This is the first time Isabel has seen Aiwass so well-behaved and quiet.
Of course, Aiwass is not usually a very outgoing and lively person. And not long ago, Aiwass was sitting in a wheelchair every day.
He always looked at others with indifferent and calm eyes, smiled lightly when others were chatting, and listened quietly. Occasionally adding a few words, he almost always followed the conversation of other people. That one
It makes people feel comfortable and relaxed, and anyone will want to play with him.
...But Isabel always felt that Aiwass, who always brought others a sense of relaxation, did not live that easily.
She always felt that Aiwass had many things in his heart that he couldn't let go of.
When Aiwass had a smile on his face, Isabel felt that he was frowning slightly in his heart. When others were laughing and playing, Aiwass just sat there quietly, looking there but as if
Look into the distance.
——It's like he's about to move to a far away place, so he doesn't intend to leave any traces in front of him; it's also like someone who has come back from the future, and already knows that his current friends are just passers-by, so he doesn't intend to invest any real feelings.
Isabel didn't know what Aiwass was worried about. He was obviously so good that she even admired him...but on the other hand, she felt that Aiwass was even more naive than she was.
He likes to show off his strength and do risky things, and he also likes to be recognized and praised by powerful people. But at the same time, he is a little awkward - it is a strange, Isabel's self-esteem that comes from nowhere, which makes him unwilling to identify with himself.
This kind of expectation in his heart. Therefore, no matter how proud he is, he will not take the initiative to let others praise him.
Aiwass is obviously very young, but he never wants to identify with his identity as a young man.
...just like a big boy who has been sensible for a long time, but has never grown up.
Maybe it's because of his past life, Isabel thought.
She heard Yulia say that before Aiwass was adopted, he and Yulia grew up in an orphanage. The two had no father or mother and depended on each other... and Professor Moriarty adopted Yulia first.
, in the end, the fact that Yulia adopted Aiwass together because of Yulia’s fierce reaction to her unwillingness to leave Aiwass seemed to stimulate his heart.
It seems that this is the only way to explain it.
Aiwass lost his parents and relatives not long after he remembered it. His adoptive father and adopted brother were both busy people, and his adoptive father did not have a wife in his family. After being adopted, Aiwass basically stayed with Yulia.
Stay with me at home.
At that time, Aiwass was very lonely and could only read at home. Looking back now, Aiwass's erudition may have benefited from his reading habits at that time.
Isabel had previously entrusted Sherlock to investigate Aiwass's experience in middle school out of curiosity.
Only then did she realize that Aiwass was once a sportsman. He was good at many types of sports.
Also because of his outstanding athletic performance and gradually erect figure, Aiwass finally began to be liked by his classmates on a large scale. After receiving a lot of recognition from others, Aiwass was like a nourished plant, and gradually became
Be cheerful and confident and become so dazzling.
But now, he stood quietly beside his grandmother's bed, his whole body seemed to relax.
Even though Ligeia and Isabel were here, they barely interrupted. They just allowed Her Majesty the Queen to mutter some meaningless gossip about life.
Aiwass seemed to be her biological grandson. He stayed by the bedside and softly catered to the old lady's words. His face was not the bright and warm one he usually wore, but because he was too perfect, he always gave people a false impression.
It's not a sexy smile...but a quiet smile that reminds people of water and moonlight.
Of course, Isabel knew that her grandmother had been out of energy for a long time. But now, Queen Sofia not only burst into hearty laughter one after another, but her voice even became clearer, as if she was all well.
She vaguely felt something.
Therefore, he did not interrupt the conversation, but stood quietly behind Aiwass, listening to his grandmother's voice almost greedily.
This meaningless yet warm chat lasted for nearly two hours.
Aiwass is very good at chatting, especially good at talking to the elderly.
In the end, they didn't even go to the banquet hall to eat, but asked the servants to deliver the food directly to the room. Sofia had a rare seafood fried rice, a bowl of creamy mushroom and chicken soup with bread, and some fruit.
After eating, she said she was sleepy and wanted to go to bed. Then she sent Aiwass and Isabel out.
Aiwass and Isabel didn't go far.
When she was at the door, Isabel gently pulled Aiwass' sleeve and cast a searching look at him.
Aiwass shook his head slightly.
He had previously glimpsed Queen Sophia's physical condition with the divine vision of a priest.
Even without using illumination and introducing healing light into her body to check the situation, Aiwass could roughly feel that her vitality had been completely exhausted. Treatment and recovery alone were no longer enough to maintain her condition...
If you want to continue to extend your life, you can only use rituals that increase the upper limit of your vitality.
"In fact, even ordinary old people should not be so exhausted when they reach this age."
Aiwass sighed: "Not to mention the Queen of Avalon."
"Because she is really tired."
Yanis's voice sounded softly from the side.
Not in the painting, but in person.
She came over and touched Isabel's head. Then she put her hand on Aiwass's shoulder and motioned for the two of them to follow her and leave.
They soon arrived at the study room.
This is the place where Her Majesty the Queen usually works. But Ligeia has already arrived here, drinking beer alone.
But Isabel slowly took the main seat.
She fiddled with the papers piled up on her desk and sorted them out. Although she seemed a bit unfamiliar, this was obviously not the first time.
"Sofia's character is that she likes to do everything by herself. Even if it is a small matter, she also likes to ask a few questions. But she rarely expresses her attitude directly to other people. Even those who are close to her do not know what she is doing.
What are you thinking... But without realizing it, you will find that everything is changing according to her thoughts."
Ligeia, who was a little drunk, made a childish voice.
It seemed like he was mocking something, but also like he was remembering something: "From this point of view, she is indeed not suitable to be a queen. But from another point of view, Avalon is not more suitable to be a monarch than her.
of people.”
Isabel pursed her lips and her eyes were a little red.
She moved the files from left to right, and then from right to left. She seemed very busy, but she didn't know what she was doing. Because her mind was a little confused...so confused that she couldn't think normally.
.
Aiwass also sighed.
If nothing else, she should be the only person who fully knows the background of Aiwass and Aleister. But obviously, even Ligeia and Yanis, who are closest to her, do not know these things.
Aiwass originally thought that Her Majesty the Queen took him to chat in the end because she wanted to entrust him with something.
For example, about Avalon and Isabel.
Maybe it's about the Round Table, about Lloyd's.
That ordinary sweater deeply touched Aiwass's heart.
This was also the first time Aiwass had the clear idea of "wanting to continue Avalon."
Before this, Aiwass tried to eliminate the hidden dangers of Avalon just because this was the country where he and his friends lived. He had no feelings for Avalon itself, let alone any obsession.
Because Aiwass has lived here since he was a child, he has adapted to life here.
Because the assets of the Moriarty family are here, and because he doesn't want to adapt to a new environment.
Because Sherlock is loyal to the queen, because Isabel is the future queen, and because his friends can't live without Avalon——
If not, Aiwass might choose to destroy Avalon and rebuild it. Maybe that would be cleaner.
Her Majesty the Queen has received information from the Crown Master. Her understanding of Aiwass may be deeper than Aiwass's understanding of himself. Even if she does not know Aiwass's future goals, she must know that he is paid attention to by the Pillar God.
Talents and gifts.
If she makes a request, Aiwass will definitely listen carefully.
but none.
——Queen Sophia still didn’t say anything until she finally fell asleep.
Aiwass clenched his fists subconsciously.
He opened his mouth slightly, but ultimately said nothing.
