Neither Aiwass nor Isabel stopped Yannis from leaving.
This is a separation that has long been foreseen, and it is also a destined separation. If you force the other party to stay at this time, it will be impolite and not good-looking.
And Aiwass also knew another secret reason. Only by leaving at this time would Yannis have a chance to change her future tragedy.
Yanis is a standard painter, and her main magic power is water attribute.
Based on her understanding of the path of balance, in addition to water-attributed mana, Yanis also has three attributes of mana: wind, earth, and fire. The ratio is exactly 8:5:5:5.
Because of this wonderful ratio, Yanis was complained by players as the "Golden Ratio Shaomai Man"...so Aiwass remembers it very clearly.
This is also similar to Yanis's character.
Her usual personality is very similar to that of ordinary people, she is quite cheerful, and she does not see the paranoia that occurs when the path reaches the fifth energy level. But her deep personality is like a handful of invisible water.
Sometimes it is gentle like a trickle, sometimes it is violent like a tsunami.
Sometimes it's ice, sometimes it's fog, sometimes it's snow, sometimes it's spring.
But only that elusive, ever-changing thing is the water of balance.
If it stays for a long time and gradually becomes still, it will turn into ice due to the concept of "eternity" attached to it.
By then, it will be time to deviate to the dusk road.
Although strictly speaking, the dusk road was not the wrong road... But now, Yanis could no longer turn back.
The principles of the path of beauty are flow and eternity. Although there are many professions on the path of beauty, they are generally divided into two schools:
One prefers the path of balance, emphasizing the "beauty of the mirror", maintaining the artist's rationality and conservatism, and controlling one's sensibility with balanced rationality and rules. This is flow; the other prefers the path of dusk, emphasizing the "beauty of the extreme".
Trying to pursue the eternal and momentary ultimate beauty, this is eternity.
Balance and dusk have similarities. One sacred number is 5, and among the nine numbers, both from front to back and from back to front are the middle, and the guardian gemstone is topaz; the other sacred number is 9, which is the middle one.
The ultimate sacred number, the guardian gemstone is amber.
Just as the aura of beauty and adaptability are both close to green, so are the colors of balance and dusk close to yellow.
After all, the pillar gods of the path of beauty are twin mirrors...and a mirror cannot reflect anything out of thin air. Just like beauty must be sought from the outside world.
Because of this, extraordinary people on the path of beauty will inevitably embark on the second path after reaching the limit of the pure artistic field. Although there are also those who pursue other paths, it has nothing to do with the path of beauty itself.
As an extraordinary person with a professional background, Yanis naturally chose the path of balance.
The so-called "magic painting", this kind of dynamic painting that contains special power, is a miracle produced by the techniques of the balanced path. Its essence can also be regarded as an alchemical creation, so it naturally has power, and
Can be mass produced.
But when Yanis reached a certain realm, she began to question the path she originally chose.
This is normal... Every artist finds it difficult to resist the call of "twilight" after arriving in a certain field. Painters and sculptors accept the call the strongest.
But Yanis herself does not have the power of the Dusk Path.
Therefore, she pursued the fragments of Tiansi on the Dusk Path, trying to make them into paint, and use its power to complete a peak static painting.
If she is wrong, there will only be two results: either she wastes the Tiansi fragments and only makes a magic painting; or she dies because she cannot bear the conflict on the road.
But the most terrifying thing is that Yanis has indeed proved that she really chose the wrong path back then - she does have the talent for the Dusk Path, and it is far greater than the Balance Path. But she can no longer regret it.
All she could do was to exhaust all her strength, consume all her past life, and use all her obsession to paint her last work.
In the still painting "The Skull in Amber" painted by her future self, the dim yellow glow is none other than Yanis's own skull.
This is also why the extraordinary person on the path of beauty will not start to choose his second path until he reaches a certain level. At least for the extraordinary person on the path of beauty, equilibrium and dusk are two completely contradictory paths. Choice
One means negating the other.
The concept of "what is true is true, what is false is false" she taught Isabel is the concept of the balanced path; and the concept of the twilight path is "the false can also become true,
What is true can also become false.”
Therefore, Yanis, who strayed to the twilight path, lost control and turned into a phantom, could easily switch back and forth between reality and illusion.
That is exactly what "Beauty" blessed by the Dusk Path can do. At that time, her mana pool becomes a pure and single water attribute.
——Now it seems that the death of Queen Sophia is probably a very important node.
As an immortal species, she has formed friendships with too many humans. After repeated encounters and separations, her spirit gradually turned towards the path of dusk.
She wanted to solidify the past, didn't want to acknowledge Sophia's death, and wanted to paint on the glass island for a long time. She painted slower and slower... This was precisely because her spirit was drifting towards dusk.
In the original timeline, Master Yanis probably started to deviate from this time.
Even if it was to prevent Yanis from getting the Tiansi fragments of Lingpo Tiansi, it would be useless - her heart had been twisted at that time, and she could not stop her for a while.
Tracing back to the root cause, it is because Sophia in that world line did not have a happy death.
