Whispering Verse

Chapter 3185 Carina and Flora

Hearing the footsteps coming up the stairs, Flora turned around with her hands behind her back and asked Shade who had just returned from going out. Shade, in turn, asked Carina:

"Didn't you tell Flora about the danger of this painting?"

"Just when I was about to say that, your cat ran downstairs."

The Duchess, who was sitting on the sofa looking like a hostess, answered.

"Danger? What danger?"

"It's not dangerous. After all, Shade has hung this painting on the wall for half a year without any problems. This painting depicts an unknowable relic. Yes, it's the one Shade and Emilia mentioned during the battle in the woods."

Flora jumped back immediately, but immediately took a step forward and looked at the painting again with envy:

"How advanced must the painter's painting skills be, and how strong must his mental power be to be able to leave a portrait of such a being?"

Therefore, Xia Decai believes that the danger level of artists in this world context is no less than that of historians and folklorists:

"Besides your work, my favorite painting at home is actually a portrait of me in the snow that someone in Randall Valley painted. You should take a look at that one."

Flora only brought Miss Bell and three followers this time. After all, she came to celebrate the festival, not to participate in the war. The followers can live in the Duke's manor connected by a portal, but the Great Witch of Death must live in Saint Teresa's Square:

"Before I came here, I heard from others that the unit price of this house in the Shade is higher than that of Earl Winslet's mansion."

Because the Earl's mansion in Willendel is not next to the Cold Spring Palace.

Based on the principle of "first come, first served", Flora has the right to choose one of the remaining rooms as her residence.

Before Shad came back, she did not discuss this issue with Carina - this would make the Duchess really become the "hostess" here, but after Shad came back, she immediately went to choose a room with great interest.

"I'll live in the master bedroom over here, and the side bedroom will be for Carina. Dorothy and Lesia will squeeze together and live in the master bedroom of room two. Ajelina will live in the side bedroom of room two next door with Emilia and Iluna. Luvia has a special divination room on the third floor above us. She lives in room one on the third floor. I think Bella will also live there after she comes."

Xia De introduced the current basic situation, and Flora immediately decided:

"Since someone is willing to squeeze in, then I will reluctantly stay in the side bedroom of this room with Karina."

The Duchess was very "considerate". She smiled and shook her head:

"Flora, you don't have to force it, because I don't want to share a room with anyone else."

“But I also want to live on the second floor.”

"Then you can live at number 7, Saint Teresa Square. The day after tomorrow, let Lesia and the others connect the corridors on each of the three floors. You will actually live on the second floor."

This idea sounds good, but Flora arrived here before everyone else, not to live in the house next door. She ran to see room 2 and even suggested that she could live in the living room, but was rejected by Shade:

"I can't entertain you like this."

The first floor was where the maids and witch followers lived, so Flora had to choose Room 2 on the third floor. This room was the only room in the entire St. Teresa Square No. 6 that had never been used.

Although Flora was reluctant at first, after seeing the night view of Tobesk from the third-floor window, she actually felt that living here was not bad.

Only the two witches and Shade attended the dinner at the Duke's manor that day. Luvia and Dorothy were busy with their own things before the end of the year, and the girls also had their own lives, especially Dorothy, who had both parents and many relatives in the local area. She was probably busier than everyone else before the end of the year.

After the sumptuous dinner, Carina wanted to invite Flora to the city to watch the opera, but Flora refused:

"Charlotte and I came here today by steam train. Train travel is very tiring. Let's go back and rest."

But after returning to No. 6 St. Teresa's Square, she did not rest immediately. After asking Miss Bell to help set up the drawing board, she began to paint an oil painting of the night scene of Tobysk at the window.

The location on the third floor was already quite high, and she chose an angle where she could see the Yodel Palace, and she was confident that she could produce a very good work.

"Aren't you going to Yodel Palace to meet Queen Diana tomorrow?"

