Chapter 4039: Rose Blooms

~10 min read 1,891 words

"Self-thinking normal... Then do you have any traits different from normal people? I mean physical traits."

Vigo asked again, then remembered the day Xia De brought her consciousness back from the huge Seed of Life source, she indeed felt Xia De's "specialty" in her bedroom. The Witch blushed, but what Xia De thought of was not this:

"Not to mention the strength in physical fitness, the most special trait is probably that I can absorb any power that can strengthen me. This body devours any external power and can convert it into power suitable for me. I still haven't figured out the upper limit of this absorption and devouring ability."

"Any external power? Can the world's disaster also be?"

Vigo then asked. She was originally just joking, but Xia De actually nodded:

"Yes, I have devoured the disaster of the earth. Although I was seriously ill and bedridden for more than half a month afterward, I was fine after the illness was cured. It was also because of that incident that my petrification resistance is almost full."

Vigo blinked, not asking why Xia De would devour such things. She just didn't know what to say for a long time:

"Then, why do you think you are an ordinary human? This doesn't sound like a trait an ordinary human should have at all. Even the new humans created by the 【Blood Spirit School】 cannot have this trait."

"She" laughed softly:

【This is a good question.】

Xia De thought for a while:

"Because except for this ability, I am not much different from ordinary people."

Vigo was speechless for a while, wanting to say that Xia De's cute cat was not much different from him except for its appearance, but she couldn't say that Xia De and his cat were of the same kind because of this.

"You think so yourself... Forget it, this is not important. I like you no matter what you are. However, your life form is 'Perfect,' and I don't know what connection it has with the 'Child of Perfection' Mother pursued. You said you were an orphan and didn't know where you came from..."

Vigo Astley thought of a possibility, and her face became terrified:

"Wait a minute, your origin won't also be related to Mother, right? You are actually my younger bro..."

"Stop! This thought is really strange."

Xia De interrupted her, and "She" in his ear was also laughing.

"Don't think so much. There must be other valuable items in the legacy left by your mother. We won't comment on her good or evil for the time being, but we can still use the things she left behind. After all, before your sister reappears, you are the only legitimate heir of the alchemist Flamel."

Vigo still suspected that Xia De was related to her. Xia De's blood happened to allow her to temporarily recover her health, which already explained the problem. But since Xia De didn't admit it, Vigo didn't talk about this topic anymore. Whether there was a blood relationship, it wasn't something she cared about very much anyway.

"If my sister can really aggregate and revive, will she look like me? Or is she just very much like Mother?"

"This question... although she is highly likely to be your sister, she should still just be an infant, right?"

Vigo nodded very seriously:

"Then, do I need to raise her up?"

The housekeeper, Miss Lorin, pursed her lips to keep herself from laughing, while Xia De didn't have to worry so much, and he laughed directly:

"We are all worried that the child needs to draw some necessary power from you, but you are thinking about raising her. Vigo, you are really kind. However, if she is really safe for you, you can consider doing so."

Vigo continued to nod:

"Since I was a child, I hoped that I could have brothers and sisters. If that child is okay, I will adopt her... It's really strange, recently I often have the idea of becoming a mother to take care of children, and it was the same after you rescued me from the Holy See last time..."

Vigo shook her head and didn't think about this problem anymore:

"In short, no matter what Mother wants to do, the child is innocent after all."

Because she thought of the possibility of having an infant sister, Vigo was in a good mood during lunch that day, and chatted with Xia De about how she could transform one of the guest rooms on the second floor of Fragrant Residence into a nursery.

Xia De always felt that she seemed a little too excited.

Of course, the expectation for children was still not as good as the charm of a certain Outlander. During lunch, Vigo talked about Xia De's affairs again, complained about Angelina as usual, and then asked about Xia De's daily life:

"I know now that you live in a very far place and have a very cute cat by your side. Then are there any other resident members in your home?"

Her intention was to ask if Xia De lived with one of her colleagues, but Xia De didn't understand this layer of meaning, and he answered:

"Resident members? Except for me and Little Mia, there is also a maid in my home. That maid came to work at my home after the end of the year festival this year. She is responsible for the three meals a day at home, and her craft is very good, but she rarely lives directly on my side, and usually leaves after dinner."

"Maid? Is the other party also a Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi?"

