Chapter 207 I gave you a chance but you didn’t use it.
Although Isabel is not needed at all in this operation, as the location of the portal, Isabel still needs to know the details of this operation.
When Meg went to see Aiwass in the afternoon, she brought Yanis's magic painting with her.
In order to ensure Lily's safety, Lily had already been teleported to the Palace of Silver and Tin through the magic painting at that time. Otherwise, the bone sculpture might have killed Lily before killing Aiwass.
It was also from that moment on that Meg realized... I was afraid something would happen tonight.
Precisely because Yanis must have known about it, she made arrangements in advance.
Unlike the outside world, Meg's mood is rational and calm. She just doesn't express her thoughts.
Therefore, although Aiwass told him the job transfer method and various taboos of the lost profession of "Ascension Warlock", he also explained in detail the ritual called "Sloughing Ceremony".
But she still didn't change jobs immediately. It was because she wasn't sure what she would become after changing jobs, and tonight she had to make sure that the enemy was killed.
As for things like curses, spies, and the noble red, we can let them go for now.
Meg has used her own methods to confirm that Aiwass did not lie or omit anything.
Meg didn't want to force the promotion either. She knew that this promotion was almost certain to fail.
——But she really had no choice.
Even if he died in the dream world with his soul broken, it would be better than dying slowly on the bed... That gesture would be too ugly.
And her age is here. With so many years of research experience in occultism, she can confirm that this ritual is completely feasible after just listening to it once.
She can even improve the ritual based on her own experience - and she is confident that she can successfully complete the "sloughing" in just one ritual.
That is, signing a contract with Huan Tiansi, gaining the possibility of molting, and then borrowing the power of Die Tiansi through a ceremony. There is no danger in the process of signing a contract with Tian Si, and the reward for borrowing power from Die Tiansi is
It was also paid by Huantiansi.
After completing the previous preparations, the only thing that really needs to be taken seriously is the molting ceremony itself.
Just like an insect turns into a cocoon and transforms into a butterfly; abandoning the old body and acquiring a more powerful body... there are only two points to pay attention to, the first is "the determination to surpass the past self", and the other is to endure severe pain.
If anything, Meg has actually completed the "shedding ceremony" long ago.
It's just that she didn't know about this ritual at the time.
Meg's husband at that time was a powerful adventurer. He was a bohemian exotic swordsman, nearly twenty years older than Meg at the time, and had traveled to eight countries. By the time Meg got married,
Only twenty-five years old... She had traveled with him three years ago, when she had just graduated from Wangli Law University at the age of twenty-two, and she had gradually grown up.
Their wedding was not a wedding in the usual sense, with blessings from relatives and friends - it was a ceremony performed before challenging the dragon. The wedding took place at an adventurer camp in the wild, and only teammates attended the wedding.
The reason is also very simple - the adventurer's journey is to challenge the dragon. And the dragon is right in front of him. If he misses this opportunity, he doesn't know if there will be another time.
He was ready to die, but he didn't want to die without getting married. So in the end he married Meg, who was devoted to him... It was more of a joke than a formal wedding.
She didn't even wear a wedding dress, and the priest who blessed them was an illegal priest in the adventure group.
But to Meg, there was no doubt that she was married.
When she finally waited in the camp and learned from the only surviving thief who had adapted to the road that her husband had not returned...she had already made up her mind to avenge him one day.
In the past twenty years, she has never forgotten her past hatred and used every means to improve her strength.
Twenty years later, she was the same age as her former husband. And she met the giant dragon again.
This time she killed the giant dragon with her own hands and bathed in its blood - that was her husband's wish.
He is a demon who transcends the path. If he can successfully bathe in the dragon's blood, he will gain enough power from this act of transcendence, and may even obtain the blood of the dragon.
But for Meg, who was on the authoritarian path at that time, her body was unable to absorb dragon blood. This ritual only brought her great pain, and her bones and flesh melted, but it did not bring her any benefits.
And when she was dying, the silver-crowned dragon personally came down to bless her.
"——The brave will be rewarded, the loyal will be rewarded, and the strong will be stronger than others."
The rumbling voice of the Silver Crowned Dragon rang in her heart. The Pillar God gave her the law of command that was stronger than ordinary people.
She named this unique power the Dragon Blood Law to commemorate her motivation for obtaining the law.
If only she could have known about the molting ritual at that time...
Standing in front of the broken statue, Meg shook her head slightly to dispel the distracting thoughts rising in her heart.
There are not so many ifs. If she had correctly obtained the benefits from the ritual, then she would not have been compensated by the Silver Crown Dragon. At that time, she did not have so much desire for transcendence, and perhaps she would not be able to be compensated by Huantian Si
Recognition.
"Ms. Meg... the enemy should have been defeated this time."
