Volume 2 Why the Sun Shines Chapter 99 Good Omen
Alice arrived here alone, and she didn't have the patience to wait for Solomon to go with her, and she couldn't expect Ludendale to reveal her 'Phoenix' identity in the royal city.
She needed to make sure Abel was safe first, and it was incredible that Duke Celtic had infiltrated the Imperial Academy.
Abel's appearance here directly confirmed his initial suspicions, but he also blamed the prank in the end, standing aside and muttering to himself, "I didn't expect them to be demon statues."
"It's okay, I'll take care of it."
Alice held up a hand, and the dream world opened up at her fingertips, swelling to protect the library.
While she opened the boundary, she didn't forget to blink and said, "Some people meet me for the first time, so let me, Alice Hepburn, show you what prophecy is first." β
The students couldn't help but be amazed by this strange color, which was a breathtaking color change, and a thousand people looked directly at the boundary and saw a thousand different scenes.
Maybe it's the pink baboon you dreamed of last night, or maybe it's sweeping the graves of the dead on a cold and rainy day.
What Margaret saw was herself praying at a grave, as if by the side of the church of Maria.
It seems to be the death prayer she and Abel did when they first went to Maria's Church, but when you look closely, she is alone in the empty cemetery.
She said to Abel in surprise, "Is this a prophecy, I don't seem to see it so wellβwhat do you see?" β
Abel was silent for a long time, and finally gently raised his upper and lower lips and smiled: "It's nothing." β
He said it lightly, but Margaret clearly saw a shining golden sun in Abel's eyes, and thought it was a good omen, so she quipped, "Are you afraid of irritating me?" At first glance, I saw something very good. β
Abel's smile began to carry a kind of bitterness, he couldn't be happy, he always felt that this seemingly good omen, there was an inexplicable sadness.
Sherlock complained, "I see the stars, and it's definitely not a good sign." Bruce next to him joked that it might just be Copperrell's reflection of the light.
Sherlock snorted, "Then what do you see?" β
Bruce laughed, "Rare, a lot of Kinryll, and eight women circling around me." β
Seeing the surrounding crowd begin to tell you what she saw, Alice nodded with satisfaction, slowly approached the crowd and said, "It's an honor to take this opportunity to meet with you, what you see is a sign, this thing is usually magical and always comes true." But you don't have to worry now, the premise of what I just said is that the signs will not be seen by the observer, and if they do, then there is a possibility of change. β
Then she tapped her right index finger in the air, and countless blue butterflies appeared in the library in an instant, and she was free to perform magic tricks, which showed that Alice was in a good mood now.
One of them slowly landed on Abel's palm, and he looked up and said to Alice, "It's wonderful, Aunt Alice, but how do we deal with the demon statue." β
Alice approached Abel, leaned very closely, and said lovingly: "Magic has its use, I said I would deal with it, why, don't you believe me?" β
With that, she snapped her fingers, and the current-like butterflies scattered in an instant, and they began to flutter in every part of the academy, and finally slowly attached themselves to the hidden demon stone statue.
Each sculpture is covered by dream butterflies, which makes them stand out in the dark.
In the library, Alice closed her eyes one last and clapped softly, and the butterflies revealed their poignant but hideous nature, sucking up every trace of the demonic statue's extraordinary power with their teeth and claws.
The statue was flocked and fed by butterflies, and gradually crumbled into dust as if it had weathered rapidly.
They wanted to wail, but they couldn't get their voices out.
She pulled out the chess pieces that Duke Celtic had placed in the academy at once, which made him angry somewhere on the other side: "Joker, it's this clown again!" β
At the same time, Alice's voice came from his head: "Old thing, meet again, this time it must be different from the ending last time." β
The Duke of Celtic said with a gloomy face: "Yes, very good! Eight years later, the bird's wings have hardened, but I don't mind breaking them again. β
After a pause, he continued: "If you have the ability, come to see me in person, in the royal city." β
Alice's laughter came out, and she left a sentence at the end: "Then I will see you then, don't run home crying again." β
The Goddess of Death would not have created another stand-in to affect reality so quickly, she knew that Celt had no backer for terror now, and if she had to kill this statue freak, then this period must be the most suitable.
As the butterflies feasted, the blue of their torsos darkened, and finally regrouped back into Alice's cuffs.
All the extraordinary power collected will be retained for the next mutation, after all, the threshold for advanced stage five is unimaginably high.
The students were opened a lot of eyes, and the imagination of Alice as a weird old aunt was changed, and the attitude of the person who was mostly ridiculed now became a lot more respectful.
Bruce took out the book he bought from the shop, and it turned out that the title, the best witch in the Western Continent, was really a bit level.
He said to himself, "Okay, it's a lot worse than I thought, and it looks quite young." β
When people first met Alice, they thought she was in her twenties and charismatic.
But after a closer look, you will find that she is an authentic Welshman, with an intermittent brain stupidity, quite greedy for money, and often pretending to be a young old woman who has lived for hundreds of years.
