Now, the shadow demon summoned from the ritual is in the shadow at Aiwass' feet.
He was in a wheelchair not because his legs were sacrificed and he was unable to move. It was because if he stepped on his own shadow, the Shadow Demon would immediately wake up and materialize.
This wheelchair was what Aiwass asked for from his old housekeeper after he woke up.
Because now, his [Shadow Affinity] level is too low.
Shadow Demon is a high-level demon. The Shadow Affinity needs to be at least level 3 to control Shadow Demon, and it needs to be Level 5 to fuse with Shadow Demon. Before that, he can only extract part of Shadow Demon's power to use "powers". Although
Shadow Demon will not harm himself, and will even protect Aiwass based on the contract, but he is completely unable to restrain Shadow Demon's behavior.
From this perspective, a demonologist who contracts with low-level demons is like walking a dog; and Aiwass is a dog-walker.
How to seal the shadow demon is not something "Aiwass" should know. It is a memory from another world.
Aiwass Moriarty, Path, Demonologist, Kingdom of Avalon... This is the world in an MMORPG game called "The Ring of Ouroboros".
This game is published and operated by their company "Shameless God Studio".
It is said to be "their company", but in fact the output of this game has nothing to do with Aiwass, because he is not a staff member of the R&D position. He is a new human resources manager, commonly known as HR.
Three years ago, Aiwass resigned and became unemployed. Because he was stuck by the non-compete agreement, he could not find a job in the same industry... so he was dragged into the trap by his best brother.
That brother is the company's game copywriter, and Amway talks over and over again in his ears every day, talking about the many Easter eggs he designed.
In the end, Aiwass couldn't bear to be bothered, and he also caught up with the game shortage, so he got into it and played it for a while. He felt that it was indeed a good game. The disadvantage was that it was quite boring - but it was good to pass the time when he was unemployed and at home.
Later, I heard that "The Faceless God Studio" was recruiting HR, and Aiwass happened to have passed the restriction period, so he directly submitted his resume and came for an interview.
It turned out that while he was still handing over work, he was sent to this world by a dump truck just because he was crossing the road on his way to work to answer a message.
...Had he known that he would travel to this world, he would have asked more about the company's internal information, or gone to the forum to read more plot discussion threads!
This is the biggest mistake.
Because Aiwaswei is essentially an explosive player who doesn't pay much attention to the plot and doesn't care much about the characters.
Although he usually learned a lot of secret settings, character backgrounds and future main storylines when chatting with friends, and also learned some preliminary plots from the group. But he has never cared about the main storyline, on the contrary
The branch plots of various characters are much more interesting.
Aiwass entered the game from the 3.0 era. As soon as he passed the first group boss, he took the main line book and completed all the old main lines up to the beginning of 3.0 with one click. Not only that, he was able to jump on the way to upgrade and at the start of the dungeon.
All the plot animations have been skipped. There is really no way to skip them, so I can fast forward through them by left-clicking, left-clicking, left-clicking, left-clicking.
As a result, Aiwass can't remember what the early main plot was at all. Instead, he was more impressed by the later plot, because the plot of the main plot was quite good. Even if he didn't watch the previous plot carefully, he could pass the unskippable plot.
Make a rough guess about the plot and performance of the group.
At the very beginning of the main plot, "Aiwass" appears.
In the winter of 1890 in the Libra calendar, he was kidnapped and held on the altar for a ceremony. A passing "player" accidentally broke the barrier that drove passers-by away and saw the cruel sacrifice scene. In an emergency, he pretended that he had reported it to
He arrived at the Supervision Bureau and was leading the way for the gryphon knights from the Supervision Bureau, directly scaring away those two people.
Aiwass was rescued by the "player" from the ritual altar, and then entertained the player, who was homeless because his wallet and identity certificate were stolen, to come to his home to eat, drink and rest.
After that, Aiwass will enroll in school with the player, grow up together, and continue to investigate the case together. It turns out that the case is getting bigger and bigger, and even involves the kingdom's top officials...
And because Aiwass was in mortal danger, his sister Yulia suddenly lost control - under the catalysis of the blood crystal, she became the "Phantom Demon·Flame Butterfly", the first eight-person BOSS.
That is also the first phantom that players see in the game.
Her body is curled up into a ball, wrapped in an amber-transparent butterfly chest and abdomen, and butterfly wings made of flame essence protect her. Because the level of the dungeon is low, this eight-person book is the easiest to arrange in the daily random book.
