"Won't that lurking devil find out?"
Xia De asked again, and the doctor shook his head:
"Don't worry about that. Vision was the core power of the demon hunters in the dark age against demons. It has been tested by time and several wars. Of course, you also need to be very careful. Don't use it too often or continuously. Besides, if you keep staring into the void, others will wonder if you are crazy."
In the Third Age, when witchers who made countless sacrifices still existed, the "Circlewine" system did not exist yet. The rituals of learning magic on paper were transformed by witches of all generations and transferred to the Circlewine system. The ritual of learning sight magic is more like some kind of strange potion than a ritual. After the potion is prepared and dripped into the eyes, one can initially master this magic.
Most of the herbs in the potion recipe are relatively common, and a few cannot be found in Tobesk. The doctor also marked the locations where they can be collected. Shad only needs to make a trip to Coldwater Port, the cargo distribution center.
The most difficult thing to obtain is actually the "demon's blood". This is not a metaphor or symbol, but the real blood of the devil. The doctor's own blood is not enough, he just imprisoned a terrible existence with himself, he is still a human. But fortunately, the doctor had saved some blood samples of demons he had hunted in the past for research.
"In addition to the inheritance I gave you, part of the power of the Third Age Demon Hunter has been integrated into the modern ring warlock system. For example, the famous evil-breaking power has been integrated into many magics of the Church of the Sun. Even the Sunshine Greatsword has absorbed the power of evil-breaking power. If you are interested in this, you can learn a little bit, but in my opinion, with the Night's Watch in hand and such a bright moonlight, you don't need to learn additional power to fight against demons."
The doctor said as Shade looked at the list of materials:
"Times have changed. Evil spirits and demons were born in the Third Age. They continued to wreak havoc during the chaos and darkness of the Fourth Age. But by the Fifth Age, the clouds had dispersed, and the Witch Emperors had joined forces to seal off most of the dangers. Until the Sixth Age in which we live, all of this has become the dust of history."
The main feature of Shad's power is to fight against evil spirits, demons, evil objects and even relics. He cannot exert his strongest state against creatures in the non-evil camp.
"I understand. I will spend a day or two to learn this magic. Next week, I will find time to approach Stone Oxenfurt again. First, I will determine who the devil behind him is."
As Xia De was speaking, the doctor reminded him:
"We are only guessing that the devil signed a contract with Stone Oxenfurt, but it could also be Hela Oxenfurt. Don't ignore anyone around him. Similar plots often appear in stories. The guy who has always been ignored and has a weak presence is the real mastermind. Although the woman in your description is very weak, and she took the initiative to remind you to stay away from her husband, it is possible that she is deliberately letting you down your guard."
"Oh, doctor, you are really a professional."
"It's just that I've seen this kind of thing so many times. When dealing with the evil spirits of the Third Age, one can never be too cautious."
The doctor sighed, pouring a cup of tea for himself and Shade. Mia had already fallen asleep. It was nap time for the cat, and it was not interested in demons.
"One last reminder. Once you realize that you have been targeted by the demon, do not hesitate and go to the church immediately. If there is enough time, let me reach the Randall River Valley immediately. Although I may not be able to repel the demon, the demon will definitely not be willing to be exposed in front of me for a long time."
"Doctor, you don't have to worry about my safety. I have plenty of things to protect myself."
He took out the badge on his chest and shook it. The doctor dodged subconsciously:
"Just know it yourself... When I first met you that afternoon last summer across from the Lark Club, I really never thought that you would walk towards the path of a witcher step by step under my guidance."
"So fate is amazing, right?"
Xia De said, the doctor sighed and clinked his teacup with Xia De:
"I wish you a smooth journey. Remember to tell me as soon as you get any news. I'll also pack up and be ready to go at any time. By the way, winter is about to end. If there is time, I would also like to see the spring scenery of the rumored 'City of Spring'."
After the group meeting every Saturday, it is time for Shad to date with either Lecia or Dorothy. Unfortunately, Professor Louisa invited Dorothy to have dinner at her house this week, so the blonde writer could only go to St. Teresa's Square after dinner.
So after discussing the next action against the demons of Randall Valley with Dr. Schneider in the afternoon, Shad took Xiaomia to Coldwater Harbor to entrust the purchase of materials for learning the magic of sight magic.
