Chapter 66: The Covenant of February 16
Ivus always found Morgan's smile unsettling.
But intuitively, he really didn't feel malice...... And in the game, Morgan is a friendly NPC. Not only did she never enter the book, but she even served as a teammate in the copy of the Raider Shadow Tensi.
For this alone, Ivas has a relatively basic level of trust in her.
And Morgan, who is also a fairy in the lake, is obviously much more normal than Vivien's personality - at least Morgan is not ruthless enough to kill the person he loves.
Vivien has a strong seeker obsession. Her love is wholehearted, but at the same time, she has a strong sense of purpose. When she falls in love with someone, she will kill or get rid of her distractions again. So that you can love the next person wholeheartedly.
And Morgan's obsession and desire on the path of love are not as strong as Vivien's. She has the adaptability of other paths, and the path of love is only the happiest and most suitable path for her.
She prefers a freewheeling lifestyle to an upgrade.
That's why she's always showing mercy, but not staying in the same place for long...... is diametrically opposed to Vivian's earnestness of letting herself love wholeheartedly - as long as she likes each other, even if it is only the first time they meet, she will eagerly pursue each other, trying to be a lover with her heart and soul for a few nights; But before you really fall in love with each other, you will leave decisively and cut off all contact information.
Abbreviated as running after fishing.
Even the silver-crowned dragon ran the same.
So unlike Vivian, Morgan is very famous in the material world. Whether it was Vivian, Circe, Isis, or Medea, they were all very dangerous apostles...... On a physical level alone, Morgan is the only fairy who is harmless to the human body.
Morgan simply enjoyed that "short and unforgettable love." It's better to be in a state where the two of them never see each other again after one night β maybe a chance encounter in another place decades later, and then get up again and do it again. But she will never live a comfortable and peaceful life with others.
However, after being loved for a short time by such a gentle, beautiful and mature perfect goddess, it is basically difficult to look at mortals in the material world anymore. Many people will even go crazy looking for Morgan...... Legend has it that if you accept Morgan's courtship, your heart will be taken away. Later, the rumors of this evil sect spread and became the notoriety of witches, spreading from "Morgan" to all witches.
But in a sense, this notoriety is not outrageous.
- Because the "love elixir" that Ivus seized before was the potion invented by Morgan.
It's a magic potion that can make people really fall in love with another person - when Morgan can't ask for it, she will decisively drug it, and she will never waste her feelings and time.
And the "gift" she gave with a bad taste......
Eivers' expression was a little complicated.
He shook his head, and when he returned to the Queen's study, he saw Sherlock in a youthful state.
"Yo, here we go."
Ivas stood in the doorway, smiling and beckoning to Sherlock, "Long time no see, Detective." It's good that you're not dead. β
"-poof."
Isabel couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Seeing Ewass's somewhat puzzled gaze, her silver bell-like laughter grew louder and louder. The whole person was laughing and laughing.
Sherlock clutched his forehead, helpless and silent.
- That's why I didn't recognize it in the first place!
It can only be said that Isabel has indeed grasped the essence of Ivus......
Ivas walked over, and with some dissatisfaction, he stretched out his hands from behind to hug Isabel's face, pinched her soft cheeks in her "whining" voice, and pulled out a smile: "What are you laughing at?" β
"Your Majesty was imitating you just now, and I didn't recognize it at the first time."
Sherlock summed it up briefly: "Because these two sentences she said when she met. β
Ivas snorted twice, rubbed Isabelle's face vigorously, and then retreated behind Sherlock who was sitting in his chair, his elbow pressed against his shoulder, pressing the weight of his upper body, "Lulu, you're getting more and more cheerful. β
"Don't like it?" Isabel asked rhetorically.
"Of course I do."
Ivus replied earnestly, "You still look good with a smile." β
Some people like to see girls cry, but he prefers to see them laugh.
Isabel smiled and stretched out the index fingers of two fingers and pulled a shallow smile on her face: "Then I will laugh more." β
Sherlock gave Ivus a blank look at his elbow, signaling that it was a little heavy.