She did not die of old age, but of betrayal - and what followed was an extremely ugly drama of seizing power.
Yanis had no chance to say goodbye to Sofia, and she was not in the mood to paint this first and last painting.
She could only carry her drawing board and leave Avalon in disappointment. However, she did not forget this emotion, but always accumulated it in her heart, and eventually became the inner demon that swallowed up Yannis' humanity.
——However, Aiwass changed this future.
She finally finished the painting quietly and did not take the painting away, but left it with Aiwass and the others.
This is giving up.
She finally let go of her obsession, let out the depression in her chest, and frankly admitted the death of her friend.
Because of this, the water that is as quiet as ice will flow again, turning into an elusive mist, drifting with the wind to the unknown distance.
Yanis's departure at this time is the beginning of her redemption.
Her destiny changed.
The sentence "Life is short, cherish it" is also her regret and sigh for the life of her best friend Sophia.
After getting along with Master Yanis in this life, Aiwass still likes this gentle and free-spirited elder. Aiwass is very happy to have the opportunity to change her destiny and save her future.
The only regret is...being interrupted by Yannis, Aiwass and Isabel could only quickly return to the Palace of Silver and Tin.
Originally, the two of them planned to spend an entire afternoon shopping on Queen Isabel's rare holiday on the last day of 1898, but now they had to end it early.
——If such an important thing is accidentally stained or broken outside, it will be very distressing.
This painting is undoubtedly the proud work of master Yanis, and it is a precious gift that contains her strong emotions and memories. It is also a testament to the memory of Aiwass who changed Yanis' destiny.
Isabel can feel the "resonance of beauty" just by taking a casual look at it, thereby increasing the intensity of the power of the path.
She even felt that she had vaguely touched the threshold of the fourth energy level.
This is the main promotion method for those who are extraordinary on the path of beauty.
Just like a priest, in addition to daily prayers, treating others is also an important way to improve the energy level of the path; for the path of beauty, in addition to daily basic exercises, the most important means of improvement is "aesthetics".
Whether it is listening to music and watching a play, or appreciating paintings and sculptures, as long as you can resonate with it, feel something and be touched, and immediately improve your level in the corresponding field, it represents an improvement in the power of the path.
It is precisely because of the foundation accumulated over a long period of time that Isabel was able to advance simultaneously with Sherlock's path of wisdom after embarking on the extraordinary path, and she can even surpass her now.
Sherlock is still far from the fourth level, but Isabel has already touched the edge.
It is precisely the aesthetic experience accumulated over so many years that has enabled her to accumulate a lot of experience.
Of course, if your level and talent are too low, it will be difficult to realize the beauty of a certain painting or a certain opera.
If it wasn't Isabel, but other students in the school, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to get any benefit from this painting...
This painting can inspire painters who have been stuck at the third or even fourth level for a long time, and there is a high probability of gaining insights.
It can be said to be a national treasure - with this painting, Avalon has the inheritance of the fifth level of the path of beauty.
This is undoubtedly a generous gift.
...But if Aiwass was only allowed to send it back, he wouldn't worry about Isabel's safety.
They went out shopping this time to hide their identities and relax, so naturally they did not bring any entourage, servants or guards.
Only at this time will I miss the surveillance of the camera master Yannis.
But she has left now. Unless she suddenly misses her friends in Avalon, she might come back to take a look through those portraits.
And based on Yanis's free and easy personality, I'm afraid she won't come back for a long, long time.
Seeing Isabel who was a little disappointed because she couldn't go shopping, Aiwass couldn't bear it.
Especially since Isabel is still using Yulia's appearance and wearing that kitten face, this makes Aiwass doubly unbearable.
He suddenly spoke, trying to distract Isabel: "Have you decided what to name it? Master Yanis doesn't seem to have named this painting."
"Shall I come?"
Isabel was a little surprised.
"Of course," Aiwass said with a smile while holding the painting, "You can't let me name it, right? You are a real 'all-rounder'."
I don't know what she thought of, but Isabel's originally a little disappointed mood suddenly became high, and she said enthusiastically: "Then let me do it! Let me think about it..."
Aiwass's strategy was successful.
Isabel, who used the appearance of "Yulia", kept her brows furrowed and thinking intently until she returned to the Palace of Silver and Tin.
Isabel's disguise is really good.
Aiwass stared at her profile and couldn't help but think in his mind.
There's probably no chance for a walk today...but tomorrow is the Candle Festival, which is quite lively. You can still go out and relax.
If Isabel can skillfully use the "painting skin" remade for her by Master Yannis, then even if she goes out to play by herself, Aiwass won't have to worry about her having an accident.
"Yes!"
Isabel suddenly gently tugged on the corner of Aiwass' clothes and came closer.
She said seriously, word for word: "Just call it..."Be With Me."
Aiwass was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
He soon realized why Isabel was named like that, so he laughed helplessly.
In addition to the friendship between Yanis and Sophia... it was also because Aiwass said to her just this morning those words that Isabel remembered deeply and could not forget.
