Chapter 538: The Kicked Candlestick
Bidding farewell to Miss Galina, Xia De held the cat and, led by Difa, walked through the corridor from the study on the second floor to the guest room where Luweiya lived. Along the way, he saw the servants who had woken up tidying up the manor that hadn't been cleaned all day. Everyone nodded and greeted Xia De when they saw him.
It was 10 o'clock in the evening, but they still had to be busy for a while before going to rest. However, this was not because Miss Galina was harsh on her servants, but because everyone had slept for almost a whole day, and it was hard to fall asleep now.
"Miss and the servants have talked about it. From now on, it is assumed that you are also the master here, so please treat this as your home."
Difa explained softly, leading Xia De to continue walking forward, but in the end, she didn't take Xia De to see Luweiya directly, but walked further and further away, and even lit a candlestick, walking into the area where the light was getting dimmer and dimmer.
Finally, they stopped in a corridor without lights. From the location, this was a remote location on the east side of the manor mansion.
Miss Galina naturally didn't lack the gold pounds to pay for gas lamps, so even at night, most corridors in the manor mansion were lit. There were no lights here, which only meant that very few people would walk over here, so it was impossible for Luweiya to be arranged to live near here.
Just when Xia De was puzzled, Difa, who was holding the candlestick in front, turned to look at Xia De, then bent down slightly, turned her body sideways, and placed the candlestick on the ground.
"Hmm..."
Xia De didn't know what happened again.
"Xia De, there is one thing that needs to be clarified."
The girl wearing a maid dress put her hands together in front of her body and looked at Xia De. There was no light here, only the candlelight at her feet was still flickering.
"If I had agreed just now, it would definitely not be just because I wanted to thank you."
She looked at Xia De with beautiful eyes, and Xia De opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and it took at least three seconds to understand the meaning she wanted to express.
"Yes, I was not prepared. After becoming Miss Galina's maid, I never thought that I would have any intimate contact with a man."
She said softly, and then raised her hands, unbuttoning her top one by one. Xia De was even more surprised. He had always thought that the row of silver buttons extending from the neckline to about the upper part of the chest was just decoration. It seemed that this dress was more complicated than he thought.
"Also, please don't think that I can only accept Miss's orders and have no opinions of my own."
She looked at Xia De with those brown-black eyes, and her red lips curled up. This was a smile. She unbuttoned the four buttons from the neckline downward. Inside was a lady's shirt. Because it was late summer, the shirt was very thin, and Xia De could see the skin below her neck.
Her hands then unbuttoned the four buttons on the shirt:
"To prevent being discovered by others, we can stay here for three minutes. Although I can't let you taste a big meal, small snacks are still possible."
She said softly, looking at Xia De with her neck exposed. Xia De looked at the curves in front of him and said hesitantly:
"I still don't hope that you do this kind of thing because of so-called wanting to thank me. That gift was given to you by Miss Feilianna, not me."
The black-haired girl chuckled. There were shyness, charm, and many complex emotions in that smile, which Xia De could not fully understand.
"You really would say that. Then, how about treating this as an apology? Apologizing for the fact that I obeyed Miss's order just now and forcibly imprisoned you."
She said softly, and the dimples on her face were very obvious.
"Hmm..."
"There are still two minutes and 49 seconds."
Difa walked to Xia De, straightened her chest slightly, and then her right hand pressed on the back of Xia De's head, trying to press it downward.
"Hmm..."
【There are still two minutes and 42 seconds.】
Xia De did not resist, and his head was pressed down.
Difa's right hand pressed on the back of Xia De's head, biting her lower lip slightly, with a blush and smile on her face. She used her left hand to pull the side of her skirt upward, revealing her left foot, and then kicked backward with her left foot. The candlestick was kicked over, and the candlelight went out:
"Perhaps, staying here for five minutes is also possible."
"Meow?"
The cat that was being held by Xia De and pretending to sleep was very strange why the lights were suddenly turned off.
Then she was thrown to the ground by Xia De because she was in the way.
(Little Mia is running...)
"Why is your face so red?"
Seeing Xia De walking into the door, Luweiya lying on the bed asked strangely. After he sat on the chair by the bed, she frowned and sniffed:
"What is this smell on you, why is it so... fragrant? Oh, it's the perfume on that beautiful maid."
"Can you smell it too? This is the perfume used by Witches, and only a very small number of people can smell it."
Xia De sniffed lightly, but he didn't smell any smell on himself.
"I can smell it, this smell is really good. However, what did you do just now? Why is there such a strong fragrance on you?"
She asked with a smile, seeing Xia De's embarrassed look not knowing how to answer, she laughed even more happily:
"Look, I knew it, men all like that kind of beautiful girl with a good figure. Xia De, I bet you were very dishonest just now. However, harassing other people's maids in someone else's house is not the way a gentleman should behave."
