Chapter 219: Court Ritual Master Ibn

Now, Mycroft has solved the troubles he might encounter, Lily has obtained the equipment and inheritance of the new profession, and Aiwass has also obtained clues to continue the investigation and stronger helpers...

With this letter, he can be convicted in diplomatic occasions and gain more benefits for Avalon.

It can be said that everyone is happy with the ending.

The only pity is that the old man of the bone carving did not have a penny of the stolen money. Before, Aiwass told Mycroft on the road that if there were gold coins, jewelry or artworks here, they would share them equally-everyone who saw it would have a share.

This is also why Aiwas wanted to get closer to Mycroft.

But in the end, Mycroft just smiled and waved his hand, saying very confidently that "there will be no such thing."

Sure enough. Not to mention the stolen money, not even a dirty bag was left.

This is probably the artist's noble character and paranoia...

-Aiwas actually suspected that Mycroft might have roughly guessed what was inside before opening the safe.

He definitely didn't know what it was, because like Sherlock, he lacked too much information. But even so, he still guessed... it must be something very troublesome.

- As long as he touched that thing, whether he chose to hide it, destroy it or hand it over, once he was discovered, it might make him look not so clean.

Although the authoritarian path can detect lies, if the lie detector is so useful, then Minister Droste would never betray Avalon.

That's why he came to Aiwass specifically to help deal with this troublesome thing.

As a transcendent of the dusk path, Mycroft likes quietness very much, even close to stillness. He is very afraid of trouble.

In order not to cause trouble for himself, he will use his wisdom to solve things before they happen.

Because of this, although Sherlock has always firmly believed that Mycroft is much smarter than him... but Mycroft is not as famous as his brother Sherlock. Because he seems to deal with some trivial things that are not worth mentioning, and has never had the experience and results of dealing with major events and crises.

Sherlock has been helping the Inspectorate solve some complicated cases since he was very young, and he even has a close relationship with the Inspectorate. He became famous very early and became a well-known detective in Avalon. Even Xingti and Iris have his admirers, and occasionally write to him, recording some complicated cases in detail in the letter, and asking Sherlock to help reason and solve them.

But before Sherlock mentioned Mycroft to Aiwass, even Aiwass, who "roughly knew the future", didn't know him. His only advantage is that he never makes mistakes in his work, but there is nothing particularly eye-catching. No one hates him, and no one likes him much. He has no enemies and no friends.

Even Isabel and Meg and others don't think Mycroft is so smart, and they still come to Sherlock to solve problems when they have something to do...

Perhaps only Her Majesty, who has a discerning eye for people, can barely judge that this man with a low sense of existence is a rare talent.

Now as a minister without a department, Aiwass has begun to think about Avalon-for Isabel, who will succeed to the throne in the future. Since he knew that Mycroft was a rare smart man, he had to be used.

——The position of Lord Chamberlain was indeed very important, but it was a bit of a waste for Mycroft.

The position of Minister of Trade that Drost had just given up might be more suitable for him.

Aiwass temporarily wrote down his name and returned to the Palace of Silver and Tin with Lily.

There was no other way.

Sherlock's "parents" had come to pay Sherlock's rent in person, so it was not good for Aiwass to drive Sherlock back home. After all, Sherlock didn't like living in his own home, and Madam Mina did take good care of him.

Originally, Aiwas could have returned to Moriarty's mansion——Iris' assassin was also stripped clean, and Minister Drost, the traitor, was also solved by Aiwass.

At present, Aiwas's enemies were only the giants in the upper echelons of Noble Red. And the entire Noble Red was being chased by the air cavalry. Aiwass finally had some quiet time in Avalon.

However, Yulia seemed to be very happy living in the Temple of Silver and Tin.

On the one hand, she was learning alchemy from Master Nobel and progressed rapidly - she had not even completed the first advanced ceremony, but she had already mastered the synthesis of many bombs; on the other hand, her relationship with Isabel was gradually getting closer.

Aiwass didn't even need to ask, he knew that they were mostly using him to get closer... As we all know, among a few good friends, whoever is not present will become a topic of conversation.