Alice sensed the academy again, and only after confirming that there were no fish that had slipped through the net did she put away the dream realm, Abel stepped forward and asked uneasily, "This is the end?" I don't think it's that simple. β
Alice said, "Of course it's not over, kid, on the contrary, it's just the beginning. The Duke of Celtic and I had a life-and-death game, and that's when the show began. β
The opening of the First World War in the City of Art was in Norman, but the end time was actually in the Royal City, which makes people feel that the world is unpredictable.
"He and I must decide to die or die, just as Elsa and you both want to break each other's extraordinary powers."
After Abel's doubts were solved, he turned to the prophecy: "My prophecy seems to be a good sign, but I always have a feeling that I am telling me loudly that it is actually a bad omen. β
Alice shook her head: "I said, remember, if you knew the prophecy scene, then it wouldn't have happened, why don't you believe you can change it." β
Then she talked about the Great Order again, but this time her attitude tended to be the opposite, as she realized that something seemed to have changed within the Golden Dawn.
Ludendale could communicate secretly with Francis, but why couldn't anyone else, and everything could have changed during his eight years of absence from the Shadow Meeting.
Alice suddenly realized that she was probably the only one who had always maintained her principle of silence.
"Abel, regarding the matter of inheriting your father's seat, I suddenly think it is better not to let you go through this troubled water."
"Why did you change your mind, don't you really want me to go, but since you say so, I have no opinion, follow your arrangement."
Alice looked much more relaxed when she received the reply, as if she had accomplished some task that had to be done.
When the rest was over, she stood up and opened another illusion door, and just as she was about to walk in, Abel asked her where she was going.
Alice smiled and replied, "Go find that old thing, hiding in the royal city, like a turtle with a shrunken head." β
"Who?"
"It's the maker of this group of statues, a freak."
Abel looked around when he heard this, and asked, "Then what about here, I thought you would stay here and guard." β
"What are you thinking, silly boy, aren't you here?"
Just when Abel said that it was not enough to have himself, Sherlock next to him was the first to agree: "Yes, there is Abel." You're here, Professor Alice will be reassured. β
"Yes, Sherlock knows so much, so we'll see you in a few days, Abel."
After saying that, Alice walked into the illusion door and didn't know where she went, leaving only the illusion that remained in place was still active.
Abel was stunned for a while before being dragged back into the crowd by Sherlock, and the oil lamps were once again arranged in the hall, and some people couldn't stand the toss of such a day and returned to the tent to sleep.
Bruce took out the cards again and pulled the two of them to play cards again: "It's going to be dawn anyway, and besides, you don't want to win those copper Ruill back?" β
Abel and Sherlock looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, but were moved.
It's just that this time Margaret also said that she wanted to join, and she couldn't go back to Professor William's lounge alone now, it was too dangerous.
Bruce reintroduced the rules, but it was not enough to explain them once, and after many careful teachings, Margaret put on a pretense of understanding.
"If the four of you play, it's divided into two parties, do you understand this time, Miss Margaret, don't say I bullied you for not understanding the rules."
Margaery looked pensive, and said intermittently, "Well, it should, almost, understood." Let's get started."
Eventually, Bruce was paired with Abel, and Sherlock was paired with Margaret.
The four of them first rotated their cards, Abel was the first to lose his cards and went out, Sherlock was still struggling, his cards were not big, and they were not small.
Looking at Margaret's sworn look, he asked, "Are you sure?" β
Margaret nodded hurriedly, and seeing this, he abandoned his worries and chose to keep up with the chips.
When it came to revealing the hole cards, Bruce threw out a Kinship Queen, and Sherlock looked at his Sun J and had to pin his hopes on Margaret.
But as a result, she confidently showed a moon 4 and said proudly, "Hmph, I won." β
Sherlock had never been so devastated: "I'm so stupid, really, how dare I believe you." And the rule is bigger than the size, not bigger than the small. β
Bruce laughed heartily and hugged Copper Real on the table: "Thank you Miss Margaret for the gift, no wonder you played a big name at the beginning, I thought you had all the killer moves in your hands, hahaha." β
Two hours later, when the sun rises and Margaret loses all the copper in her purse, Sherlock spreads her hands and says that the silly woman didn't understand the rules.
He suffered the same losses as Abel, so much so that he suspected that Bruce was out of the woods.
But Bruce offered to let them check, and Sherlock was not polite, first carefully counting the cards, then rummaging through his pockets, and finally sitting on the floor in chagrin and saying, "God is true." β
Bruce smiled: "No way, my luck today is unbeatable." β
Margaret on the other side was speechless with empty eyes, obviously she understood the rules when she was talking about them, but when the cards began, she found that she had completely lost her memory.
Finally, he said sadly: "Ah, this card game is so difficult, no wonder my family advised me not to touch this." β
Sherlock laughed dryly, turned his head to look at the ceiling, and reluctantly answered, "It's me, and I advise you, Miss Margaret, that you really don't touch the card game." β
At this time, the three of them suddenly realized that Abel had not intervened, turned their heads to look over, and found that he no longer knew when he had fallen asleep.
At the same time, he muttered about his dreams, and the word sun appeared many times.
