Chapter 3857

Having not seen each other for a week, Xia De naturally performed well on this Saturday night. Dorothy even asked Lei Lei Qianya to help save the situation halfway, but in short, the girls were very satisfied:

"It seems Professor Daniste is not that great, otherwise you would definitely not be so... excited tonight."

As for the three things Xia De had to deal with, Xia De decided to visit Sister Sister Daifulin first.

So on the leisurely Sunday, after having breakfast with Dorothy, he set off alone.

Borrowing the way through Mid-Hill Castle City to the Peak of the Mountains, there was light snow drifting on the peak. However, today, Sister Sister Daifulin was rarely not in the underground sacrificial ground. Xia De followed the guidance of other nuns and walked down the steps, passed through the gate below, and saw the nun beside the tombstone on the edge of the circular square.

One side of the square was a cliff, and the other side was a bottomless abyss. The tombstones under the cliff belonged to the modern fire-holding nuns. Xia De had been brought here by Sister Sister Daifulin and knew that what was in front of her was the grave of the previous generation of nuns.

Xia De did not speak to disturb Sister Sister Daifulin. The nun bowed her head, not knowing whether she was mourning or thinking about other things.

After he stood beside Sister Sister Daifulin for a full twenty minutes, the nun said softly in the snow:

"Is there a result from the trip to the Moon Tower?"

Xia De then told the situation of the "Moon Egg" again, but Sister Sister Daifulin did not continue to ask, but after he finished speaking, she reached out her right hand and grabbed the dark golden scythe transformed by the life ring:

"The flame guides you and me to walk together, let's try the brand-new power of the thirteenth ring."

Since the nun issued an invitation, Xia De naturally would not refuse:

"Okay, but nun, you have to be merciful, I can't beat the thirteenth-ring you."

He said and also summoned his moonlight greatsword. Then the two came to the center of the square, bowed to each other according to the duel etiquette, and then the two figures wrapped in flames collided on the snowy mountain peak.

No one used their full strength. The clanging sound of weapons colliding was just death and moonlight, making contact one after another under the wrapping of flames.

【Is this considered flirting?】

"She" asked in the wind on the mountain peak, and Xia De thought it shouldn't be.

After fighting in the cemetery below the sacrificial ground, Xia De also basically understood the power of Sister Sister Daifulin, who had now entered the thirteenth ring. She completed the promotion from death, and now she can perfectly integrate the power of "First Flame" and "Death."

The black flames fused together truly possessed the ability to "burn everything." And as far as death itself is concerned, the nun can also be considered to have thoroughly understood the true meaning of death and ending as a living person.

"Predestined Death" was mastered by her as a divine art. So far, the chosen one of death has prepared to welcome the final preparation, but unfortunately, other chosen ones have not made such preparations.

And the return of the third-to-last flame also brought her new power. Because the first flame was constantly recovering the flame, and there was power enhancement from the alien fire and firewood provided by Xia De, the current intensity was far better than the intensity during the death story.

The use of basic flame sorcery had already become an instinct for Sister Sister Daifulin. And those powerful flame sorcery sorceries were just powers that the nun could learn at will.

Only the power based on "First Flame" is the special ability unique to the fire-holding nuns. And through that 【Death】 fate, the special ability the nun obtained this time was a black flame.

At the same time the flame appeared in her palm, Xia De's gaze felt the coldness within just by touching it. That was the "Fire of Death" symbolizing death, without temperature, and could destroy the soul.

"This black fire is the harvest when I was promoted to the thirteenth ring. It contains both the light of the original fire and the coldness of true death."

The nun said softly, and Xia De tried to touch the flame, but withdrew before his fingers were about to touch it:

"Forget it, I'm not a cat like Little Mia, so don't be too curious."

Sister Sister Daifulin had shared her harvest with Xia De many times in the past, but this "Fire of Death" could not be mastered by Xia De. This is the perfect combination of the power of the fire-holding nun and the power of the chosen one of death. No matter how talented Xia De is, he cannot master this power without an identity.

And Sister Sister Daifulin used this power during the Battle of Fate to continuously destroy the outer shell of that doomsday snake.

"It's really amazing that death and flames can coexist in this form."

Xia De was not disappointed, but praised it instead. The two were sitting in the center of the square where the nun's cemetery was located, and the Ash Greatsword was inserted between the two to form a campfire.

Snow was still falling, the nun shook her head gently, and then said again:

"Besides this fire of death and predestined death, I also obtained another kind of power in that death. I haven't mastered this power purely yet—I can summon the souls burned by flames in the form of ashes."

This also seems to belong to the category of "necromancy," but because of the participation of the first flame, the summoned souls have an ash shell.

"Then those firewood burned in the past, such as evil things, demons, etc., can you summon them now?"