Of course, it was not Isabel who asked Yulia about Aiwass. It should be the other way around.

Because Yulia had been in a weak state before, she might not know Aiwass as well as the well-informed Isabel - Janis liked to chat with her about gossip when she had nothing to do, and the camera spirit was amazingly efficient in this regard.

At Yulia's invitation, Aiwass simply lived in the Temple of Silver and Tin. The exam will be fine, and there is nothing to do at home... If he lives in the Palace of Silver and Tin, Aiwas can also learn some ritual experience from the court ritual master.

The old ritual master's name is "Iben", he is a ritual master from the ancient Parthian Empire.

His energy level is not high, only the third energy level, but he has mastered many rare and mysterious skills. And although he is a person who transcends the path, he is an old man with a very gentle personality.

He will embark on the path of transcendence in order to help the poor people in his hometown. He will be expelled because he offended a local rich man - or in the words of the ancient Parthian Empire, he should be called the "good master".

The real monarch of the ancient Parthian Empire, almost no one knows his face, and he almost never shows up.

In the unnatural desert located in the middle of the continent, which should have been a fertile plain, the cities are separated from each other. The manager of each city is called the "good master", some cities have only one, and some cities have more than one. These good masters are the actual rulers of the ancient Parthian Empire.

Good masters can raise and sell slaves. Only slaves sold by good masters are legal slaves, and other slaves are illegal.

The reason why they are called "good masters" is that only they have the right to use water sources. They could call out sufficient water in the desert, and their cities were built around these water sources.

If the good master died, the water source would dry up.

The Parthians believed that they could survive because the good masters gave them their water. Therefore, the rule of the good masters was very solid - daring to resist the good masters was equivalent to eliminating the right of everyone to survive.

Once the city was destroyed, people who drifted to other cities would become "untouchables". If they did not pay to redeem their freedom, the original free people would also be marked as slaves.

And these good masters who monopolized the slave resources not only had their own armies, but also countless wealth. The cities fought against each other, basically forming a separatist trend in the real sense.

This Ibn embarked on the road of transcendence in order to help people resist the good masters and save those slaves.

But they thought too simply. They were betrayed by the people they saved, and almost all of them were arrested and imprisoned. And Ibn was one of the few who escaped.

He fled to the Black Eagle Principality, which had not yet perished, but he felt it was not enough. So Ibn continued to head west, intending to cross Avalon to the Theocracy. As long as he reached the eternally neutral Theocracy, he would be able to survive.

As a result, when he traveled to the territory of Avalon, he met a group of local ritual masters.

"They call themselves the 'Scaleless Hand', which means 'people without armor'. They are a civilian transcendent organization established to resist the Hanged King Tudor III... When I saw them, it was like seeing myself back then. I couldn't bear it, so I planned to stay and help them."

Ibn sighed and said softly: "And their ending was indeed similar to mine.

"In the end, I was betrayed by a traitor and sent to prison. But the young queen who had just succeeded to the throne heard that I came from the ancient Parthian Kingdom, so she came to see me in prison in person. After chatting with me all night, she decided to pardon me... At that time, the young Queen decided to open the way to Avalon for the first time. But because there was no law to rely on, she could only help me apply for a position as a court ritual master.

"She said that I could also leave secretly and go to the Theocracy. She would not come to hunt me down, but she just didn't want me to die in prison. But if possible, she still hoped that I could stay.

"I realized that I, who was originally incompetent and powerless, could actually change the fate of a country... I was very honored to accept the invitation of Her Majesty the Queen and stay."

Hearing Ibn's words, Aiwas was surprised.

... Scaleless Hand?

He couldn't help but ask: "Then do you know someone... He is also a member of the Scaleless Hand, named Jacob Alexander."

"He is one of the founders of the Scaleless Hand and also my friend."

Ibn replied with some nostalgia: "I don't know where he ended up..."

When he said this, he suddenly exclaimed, raised his eyes and looked at Aiwas seriously.

"... You seem to look a lot like him."
