Chapter 447 I'm Already Late, so I Might as Well Skip Class

After being awakened by Xiong Tiansi's nightmare, he looked out the window and saw that the sky was already getting slightly brighter, so Aiwass simply stopped sleeping.

He changed out of his pajamas and put on a shirt, with a sleeveless woolen sweater on top, and then left the bedroom, wandering aimlessly in the palace of silver and tin. The flame butterfly was landing safely on Aiwass's shoulder, looking like a candle in the still dark corridor.

As Aiwass walked, he vaguely heard the sound of piano flowing like spring water.

He followed the sound and found that it was Isabel's bedroom.

He smiled and nodded at the two Queen's guards guarding the door, then knocked lightly on the door.

Although the two elves were the Pope's guards, they looked like beautiful girls in their twenties. They look much more lively than Oswald's group of elf butlers.

Although when they were guarding Isabel's door, they looked serious and almost holy. But when they saw Aiwass knocking on the door and couldn't help but smile, the solemn and heavy atmosphere was immediately broken. Their stance also relaxed.

Compared with those old-fashioned and calm elf housekeepers, they are more like female college students who have just graduated. Although each of them should be about the same age as Ligeia, they possess a kind of purity and innocence that has not been exposed to society.

As the music in the room stopped, Isabel's confused voice came: "Aiwass?"

"oops……"

"Your Majesty has guessed it."

They lowered their voices, teased and made low noises.

Aiwass ignored them, just smiled and put a finger in front of his mouth, then cleared his throat: "It's me."

Then, without waiting for Isabel to respond, Aiwass directly opened the door.

In Isabel's room, there were two papal guards quietly standing in the corner. They looked a little older than the two at the door, probably in their thirties, and looked like younger female teachers. His personality has obviously become much calmer. When he saw Aiwass coming in, he just nodded slightly and saluted him without any expression or words.

Isabel, on the other hand, was wearing a simple goose-yellow nightgown and sitting upright in front of the piano.

When she saw Aiwass entering the door, the corners of her mouth unconsciously raised slightly: "Aren't you curious how I guessed it was yours?"

"You can also be a little curious."

Aiwass smiled, lying on the sofa facing Isabel's piano, stretching lazily.

And Isabel gently pressed the keys with one hand, emitting a melodious and calm sound - a sound that is reminiscent of summer waves.

"Actually, it's because of the rhythm of your knocking on the door."

Isabel smiled and said briskly: "Knocking on the door is also a kind of music. I can also hear your mood and sense who is knocking on the door."

Aiwass tilted his head slightly and squinted his eyes. He supported his chin with one hand, put his arm on the armrest of the sofa, and looked at Isabel.

At this moment, the sun was rising outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the golden rays of light shone on the side of Isabel's face. Make her look as beautiful as a dream.

But what Aiwas paid most attention to was Isabel's bright eyes.

There was light in her eyes and a brisk and confident smile on her face.

Those were expressions and eyes that would never have appeared on Isabel half a year ago.

Aiwass couldn't see the distant Star Antimony, and he didn't know to what extent the war at the junction of Narcissus and Black Eagle had developed. But Isabel's change and rebirth are just around the corner.

"Then what do you think I'm thinking about now?"

Aiwass asked Isabel curiously.

He actually didn't quite know what he was thinking, because Aiwass felt like he wasn't thinking about anything. Just like a sound that is too subtle will fade into transparency.

But Isabel is always sensitive and can listen to the voices of others from these weak fluctuations.

She smiled and said: "Aiwass, your inquiry is like that of a child seeking divination...I am not talking about the real divination like asking fortune tellers and prophets, but students who do not have the ability to adapt. They play tarot cards outside class, that kind of divination for their own entertainment.

"You're looking for understanding and comfort, right!"

"What is the result of the divination, my Lord Diviner?"

Aiwass asked with a smile.

Seeing Isabel's relaxed reaction, he knew the result would be good.

But Isabel's answer still surprised him: "You are eagerly seeking peace of mind. It's like the kind of person who just finished the final exam and feels that he did well but is still a little uneasy, waiting for the results to be released. The mood is the same."

"Indeed."

Aiwass nodded and approved Isabel's "divination".

Of course Isabel didn't understand divination. But she understands people's hearts.

As she gradually understood and digested the third-level "Path of Beauty" ability, she finally gradually mastered the extraordinary power of "All-Arounder".

Isabelle was promoted so quickly that the app couldn't even keep up with the level increase.

