Chapter 253

Lancermello returned to the Sanctuary three years earlier than she had initially told Shion - in fact, the Paradise Fairy's original plan was to return directly to the Astrology Hill to collect the bodies three years later, rather than returning early and floating like a shadow in the Pope's Hall waiting for Shion to introduce the changes that had taken place in the Sanctuary over the past few years.

"... Didn't any of them notice anything unusual?" Shion looked at Lancermello who suddenly appeared in the corner of the Vatican and pressed his forehead helplessly, "You went up one floor at a time, and none of them noticed anything wrong - Saga and Aiolos were even about to get the holy clothes..."

"After all, no matter what, they are still just children." Lansemelo, wrapped in the black robe of Asclepius, showed a gentle smile in his eyes and slowly walked in front of Shion. "Even I didn't expect that the Golden Saint Candidates you picked up were younger than the last."

——Although Fujimaru Ritsuka, who once saved the world, was only sixteen years old at the beginning, the list of protectors that Chaldea prepared at the beginning were all adults!!!

——When the burning happened, Kirshtalia was already 26 years old!!!

"You didn't come back just to laugh at me, did you?" Shion sighed, leaning back in his chair and looking at Lansermero, "I'll just assume you're here to help me - which children do you plan to approach? Didn't you say before that there would only be one god in the sanctuary... You, don't plan to show up as a god this time."

"After all, if we want to talk to gods, it is most convenient to use the identity of gods - because they will not look down on the ants under their feet." Lanser-Mero adjusted the bird-beak mask and conjured a flower of Avalon from his hand. "But now we want to establish a connection with humans, so of course it is more appropriate to use the identity of humans."

"However, in fact, except for the oldest group, the others are probably not suitable for direct teaching..." Shi Ang sighed worriedly, thinking of the three people who are still in the garden planting flowers, "especially, they really show characteristics that are strongly related to their corresponding constellations..."

"Show me the list."

After Lancermello left the papal hall, Shion ignited his inner universe and communicated with Tonghu——

"You're right. She didn't leave me alone to teach the Gold Saint Candidates, but she also didn't say whose education she would take over."

Lancermello took the list that Shiang gave her and began to learn Merlin's past teaching plan - if there was no way in reality, then she would just take the class in her dreams.

The oldest of these Saint Seiya candidates is currently fifteen years old, and the youngest is only four years old - but as Shion said, they all showed clear characteristics related to the constellations themselves...

Or to put it more directly, the focus points selected by Lancermello in the list even have a strong connection with the gods related to the constellations themselves.

"I hope he won't think I'm being reckless." After finishing his secret observation of the thirteen candidates, Lansemello had already made clear arrangements for the future. "It should be enough to start preparing from now on. Even if it's me, I can't rush to rescue another dying guy right after I finish dealing with the incident at the Astrology Hill."

"So you only picked two people - indeed, even if you don't use the clairvoyance, you already have enough sources of intelligence for the future." Asclepius commented, "After all, it's not the time for the singularity to appear, and it's also very troublesome to greatly distort future developments - what should we do next?"

"First of all, in order to ensure that the future Sagittarius Gold Saint will be alive in three years—" Lansemello used magic to make the candidates quickly forget the sudden dream just now, "We have to place one of our own in the team that will hunt him down in the future. Compared to Pan or the crab that hinders Hercules..."

"Large terminal for intellectual teaching, spirit particle intelligence warfare attack aircraft - Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty." Asclepius briefly sorted out the past experiences of Chaldea that he knew, "Not to mention you - even if it is the entire Chaldea, Aphrodite should be more familiar."

"Let's go back and talk to Shion first - it will be convenient for us to arrange the courses later." Lansemero adjusted the mask on his face and returned to the Vatican like floating. "He should at least be thankful that I really taught students before - and I was the kind of tutor who took care of all the daily life of the students."

From the next day, as if there was a gap in their memory, no one noticed that two people were missing from the Golden Saint candidate team - and deep in a forest in Britain, the Paradise Fairy opened the gate of the ancient manor for two human cubs.

This manor is a pure magic creation based on the memories of Lancermello and William, splicing the Animusphia's main house and the Moriarti family's residence. Although Lancermello initially told Shion that she would approach it as a human... she is no longer a human, so she still chose to reproduce the story of the fairies treating humans badly.

