The nun eliminated all traces of the magic in the room, followed Shad out of the room, and then walked into the rain again side by side with Shad.
She was right next to Shad. Shad walked forward at least ten steps before he suddenly realized that Sister Defulin next to him was not holding an umbrella, but standing under the same umbrella with him.
He turned his head slightly, and found that Sister Defulin also turned her head. Behind the fine lines on the silver eye mask were the nun's special eyes. At this moment, he really felt that strong sense of being watched. So, Xia De said nothing, and walked into the night with the blind nun beside him in the rainy night illuminated by the dim street lights.
The night was dark, and the traces of the shattering in the night sky became clearer and clearer. March was covered by dark clouds, and today was really not a good day.
Although they were out collecting relics, Shade and the nun didn't spend too much time there. It was only nine o'clock when they pushed open the door and entered the Green Lake Hotel. It was past dinner time, so there were naturally no guests on the first floor, but Miss Carina and Luvia were both here, sitting at the table against the wall and talking to each other.
They all saw Shade and the nun coming together. The perceptive ladies easily saw that one of the umbrellas was dripping with rain, while the other had only a few drops of water. The two looked at each other, and saw the surprise in each other's eyes, but neither said anything.
After Sister Develyn said goodbye to Shade, she walked towards the stairs, while Shade walked towards Miss Carina and Luvia who were standing by the wall:
"It's so late, aren't you going to rest?"
"We are still discussing tomorrow's affairs."
The purple-eyed girl turned her gaze away from Sister Defulin's back:
"The situation this time is complicated. Although it can be simply summarized as 'rushing onto the island to kill and rescue people', there are too many details involved."
“Even though we know that the chances of using this hotel as a fortress to hold back those Edwardses are slim, we still have to try.”
The red-haired witch also said, looking at Shade lazily:
"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry. Tomorrow afternoon, we will let the few guests here leave. The servants and the cooks and helpers in the kitchen will also take a day off. Tomorrow afternoon, when we are the only ones left here, we can further reinforce the walls. Would you like some tea?"
She handed her teacup to Shade, who drank the tea:
"Thank you. You should also go and get some rest soon. There may be other things to do tomorrow."
"You too. Oh, Shad, Megan and Audrey are already waiting for you in your room. Your cat is at Dorothy's now, you can pick him up before you go to bed tonight."
Luvia reminded again, and Shade nodded, saying goodbye to the two and heading up the stairs as well.
When Shade's figure disappeared, Miss Carina asked the girl with purple eyes:
"Do you think... ... can Megan and Audrey succeed tonight?"
The female fortune teller showed a charming smile:
“I can guess the result even without flipping the coin.”
The Duchess also nodded slightly. They all knew Shade very well.
When Xia De walked into the room he rented, the witch with short light brown hair was already in the room.
She stood by the window, looking at the night rain outside, or perhaps at the night sky full of broken marks. She turned around and looked at Xia De only when he walked behind her.
Xia De originally wanted to talk about what he had just done with Sister Defulin as an opening statement for this conversation, but when he saw her slightly red eyes, he immediately closed his mouth.
Megan and Audrey didn't ask him to meet so late to hear him talk about the records of the collection of relics.
"Ever since I became a ring sorcerer and heard the family prophecy in my dream, I have known that this day would come sooner or later. I think I am ready. No matter what the result is, I will face it bravely."
There was a dark window behind her, and her tone did not sound worried or afraid:
"At least before I met you, I thought that when this day comes, I won't miss anything."
"Meghan, you..."
"Please listen to me."
She didn't give Xia De a chance to finish his words, but looked at him:
"Tomorrow will always come. Although I know everyone has made various plans for me, no one can really see the future. No one can tell whether I will be able to come back tomorrow night."
She pursed her lips and looked at Xia De, her eyes becoming a little more stubborn:
"I thought about this a few weeks ago, whether I really want to do this, and now I have figured it out. Let's treat tomorrow as the end of the world, I don't want to have any regrets. Tonight is your last chance, I have something to say to you, and something I want to do with you. Shad Suellen Hamilton, please look at me."
She took two steps towards Xia De and asked softly:
"Do you know what I mean?"
The stranger was no longer as stupid as he was before he met the girls, and naturally understood what the witch wanted to do on the rainy night.
Her hand reached down to hold Xia De's hand, then moved to the belt around her waist, but was held by Xia De's hand again.
She raised her head and looked at Xia De. The man had a serious expression on his face:
"If you are ready, if you want to do this, I am certainly honored to be chosen by you and Audrey. Yes, I have always known that this is my luck."
He suppressed words like "You still need to report to Luvia."
The girl bit her lip and nodded slightly:
"so... ... "
"But not now, because neither you nor I are sure why you made this decision."
