Chapter 929

When Xia De returned home that night, Princess Lei Qianya was still helping Xia De carefully check and read Professor Manning's letters. She found fun in it and even took notes. The academic discussion between the history professor and the folklore professor probably also helped Dorothy's detective story writing.

Of course, after Xia De went home, Princess Lei Qianya left the study. Her Highness the Princess held Xia De's hand and asked Xia De to show "things that fly and glow", but in the end, Xia De didn't go to the basement to take out the stone slab, but he did spend a very happy night.

Of course, it was in the bedroom.

When Xia De woke up in his own bed on Sunday morning, the girl with beautiful long golden hair was sleeping sweetly.

Xia De carefully climbed out of bed. After opening the bedroom door, he immediately saw two terrifying lights shining from the sofa in the living room in the dark, and then immediately realized that it was Mia's eyes glowing.

"Meow~"

It made a low cry, a cry that made people feel panicked, and also made Xia De at the bedroom door almost imagine the aggrieved expression this cat was showing in the dark at this moment.

Xia De walked to the sofa on tiptoe and picked up the cat in the dark. Little Mia rubbed against Xia De's chest, and when Xia De looked down at it, the cat was also looking up at Xia De.

The cat's head-raising action made this cat look even cuter. Sometimes Xia De even thought that little Mia should be the most beautiful cat in the world.

After washing and changing clothes, he went to the study to carefully roll up the written thesis and put it in a paper tube, then turned it into a toy and put it in his pocket.

Pulling open the drawer, he took out the time key with cracks on the surface:

"It's time to set off again."

He wanted to leave little Mia at home, after all, he was only leaving for three seconds, but this time the cat unusually pulled Xia De's sleeve with its claws. When Xia De looked at it, the cat also "Meow~"ed.

Although Xia De didn't understand cat language, he guessed that this cat also wanted to "go out" with Xia De.

"Hmm... alright, but you can't run around."

So Xia De found a towel and covered Mia, who was obediently squatting on the coffee table. After solemnly putting the cat toy into his pocket, he tiptoed to the door of the guest bedroom, fearing to wake up the girl who was sleeping:

"May the World Tree protect me in time."

He said in a low voice, and then thought with pleasure that his hoarse voice sounded like a snake hissing.

Click~

The time key turned, and the white fog door like silk made Xia De smile. He was already used to such adventures and liked such adventures. Stepping forward, he officially entered the white fog door, and "her" voice was always so charming:

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

【Message from the Ancient God "Father of Infinite Trees":】

【Spring, 5177 of the Fifth Era, Broken Islands, Lost Lake.】

【Event: The witch pursuing eternal beauty.】

【Duration: 30 minutes (2/3).】

【You have obtained additional information.】

【The figure of the Father of Infinite Trees continues to watch you.】

【The test given to you by the Ancient God of Time will continue.】

【Help mortals obtain the secret of eternal beauty from the mouth of the gods.】

【The Father of Infinite Trees will give you a reward: Ritual - Water of Moon Glow, Ritual - Fire of Sun.】

Without hesitation, he continued to step forward in the white fog, and the white fog curtain in front of him opened immediately. As the thick fog retreated to both sides of the field of vision like water, what was shown to Xia De was the large lake under the night and the thin fog lingering on the lake water.

The air smell in the deep forest near the lake is completely different from the warm and comfortable home, and the surrounding thin fog is a "sedative" with supernatural power. Long-term contact with the fog will make you feel abnormally exhausted until you suddenly fall down and sleep without waking up. Even witches and ring-sorcerers with resistance will lead to thinking stagnation and mental lethargy if they are in contact with this fog for a long time, so Xia De is still very worried about the health of Witch Emperor Miss Violet and her party:

"Fifth Era, Broken Islands, Lost Lake."

He recited the time and place in his heart, and his ears had already heard strange noises from the bushes behind him. Xia De was too lazy to guess what would happen if he stayed by the lake without moving. He bent down slightly and ran forward in small steps, then jumped fiercely onto the lake surface filled with thin fog:

"Oh!"

The extremely cold airflow rushed from the soles of his feet to his whole body. Even though he was prepared, Xia De still shivered from the cold. It's just that I don't know if it's an illusion, he felt that compared to the last time, the chill this time seemed not so unbearable.

"I adapted to this cold, or is it because I have divinity this time?"

Shivering, he ran forward in small steps for more than ten steps on the silent water surface covered with thin fog, and then lightly stood on tiptoe and jumped into the air:

"Red Butterfly Avatar!"

