Chapter 185 Two People Left

Time flies by and it is now Sunday.

Aiwass is still at the Great Guardian's house, but he will return to school tomorrow morning or tonight.

I have read all the books I borrowed before. There is still one week until the next advancement ceremony.

He now wants to read some occult books on the path of devotion to make up for his professional level as a priest.

Although Yulia's body has recovered, Aiwass also has one less person to train with. But fortunately, he was able to brush up on his lighting proficiency at the Great Guardian's house in the past few days.

After Aiwass settled in, David and Emily's training suddenly increased in intensity.

Under the rapid attacks of their respective parents, their postures were truly embarrassing.

But precisely because of this, their strength has grown rapidly. After all, George and his griffon Philip are both at the fifth energy level, while his wife and her griffon are both at the fourth energy level.

In other words, David and Emily were beaten into mixed doubles by a fourth-level and fifth-level strongman respectively——

Although he was beaten badly, this kind of feeding move was something that ordinary people could only dream of but couldn't do.

Fortunately, their foundations of one person and one griffon are very solid, so they can quickly learn enough experience. Just two days is enough to last half a month.

It’s not that the Great Guardian can’t afford a priest.

The reason they don't train like this is because it's not necessary - if regular training is so painful, David and Emily will inevitably feel conflicted, and their efficiency will be reduced. Maybe he would also get angry at the priest who came to treat him.

David even skipped school, and he also skipped training that was more painful than studying. He didn't run away now, largely because he had a crush on Aiwass, so he didn't want to show his shortcomings in front of this gentle and knowledgeable brother.

Aiwass is a guest after all, and he will be leaving soon.

Because of this, the Great Guardian had an excuse to give David a surprise training—after all, Aiwass was going back to class on Monday, so it was a rare opportunity.

Of course David couldn't refuse. So even though he usually resists training, he still has to get his sword and gun and train for six hours a day.

Aiwass's treatment method also surprised the Great Guardian.

Many pastors who have graduated from seminary for two or three years do not have the skilled and stable healing ability of Aiwass. He even noticed that Aiwass could also treat with both hands - not only the problem of using unhandled treatment, but also being able to use one left and one right hand at the same time to treat David and Emily simultaneously.

——No wonder Meg wants to let Aiwass occupy a spot.

The Great Guardian thought.

This time the Theocracy was willing to teach humans advanced divine arts, but only nine places were given in total. There are three in the school, and six more are chosen among the bishops after graduation.

These six bishops' quotas are exactly occupied by six spiritual councillors. When Meg heard this, she asked for one for Aiwass. In fact, there are only two places left.

At that time, the Great Guardian also believed that this was because of the close relationship between Aiwass and Princess Isabel.

Only a few people know that Meg's favorite royal of this generation is Isabelle. Because she has a bold personality, she usually likes to act in a straightforward manner and does not like to fight with others. So many people thought she was supporting Prince Andrew.

But only when they, the fifth-level extraordinary beings, gather in private, will they know that Meg hates him.

——Because he is too arrogant.

Andrew's strength is strong.

He is in his early thirties this year and has already reached the fourth energy level with a complete soul. There is no impulse interference from other paths. It is estimated that at the age of thirty-five, he has a chance to enter the fifth level, and he can fail two or three times.

In addition, he also obtained a double degree in law and philosophy from Wangli University of Law. He had already started to interfere in politics as early as five or six years ago, and even formed his own "Andrew Club". There are many young talents recruited there - these are the connections he has made since college, and now they have become an indispensable backbone of Avalon.

He doesn't have any bad habits. He is neither lecherous nor drunken, and can even be called a strict self-discipline.

Moreover, Andrew has a straightforward personality, speaks directly, and has a tough attitude. He can also be said to be fair when dealing with disputes... Although he is somewhat accommodating to his relatives and not to others, he is generally the type that the Great Guardian likes very much.

But Meg didn't like him.

As for why, the old lady replied like this:

"Because he felt that he could inherit the throne even when he was far from the first heir. And even if the royal family suffered this level of curse, he had no idea of ​​getting married and having children to continue the bloodline... It was as if he believed that he would not It’s like being cursed. This kind of self-confidence is annoying.”

What she said was actually quite tactful.

To put it more clearly, Meg suspects that Andrew may be involved in the curse.

There is no evidence for this. But her instinct was to feel wary.

The opinions given by the intuition of advanced psychics are worthy of attention.

It is precisely because of this that the Great Justice and the Great Guardian will take a slight step back and not stand too close to Prince Andrew.

The old lady's mouth is very poisonous. Regarding Isabel, who was also not cursed, her evaluation was: "Because she is so useless that she is safe enough."

Because Avalon lacks high-level transcendents, they are still unsure of the source of the curse. They can't even be sure whether it is a curse or poison. The Round Table Hall is happy to see this, and obviously won't do anything to help the royal family - they are controlled by the oath of loyalty, and now there are fewer and fewer people who can control them, which is of course a good thing.

But at least one thing is certain, that is, this cruel killing of the royal family must come from the outside. Considering the border dispute, it is Star Antimony or Iris.