The two men, who were almost completely controlled by magic, walked stiffly towards the interior of the manor under the gaze of Lansemelo. Perhaps the two younger boys tried to resist, but that resistance could not break free of the control of the crown magician, just like the God-Breaking Alliance in the past could not resist the mental attack from Aphrodite.

"...They are almost there." In the depths of his consciousness, Asclepius suddenly spoke, "If you don't see the development you want to see - what are you going to do?"

"Then I just think Shion has found the wrong person." Lansermello looked at the two stiff people coldly, but his eyes were not on them. "There is still no trace of them in the world now - I have been wanting to teach this class for more than 200 years. I can only hope that this generation of Aquarius and Pisces will not let me down like their previous generation."

"If Shion knew you were raising a child this way, he would never agree to anything you said." Asclepius complained, and soon he became quiet again and watched with Ereshkigal.

Finally, before setting foot in the manor, the older boy who had been tricked by the goblins into the goblin country earlier managed to break free from Lansermelo's control.

"The test passed." The "court" magic used for imprisonment was completed in an instant. The Paradise Fairy released the control over the other boy while walking into the manor. He easily transferred the two of them to the inside of the manor and closed the door. "Welcome to the new world - from today on, you are my students."

The time inside the "Garden" magic constructed by Lansermello this time is different from the time flow of the outside world, while the growth rate of the two boys is consistent with the time flow of the outside world. So Lansermello simply left the pigeons alone for a few months, and after leaving the three meals to the familiars, he went directly to find William, who was part-time in charge of the group, to write course materials together.

The course materials were based on the version currently used by Fujimaru Ritsuka, and were adapted to be more suitable for the learning of the Gold Saint Candidate cubs - and William also used the group's channels to send Lancer Mello a batch of the world's most advanced astronomical equipment to use as teaching props.

——Of course, there is a probability of more than 90% that these equipment will be brought back to Chaldea intact by the three magicians of Animusphia when they return to Chaldea; as for the small probability of 10%, they will be left directly in this world.

As for other teaching materials, Lansemello's own opinion was to buy them when needed later - so when Lansemello returned to the manor inside the "Court" magic, the two boys who had been let loose for a long time had already learned to solve the problem of three meals a day on their own.

——The special nutrition meal for familiars that only contains essential nutrients is definitely not something for humans to eat.

The first thing Lancer Mello saw when he came back was two kids baking cakes. He was strangely reminded of the common jokes about nationalities in the Chaldean kitchen - if they were British, they probably wouldn't care so much about the deliciousness of their meals... Of course, Lancer Mello's special nutritional meals for his familiars were something that everyone except Fujimaru Ritsuka had complained about.

"…The class will start tonight." Lansemello looked at the two children taking cakes out of the oven, mentioned the future arrangements without any intimidation, and disappeared from their sight to set up the class. "Come to the garden after dark - in addition to paper, pen and ink, you also need to bring quilts, pillows and blankets. There are all in these rooms."

"I hope you don't need me to catch you in class."

Perhaps it was Lancermello's reminder that worked, or perhaps it was because of the vacancy during this period - in any case, the two boys brought all their things and went to the garden for class on time.

The night sky of the "Garden" magic is filled with stars. Because the flow of time is different from that of the outside world, when Lansemello first constructed this "Garden" magic, she incorporated the starry sky she had seen in the past into the scenery that can be seen in this courtyard. Anyway, she didn't plan to teach astrology here, and if she just wanted to tell some mythological stories, this was enough.

Just like in the Avalon in Merlin's dream, Lancermello also arranged white round tables and chairs in this garden - the familiar was heating black tea behind Lancermello, as if this was just an ordinary short class, rather than the three of them would waste the entire night under the night sky.

——Just like when Lancermello taught Kirshtalia and Olgamari in the house of Animusphia instead of Marisbilli.

"Good evening." The fairy of paradise who was sitting elegantly at the round table put down the teacup in her hand and smiled at the two children who seemed to be huddled together subconsciously, although nothing seemed unusual on the surface. "Today is our first lesson since we met - we can put the self-introduction activities aside, and now..."

"You should make your own beds in the garden."

As Lansemello spoke softly, the two boys subconsciously looked down at the quilt they were holding in their arms - and Lansemello smiled and picked up the black tea again, and while waiting for them to finish their preparations before class, he once again brought up the ancient question related to the sky.

"Do you know why humans look up at the sky?"
