Avalon is an island country, and the Palace of Silver and Tin in the Capital Glass Island is built on an island within an island.
In front of the Avalon Bridge leading to the Palace of Silver and Tin, an old elf with skin like tree bark and green eyes like a wild wolf stood upright. The tall and thin figure looked like a tree in the winter night.
.
"I'll send it here."
The old housekeeper ordered the maid Lily: "Take good care of Master Aiwass."
"Yes, Mr. Oswald."
Lily responded respectfully.
Under the watch of the old housekeeper, she pushed Aiwass's wheelchair onto the bridge.
The sun sets very early in early winter. The deep blue night sky is not yet completely dark, and the sapphire-like lake shows extremely beautiful waves under the reflection of the street lights on both sides of the bridge.
The tall white griffons are like stone lions. When night falls, they quietly land on the stone platforms on both sides of the street lamps.
When Aiwas passed by, white griffons would open their eyes and look at him from time to time. Their pupils were as red or blue as gems, crystal clear and reflecting the color of the light.
Their pure white feathers reflect the orange light of the street lights, shining with divine brilliance.
"It's so beautiful..."
The girl with long flaxen curly hair is also here for the first time.
She was immersed in this beautiful scene and couldn't help but say: "It reminds me of your eyes."
"……What did you say?"
Aiwass, who was suddenly teased, didn't react for a moment: "Gryphons?"
But Lily was not shy, she just said matter-of-factly: "I'm talking about the color of this lake. It's very similar to the color of Master Aiwass' eyes."
"That's it."
After hearing this, Aiwass also turned his gaze around the griffons and looked at the lake reflected in the night light: "I didn't even pay much attention... When you said that, it does seem a bit like it."
Hearing this, the griffons on both sides of the bridge let out bursts of low, good-natured laughter.
Lily was shocked when she realized that these white griffons could actually understand human speech.
Her cheeks suddenly turned red and she didn't dare to speak anymore. She just lowered her head and pushed the wheelchair.
Because this meeting was not an official meeting and did not require a meeting with Her Majesty the Queen, the royal steward did not need to appear. Under the guidance of a male servant, Lily took Aiwass to the side hall.
The Palace of Silver and Tin is always brightly lit. Even the side hall where the royal heirs live is no exception.
Even if there are not many heirs left in the royal family and even one-tenth of the rooms in the side palace are not occupied, lights must be lit in all the rooms. This is so that the residents of the Red and White Queens District can see it at any time, so that
They are reassured - told that the Queen is always with them.
And when Aiwass arrived, a sumptuous dinner was ready.
All dishes are placed on the table instead of being served slowly like you would at home.
Aiwass saw at a glance that the dinner consisted of grilled freshwater fish that he did not recognize, fried cod strips, fried frog legs wrapped in bread crumbs, lamb stewed with radish, lemon oysters, and a few crispy roasted pigeons.
There are also seafood soup made with clams, razor clams and shrimps, as well as ice cream with vanilla and pineapple. Almost all of them are Aiwass's favorite dishes. At first glance, they are almost all meat and seafood, and only one can be considered green.
A weird spinach cake.
…Don’t the little princess like to eat vegetables?
A doubt arose in Aiwass's mind.
But soon, his doubts were explained:
"This is what I heard about Mr. Aiwass's favorite dish."
Princess Isabel, who was sitting at the table, looked at Aiwass. Her eyes as beautiful as the finest emeralds reflected the brilliance of the silver tableware, shining with the color of joy and expectation: "I wonder if you like it?"
She wears a flower crown on her head and a pearl necklace on her white neck. There is also a small rose carved from citrine on the necklace. The pure white strapless dress has a look that reminds people of nature.
Decorated with green leaves. Her hands were folded on her knees, showing a gentle and generous smile.
She is so beautiful, with her light golden waist-length hair hanging naturally, seeming to sparkle under the light. Just like the palace of silver and tin shining in the midday sun.
So much so that Lily couldn't help but hold her breath, shocked by the pure clarity and beauty.
Perhaps because she is a quarter elf, Princess Isabel appears to be a little younger than her actual age - she is already nineteen years old, but she seems to be younger than Aiwass.
