Siris temporarily stopped her explanation, she asked Xia De:

"Tell me, Xia De, what did you think of?"

"Just feeling... I have neglected you for a long time."

Siris laughed:

"I thought you wanted to say something. Neglect? No, no, Xia De, although I cannot be by your side often like Luweiya and Galina, I know you will think of me from time to time, and I will also think of you from time to time. This is enough for me."

"I am the Great Priest, Cult Leader, and Nun of the 【Cult of the Forgotten】. For me, emotional connection lies not only in meeting every day, but also in longing. Of course, you cannot leave without saying a word like Father did. This is the only thing I cannot accept."

"Of course not... sometimes I really feel like I am a scumbag."

He reached out to hug Siris, and the young blonde girl patted his back gently, as if comforting Xia De:

"You cannot say that about yourself. No one is a perfect saint. Thirteen-Ring sorcerers are not, and neither are you. People will always have shortcomings. We are actually very afraid that you will really become a perfect person without shortcomings. That way, we won't be able to catch you."

Although Siris's age was on the younger side among the girls Xia De knew, at this moment she had the feeling of a mother taking care of a child:

"But to be honest, I am occasionally a bit jealous of Vanessa."

She whispered, pushed Xia De away gently, and stared at him with wide eyes, but closed her eyes after a moment. Xia De then kissed her, until Siris kicked off her shoes and curled up in Xia De's arms, and the conversation continued:

"Guess, is Vanessa eavesdropping right now? She has learned many interesting strange arts after advancing to the Thirteenth Tier."

Siris asked with a smile. While Xia De was thinking about this question, Siris interrupted Xia De's thinking with her kiss again.

However, the two did not spend all their night time talking about love. Siris and Xia De held hands and leaned in Xia De's arms to talk about the most important thing, which was helping people who lost their memories find them back.

The 【Cult of the Forgotten】 is the most professional in handling such things. It's just that Siris couldn't arrive at the scene to check the situation herself, so she could only tell Xia De some general methods to find memories back.

"There is no need to learn special divine arts for this. I still suspect that their amnesia is related to gods. This might be a test. Using divine arts to fight against the power of gods is the worst choice. I will provide you with three methods, I think there will always be one method that can work."

Siris's three methods are divine art items, magic potions, and relics. Helping Ms. Thorn and those two twin old witches find their memories back is an important part of the task "helping gods treat patients", so Xia De believed that he should be able to bring many things back to the past.

And the so-called "divine art items" are props made by Siris herself. Although this is still related to the Old God 【Old Man of Oblivion】, making divine art items is definitely more professional than Xia De using the strange arts he just learned.

It's just that Siris also needs time to prepare divine art items, so Xia De cannot get that thing tonight.

"Magic potion" is the "Strong Memory Recovery Potion" prepared by Siris according to the formula recorded in the cult's classics. She couldn't see the people who lost their memories herself, so she could only treat the problem according to the most serious situation.

The only function of this potion is to make people remember the forgotten memories. Siris intends to prepare the highest efficacy potion, ensuring that as long as you taste a drop, even the matter of bedwetting when you were a child can be recalled immediately. The efficacy of this magic potion does not involve very complex principles, relying purely on strong medicinal power to restore memories. In Siris's view, this is the most direct method.

As for "relics", it is still related to the Sage-level pistol 【Faded Memory】 that Xia De gave her. Siris is not thinking of letting Xia De take that relic to the past, but prepared bullets for Xia De's pistol.

That is a special relic derivative "False Memory Bullet" made by Siris combined with divine arts, which is a relic derivative not recorded by this relic.

After using any firearm to shoot this special bullet to hit the target, it will make the target obtain a false memory that is difficult to distinguish between true and false. This can confuse people's cognition, but for people who have lost important memories themselves, the bullet will tend to generate false memories to fill the gaps in memory.

The memories generated by amnesiacs are of course also false. The possibility of being the same as real memories is about the same as the possibility of randomly pressing a typewriter and resulting in a complete poem.

But even if it is a false memory, it will produce similarities with real memories because it adaptively fills the gaps in memory. And relying on that false memory, combined with a certain degree of guidance, real memories may automatically appear.

This is similar to getting some extra hint words when doing crossword puzzles in the newspaper. Siris explained the principle very complexly, and Xia De understood it simply like this.