He pulled the hand he was holding tightly to his chest and pressed it there so that Megan could feel the heartbeat in his chest:
"You can say I'm being pretentious, or you can say I'm pedantic and indecisive, but in my opinion, only when you are truly relaxed and have no psychological burden to make that decision, that decision will be good for you and for me."
"But if tomorrow..."
"There are no ifs. You are just going to attend the family dinner tomorrow and will be back soon. Even if your ancestors have the ability to call upon the gods, I will ensure your safety."
The sound of Xia De's heartbeat made Megan feel her heart tremble. She pursed her lips and looked at the man who made the promise. After a sigh in her heart, she suddenly asked:
"When Carina tempted you, did you refuse like this?"
"What?"
Megan clearly felt that Xia De's heartbeat was disordered, and it no longer had the feeling that shook her soul. She felt funny in her heart and moved her beautiful face closer to Xia De:
"I say, do you really think I can't see what's going on between you and Karina? Do you dare to swear on your cat that your relationship with her only stops before the last step?"
The witch, who was already quite familiar with Shade, asked again, her golden eyes were filled with a teasing smile, and Shade really couldn't lie in front of these eyes:
"I... ... "
So she grabbed Xia De's collar very impolitely, which could even be said to be a bit rude:
"Can you say that there has never been any hair of hers on the bed in your bedroom? Can you say that your big hands that hold mine have only touched her hair and cheeks? Can you say that your mouth that always speaks sweet words has only kissed her lips?"
Xia De believed that his face must have turned red at this moment. Although he had been in contact with so many girls, he still felt ashamed when asked such a question:
"Please don't ask such questions. We don't discuss these."
"When Carina first arrived in Green Lake City and saw you at the banquet, her eyes looked as if she wanted to eat you. Do you think Audrey and I can't see what kind of secrets you are hiding? Young detective, although my profession is different from yours, don't underestimate the observation skills of girls."
Her face got closer to him:
"You know, few people actively reject me. When I make a decision, I know it is the wisest choice."
Her nose even touched Shade's nose, and Shade had to hold his breath to prevent his breathing from getting disordered by the smell of her perfume.
The two looked at each other closely, and Megan felt Shad's heartbeat getting faster and faster. She got the answer she wanted, and she knew that the seemingly distant soul was actually by her side.
I quietly lamented in my heart that the plan didn't go smoothly, but at the same time I was happy that I didn't make a mistake in choosing the right person.
"Want to see my new skills?"
She blinked and said suddenly.
"What?"
Shad wondered, then Megan broke free of Shad's hand and gently pushed him, causing him to fall onto the sofa in the room.
She snapped her fingers, and the gas lamp went out immediately. The curtains closed automatically with a rustle. At this moment, a flash of white lightning suddenly broke through the rainy night sky outside the window. In the rumbling thunder, Shade clearly saw two white arms passing through Megan's armpits and hugging Megan's body. Then, Audrey's head and smooth neck appeared from behind Megan's right shoulder. It was as if Audrey was hugging Megan from behind.
Two identical pretty faces smiled at Xia De who was sitting on the sofa. Xia De, with his excellent dynamic vision, clearly saw that when the lightning illuminated her back just now, the shadow on the ground actually had two upper bodies.
This meant that the two sisters, who originally could only use their birthmarks to show two extra arms, could now finally have their own upper body.
He was surprised but delighted:
"How did they do this? How did they suddenly have such a big breakthrough?"
"Mother Cassandra's 'nieces', Miss Grace White and Miss Helen Blake, helped us. Their powers are very strange."
They spoke together, their voices not completely overlapping, like an echo. The red jade pendant on their chests flickered slightly in the darkness. The witches looked down at Shade who was lying half-up on the sofa, and their two pairs of golden eyes really glowed in the darkness of the room:
"We have a feeling that our true gesture will come when we appear together hand in hand. But it's fine to just leave it like this now. At least, we can all enjoy the joy that will follow."
The Philosopher's Stone can be used to make an elixir of life that contains the ability to reshape the body, which might be able to help them.
It was very inappropriate for her to speak at this time.
Xia De's eyes widened as he watched her, or rather them, getting closer and closer:
"Didn't we just agree that we won't..."
"If you don't do the last step, can't you do other things? Did you and Xiwei and the others just kiss?"
Megan in front asked with a smile. Audrey behind her hugged her sister, their faces close together, and she spoke softly:
"We bought the merchandise from Emma specifically because she wouldn't sell it to us."
Then, Xia De felt as if he was entangled by some extremely ferocious snake. Four hands clamped his body, and two heads with smiles finally blocked all his vision in the darkness:
"Shade, please treat this night as the last night before the end of the world."