She looks like she is only a little older than Miss Yulia. Lily thought to herself.
Princess Isabel's waist is very slender, but the breast curve is not obvious...it even seems to be a little smaller than the fifteen-year-old Miss Yulia.
This is probably the only shortcoming of this beauty. In other words, it is precisely because of the blurred meaning of sex and confusion that this beauty appears so pure.
Even Aiwass held his breath for a moment.
This was also the first time he saw Princess Isabel. Although he had known her beauty for a long time and had seen her model in the game, perhaps because of the influence and bonus of the path of beauty...she was far away in reality.
It's more "beautiful" than that.
"……I really like it."
Sitting quietly in a wheelchair, Aiwass, who appeared to be gentle, gentle and generous, replied from the bottom of his heart: "Thank you very much for your accommodation and care, Your Royal Highness.
"I was just stunned by your beauty, so I couldn't reply to your question right away. Please forgive me if I'm rude."
"Then please eat quickly, Mr. Aiwass."
Princess Isabel just smiled and urged.
She was just a little surprised to feel that when she looked at Aiwass, she did not feel the timidity and nervousness she felt when coming into contact with a stranger... It was as if she already knew him.
——It turns out that I hugged Aiwass as a child, and it really worked!
Then she immediately thought of it again, Aiwass lost his parents at such a young age.
According to Mr. Sherlock's reasoning, Aiwass' biological parents should have lured away the Hook Demon and saved Aiwass' life. The tragedy of this story made her feel sad.
Although it may have nothing to do with her, or it may be that she is too involved in the drama - Isabel's body seems to be shining with a maternal brilliance: "Let's talk while eating, Mr. Aiwass. I must be hungry after coming all the way.
…”
Suddenly, she heard a slight cough in her ear.
Only then did she suddenly remember that she seemed to have forgotten something!
——That’s what the teacher reminded me beforehand!
So Isabel coughed, forcibly changed the topic, and quickly added: "In addition, my teacher Yanis also hopes to participate in this dinner - if you are willing."
...what a blunt turn.
Were you reminded?
"--certainly."
Aiwass obediently picked up the knife and fork and replied with a smile: "I have also admired Master Yanis for a long time."
"oh?"
A voice with mature charm sounded softly: "Have you also seen my works?"
The elf, who looked as if he was less than thirty years old and had both the mature charm of a woman and the innocence of a girl, appeared at the table unknowingly. He sat closer to Aiwass than the princess, watching with interest.
A boy with platinum hair.
Yanis is tall and slender, with cream-colored curly hair and slanted bangs that cover one eye. Her eye color is the same emerald green as Princess Isabel, and she is only one finger shorter than Aiwass.
- Just by looking at her height and elegant straight back, you can tell that she is undoubtedly a pure-blood elf.
It was as if she had been here from the beginning, but Aiwass didn't notice her; and it seemed as if she was just a "painted" projection, which seemed a bit illusory under the reflection of the light.
Aiwass immediately realized that this was the "reflection in the painting". It was an extraordinary ability that could only be acquired after the "Painter" profession reached level 40 and advanced to the "Art Master" level.
The painter can obtain part of the power of the twin mirror and use the painting as a mirror. He can hide his true body in the painting, walk freely in the painting, and reflect his own projection in reality, appearing wherever the painting exists.
Let the real become false and the false become true.
Turning reality and paintings into her twin mirrors.
There are teleportation abilities along the Nine Avenues, but "Reflection in the Painting" is the lowest level among them and can be obtained at the lowest cost.
In today's version, the reflection teleportation of the Path of Beauty is the only means of teleportation.
It’s no wonder that Master Yanis can travel around the world. She can teleport at will, let alone a mortal... not even an extraordinary person can stop her.
"--certainly."
In front of Master Yanis himself, Aiwass was not afraid and talked about it in detail: "Whether it is "The Temple of Akpolis", or "The Golden Dawn" and "Crystal Sea", I am very fond of it.
like."
Although I haven't seen it...but slowly listen to what I'm telling you.
