Chapter 469: The Whirlpool of Coincidence

"I guess Ms. Blood Diamond should have rewarded you with a magic potion that can extend your life...right?"

Aiwass asked with a smile: "But you didn't use it. You're lucky."

"...Yes, a bottle of amber magic potion that can extend your life for three years and obtain the first level of Dusk Path."

Drost nodded with an ugly expression: "Fortunately, I hesitated..."

In fact, it was not hesitation - the trembling of the real fire made Drost immediately change his mind: "To be precise, it was because I had already embarked on the twilight path and felt that I could extend my life by my own strength. And I felt that I couldn't trust them to follow me. The medicine was said to be effective, so I presented this medicine as a 'birthday gift purchased from overseas' to Her Majesty the Queen..."

No wonder……

Avas suddenly understood.

Therefore, Queen Sophia, in the world line of Aiwass, does not seem to have that close relationship with Droste; but in the entrance CG of this promotion ceremony, her trust and intimacy with Droste are even comparable to Aiwass of the main world——that is the level of absolute trust that regards Drost as "unique".

Because without that bottle of medicine, the Queen would have died of natural causes in the winter of 1898.

Sophia knows her body, that's why she trusts Droste so much. Her body could no longer bear it, and it was impossible for her to survive until the autumn of 1899.

And Drost's tribute is like the guilt after cheating on his lover.

He knew that he had committed treason, so perhaps intentionally or subconsciously, he wanted to make some compensation for it...

...From this point of view, Drost's brainless actions almost disrupted everyone's plans.

From Star Antimony to Avalon, their plans have been turned into muddy water. Before this, the prophets of Star Antimony may have sensed that the queen's life was approaching, and they only had to deceive the weak and naive Isabel and control her through Drost and Lloyd.

That's why they laid out Lloyd's - if they planned to assassinate Queen Sophia from the beginning, Lloyd's layout would be meaningless at all.

But just because Drost gave a bottle of life-extending potion given to him to Queen Sophia, the Star Antimony people's plan was directly disrupted-their economic problems were already serious in 1898, "King "The so-called alchemists squeezing the living space of botanists happened in the spring of 1898.

As a result, it was delayed until 1899, and Queen Sophia was still not dead.

She may even have reached the level of the Dusk Path, with the ability to extend her life independently, and can live for many more years... From the imported CG, her physical and mental conditions are obviously better than the "one" in the Aiwass world line. Years ago" was much stronger. He doesn't need help when he walks, and he doesn't even breathe when he talks.

That's why she didn't train Isabel's abilities, nor was she prepared to find an assassin to kill her and activate the Shadow of Avalon ritual.

In the world line of Aiwass, she had already asked Isabel to accept government affairs when she was about to die.

Because Sofia felt that her health was getting better, she wanted to do it herself again.

As a result, the Star Antimony were forced to come up with a new plan-to assassinate Sophia and replace Isabel.

Avalon is recovering, but Star Antimony can no longer hold on.

...Just in terms of results, it was delayed for one more year because of Drost's unconscious actions. As a result, even if Star Antimony captured Avalon, Star Antimony still split up in the end.

All this is because in the years when the economy was not good, the conflicts in various regions of Star Antimony have become too serious.

——Thinking of this, Aiwass couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous.

It turns out that the subjugation of Avalon and the division of Star Antimony were only due to an inexplicable move by Drost...

A "little man"...although not very small, his unintentional actions directly changed the entire world situation.

It’s just a vortex of coincidence. Or it can also be said to be the root of all evil.

It was precisely because of his unconscious actions that all the coincidences spread, causing everyone to be unfortunate...

It was precisely because Aiwass killed him in advance that this did not happen.

"...It's really fun."

Aiwass sighed and shook his head slightly.

The question that has troubled me for a long time has finally been answered.

He raised his head, smiled at Drost, and said very tolerantly: "Very good, I now allow you to ask me a question.

"But to be clear up front...if I didn't want to answer the whole question, I wouldn't say anything. Then this question would be a waste."

... Drost felt that "this lord" was becoming less and less pretentious.

Your current tone is no longer similar to "Aiwass", right?

"Hold on," Aiwass said coldly, "your time is running out."

"If you have a question..."

Droste immediately began to think.

——Are you Aiwass Moriarty?

No, definitely not. This question is so stupid and a waste...

So……

——When did your noble will descend on this body?

No, it still doesn’t work…

Drost thought quickly and finally settled on one sentence: "Who are you?"

The corners of Aiwass's mouth raised slightly.

He laughed happily, as if he was finally relieved.

