Chapter 2300 Heart Curse
"Bella, you can slowly think about profound issues such as the world view here. Margaret, chat with our Earl here. It's my turn next."
Miss Benenice ordered, flipping her hair and standing up.
"Yes, teacher."
The satisfied princess said with a smile, and then the witch looking at the earth took Shade's hand and went to the dance floor again.
After Miss Benenice, Shade invited Miss Eliaser as agreed. When dancing with the graceful girl, they said nothing, but their eyes seemed to say everything.
Then there is Sirius, a young blonde girl who is very good at dancing; and finally there is Miss Sylvia, a black-haired witch who dances very unrestrainedly in the cheerful dance music.
When Shade took Miss Sylvia's hand and returned to the sofa, Miss Benanis was telling the countess and Miss Elisa about Green Lake:
"Meghan and Audrey were really crafty. They said they were two people, so when they took turns dancing with Shade, they had to dance twice.
Oh~ At that time, Carina also said to let them go, who made their mental state unstable. I think if people with mental problems can be tolerated, we might as well let lunatics run City Hall. "
Sirius smiled and said:
"Miss Edwards is now normal and nothing like this will happen again."
"I think they will still say that they are two people, just to take advantage. If they become one person again to take advantage, they will say that they are actually one person."
Miss Benenice did not agree with their views. Seeing that Shade and Miss Sylvia were back, the countess holding the wine glass asked him again:
"What they said before was not very clear. What method did you use to get Megan and Audrey back to normal? This simply directly rewrote their fate."
"It's a long and complicated story, and if you want to hear it, it's best to let them tell you themselves."
"Maybe it's the magic of love."
The blue-eyed girl said with a smile. When Shade looked at her, she said softly:
"The Earl and I have already agreed to move into Belindle Manor tonight, and then enter the Parliament to say hello to the current Speaker. I wonder if the current Speaker is easier to get along with than the emperors in the past."
"Miss Isabella is certainly easy to get along with."
Shade said in his heart, and Miss Belindel said what was in his heart for him:
"The Speaker is very easy to work with and she is the nicest lady I have ever met."
The ball would go on until very late, and soon Margaret got up and left with Miss Sylvia. She still had many things to deal with at this banquet. After dancing with Shad again, Miss Benanis and Sirius also got up and left. They wanted to meet their counterparts in the local literary and art circles.
The cultural industry in Yuewan City, which has developed industry and commerce, is also very developed. As an opera troupe from other places, they must talk to the local opera troupe before the performance. Even though Miss Benenice is an "old-timer" in the opera performance world, she still has to follow the rules. Fortunately, everyone respects her.
So only Shade, Miss Belindel and Miss Eleser were left here. The countess wanted to say a few more words to Shade, or ask Miss Eleser more questions. But it was obvious that she was not completely idle at this banquet, so she took the maids and left temporarily.
"Would you like to continue dancing? Or go for a walk outside?"
Shade proactively suggested, wanting to know more about the life of the girl in front of him over the years.
The blue-eyed girl thought about it reservedly, and finally chose to go for a walk in the garden.
I don't know if it was because there was a banquet held on the ship on the last night before the sinking of the "Brilliant Messenger", so she didn't seem to like this banquet very much.
Tonight, the night sky in Yuewan City was rarely clear. After coming from indoors to the outdoors, Xia De took a deep breath and looked at the moon with a smile:
"Last time you rescued Miss Belinder and I at sea, I was in a coma in the form of a cat. I didn't see what your ship looks like now. If you have a chance, take me to see your ship in the future. Bar."
The blue-eyed girl was about to nod in agreement, but suddenly closed her mouth again, and turned with Shade to look at the second-floor terrace of Margaret Manor.
Under their gaze, a man in black formal attire fell straight down from the terrace. But because the music in the room was very loud and there was no one at the window, no one noticed his fall and the dull sound.
"Why does something happen every time at the banquet? Is this also a curse?"
Shade complained and hurried over there, with Miss Elise following behind him.
If you fall from the height of the second floor, as long as you don't hit your head on the ground or something unlucky, you will generally not die. But the fallen man was holding his left chest, whimpering from his throat, and then stood like this in front of Shade and Miss Elise.