From the perspective of the Star Antimony and Iris people, Isabelle is the most suitable successor.

She herself is weak in character and willing to listen to opinions. At the same time, she is a student of Master Janis, at least Avalon will not collapse directly from the inside. In this way, the situation in Avalon can be stabilized, and it is easy to accept various trade agreements from Star Antimony and Iris.

But she is not yet on the authoritarian path, so the core bond of Avalon's power control will be broken.

And she lacks confidence and aggression. The most important thing is that she is kind enough - this means there is no need to worry that Avalon will actively invade others after it recovers.

The most powerful thing about the Griffin Corps is its mobility.

If it is a defensive battle, the threat of the Griffin is actually far less.

- This is also the reason why the Great Guardians never worry that the curse will lead to the extinction of the royal family.

Because if the royal family is extinct, Avalon will fall into chaos and warlord separatism - in the end, no matter who regains the throne, it is an uncontrollable variable. It is even entirely possible that the corrupt Avalon will shed its shell and be reborn from the ashes... and this is what they don't want to see.

At the same time, both Star Antimony and Iris are caught in civil strife.

They can't occupy Avalon either... that means sending a large number of officials away from home to manage the colony. And this may lead to new problems in the precarious balance of power, and may even cause the originally inferior forces to move directly to Avalon to avoid the war and then recover through bloodsucking.

If it were the previous Avalon, I'm afraid it would have participated in the war long ago.

But since Prince Lloyd, the status of the Avalon royal family has begun to weaken. Now two hundred years have passed, and Avalon's economy, mining and light industry have developed quite well. But on the other hand, the power of the knights has been weakening.

By their generation, there are only a handful of fifth-level extraordinary people who are clearly loyal to the royal family.

In the first two hundred years of Avalon's founding, this number has more than doubled. And at the peak, there were 28 people.

In this world where top strong people can directly influence the direction of war, the reduction in the number of strong people represents the weakening of national strength. The territory of the Church is less than one-sixth of Avalon, but there are at least more than 50 fifth-level strong people, and the world's strongest and only sixth-level extraordinary person.

Because of this, the Eternal Church has the confidence to remain neutral forever and actively mediate wars in other countries to maintain peace.

It is precisely because of the interference of the Church that the other party cannot launch an extinction war or an aggressive war of too high intensity. From the perspective of the forces that released the curse, their goal is to let the weakest heir control Avalon, a sharp sword that can be attacked but not defended.

——That is Isabel.

Therefore, as long as Isabel does not change her character, she will not be in trouble. Avalon will not be extinct.

This is also the reason why Janice is willing to accept her as a student. It is also the reason why Avalon has always remained silent about this.

Because the real heir is not Andrew at all - the only heir chosen by the queen is Isabel.

Because of this, the status of Aiwas, who is close to her, has also been promoted.

If Isabel succeeds to the queen, then this Moriarty will be the prince who assists her. Unlike Isabel, Aiwas looks smiling, but in fact he is cunning and has a lot of bad intentions in his heart, and he is good at playing with people's hearts.

Excluding the problem of being too fickle, he is the best candidate for the prince.

And Isabel is the queen's favorite child, and the only child who has inherited the queen's open-minded thinking. These old guys looked at Isabel as if they were looking at Princess Sophia in her teenage years.

The only difference was that Sophia was much more confident and naughty than Isabel.

Confidence can be cultivated, and ability can be entrusted to others. But personality and morality are difficult to change.

This is also the reason why the Great Guardian treated Aiwas very well and even took the initiative to introduce David to him; it is also the reason why no one doubted the excuse given by Aiwas.

It's not just because Aiwas is good enough, but because they have no choice.

Isabel likes him, what can they do?

At most, they ask Aiwas not to be too fickle...

"Your Excellency the Great Guardian..."

But at this moment, George's butler handed him a letter with an anxious look.

... What's wrong?

The Great Guardian said in his heart.

But he didn't say it out loud, just silently opened the envelope.

After he read it, his face changed slightly.

He immediately walked quickly to the yard and interrupted the sparring between Philip and Emily.

"Evans, something happened."

"...Is it something I need to know?"

Evans tilted his head in confusion.

"Indeed."

George replied briefly: "The royal curse that has not been activated for a long time has occurred again."

"……who?!"

Ai Huasan's expression suddenly changed and his voice became louder.

His heart tightened - could it be that after he changed history, something happened to Isabel? !

Fortunately, it was the other one who died——

"It's Prince Andrew."

The Great Guardian said: "But I still think you'd better go to the Palace of Silver and Tin."

"...Such a big thing has happened, is it appropriate for me to go now?"

Aiwass hesitated.

"You have to go."

The Great Guardian just shook his head: "Princess Isabel is very scared...but Her Majesty the Queen is very busy now."

Hearing this, Aiwass understood.

He was slightly relieved, nodded slightly, and stopped refusing.

"good."

He responded in a deep voice: "Leave it to me."

After thinking about it, I’d better finish writing before going to eat!
