It would be nice if George was still here, Shafiya thought.
If possible, it would be best for the Great Guardian to escort Isabel to the Theocracy and try to steal the Queen's blood himself. If it succeeds, then everything is fine; if it fails, at least Isabel can live safely.
But the Great Guardian George is not on the Glass Island at all.
Due to the turmoil on the border some time ago, the Great Guardian is guarding the southern fortress and commanding the navy to set up a defense line.
And if the Great Guardian is on the scene, the two of them may not be able to defeat the two fifth-level opponents with local advantages. At least George will definitely be able to snatch out the queen's body. He also knows about the Shadow of Avalon.
Or, do you want to take a gamble?
Hide Isabel somewhere first, and then grab the body yourself.
After obtaining the Queen's Blood, immediately perform the Shadow of Avalon ritual. Just bet that I can resurrect Lancelot before Isabel is found
It seems that this is the only way to do it, Shafiya thought to herself.
The most dangerous and accident-prone option, but it is also the most profitable option.
"If Meg was still alive, would she choose this way?"
Shafiya murmured in a low voice.
At this moment, she was actually a little confused.
Her ability to react immediately and rescue Isabel was already her limit.
But under the triple pressure of time, powerful enemies and family, Shafiya felt her scalp numb just thinking about it. She even felt her breathing trembling slightly.
As long as she goes too late, or the queen's body has been destroyed or turned into an undead, or if she goes too long and Isabel is captured, Avalon will perish. It is entirely possible that they have set up a trap around the queen's body, waiting to capture them, and they may also be framed by the Round Table Hall for assisting in the betrayal, and even their husbands and daughters may be implicated in this.
You don’t even need to be killed or captured alive by them. As long as you cannot obtain the Queen’s blood in time, it means failure.
At this moment, the pressure piled up in Shafiya's heart was too great.
But she must be strong. As an elder, how can she show confusion and powerlessness in front of a poor child like Isabel?
Shafiya took a deep breath and spoke slowly. Xu asked, "Little Isa, do you have any familiar and absolutely reliable friends who can take you in for a few days and who will never betray you?"
Her voice was filled with nervousness. Becoming a little hoarse.
Originally, Shafiya just asked casually, and then planned to hide Isabel in Hermes Manor. At least Sir Arthur must be a trustworthy and loyal minister.
But she didn’t expect that Isabel actually gave an answer.
"Can you take me to Moriarty's house"
ThisThe soft but tough girl whispered.
"Professor Moriarty's house?"
Shafiya frowned slightly, "But he has a close relationship with Lloyd's and I don't recommend that you go to their house."
p>
Although Professor Moriarty did not appear directly at this banquet.
But there is another possibility. That is Professor Moriarty had known for a long time that the knights were about to start a brawl. As a scholar, he was too weak and lacked combat effectiveness, so he chose to avoid the battle.
The Moriarty family usually has a relatively close relationship with the Drost family.
The ancestor of the Moriarty family is the Mordred family, and Mordred's biological son once betrayed Avalon. This is not without precedent.
Nowadays, Shafiya is very nervous. She feels that these founding families cannot be trusted.
Among the twenty founding families, some must have received the news in advance.
Didn’t any of them stand up and issue a warning?
Or is it that the founding family felt that Lancelot’s descendants had ruled Avalon for too long? I wanted to return to the round table era
But the timid and soft girl showed her a heartbreaking expression, "But, I can only"
She As she spoke, she felt as if she was about to sob and cry, "The only one I can trust is him. If even he betrays me"
When she said this, she finally broke down in tears. started crying.
Seeing Isabel's sadness that was so strong that it didn't seem fake, Shafiya felt shaken.
She realized that her denial seemed to be the straw that broke the camel's back. She subconsciously regretted her previous words, but at the same time, she also had doubts and curiosity.
"Who are you talking about?"
"Aiwass."
Isabel whispered, "Actually, he and I are pen pals and we have known each other for many years. "
"The pen pal is real"
Shafiya was a little surprised that "that famous bishop"
It turns out that this autistic princess actually She really has her own friends
Seeing Isabel lower her head and go down, Shafiya knew that she had roughly guessed it right.
"However, it's just a pen pal's words"
Shafiya still feels unreliable.
After all, Isabel has never been exposed to social life at all. Such a pure and spotless girl is really easy to deceive.
Although the young Bishop Moriarty had a good reputation in the royal capital circles, everyone said that he was a pious, gentle and solemn man, and many young girls were attracted to him. to him. But he refused all confessions, and there were even rumors that he fell in love with his unrelated sister.
As an extraordinary being on the path of devotion, there seems to be no big problem
Originally, Shafiya wanted to find trouble.
But the more she calculates, the more I feel that Aiwas is quite reliable.
You can reach the third level of consecration at this age and pass the church's assessment to become a bishop. He even touched the boundary of the fourth level and was invited by the Theocracy to study abroad. With such a person's level of compliance with the path of devotion, it is unlikely that he is a bad person.
But thinking about this, Shafiya felt even stranger.
How did little Isa know this bishop?
From what she said, it seemed that she had a very high level of trust in Aiwass. So high that if Aiwass betrayed her, she would be heartbroken to the point of despair.
But Isabel said firmly, "He has read my diary a long time ago."
"That's right."
Shafiya understood. .
Isabel probably likes Aiwass.
She knew what Isabel's "diary" was and what fears were recorded in it.
The diary passed down in the royal family is the most desperate and softest place in Isabel's heart. If she is willing to share this thing with others, it means that she truly trusts the other person more than anyone else except her relatives. Not even Shafia and Meg have read her diary.
