Chapter 3988: The Injured Witch

~10 min read 1,908 words

"Vigo..."

Looking at the tearful Vigo, Xia De really didn't know how to refuse in this situation. He had to let Vigo sit up, otherwise, he couldn't perform the "hug" action, but Vigo Astley obviously didn't think so.

This time she refused to sit up herself, continuing to look at Xia De with red eyes. Xia De had to take off his shoes and coat and crawl into the quilt. Vigo leaned over, curling herself up in Xia De's arms, truly feeling the temperature and listening to the powerful heartbeat, and only then was she satisfied.

Xia De did not stop her. After Vigo finished these actions, he reached out and hugged her. Vigo then squirmed twice to find the most comfortable position, then curled up and shed tears again:

"I am natural, not a product of strange experiments, which is of course good. But Mother really did that kind of thing, and I likely have an older sister... Why did she do such a thing, and what am I in Mother's plan?"

Xia De did not speak, just hugged her. And after Vigo cried for a while and controlled her emotions, Xia De then said:

"Vigo, do you regret meeting me?"

"No regrets, never regrets."

"If you hadn't met me, these things..."

"I would never have had the chance to figure it out."

"That's good. Since you don't regret it, I will definitely help you find the truth. Whether it's Mother or the sister you might have, I will help you figure out the things you want to know."

"Hmm."

She buried her face in Xia De's chest, and the strange thoughts that arose yesterday afternoon emerged again. She was a little flushed herself and didn't dare to look at Xia De's expression at all:

"The night is already deep, you..."

She wanted to let Xia De stay to accompany her, but Adele, Bella, and Megan were all here tonight, and reason reminded her that today was really not a suitable time.

But now that she had pulled Xia De here, if she let Xia De leave like this, Vigo was really unwilling. So her words stopped halfway, and her arms hugged Xia De so he wouldn't have a chance to get up, and she rubbed against Xia De like acting like a spoiled child for a long time before kissing Xia De.

"You will definitely come again on Sunday, right?"

"Of course, Vigo, we can discuss those words on the stele then."

"Then you go... remember to miss me..."

She pretended to push Xia De ruthlessly, but the action was actually very light. Xia De reached out to take the coat on the bedside table to find the crystal shoe card, but before throwing the shoe, he kissed Vigo's forehead lightly and then returned home.

Xia De's departure made Vigo feel that her side had suddenly become much colder. She blushed and leaned towards the position of the pillow Xia De had just used, but in the end, she was still embarrassed to lean her face over.

After waiting for a long time until her mood calmed down, she reached out and pulled the rope on the bedside. Not long after, Ms. Rolin, who heard the bell, rushed over:

"Master, what's wrong?"

She found that Vigo's complexion had obviously improved a lot. Although her eyes were still red, her mental state seemed quite good.

"I want to take a bath... Also, prepare a new set of underwear."

"Yes, Master."

Ms. Rolin did not suspect anything and immediately went to instruct the maids to work. Vigo sat up against the pillow, still with a blush on her face. Only she knew that when she was hugged and kissed by Xia De just now, she... Spring had come after all.

On the other side, it was already ten o'clock in the evening when Xia De returned home. At this time, Winnie had left, Luweiya was sitting on the sofa reading a book alone, and Little Mia was lying on the edge of the coffee table, letting her tail hang down and swinging it left and right.

Although Luweiya and the cat had no interaction, they had obviously adapted to each other's existence.

"Hard work."

Luweiya did not ask why Xia De had been gone for so long. Seeing Xia De return, she gave him a warm hug:

"Winnie left half an hour ago. I originally wanted to let her stay too, but that maid lady said she hadn't done the most intimate thing with you yet... In the past two months, you have had so many opportunities and no restrictions from others, did you really do nothing?"

It was not that they did nothing, just not that. But in fact, Winnie, as an elf of ice and snow and a favorite of the world, had a main body that was a mass of coldness, and the human body structure had no meaning to her.

Xia De did not explain this, hugged Luweiya and took a deep breath:

"You absolutely can't imagine, Arcadia is really lively tonight."

Luweiya smiled, then sniffed gently, knowing that Xia De had completed the task very satisfactorily.

The time for Xia De tonight was actually not over yet. He could already use both the black time key and the normal time key.

But he did not intend to open two keys in one night. The Outlander understood the principle of combining work and rest very well. Considering that Luweiya was staying overnight, Xia De only intended to use the "Key of Yggdrasil" to see Adele before going to bed, so as to facilitate understanding some things after meeting with the long-haired Luweiya in a dream.

As for the normal time key, it could be left until tomorrow morning.

Xia De did not tell Luweiya his plan. When changing clothes later, he told her what had happened in the two hours since he left home.

