Chapter 4218: Little Mia and the Egg
Because of that sentence once said by the Madonna of the Infant, Weigao also disliked this group of people very much, but Xia De did not let her contact Adele in the present world:
"Those lunatics have only just recovered their ability to act. Calling that Great Witch of Time over might not necessarily lead to finding their current stronghold. Let's see what these people want to do first. On that skeleton of the blasphemer I saw in the Fifth Era, there was power very similar to what the 'Madonna of the Infant' was holding. I will go and ask that God next time how to eliminate that kind of power, or at least know how to defend against that kind of power."
Weigao nodded, hugging Xia De's arm and sitting on the sofa:
"Ever since the matter of the 【Skin House】 ended, no major events have appeared again, but I always have a bad premonition recently. I'm afraid this city will not continue to be peaceful."
Xia De kissed her side face:
"Don't worry, I'm here for everything."
"Mm."
Weigao nodded lightly, smiling and leaning on Xia De's shoulder. Ajielina and Yifu were also in the study at this time. The little princess made a face at her friend—she wouldn't dare do this at the Yodel Palace, and Yifu smiled and didn't say anything.
When returning home by throwing the crystal shoe, Winnie was making dinner, and Vanessa, who came from Moon Bay, was helping on the side. Not long after, when Xia De returned holding that dragon egg whose shell was like the night sky, Vanessa smiled and said to Xia De:
"Xilis said you can go find her at any time, she is also very interested in the swamp you mentioned in the letter."
Then she pointed to herself again:
"I am here to deliver a message, but since I am here, I won't be leaving tonight."
Saying this, she greeted Danniste who was walking up from the basement, and then looked at the egg Xia De was holding:
"It looks very calm, will it really be restless at night?"
The red-haired administrator Miss sighed:
"You will understand when night comes. If it disturbs everyone's rest, I can apologize in advance."
When everyone was eating dinner together, they also discussed the question of whether the life about to be born would be a dragon-type creature or a human-shaped baby. Winnie, who had the most extensive knowledge, believed that the life about to be born would most likely be able to switch between dragon and human, or be a human-shaped life with dragon-like characteristics like a dragon-born.
And what Danniste worried about most was actually that the life in the egg would no longer remember everything from the past. In this way, although the soul was still Ms. Helena Carter, whether she was still the original person could not be accurately defined.
Fortunately, Xia De dispelled her doubts:
"Do you still remember this name—Helena Carter."
In the gap of eating, Xia De placed his hand on that night-colored dragon egg and asked, and the dragon egg immediately shook lightly. Although it was just shaking, everyone could see that this was an affirmative meaning.
"Meow~"
The cat also wanted Xia De to pet it, and Danniste complained:
"Really, I have communicated with the teacher so many times, she never pays attention to me. Why does the teacher immediately have a reaction as soon as Xia De speaks? Is he that popular?"
Winnie and Vanessa both laughed, while Xia De recalled the harvest from that "Death Dream" a few days ago:
"I might be more popular with children. This is also a good thing, at least tonight I can try to coax her to sleep."
"Taking care of children is really not easy. I see Aili and Amelia taking care of those young unicorns is very easy."
Danniste said in a low voice again, not admitting that she had no talent for this.
After dinner, Winnie took the initiative to stay and did not return to the Fatumont Island. The loyal ice maid Miss thought that Xia De couldn't possibly hug that egg all night to sleep, and tonight might need her to take care of that egg.
Just as Danniste said, after the night color gradually became deep, the egg that was originally resting steadily on the soft cushion really took the initiative to shake.
The weather in Tobesk was bad tonight, and the moonlight couldn't shine into the window at all, so Danniste took out Xia De's "Source of Chaos," letting the bright yellow moonlight shine on the eggshell. At the same time, Xia De cast "Curtain of Night," creating a small area of quiet night color in the room.
Originally the whole family was discussing Xia De's time adventure in the study, and at this time they were all curiously looking at that egg. The moonlight and night color did make it stable for a period of time, but soon it started shaking again.
"I originally thought it needed a suitable environment, but now it seems, this child is just very restless as soon as night comes."
Danniste was not very willing to say such things:
"The teacher still has her own memories, but at the same time will be affected by the body's instincts, producing some childish behaviors."
"Princess Lei Qianya once said that her younger sisters were also like this when they were young."
Xia De said, reaching out to pet that egg again. It really calmed down, but as soon as Xia De withdrew his hand, that egg started shaking again.
Xia De had to continue reaching out to pet it. Although it was a bit bad to say this, Xia De felt that some of the egg's reactions were very similar to Little Mia.
