Chapter 53: Ehuas: I like it very much
Avalon is an island nation, and the Temple of Silver and Tin on the glass island of the capital city was built on an island within an island.
In front of the Avalon Bridge, which leads to the Temple of Silver and Tin, the old elf with skin like tree bark and oily green pupils like wild wolves stood straight. The tall, thin and straight figure looks like a tree on a winter night.
"I'll be here."
The old butler commanded the maid Lily, "Take care of Master Ewass. โ
"Yes, Mr. Oswald."
Lily replied respectfully.
Under the watchful eye of the old butler, she pushed Ivace's wheelchair up the bridge.
The sun sinks early in early winter. The deep blue night sky is not yet dark, and the sapphire lake is beautifully shimmering in the street lamps on both sides of the bridge.
The tall white griffons, like stone lions, settle quietly on the stone platforms on either side of the streetlights at night.
As Ivas passed, from time to time a white griffon opened its eyes and looked at him. Their pupils are as red or blue as jewels, crystal clear and reflect the color of the light.
Their pure white feathers reflected the orange-yellow glow of the street lamps, shining with divine brilliance.
"It's so pretty......"
The girl with long flaxen-colored curly hair is also here for the first time.
She was so immersed in the beauty of the spectacle that she couldn't help but say, "Let me think of your eyes." โ
โโฆโฆ What did you say? โ
Evas, who was suddenly provoked, was a little unresponsive for a while: "Griffins? โ
But Lily was not shy, but just said as a matter of course: "I'm talking about the color of this lake, which is very similar to the color of Young Master Ivas's eyes." โ
"That's right."
When Ivus heard this, he also looked around the griffons and looked at the lake reflected in the nightlight: "I didn't pay much attention...... When you say that, it's a bit similar. โ
Hearing this, the griffons on both sides of the bridge let out a low, good-natured laugh.
Lily was startled to realize that these white griffons could understand human speech.
Her cheeks flushed and she didn't dare to speak again. Just pushing the wheelchair with his head down.
As this meeting was not an official meeting and did not require a meeting with Her Majesty, the head of the royal family did not need to come forward. Guided by a valet, Lily led Ivas to the side hall.
The Temple of Silver and Tin is always brightly lit. Even the side hall where the royal heirs lived.
Even if there are no heirs left in the royal family, and even one-tenth of the rooms in the side hall are not enough, the lights must be lit in all the rooms. This is to give the residents of the Red and White Queens a sight and peace of mind โ to tell them that the Queen is always with them.
And when Ivas arrived, a sumptuous dinner was ready.
All dishes are served on the table rather than slowly as if they were eaten at home.
At a glance, Ivas saw that the dinner consisted of grilled freshwater fish, fried cod sticks, breaded frog legs, lamb stewed with turnips, lemon oysters, and a few crispy roast pigeons.
There's also a seafood soup of clams, razor clams and shrimp, and a double ice cream of herbs and pineapple. Almost all of Ivus's favorite dishes. At first glance, it is almost entirely meat and seafood, and the only thing that can be considered green is a strange spinach cake.
โฆโฆ Don't little princesses like vegetables?
A question crossed Ivus's mind.
But soon, his doubts were explained:
"Here's what I heard, Mr. Ewass's favorite dish."
Princess Isabel, who was sitting at the table, looked at Ewass. Her eyes, as beautiful as the finest emeralds, reflected the brilliance of silver cutlery, shining with the colors of joy and anticipation: "I don't know if you like it?" โ
She wore a crown of flowers on her head and a pearl necklace around her white neck. There was also a small rose carved from citrine on that necklace. The pure white off-the-shoulder gown has turquoise leaf embellishments reminiscent of nature. She folded her hands on her lap and smiled softly.
She was so beautiful, her waist-length light blonde hair was naturally draped, and it seemed to sparkle in the light. Like the temple of silver and tin shining in the midday sun.
So much so that Lily couldn't help but hold her breath, shocked by the sheer clarity and beauty.