It was very difficult for Xia De to explain to her who was harassed just now.
"Go for a walk with me, it's boring to lie here all the time. Let's go for a walk in the courtyard, I saw it from the window, it's very beautiful here."
She proposed.
"Okay, it's good to go out for a walk. However, have you had dinner? I had dinner with Miss Galina just now, you were still sleeping at that time."
"The servants have already sent it, this kind of noble life, it's my first time experiencing it."
"How does your body feel?"
"Very good, don't worry about me, I didn't accompany you to..."
Xia De knew that Luweiya wanted to walk in the courtyard, actually because she didn't want to communicate sensitive issues in the mansion. Xia De only said that she was a person who helped him, and didn't say the relationship between Luweiya and 【Whisper Poem】, and Luweiya herself didn't want the Witch to know this secret.
So they walked from the second floor to the first floor together, and then came to the courtyard for a walk. There were also many servants working in the night in the courtyard. The darkness corroded the plants, causing most of the plants to wither. This was something that 【Feilianna's Witch's Light】 could not change, so the servants were pruning the flower beds.
Walking into the courtyard, under the gentle moonlight above his head, Xia De told the whole story of what happened after he parted with Luweiya in the manor.
Hearing that human pus used crystals to imprison high-level Ring Mages, Luweiya looked worried; hearing that Xia De spat out 【Weak Angel Potion】 and was still knocked away with Yin Yi Yi Lu Na, she whispered to ask about Xia De's physical condition; hearing that 【Darkness Box】 went out of control and Xia De swallowed the darkness in the darkness, she grabbed Xia De's arm tightly; hearing that Little Mia took the opportunity to steal the 【Fish-Training Ring】 that could make demons speak, the purple-eyed girl looked at the cat standing on Xia De's shoulder and bathing in the moonlight with a smile.
Mia looked up, her pink little nose facing the sky, and her amber eyes looking at the moon. Under the moonlight, this cat was quite divine.
"Your cat is very abnormal."
The two turned at the flower bed and walked through the flower bushes along the path.
"Last time, it was definitely not me who let it change back from a doll to a cat while I was in a coma. It is very likely that it absorbed a trace of... my power."
Xia De reached out and touched Mia's head, and the cat immediately made a very soft sound:
"However, this time it was thanks to it, thanks to it crawling into the box without knowing when. Miss Galina helped me check it, and this cat is still normal at present."
As he spoke, he saw the 【Transformation Ring】 and 【Fish-Training Ring】 strung on the cat's tail again:
"Mia is '2nd level' now, and I am 3rd level."
Xia De joked.
"3rd level in two and a half months."
She sighed softly, and then listened to Xia De mention the Witch Council. Hesitating for a while, he didn't say that he was physically checked by Miss Galina.
"What knowledge did Miss Feilianna leave for you in the Witch Echo?"
She was very curious about this, and Xia De shook his head:
"Some basic knowledge. The time point where Miss Feilianna is, is not long after she established Saint Byrons. She gave me some basic knowledge of Ring Mages, I think this can make up for my foundation."
He reached the 3rd level, but it was impossible to apply for the third year to the Academy. Because there was no exam week in autumn.
"However, the biggest gain this time, besides killing the second Chosen One, is this."
Seeing that there was no one around, Xia De took out the Luo De card deck under the moonlight, and then took out 【Origin - Darkness】.
"Can you control 【Origin - Darkness】 like controlling 【Origin - Balance】?"
Luweiya asked suspiciously.
"I can't, at least not for now. But look at this."
Xia De pointed to the card face, Luweiya looked at it for a long time before finding that this card was particularly... textured.
It was different from all other Luo De cards, and even different from 【Origin - Balance】 and 【Origin - Silver Moon】. The card face was more three-dimensional, as if it really contained a whole scene inside.
"What's going on?"
Luweiya asked.
"This was discovered when I returned to the manor, it should be related to killing Dac Nisi. However, the other me has already captured the information, and I probably guessed what this is."
Xia De took out his pocket watch from his pocket and took out 【Youth-Preserving Ye Zi】.
He had two leaves when he entered the 【Darkness Domain】, and later completed the key task and got two more. One was consumed by Yin Yi Yi Lu Na, one was in Luweiya's hand, and the one with 【Breath of Time】 was just returned by Difa.
"You just did this kind of thing to me, and said you would give me a very precious relic, which would make me think we are doing some illegal transaction."
This was what the black-haired maid said when she was tying the buttons. She insisted that Xia De take back the leaves.
So, Xia De now had two leaves, and the one in his hand at this moment was the leaf containing the knowledge 【A Piece of Real Information - Dark Dungeon】.
Looking up at the starry sky, Xia De placed the emerald green leaf in front of his eyes. ===== CHAPTER 539 =====
