Chapter 414: Aiwass's Fear
Aiwas originally planned to stay out of public view until Isabel returned... or to be more precise, until Isabel presided over the round table meeting and announced the resolution to replace the minister.
He didn't want to cause trouble for Isabel, so it would be best to distance himself from these things for a while.
After all, he wasn't really here to usurp the throne. If he really wanted to do that, he wouldn't have to be so hypocritical... Queen Sofia was just short of telling him, "You can take it yourself."
Even though Isabel's increasingly resilient heart could ignore the gossip, Aiwass could not allow it to exist.
The pastoral training of Night Demon Venis had concluded. Now Aiwass was ready to begin the process of slowly training Flame-Defying Butterfly, striving to bring her up to the same level as Night Demon as soon as possible.
To relieve his boredom, Aiwass selected a few monographs from Yulia's bookshelf, all of which dealt with the geography, customs, and culture of the imperial period.
Aiwass plans to concentrate on reading and studying in the next two days.
But just when Aiwass was reading quietly in the Queen's study, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Lily, who had been standing silently behind Aiwass, seemed to emerge from the wall, her outline and body appearing from nothingness.
She walked to the door and whispered to the person at the door for a while, then brought the documents in the suitcase to Aiwass.
"So early?"
Aiwass was a little surprised.
It was only seven in the morning. He had just finished his morning exercises and prayers and had breakfast.
What big deal could happen at this point?
The round table meeting probably hasn't started yet at this point.
With doubts, Aiwass took the file box and tore the seal to open it.
There was more than one letter inside, but the most important one had a silver dragon-head seal stamped on it. Aiwass opened it and saw the brief but important message.
"...Scarlett Emma is here?"
Aiwass murmured, frowning slightly: "So fast?"
This wasn't a surprise visit.
Because he had actually received the news.
Yesterday afternoon, news came from the Xingti Embassy that Countess Emma would come to Avalon in the near future to discuss "many matters closely related to peace in the next ten years"... But no one expected that the succubus would come so soon, and she didn't even bring her team with her.
Aiwass keenly noticed the problem.
This cast a shadow over his heart.
If the Star Antimony people truly intended to have a serious negotiation, they would have provided an accurate list of the visiting personnel, submitted it to the Avalonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for confirmation, and then finalized the itinerary, leaving Avalon ample time to prepare.
Although the relationship between Avalon and Xingti has eased considerably, there are still disputes and conflicts in various fields. This is not something that can be resolved in a short time... Even if she is the current First Secretary of the Red Prime Minister, she cannot make decisions on so many departmental matters.
From this point of view, Aiwass believed that the Star Antimony people had no intention of having a good talk at all.
But the problem is that Aiwass knows almost nothing about Countess Emma.
At least Emma never entered the story—she died directly in the background story of the main plot. Aiwass only knew her name because her death was well-known enough.
As the unlucky person who performed the world's first "Tail Ring" ceremony, she used her life to tell others who wanted to copy the ceremony a crucial experience: be careful, the Tianshi who was pulled down would beat you.
Aiwass could only infer her identity through other information.
The "Red Phase" and "Black Phase" of the Star Antimony Empire were two unsung heroes who helped Valentine I establish the kingdom. Their names remain unsung in history, and publicly available sources only reveal that they belonged to the Path of Love and the Path of Transcendence, as well as the Path of Twilight and the Path of Adaptation, respectively.
And Aiwass knew a little more.
——For example, the two “first prime ministers” are actually still alive today.
Hong Xiang is a Moon Child with power approaching the sixth level, having been a Moon Child since at least the time when the Giant Kingdom existed. Aiwass also roughly guessed from the CG in the trailer that he is most likely the one who intercepted and killed Meg during the Dream Realm's ascension ceremony in the original history.
He is the main BOSS at the end of version 5.0, and his strength is very powerful. Although it is not known whether he has the prototype of such power in the current version, at least in the future he will have the powerful combat power to transform into a dragon and summon a river of blood.
And he and Aiwass have a good relationship.
Just like Kamen Rider's new form always has a protection period... teammates always have to show off their skills when they advance.
In the game's scripted performance, the original Red Phase, Peng Bo Na Qi, was defeated by Aiwas, who had just advanced to the "Great Beast Lord." The player was merely a supporting player, with Aiwas providing the critical damage during several phase transitions.
——The first generation Red Prime Minister, Pomponazzi, was killed by the appearance of the new form of "Evans".
As for the other Black Phase, he is the mentor of all the necromancers in Xingtan. He is also the final boss of the main dungeon "Thousand-Year Vengeance Spirit Tower".
The best necromancer academy in Xingti is called "Zigar Tower", and it has existed since the Imperial Era. At that time, the Black Phase was the principal of the Zigar Tower.
To this day, the Ziggurat still exists and he is still the principal.
He had long since abandoned his physical body and transformed himself into a spirit, achieving a kind of eternal life.
