“…… How did you do that? ”

After Oswald checked Yulia's condition and confirmed that she was indeed healed and that the illusion in her body was gone, he half-knelt in front of Yulia and whispered an exclamation: "This is a miracle. ”

"I guess everyone has some little secret, doesn't they?"

Ivas sat in his wheelchair and chuckled behind Oswald's back.

Oswald had lived in the human world for at least five hundred years, and it was difficult for Evas to fool him.

It's better to just say "I don't want to tell you". Anyway, the message is the same in the end, so it's more friendly.

Surprisingly, Oswald was satisfied with Ehuas's answer.

The old elf got up and put his hands behind his back. His countenance, as old as an ancient tree, showed a somewhat stiff but sincere smile.

It looks like a wolf with a cracked mouth.

"Of course, Master Aivas. Everyone can have their own secrets. ”

Oswald nodded slightly and sighed, "It's good that you've grown up." If the old man is still around, he should be very happy. ”

"What the hell did Father do?"

Ivus asked seriously, "It's been a long time since he's been seen." I also heard some ......"

"Not so good, right?"

The old elf continued.

Ivas nodded, "I've heard that my father may be in danger. But he left without his contact information, and I can't confirm if that's true......"

Yulia on the side hugged her puppet "Mr. Dad", and crooked her hair in a puzzled voice: "Danger? ”

Oswald sighed softly.

He avoided answering the question, and instead said to Evas, "You can now take Miss Yulia to school."

"I think this is what you've been waiting for for a long time."

"That's true......"

Yulia replied softly.

But she asked with some concern, "Did something happen?" ”

The girl is very perceptive and intelligent. Even if he lacks the corresponding life experience, he can realize what the old butler Oswald is worried about at the moment just by being familiar with his family.

"Because I'm going on a long trip, miss. Avalon can be chaotic during this time, so you should be safer staying in your dorm. ”

Oswald patiently explained.

"You're going to go far too?"

Ivus raised an eyebrow, and then quickly realized what he was going to do: "You want to go to your father?" ”

"That's right."

Oswald replied honestly: "Actually, I received the news of the master's death from official sources. But I didn't believe it - I firmly believed that he wasn't dead. ”

"Do you have any way of getting in touch?" Ivas asked.

"Almost," Oswald nodded, "As the guardian of the Moriarty family, I can sense the general direction of each 'Moriarty' at any time. If it's close enough, I'll be able to check the status of the other person. ”

In this way, he had just used this ability when he had just analyzed Yulia's body.

Ivus was stunned.

Oswald obviously didn't know much about healing, and he didn't dedicate his healing powers. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been Ivus' turn to treat Yulia.

But the old butler only touched Yulia's forehead slightly, and he sensed that the illusion in her body had indeed been eradicated.

This should be the reason why Oswald was able to find Ivas in time when he was taken to the alley to be sacrificed.

"I sensed that the master's position was constantly moving. It was slow, but he didn't stop for long. ”

Oswald muttered, "Although it is also possible that the body is being carried...... But there's even a way back. So I'm wondering, could it be that the master is being detained and being transferred? Or did the professor choose to fake his death in order to expose some people, to secretly investigate something?

"But in any case, I think the lord is in danger at the moment. There's a good chance he'll need my help right now. ”

At this point, Oswald looked at Yulia, "But at the same time, I must protect you, and it is my duty to do the same.

"Young Master Edward doesn't need to be taken care of anymore. The University of Law was the domain of the Grand Arbiter, and it was home to the descendants of two-thirds of the Knight family, many of whom patrolled at night. Therefore, Master Aihuas, you don't need to worry.

"But Miss Yulia is the only one...... Previously, as an illusory egg, she had to hide her identity. Therefore, she can't go to school with you, so she can only use her health as an excuse to stay out of the house every day. ”

With that, Oswald looked at Yulia.

She sat with the puppet in her arms, her eyes wide open. Her eyes seemed to be shining, which was her excitement and anticipation.

As she wished.

Oswald declared, "If I stay at home, I can indeed protect Miss Yulia, because Miss Yulia has nowhere to go." I was the only one who could protect her.

"But now that Miss Yulia is no longer an illusion egg and can go somewhere else, I must now fulfill another of my duties - I'm very sorry, Miss."

"It's all right, Mr. Oswald."

