Chapter 177 This Can Also Be Considered a Kind of Online Friend-to-Friend Meeting
Going home with the Great Guardian has at least one advantage - that is, you don't have to waste too much time on the way.
Gryphons have a strong load-bearing capacity. Even heavily armed knights can charge at supersonic speeds with them, and even have enough power to protect the knights from being harmed by the wind.
Philip, the gryphon of the Great Guardian, carried the three of them on his back, and also carried Aiwass's wheelchair... He didn't even fly at full strength, and flew them home in a short while.
Aiwass, who was riding a gryphon for the first time, couldn't help but sigh: "Gryphons are indeed very strong..."
It feels like racing at full speed—without the worry of an accident.
No wonder Haina talks about the gryphon that she has yet to receive every day.
George's invitation to Aiwass was a whim. Because of this, David did not know that Aiwass was coming. He didn't even know that Aiwass had come back... so when he saw Aiwass, he was even stunned for a moment.
"Dad, have you rescued Mr. Moriarty?"
David's voice was filled with worry.
The Great Guardian raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.
——You kid, you don’t even have to pretend anymore, right?
If I really rescued Aiwass, then who are you worried about?
"No, I escaped on my own. In other words, she let me go."
Aiwass said gently, climbed down from the gryphon, walked over and sat in the wheelchair.
"Huh?"
David was stunned for a moment: "Are you actually able to walk...?"
"David!"
Feeling that his son was a little rude, George immediately frowned and scolded.
"It's okay, Lord Great Guardian."
Aiwass explained gently and patiently: "Before I was attacked, someone helped me with treatment, the same person who helped me fight off the assassins. I have almost recovered, but I still have some weakness in my legs and difficulty walking. Not very stable... I should be able to regain my health after a while of recovery.
"Before that, she gave me this..."
As he spoke, Aiwass raised his finger.
The flame butterfly on his shoulder flew up automatically and stopped on his finger.
David's eyes widened immediately when he saw such a beautiful little thing.
He came over curiously and stared at it carefully.
He asked cautiously: "Mr. Aiwass...can I touch it?"
"OK."
Aiwass replied simply.
After all, this is just the camouflage shell of the Butterfly of Flames, which can be regarded as her camera. In essence, it is just a flame butterfly with a slightly higher IQ. It is not aggressive and the flame has no temperature at all.
"Thank you, Mr. Aiwass!"
David was very happy, but a little timid.
He carefully touched the flaming butterfly wings, but surprisingly found that they were not hot at all. Instead, waves of warmth flowed into my body... It was like drinking hot water.
"Is this what Aleister gave you too?"
The great guardian on the side asked.
Aiwass shook his head: "No. This is another lady...her name is Flame-Contrary Butterfly."
This can also be regarded as Aiwass's layout.
There is a saying that those people were indeed burned to death by the Flame-Contrary Butterfly, and Aiwass did not lie. Little Butterfly can indeed be called a lady - although calling her that would be calling her too loud.
But in this way, Aiwass can explain why he can walk and escape... It can also explain where he learned the powerful dedication skill of summoning flame butterflies that suddenly appeared.
Unlike Aleister, who could not find any trace at all, there is proof of the existence of the "Flame Butterfly". In the warehouse explosion case, Yulia left behind a flame spirit - which was proof of the existence of the phantom egg.
Now that Yulia is no longer the phantom egg, this is an extra set of evidence for no reason. The Butterfly of Flames can completely be a devotee who can control the power of phantoms, similar to a demon.
Although there is no such profession today, it is hard to say which tantric book contains a similar inheritance. In this world, anything is possible.
In this way, Yulia will not be suspected of being the egg of the phantom at all, and Aiwass will not be suspected of being able to extract the power of the phantom. After all, the warehouse explosion case and the attack on Aiwass were connected, so it was completely reasonable to say that she had conflicts with the Noble Red Society later.
After all, if there is one more Aleister, Noble Red may be able to find out the situation soon; but if there is one more Flame Parading Butterfly, the situation will become complicated. At least it can act as a delay.
"Another lady..."
Hearing this, David suddenly thought of what Aiwass had just said, "She let me go."
He blurted out: "Aleister is a lady... or a miss?"
Hearing this, Aiwass remained calm: "If the lady who took me away was Aleister... I think, yes. And she should be a eldest lady, she might be from Iris. "
At this point, he was already sure in his heart that this child should be the "knight" he had met in his dream.
In fact, when he heard that the other party's real name included "Barton", Aiwass had doubted whether the other party was the child of the Great Guardian.
After all, to be able to get a gryphon as a gift when you were young, you must be at least at the level of a mid-level officer.