This feeling is actually quite familiar to Aiwass. It's like a new player chooses to advance directly, and with a "ding", the professional level of a certain path is raised to the level ten short of the full level... and then looks at the sudden acquisition of a large number of skills, unlocked The new features of the blockbuster are a bit confusing, as if I don’t know where to start.

Although he has become a third-level transcendent, his mentality, experience or application are actually not much different from ordinary people.

The director of the Supervisory Bureau or the elite supervisors, as well as the bishops of small places, are only at the third energy level. Even Sherlock was only a third energy level lawyer before he became a mage.

But their application of extraordinary abilities is obviously much better than Isabel's. The same energy level, the same extraordinary power, and even the same extraordinary skills, but the effects of different people are different.

...But Isabel's great progress is due to Mycroft.

In the past month, Aiwass has not even handled government affairs.

Sherlock's brother, Mr. Mycroft Hermes, was put in the position of Minister of the National Seal by Isabel at the first round table meeting after the national funeral.

Now he has been granted permission to stay in the Temple of Silver and Tin - the bedroom of this "Secretary of the Seal" is even next to Aiwass's room.

Just as Aiwass said at the time: Isabel basically puts the thick stack of documents directly into the box marked "Please hand it over to the Minister of the National Seal" every day.

When there are really important documents, Mycroft will definitely show them to Isabel for review - and Aiwass is usually by her side at this time, so he will read them together and give his opinions.

But for the purpose of training Isabel, Aiwass no longer gives direct answers. Instead, he asks Isabel for her opinions on how to deal with it in an inspiring way, and then she will deal with it herself under Mycroft's advice.

Although some decisions are also difficult, they are not painful. It's like being coached one-on-one by a mentor to solve difficult problems. It's even quite challenging and arouses her pride.

- All this is completely different from the resolute feeling of "devoting all my energy to my work until my death" that she thought when she first ascended the throne.

As a queen, the pressure is actually less than when she was a princess!

It's even a little easier!

This is all thanks to Aiwass teaching Isabel a crucial point - as early as when Isabel just ascended the throne, Aiwass told Isabel that being a queen is like an actor on the stage.

As long as you stay awake, keep smiling, keep your distance, speak reasonably, be likable, accurately play the required attitude, and speak the appropriate lines fluently, you will be a very good monarch. And if you want to go further, you only need to find and trust wise ministers... The rest, "wise ministers" will help solve.

Aiwass is such a "wise minister", and Minister Hermes is a real wise minister.

Although Mycroft complains about troubles every day and always asks for a holiday, he is never sloppy when he really handles serious matters, and has no selfish desires.

Nothing is more trustworthy than a twilight path extraordinary person who is strict with himself and loyal enough.

After relaxing, Isabel can also improve her path ability with peace of mind.

If the first energy level breaks through the second energy level, it tests whether there is the compatibility of this path; the second energy level breaks through the third energy level, which tests the learning ability of the corresponding path extraordinary skills...

Then going from the third energy level requires the path fit.

In this process, it is possible to lose control due to the deviation of the path, or it is possible to make no progress due to the incompatibility of mentality or the inability to find the original intention. It is also possible to be brainwashed by the power of the path and become a crazy person.

When Sherlock had not graduated, the path of authority had already reached the third energy level. And now he has been stuck for so long, and the profession of lawyer has never reached the top, and has not triggered the impulse of the path when the path is stuck at the level limit, precisely because he once lost his authoritarian heart and doubted his own path.

In this month, Aiwas, Sherlock and Isabel have completely digested their abilities-Aiwas is okay, his adaptability to transcend the path has long been full.

During this period, he mainly cultivated his own dedication to the path, quietly learned various knowledge from the school library, and practiced the blessing technique that he was least good at.

But Sherlock and Isabel are different.

Sherlock needs to concentrate on some research and solve some major cases in order to get feedback from the path of wisdom. But before that, it was his level lock of the Path of Authority that loosened on its own... He had reached the limit without any practice.

Perhaps it was because he had truly reconciled with his past self and his parents that the restrictions he had imposed on himself were lifted.

Isabel was gradually cultivated with confidence by Aiwass.

"All-rounder" is a profession that can flexibly use the various abilities of the Path of Beauty - as a versatile profession, it highlights a variety of skills. In this case, if you can't use different abilities in a targeted manner, you will definitely be much weaker than a specialized profession.

So Aiwass used himself as a target, as a "wooden stake" for Isabel to practice various abilities.

