Chapter 3926
Early Saturday morning, Xia De originally planned to go to Arcadia City after breakfast. But when he was washing up in the bathroom early in the morning, first Ellie walked up the stairs with light steps together with Emilia, and then Danister also appeared here.
The appearance of the white-haired unicorn girl always made everyone smile unconsciously; everyone liked her, and recently the maids had specially stored a lot of apples in the kitchen cabinet of this house, which was also specially used to entertain Ellie.
In this way, counting the three ladies who were originally at home and Xia De, there were a full seven people sitting around the breakfast table this morning. However, both Emilia and Ellie had very slim figures, so they didn't need to add a table if they squeezed together.
Xia De sat at one end of the long dining table, Galina sat at the other end, and on Xia De's left and right sides were Luvia and Danister. Little Mia jumped onto the table as usual, but before lying down by Xia De's hand, it also "Meow~" at Ellie as a greeting, and Ellie also waved at Little Mia excitedly.
They looked like very good friends, which reminded Xia De of Flora and Little Mia during the time at Vista Forest. It's just that after Flora removed the time curse and restored her "human" race, Little Mia didn't like her much anymore.
While the maids, who hadn't expected so many people this morning, were busy preparing breakfast, Xia De told his experience from yesterday again.
Emilia's eyes lit up when she heard that the 【Blood Spirit School】 had reappeared. The little elf, who had long been thinking about joining a new adventure, immediately became eager to try:
"Then do you need my help? Arcadia City, the library there is very famous!"
"I think Xia De doesn't need your help for the time being."
Danister glanced at her, and then said to Xia De:
"The disappearance of blood-kin doesn't look like a small problem at all. In fact, some time ago, the Academy heard news from the church that the Blood-Crying One of the 【Blood Spirit School】 was witnessed to be active on the New Continent."
"He has completed his rebirth, hasn't he?"
Sylvie asked, and the administrator shook her head:
"It is not clear for the time being; the state of the Blood-Crying One in that witness report was very strange. But since he took the initiative to appear, even if he hasn't completely completed his rebirth, I am afraid his strength has at least recovered to his previous normal level.
Xia De, you must guard against the 'Blood-Crying One' Hermons appearing directly in Arcadia City. Even if the headquarters of the 【Church of Creation】 is right next to it, it is difficult for us to estimate the thoughts of a madman."
"I understand."
Ellie and Emilia really just came for a free breakfast this morning; they had no classes today. Danister specially approved that Emilia could go to Vista Forest to play today; they were going to visit the chocobos and then soak in the hot springs together.
As for little Liana who was still sleeping in, she didn't have the 【Space】 spirit rune and couldn't go to such a far place, but the little unicorn should be very glad that she didn't have to be woken up by Ellie this morning.
As for Danister herself, she came to deliver study materials to Xia De:
"A few days ago you said you wanted to learn the Red Moon Arcane Arts related to 'Flesh Withering' and 'Flesh Corruption'; I have already prepared them for you. When you followed me to study some time ago, I only let you study the fundamental nature of the moon in depth and didn't teach you new powers, just to let you settle down and better explore the potential of the moon's power.
Now it seems it is about time; keep this roll of parchment well, and I have also prepared the materials for learning the Arcane Arts in the library for you. This Arcane Art should not be difficult for you."
The brand-new Arcane Art provided by Danister was actually a rare Arcane Art that summons a "spiritual weapon." So far, Xia De's "spiritual weapons" only included the "Chain of Sin," the "Moonlight Greatsword," and the "Thunder Spear" in the held state, while the "Thorn of Love" could only count as half because of its special effect.
This brand-new Arcane Art was named 【Blood Moon Arc Light】. When casting the spell, bite your finger and smear a crescent mark on the palm of your other hand, and then you can summon a blood-colored longbow.
Danister of course also knew this Arcane Art. Taking advantage of the fact that everyone hadn't left after breakfast, she also demonstrated the appearance of "Blood Moon Arc Light":
"You see."
Compared to a longbow, it was actually more like a huge glowing red crescent moon. Its appearance was very beautiful, and the material constituting the longbow was not like metal or wood, but like translucent crystal, just like the "Moonlight Greatsword."
"The Arcane Art 'Blood Moon Arc Light' can be attached to a longbow that exists in reality, such as Xia De's 【Trace of Stars】. After using this Arcane Art, you can either directly condense blood-colored arrows or use physical arrows.
But no matter what kind of arrows are used, the arrows will be attached with the light of the red moon, and then produce the special effect of 'detonating flesh' after contacting flesh creations. And this bow possesses special properties; after shooting arrows at the moon, it can form thousands of blood arrows like blood rain falling from the sky."
