Chapter 3612: War and King — Angelina

~11 min read 2,036 words

The one speaking was Princess Lei Qianya's personal maid, whom Xia De was very familiar with. Thus, Xia De, finally having found something to do, nodded slightly. After the maid left, he stood there for another five minutes before casually placing his wine glass on the windowsill and walking away quickly.

Princess Lei Qianya had already been waiting for Xia De in the lounge outside the banquet hall. After Xia De entered, she hugged him directly, taking a deep breath to soothe her excitement:

"Do you know? You have become the focus of this banquet. I heard those noble ladies from abroad saying that a handsome young man with a melancholy expression was standing by the window at today's banquet, and I knew it must be you at that moment."

"I thought everyone at this banquet was focused on politics."

Xia De hugged his beloved Princess.

"Don't be silly, Xia De. There are plenty of people here looking for fun; you just haven't been paying attention to them."

As she spoke, she reached out to undo the buttons of Xia De's coat. After being stopped by Xia De's hand, she gave him an ambiguous, sidelong glance before crouching down.

Xia De hurriedly pulled her up:

"No, no, that's not what I meant. I mean I want to see Angelina. I didn't see her here; is she at the Yodel Palace right now?"

Princess Lei Qianya then asked:

"What, is just me not enough? But time is limited, and it's not convenient with too many people... How about I go find Miss Difa?"

This was, of course, teasing; she knew Xia De had serious business to attend to.

Angelina was not a princess involved in political affairs, so she stayed at the Yodel Palace tonight to do her own things. When Princess Lei Qianya took Xia De's hand and appeared directly in her study, it truly gave Angelina a fright:

"Sister, Xia De, why are you here?"

She quickly shoved what she was writing under the desk. Xia De had originally thought she was writing a diary or homework for the Zhalas Academy of Literature, but it didn't look like that.

Princess Lei Qianya glared at her sister, then said to Xia De:

"Hurry up."

"Alright, Angelina, try to grasp this."

Xia De took out the star-blue ring from the empty snake skin. The eighteen-year-old Princess's first feeling was that this thing was incredibly beautiful, followed by a strange attraction from the ring, as if it were something that belonged to her by nature.

Of course, this feeling was not particularly strong because, at this moment, she was more guilty about what she had just been writing. Thus, the eighteen-year-old Princess walked around the desk toward Xia De. After grasping the ring with both hands, her Fate Ring actually manifested directly behind her.

Princess Lei Qianya immediately cast a spell to block the fluctuation of elements from spreading outward, while Xia De saw the light on the "Ring of War" fly toward Angelina's back, until it carved the Miracle - War onto her Fate Ring. This scene was very similar to what happened when Stella grasped that ice-blue ring in the afternoon. Even though fate had been twisted so much by Xia De, Angelina still had an extraordinary affinity with the "Fate of War."

"The upper limit of Spirit, mental power, vitality, and the strength of Miracles and spells have all increased."

Angelina gave a similar description to Stella's, and since her level was lower than Stella's, who was preparing to advance to the Seventh Ring, the enhancement she could feel was even more obvious.

"So it is."

After verifying his conjecture, the Outlander worried in his heart that Angelina still had the fate of war, but then felt there was no need to worry so much:

"She is just suited for the fate of war, not necessarily destined to walk toward such a fate."

But in this way, the "Ring of War" would not be shattered by him for the time being, but this thing could not remain in Angelina's hands now. In order to completely end the fourth act, Xia De planned to forge this ring into a weapon so that it would no longer be a pure aggregate of fate.

"Is the King of Covenant here?"

Xia De asked again. Angelina nodded immediately, opened the secret compartment behind the bookshelf in her study, and took out the scepter she particularly liked.

Xia De had originally thought of using this scepter as a carrier for fate, but he did not expect that after this scepter appeared before his eyes again, he unexpectedly saw floating dots of light within it:

"There weren't these lights before... Traces of fate? Is this scepter itself a weapon endowed with fate?"

After knowing the existence of the Arc of Fate and the Ring of Fate, Xia De had checked the relics and ancient alchemical items commonly used by the young ladies around him, but apart from 【Night Watcher】 and 【Seal of Demon Hunting】, he had not found a third item endowed with fate.

And at this moment, the appearance of the third one was so unexpected. Xia De, greatly surprised, recalled carefully, and then remembered Mr. Edmund, who sold him this scepter, saying when introducing the story of this scepter—

"The Nameless Prophet forged this staff and claimed that he used fragments of stars to endow it with fate. It will become the scepter of the first and last founder of the human unified empire. (Chapter 3574)"

"Star fragments endowed it with fate. So, could there really be... inside this staff?"

【Yes, the fate destined to become King.】

"She" smiled gently. Xia De looked at the 【King of Covenant】 and then at Angelina, who was still holding the "Ring of War." In a trance, he felt that he also saw the trajectory of fate at this moment.

