Steampunk: Sixth Era Epic

Chapter 762: 762 Dandelion Coin

After returning home from Saint Byrons, Shard informed Lecia that the “Sleeping Princess” could replace the Sleeping Spirit Rune. As a result, the blonde girl became much more lax in her lessons for the rest of the night.

After all, once Shard set off for the time of the Fifth Era, that Spirit Rune was almost certain to be obtained, and the course she had been attending for over a month seemed to have had no effect whatsoever.

Lecia didn’t hide her emotions, and Shard could tell, so he took the initiative to tell her the story of the Red Butterfly.

Shard had already told Dorothy this story, and Lecia had probably heard about it second-hand, but hearing it again directly from Shard, she could learn many more details.

“Shard, what do you think will be the end for me and Dorothy?”

She propped her face in one hand, gazing at the moon outside the study window. The gesture was very unladylike, but when done by the princess, it appeared so elegant.

“I don’t know, but it’ll certainly be better than the current state of Grace and Helen.”

“But I think their state isn’t too bad, at least they can see each other every 22 years, while Dorothy and I…”

“Don’t talk like that.”

Standing by the window, Shard propped his hands behind him on the windowsill, with the cat lying beside them:

“Next week, I’ll be able to see them again. You see, the alchemical item made from their story allows you and Dorothy to look at each other, and I believe the Red Butterfly’s true power should enable you to make further contact.”

“Is that so?”

Lecia somewhat disheartened, closed her eyes briefly, then shook her head after opening them:

“If possible, I would really like to meet them. The story of the Red Butterfly is truly sad…”

“Don’t be so pessimistic. After next week’s business in Milestone is over, I’ll have plenty of time to find a way to help you meet. That door next door would be perfect, pity that each use is so brief.”