"Okay, I'll take you there."
Shafiya made up her mind, "But after all, he is just Professor Moriarty's adopted son, and his opinion may not be decisive. If Even if Professor Moriarty doesn’t want to take you in, I will find a way.”
Compared with the loyalty of the Hermes family, Aiwass, who can soothe her heartbreak and fear, is indeed better. choice.
Isabel lowered her head slightly.
She clenched her fists slightly.
I have to say that she is actually gambling.
Because she cannot be 100% sure that if she happens to "herself", Aiwass will also happen to "Aiwass". At least Shafiya's words were no match for the Aiwass Isabel knew.
Not Minister Moriarty, but Bishop Moriarty.
Fortunately, Isabel reacted quickly enough and made adjustments in time.
But if "Aiwass" is not Aiwass, will his lie be exposed?
Isabel is a little worried.
Because when she realized that Avalon was facing an extremely dangerous situation, she subconsciously wanted to seek help from Aiwass. The main reason is that she knows that she must not go to Hermes Manor because she knows that York Hermes is the traitor, and judging from the situation, it seems that he has not been discovered.
Let’s take one step at a time.
If Aiwass is not him, then find a way to deceive him
Isabel still believes in her acting skills.
She can play the cold and correct queen, and she can also calmly play her autistic and weak self in the past.
No matter the past or future, it is her.
On the other side, Aiwass and JamesSitting together.
"Little Key"
Aiwass murmured in a low voice, frowning slightly.
He thought of many possibilities in his mind, but there was no definite answer.
As for the key, it should be for opening the door. But what door needs to be opened by himself?
Looking at Aiwass's reaction, James suddenly laughed.
The old man stretched out his hand and calmly made a silent gesture.
"Is this something that cannot be said?" Aiwass asked.
"It seems that your progress is not enough."
James smiled so happily that the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes creased with laughter. "Then I won't say anything."< /p>
There is no doubt that James is testing Aiwass to see how far he has learned about himself.
Aiwass had no reaction to this keyword, which exposed some of his intelligence.
For example, which period did Aiwass come back from? Another example is how far his plan has been completed.
"How about we change one question to another?"
James asked gently, "Why are you so wary of Dad?"
Listen At this point, Aiwass has made two points clear
James has indeed noticed that there is another Aiwass under the skin of "Aiwass"; and he can realize that Aiwass Si's caution and vigilance towards him.
Since there are many different timelines in this detail, and he can be so keenly aware of Aiwass' inner thoughts, Aiwass's adoptive father must have seen it more clearly.
Is this the reason for his departure?
Because he sensed that Aiwass was wary of him, so he simply faked his death and escaped, taking advantage of the situation to hide in the dark
"I sent the guest away, sir."
When he said this, Oswald came back.
Aiwass subconsciously glanced up at Oswald, and Professor Moriarty waved his hand, signaling Oswald to leave first.
After Oswald nodded and left, Aiwass said softly, "Father, I don't want to answer this question."
"Then I won't answer."< /p>
James smiled and nodded, and said very calmly, "If you ask me questions, I won't say them if you don't want to; then if you don't want to answer the questions I ask you, it's the same thing. Our relationship is equal." , Aiwass.
“No need to compromise, I will try my best to help you. "
"Because you want me to live, right?"
"Yes. ”
James gave an affirmative answer.
The professor must have a plan for Aiwass, and Aiwass, who doesn’t know what the “little key” means, just He must have failed to complete his mission. In order to help himself in another world line complete his layout, the professor would not let Aiwass die in the dream world.
Aiwass was also vaguely aware of this, but he still had to ask to confirm it.
In other words, James’ ultimate goal must transcend personal interests.
He knew that he was in a promotion ceremony and was just a pseudo-soul created by the Pillar God, but he was trying his best to maintain the stability of this promotion ceremony. And trying to help another "real self" hide information.
If he is serving himself, then he does not need to stand so firmly with his true self. To him at this moment, after all, he is a different individual.
"Then it's my turn."
James asked, "You are a divine entity now, right?"
"I'm not 100% sure. , but it should be."
Aiwass replied seriously after being silent.
This is not a lie, but the truth.
Because even if he told the truth, the real Professor Moriarty would not know it. But Aiwass hopes to get intelligence from James, who has more information. Every question of Professor Moriarty must be meaningful.
You can get some feedback by carefully exploring his perspective on the problem, the purpose of the question and his reaction after getting the correct reply.
But Professor Moriarty stopped asking.
He just leaned back and leaned happily on the sofa. "I have no questions. I can also answer your last question or help you complete a task."
"Yes. Will you lend me Mr. Oswald?"
Aiwass pondered for a long time and asked.
"Okay."
James replied without hesitation.
He didn't even think about it at all, but responded immediately the moment Aiwass finished speaking.
At this moment, Oswald suddenly came back quickly.
"I'm sorry, sir. But"
The old elf hesitated to speak, his expression was a little strange. He glanced at Aiwass, and then looked at James hesitantly.
"What's wrong?"
James asked.
Without waiting for his response, Shafiya took Isabel’s hand and walked out closely behind Oswald.
She took Isabel and sneaked directly into Moriarty Manor.
Obviously Oswald knew what was happening in the Palace of Silver and Tin at this moment, so when he saw Isabel fleeing directly here, he subconsciously thought that this was Professor Moriarty's arrangement. .
But Aiwass, who was sitting on the sofa, locked eyes with Isabel, who was looking straight at him.
With just a momentary, emotional look at each other, both parties can understand each other's identities.
This is him.
This is exactly her.
