Chapter 3334 Name and Butterfly (please vote for additional votes)
Mr. Sargent went to the city this morning and had tried to help Xiade contact his friend Mr. Mortis, but unfortunately the other party was not at home. So the potion merchant just left him a letter and told Xiade until Mr. Mortis had a reply.
However, the church's feedback was quite fast. At four o'clock in the afternoon, the witch's followers brought back the feedback from the church. The church agreed to participate in tomorrow's action. They did not question the details of the action raised by Shade, and even gave a list of members who would participate in the action tomorrow.
This time the opponent is an angel-level relics and ancient evil spirits, and the latter is likely to have other dangerous things in his hands, so the thirteen-ring [Sun Emblem] lady will of course join the action. In addition to her, the professional "Demon Elimination Squad" assigned by the Dawn Church and the Sun Church from the Holy See have totaled 21 people, plus three high-ring warlocks who are familiar with the local situation, and the two high-ring fortune tellers supported by the Prophets Association of Lomari City, a total of 27 people participated in the action.
This team will be fully prepared to deal with the magic sword and the demon. Although the "Demon Elimination Team" does not have a complete heritage of demon hunters like the doctor, they have many weapons from ancient hunters collected by the Five Gods Church and also understand some of the knowledge of ancient hunters.
Moreover, these 27 people are only official members of this operation. Tomorrow, there will be a large number of reserve teams on the island as support support. The church hopes to take advantage of this opportunity to wipe out the demons in one fell swoop. Even if the demons cannot be completely eliminated, try to seriously injure them.
As for the negotiations in Shilun City, the church believes that there is no need to let ordinary people withdraw for the time being. After all, the demon has already confirmed his identity this time, and his ability to corrupt humans is not very strong.
However, because the Five Gods Church wants to deal with failures in action, I hope that the start of the action tomorrow will be in the afternoon. Emilia has no objection to this point. After all, she will have classes in the third and fourth sessions tomorrow morning and she will not be able to pass.
"You have to attend classes tomorrow?"
Miss Larson, who was feeding the unicorn apple, asked the elf in surprise. She found that Ellie prefers to eat red apples than green apples. The pointed-eared elf nodded for granted:
"Tomorrow's morning's course is a compulsory course in our Chemistry School, "Analytical Potions". Even if you take leave, you will have to deduct regular points."
Last year, she traveled through time and went to so many places, and finally had to take the year-end exam honestly, so Emilia thought that she could not delay her courses for the "small things" like the devil.
The white-haired girl showed a pity, probably thinking that Emilia was pitiful.
But Xia De spoke at this time:
"Emelia, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. Don't worry about the course. I'll ask my teacher to arrange the course adjustments, and the professor will understand."
Miss Denist said, and Emilia did go to do a serious business, and the School of Chemistry would not refuse, so Emilia nodded with a smile.
Miss Reinhardt glanced at Shade:
"Is your teacher so powerful? Also, the church has really agreed to your plan so hasty without knowing the specific time and location of the action? Are they so confident in you, a mysterious person?"
Xia De did not answer. The church probably guessed that the "God Caller" that night might appear, but there was no evidence. The "God Caller" has records of fighting with demons in many places, and the Five Gods Church is quite clear about this.
So the cooperation at this time is just tacit, and of course it may be that they know the general direction of the action through the prophets:
"It's probably because the church speculated that I was the candidate for the election. Look, on the island where major events are about to happen, suddenly a sudden emerged, but no one knew anyone, but it was very powerful. It's normal for the church to think so."
"Although you make sense, with my understanding of the church, it is still hard to believe that they will do this. Is it really a matter of the chosen incident that the church will take a different way of action than before?"
After saying that, she glanced at Emilia again, and then said to Shade:
"You called me Claire last night, why did you change back today?"
But Emilia was talking to Miss Larson about why the unicorn Ellie "loved Apple deeply" and didn't care about this conversation at all. In fact, it didn't matter even if she heard it. Xia De directly called her name a long time ago.
"So Claire, can I call you that?"
A layer of red glow appeared on the face of the platinum-haired girl:
"You just changed your name?"
"Then you call Miss Reinhart?"
