At this time, Xia De had already put on the scarf, and he said with some embarrassment:

"I originally planned to give you the gift I gave you tomorrow... I have collected the 'Fire of the Sun' for half a month, and I think you will like it."

"Well, that's a nice gift."

Iluna nodded, and then the two fell into an eerie silence. Xia De felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, because he didn't know what to say next, and it was not very polite to get up and leave immediately.

From the corner of his eye, he saw that the gas lamp was very bright, and the laughter in his heart probably meant that "she" was mocking Xia De for not understanding the atmosphere.

[No, I just want to remind you, dear stranger, that in the weaving of the scarf and gloves, her own hair was mixed. 】

In the end, Iluna spoke first:

"Can I...can I have another end-of-year gift?"

"certainly."

Xia De nodded and saw that Iluna mustered up her courage and wanted to fight the Pantanal monster again:

"I...you...I..."

The two hands on the lap were almost twisted together, and it took a long time before he faltered and said:

"Can you...kiss me?"

"Of course, this is not actually a gift."

Iluna blushed and summoned up her courage:

"Not in a friendly way, but...in the way you kissed Luvia, and that pretty, pretty princess."

Xia De looked at her, which made the seventeen-year-old girl's face redder, but she still had a slender and smooth neck:

"I think with our relationship, that, no, no problem."

"Are you...are you reading that unhealthy book again?"

Xia De hesitated a little, and Iluna almost felt like she was going to turn into an ant and hide in the cracks of the floor tiles for a moment. But she still mustered up her courage, clumsily followed the book, bit her lower lip, lowered her head slightly, and looked at Xia De from the bottom up.

The girl's clumsy coquettishness and clumsy panic showed Xia De to feel a strange sense of guilt.

"Shad, I know exactly what I'm doing... like at the end of the Battle of the Pantanal, I kissed you too."

She blushed and finally said this sentence.

And "she" chuckled and whispered in Xia De's ear:

【What are you waiting for? 】

Xia De rummaged through his pocket, took out a petal and held it in the palm of his hand. With a gentle blow, the flowers all over the sky slowly fell from the ceiling to the ground, and because of the spell, it almost seemed to be floating in the air.

A red butterfly flew out from the sleeve, and the glowing transparent butterfly danced with the petals in the air. Xia De stood up, of course he understood what kind of feelings Iluna showed at the moment:

"Iluna, then, happy New Year's Eve, you have worked hard this year."

Iluna controlled her smile, feeling that her heart was about to jump out of her chest at the moment, she sat on the short sofa a little awkwardly, then stood up before Xia De, pinching her skirt Horn came to him:

"I told Luvia in advance, she agreed with you to kiss me, so there is no need to feel guilty..."

Because he was too shy and excited, he stumbled when he just stood up, and then fell directly towards Xia De:

"oh!"

"So, that's why your mouth was bruised?"

It was still the same night, at No. 6, Plaza Saint Teresa, Luvia smiled and listened to Xia De, who had just returned, talk about what happened just now. Xia De, who came out of the bathroom with the cat in his arms after washing, nodded, and talked with Luvia Walked into the bedroom together:

"Yes, she just fell and hit my mouth. You can't imagine how embarrassed Iluna's face was at that time."

"Then what?"

The purple-eyed girl squinted her eyes and continued to ask. Xia De sat on the side of the bed in embarrassment, and Luvia closed the door and the gas lamp:

"I hope she didn't bite your tongue when she kissed you after that."

"Of course not, the witches did it for me...I mean, I'm not that clumsy. But after the kiss, I left, otherwise how would I come back so soon? Iruna looks very Unaccustomed to kissing, she... seems to be fainting."

There was a faint smile on the corner of Luvia's mouth, she shook her finger, the curtains were opened, and the moonlight illuminated him sitting by the bed and her in front of the window.

The latter hugged Littleia, and put it in the closet under the orange cat's sullen expression.

"Little Iluna's courage is much greater than I thought. I thought she would not do anything in the end."

Then he added with a smile:

"If I had invited you to do this, you wouldn't be able to go home tonight."

"Are you mocking Iluna?"

"No, no, everyone loves innocent girls."

There is really a beautiful halo in the purple eyes, and there is a smile in the tone:

"How about this, to celebrate Iluna's boldness, tonight..."

She stood on the ground with one leg and knelt on the side of the window with the other, bending forward slightly:

"You can call me 'Iruna'."

"Don't make such a joke, I won't call any girl wrong."

