Chapter 3689: The Commission Not Yet Failed

The three people by the fire more or less understood the knowledge of souls, so they knew how much determination Valentin Halonin had to have to carry out the self-destruction of the soul. This fate had already merged with her. She was unwilling to do this, and Xia De would never be able to get this fate.

"Give this to you."

The weak and transparent soul trembled and threw that ring with cracks to Xia De:

"This is not a thank you or an apology. I use this to exchange for this rose. Fool... Yes, it is really appropriate, Fool."

Thus, at this moment, Xia De simultaneously possessed the fate rings of 【Death】, 【Rebirth】, and 【Fool】. The harvest of this night was enough just with these.

The weak soul could no longer speak easily. The pale soul color seemed to dissipate if blown by the wind. The Baron in the wheelchair looked toward her, but she just looked at the ice-colored rose in her hand.

The Baron said to Xia De:

"I have nothing I can give you. I don't know much about Mr. Snake and his secrets. However, I know how much trouble I have brought to you. Now that death has arrived, saying those things has no meaning anymore.

I can only give my apology. I don't regret the life choices I made, but I am very sorry for using you."

The Baron actually didn't do too many wrong things. Although he also traded with Mr. Snake, he didn't hurt anyone. So although Xia De didn't quite agree with his view on love, his attitude toward him was slightly friendlier:

"After you die, I will tell the church your story, and the church will handle your inheritance. Do you have a will left or any arrangements for your funeral? For the sake of this 【Fool】 ring, I can help you convey it."

The soul in the wheelchair shook his head:

"I prepared my will many years ago. It is in the drawer of the study in the old house. I thought about leaving the family property to the nephew of a distant relative after I died. The Samir family really declined... I bought a house in the city of Willendale many years ago. That was on the eve of the Willendale housing price surge. I bought it with the only assets left in the family.

I originally planned to move there to live with her after finding her, so no one knows about that house. The signatures on the land deed and the house deed came from a fake identity. These two contracts were placed by me in the vault of the Central Bank of Karsinrik in Willendale. Opening the vault only needs a key. The key is behind the picture frame in the study of the old house.

Mr. Watson, I know you probably won't care about such wealth, but please accept it. This is the only way I can express my apology."

This time Xia De did not refuse. When spring comes, go to Willendale to find Margaret. It is also good to have a place to stay locally. Since others took the initiative to give him a house, he accepted it.

Seeing Xia De nod, Baron Samir felt much more at ease. And seeing Xia De finish talking with the two, the priest said:

"Send them away. Dawn is coming soon. Let them leave before dawn arrives."

Xia De then stood up. Ms. Halonin and Baron Samir looked at each other in silence.

Xia De believed that they thought of many things in this second of looking at each other, but the two still did not speak to each other. Xia De picked up the sword he had put down just now, slashed forward, and a black crack appeared in the space:

"No matter what kind of things you did before you died, all souls have the qualification to walk toward the end. The things of the living have nothing to do with you anymore. Go, walk through the last journey together. Your story began in an orphanage in the spring many years ago, and your story ends in this snowy winter.

When you travel far under the underworld moon, you don't need to look back anymore. The story of Fatumunster Island will end in my hands. Mr. Snake is destined to perish."

The snowflakes passed through the two spirit bodies and fell on the ground. The weak Valentin Halonin came to the back of the wheelchair, inserted the ice rose into her waist, and then pushed the wheelchair toward the crack. Before leaving this world, she looked back at Xia De for the last time, nodded slightly, and then truly stepped into death together with the Baron.

Above his head was the vast starry sea. By the fire at the top of the snowy mountain, the old man, the middle-aged man, and the young man sat on the soft cushion, sat on the stone, and stood respectively, but all three were looking at the flames in the campsite. The shadows of the three fell on the snow surface in their respective different forms, and outside the snow surface, the towering Fatumunster snowy mountain remained silent before the end of the long night.

After the crack closed, Doctor Schneider sighed for a long time:

"The truth of love is indeed mutual torture."

The priest corrected from the side:

"Judging from my many years of work experience, the truth of marriage is mutual torture, love will be slightly sweeter."

The doctor didn't know what he thought of and laughed:

"Yes, this sentence is really incisive. I want to write this sentence down, maybe I will have a chance to say it to my patients in the future."

Xia De stood there with his hands in his pockets:

"Doctor, Priest, do you think they are still in love after the love curse is lifted?"