When I arrived, I would call Yulia three or four times a week on average.
Because Yulia doesn't want to hurt Aiwass, it is a classic entry-level BOSS with no mechanism and no desire to attack. He attacks and dodges. Even if the level is high enough, he can just fight the whole process regardless of the mechanism.
The main body can barely pass the level. If you eat the main line book after defeating Yulia, you can get some appearance rewards.
In the end, she was killed, lost most of her spirituality and shrank into a flame butterfly, and was contracted by Aiwass to become his first familiar. Aiwass used this method to retain her spirituality, hoping to find it later.
According to legend, the master "Insect Amber" who mastered the art of resurrection resurrected him.
It was not until the 5.0 version of the main line that Aiwass mastered new abilities. Aiwass, who could seal theoretically unkillable phantoms into cards and arm his familiars with enhanced equipment, finally obtained the special ability.
A great enhancement for him.
Then he no longer accompanies the players to complete the mission, but becomes a plot killing method to end the phantom-type BOSS in CG.
"……elder brother?"
Just when Aiwass thought of this, he suddenly heard a childish voice.
He was suddenly startled.
Haina, who was excitedly chatting with Aiwass about "Sherlock and Reasoning", heard the voice and turned around subconsciously.
I saw a little girl standing silently at the door.
"When you woke up yesterday, I happened to be sleeping. After I woke up, you fell asleep again."
She had just woken up in the evening, feeling a little aggrieved and a little stunned as she said: "Brother, why are you...in a wheelchair?
"——Who is she?"
She wears the same pure white plush pajamas as Aiwass, her silver-white hair reaches her shoulders, and her crimson pupils are reminiscent of roses. Her facial features are delicate and soft, reminiscent of a white cat or rabbit.
He is a completely different type from the dazzling handsomeness of Aiwass. Whether it is his eyebrows, hair color or eye color, it is enough to prove that the two are not related by blood.
If we want to talk about the similarity between the two, it is the same sense of illness and frailty.
She has a similar sense of frailty to Aiwass, and it is more obvious than Aiwass.
The girl's skin is a bit sickly, almost transparent and fair. When she stands at the door, she will unconsciously hold on to the door frame on one side and tilt her body slightly to deflect her center of gravity and reduce the pressure of standing up straight.
——What a cute girl!
Haina's eyes lit up.
It was like seeing a cute pet and she wanted to get close to it, but she was worried that she would scare the pet.
"It's okay, Yuri. It's just temporary. This is Senior Sister Haina. I have something to ask."
Aiwass smiled and called the girl's nickname as he remembered. But for some reason, he always felt that this title was a bit awkward and awkward to pronounce.
It's like not calling friends by their names for a long time, but calling each other by their nicknames. One day, when you suddenly call each other's full name, it always feels like it's not their name.
After being in a daze for a moment, he slightly opened his arms towards Yulia: "Come for a hug."
"……Um."
Yulia walked over obediently and swaying. As if she had just woken up, there was a sense of powerlessness that made people worry about falling.
While hugging Yulia who was leaning against her, Aiwass suddenly fell into a trance for a moment.
At this moment, he was hugging Yulia, but she seemed to be another "Aiwass".
As the memory of "Aiwass" in this world, after receiving the prophecy of the future, he suddenly felt some kind of fear.
Yulia will turn into a monster...and then die.
——At this moment, Aiwass's memory overlapped with reality. They were completely merged together, and the memories of his double life became clear. It was like a person who was sleeping in a daze and was suddenly awakened by a nightmare, and then finally figured out whether he was
in a dream.
Two days after coming to this world, he finally realized that he was not dreaming. He had actually traveled through time.
Came to another world.
However, he also clearly realized another thing - that is, the plot is different now.
There is absolutely no Contracted Shadow Demon in Aiwass in the game.
Because this time the ceremony was interrupted by the player, it did not proceed successfully at all.
And this probably means that there are no "player characters" in this world.
In an epic fantasy game, players usually play the role of one-time saviors; but if the game is an online game, then players usually play the role of continuous, high-frequency, low-fault-tolerance saviors.
Every major version has to save the world once.
...Then he would be in trouble.
Because the "player" is set to be the blood descendant of [Snake Father] who once controlled the "Way of Transcendence" and was one of the nine pillar gods. Because of this, the player can have "experience points" and "levels"
, there is no threshold, and you can continue to become stronger regardless of talent. In terms of settings, players actually did not arrange the game, let alone form a team, but defeated all enemies alone.