The witch didn't know how to answer it, but when she thought of the strange attitudes of Vanessa, Sylvia and Flora, she thought it was nothing wrong to take the initiative. Although she didn't know what her colleagues were planning, the snacks were right in front of her and she had no reason to shrink her hands:
"I'll call me Miss Reinhardt for the time being. When we find the demon, we can change the name. I don't know your real name yet. This is not fair to me."
"Xiade."
Shade said, Claire Reinhardt blinked and didn't react for a moment:
"What?"
"I mean, my name is Shade."
"Shadow? This name sounds more like a fake than 'John'."
"No, this time it's true. My name is really Xia De. But I won't mention my last name for the time being."
Shade laughed, and Emilia immediately raised her hand:
"I prove that Xia De's real name is indeed Xia De!"
So she was actually listening to the conversation here, and Miss Reinhardt pretended to turn her head to see the unicorn instead of looking at him:
"Okay, Xia De, you can call my name Xia De directly this way after tomorrow's event is over. Xia De's name is so strange, and I feel like I've heard such a name somewhere so do you think you are a hidden shadow?"
It is normal for a strange name, after all, it was transliterated by the real name of a foreigner in his hometown:
"I didn't hide it on purpose. I always thought I was the shadow of the moon."
When she returned home with Emilia that night with her brand new snake shed, the elf was startled by the sisters Grace and Helen who appeared at home. She probably realized that her behavior was a bit rude, so she greeted the sisters quite politely, and then she did not ask to stay at Xiade's house and was sent back to the academy by him.
When Xia De came back, the two sisters in black and white dresses were sitting bored on the short sofa opposite each other, controlling the chess pieces on the chessboard in the air, while Xiaomia lay next to the chessboard and watched the chess pieces jumping around automatically. The firelight in the fireplace was very warm and reassuring, but it also made the cat's shadow project onto the chessboard.
"Emelia asked me to apologize to you, she said she was very rude just now."
Xia De hugged Helen, who had opened her arms to him, and then sat down with the girl. The cat was about to jump over, but when he saw the girl in black dress huddled in Xia De's arms, he angrily called Helen several times.
Helen smiled at the cat apologetically, and Mia then lay down with some dissatisfaction. It was sometimes very reasonable.
The small Grace opposite the coffee table held her side face with her right hand holding the sofa armrest, looking at her sister and Xia Deqin/re, while the black and white chess pieces on the chessboard were still jumping:
"It doesn't matter. The child is still very polite, so young, so immature, and so lively, but it seems that she does not feel conscious of her identity. As the chosen one, she actually has no reason to be afraid of us."
Shade smiled and sniffed the soap scent on Helen's hair, but this should not be the scent of soap scent, but their own:
"She is indeed too young than others, so we need to guide her. Sometimes I wonder, if Emilia would have grown faster without me?"
But Helen shook her head in Xia De's arms:
"Sir, girls would rather have a tall wall to protect themselves forever and keep themselves innocent than face the malice and jokes of life and destiny early. It is her luck to be protected by you. The word 'growth' is too cruel for most people. I always think that this is actually a word equivalent to 'forced, tribulations, crying, and parting'."
She is obviously shorter than Emilia, but Grace and Helen don’t have that kind of naive feeling. In this way, Xia De understands better why "growth" is considered bad by them:
"I am your wall now."
He promised the girls, and Helen chuckled:
"Sir, you are not just a wall, you are our cage, protecting us from all directions."
"This doesn't sound like a good thing."
Grace continued to play chess with her sister while laughing and answering:
"But we think this is indeed a language of praise. In this dangerous world, it is so lucky to have such a safe palm wrapping us up. So sir, when you and Emilia went upstairs just now, we heard you explain that there is a big plan tomorrow? Do you need Helen and I to show up?"
Xia De shook his head:
"The story of fate has begun, and I don't want to involve you for the time being."
"Worrying that we will fall back into the cage of fate?"
Helen guessed Xia De’s thoughts, and Xia De did not deny this:
"This is only part of the reason, and the other part is that the situation on the island is currently unknown. Luvia and I speculate that the selected ceremony is related to completing a play. I want to wait until I know the general content of the play clearly before you can show up."
He touched Helen's long, soft black hair:
"Of course, if I really encounter danger, I won't forget to ask you for help."
The two sisters were satisfied. They wanted to get along with Xia De more and play more with him, not just the idea of the witches.
