Chapter 283 The Ring and the Cat
I was interrogated many times when I went out of the city, and also when I entered the city. Not easy. At the same time, because the church was investigating every street in the whole city, the closest way home could not be taken, so the carriage made a big circle before taking Shade and the maid back to St. Derain Square.

The rays of light of the gas lamps illuminated the empty square. Now the sky has darkened, and only a group of pigeons are parked in the square, probably wondering why there is no one to feed today.

Miss Tifa Serveit didn't leave the carriage, and Shade went upstairs to get the fang.

The gas lampshade at home probably needs to be cleaned, and the lights on the stairs are a little dim, but to foreigners, it is the light of home.

After going upstairs, she saw that Miss Bayas had arrived:
"Oh, Shade! Good evening!"

She was sitting on the sofa Holding a teacup, he happily waved his hand to greet Shade, and there was a bottle of red wine on the coffee table in front of him. Shade wasn't awake when she left, so it was nice to see him safe and sound at this time.

"Good evening."

Shade was also very happy when he returned home, picked up the orange cat that ran over, and stood in front of the window with Miss Beas and looked down at the carriage Luvia said something about vampire's teeth, and then she took the relic, turned around and went downstairs with the cat in her arms.

Back in the carriage, the maid just glanced at the fangs that Shade had put in the paper bag, and put it aside, very assured of Shade's credibility.

Shade, anxious to go home, wanted to say goodbye, but was stopped by the maid again.

She brushed the broken hair from her ear and blinked, looking towards Shade:
"Mr. Hamilton, I want to take the place of Miss, thank you again."

"No thanks. What do you mean?"

Shade looked towards the black hair maid, not understanding the meaning of the abrupt words.

The latter is a bit sorry:
"These words, as a servant, I am not qualified to say. The council has been coveting the secrets of [Blood Spirit School], that vampire's corpse and this You probably can't think of the value of a fang. Miss is not doing well today, so I want to express my thanks to you. Mr. Hamilton, you are doing well."

"Don't thank me, Ser Miss Werther, Miss Galina and I have said before, we're a fair deal."

Shade said, smelling the maid again.

"Maybe it's not just a deal, Mr. Hamilton. After this incident, the lady will probably treat you as a close person. You have shown that value."

" Then I'm honored?"

He didn't know how to answer, so he could only say this.

The maid who was close at hand showed a gentle smile:

"Actually, I also admire people like you very much. It's so true. If I hadn't intended to follow Miss to become a Demoness, I'd probably want to give you a kiss right now. Mr. Hamilton, you're actually very rare."

"Really? That...you Do you want to say I'm a good person?"

Shade asked hesitantly, the maid hesitated and leaned forward, but finally retracted:
"Good people don't always live long , I don't want you to be a pure good person."

"Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person."

"Goodbye, Mr. Hamilton, then. Oh, don't forget This."

She handed Shade the old manuscript book "Delarion Ancient Fairy Tales", which Shade got from auction:
"This book has been in my hands these days. I have to admit, you have a good eye."

"Goodbye, Miss Servette. Actually, I've always been curious, what kind of perfume do you use? It smells really good."

Shade knew the question was rude, but asked it anyway, the black-haired maid was a little surprised, but soon after smiled:
"Can you smell it? Only very few people can smell it. The smell of this perfume is prepared by the young lady according to the ancient potion formula circulated in the parliament. Although it is a perfume, the process of making it is a potion."

"Does the potion have a name?"

p>

Shade was curious, and the maid hesitated before replying:

“The taste of Demoness.”

Even as a duchess, without any preparation , it is not possible to take out 1,200 pounds in cash at one time, after all, Miss Galina didn't expect Shade to take out Vampire's body in advance.

So, what Miss Galina gave Shade is a money order, which can be cashed directly at Delarion Kingdom Bank.

By the time Shade came back upstairs with the coquettish cat, the two ladies were also pleased with the big payout. The three people plan to share the 1,200 pounds, of course not evenly. Because it was Shade who defeated vampire, Shade took 500 pounds and the two ladies shared 350 pounds each. Shade went to the bank to withdraw the money. After discussing the matter about vampire fangs, they started to have dinner again. Because it is still during the martial law period, even if I have a large amount of money, I can't go out to eat.

Fortunately, the two girls who live alone can cook, and the three of them sat together to enjoy dinner. Of course, no one forgot the lovely cat Mia.

Their relationship is very special, not friends, not lovers for now. In the words of the purple-eyed fortune-teller, fate has linked the three together. Just like the adventurer squad in ancient stories, and like friends who have experienced magical adventures in fairy tales:
"Luvia, fortune-tellers really like to use fate."

Dining table Shade said that there were red wine glasses in front of the three of them, which Miss Bayas brought when she came back in the evening to celebrate the victory.