In the hazy fog, the red butterfly group flashing scarlet light seemed to dye that piece of fog red. The dancing butterflies tried their best to fly toward the Huxindao. At the same time, by the campfire at the edge of the Huxindao, Miss Schultz Theresa, a tenth-grade student of the Schluch Higher Medical Academy, kept a kneeling posture, with her hands on her legs.

She suddenly opened her eyes, fire shadows reflected in her eyes, and red butterflies were flapping their wings in the firelight.

Miss Theresa pushed her glasses and turned to say softly to the Great Witch holding a small book beside her:

"Aunt, he has appeared."

The ruler of Witton, the Great Witch of the Witch Council, Witch Emperor Miss Violet Marshall was drinking tea and reading a book at this time. Hearing Miss Theresa's words, she handed the teacup and book to the maids on the left and right, and then stood up holding the hand extended by the third maid. She waved her hand to let the maids go busy with their own affairs, and she walked to the lake, squinting her eyes and really saw red light flickering in the distance on the lake:

"Finally back."

The voice was a bit hoarse, and the mental state was also a bit bad. The rope flew out from behind her, flying toward that piece of blurry red light like a shot arrow. The rope only flew less than half the distance before falling toward the silent water surface in the fog, but Miss Theresa, who threw the rope, still felt that the rope had already tied something.

Three maids wearing black and white maid dresses cast spells with her, pulling the rope toward the shore with force. The rope contracted rapidly, and after the pitch-black chain at the end also appeared, the witches were attracted by the runes on the chain almost at the same time. After Miss Violet coughed, she suddenly came to her senses, looking at the man wearing a black coat, who was "pulled" up from the lake by them.

Miss Schultz Theresa, wearing glasses, had the illusion that she was "fishing", but fishing couldn't fish up a man.

"Long time no see, Miss Violet, long time no see, Miss Theresa! Long time no see, ladies!"

Because Xia De didn't know the specific names of the six maid ladies, he greeted them uniformly as "ladies". They either lowered their heads to avoid Xia De, or turned their heads with a smile and ignored him, or looked here with a smile.

Miss Violet patted Xia De on the shoulder, and while feeling that penetrating chill, said with a smile:

"Long time no see. Alright, don't charm my maids anymore. You left in a hurry last time, and there are still many things that haven't been explained clearly. Fortunately, you appeared again as expected."

Saying this, she pointed to the vigorously burning campfire, so Xia De walked over with Miss Violet. Afterward, Witch Emperor, Xia De, and Miss Theresa sat by the campfire together. Xia De first reached out to roast the fire to warm himself up, then reached into the inner pocket of his coat and found Mia's toy.

Covering the toy with a small handkerchief, after the handkerchief was picked up, little Mia also appeared on the shore of the Huxindao of the Lost Lake.

"Meow~"

Arriving in a strange environment, this cat habitually first intimidated the surroundings, then rubbed against Xia De's chest, and finally jumped onto his lap and lay down, looking at the fire in front of him with big eyes.

"Your pet?"

Miss Violet looked at the cat, and the firelight illuminated the faces of the three:

"Looks very special."

"No, it can't be considered my pet, at least not now... how is it special?"

Xia De's eyes became sharp.

【You're doing it again.】

"Very cute."

In the light of the campfire, the orange part of the fur on Mia's back looked particularly bright. Miss Violet reached out to touch the cat, but was blocked by Mia extending its claws.

Witch Emperor looked at the small claw in surprise, and instead of being angry, she laughed:

"What an interesting cat. I also keep many pets in the palace, but I have to admit that even that kind of Boters curly-tailed three-tailed cat, where every gram of weight is more expensive than thirty times the weight of gold, none of them can compare to the beauty of this cat. How much gold did you buy it for?"

She was very interested.

"Oh, how can Mia's value be measured in gold?"

Xia De asked with his chest puffed out, but actually, he couldn't answer this question; he hadn't been able to buy the cat yet.

"Yes, gold is not omnipotent, sometimes you also need gems, diamonds, real estate, and precious relics and knowledge."

Miss Violet nodded in agreement:

"If I had met this cat earlier than you, I would be willing to exchange a count's territory for it."

"A count's territory? Your Majesty, a real princess couldn't get this cat from my hands with her own body. It is indeed cute, and not just in appearance, Mia has once..."

"Cough, cough."

Miss Theresa pushed her glasses. Seeing that both of them were looking at her, she reminded in a low voice:

"Your Majesty Violet, sir, I admit that this cat is very beautiful, but shouldn't we... talk about business first?"

"Meow~"

Taking advantage of Xia De not paying attention, the cat that woke up early opened its mouth wide and yawned. Its small head was placed on its front paws, quietly watching the jumping campfire. Its tail wagged, occasionally rubbing against Xia De's arm. This cat was in a very good mood now.