Because of the winter ocean storm, the cargo ships at Coldwater Port were affected to a certain extent. One of the materials, "Blue Star Grass", was out of stock recently and could not be purchased until next week. Therefore, Shad was forced to take the cat to Midhill Castle again to seek help from Grandma Cassandra.
Unfortunately, that evening, the old witch took her apprentice, Miss Rita Swift, out to attend a local countess' birthday party, but fortunately, Grace and Helen were still at the auction house. The two sisters had privileges at the auction house and did not need to ask anyone to find some materials for Shade.
After preparing the materials that Shade needed, Grace and Helen asked Shade not to leave in a hurry:
"Is the Butterfly God's banquet over?"
"Yes."
After finishing the last Time Key last Sunday, Shad had not found the time to come to Midhill Castle, but Miss Tobernanis handed a note to Mother-in-law Cassandra.
"We have also recently recovered more memories of that god."
Helen in the black dress looked a little embarrassed:
"That god said that you think my sister and I are the most beautiful butterflies."
Although it was indeed Xia De who said this himself, he still felt a little embarrassed when the person involved said it again.
Grace held Shade's hand:
"More memories about that god also allow us to regain more power. Sir, please don't worry. This is not the power of the relic, but the power given to us by that god."
She took out the butterfly flute that Shade had placed in their hands to suppress the revival of the whispering element. This was a gift that Shade received after he sang at the feast of the Butterfly God, and it could enhance the power related to butterflies:
"This flute is very compatible with our powers. My sister and I plan to modify it so that it has the power to call upon us."
Seeing that Xia De was a little surprised, Grace smiled and said:
"My sister and I are also butterflies. The Butterfly God also acknowledges this. Since this flute can call other butterflies, why can't it call us?"
Of course, this idea is still in the preliminary planning stage. It is not enough to just have an idea to further transform the creation of God. But it is indeed feasible, but I don't know how long it will take to complete it.
Although Shad didn't want to involve Grace and Helen in his adventurous life, the Red Butterfly girls were determined to help Shad.
Nothing else happened on the rest of Saturday. Soon after returning home from Middlesbrough, Dorothy arrived. Tonight, Dorothy taught Shad in person. Before class, the two of them went to the opera and wandered around the streets at night. They were all looking forward to the Red Butterfly Day on Sunday.
Ajelina's birthday party was scheduled on Sunday night. Because she was favored by His Majesty the King, the party was allowed to be held in the side banquet hall of the Yodel Palace. It was usually used to hold private banquets related to the royal family, and Ajelina's birthday party this time was also of high standard.
Although the party was to be held in the evening, Shad did not leave Tobesk this Sunday because he had to prepare clothes and attend other matters related to the party. After getting up early in the morning, he and Dorothy hurried to the "Olfus Gold Shop" in the city to pick up the birthday gift prepared by the writer for Ajelina, which was a leaf-shaped bookmark made of gold sheets with hollowed-out patterns. Then he followed Dorothy to find her private hairdresser to trim his hair. Mrs. Mason even suggested that Shad trim his hair, but Shad had always had his short hair cut by Luvia to save trouble.
The busy work lasted until noon. Dorothy hurried home and had lunch with the cat, who didn't want to go out. Then Dorothy took a carriage back to her rented apartment and brought her evening dress as well as the matching hair accessories, shoes, hat and jewelry. Shad was a little free at this time, so he grabbed Little Mia and wanted to give her the first bath in 1854.
Pets are generally not allowed to attend birthday parties, which would be very impolite. But whether to wash the cat has nothing to do with whether to take the cat out. Since Shade has this idea, he will not let Mia escape easily.
The cat ran around the house, but it couldn't escape the "Imprisonment Aura" which had the ability to track the cat automatically. The "Imprisonment Aura" was not omnipotent, as many attacks could directly break the aura. As long as the cat hid for a long enough time, the automatic tracking aura would automatically disappear.
But at least Mia didn't have such ability at the moment. When Shade was walking towards the bathroom with the cat tied up on its four hooves, he was still thinking whether the automatic tracking ability of "Imprisonment Aura" could be transformed into some kind of attack-type magic. This idea was not complicated. After all, everyone recognized Shade's talent in the "Moonlight" series of magic.