"What will happen if you don't pay attention to it?"
Vanessa asked curiously, Danniste shook her head:
"How can I not pay attention to the teacher? She will be very lonely. However... why does the teacher calm down as soon as Xia De reaches out? I hugged her last night and sang lullabies to her all night!"
Everyone was holding back their laughter, and Xia De tried to take his hand off the egg. This time the dragon egg didn't continue shaking, but stood quietly in that night color while bathing in the moonlight. However, Danniste believed it wouldn't be quiet for too long:
"At most half an hour."
Thus, everyone discussed the topics of "Pregnant Magic Eye," "Blasphemer," and "White Fog and Memory" in the study again. Winnie was calculating the time on the side. Half an hour later, she gave a reminder, but at this time everyone looked at that egg again, except for Little Mia lying on the egg, the egg didn't have any changes.
The size of this egg now was much larger than Little Mia, and the cat was just lying on the top of the egg, which was no different from lying on top of Xia De's head. Everyone had noticed Little Mia's actions just now, but even Danniste didn't mean to stop the cat; after all, everyone knew Little Mia was very well-behaved.
And at this moment the egg was still motionless, and Danniste only thought that the young life in the egg was tired from playing and needed a longer time to rest. Thus the discussion continued, but until ten o'clock that night when everyone was preparing to rest, that egg didn't show any signs of shaking again.
Thus, a most reasonable guess appeared:
"Can Little Mia make this egg stable?"
"Can move Little Mia away, and see what reaction this egg will have next."
Xia De suggested, but this met with unanimous opposition from the girls:
"It finally calmed down, just let Little Mia stay with it."
Vanessa summarized again:
"Have you discovered, Little Mia seems to like this kind of... non-human race that can transform into human form. When Fulora transformed into an owl in the Vista Forest last year, wasn't she also very popular with Little Mia? But after the time curse was eliminated, Little Mia didn't get close to her much."
"This preference is really strange."
Xia De then petted the cat's head:
"Can you take care of this egg tonight?"
"Meow~"
The cat called softly, Xia De then looked at Winnie, and the crystal-clear maid Miss nodded with a smile:
"I will live in the side bedroom next door with them. If you need to confirm their situation at night, you can come over at any time."
Danniste had no objections to this. After watching Winnie put the egg on the soft cushion on the bedside table, and Little Mia also lying beside the egg preparing to sleep, only then did Danniste return to Xia De's bedroom with peace of mind.
"Taking care of children is really not easy."
Although she said this, the smile on her face didn't decrease at all.
Xia De suggested again:
"Little Mia seems to like that egg, and Ms. Carter is not repulsed by Little Mia either. I think, why not leave the egg at home during the day and let Little Mia stay with it. If you are worried, I can let Winnie stay at home to take care of them."
Vanessa thought this idea was quite good:
"Danniste, anyway you haven't found a way to make the egg hatch completely, and you can't possibly bring it with you when you are in class at the Academy. Instead of putting it in your high tower or putting it in the library, it's better to leave it at home and stay with Little Mia."
She also hinted:
"You can come to see it every night, it's not troublesome to come over from the library."
Although Danniste was not willing to let the teacher she had finally found back stay away from her, she had already regarded Xia De's place as her own home, so she only thought slightly and agreed:
"Alright, then I will trouble Winnie and Little Mia. If Aili and Amelia don't have class, I will arrange for them to come over during the day as well. After all, there is no difference between doing homework in the library and doing homework at your place."
Before that night-colored dragon egg hatched, Danniste would probably often stay overnight at No. 6 St. Deran Plaza. Danniste was a bit afraid of other girls gossiping, but everyone was very understanding of her.
And another result caused by this matter was that Winnie, from then on, had a reason to stay at No. 6 St. Deran Plaza more frequently. The ice maid Miss unknowingly upgraded from a "cooking maid" to a true "homemaking maid," only one step away from a "personal maid," and everyone didn't even notice all this.
After falling asleep hugging Vanessa and Danniste that night, although Xia De didn't dream of the "Origin Sea" again, but probably because of that egg, he had a very strange dream again.
Little Mia and Ms. Carter appeared in the dream, but it wasn't Little Mia lying beside the egg, but the petite young Ms. Carter with a dragon tail and dragon wings, lying beside a very large egg.
The orange-white patterns on that egg were exactly the same as Little Mia's fur color, and as the egg shook slightly, the creature in the egg broke out of the shell. But what Xia De saw was not a larger version of Little Mia, but a... with cat ears and a cat tail... ===== CHAPTER 4219 =====