Shad complained, and "she" pointed out:

[Outlander, this is a lie. You can't easily tell the soul of Rezia Cavendish from that of Dorothy Louisa. 】

He propped his hands back on the bed, and Luvia bent forward and kissed him, making Xia De unable to do justice for Iluna.

The shy girl has young feelings, but for foreigners, the age of seventeen is still a bit inappropriate after all.

(Mia is running...)

"Happy New Year's Eve!"

At the end of the year, Fort Midhill was also decorated with lights and festoons like Tobesk City. Mistletoe decorations were hung on the door of every house, and Cassandra Auction House was even more decorated, holding gifts Xia De, who came here, was amazed at the brass-colored mechanical tree that could spray hot steam in the hall on the first floor of the auction house. The old witch's apprentice, Miss Rita Swift with beautiful flaxen hair, walked away with a smile. come over:

"Xia De, happy New Year's Eve! Sister Devlin, the teacher, and the teachers of the two teachers are waiting for you."

She generously kissed Xia De's side face.

In the age of steam, the New Year's Eve in the traditional sense begins on the last day of the year and lasts for two days, which are theoretical holidays. And on such an important day, Xia De certainly will not forget the nun, Granny Cassandra, Miss Swift, Helen and Grace.

Especially the latter two, the Red Butterfly Twins were very happy with Xia De's arrival, and they each prepared holiday gifts for Xia De. Although Sister Devlin still maintained her usual calm expression, she seemed to have laughed several times today, and Granny Cassandra was also very happy to be able to celebrate the end of the New Year's Eve with excitement. This pair of very old witches very important.

Xia De had already received the nun's end-of-year gift on the shore of Lake Pantanal, and he would keep the picture of the nun taking off the blindfold and saying happy holidays to him in his memory forever.

And he gave Granny Cassandra a partial translation of "Secrets of Immortality" because he hadn't translated the whole content; he gave Miss Rita Swift a small bottle of "Moonlight Water", the young The Witch Apprentice stopped Shad on his way to the bathroom, and then kissed Shad passionately.

As for Helen and Grace, they are of great significance to Shad, so Shad agreed to find time after the year to go to Tobesk with them. This is the best gift for them.

Several people had lunch together at the Cassandra Auction House. Before lunch, Granny Cassandra talked with Shad and Sister Devlin about the Battle of the Pantanal. The old witch didn't ask too many things, but she seemed to know everything.

"Xia De, you have to pay attention to your own safety. In the council a few days ago, Galina also said that you are always so adventurous."

The kind old man shook his head with a smile, and recommended Shad to try the Cassen Rick-style foie gras on the table.

The gift that the old witch gave Xia De was three white stone crystals in a gift box. She knew that Xia De needed this very much. This mineral is not widely used, so if it is a temporary search, it is difficult to find it in a short time.

As for the gift Helen and Grace gave Shad, it was given when they bid farewell to Shad at noon that day.

"See you in a year then, sir."

Standing in front of Xia De was not fifteen or sixteen-year-old Helen and Grace, but Grace Helen after the "fusion" of the Red Butterfly twins. The appearance of the twins is almost the same, but at this time they have grown up a bit and become adult girls.

Wearing a long black dress with white patterns on his body, he stopped Xia De at the corner of the stairs on the second floor~lightnovelpub.net~ and the others left tacitly, leaving time for them to say goodbye.

"See you next year, and when my exam week is over, we'll go to Tobesk together."

Xia De said with a smile, the girl in front of her nodded immediately, then hugged Xia De and kissed him.

Seeing that Xia De did not resist, Miss Hongdie smiled even more. She pushed Xia De lightly, and then transformed into Grace and Helen again in a group of red butterflies.

"See you in a year."

Sister Grace White smiled and waved.

"See you in a year!"

The younger sister, Helen Black, was a little shy, which was different from her behavior when she pretended not to know Shad and brought Shad into the ghost village in the Sikar Mountain.

And when Xia De went downstairs to leave, he could still hear the twin sisters talking about the feeling of the kiss just now at the top of the stairs:

"It's really different from when we kissed..."

It was Grace's voice, and Helen said softly:

"Sister, next time, try three people kissing together, just like the fan lock on the top of Mount Xikale."

Xia De, who was walking up the stairs, staggered, suspecting that they told him on purpose.

【Their recovery speed is much faster than expected. 】

The reminder of "her" came from his ear, and Xia De nodded. But this also means that Helen and Grace don't have much time to live as "normal people".