"There has never been love that remains unchanged for a long time. The result of long-term love is family affection. As for the two of them... who knows?"

The old priest's tone was very relaxed:

"Don't think too much about this kind of troublesome story. After reading the story, just get some lessons yourself. However, saying 'fate is impermanent' is not wrong. They clearly loved each other, but finally walked to such an ending. Although many people say they don't believe in fate, whether the feelings between people can last long sometimes really depends on whether fate favors them."

Xia De sighed:

"The sword of slaughter is snapped by itself, the end of seeking secret treasures is voluntarily abandoning one's own treasures, the obsession of seeking resurrection can only welcome fakes, the result of fate beginning to flow is the arrival of war, and the truth of love is mutual torture.

These are the first five acts of the fate story. What exactly does that ancient God of Fate want to tell mortals through these stories?"

The doctor laughed:

"Perhaps that god just likes to watch this kind of drama with brilliant stories."

Xia De then adjusted his mood. No matter what, the fifth act was officially over:

"Let's not talk about this for now. Priest, rest well after you go back. I will find you again when I have time in the next few days.

Doctor, although the Black Hand-Tifron was successfully solved by you, the broken sword transformed from its partial essence is still in Mr. Snake's hand. That snake is afraid it will forge the sword again. Next, I still have to ask you to find a way to provide means to confront that sword. Also, the demon's memory also needs you to handle."

The priest and the doctor both nodded. The old priest also advised:

"Don't have so much pressure. When the story of this island ends, you can still ask us for help like before. The scenery here is so good, relax your mood a little before the decisive battle begins, don't crush yourself."

It seemed that everyone could see that Xia De was under great pressure. The doctor originally also wanted to advise Xia De, but since the priest had already spoken, he said:

"Tomorrow is Friday, everyone rest for a while. You tell Louisa, if there is really an urgent matter that needs to be handled, you can go to the clinic to find me. Detective, everyone has their own secrets and responsibilities. When the pressure is high, find someone to talk to. Didn't the priest and I come all the way with your help?"

Xia De showed a smile:

"That's right, but at least I can't rest this Friday. The great war is over, but many things still need me to handle... Grace, Helen, help me open the portal."

With a "crack," the space shattered. The red butterflies, which had already arrived here but had not shown themselves, constructed a rotating red vortex beside the campsite. The doctor and the priest stood up, returned the curved arc Xia De borrowed before the great war began to Xia De, and then returned to Tobesk together through the portal first.

The portal closed. Until this moment, Grace and Helen appeared beside Xia De. They each held one of Xia De's hands, and looked at the snowy mountain with the rising sun together with Xia De.

Twenty minutes later, the western sea area of Fatumunster Island.

Xia De, rowing a small boat alone, stopped the boat on the sea surface. After dawn arrived, the fighting on the island gradually subsided completely, but the island and the surrounding sea area were filled with inexplicable thick fog, which was not common in the season at the end of winter.

The thick fog on the sea surface made Xia De unable to see the shore of the island. Rowing the boat here alone, he even had the illusion that he was left alone in the world. He did not get off the boat. After stopping the boat, he sat on the edge of the boat, and then shouted toward the foggy sea surface:

"Come out, I know you are here."

A "splash" sound came from under the boat, as if some huge marine creature was swimming under the boat. The thick fog made the environment around the boat look blurry. A moment later, a wet, beautiful woman's head emerged from under the sea surface at a distance of ten meters from the small wooden boat.

Black hair was scattered on the water surface, and there was a reproachful expression on the beautiful face. Because of the obstruction of the thick fog, her face also looked somewhat blurry, which made that unique beauty carry some mystery:

"Clearly I gave you a commission, but you still sent that woman toward the end. Even so, you still want to come to see me? Could it be... that you came specifically to apologize?"

This time Xia De was not wearing the witch's ring on his hand, but he found that he had a very high resistance to the "mermaid's" power at this moment. He was somewhat exhausted, and his heart was also concerned about the situation of the girls who participated in the battle. In this situation, it was difficult for him to give birth to other thoughts.

The thin fog drifted slowly on the sea surface. Xia De shook his head:

"Why should I apologize? I originally also thought this commission failed, but after sending those two souls away just now, I suddenly had an idea—that woman named Valentin Halonin, is she really your target?" ===== CHAPTER 3690 =====