In today's Star Antimony, alchemists and demonologists are fighting fiercely, almost tearing the entire society apart, but this is just the surface of the extraordinary world.
The "Red Phase" faction represented by the Sons of the Moon, Witches, and Blood Mages, and the "Dark Phase" faction headed by Necromancers and Prophets have long since withdrawn from the center stage of the Star Antimony Kingdom.
Even so, every Black Chancellor to date has been the Vice-Principal of the Ziggurat, and every Red Chancellor has been the child of the first Red Chancellor. These two factions rarely express their views now, but when they do, they carry immense weight... Both the nobles and the king must respect their opinions greatly.
Because they not only represent themselves, but also represent the two groups of fifth-level extraordinary people behind them who have no intention of fighting for power and have weak royal control, as well as the two top powerhouses who are now very low-key.
As the Red Prime Minister's first secretary, Countess Emma is very likely - or will inevitably - become the next generation of Red Prime Minister.
Considering this, Countess Emma probably has a close relationship with Count Leipzig, who is trying every possible means to get Miss Aleister... It is likely that they are "relatives" at the level of the Children of the Moon.
Either they are siblings, or they are brothers and sisters.
But behind her stood one of the world's most powerful figures. While not as powerful as the Eternal Pope, the "mediator of all wars," Pomponazzi was still a dangerous figure to be reckoned with.
Such a big shot came to visit alone with bad intentions... If it were before he got the Night Demon last night, Aiwass would definitely be afraid of her.
“…I have to go see her once.”
Aiwass made up his mind: "After all, she is a genuine succubus, and she also works part-time as a child of the moon."
The Son of the Moon is also a profession that excels at mental manipulation. The combination of these two professions is terrifying.
Rounding it off, it's roughly equivalent to a Yuri rushing in.
Aiwass really didn't want Scarlett Emma to come into contact with too many people.
It can even be said that anyone who is touched by her will be directly classified by Aiwass as "temporarily untrustworthy".
It’s hard not to have a strong combination of love and transcendence.
A transcendent who is extremely self-centered, extremely narcissistic, extremely selfish... and at the same time extremely confident.
Because no matter if it is a demon incarnation or a demon, the demon in the body will burst out after death. At this time, even if it is resurrected as a child of the moon, it will completely lose this profession, just like Bayard in the past.
On the one hand, it was because the path had deviated, and on the other hand, it was because the demon in the body had disappeared, and he had become an empty shell.
If, when transforming into a Moon Child, the energy levels of other paths are too low... then after transforming into a Moon Child, they will be dyed into the pure color of the Path of Love, erasing this characteristic. This is the exclusive nature of the Path of Love.
It takes at least the third energy level to have some residual impact.
In other words, she had to become a Moon Child when the Demonologist reached the third energy level. Then, she had to pick up the declining Transcendence Path again, cultivate it to the fifth energy level, and advance to the Demon Incarnation - which was equivalent to practicing the Transcendence Path twice.
If you reach the sixth level in this way, you can achieve a special achievement.
【Perfect person】.
It is also nicknamed "perfect creature" by players.
He possesses the immortal vitality of the Moon Child, the powerful strength of a higher-ranked Phantom Demon, and the mortal sin brand of the Fallen Angels. However, because he possesses a complete physical body, he is not considered a Phantom Demon who needs to leave the material world. Furthermore, because he possesses a physical body, he can continue to level up and advance. Unlike the Moon Child, he does not have many weaknesses and taboos, nor is he susceptible to dispels like a demon.
In version 2.0, there is a boss who is a perfect man, who even caused a lot of trouble to the Eternal Pope at that time.
Aiwass didn't know what level Countess Emma's path of love had reached.
But even if she is just close to being perfect and reaches the double fifth energy level... I am afraid that even Ligeia will find it difficult to stop her.
This is a dual-path non-human fifth energy level that is at its peak and is even making steady progress. It is completely different in power from the "bone sculpture" that is also at the fifth energy level but will die of old age in a few months.
But after hearing what Aiwass said, Lily did not agree immediately for the first time, but was a little hesitant.
She looked at Aiwass with some concern: "I remember that the Son of the Moon is very good at charm..."
She also experienced the promotion ceremony of the Son of the Moon and witnessed the horror of the Son of the Moon with her own eyes.
Not to mention, according to Aiwass, she is also the legendary succubus...
"Don't worry," Aiwass said briskly, "she can't kidnap me."
……Really?
Lily bit her lip, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"You are not allowed to follow."
Aiwass ordered, "You will stay in the Palace of Silver and Tin and protect Julia. Go and tell Ligeia to go and bring Isabel back in person."
He gave this order because he was worried that Lily would be controlled by Emma.
At the same time, Emma had already entered Avalon openly...Evans was also worried about Isabelle going shopping outside like this.
"yes."
Lily nodded slightly and finally chose to obey Aiwass's order.