"Some people call me Aiwass Moriarty."

Ewass said slowly: "But some people in Star Antimony will call me...

"——Aleister Crowley."

The candle flame did not shake at all.

It was the truth.

Droste blurted out: "The Crowley family where Earl Crowley belongs? !"

"Yes, that Crowley."

Although it was the second question, Ewass still nodded tolerantly in response.

The candle flame still did not shake.

——It turned out to be the family where Earl Crowley belongs!

Droste felt suddenly enlightened.

The Crowley family is a very powerful family of demon scholars, and it can even be said to be one of the top families of the "demon scholar" force. When the royal family represents alchemists, the red phase represents witches and moon children, and the black phase represents prophets and necromancers, Crowley and other demon families jointly represent demon scholars.

Although there are no world-class strongmen like the red phase and the black phase, each family has a fifth-level extraordinary person. If they unite, they can cooperate with other forces. Confrontation.

The Carl family, to which General Leo Carl belongs, is also one of the several demon families.

They are not completely obedient to the royal family, and they are not so close to the Red and Black phases. That's why he came to me to inquire about the news, that's why he doesn't know the whole picture of this matter, that's why he is against them...

The doubts that arose from "Ewass" asking too much questions before have now been completely dispelled.

As for how "Aleister" entered Aiwas's body... Drost didn't know, but he didn't dare to ask. Maybe it's some secret of the Crowley family... Anyway, it's right to make sure that he is related to Earl Crowley!

"Mr. Crowley!"

Minister Drost immediately knelt on the ground: "Please save me! I am willing to sign a contract with you!"

"Yes."

Aiwass answered very straightforwardly.

His eyes were deep: "I can save you, as long as I have the final say... I can also make Blood Diamond never touch you from now on. You can still go to Xingtan, go to your Drost Manor, and be your Viscount Drost. I will never stop you.

"But that depends on your sincerity - the things you had before are not enough."

"...What do you want?"

Drost asked cautiously.

This time, Aiwass did not say something like "I don't need anything".

He gave a very clear price-

"I want Diomedes."

Ewass tapped the armrest with his fingers and said calmly: "Right now. I want him to be useful."

"...But, that is the guardian of the Drost family..."

"The guardian spirit can also be transferred. As long as you adopt me as your adopted son, and then voluntarily give up the Drost family name and transfer the position of the head of the family to me. As long as you give up the Drost family name, you don't need to die to transfer the guardian spirit."

Ewass's mouth corners slightly raised, and he persuaded: "Anyway, you can't take the guardian spirit given to Avalon by the Theocracy to Xingtan, right? It's just a matter of a few months...You are safe here, right? As for giving up the family name...I won't give it to the newspaper, and no one else will know, right?"

Seeing that Drost's eyes were tangled and hesitant, Ewas didn't give him room to think.

He closed his eyes lazily and ordered casually: "Okay, go get the ritual paper. I say, you write."

"...Yes, Mr. Crowley."

Droste finally made up his mind.

-Just sell Diomedes to him.

I don't know what he will do with Diomedes...but if it is an order that threatens the life of the guardian elf or restricts the other party's freedom, the guardian contract will be automatically lifted. This is what Diomedes warned Droste in person when he was a child.

...Maybe "Aleister" will be killed by the backlash. Droste thought darkly.

Even if he really doesn't need Diomedes after he arrives at Xingtan, and may even have to find a way to get rid of Diomedes...but it still makes him bleed to death that such a precious thing was taken away from him.

"It's not Mr. Crowley, it's Miss Crowley."

Evans narrowed his eyes and said leisurely: "'Aleister Crowley' is a woman. Don't write it wrong, otherwise the contract will not take effect."

"Yes, beautiful lady."

Minister Droste said respectfully: "I'll be back soon."

-What are you so proud of, bitch!

Minister Droste, who seemed to be out of danger and suffered heavy losses, said fiercely in his heart.

And Evans just smiled silently and looked at Droste quietly.

That gaze made his scalp tingle-she can't read minds, right?

Watching Droste leave the Queen's bedroom in a somewhat embarrassed manner, Evans walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling mirror.

He stroked the mirror, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"I got another powerful combat force."

Evans said to himself: "Is this the feeling of speeding through the second round with a strategy guide..."

I have to say, it's a bit cool.

And soon, his soft palm turned into a fist and gently hit the mirror.

Guardian spirit, Diomedes.

He doesn't need to be defeated or killed at all.

—— Because he is the highest-level resource that can be obtained from the NPC "Minister Droste" in the promotion ceremony!
