uses this staff, she has to blow a breath at the head of the staff, which is a bit like igniting a fire. But compared to the amplification brought by the staff, this is really a small matter, and when she gets used to this spell-casting catalyst, she probably won't need to do this.
"Claire, do you think it is necessary for Ajelina to learn some close combat techniques using an iron rod?"
When Ajelina and Emilia were flying towards the snow mountain riding little unicorns, Xia De asked the witch on the side with a smile. Claire thought it was completely unnecessary:
"Since she has excellent Ringed Shushi talent, don't be distracted to learn those extra skills. When she also becomes a high ring, and can easily smash a house with one stick, any skill will seem useless."
She looked at the backs of the girls going away:
"But is the bloodline of the Cavendish family so good? Miss Jia Lin Na, Princess Lei Qianya, and now another Ajelina with chaotic talent. Even the traditional Ringed Shushi families like the Aurora family don't have such exaggerated bloodline performance, right?"
Actually, the Cavendish family also had the twin princes who were candidates for time, but they voluntarily gave up their qualifications, so Xia De would not let the young them get involved with the Whispering Poem.
"Adele of the past said that even when I appeared in the doomsday era, the twin princes were still guarding the throne for Ajelina at the highest point of the Yodel Palace..."
Young girls can play and enjoy life at will, but Xia De still has many things to deal with.
The information about the "Starfall Beast" obtained by Luvia's divination was shared by him with Claire and the elders, but he only told the witches about the news of the "Ring." This kind of thing is indeed not suitable for too many people to know.
"There is indeed a cave in the north of the island that goes directly into the ground, but where it leads, no one has ever explored. That cave is dangerous, and it was sealed by us in the early years to prevent reckless people from breaking in and taking risks. So, does it lead directly to the starfall place under the ocean?"
When Xia De talked about the road to the "Starfall Beast" nest, Elder Harald almost immediately understood where the entrance Xia De mentioned was.
Claire also had her own ideas:
"The other party possesses the power of stars, destiny, and gravity. I think it's better to wait until Vanessa comes before we take action. She can help us deal with the changes in gravity, and the power of the stars is under the jurisdiction of the moon, which you should also be able to deal with very well. With the two of you, that thing is not a particularly tricky enemy."
As for the consequences of the "destiny of war" circulating again locally, Xia De also told the elders. Claire saw this very thoroughly:
"If left alone, even without war, there will be other big troubles."
But the great elders had their own concerns, but if the chosen one ritual is to continue, killing the "Starfall Beast" and shattering or using the "Ring of War" is a necessary step.
Moreover, if it really drags on, with the arrival of the war across the continent, whether the "Starfall Beast" under the ocean will become stronger because of this is something no one can say clearly.
The weather on the island today is very good, and the sunny appearance does have a feeling that winter is coming to an end.
The ritual prepared by the great elders for Stella still needs a lot of materials, so Xia De accepted the task and used the remaining time in the morning to go to the mountains to pick herbs with Matilda, who is now very good at finding paths in the snow mountain.
Speaking of which, Bella will also arrive at Fatumunster Island this week, and Matilda's time will not be so free by then. When flying to the snow mountain with the blonde maid, Xia De also asked her how she felt during this time.
And the loyal maid said that she was very worried that she was not by her master's side, and whether it would make the countess feel inconvenient in everything. After saying this, she kissed Xia De in the air, which of course was also answering Xia De's question.
The process of picking herbs was considered smooth. After returning to the town at 11:10, Xia De hurried to take Ajelina back to Tobesk, and returned with her again at one o'clock in the afternoon. And at this time, the Shining Messenger had already prepared crab dishes for her.
In the afternoon, the little princess and the elf girl ran to the north of the island with the unicorns to play. They planned to come back at three o'clock and use the remaining hour to try the feeling of sea fishing. Today is a holiday for them. The girls are at the age of being playful, and it is not bad to have a vacation like this occasionally.
As for Xia De, the Diviner Association sent some materials of the "Great Movement of Destiny" from the city to the town, allowing the Fatum priests and Stella to make preliminary preparations for the ritual.
The huge map was spread out on the long table in the Snow Mountain Hall. This super-large ritual with the entire island as the ritual base had many requirements. Although it was not necessary to change the terrain of the island on a large scale, it required building small altars in advance at several key nodes, or treating the land to make it have certain specific properties.
Although the current ritual materials were only preliminary preparations, they also filled a full handbag. Xia De was actually not very good at interpreting this complex ritual, so he ran to the ship and called Audrey. Miss Edwards flipped through the materials quickly while the elders were discussing with each other, and nodded constantly:
"As expected of the Diviner Association, such a ritual can actually be brought out. I think the association didn't give us all the materials at once, besides worrying about leaks, it's also because their modifications to the ritual haven't been completely finished yet.
This kind of super-large ritual needs to be specially prepared according to the time and place of the ritual. The diviners obviously didn't just think of using this ritual recently, and they did a lot of preliminary preparation work."
The things she understood were obviously more than everyone added together.
So Claire asked:
"Then skip the theoretical analysis, skip your sighs, and skip those unimportant details, what is the conclusion?" ===== CHAPTER 3556 =====