Warlock, the long brown-haired woman, raised her eyebrows at the name Shade used.

Miss Beas bravely rushed to the third floor last night. Although she had little influence on Evil God, her identity as a chosen one was exposed to the church.

During the daytime today, Miss Beas accepted the church's inquiries, and answered many questions about power awakening according to the ideas that Miss Anat had already devised. But just like Miss Galina's attitude, the chosen ones who have awakened are not important, the important thing is the chosen ones who have not awakened.

There are a total of thirteen selected people. No matter what the final door means, it is important to win over as many of the selected people as possible in one's own forces.

Therefore, in addition to the Supreme Sun Cult who gave Miss Beas full attention, other churches are more concerned about the way the chosen ones awaken.

Next, Miss Beas may go to the Supreme Sun Cult for a short time to meet the Holy See, but she will still stay in the Tobesque Diocese and continue her current life. After all, no matter how special the chosen one is, she is currently It's only the second ring warlock.
"The third ring. During the day, the church opened a batch of books to me, and then I was promoted."

Miss Bayas said with a smile, so As a result, the Shade of the second ring is still the one with the lowest level.

In addition to those books, according to Miss Beas, the Holy See has other incentives and training programs in preparation. As long as she doesn't die, she will definitely be able to advance to the 13th ring. Young girls have high investment value.

After dinner, the three returned to the living room and continued talking on the sofa.

The topic finally came to the white-robed god last night. Miss Beas asked the same question as Miss Anat:

"Shade, I only care about One thing, nothing else at all—are you human?"

"Definitely human."

Shade nodded affirmatively, and the young girl was relieved . Compared with the curious female fortune-teller, Miss Beas doesn't really care much. Knowing that Shade is human, and knowing that Mystery Locks and Summoning Gods are related to him is enough.

Of course, Shade still didn't tell anyone that God and the Holy One were actually him, that he wasn't just a vessel. The "time key" was used by him to explain everything about his true particularity, and he wouldn't tell anyone until the day he became a god.

"But anyway, Shade, you saved everyone."

Miss Bayas said, under the rays of light of the gas lamp in the living room, her smile was really bright nice.

"But no one will know what I've done."

He had a little regret about it, otherwise even if the whole city gave him a shilling, he would have been within several decades. There will be no shortage of money.

After discussing what happened last night, we finally came to the stage of dividing up the gains from the ruins. Those letters and books can be shared, but the relics are impossible to be cut open.

Six relics were harvested from the original ruins, but the Evil Eye was taken away by Evil God, leaving only five. Now that the fangs have been sold to Miss Galina, there are only four left.

"No, it's really five, look at this."

Shade took out the ring box, and the pebble rings in it were known to all ladies, but they all showed disgust The expression, they did not become men's hobby:
"This is why you went to the charity banquet before breaking into the ruins? Since the lady gave it to you, then you can keep it yourself."

Luvia guesses that Galina Cavendish is a Demonness, but Miss Beas doesn't know anything about it. She seemed a little worried, not about the source of the ring, but about Shade, so she kept saying:

"Shade, it's not as a last resort, but you must not use this casually. I don't I hope my companions will become men and women."

"Of course, I will sell it after a while when the limelight passes."

The ring of the ring The face is made of cobblestone, but the ring is still metal. Under the luster of the gas lamp, the metal ring seemed to be putting rays of light. This strange halo attracted the cat that was lying on the coffee table.

"Meow~"

Standing up and looking at Shade, under the gaze of the three, Mia flicked her tail and came to the ring. First, he lowered his head and sniffed, and after confirming that he couldn't eat it, he rolled his tail, and the ring was actually put on the tip of his tail.

“en?”

Shade was startled and wanted to hug it, but Mia easily avoided it.

“Meow~”

The orange cat swayed its tail and jumped to the sofa, it curled up like a cat ball, and let its tail sway in front of it. Looking at the tail with the ring on, and seeming interested, the cat found a new toy.

【Metamorphosis Ring】can be automatically adapted to different finger sizes, and it is also suitable to put on the cat's tail now. But since the cat is impossible to recite the incantation, there is no need to worry that the ring will work. It's just that you can't keep the ring with Mia for a long time. After all, the Whisper element of [Relic] will have an impact on intelligent life.

But it's okay to take it out occasionally for the cat to play with.

Grabbing Mia, Shade took the ring off its tail and put it back in the ring box.

"Does the relic [Metamorphosis Ring] have any effect on animals?"

Seeing this scene, Miss Beas asked softly to the fortune-teller beside him, who shook his head :

"There is no documentation on this, after all, this ring has never encountered an animal that can recite spells."

PS: I can finish this volume tomorrow.
