"Isabel...do you like Aiwass?"

Shafiya asked seriously.

For the first time, Shafiya did not address Isabel as your highness.

Because at this moment, she regards Isabel as her descendant...even as her own child.

Isabel was also keenly aware of this level.

She closed her eyes gently, caressed her chest, closed her eyes and whispered softly: "Yes."

The past flowed through Isabel's heart, and just thinking about it made her heart warm.

"When...when did it start?"

Shafiya asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, Isabel paused slightly and opened her eyes wide.

……yes.

Speaking of which, when did I fall in love with Aiwass...

Was it when he freed himself from the succubus' control? Was it when he helped him get through the death of his grandmother?

Is it because he helped him solve the death curse that has plagued the royal family for more than ten years?

Or is it because he changed his personality and made friends with him...

...No, none of them.

Isabel thought of the magic painting she painted for Aiwass.

She had already fallen in love with him long before these things happened. But she didn't realize it at that time...

——Now that I think about it carefully, when I remember this name so deeply that I can no longer forget it... it was at the very beginning.

It was the very first promotion ceremony... when no one thought they could pass the level safely, and even Teacher Yanis just wanted to give herself a failure experience.

But he praised himself from the bottom of his heart, "Thanks to you" and "amazing".

He said the handsome words "I will save Avalon and this world from danger" without any hesitation.

When she said, "You don't have to save me," he refused without hesitation.

He saved himself and Sherlock. Then he took a knife and died silently outside.

——Just to die in the house, "Lulu will be scared."

Maybe it was at that moment.

Isabel felt a strong "temperature".

It was like a person who was about to freeze in the cold wind was exposed to the warm sunshine. She was almost in tears.

She was so greedy for that warmth, but she had no way of noticing it. Because she subconsciously chose to avoid it, and it wasn't until a long time later that she understood her heart.

Although she said things like "You don't have to save me" and "I'll just die", she just hoped that someone would come to save her.

Her heart was crying "Who can save me" and "Who can accompany me".

But after receiving no response for a long time, these voices could only echo helplessly in my heart.

——Until she met Aiwass.

Being so greedy for the temperature of the sun... Once you come into contact with it, you can never let it go. That is the most poisonous and addictive thing in the world.

hope.

If she had never had hope, she could have endured all this. But if she felt that confidence, strength, gentleness and burning eyes, she would never be able to go back to that cold wind again.

"From the very beginning."

Isabel opened her eyes and replied firmly: "I fell in love with him."

Not because of what he has done for himself, nor because of how handsome and outstanding he is.

It's because his soul has been attracting him from the very beginning - without any reason.

There may be many people suitable for him, but there is only one person suitable for him. Only Aiwass can save his soul.

"...Do you know what love is?"

When Shafiya heard this, she couldn't help but laugh: "You are still so young... you have never been exposed to anything."

The moment she heard this, Isabel said without hesitation what Aiwass said only once, but which she kept firmly in her heart: "Two hearts that are not the same, two souls that have not yet overlapped,

They are just two finely carved gems. When they are overlapped and pointed at the sun, and rotated slightly, they can reflect thousands of different brilliance on the wall..."

This is something Isabel would never dare to say in front of Aiwass.

But now in front of Shafiya - in front of this simulated Shafiya, she can say what she wants to say without any scruples: "Two people reflect each other, and the light is better than the stars in the sky. I

I think this is love.

"Yes, I love him."

"...That's it."

Shafiya looked at her and nodded with some emotion: "That's right...love is harder to hide than the crime of murder, just like the midday sun shining in the dark night.

"——I will help you, Your Highness Isabel. Once I send you to the Theocracy, I will go back to find him."

"We have been away for so long, will he be in danger?"

"Concern leads to chaos, Your Highness. It has only been two days -"

Shafiya explained helplessly: "The main force is on our side... We have defeated so many enemies among us, how many enemies can go to the Glass Island?"

Two days... They did not take the Griffin, but just arrived at the port and chose the ferry... The enemy's main force gathered here... Aiwass was still on the Glass Island and had no action...

Isabel heard the key words she wanted to know. Her identity was not revealed at all, but she got more information.

So she said goodbye to Shafiya, sat back on the bed and began to think seriously.

In this case, then it should be that two days have passed, it is the night of the third day, and it is the early morning of the fourth day.

So many things happened in the middle, but he was not exposed at all. This shows that the ritual is probably still running normally, but they briefly lost control. If he was the only one who lost control at that time, Aiwass still retained his sanity, he

I will definitely leave some backup for myself to help explain.

Thinking of the dream I had...

I'm afraid it's not that I lost my memory, but that there was something wrong with the promotion ceremony.

As an extraordinary person on the path of beauty, Isabel trusts her intuition very much.

……broken.

Isabel's heart skipped a beat.

She made an agreement with Aiwass to arrive at the Theocracy at dusk the next day, and Aiwass would complete the Shadow of Avalon ritual before then.

If everyone skipped the middle two days... then half a day has passed since the agreed time for the ceremony. Has Aiwass done the Shadow of Avalon ceremony?

Now they have no communication at all. Not to mention that there is no way to make a phone call on the ship, and she doesn't know where Aiwass is now.

Although he was accompanied by Sherlock...

But that Sherlock is the enemy!

Just when Isabel fell into a slight panic, she suddenly heard sharp and hysterical ridicule.

——The identity of someone who was promoted was discovered by the "aboriginal people"!

Isabel realized this immediately.

But based on this, she quickly thought of another point.

Could this person be Sherlock?

No, impossible.

Mr. Consultant seems very shrewd. If everyone skipped the middle two days, he might be panicked at first, but he should soon become calm again.

Based on his character, if he is with Aiwass, he should not betray. He is a quite old-fashioned and proud person. With "Bishop Moriarty" as a priest, he should become a protector.

Because he could not allow himself to stand behind a healer.

Considering this point, Aiwass would not kill him immediately.

Isabel's brain was spinning and she was quickly analyzing everyone's character.

She is not very clear about things at the logical level, but she can see through the essence of everyone. The main task she did this time was the trials of "acting".

From this point on, she can put herself in everyone's shoes and think about what the other person should do.

——What if I were Aiwass?

This thought suddenly came to Isabel's mind.

If I were Aiwass, what would I do?

She suddenly felt an unusual stimulation - not even based on life or death or crisis, but based on "understanding" and "love".
To be continued...
