"The ceremony of the chosen one also requires oneself to understand the meaning of identity, that is, a deep understanding of [wisdom and knowledge], and an artifact with the power of the ancient gods."

She glanced at Shade:

"[Aiken'Aura's Arrow of Knowledge] meets the conditions."

"So, except for the insufficient quantity of wise man's pyroxene, we actually have enough conditions now to allow the chosen ones to complete the ceremony."

Shade said that he knew a lot about the "secrets of the world", such as the current Sixth Age, which is not the real meaning, and the fact that the power of the old gods was inherited from the ancient gods.

"Don't forget, the ceremony itself will allow all nearby mortals to receive a wisdom enlightenment. The Truth Society is most likely here for this, and we cannot relax."

Luvia squinted her eyes slightly and looked at the last two coins on the table:

"This time it was a little too smooth, which gave me an ominous premonition... While Shade is contacting the selected candidates, I will look for the second and third picks. Iluna

, over there at the church..."

"The church is currently negotiating with the Apna Library. I have already reported what Shade said about the library hiding information."

The seventeen-year-old girl said:

"The church believes that there is a high probability that the ceremony of the chosen ones will begin before the end of this year. This is the prophecy in the psalms - wisdom will come before the end of the year."

Iluna took half a day off today and had to return to Blackstone Security Company in the afternoon. So at 11 o'clock at noon, Shade went out early to order a meal at the restaurant on Silver Cross Avenue, and braved the snow to arrive at the restaurant at 11:30.

The waiters brought lunch for the three of them.

Of course, the cost of eating like this is quite high, especially the cost of delivery on snowy days. But the three of them haven't been together for a long time, and Shade doesn't care about this kind of expense.

Although he is short of money now, if he only meets daily expenses, he is still a rich man. In addition to his savings, he also has the 1,000 pounds that Princess Margaret promised to the "Grey Eagle" at Fort Midhill in the autumn.

Didn't go to collect it.

Shade planned to get it after the princess returned to Kasenlik to prevent himself from being involved in the Gray Eagle mission again. Last week's attack and explosion on the princess caused MI6 to still be looking for the person who sent him there.

The man with the note, Shade can't take any more risks.

After finishing lunch together, Iluna returned to the Blackstone Security Company, and Luvia returned to the Prophet's Association. Shade put away the dinner plate and notified the restaurant to pick it up. After that, he left the cat at home, who usually took a nap, and he was alone in the

We took a carriage in the snow to Dr. Schneider's clinic.

Iluna and Luvia walked the same road when they left Saint Teresa Square, walking in the snow. The young chosen one looked back at the direction of Shade's house, and finally asked the question she had been holding back all morning:

"Louvia, do you know the relationship between Shade and Princess Lesia Cavendish? I was in the concert hall last night...the relationship between that princess and Shade..."

The girl with purple eyes raised her eyebrows:

"I know, she is Shade's lover."

"Um?"

Iluna looked at Luvia in surprise. She knew that the relationship between Shade and Luvia was very unusual, so she couldn't believe that Luvia knew about Shade and the princess.

"Where do you think Shade's information comes from? In addition to the duchess, he sometimes needs the help of other secular forces. The princess is a student of Zarath Academy of Literature. Not only can it facilitate his activities in various places,

It’s also a good source of intelligence.”

Luvia looked at her, and the lady's short boots left clear footprints on the snow:

"The road to pursue the Thirteen Chosen Ones is difficult, and the price Shade paid is beyond your imagination."

The seventeen-year-old girl pursed her lips:

"Yes, among the three of us, he has given the most...his lover...that's right, only a person with the status of a princess is worthy of him."

This sentence immediately made Luvia unhappy. The female diviner said to the immature girl with a cold face:

"Oh, Iluna, don't think so. Lesia Cavendish is just a lover."

This sentence made Iluna happy. She took two steps forward quickly, then turned around and looked at Luvia:

"Shad, you, and I, we will definitely get to the end, right?"

Luvia smiled and nodded:

"Yes, this is what we agreed on."

Miss Chosen smiled, and her steps immediately became much more brisk. Her worries about the relationship between Shade and Lesia were completely dissipated because of these words:

"It's just a lover. A handsome gentleman of Shade's age, status, property, and ability... She is just a princess, and I am the chosen one. Since Luvia, who has a better relationship with Shade, has no objection,

Shade and I..."

His face was slightly red, he said this in his heart.

But Luvia felt a little sad inexplicably in her heart, not because of Shade's chaotic lover relationship, but because of the words "until the end".

She didn't understand, didn't understand where this sadness came from. She stopped, amidst the hustle and bustle of the Steam City, and looked up at the sky shrouded in gray mist and falling snow.

In the long past, it seemed that countless people had said such sentences to her.
