Chapter 53 Inner Desires

After Professor Garcia left, Shade continued to slump in the chair with his eyes closed After a few minutes, he quietly squinted his eyes and looked all around the silent living room, making sure that the other party had really left, and then he sat up straight.

He touched the sweat on his forehead, and under the light of the gas lamp, his face showed an expression of waking up from a big dream. Of course that look just now was faked, it seems that the deliberate performance is right. In the view of the professors of St. Byrons, even just seeing the dwelling place of God should not be easy.

He lowered his head and looked towards the water basin. Under the rays of light of the brass gas lamps on the living room wall, there was not a drop of water left. Only the dry elective parchment volume lay quietly inside, without any words behind it.

"What happened just now?"

He asked to his head as he took out the keys in his pocket. Sure enough, it was still the time key, but the surface of the key was covered with cracks.

"Why can the keys be reused? Why do I encounter the mission of the [Father of the Infinite Tree] when I travel through time and space for the first time? Why is that god called the Ancient God? The first three"

[Outlander, I am you, you don't know, and I don't know either. ]

The woman chuckled.

[All the differences that I have shown so far from the normal situation all come from your particularity. The knowledge of the Delarion language is the broken memory of the previous soul in my body; being able to perceive the relic at close range is the speciality of the soul of a foreigner. I am you, this is your special. You don't know, and neither do I. ]

The explanation she gave was exactly what Shade thought during the day.

Shade listened to the words in his ear, leaned back on the chair and looked at the ceiling:
"I was in this world and finally saw a god with my own eyes."

He sighed, and after his spirit was fully recovered, he thought of more things:
"Thirteen Ancient Gods, why have never heard such a statement? The father of the infinite tree, the founder of the Thirteen Zhang series Luo The German card, the last thirteen Demonness emperors of the Fifth Epoch, what is the coincidence? The number thirteen must have some special meaning. Everything comes from Ancient God?"

【Maybe you can Guess for yourself, I think you should already have an idea. ]

"Yes, but there is no proof for this idea"

with a sigh, wrapping up tonight's "adventure":

"This time, At least I haven't lost anything."

[You also gained the spell [False Immortality]. ]

"But I didn't complete the quest and got paid for Mystic Art and spirit rune."

[You have two more chances. ]

"I don't know what the power of the 'afterglow' of the gods said by that old god is."

[But at least you are still alive, and you have infinite probability . ]

Shade sat in the chair and laughed:
"Actually, I appreciate you being able to speak in my ear. Still not sure what you are, but someone is always there It also feels good to be around myself. Don't have to console me, I'm not that fragile. Now that I see an opportunity to gain strength, I won't let go of the afterglow of God. Maybe Augustus priest will have an opinion."

eyes looked towards The bedroom door with a gap opened slightly, and the orange cat Mia, who was tired from playing, squeezed sleepily out of the door gap, but it was obvious that the cat was not so narrow.

The big amber eyes looked towards Shade, and the short legs took a run and slammed into Shade's knees. After lying down, I didn't feel Shade touching it for a long time, so I slapped Shade's legs with my paws in dissatisfaction.

Shade reached out and stroked the soft fur on Mia's back, the orange-yellow fur was unusually soft and warm, like holding a small stove.

"Meow~"

It turned over on Shade's legs, kicked its four calves, exposing White's belly to Shade, tilting its head and using big eyes from below Looking at Shade, the outsider felt that he was completely free from the spiritual impact of the incident:

"Thank you too, Mia. Thank you for liking me so much."

He played with the orange cat with his hands, lifts the head looked towards the window covered by heavy fabric curtains:

“God.”

The stranger muttered to himself.

(Xia is running.)

The second day is the all around Thursday of the Sunshine Moon. When picking up newspapers, milk and goat milk in the morning, Shade really received from The letter from the "Taylor and Wanda Consolidated Mining Company" in the southern part of the kingdom was exactly the same manuscript page that allowed Shade to contact the Academy directly, exactly the same as the one from Dr. Schneider.

Shade hesitated for a while while eating breakfast with Mia. Although Professor Garcia said he could write the report on his behalf, Shade finally wrote another one himself, and then described his physical condition, and passed it to the Academy through the pages of the poem.

The Academy's reply was also very quick, it seemed that it was the reply written by Professor Garcia, and the cursive letters in handwriting were like continuous vines. He asked Shade to pay attention to recuperation, and the credits and other rewards for this investigator mission will be decided after the Academy Conference in the Historical Academy.

This kind of investigation incident that almost saw the gods raised the level of the [Time Key] in the fifth era-1068 to the angel level. Therefore, Shade guessed that if he really saw a god, he should be classified as level 0 of the unknowable level.

After dealing with these things, I whispered good morning to the woman in my head for the first time, and then I clipped the pages of the poem to the novel "Silver's Knight". Now the broken key was locked in the drawer of the bedroom desk by him. The spell [False Immortality] obtained yesterday can only be used in a state of serious injury. Shade is reluctant to injure himself or the cat to the point of being seriously injured, so it is temporarily unavailable.

But at least I got a new spell, and I knew the effect was unusual.

He still doesn't understand what happened last night, and intends to try to open a new [Time Key] after the historical Academy summarizes the incident to confirm whether last night was a special case .

Although I would love to get the quest rewards of the Fifth Epoch-1068, Mystic Art-Blade of Deranged Time and spirit rune [Echo], the old god [Innocent Creator] said that he must have at least "God" the power of the afterglow" to complete the mission.

So Shade won't waste the remaining two chances with the key in his hand until he understands what "afterglow" is.

"Could this be caused by the particularity of my soul? I don't think so much for now. Today's goal is the Prophet Association."

He was in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror. While finishing her clothes, Mia rolled and played on the bed behind her.

[Outlander, your soul is very special, and this is still a problem caused by your characteristics. I am you, no doubt about that. ]

said in a murmured voice, in a pleasant voice. It was the first time Shade heard the other person speak like this, and she seemed to be in a good mood, presumably because Shade said good morning to her.