Karina did not forget to remind her, but the artist waved her hand impatiently:

"I know that Queen Diana wants me to paint a portrait for her. It's a simple matter and there's no need to put too much effort into it. I'll go to Yodel Palace with you tomorrow. The only thing I'm looking forward to is whether the interior decoration of Yodel Palace is more tasteful than that of Cold Spring Palace."

Standing in the living room of Room 2 on the third floor, Carina shook her head at Shade. Shade wanted to tell her not to stay up late, but Flora, who was standing in front of the drawing board, remembered another very important thing:

"Shad, did Danister say when she would be here?"

She was even a little nervous when asking, but she didn't forget what she had done.

"I was wondering if I should wear diamond studs or ruby ​​earrings when I go to Yodel Palace tomorrow?"

The beautiful red-haired witch raised her eyebrows:

"Silver earrings, they match your hair color better."

"Yes, that makes perfect sense. So goodnight, Carina, and sweet dreams."

"Good night, Flora, don't stay up too late."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The relieved artist returned upstairs to concentrate on her creation, while Karina continued to read with a smile.

When midnight came soon after, Xia De, who was sleeping soundly in the master bedroom, was standing in the endless wilderness under the night sky and looking up at the moon in his dream, but the huge moon disk suddenly fell and hit him.

He was startled and woke up from his dream. Then he realized that there were two moons, one was not one, and they were very soft. Fortunately, they were not as big as the full moon in his dream.

"It seems that you completely trust me subconsciously, otherwise you wouldn't wake up when I got close to you."

The red-haired witch on top of him smiled and whispered in the darkness. She supported herself with both hands and looked down at Shade. Her long red hair fell down, almost making it difficult for Shade to see the moonlight outside the window:

"Good evening, Shad."

Xia De controlled his eyes not to look at the wonderful scenery below:

"It's not a good night. Just before going to bed, didn't you say you wouldn't come tonight?"

"Ha, that was a lie to Flora of course."

The Duchess's golden eyes curved with a smile:

"Flora has gone to sleep now, so time has come to my side. Do you feel excited? Flora is not far above our heads."

Xia De was very serious:

"I don't have that kind of weird habit."

The witch, whose pretty face was getting closer and closer to Shade, chuckled and said:

"So what if that's the case? You really didn't realize that I'm not actually Carina. I'm Carina transformed by Flora. Shade, is this the relationship between you and Carina?"

"What?"

Xia De was startled, but then he said:

"No, you can't fool me. Even if Flora's Transfiguration is superb, she can't hide it from me at such a close distance."

"So does that excite you?"

She kissed Shad, then smiled and reached out to unbutton Shad's pajamas.

The cat beside the pillow was disturbed, moved its tail away from its eyes, opened one eye to look at Shad, and then continued to curl up and fall asleep. And Jialina then successfully verified whether Shad would feel stimulated by this, and the conclusion was of course yes.

But Xia De clearly felt that she became more enthusiastic than before because of his jokes.

Tuesday was the penultimate day of 1854. Snow was falling outside the window early in the morning, and the Saint Teresa Square and the Silver Cross Avenue outside the window had completed all the decorations before the end of the year.

The festive atmosphere seemed to have completely filled every corner outside the window overnight, and being able to see two great witches at the same time at the breakfast table really helped to put people in a good mood for the day.

Flora excitedly talked to Carina about her trip to Yodel Palace at the table, and then she critically commented on the taste of the traditional breakfast in the North. She curiously asked about the breakfast specifications of Shade when he was alone at home, and then thought that Carina did not take good care of Shade, but the Duchess ignored this accusation.

The artist was very concerned and curious about every detail of Shad's life. Shad thought that curiosity was even more than concern. After breakfast, if Tifa hadn't stopped her, she would have even wanted to check if Shad's closet really only had black clothes, as Luvia had complained.

Of course, Tifa stopped her not because she was worried that Shade's privacy would be leaked, but because the expensive silk nightgown that Shade had torn into pieces last night was still in the closet and the maids had not had time to clean it up.
