"what's on your mind?"
Miss Carina, who was sitting across the table in a gorgeous red dress, noticed that Shade was distracted, so she asked with a smile. The waiter from the restaurant came with a dining cart, but the maids did not allow them to approach the table. The maids were still the ones serving them, after all, witches hated men.
"I'm thinking some weird things."
Xia De said, besides the cat, there was also a box of eye shadow in an enamel oblate box. The abnormal eye effect caused by the blood of the Xinghai whale had long disappeared, and this time the eye shadow was not used to change the color of the eyes, but to make one's face look slightly different. People who are familiar with it can recognize it at a glance, but it is difficult for people who are not familiar with it to connect the two people together.
She knew that Shade would go on an adventure in Midhill Castle next, so she took out this "cosmetics" that only witches could use.
"Ms. Carina, do you know the original angel?"
Initially, the angel was called "Gakael" by "her", but this was spoken in that ancient unknown language, and Shad couldn't even transliterate it. The name itself contained power. This angel was related to the secrets of the August priest. Although Shad would not reveal the priest's secrets to others, he was very interested in this angel.
"The First Angel? That is, the first angel created by the ancient gods at the beginning of the world. It is also called the Angel of Death or the Angel of Death. I remember reading some information that in the early Sixth Era, there was an organization in Midhill Castle that believed in this angel, but I don't know now."
The witch asked curiously:
"Shad, did you encounter a force related to this original angel in that city? The Council's records show that this angel is extremely powerful."
"No, no, I just saw this name when I was looking up information about Midhill Castle recently."
Shade shook his head, knowing that the Witch Council didn't have much information, so he changed the subject:
"Want to see my new spell?"
He smiled and said to the black-haired maid:
"Please help me and ask the restaurant to send an empty wine bottle. It must have been filled with wine."
"Pour this out."
Miss Carina pointed to the bottle of wine that was being decanted at the foot of the table, and before Shad could object, Tifa actually poured the wine into the ice bucket.
"Um... ... "
Shade has always been against such wasteful behavior, but since Miss Carina is rich, he can't say much.
Taking the bottle of dark wine handed to him by Tifa, Shad held the bottom of the bottle with his right hand and the neck of the bottle with his left hand, and pointed it at the center of the table. The plate was probably filled with fruits for decoration.
There were apples, grapes, pears and two cherries in it... ...actually there were three of them just now, and the other one was fed to Mia by Shad.
With his left hand, he slightly rotated the bottleneck, and in front of Miss Carina's great interest and the surprised eyes of the surrounding maids, the fruits turned into bright red liquid and flew into the bottle.
This speed was very fast. When all the fruits disappeared, Xia De immediately took the cork and corked the bottle. He stood the bottle upright and shook it gently. Some blood-colored halos flashed on the bottle.
"alright."
Shade handed the bottle to Tifa, who uncorked it and poured some for Shade and Miss Carina. The red liquid looked crystal clear, without any impurities inside. When the liquid surface was still, it was more beautiful than any ruby.
“It smells good.”
The red-haired Duchess shook her wine glass, twitched her nose slightly, and then looked at Shade with a smile:
"Your winemaking skills are really great, but can you make wine with so many mixed fruits?"
“You can taste it.”
Shade ignored the cat who was scratching him and wanted to share some of the wine, and took a sip of the blood-red wine in the cup - the wine made by this ability could only be blood-red.
The taste of the mixed fruit wine was unexpectedly good, but Xia De was not a professional wine taster, so he couldn't say how good it was.
"Oh, this taste... It reminds me of the first-class wine from Château Rossel in 1752, and the bottle of Fleming's Centennial Cellar that I received at my 16-year-old coming-of-age ceremony."
Miss Carina was not stingy with her praise, which was something Shade could have expected. After all, the vampire god had "I have good taste" written all over his face.
Carina Cavendish gave Shade a rare sweet smile:
"Knight, where did this spell come from?"
"From the one who held the party."
The key itself was given by Miss Carina, so Shad did not hide it, but he did not explain it in too much detail. After all, the magic of this blood brew was too terrifying.
"You always surprise people. I think even if the witch emperors see you, they will not kill you easily. Instead, they will imprison you in a room deep in their palace."
She gently shook the glass, letting the wine, which was gradually turning a deep red, oscillate in it:
"This wine is really good, knight. In return for the good wine, I allow you to offer me a reasonable offer. Yes, anything."
Her golden eyes looked at Xia De with a smile, and Xia De thought for a moment:
"If it's convenient, please help me find another special blood. This is what's giving me the most headache lately."
"This request is really ridiculous."
She said this with some annoyance. Tifa, who was standing next to her, smiled faintly, and the maids around pretended not to hear.
Xia De held the wine glass in one hand and stroked the cat with the other, and said jokingly:
"I have thought about tasting this wine from your mouth, but our relationship doesn't seem to be at that stage yet, and it's unhygienic."
"Oh, really?"
The red-haired witch raised her eyebrows and handed the wine glass in her hand to Tifa.
The black-haired girl in a heavy maid's skirt bent down slightly and took the wine glass. The three maids walked to the side of Shade and stood in a row to block other possible sight lines.
Tifa stood up at the table, squinted her eyes, tilted her head back slightly, opened her red lips and took a sip, but there was no swallowing movement in her throat. A blush appeared on both sides of her cheeks, she held the cup, smiled at Shade, and then put the cup on the table.
Under the gaze of her master, Tifa walked towards Shad with the wine in her mouth, and came between Shad and the three maids who were blocking her view.
The red-haired witch looked at the two of them with a smile, and Tifa lowered her head to look at the sitting Shad. In her dark brown eyes, besides shyness, there was also a strange smile.
All in all, this dinner was quite interesting.
(Mi Mia is running...)
It wasn't until he got up on Tuesday morning and went downstairs in his slippers to get the newspaper that Shad realized he hadn't gotten a gift from God's gift box this week.
So, before breakfast, he moved the box from the basement to the second floor, and after washing his hands carefully, he carefully put his hands into the box.
As expected, the gifts this week were also ordinary items. But this time the gift was finally of some value. It was a brand new short dagger that looked very sharp, which was taken out of the scabbard by Shade.
The thick black rope is woven around the handle to prevent slipping, and the blade seems to have just been maintained, and you can even smell the smell of oil.
This is undoubtedly a sophisticated weapon that can really be used to hurt people. It is very practical for Shade, but as a gift for a "child", it seems a little inappropriate. But then Shade thought again, maybe in the eyes of the god, there will be children who like to exercise since childhood and like this kind of sophisticated weapon.
"This week's assignment is... to practice swinging this knife 100 times over three consecutive days?"
Shade used the napkin at hand to turn the very sharp knife into a toy and threw it on the table:
"It seems that the era when God made the gift box was really full of martial virtues."
Because Father Augustus had been rescued, Dorothy and Dr. Schneider did not come to No. 6 St. Teresa's Square again. But Luvia still needed to install her complex stargazing equipment on the third floor, which almost turned the purple-eyed girl into a mechanic. Fortunately, because of the overtime work during the "Big City Player 1853" period in the past few weeks, she was able to take a few days off recently, so she also had time to come to Shade.
I just have to go back to the association to work after lunch, but the distance between the two is not far.
Luvia came shortly after breakfast. After Shad asked her to take care of Mia, who didn't want to go to Midhill Castle with him to see the mountains, he handed her the new special currency, an upright coin, which he bought from the ring wizard black market in Midhill Castle.