Xia De asked, and the nun nodded:

"Yes, but I can only summon a part of them in the form of ashes, or use part of their power through my hands. The flame will choose the most suitable part and power, this is not purely summoning the dead."

Xia De nodded to show that he understood, and then learned that the souls burned by the nuns of the past could also be summoned, but this required Sister Sister Daifulin herself to explore the ashes left by the burned souls in the flames.

So Xia De began to imagine the scene when Sister Sister Daifulin fought later. Although the nun is not the first candidate because she is not the first candidate, and was shared part of the power of death by Iluna, she is not pure, but because of the flame she holds, her current power is actually not inferior to the pure chosen one of death "Person of Rebirth" Joey Barton who appeared in other possibilities.

"Fire of Death" could not be taught to Xia De, but Sister Sister Daifulin taught him the power to call ashes. It's just that the manifestation of this power in Xia De's hands is weaker than when Sister Sister Daifulin uses it herself.

【Outsider, you have obtained the sorcery - Ash Necromancy: When using psychic abilities, use ashes as additional casting materials, which can allow the summoned soul to briefly obtain an ash-like shell, allowing it to stay for a longer time. Corresponds to the 【True Death】 spiritual rune.】

This is a very standard ability of the necromancy school. Although Xia De has no intention of making progress in this direction, this ability is indeed very interesting, and maybe it can come in handy when investigating the dead in the future.

And what Xia De didn't realize at this moment was that not only the nun's enemies and those heroes who voluntarily sacrificed themselves to become firewood were used as firewood by the flames.

The endings of countless generations of fire-holding nuns from the beginning of the world to the present also belong to the flames.

Sister Sister Daifulin seemed to have forgotten what happened last time—referring to that kiss, and the communication with Xia De on this Sunday morning was no different from usual. However, when Xia De was about to leave at 11 o'clock in the morning, she took the initiative to call Xia De, clasped her hands together and hung them in front of her, "looked" at Xia De for a full half minute, before softly urging Xia De to pay attention to rest.

Although it was just a word of advice, it still made Xia De feel quite good.

He had lunch with Grandma Cassandra and the others in Mid-Hill Castle. The old witch and Rita who returned to Mid-Hill had entered the right track. Grandma Cassandra also teased Xia De at the dining table, saying that everyone was waiting for Xia De's next "summoning."

After lunch, Xia De went out with Grace and Helen. As for where they went, the witch apprentice with flaxen hair didn't know.

She only knew that the sisters didn't come back until Monday morning, laughing and talking. Rita Swift was curious about the details of this date, but was too embarrassed to ask.

And the Red Butterfly girls, who were satisfied both physically and mentally, kindly answered the girl's doubts. It's just that they described the private parts in too much detail. Rita turned red after hearing half of it and asked them to stop. The simple girl couldn't listen to such exciting things.

"Rita, happiness depends on your own efforts. You can also try to invite the gentleman to go out on a date, and seize the opportunity that the gentleman has no important things to deal with during this period."

Helen took the initiative to encourage, and Grace also encouraged her:

"Yes, look at how active that apprentice of the Great Witch of Balance is? Among the witch apprentices of your generation, only her personality can be compared with the witches of the Fifth Era."

Rita nodded gently with a red face. Grace was satisfied, and then took out a black gem and handed it to her. The gem was not formed naturally, and it contained a quite huge but pure dark power:

"This was taken out by the gentleman from the gift box this morning. He said to let us give it to you as a gift. Originally, we were worried that such a strong dark power would affect you, but now it seems that being simple and having few thoughts is not without benefits."

Rita took the black gem and asked the sisters:

"You say, when will Xia De have time?"

Grace and Helen then showed a smile.

Xia De didn't send this gift himself, not because he was very tired, but because Larus III called him to the Yodel Palace again, wanting him to investigate a small matter as a detective.

This was not an entrustment from the King—he now knows that Xia De is a ring warlock, even if he looks at Galina's face, it is unlikely to let him deal with boring cases again.

The entrustment came from Wang Hou Diana, who could now get out of bed and walk. She wanted to entrust Xia De to investigate the maid disappearance case that recently appeared in the Kindel family she came from.

The Kindel family has a Duke title. The police station has tried its best to investigate this kind of small case, but unfortunately, there is no clue, so Galina recommended Xia De, which can be considered as finding something for Xia De to do locally to maintain his reputation as a "famous detective."

Xia De was quite happy to receive the entrustment. During his past "vacations," he had also handled many bizarre cases that did not involve ring warlocks. It just so happened that Claire was very busy recently and had no time to come to Tobesk; in the schedule given by Margaret, this week belonged to the "not visitable" time.

So after receiving this entrustment task from Wang Hou Diana at noon on Monday, Xia De officially started his "vacation life," which is to make up for the missed courses and assignments while investigating this case that does not look very bizarre.
