Shade really did stay in Tobesk that morning instead of wandering around. He first sorted through the books and materials he had acquired recently.
Seeing that maid had already helped deal with the many miscellaneous matters at the start of the month, he thought of washing the cat one more time before spring arrived.
But he then discovered that Blood Moon Return had a brief casting time—the time it took for the red vortex to form—so he simply could not catch the cat, which had understood his "bad intentions."
Tifa would be bringing people over to clean the house that afternoon, so there was no need for Shade to do the cleaning himself.
Thus, at ten in the morning, he took Little Mia to Dawn Church for worship. After seriously participating in the church activities, he had lunch at the church at noon as well.
Bishop Owen even joked that he had not seen Shade in several weeks and asked what he had been doing lately.
Shade answered like this:
"Other than handling a few unimportant little commissions, I've been renovating my house. Please don't tell anyone else about this. The Duke said my home was too small, so he helped me purchase 7 Saint Derain Square next door."
Bishop Owen showed an understanding expression, then thoughtfully offered some renovation advice.
After lunch, while riding in a carriage with Priest Augustus to the clinic in the eastern part of the city, Shade told the priest that he had already used that Angel Feather.
"That's good. I told you not to keep that feather in hand forever. It is not something that should exist in this era. Who did you use it on?"
As the carriage passed through Tobesk's streets and alleys, Shade told the old priest Little Beren's story.
