Chapter 2542 [Moment] and [Lucky Soy Milk]
Chapter 2541 [Moment] and [Lucky Soy Milk]
The battle with the evil god "Dragon Devourer" and the subsequent slashing of the God's Descent Ceremony by Iluna with her sword made Sister Devilin realize the violence of the First Fire, which was also one of the raw materials used by the ancient god-the Dragon of Radiance to create the "First Son".
Therefore, Sister Devilin finally gained a new power a month after the Battle of Moon Bay because of this realization, and Shade's fire series spells also became stronger, such as the fireballs he threw now can produce greater explosive power.
He regarded the nun's letter as an invitation and visited the sacrificial site on the top of the mountain in the following days. Sister Devilin did not talk to Shade too much about Miss Feliana. She was just guiding Shade to become stronger. When the two took a break in the middle of the training, Shade looked at the gray-haired nun with an eye mask sitting on the steps around the sacrificial site, and always felt that she still had a lot of things in her heart.
In short, the accident of the twin princes at the beginning of the harvest month seemed to be just a small episode in life. After that, even though Shade had been vigilant and inquired about the news through various channels, the abnormality of time did not appear again.
Therefore, when the harvest month entered the second half of the month, the autumn became stronger and the temperature became lower, Shade focused more on the study of the autumn semester and the life of Tobesk. Of course, occasionally he would use the news he learned from the newspaper to talk about some current affairs with the duke and the princess, but he just took it as fun.
The arrival of an autumn rain that lasted for three consecutive days completely dispelled the heat that was not much this summer. The flowers that Luvia kept on the windowsill at home gradually passed their flowering period, and Leisia was also busy preparing firewood for Shade to use in winter in advance.
"Lecia, do you know Creekwood? It's the current Vista City."
Talking about firewood, Shade suddenly asked this question, and the princess who was dating Shade at the opera house nodded:
"Of course I know, the City of Music, the City of Thousand Trees, do you want to use the firewood there? No problem, these woods are not subject to the export ban. Come on, don't resist me~"
Mia seems to be less and less willing to go out because of the recent cold weather, and Shade, who occasionally accepts some commissions, is still waiting for the most important news, that is, the answers to the questions raised by the gods.
As for the "Red Butterfly Day" that was supposed to be held at the beginning of the harvest month, it was delayed until the seventeenth Wednesday of this month because of the continuous experience of Lecia being very busy and Dorothy going out of town to attend the writers' gathering in the west of Delarion.
They all felt very guilty about this, so when the Yodel Palace finally held a formal banquet to celebrate the birth of the twin princes when the princes were about to be "half a month" and according to custom, Lecia and Dorothy invited Shade to read the handwritten "Summer Night Collection" in an ingenious way.
Although Shade still doesn't know what the prose collection is about, it doesn't prevent him from feeling the girls' fiery passion.
Because Resia often saw her mother Queen Diana feeding the two princes recently, she sneaked out of the banquet hall with Dorothy during the banquet to read the Summer Night Collection with Shade, and discussed this issue with him:
"Come, Shade, let me hold you, you try it too"
"Resia!"
"Oh, our knight blushed! Didn't you just hold Dorothy"
"Resia!"
This time it was the writer's protest.
In short, life seemed to be calm from now on, and even the girls who stayed overnight at No. 6 St. Teresa Square felt that Shade gradually adapted to such a slow-paced life.
But on the second day after the Red Butterfly Day, which was Thursday, the eighteenth day of the Harvest Moon, an accident visited Shade on time.
After yesterday's banquet, Resia, who was reluctant to leave Shade's arms, quietly followed Dorothy to leave the Yodel Palace and continued to spend their night at Shade's house.
Perhaps because the Red Butterfly Day dragged on for too long, the princess and the writer, who were too eager for warmth, accidentally lost control of themselves, and when they finally fell asleep, the sky outside the bedroom was already light.
In this case, they did not plan to have breakfast, so they planned to sleep in Shad's bedroom until noon. So although there were three people at home that morning, Shad and the cat had breakfast together in the end.
This was also the first time Shad made breakfast by himself in a long time. Fortunately, Mia did not mind Shad's cooking.
Because he received a letter from Old John during breakfast, after whispering goodbye to the sleeping girls, Shad went to the pawn shop with an umbrella early in the morning.
It is always rainy in Tobesk in autumn. Before entering the pawn shop, he carefully rubbed the soles of his shoes on the insoles.
"Good morning, detective, everything you want is available."
Early in the morning, the old man behind the counter was also very energetic:
"Coins, keys, and relics that increase luck have all arrived."