In short, in order to help Xia De, Siris thought of many ways. Divine art items, magic potions, and bullets all need Xia De to come and get them before setting off, and Siris will also take advantage of the time to think of other means for Xia De.

Vanessa did not eavesdrop on the conversation between the two. She indeed wanted to leave time for Siris, but after finishing the work in her hands at 9:30 in the evening, Vanessa still couldn't help but come to the door of the study out of curiosity, and then listened carefully to the sound behind the door panel.

The sound insulation function of the room was almost equal to nothing for a Thirteenth-Tier Great Witch who deliberately wanted to eavesdrop. However, Vanessa did not hear any strange sounds. So she returned to the end of the corridor, and then knocked on the door with normal footsteps outside the study.

After opening the door and seeing Xia De and Siris standing up from the sofa holding hands, and Siris's face was still slightly red, Vanessa's heart was relieved. The witch blinked at Siris and showed a satisfied smile, very happy for her good friend.

When Xia De prepared to return home that night, Vanessa did not follow Xia De back. She believed that Siris had just spent the night with Xia De. If she left Siris alone and ran to Xia De's bedroom, it would seem that she was too urgent and too indifferent to friendship.

Anyway, there is plenty of time in the future, so Vanessa apologized in a low voice when saying goodbye to Xia De, and hinted that she would give Xia De some surprises as compensation when she went to find Xia De next time.

However, although Vanessa did not go to No. 6 St. Deran Square, it was not quiet at home at all. Xia De heard Danister and Flora talking as he walked up from the first floor holding the cat that came to greet him. After arriving on the second floor, he saw Flora standing in front of the easel, drawing the dragon egg placed on the coffee table with a pencil.

The artist lady first greeted Xia De, and then continued to devote herself to her artistic creation. She wanted to paint an oil painting, but after seeing the fascinating eggshell color of this egg, she thought that the pigments in her hand were not enough to depict such a beautiful night, so she first tried to record the appearance of the dragon egg with a pencil tonight, and then paint the final oil painting after preparing the pigments.

"Good evening, Flora. Danister, you actually agreed to Flora doing this."

Xia De said to Danister with surprise when he handed his coat to Winnie. Miss Administrator was sitting on the sofa reading a book and didn't understand Xia De's confusion:

"Flora took the initiative to leave oil paintings for me and the teacher that can be used for memories later. Why would I disagree?"

The artist lady behind the easel also showed a proud expression to Xia De at this time. Not only painting and music, but she also had deep attainments in the art of language expression.

According to Luweiya's divination, the dragon egg could hatch within half a month, so Flora had to be faster. The egg definitely couldn't wait for her to finish painting before breaking its shell. However, Flora herself was happy to do it. She was different from most witches. The constraints of her ordinary identity in reality were not deep, and she could go anywhere at any time. Most people couldn't do this.

Xia De originally thought Flora would stay overnight, and even Winnie was ready to tidy up a room for Flora, but when it was almost ten o'clock, Flora, who was chatting with Danister in the study, dropped her paintbrush:

"It's getting late, I'm going back to Vigo's place."

Danister also tried to persuade her to stay:

"Since it's getting late, Flora, you should stay. There are many rooms at Xia De's place."

The artist lady asked while tidying up her painting tools:

"Oh, Danister, if I really agreed without knowing what's good for me, do you guarantee that you won't be angry?"

"Flora, why would I be angry?"

Danister asked. At this time, Winnie walked over to indicate that she could tidy up the painting tools. After Flora expressed her gratitude, she said to her good friend with a smile:

"Why would you be angry, you must know it yourself."

After saying that, she didn't listen to Danister's explanation and went to say goodbye to Xia De. Xia De didn't want Flora to go back so late either, but Flora insisted on leaving:

"Charlotte is still at Vigo's place. I don't feel at ease letting Vigo watch so many people. Vigo has already proven that she is not reliable. The Fragrant Residence still has to rely on a Twelfth-Tier Great Witch like me to protect it."

She held Xia De's hand and let Xia De pull her for a turn, then kissed Xia De with a smile:

"Then see you tomorrow, Xia De. Margaret and Sylvia arrive at the Grey Rock Pass fortress at ten o'clock, don't forget~ Danister, you can't let Xia De sleep too late."

"Flora, you..."

But that artist lady with beautiful grey-black long hair had turned into an owl and flew towards the first floor at high speed, and her voice soon disappeared.

Danister could handle any other witch with ease, but only when facing Flora would she be provoked with various emotions.