Vigo knew that Xia De had several female "friends" who were not Witches, but she didn't care much about those girls. After all, ordinary girls couldn't compare to Witches who possessed "Perfect" attributes in all aspects, not to mention Vigo considered herself a Witch among Witches.

"She is a Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi, and a High-Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi. However, she is very old... older than you, me, Miss MacDonald, and Little Mia combined."

Vigo nodded knowingly, outlining the image of a plump aunt wearing an apron and quite muscular in her head:

"Then what is the place where you live like?"

She asked with great interest again.

"I was adopted by my uncle back then. After he passed away, he left the house to me. That house is a three-story apartment with a basement and an attic. Although it is not as big as Fragrant Residence, it is also spacious for me and Little Mia to live in."

Vigo went to imagine the kind of plain apartment building in the Lower City, so she thought that after getting married in the future, she could invite Xia De to live here with her. She didn't have a deep understanding of Xia De's life, so she took this opportunity to ask Xia De more life questions while eating, and finally asked curiously:

"Is your life so simple? With your conditions, you could easily live a better life, right?"

In fact, in the eyes of the Outlander, except for the entertainment means not as good as his hometown, his life in this era was already very good:

"I am very satisfied with my current state of life, especially since a piece of important new furniture was replaced in my home recently, which makes that house more comfortable."

Vigo didn't realize what Xia De said at all, she just revealed a sweet smile:

"Life experience tells me that people like you who are obviously powerful but don't pursue material desires must have greater pursuits in other aspects."

After lunch, the two planned to see those alchemists. Although Vigo had dealt with them before, this was the first time for such a private meeting. She had made preparations in advance to ensure that her true identity would not be leaked, and even brought the "Life Detector" intending to try the effect again.

And the alchemists were also very wary of Vigo, so they were very cautious when choosing a meeting place.

They didn't dare to meet Vigo in the wilderness, but they didn't choose to be in the city either. The final location chosen was an inn in the Gray Rock Pass fortress.

Both sides could only have at most three people participating in this meeting. Besides Xia De, Vigo also called her housekeeper, Miss Laura Lorin, who was also a High-Ring.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the three set off from Fragrant Residence in the drizzle. After getting off the carriage in the Outer City, they took a public rental carriage and continued to move toward the Gray Rock Pass fortress. After getting off at the entrance of the inn named "Lady Rose's Caress," Xia De looked up at the inn's sign and was very certain that this inn was very indecent.

This was not a place of service nature that was open to the public, but it was not an inn that strictly provided only accommodation and dining like "Green Lake Inn" or "Accordion Inn."

Vigo also frowned after seeing the sign, and then signaled Xia De to walk in front. And after pushing the door and entering, the smell of powder and the sound of cheerful music being played also proved that this place was indeed not particularly decent.

"Lady Rose's Caress" inn was a three-story building, and the area of each floor was very large. The first floor was a place for eating, drinking, and having fun, while the two floors above were accommodation areas. Seeing a handsome young man bringing two ladies who were deliberately hiding their appearance, the plump woman with thick powder on her face immediately walked up shaking her handkerchief:

"Oh, look at this handsome young man. I bet you can fascinate most of the girls here. Then this guest, do you want to sit with your friends in a quieter place on the first floor, or should I arrange a room upstairs for you?"

She squinted her eyes with a smile:

"There is a bath in the room, and the sound insulation is very good. We are famous for safety here."

Xia De shook his head:

"I am here to see a friend, third floor, that room is called 'Rose Blooms'."

"Oh, so it's a distinguished guest, please follow me, this way please."

This not-so-decent inn could operate so largely in the Gray Rock Pass fortress, of course, because this place also undertook some necessary functions.

For example, some rooms on the third floor were often used for some meetings and talks that were inconvenient for the outside world to know. To go to the room named "Rose Blooms," one couldn't even walk the inn's stairs. The leading plump woman first took the group to an empty room on the second floor, and only after opening the door that looked like a changing room inside the bedroom with a key did the stairs to the room on the left wing of the third floor appear.

When Xia De and the three entered the "Rose Blooms" room, the three alchemists had already arrived. Two men and one woman, among whom only one man who looked slightly younger was a ninth-ring, and the other two were both twelfth-ring. ===== CHAPTER 4040 =====