Buff, weaken, control, spell damage, treatment, illusion, protection, mind reading, suggestion, detection...

And Aiwass can always give precise "modification suggestions".

After all, Aiwass is not too unfamiliar with the profession of all-rounder.

He knows what level of Isabel's abilities is qualified, so even if Janice leaves, Aiwas can teach Isabel as usual.

——It can even be said that after Master Janice left, Isabel's progress was much faster.

It’s not because Janice is a bad teacher. It’s because Janice is the kind of “mentor” who only lays the foundation for students, cultivates learning habits, teaches learning methods and general principles, and is the kind of “teaching people how to fish” type. She did teach the real “inner skills”, but the effect is not visible.

This is also a common problem of the immortal species.

She always assumes that her student Isabel can endure loneliness and calm down, so she decides everything at the moment from an infinite perspective - fortunately Isabel is really like this.

Aiwas is just the opposite.

He is the kind of “consultant” who directly gives different solutions to different problems.

If Isabel does not take the initiative to ask questions and requests, he will not take action to disturb her self-study rhythm; and if Isabel has questions, he will carefully guide and repeatedly adjust until the problem is completely solved.

Isabel also enjoys the one-on-one teaching process with Aiwas. For her, learning is not a kind of pressure and torture, but a kind of relaxation.

When Aiwass focused all his attention and energy on herself, carefully calculated, thought and gave suggestions, Isabel would feel that her heart became unprecedentedly peaceful.

It was like walking in the forest in the early morning after a rainstorm... enjoying the comfortable feeling that the world seemed to slow down and the sky became clear.

And Isabel was not the kind of girl who pretended that she didn't know even though she knew it; nor was she the kind of student who just watched Aiwass distracted and didn't listen to the class.

In this state of focused and relaxed learning...

Aiwass spent a month to train a gold medal assistant for himself!

It is now February 12th, and there are still a few days until the full moon ceremony.

After the separation, they may not be able to line up together-even if Sherlock can accompany Aiwass to the Church as Aiwas's subordinate in the Ministry of No Affairs, but Isabel will definitely not be able to advance with them.

As the Minister of Avalon without a Ministry, Aiwas certainly can't go to the Church as a college student.

His status in Avalon is too high... This time when he goes to the Theocracy, he must enter the country through formal diplomatic channels in the name of visiting, exchanging and studying with the Minister of the Ministry.

This is also a response of Avalon to the Theocracy's close attitude.

It can be said that Aiwass is visiting the Eternal Pope on behalf of the Queen this time... In a sense, he is the ambassador sent by Avalon to the Theocracy. At the same time, it can also serve as a guarantee of peace, a proof of friendship, a hostage of sufficient weight, and a deterrent to the Star Antimony people - if the Star Antimony is really desperate and ready to attack Avalon, then Aiwass in the Theocracy can play a role in shaking people instantly.

Then you can't come and go as you want.

At least you can't come back openly.

Therefore, Aiwas plans to advance to the fourth level with Isabel first, and then leave Avalon.

...I can't let the gold medal assistant who I taught myself go solo without playing in a double row!

After this promotion ceremony, they will probably have to settle down at the fourth energy level for a while. When both sides have digested it, maybe Aiwas will come back... and then they can be promoted to the fifth energy level together.

Although there may be a penalty of missing the ceremony if there are too many people in the team, you should try to pull a three-person team.

Others have pulled, but you don't. Isn't that a pure loss?

Maybe this is how Meg died in the original timeline-other countries can gather several five-to-six extraordinary people with different paths, but Avalon only has the authoritarian path, so Meg can't even find a reliable teammate.

Not to mention... the difficulty of the three-to-four promotion ceremony will start to increase.

Even if it is a full moon ceremony, failure and death may also incur a death penalty.

In fact, according to reason, Aiwas should have gone to the Church long ago. At least he should have gone last month.

According to normal diplomatic etiquette, Avalon should have sent the queen's confidant as soon as the war started.

But Aiwass was worried about Avalon and Isabel, so he stayed and didn't leave.

... Fortunately, the Eternal Pope fell asleep again two days after he was angry.

Since he didn't arrive at the first time, it was already considered rude... When the Eternal Pope wakes up next time, he will have to apologize. Aiwass was not in a hurry at this moment.

Then why not take Sherlock and Isabel to get promoted together before leaving!

Aiwass made a voice saying "It's late anyway, why not just skip class."