But there are many people named Patton, and there are many people with the last name Patton. This is not a particularly rare name. But there is only one person who knows Aleister and thinks that Aleister is a "sir".
Now it seems that Patton is actually the son of St. George!
Then this can also be regarded as a kind of online friend meeting, but it is one-way-Evans knows the other party's identity and vest, but he has no idea of his own identity.
Although Aiwass does not know the family of the Great Guardian St. George, he knows that the whole family of the Great Guardian died in the future. In other words, the future "knight" brother also died in that war of annihilation.
Thinking of this, Aiwass suddenly felt a little guilty.
Speaking of which, it is not a good idea for him to popularize the basic principles and entry methods of the transcendental path to the son of the Great Guardian...
But Aiwass thought about it and chose to forgive himself-it has nothing to do with me anyway.
At that time, I advised him "You can keep this idea, but don't advance to the transcendental path for the time being"! The one who really deceived him was the werewolf of Iris...
Come to think of it, the werewolf seemed to say that he was coming to Avalon.
He should be here soon, right?
Hearing this, Mr. "Knight" was confused and repeated: "Is Alester a young lady? Or an Iris person?"
"That's right," the Great Guardian nodded, "Alester is indeed the surname of the Iris people."
"...So Alester is the surname."
David fell into deep thought and murmured in a low voice: "But she said that she was from Avalon. She said that she was the child of a priest..."
...Hey, he has a deep impression of me.
He can't forget it.
Aiwass raised his eyebrows.
- Is it because my heroic appearance in the iron pot is too handsome?
So Aiwass asked with interest: "Do you know Miss Aleister?"
"Ah, actually we have only met in dreams."
David said a little awkwardly: "She helped me complete the advancement... I am very grateful to her. But she also said that she was a member of Noble Red, so... I didn't trust her very much at the time."
"That's not necessarily the case."
Aiwass shook his head and said softly: "I feel that she doesn't think she is a member of Noble Red."
--He had to make up for it a little bit, and he couldn't say it for sure. If it was really found out that she was not a member of Noble Red, then it could be said that she was pretending to be a member of Noble Red to deceive people.
"So that's the case! That means she might have joined Noble Red for some purpose--"
When David heard this, his eyes lit up first, and then his face became bitter: "So it's all a lie..."
Hearing this, the Great Guardian suddenly looked unhappy.
When David mentioned Aleister before, he didn't say anything. But when David said something like "How could she lie to me" in a wronged tone, he suddenly became stern:
"In the promotion ceremony, any lie is allowed and reasonable. It is a place where people deceive and attack each other. You didn't disguise your identity well, that's your fault - can you still accuse others of lying?
"The ceremony after that is not a play, people will die and people will be killed.
"If you can't adapt, you'd better not go on, David. You will only hurt yourself and others."
"...Yes. I remember, Dad."
Obviously George rarely gets angry. His sudden reprimand scared David, and he immediately became obedient.
In order to help the knight change the topic and ease the stiff and silent atmosphere, Aiwas asked: "Did she say she was a gentleman?"
"That's right...no."
David shook his head honestly and said: "Because I arrived late. I saw that everyone before said so, so I followed suit..."
Mainly antlers.
As soon as David came in, he saw Deerhorn talking to Aleister. He didn't dare to interrupt, so he could only listen. Then he wrote down Aleister's name and personal information.
But David still kept a hand.
Because he didn't say that Aleister was wrapped in the shadow demon, and "her" voice was rough and low, so he "misidentified the other party's identity".
As a result, now he can't tell how much of what Aleister said is true and how much is false...
"By the way, I haven't introduced myself to you yet!"
The teenager, who was at most fourteen or fifteen years old this year, suddenly reacted, apologized, then stood up and bowed, and said seriously: "I am David Barton. Good afternoon, Mr. Moriarty."
"You can call me Aiwass directly, David."
Aiwass nodded gently and said with a smile.
"Yes, Mr. Aiwass..."
David hesitated for a while, but still asked: "Can I ask, Miss Aleister...what does she look like?"
...Huh?
Aiwass was stunned.
Why do you care so much about what Aleister looks like?
Even if Aleister taught you what transcendence is and stopped you from embarking on the path of transcendence... at most, it was just a master-disciple relationship.
Do you want to know what she looks like, or do you want to know if this "netizen" is good-looking?
Or, you don't really want to date Aleister offline, do you?
Are you so bold?
Are you really not afraid that she is a bad woman of noble red, who will cut you into pieces and take you away?
Update completed!
Brothers, I want to ask, do you prefer to update once at 12 o'clock and once at 2 or 3 o'clock, or would it be better to move both updates to 3 o'clock? Or is it okay for me to take a day off and adjust my work and rest schedule back to normal...