Danister introduced it to Xia De while holding the longbow:
"I recommend this Arcane Art, more because I consider that you have been active in urban areas recently. Compared to large-scale destructive Arcane Arts, the 'Blood Moon Arc Light' longbow is actually more suitable for you, and besides, you already have 【Corrupt Blood Mist】."
Galina asked Danister:
"Can this Arcane Art also be used in combination with other arrow-type Arcane Arts? Last summer, didn't Miss Feilianna teach Xia De a witch secret art called 【Arrow of Night】?"
The sorceress nodded:
"Of course you can, I also considered this point. The attributes of night and moon are quite compatible. Using these two Arcane Arts at the same time might bring Xia De a surprise."
【Blood Moon Arc Light】 and 【Moonlight Greatsword】 were both standard high-ring Arcane Arts. Learning this Arcane Art should ideally be done at night, but Danister considered that Xia De might encounter many things in succession recently, so she planned to take Xia De to learn the Arcane Art this morning:
"Xia De, let's go with me after breakfast in a while; a morning is enough for you to learn this Arcane Art."
Because there were many people, breakfast lasted a long time this day. Everyone exchanged various things, and Xia De also shared his adventures in the Fifth Era with Emilia and Ellie.
Upon hearing that Xia De used the 【Bubble Spell】 and needed "bubble pods," Emilia smiled and talked about how she liked to find this kind of weed-like plant on the grassland with little elves of the same race when she was a child, and then use it to blow bubbles. So Ellie curiously tugged at Emilia's sleeve and wanted to take a look.
No one could refuse Ellie, so Xia De asked the maid to help take those pods out from the study.
Afterwards, while the other ladies were still talking, the little elf and the unicorn girl chewed the pods together and blew bubbles. Without the blessing of the 【Bubble Spell】, the bubbles they blew were as fragile as soap bubbles, but they still laughed together.
Luvia took the opportunity to ask about Ellie's situation at the Academy recently, and Danister praised her:
"Ellie is very studious, or rather, all those little unicorns are very studious now. Unicorns are different from other students; they don't understand what lying is at all, so they will never find excuses not to hand in homework, and if they don't understand in class, they will obediently go to ask after class.
When I communicated with several professors, I heard them mention that if one-tenth of the students in the Academy were as obedient as this group of unicorn girls, I am afraid the difficulty of being a teacher could be reduced by half at once."
Emilia felt as if she was talking about her. Emilia wouldn't lie and not hand in homework; she just sometimes didn't hand in homework on time.
"And Ellie is very studious and likes reading very much. There are many common sense questions that students who have lived in the Academy for a long time often get wrong—for example, the oldest tree in the Academy is not the holy tree of the Moon Creek clan, but the 'Dragon Blood Tree' in the central courtyard of the Academy, but Ellie remembered this after reading the school history herself."
Now Emilia knew that Danister was talking about her. Last week, she was entrusted by Grandma Qishala to invite the principal and the librarian to be guests at the current 'Elf Capital' for a meal, but she ended up saying such wrong remarks during the banquet.
Grandma Qishala was very embarrassed at the time, but Danister, who was a teacher, was even more embarrassed. Danister was deliberately pointing at Emilia again, meaning that she could go out to play today, but she still had to study hard after returning from playing out.
Xia De, Luvia, and the witches couldn't hear this deep meaning. Although Ellie could hear it, she didn't care, because she was struggling to blow a special bubble.
Xia De also noticed that Ellie actually spat out an apple-like bubble when the cat tilted its head and looked over. She didn't use any Arcane Art spells; it seemed to rely entirely on her own skills. No one knew how she did it. This was probably also the influence of the unicorn's magical "the believing heart is magic" talent on reality.
Just now Sylvie was discussing the topic of "composite Arcane Arts" with Danister, that is, two Arcane Arts can be cast at the same time to produce wonderful effects, so Sylvie asked Xia De:
"Speaking of which, can your 【Bubble Spell】 be used together with 【Dragon Breath】? After all, they are both powers sprayed with the mouth."
Xia De hadn't thought about this question before, so after breakfast, he also chewed the bubble pods. The glue taste of this thing was quite heavy, so Xia De chewed while asking Emilia:
"Hasn't anyone thought about making this kind of interesting material into candy? As long as the taste is suitable, this kind of snack that is both fun and can give sweetness for a long time shouldn't be unsellable, right? Children should like this kind of candy."
"Hmm?"
The little elf with her head tilted tried to understand what Xia De had suddenly said, and at this moment Xia De was already prepared:
"Dragon Breath-Bubble Spell!"