"False immortality."
Shade reached out and pressed his chest, and then frowned slightly, because he felt that there was a whisper element in the heart of the unconscious man that was rapidly fading.
That element only lasted a few seconds before being completely unnoticeable, but fortunately, the unconscious man was still successfully rescued by Shade.
Miss Eliaser's blue eyes shone slightly:
"Heart attack?"
"It seems so, but there are traces of the element. The Whispering element has completely disappeared now and does not continue to affect him."
Even without treatment, the man came out of his dying state on his own. Of course, the injuries he sustained from falling from a height were not healed yet.
Shade thought for a moment, turned his head and looked at his face, and then his expression became more solemn.
"You know him?"
The blue-eyed girl put her hands behind her back and asked with great interest. Shade nodded lightly:
"I have seen his picture in the information. This is Mr. Leonard Baldwin, director of the Bridge and Road Engineering Department of the Yuewan City Hall. In addition to engineers and architects, he is the government responsible for the construction of the Yuewan Bridge. The third person in charge of the department. He made a huge profit from the construction fees of Yuewan Bridge."
These are the information collected by "Gray Gloves". Shade read them as recreational materials, so he remembered this person's appearance.
"Corruption or bribery? So what are we going to do with this guy?"
Miss Elise asked again curiously. Shade stood up and wiped off the leaves stuck to his pants:
"He was drunk and accidentally fell from the terrace. He was frightened and fell into coma. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured. Now go back and tell Margaret to let Margaret handle it. This kind of thing happened at her banquet The problem is more or less a scandal."
As he said this, he wanted to stay here and let Miss Elise inform the princess in the mansion. But he suddenly covered his chest, and then looked to the left and right cautiously.
"Strange, my heart is actually tingling slightly."
[Curse, don’t worry, First Fire and Heart of Stone are completely resistant to its effects. 】
"What?"
The blue-eyed girl immediately looked around, but there was no one nearby, and they found nothing.
The fallen Mr. Baldwin was later properly placed, and the public would only claim that he was drunk and accidentally fell. But Shade's feeling that he was cursed alarmed the witches.
Miss Belindel even used "If something happens to you here, how will I explain to Miss Anat" as an excuse, after the banquet, together with Miss Benanis and Miss Sylvia, she used The witch's secret technique performed a complete "exorcism ceremony" for Shade at Margaret Manor.
But it turns out that although the curse was effective at the time, Shade's body was too strong and the "primordial fire" protected him from the malicious curse, so nothing happened to him.
"There's something weird about this."
The great witch of fate came to the conclusion that the whispering element that Shade felt was definitely not an illusion, but when she tried to trace the source of this curse, she found that she could not get any answers.
And that night, Miss Elise also returned to Belindel Manor with a group of people in accordance with the agreement with Shade. Agelina was not surprised that Shade had found a new girl to live here. The elf girl looked at the figure of the blue-eyed lady in awe:
"Humans are terrible. Not human? Dragonborn? Oh, that makes sense."
Because it would be very troublesome to explain the origin of Miss Elisa in detail, she calls herself the "Blue Dragon" dragon descendant. Emilia, who lives in St. Byrons all year round, has many such classmates, so she knows Just accepted it.
On the other hand, the little unicorn seemed a little afraid of Miss Elise. It probably felt how ancient that girl was. For a minor unicorn, it is not enough to deal with such a powerful ancient one. This made Shad curious about what he would do when he saw Grace and Helen, and then he began to self-examine his "bad intentions."
In the eyes of the little princess, the most interesting thing that night was probably the meeting between Tifa and Miss Elise.
At that time, Shade and Miss Belindel had just returned from Margaret Manor. Considering that Luvia, Dorothy and Lesia were preparing for exams recently and would not spend the night at home, Miss Carina would not stay at home these days. Busy with the things at hand, he even moved directly into Yodel Palace, with little Mia by his side. Finally, Shade agreed to Miss Belindel's invitation and spent the night at the manor tonight.
The maids from the North used unknown means to tidy up the guest room and prepare pajamas for Shade. Miss Matilda was a little angry about this. The good-tempered maid thought that these northern girls had taken her job.