The punishment of not being able to use normal time keys for one and a half months will officially end tomorrow, so Shade does need the next time key. As for special coins and relics that increase luck, it is purely the result of long-term acquisitions.
[Time Key] Old John gave it directly to Shade. The price of this relic is relatively fixed, and he doesn't need to make a special introduction.
However, this coin is very interesting because it is related to time:
"During this period, we were collecting time-related anomalies. It happened that my old friend said that he had this in his hand, so I bought it. Detective, the price of this coin is not cheap, but I believe you will be interested."
He pushed a palm-sized rice bag to Shade. Lying in the brown rice was the coin. The diameter of the coin was about the same as a fingernail, but it was made of wood.
Shade had never seen a coin made of wood. After all, wood was too easily damaged compared to metal.
The coin is much thicker than ordinary metal coins. The surface of this coin has been carefully ground, polished and painted, so it shows a dark brown patina.
On one side of the coin, the ancient rune "1" is written in the center, surrounded and surrounded by dense tree branches; on the other side of the coin, there are three overlapping oval dials, large, medium and small. The centers are not overlapping, but The edges overlap, roughly showing a triangular distribution.
After getting permission, Shade took the coin in his hand and played with it carefully, and then discovered that it was quite light. There is a circle of runes engraved on the side of the coin in ancient Elvish language. Even without being "literate", Shade can easily translate them:
[This is a stolen second. 】
Old John introduced:
"Secretkeeper-level relic [instant], when a coin is thrown, time is paused for one second. However, by pausing time in this way, the person who tosses the coin cannot change the state of any entity or non-entity other than himself within this second. nature.
To put it simply, using this kind of relic to pause time cannot interfere with the outside world. But in terms of actual combat value, one second of dodging or moving forward can also play a decisive role.
In short, you have to understand that relics involving the power of time are always expensive, let alone such relics that suspend time. "
"What about the negative traits?"
Shade asked again, and Old John asked:
"Do you still remember the characteristics of the [Sands of Time], which is also a Keeper of Secrets class?"
"Of course, remember, it will slightly affect the time flow rate in the nearby area."
"Yes, and this coin is of the same level as the Sands of Time, just because the price to use it is a bit high, so it won't be used easily.
The first negative characteristic is that the user ages 5 years; the second negative characteristic is that it is not recommended for ring warlocks other than the [Time] spirit rune to use, otherwise there is a 37% chance of disappearing in place. According to research, this is because the coin is out of control and the time pause cannot be lifted. The user is eternally stagnant at that moment, so they no longer exist on the timeline after that moment. "
"Isn't the price a bit exaggerated?"
Although Shade has money, he will never spend it carelessly.
The old man behind the counter wagged his finger:
"Do you know the origin of this rare relic? Only in those time-disordered areas, because a large amount of 'time' is lost, can the concept be condensed into coins. And because the concept of this kind of item itself has been defined as a [relic], so they Only then will it become what it is in your hands.
Speaking of which, I'm curious. Didn't you find something like this in the Yodel Palace earlier this month? "
"Oh, Father John, please don't test me. I really don't know what happened at that time. Just 700 pounds. Anyway, you all say that I am completely hooked on Miss Carina. This can't be your bargaining strategy." Bar?"
"Don't talk nonsense, and your meeting with the duchess is not a rumor but a fact. Otherwise, why were you there when the royal family took a group photo? I saw the photo in the newspaper this morning. The royal family was there last night. When we took a group photo at Yoder Palace, half of the face on the left side was exposed. Do you dare to say it’s not you?”
Shade really couldn't explain this problem.
As for the item used to increase luck, it is the relic derivative [Lucky Soy Milk].
This derivative is produced from an angel-level relic called the [Golden Cow]. This special creature that can directly influence destiny is even rarer than the simple alien creature "Golden Sheep". Under different moon phases, [Golden Cow] can produce milk with different effects, including not only [Lucky Soy Milk], but also [Unlucky Soy Milk].
"I don't have any doubts about this relic derivative. I'm just curious, why is the milk produced by cows called 'soy milk'?"
Shade still maintained sufficient curiosity, and Father John explained:
“Because according to people who have tasted this milk, it just tastes like soy milk.
Remember that it needs to be kept refrigerated and is valid for three months. This [Lucky Soy Milk] was produced last Wednesday. It is best not to drink two servings of [Lucky Soy Milk] in a row within a year, so if someone offers you another serving, remember not to drink it randomly, otherwise your luck will turn over. "
