Chapter 928 Returning Home in Glory
When Aiwass returned to Avalon this time, he did not hide his identity.
The elegant, splendid elven warship gleamed in the blazing sun as it entered the harbor of the Glass Island, drawing crowds to stop and gaze. Its massive ruby armor gave it the appearance of a moving treasure.
Reporters who had received the news in advance were waiting here and taking pictures of it.
Ordinary people couldn't help but admire this - they certainly couldn't know how powerful this warship was, and how easily it had defeated the demon sea of such a large scale.
——Just by looking at its elf style and its noble and magnificent artistic shape, you can tell that there is definitely a great figure in it.
The Griffin Legion had already lined up nearby.
The Arbitrators, clad in shimmering elven silver armor and carrying rune-studded giant swords, stood in formation beside their griffin companions, leaving a wide path. Bystanders were required to stand outside that path.
——High-level authoritarians of this scale only need to stand here, and the powerful force of order is enough to distort the rules of the world here.
The road between the two rows of arbitrators emitted a faint silvery glow.
Although the road was not covered with ice or frost, there was an inexplicable white, fairy-like mist lingering at our feet.
It wasn't until a plain "carriage" without a family crest or shield slowly drove up the road that the onlookers understood the size of this important figure.
Because although this carriage doesn't look big, the decorations are not very luxurious, and it even looks a bit old...but it is pulled by a pure-blooded white-feathered griffin.
And although this carriage didn't have a family crest, it did have two silver triangles nested inside each other on the door, one large and one small. The smaller triangle in the middle contained a green eye...
Without a doubt.
This is the national emblem of Avalon!
In all of Avalon, there was only one person who could afford to hang the national emblem on her carriage without any other decorations. That was Queen Isabel, who, at only nineteen years old when she ascended the throne, was able to bring order to a chaotic and nearly divided Avalon!
People couldn't help but talk about it:
——What kind of important person is worthy of being personally welcomed by the Queen?
When the "carriage" stopped, Queen Isabella in a white dress gracefully stepped out of it.
It was a soft gauze skirt layered like a clamshell, and a faint blue and purple pattern like the starry sky could be seen on the inside of the skirt. Her feet were wearing crystal shoes with shell patterns, her body was adorned with pearls, and an emerald was hung around her neck.
And on Isabel's head, there is an elaborately carved silver crown in elven style.
Because Isabel had not yet completed her coronation, she could not appear in front of outsiders wearing the true crown that only the monarch of Avalon could wear. In addition to being an exquisite piece of jewelry, this crown was also a protective prop made by the elves of Avalon.
Near Isabel's slightly long elf ears, there were a few blue-purple flowers pinning the white veil.
The exquisite and beautiful appearance makes people lose themselves in admiration.
——Queen Isabelle is absolutely beautiful, even more beautiful than elves!
Rather than meeting important guests, this dress that has never been seen in public looks more like a wedding dress.
And the doubts in people's minds were soon resolved.
——The one who walked out of the ship made of gold, rubies and white jade was their proud Prince Aiwass!
He wore a black cardinal robe with a huge emerald inlaid in the hollowed-out part of his chest. He disembarked from the splendid elven warship, smiling and waving to the people.
The only difference from when he left was that Aiwass had a pair of distinct antlers on his head. The base was jade white, while the top was a translucent bright red.
But that is undoubtedly the hallmark of a great candlelighter.
People did not feel any fear or terror at all, but instead became more and more fanatical!
Realizing that it was Aiwass who returned home, the crowd suddenly became excited.
"Your Holiness! Please look at me!"
"You're back, Lord Moriarty!"
"Excuse me, do you still want to return to the Islamic State?"
"Aiwass, I'm your classmate, do you still remember me?"
"Thank you, Your Holiness! You saved me and my family..."
"Your Excellency Prince Aiwass, I am Edward Hilton, your admirer..."
As a somewhat foreign territory of the Theocracy, the people of Avalon hold a strong reverence for elves. For most, elven culture is a superior form of culture. Many even enthusiastically pursue traces of elves, even going so far as to pursue wild elves abandoned by the elves themselves.
However, Aiwass broke the unspoken rules at the beginning of the establishment of the Church and became the Eternal Pope with a human body!
He even did a good job as Pope. He was not impeached by the cardinals and did not make any mistakes - and now he has stepped down smoothly!
This alone brought Aiwass's reputation within Avalon to the highest level.
There is no doubt that Aiwass's existence will further and permanently deepen the relationship between Avalon and the Theocracy - this ultimate change in the country's destiny is even more meaningful than several generations of monarchs!
Among them were even some Star Antimony people who were brought back by orders given by Aiwass himself.
If there had not been an arbitrator maintaining order, the fanatical crowd would probably have rushed to Aiwass.
Aiwass possessed a beautiful aura as bright as the sun. Just looking at him up close was refreshing. Even being watched by Aiwass was like feeling the pain begin to heal.
Legend has it that the true Eternal Pope can cure terminal illnesses with just a touch of his hands, make fatal injuries vanish just by looking at them, and can resurrect the dead and reverse day and night just by chanting a prayer...
The people of Avalon had a very superficial understanding of supernatural powers, and many things that supernatural beings could do seemed like legends to them.
But even so, their understanding of the Eternal Pope's abilities was surprisingly correct—because Aiwass could indeed do these things easily.
The moment Aiwass stepped onto the silver road, he was in a trance... and seemed to hear people's prayers from the sound of people talking.
Many voices overlapped.
Fanaticism, admiration, greed, respect, worship, jealousy, greed, amazement...
The illusion lasted only a moment—Aiwass felt like a god. The world fell silent, and only the sound of people's prayers echoed in Aiwass's heart.
And when Aiwass took another step, the illusion disappeared.
Isabel smiled brightly and took small steps into Aiwas' arms.
Aiwass hugged Isabel without any concealment and bent down to kiss her forehead.
Isabel boldly stood on tiptoe in front of everyone, raised her little face and closed her eyes. Aiwass just smiled, leaned forward slightly, and bit Isabel's lip.
Isabel's body bent softly backward, completely trusting Aiwass's embrace, her center of gravity resting on Aiwass's arms that held her from behind. Her neck and back, bent backward, resembled a beautiful silvery-white crescent moon.
"I'm back."
Aiwass said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."
At that moment, tears welled up in Isabel's eyes.
But her smile was so bright that it instantly made the tears disappear.
"Not bad, isn't it?"
She moved her lips slightly and mouthed a reply.
Aiwass kissed her deeply again, blocking her from saying anything else.