Ivus switched sides and pressed his forearm against his other shoulder.
This way the shoulder will hurt more symmetrically.
"What's the rank?"
Ivus asked, looking down at Sherlock.
Without a beginning or an end, Sherlock understood what Ivas meant.
He smiled reservedly and said calmly and melodiously: "That's naturally the first ...... Gold characteristic. β
"Yes, it's you."
Eivers praised: "It's good that we weren't in the same game, otherwise it would have been difficult for you to get first. β
"Tsk......"
This broken fox.
Sherlock smacked his lips, but didn't refute Ivace's words.
"Hey, I only took the purple one."
Isabel complained, "But it's okay, it's the most crucial [cunning spell]. β
"[Cunning Spell] is more practical to you than a lot of gold. This is not a loss. β
Ivus reassured, "In terms of expectation, the Cunning Spell can increase the effect of the spell by nearly half. Most gold perks have a hard time getting this boost.
"What specialization did you choose compared to that?"
There is only one advanced profession for "all-rounders", and that is "artist". It is also the first and most core profession of the path of beauty.
The transcendent professions of the other paths are basically detailed from the very beginning. But the path of beauty is different...... The path of beauty began as an "artist", but considering that one's energy has a limit, inspiration is even more limited. That's why it has diverged into other professions.
And every time the artist advances, he can specialize in one field that is "adjacent to the mastered field".
"I chose 'actors.'"
Isabel replied simply, "Now when I imitate others, even the power of the path can be imitated. For example......
As she spoke, she became Ivus.
"Aihuas" smiled slyly and slowly crossed his legs: "If a cardinal of the fifth rank looks at me now, he will only think that I have a path of dedication of the fourth rank. If I get stronger, I can still imitate your extraordinary abilities. β
As he spoke, he held out his hand. A flame ignited from the tip of the middle finger of his right hand.
But Ivas knew that Isabel didn't have a fire-attribute mana pool.
So this flame is also an illusion.
Ivas walked over and patted "Ivus" on the forehead. There was only a crisp snapping sound, and I watched "Ihuas" cry out and hug his head, but he didn't change back into Isabel.
He was a little surprised: "Now that he is attacked, won't the illusion be shattered?" β
"Illusion of Resilience! My newfound abilities can be maintained as long as I can hold on to my illusions. β
Isabel changed back and said with some dissatisfaction: "However, it still hurts......"
It turns out that the "Illusion of Resilience" can still have this effect......
It was then that Ivus really realized that these entries were not exactly the same as the in-game version. The "characteristics of the path" itself have the possibility of further digging, and it is not only that it is expressed in words.
"My last field is whether I want to be a 'screenwriter' or a singer. Both of these are adjacent fields to 'actors,'" Isabel asked seriously, "Do you have any comments?" β
"Whatever you want."
Aihuas smiled: "You can choose if you want." β
"I'm serious about you!"
"I'm also serious about answering."
Ivas restrained his smile and said very seriously, "Now I can tell you too-
"It's fast, maybe a few months, it's a year at most. The upper limit of the energy level of this world will be raised.
"At that time, the world ceiling will no longer be the sixth energy level of the Eternal Pope, but the seventh energy level. The original fifth energy level will be progressed to the sixth energy level one after another, and the eternal pope of the sixth energy level will reach the seventh energy level.
"Soon, there will be changes on the side of the church. Immediately after that, everyone's level up speed will increase rapidly, and then there will be an eighth energy level, or even a ninth energy level......"
ββ¦β¦ Really. β
Sherlock muttered under his breath.
When he was inaugurated as a Mithra, he felt that Ewass had something to say. The sixth level is far from the end of this path of promotion for Mithraic worshippers...... By the time he reached the sixth energy level, he was only a middle-aged man. It's still far from becoming an old man or even rejuvenating.
Sure enough, Ivas knew this from the very beginning.