The Great Guardian breathed a sigh of relief and confirmed: "What should we do next?"
Meg pulled herself out of the nostalgia of the past and smiled heartily: "What else can be done? Record this quickly - just say that Master Lars Graham from Iris is actually a
Assassin, I arrested him on the spot while trying to kill an important person!
"Then he tried to fight back, intending to destroy the entire glass island at the cost of his life. Then I countered the spell, and then he was chopped into mincemeat by me with a few knives! The evidence and everything were ready, and Master Yanis was the witness.
…The next step is to write a letter to the Theocracy and ask them to condemn the Iris people.”
"……no problem?"
The Great Guardian was a little worried: "Leave everything to you? Aren't you going to be...promoted?"
Provoking the hostility of Iris will only lower the success rate.
"snort."
Meg just sneered: "Shylock and Aiwass, don't those two boys like to fake death? This is our Avalon tradition... After all, technically speaking, Lancelot I also faked his death.
"Since they are so looking forward to my death, then I might as well fake my death for once."
Maybe after tonight, when the sun rises, "Meg" will cease to exist.
Thinking of this, another idea came to Meg's mind.
Perhaps dying together with "Lars Graham" is also a good ending for "Meg"...
On the other side, Lily and Isabel were dressed and gathered around Aiwass' bed.
Strictly speaking, this is actually Isabel's bed. It's just that Yanis teleported Aiwass here.
Her transmission did not have any fluctuations and was extremely smooth. Even Aiwass did not realize that he was being teleported silently, and his sleep was not broken.
Because Meg said, almost everyone is here this time. He doesn't have to worry about anything, he just needs to sleep peacefully.
If he said this to other people, he might become so nervous that he couldn't sleep.
However, Aiwass chose to completely believe in Meg.
Not to mention, this painting foreshadows Yannis' involvement.
——If you don’t trust Meg and Yanis in Avalon, then there is no one else who can be trusted.
Now the Great Guardian, Yanis, and Meg are all still alive... Even in the future war to destroy the country, Avalon will not be able to spend so much high-end combat power. At that time, Avalon would only be able to fight and fight with full power.
Next two.
One is the Grand Inquisitor, whom Aiwass is not familiar with, and the other is an old man who served as the Grand Judiciary before Queen Sophia came to the throne.
Then what else do you have to be afraid of?
Not to mention Noble Red, even if Rosicrucian comes, they can definitely protect their own safety - if they can be woken up, then they are novices or underestimating the enemy.
So, although Aiwass didn't know who the person who attacked him tonight was, he fell asleep very peacefully.
This was the first time Isabel saw the opposite sex sleeping. It was also the first time Isabel saw Aiwass showing such a peaceful and unguarded expression.
She quietly approached Aiwass and wanted to reach out and touch his face.
But her heart was beating so fast—thumping, banging, making her feel like her heart was about to jump out.
She turned around nervously and held Lily's hand, and at the same time wiped the sweat from her hand.
Lily moved her mouth: How about I wake up the young master?
--don't want!
Isabel shook her head vigorously.
Such a fun and rare opportunity, if you miss it, there may not be a next time!
She advanced and retreated, and finally reached out her hand and quietly touched Aiwass's face.
……Huh?
Aiwass didn’t wake up?
Isabel was a little surprised.
The last time she watched Aiwass take a nap, she noticed that Aiwass was sleeping very lightly. She and Lily just walked closer, and Aiwass woke up. If it weren't for his slow breathing, it would have been as if he wasn't sleeping at all.
As if sleeping.
But now Aiwass rarely sleeps so deeply...
So Isabel carefully sat on the edge of the bed.
After making this action, she waited for a while.
Seeing that Aiwass did not wake up because the bed shook slightly, he quietly put his hand on the other side of Aiwass's body.
She slowly leaned down and wanted to kiss Aiwass on the forehead.
But just when she lowered her head, she suddenly found that her long hair naturally fell down under the action of gravity and swept Aiwass's face.
Aiwass frowned slightly as a reflex, startling Isabel.
Her body immediately leaned back, and the bed shook obviously. This time Aiwass really woke up.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Isabel sitting by the bed with blushing cheeks. Aiwass, who was still a little confused, was stunned for a while.
...Oh, I haven't woken up yet. Go back to sleep.
With this thought in his mind, he rolled over and continued to close his eyes.
Aiwass hugged Isabel's quilt tightly in his arms and curled up into a ball. Isabel stood up in a panic and came to Lily's side. The two of them retreated far away.
——Did he wake up? Did he open his eyes just now??
——No, this is how the young master sleeps. Today has been quite heavy. Normally you might wake up when you sit down...
The two whispered and bit their ears.
And on the painting behind them, there was a figure of Yannis shaking her head slightly and sighing.
