Whispering Poems.

Chapter 42 Twenty O'Clock

"The academy probably thinks the same way. After all, I haven't heard of any newly enrolled Correspondence Ring Warlock who can get the Secret Keeper-level [Relic] at once."

Dr. Schneider also agreed with Miss Luysha's opinion. When it comes to fate, Ring Warlock is quite cautious after all.

Just staring at the dice, Shade had a strong urge to take it out of the inlay.But fortunately, the dice were still in containment, and Shade completely resisted the temptation.

But he still put a finger on the die, wanting to feel its cold metal touch.

In my mind, the whispering female voice suddenly sounded:
[Although the path of destiny forks at your feet, if you have useful tools, you can choose the right path.From 1 to 20, and again from 20 to 1, you see your own strange fate in the rolling dice.Now is the time to flip the dice.]

"Are you sure you want me to roll the dice now?"

Xia De asked in surprise, and the whispers in his ears sounded:
[Outsiders, when you embark on this path of destiny, the right to choose is always in your hands.But sometimes, some reasonable attempts can make you understand your destiny more fully.Through my vision, I saw interesting things for you. Do you have the courage to challenge your luck? 】

Shade thought for a while, he was quite aware that his "other me" was peculiar.Although I don't know if this is the characteristic of a foreigner or if the other party has a problem, any behavior of the whispering voice so far is believable.Although he is full of worries and suspicions about this mysterious and eerie world, Shade is also willing to show some trust occasionally.

Before the doctor and others objected, he rolled the dice and let it fall to the coffee table.

The sound of the metal dice hitting the wooden coffee table shocked everyone present.But the dice quickly stabilized with the number "20" towards the top.Shade felt that he was not so surprised, he just heard the sweet laughter of the woman in his ear.

[Although you don't always believe it, I am you. 】

The four of them looked at the numbers on the dice and did not speak. It took a long time for the doctor to remind seriously:

"This time 20 is your [relic] and we have no right to interfere. But I must remind you, Shade, that people are not always so lucky. This impulse brings the gift of fate, but next time Not necessarily."

"Every gift that belongs to destiny has a price already marked. This time 20 will probably consume your luck for a long time. I have always believed in the 'law of conservation of luck.'"

Miss Writer also said, but the old priest Augustus pointed out that the conservation of luck is an unfounded superstition.

Shade accepts the admonitions, but he does not intend to explain his motives for doing so.The uniqueness of the woman's voice in his head is his secret, the characteristic of a foreigner.It's enough to know this, at least for now, he won't tell others about it.

The "good thing" of throwing 20 points is not yet observable, but according to the characteristics of the dice, Shade will know sooner or later, so he just has to wait.

After Xia De officially joined the academy, everything was done, the doctor opened the bottle of champagne to celebrate that the group finally had enough five people.

Xia De didn't like drinking very much, but since it was a celebration, he didn't refuse.When the doctor poured wine for everyone, he also curiously asked if these books were taken back by him and lost accidentally, whether it was a leak of the secrets of the academy, but the doctor let him not have to worry about this:
"First-year textbooks and materials are not valuable. It's not that this knowledge is not precious, it's just that you can get it from other channels, so even if you lose it, you only need to spend more gold pounds. Go to the academy and buy another set. Some books won't be encrypted until the second grade."

Now Xia De is more at ease. Doctors, writers, and priests all encouraged Xia De to study hard as people who have come here, and agreed that his main task now is to inscribe the first spiritual rune for himself.

"The course "Basis of Spiritual Rune Theory" will give a recommendation for engraving the first rune based on the talent of the ring warlock. What recommendation did the academy give you? Is it [Light]?"

"Yes."

Shade turned over the book in his hand and said.

"Usually, the academy recommends that the first spirit rune be engraved with the rune representing the element, because it will be simpler. You have [Silver Moon], and the compatibility with [Light] [Star] is quite good, and even Actively created the [Brightness Technique]. But [Stars] are too complicated for the first grade, and it really is [Light]."

The doctor laughed, then got up and took out a copy from the pile of books and handed it to Shade:

""Crazy Light Chaser", a crazy novel written by an unknown writer in the fifth era, has [enlightenment] because of civilization. This is a translated copy, and by reading it to try to inscribe [light], it is the most Appropriate means. Of course, very few people can directly obtain light, you can obtain any extended concept spirit rune, even if you are qualified.”

Before today's meeting, the doctor had already shared the news about the sage-level relic [God's Box] and the Quicksilver Blood Organization obtained by Xia De to the rest of the group by letter in advance, and they all agreed for this news, A fee of £1 was paid to Shad per person.

Instead of taking the four pounds, including Luvia Anat who was not in Tobesque City, Shard used the money to pay off part of the 10 pounds owed this month.The remaining 6 pounds will have to wait for a while, after all, he still needs gold pounds to support himself and Mia.

It is said that orange cats have a good appetite, and Shade needs to be prepared.

The doctor's efficiency is very high. Before the end of the meeting this morning, he told Shade another good news:

"I found information from the real estate agent that the house at Six St. Teresa Square, the entire three-storey house including the land is the property of the original Detective Sparrow Hamilton. Did he leave the text of the suicide note?"

"Leave it, locked it in the closet by me."

Shade was in a trance because of the good news, and some couldn't believe that he inherited the whole house.All the haze after coming to the age of steam seemed to dissipate because of this news, and he didn't know in his heart that he was so eager to have his own home.

Priest Augustus had a normal expression, and Miss Luisa looked at Shard in surprise:

"Mr. Hamilton, you have never been short of gold pounds in your life."

"but."

Xia De didn't get too happy, but looked at the doctor, and the doctor continued to tell the story with this conjunction. His expression was tangled, and he didn't know what tone to use:
"But don't get too excited. There's something wrong with that house. Six St. Teresa Square was bought for £300 by Sparrow Hamilton when he came to Tobesque two years ago."

"How can it be cheap? Not even a haunted house."

Miss Luyisa frowned and asked. Although 300 pounds is a lot, you must know that this is Tobesque City, the capital of the kingdom of Delarion, one of the two major human kingdoms in the material world. Rendezvous point, these are the titles here.

And No. [-] St. Teresa Square is a building complex that can see the "Yordle Palace" directly from the window, where the soil is worth more than gold.

Doctors have clinics, priests live in churches, and only female writers are now living alone in rented apartments in the Tobesque University district and are sensitive to housing prices.Not counting the land, just the whole house in the St. Teresa Square area, not to mention £300, even £[-] has no place to buy it.