But these things should not be known by anyone. Ivus was not a prophet, and even a prophet could not see that far into the futureβand the future that a prophet saw would be disturbed and unclear if there were a higher presence in it.
Ivas knew it so clearly, it was like ......
β¦β¦ He'd been through the same before.
Hearing this, Sherlock suddenly thought of the "Reincarnation Celestial Division" that Isabel had said earlier.
He made bold assumptions.
- Is it possible that Ivas was reborn from the future of another world line?
That's why he knows so many secrets inexplicably, and his actions are so urgent and effective. That's why he didn't see any joy when he reached the fourth energy level, and he didn't have any smugness and pride in becoming a minister. Obviously he had stepped on the top of the world at a young age, but it was as if something was chasing him......
Sherlock looked up at Ivos's jaw, throat, and pursed lips.
The bizarre, out of nowhere, pressures from Eivers...... Did it come from here?
Future...... What's going on?
The fever-like curiosity haunted Sherlock's mind.
After leaving the Temple of Silver and Tin, he locked himself in his study, and began to work on the logic of his actions by consulting a large number of materials and sorting out the various actions of Ehuas. Trying to deduce what is really going on in the future.
- You may be able to ask directly...... No, yes, I can definitely ask. Now that Ivas has already talked about this, there is naturally no need to hide the rest of it.
But Sherlock was dismissive.
Anyway, if Ivus didn't say it, he could guess it himself.
Compared with solving the case, "decryption of the future" made him feel the irrepressible charm of the devil. If you ask for the answer directly, it will be boring.
After Sherlock left, Ivus sat directly in Isabel's seat. Let her sit on her lap.
The two whispered, and Isabel told Ivus exactly what she had heard. And Ivas also told Isabel what happened on his side.
It's not just what you hear and do.
Even what she had thought before was told how she had insight and how he believed it.
But both of them tacitly did not mention the previous agreement...... The promise for the night of February 16th.
- because there was no waiting for the evening at all.
As soon as I came out of the promotion ceremony, the spirit of excitement, as well as the recognition, trust and emotion generated by the "tacit understanding", seemed to have a magical force, and turned into a strong glue. The two kept whispering about their trust in each other, and the hug became tighter and tighter. from facing away to straddle sitting; From the initial snuggling to hugging and then to deep kissing.
When the lips parted, Isabel's cheeks turned crimson from a brief suffocation.
She's still easily shy. The body is red all the way to the neck and collarbones.
"I have a gift for you tonight."
Aihuas's voice became a little hoarse and muffled, and it rang in Isabel's ears: "That's my soul...... The wine made. β
As he spoke, he bowed his head again and kissed Isabel softly.
"So, until then......"
Ivus asked in a low voice.
Isabel didn't respond, just hugged Ivus tightly. Gently rubbed his neck and earlobes against Ivus's neck.
So, Ivas understood.
He picked Isabel up and carried the feverish Isabel back to Her Majesty's bedroom under the astonishing, surprised and "I know" eyes of the maids and the Queen's guards.
It wasn't until Iwass put her on her bed that Isabel seemed to come to her senses.
"Wait, it's good to ...... at night"
She covered her face shyly, then hugged the pillow tightly, blocked her face, and said sullenly: "It's still daytime......"
"Because I want to see you more."
As he spoke, Ivas moved his knees and knelt before the Queen, "My Honourable Queen......"
He stepped forward and firmly and gently removed the pillow that Isabel had to cover her face.
As an artist who has obtained the field of "actor" in the fourth level, Isabel's body is no longer as weak as it used to be. But her resistance was so weak, as if she was drunk, and her fingers became weak because of it.
Moriarty ...... You ......"
Isabel's soft voice murmured like a dream, "We haven't had lunch yet...... I also prepared good wine......"
The midday sun shone on Isabel and made her look like she was glowing.
Ivus took off his coat and set it aside. Then he slowly unbuttoned Isabel's clothes little by little.
He said calmly and gently, "You can save it for the evening and drink together."
"βwe can also play until the evening."