"Xia De, is it done yet? How much longer do we have to stay here?"

"So it's not looking for that woman... But Xia De has been on this island for so long, and the only ring obtained locally is also deep in the seabed. Is there really solidified fate on this island?"

Flora was very skeptical about this, and Xia De put forward another possibility:

"There wasn't before, but there might be now. The chaos of elements has caused many strange things to appear on the island. Maybe some relics or more weird existences really have solidified fate. Since the wolf pack carrying bad luck has appeared, I am afraid there will be more terrible things encountering us one after another.

Flora, you must be careful when using those spiritual dusts to summon the wolf pack. Even if you find clues, you must go to investigate with others. Absolutely do not act alone."

"Xia De, the one who acts alone most often seems to be you, right?"

They didn't stay in the snowy night, and after reporting safety to the village chief and priest in the village, they returned to the ship. The information heard during this outing was vague, but at least the identity of the candidate for the Bad Luck Cult was confirmed.

It is indeed very troublesome for the other party not to appear in the body, but attacking the body through incarnations or incarnations is not an uncommon means.

However, the night was already deep, and Xia De didn't discuss these things with the witches anymore. After saying goodbye to everyone, he returned home with some exhaustion by throwing the crystal shoes. The city in the night of Tobesk was still peaceful, filled with slowly flowing smog.

The warm home was lit with lights that made people feel at ease. Dorothy was waiting for Xia De to return at home. When he came to the second floor through the stairs, the blonde and blue-eyed girl stood by the fireplace and smiled at him:

"Welcome home, Xia De, you worked hard today."

The comfort of the young ladies could always make Xia De fade away all his fatigue. This point was particularly obvious in Dorothy.

So when he woke up on Wednesday morning, the Outlander was full of energy again, ready to welcome a brand new day. He praised Dorothy's craftsmanship at the breakfast table, thinking about the past and the future, and was really looking forward to the day when he could rest completely after all things ended.

And the information brought by Luweiya yesterday was indeed accurate. Early this morning, the Church sent people through the snow to Kyle-Todd Town, inviting the "God-Caller" to the city to discuss some things:

"It's not that we don't respect the God-Caller, but we have obtained some key information. For the sake of information security, please ask the God-Caller to go to the city in person."

This was also expected. Therefore, this time Claire and Vanessa followed Xia De, and the three of them left the town with the team that invited Xia De.

Xi Wei on the pier looked at their departing backs, standing on the deck of the big ship, feeling very uncomfortable in her heart.

Although it was still snowing today, the snow was much smaller, and it seemed that the bad weather was finally about to end temporarily. At this time, footsteps sounded, and Miss Yi Le Se came to the side of the Great Witch of Light:

"A bit unwilling, right?"

The ship girl had been with Xi Wei for a long time, so Xi Wei didn't mind revealing her thoughts to this good friend:

"Of course unwilling. Except for Miss Jia Lin Na, I clearly came the earliest... If I could be strong enough, the one going out with him now would be me."

The girl with black hair and blue eyes asked curiously:

"Not strong enough? Xi Wei, so what is your goal?"

Such a straightforward question, even the Great Witch who had had many relatively intimate contacts with Xia De was a bit embarrassed:

"Need you ask? Of course... to be more intimate with Xia De." ===== CHAPTER 3622 =====

Princess Lei Qianya was not in a state to talk much at this time, so she beckoned to Angelina, preparing to start her teaching. She hoped not to delay for too long.

And Angelina tried hard to control herself not to appear so active. She looked at Xia De with a blushing face, pinched her skirt, and bowed to him very ladylike before walking over, while at the same time starting to doubt whether her choice of lipstick just now was correct.

She really hoped that this was not the craziest thing to happen in her bedroom.

At 9:30 in the evening, Xia De, having changed into a new set of clothes, reappeared in the banquet hall of St. James's Palace.

Princess Lei Qianya had already gone to do her own things. He had originally thought he could see Miss Jia Lin Na again before the banquet ended, but when he found Miss Difa, the maid said very apologetically:

"The Lady and His Majesty the King are discussing the conscription topic for the New Continent settlement with a secretly visiting envoy."

So Xia De would likely not see her before the end of the banquet, but since he was already back, Xia De did not leave immediately. Seeing that there was nothing for him to do here, and not wanting to stay in the banquet hall, he paced to the garden behind St. James's Palace.

This garden had a small door directly connected to the garden of the Yodel Palace, but that door was generally not opened. If it were an ordinary banquet, there might be other people in the garden, but on such a high-level diplomatic occasion, no one would come here except Xia De.

The snowfall from the previous days made the whole garden silvery white. No lights were lit on the small paths in the garden at night, but there was still a faint light in the greenhouse.

The gardener in charge of guarding the garden didn't know if he noticed Xia De, but even if he did, the gardener shouldn't stop him from strolling here. ===== CHAPTER 3613 =====