Yulia said seriously: "I also want to go to school with my brother!" ”

Aihuas thought of something else, and asked on the side, "Who are the people who know that Yulia is the Illusory Egg?" ”

"Even though the Lord had been buying the Hypnos Potion, no one had clear evidence that Miss Yulia was the Egg of the Illusion. So you can claim that she had to use the decoction of Hypnos only because of a strange illness, and that she has now been cured under the treatment of Bishop Mathers. ”

Oswald patiently taught Ivas to speak, though he didn't need to teach Ivas well: "If someone asks Miss Yulia why she never comes to school, you can say that she is withdrawn and reluctant to see people. That way, your secrets won't be revealed. ”

"I'll pretend to be withdrawn!"

Yulia raised a hand and said seriously: "I will never reveal my brother's secret!" ”

Ivus touched his chin.

In other words, Yulia is most likely the Phantom Egg, and almost everyone in the upper social circles of the kingdom knows about it. It's just that they chose to remain silent about this matter because of Professor Moriarty's relationship.

…… Strange, am I overlooking something?

Ivas always felt that there was something incongruous here.

If the adoptive father adopted him and Yulia because he had no biological children, he needed an adopted son to inherit the family business......

So Yulia, as the egg of the illusion, theoretically doesn't live long. Why did Professor Moriarty adopt her?

However, Oswald left the matter for the time being...... There can be some good and some bad.

The upside is that it's easier to bring out the Lloyd's guys. Ivus's plan to fake his death will also become stronger.

But in that case, Ivus would need to find a stronger protector for Yulia. It was difficult for Edward to protect Yulia on his own, and it was even difficult to take care of her daily life.

Unlike Ivus, Lily was able to accompany Ivus to school because of Ivus's special physical condition. This was specially approved by Her Royal Highness the Princess.

However, Yulia apparently couldn't bring her valet with her. Her maid must remain in Moriarty Manor.

While Ivas and Lily are both there, Lily can help take care of Yulia together. But when Ivas faked his death, Lily was going to fake his death with Ivus - that meant that Yulia would become a person.

Even if the security level in the school was good enough, Ivas still couldn't rest assured of her.

At this moment, the shadow of another person appeared in Aihuas's mind.

Princess Isabel.

She should be able to help with that.

"And when are you going to leave?"

Ivas asked Oswald.

The old butler replied, "If you can, the sooner the better." ”

"Then Yulia will come with us. That being the case, we need to get ready to go back to school now. ”

Ivus nodded, and turned back to Yulia to explain, "There is no railroad in the middle of the Red and White Queens, so Lily pushed me directly through the ...... Fortunately, it is not very far away, and it takes about two hours to walk. Find a place to rest in the middle, it takes about three hours to get to the ......"

"On that note," Oswald added, "it would be less of a hassle.

"You're in a wheelchair that was a little deformed from the attack. Although it has been repaired since then, it will look somewhat undignified. So I used your body information to find an elf craftsman I knew to order a new wheelchair, which has improved comfort and functionality, and also hid a miniature pistol for body protection inside, and built in a candle emblem that is convenient for casting magic skills.

"It's now been put in the Inspectorate by me. You can take the bus directly to the inspectorate, ask Lily to pick up a wheelchair and take you back to school. Later, when you go home, you can go straight back by car. There is also a spare wheelchair at home. ”

“…… I'm sorry for you. ”

Ivas was a little apologetic: "But in fact, my body is recovering well, and it may take another half a month to a month to recover my health." ”

In half a month, the final exam will be held, and it will also be the second promotion ceremony of Aihuas's dedication path.

Until then, Eivers will have to solve the problem of Lloyd's. This would allow Sherlock to emerge from suspended animation.

And after the promotion, they will go to Haina's hometown together. It is definitely inconvenient to use a wheelchair on dirt roads in the countryside and in the mountains and old forests...... So when the time comes, Eivers can't pretend anymore.

It just so happened that Lily would follow Ivus at that time, and the Shadow Fiend would be able to store it in her shadow. By the time the winter break is over, Ivus's transcendence path will be able to advance again - by which time Ivas will truly be out of his wheelchair.

In other words...... Oswald's custom-made wheelchair will be used for less than a month. This is also the reason why Ivas did not propose to change to a wheelchair before.

Although his family is not short of money now, he still subconsciously thinks that he can save it.

"Just because your legs are good doesn't mean you can't sit. Those elderly people in wheelchairs, they may not be unable to walk. ”

Oswald smiled and said, "It's easy to ignore your threat in a wheelchair; A priest with bad legs, even if it is rumored to be very romantic, people will think that he is an ascetic. Humans are always hostile to the strong. But if the strong have weaker places than them, then it is easy to turn into admiration. ”

Hearing this, Ivas subconsciously felt a little weak.

…… He always felt that the old butler meant something.

And he may be referring to more than just one thing.