Luweiya was a little surprised that Vigo was finally verified to be completely normal:

"Her mother is so mysterious, and in the end, she is actually normal? Isn't she a product of human alchemy or illegal experiments?"

Xia De joked:

"Perhaps this is because there are already Megan and Audrey in the council, and there is no need for a second or third witch with an abnormal background."

Luweiya ignored this joke:

"But no matter what, since Vigo's mother mentioned things suspected to be related to the Chosen One, then she cannot be completely unrelated. Child of Perfection, and can be divided into four... I have never heard of such a statement before.

However, considering that Ms. Leme left the Truth Society, does it mean that she believes that the results she obtained in the 【Emerald Alchemy Association】 research are already completely greater than the value that the 【Truth Society】 can bring her?"

"This depends on what that 'Child of Perfection' is. Ms. Leme's description is quite bluffing—the path to the origin of creation, this is probably what the 【Emerald Tablet】 says. What I care more about is that the stele says the Child of Perfection can cure Vigo."

Xia De said:

"Ms. Leme's traces still need further investigation. There is a second thing tonight, the 【Son of God Alliance】 and the 【Magic Eye Club】 seem to be collecting fire seeds. The latter may be related to those defectors, and the split fire seed source may still need to absorb fire seeds."

"But what is the former going to do? Could it be that the 'Abomination' they want to create is also related to the fire seed?"

"This is hard to say, the evidence at this stage is insufficient."

Luweiya shook her head:

"However, the situation is tense now. If Vigo Astley does not have the assistance of other witches, she is indeed a bit reluctant in Arcadia City. Let her know about your relationship with other witches as soon as possible, and then send someone to support her. Don't play Galina's game for too long."

Xia De thought of the crying girl tonight and nodded gently:

"No problem, Angelina will go there next week, this is a good opportunity."

Luweiya had already finished taking a bath at home. Xia De changed into pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a bath. He put the black time key and the card containing his outdoor clothes into his pocket, opened the shower, changed his clothes quickly, and then inserted the key into the lock of the bathroom door.

"May the World Tree protect me in infinite time!"

Click~

With a gentle push, it was not his own living room behind the door, but the familiar endless white fog. Xia De felt that he could almost see Adele's figure.

"She" reminded softly:

【Outlander, please note. A message from the "Infinite Tree Father": You are allowed to carry an extra relic this time.】

When Xia De entered the bathroom, he just brought the small-volume "Star Trace" and "Perfume Bottle" in. He didn't use the perfume bottle much in the present world, but he didn't mind bringing it when entering the past adventures.

"One piece..."

After careful consideration, he still chose the perfume bottle, and then stepped into the fog door.

【Outlander, you have stepped into the "Corridor of Time."】

【A message from the ancient god "Infinite Tree Father":】

【Past Era · Sixth Era, Old Continent, City of End · Tobesk.】

【Event: Tobesk, the Last Era.】

【Duration arbitrary (9/∞).】

【You have obtained additional information.】

【You have stepped into a non-existent history.】

【The figure of the Infinite Tree Father watches you.】

【Note: During this exploration, you cannot leave the St. Deran Square area.】

【Note: You are allowed to carry any spellcasting materials into this period of time.】

【Note: Use the time key to defeat any powerful enemy, and you can return to the "present" time.】

The white fog slowly dissipated after "her" voice fell, and behind the pulled "curtain" was the familiar yet unfamiliar dilapidated home.

Compared to when Xia De first came, because Adele had lived here for a long time, although it was still dilapidated, it was at least not particularly cold. The sofa and coffee table were no longer covered with white cloth, a warm fire was flickering in the dilapidated fireplace, and some tea sets brought by Xia De were placed above the fireplace.

The paint-peeling wooden wardrobe was placed on the side of the sofa, and there was a square dining table with a strong Fatu style on the side of the wardrobe.

Arriving in the doomsday era suddenly, the familiar headache and nausea still made Xia De frown and kneel on one knee. But while he was adapting to the environment at this moment, he suddenly smelled blood in the musty smell.

"What?"

Enduring the discomfort, he stood up and followed the smell to the sofa. This sofa was Adele's bed when she usually slept. Compared to sleeping in the wild, this living environment was good enough for Adele.

And at this moment, the blonde witch with tear moles at the corners of her eyes was lying on the sofa with her eyes closed, bandages wrapped around her right chest, and bloodstains could be vaguely seen under the bandages.

"Adele is injured?"

Hearing footsteps, the witch opened her eyes. Seeing Xia De looking at her with a worried face, Adele reached out her hand upwards, and Xia De hurriedly grabbed it with both hands. ===== CHAPTER 3989 =====