Perhaps because of the quarter-elf hybrid, Princess Isabel seemed a little younger than her actual age - she was nineteen years old, but she seemed younger than Iwas.
It seems that Miss Yulia is only a little older. Lily thought to herself.
Princess Isabel has a very slender waist, but the curve of her chest is not very noticeable...... Even a little younger than fifteen-year-old Miss Yulia.
That's probably the only flaw in this beauty. Or rather, it is precisely because of the blurring of the meaning of sex and confusion that this beauty is so pure.
Even Ivas held his breath for a moment.
It was also the first time he had met Princess Isabel. Although I have known her beauty for a long time and have seen her model in the game, it may be because of the influence and bonus of the path of beauty...... In reality, she is far more "beautiful" than that.
โโฆโฆ I like it very much. โ
Sitting quietly in a wheelchair, Ivas replied from the bottom of his heart, "Thank you very much for your accommodation and care, Your Highness Princess.
"I was just blown away by your beauty and couldn't respond to your question right away. If there is any rudeness, please bear with me. โ
"Then please eat quickly, Mr. Evas."
Princess Isabel just smiled and urged.
She was only a little surprised, and when she looked at Ewas, she really didn't have the timidity and nervousness in her heart when she came into contact with strangers...... It's as if you already know him.
- It turns out that I hugged Ivus when I was a child, and it really works!
Then she immediately remembered that Ivas had lost his parents at such a young age.
According to Mr. Sherlock's reasoning, Ivus's biological parents must have lured the Iron Hook Demon to save Ivus's life. The tragic overtones of the story saddened her.
Although it may have nothing to do with her, or maybe she is too involved in the drama - Isabel seems to have a maternal glow in her body: "Let's talk while we eat, Mr. Ivas." I must be hungry all the way......"
Suddenly, she heard a soft 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 reversed the subject, and hurriedly added, "Also, my teacher Janis would like to participate in this dinner party, if you want to." โ
โฆโฆ What a blunt twist.
Was it reminded?
"โof course."
Evas obediently picked up his knife and fork and replied with a smile, "I have admired Master Janis for a long time. โ
"Oh?"
A voice with a mature charm whispered: "Have you also seen my work?" โ
The elf, who looked to be less than thirty years old, had both the mature charm of a woman and the innocence of a girl, and unconsciously appeared at the table. Sitting closer to Ivus than the princess, he looked at the white-blond-haired boy with interest.
Janis is tall and slender, with cream-colored curls and oblique bangs that block one eye. Her eyes were the same emerald green as Princess Isabel's, and she was only a finger shorter than Eivasโa pure-blood elf just by looking at her height and graceful straight back.
It was as if she had been here since the very beginning, except that Ivas had not noticed her; It was as if she was just a projection of being "painted", which seemed a little illusory under the reflection of the lights.
Ivas immediately realized that this was a "reflection in the painting". It is an extraordinary ability that can only be acquired after the profession of "Painter" is level 40 and advanced to "Art Master".
The artist can get a part of the power of the twin mirrors, and thus use the painting as a mirror. He can hide his true body in paintings, walk freely in paintings, and reflect his projections in reality, appearing wherever paintings exist.
Let the real become false, and the false become true.
Turning reality and painting into a mirror of her own twin lives.
The Nine Great Avenues all have the ability to teleport along the way, but the "Reflection in the Picture" is the lowest level and the least expensive of them all.
In the current version, the reflection teleportation of the path of beauty is the only means of teleportation.
It's no wonder that Master Janis has traveled all over the world. She can teleport at will, let alone a mortal...... Even the transcendent had no chance of stopping her.
"โof course."
In the presence of Master Janis himself, Ivas was undaunted and spoke: "Whether it is 'Homage to the Temple of Akpolis', or 'Golden Dawn' and 'Crystal Sea', I like it very much. โ
I haven't seen it though...... But you listen slowly to me to give you the cloud.
Ivus added in his mind.