But Aiwass, although he is also an important player, the world-destroying disasters such as "Falling Sky Division", "Disaster Dragon" and "Shadow of Avalon" cannot be accomplished by "strong" people in the conventional sense.
Defeated.
Aiwass knew that something would happen to the Kingdom of Avalon in about half a year.
Although he didn't remember the main storyline clearly, he could at least remember key points such as version changes.
What he told Haina was not a lie. The Kingdom of Avalon will indeed encounter disaster in more than half a year, and it is closely related to the demonic ritual incident they are experiencing now, which no big shot cares about.
But now, Aiwass still has a chance to change everything.
Change everything——
He subconsciously hugged Yulia tightly, and the girl keenly noticed something: "Brother?"
"……nothing."
Aiwass smiled calmly: "That's right, I had a long dream yesterday...I dreamed that Yulia left me."
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a sudden tightening of Yulia's body in his arms.
……Um?
Aiwass's heart moved slightly.
As if trying to cover up, Yulia suddenly asked: "Brother's wheelchair...how long will it take?"
"About...a year?"
Aiwass said and looked at the old housekeeper beside him: "Is that what the doctor said?"
"Yes, Master Aiwass."
The old housekeeper asked without hesitation: "So, do you want to take a break from school for a year? Anyway, I have already taken a break from school for three months."
This is a lie.
And it’s on both sides.
There was no doctor at all to make Aiwass use a wheelchair. This was Aiwass's own request. Those demonologists who contracted the Shadow Demon would use this method to seal the Shadow Demon when they were still unable to control it.
In addition to using a wheelchair when moving around, you should also try to avoid strenuous actions and slow down your movements to lower your heart rate - this is a conventional method to suppress demons.
In addition, you can also take some drugs that suppress the heart rate to put the demon sealed in the body to sleep.
"No need," Aiwass said, "I will go back to school after this incident is resolved."
"...is this incident resolved?"
Haina realized something belatedly.
She instinctively realized that at that moment...Aiwass's attitude seemed to have changed.
She was quite familiar with that feeling.
Haina, who was still ignorant in her freshman year, thought she was still a genius in that remote town. However, in the final exam that year, she failed in astrology and she broke into a cold sweat.
But it was precisely because of this that she became serious and realized that she was far from as good as she thought in the most exclusive school in the Red Queen District of Glass Island in the capital. At least...she was not a pure genius, but worked hard.
genius.
With the same attitude of studying casually as before, she might fail without missing classes... Now she can graduate with the seven-petal flower seal representing perfect marks, precisely because of Professor Moriarty's words back then.
The bright red three-petal flower seal that represented "passed" woke her up.
For ordinary students, this is the mark of being released from prison, which is worthy of cheering and celebration; but for the proud Haina, it is like a slap in the face, which is so hot that it makes her silent and her brain goes blank.
Aiwass gave her this feeling at this moment.
When I saw the transcript, I felt as if I had woken up from a dream——
"Yes, I want to participate in the investigation."
Aiwass suddenly became serious: "Since they will kidnap me once, there will be a second time. Unless the group of cultists are eliminated, I can't leave the house with peace of mind; similarly, I can't wait at home safely for someone I might
The results of the investigation are unacceptable - so I will also participate in the investigation."
Hearing this, Haina was a little embarrassed. This was undoubtedly a reference to the extremely slow investigation efficiency of the Supervision Bureau.
The Supervisory Bureau is very particular about "rules". Everything must be reported to superiors and everything must follow standard procedures. This is the rule of the knights in the Senate.
Precisely because they could find almost nothing, they even needed to ask for the help of detectives. The "Sherlock" Haina mentioned before is a detective who has become quite famous in newspapers recently.
Sherlock graduated from Wangli Law University many years ago, but did not choose to enter the Supervisory Bureau, Law Courts and Arbitration Hall. As a result, he is now a special consultant of the Supervisory Bureau. His investigations are not bound by the various regulations of the Supervisory Bureau, and he has cracked several major cases one after another.
, but his status is much higher than that of his old classmates who joined the Supervision Bureau after graduation.
"If Miss Haina can't make up her mind, you might as well report my words to your boss and ask for his opinion."
Aiwass crossed his arms and said calmly: "Anyway, according to the rules, you have to submit all the contents of this conversation to your superiors, right?"
For some reason, Aiwass at this moment reminded Haina of the interviewer from the Supervision Bureau.
