Chapter 1097 Return to Reynard Fox Bookstore
Although the merger of Avalon and Star Antimony has not been completed yet, and many people still don't know that the new Helasar Empire is about to be established, Isabel has already handed over the power to Yulia very straightforwardly.
There was no reluctance at all—rather, there was impatience.
Although Isabel had accompanied Aiwass to the Theocracy before their wedding, they had only followed the prescribed route... This was the only way to ensure they could arrive at the ceremony at the most appropriate time.
Rather, it was because of that wedding parade that Isabel became even more curious about the Theocracy.
Isabel had never left the Glass Island before she came of age. The first time she left the Glass Island was during the coronation ceremony after her grandmother's death. She was so excited just by circling Avalon that time... After returning, she talked about it with Aiwass for a long time.
At that time, Aiwass had been listening patiently.
It wasn't just that he was keeping Isabel company... it was because Isabel was so adorable back then. Her eyes seemed to sparkle, and as she talked non-stop, tugging on Aiwass's arm and swaying her body, it was impossible to look away.
It was at that time that Aiwas made up his mind - if he had the chance in the future, he would definitely take Isabel to the most beautiful places.
This trip to the Church Country is a good opportunity.
Although they probably won't have much free time this time because of the arrival of the Blood Sky Master... but there's no need to pursue the ritualistic feeling of "the first trip must be the best one" for this kind of thing.
If that’s the case, I’m afraid I’ll always be trapped by the thought that “this time is not perfect enough”, and I’ll never be able to reach the state of perfection, and I’ll miss many opportunities for no reason.
The essence of life is companionship. One more time is always better than one less time.
Anyway, as long as they are together, every time is the best.
The other companion, Shylock, also had something to ask Haibasha, so he came for serious business.
This time they still did not take a ship, but the Church sent a warship to pick them up.
Aiwass had gradually grown accustomed to this kind of "big shot" treatment and no longer felt the initial anxiety and the constant feeling of wasting other people's time. Now he had thought it through... rather than being polite with those elves with a spirit of dedication, it would be better to give them a chance to "dedicate themselves."
He only needs to do what he is supposed to do - guard the world, make people's lives better, and fight against all enemies that are detrimental to the world... whether they are fallen gods or ambitious people.
No one asked Aiwass to do these things, but as one of the strongest people in the material world, he was basically at the top of the world.
If he doesn't do it, who can do it?
He has always believed in a saying: if the sky falls, the tall people will hold it up, and it is not the turn of the short people to worry about it.
And Aiwass is now the tallest person in the material world, so he will naturally be the one to hold the top position.
When the warship arrived at the port of the Theocracy, Isabel's slightly pointed ears moved.
She could already hear the goblins' cries on the distant wind:
"The most comprehensive guidebook, detailing every level of the Theocracy's travel advice, rules, and specialties! A must-have for first-time visitors to the Theocracy, and reasonably priced!"
"Authentic handmade elf clothing, in all sizes! Come to the Church and buy something to wear, and when you leave, you can also buy a few new ones to give away!"
"High-quality seasickness medicine and sleeping pills, made by Living Silver Workshop, works instantly!"
"They're selling clothes... so many..."
As expected, Isabel instantly became interested and looked eagerly in that direction, wanting to see the specialties of the Theocracy.
“…It’s exactly the same as before.”
Aiwass also heard the familiar hawking sounds and laughed softly.
He also missed it a little bit—
More than three months had passed since he first arrived at the Theocracy, and he was now about to be promoted to the sixth level...but the Theocracy remained the same as it had been yesterday, with no changes at all.
"Then let's go and take a look."
Aiwass took Isabel to the clothing store.
He knew, of course, that prices at the port were ridiculously high. Just like the shops at high-speed rail stations or airports in his previous life...
But that didn't matter. Neither he nor Isabel was the kind of person who needed to care about money.
He turned to look at Sherlock and said with a smile, "How about I buy you a gift too, Sherlock? Just consider it a celebration of your promotion."
Sherlock glanced at Aiwass and said casually, "Anything is fine."
But he didn't really care what Aiwass was saying—his mind was already overloaded.
"Oh, forget it, it's all yours anyway!"
Aiwass put his arm around Sherlock's shoulders and said, "Stop studying! Let's go surf the internet!" Like a ruthless roommate, "The data is yours anyway, and the Theocracy won't be around much—check out what you want to buy! I'll treat you, even if you want to buy the entire street!"
Isabel laughed beside him, and Sherlock sighed helplessly and used up some of his computing power: "Okay, okay... Thank you in advance, in case I forget..."
They walked around for a long time, and by the time they arrived at Ms. Hepatia's cafe, or rather, the bookstore "Reynard the Fox", it was almost evening.
Haibasha had known they were coming.
This small elf girl, who looks only seven or eight years old, has been waiting for a long time.
The first time she saw Sherlock, she was a little surprised - she was surprised that she couldn't see through Sherlock's realm: "This kid... has reached the fifth level so quickly..."
"How's that? Pretty quick, huh?"
Aiwass was proud of Sherlock.
"Indeed," Haibasha nodded, "but I'm actually more surprised that you were able to pull him out even though he's already at the fifth energy level..."
Unlike her childish appearance, her temperament was calm and mature, like a teacher or an elder.
“It’s not that easy to do…”
Aiwass also shook his head: "It means he has something to ask you, otherwise he might not be able to pull it out."
Sherlock sighed, "How can I have the time to relax..."
The reason why it’s hard to poop…isn’t it because he’s feeling anxious?
So why is he anxious?
It's because Aiwass was promoted too quickly...
At the end of May, Sherlock finally completed his promotion and reached the fifth energy level.
——A year ago, this was even Sherlock's ultimate goal in life.
As a result, whether it was "Fox" or "Lulu"... these two extraordinary people who were considered his juniors and knew nothing in the promotion ceremony, have now become his "predecessors" who reached the fifth energy level and touched the sixth energy level before him.
Even with the blessing of the Tide of Transcendence... it takes less than a year to reach the pinnacle of the world from a mortal. Is there something wrong here?
Nowadays, everyone assumes Aiwass is a gifted genius born with a heart of dedication, having reached the third energy level before adulthood, which is why he was sent to study in the Church. However, only a very few people know that Aiwass didn't officially embark on the path of transcendence until mid-November of last year.
It was only the beginning of June, which meant that it had only been half a year since Aiwas became a transcendent. Even Sherlock's statement that he had been promoted to the fifth level in one year was conservative enough. Strictly speaking, it had only taken Aiwas less than half a year.
The more people know about the supernatural world, the more outrageous and frightening they will find this matter.
Sherlock is naturally one of them.
Just as he'd been taught a lesson by his brother as a child, realizing he wasn't the smartest person in Avalon and becoming humble, studious, and diligent, with Sherlock's proud and competitive nature, if he could reach the fifth level at his age, he'd definitely soar to the sky—he was only twenty-nine, not even thirty. This level of genius was truly astonishing, not just in Avalon, but worldwide.
...But if I think about it, Aiwass is ten years younger than me, but he can achieve such amazing achievements, then it seems that I have nothing to be proud of.
So Sherlock calmed down again.
