Pastor's Tantra

Lily lay on the sofa and watched Aiwass clean up the ceremony for a while, but couldn't help but come down to clean up with him.

"What path characteristics did you choose?"

Aiwass asked casually.

Generally speaking, he didn't like to ask about these things. This is just a matter of curiosity on his part.

Because the characteristics of the road are basically chosen based on instinct.

That is the entry given by the Nine Pillars God, and it cannot go wrong. Instinctive choices are usually correct... In other words, all three entries are suitable for you, so you can choose whatever you want.

The same principle applies to giving the characteristics of the path that fit the action based on the actions in the ritual - without knowing anything about it, as long as you are forced to reveal your potential by the ritual and act in accordance with your heart, the words given will It must be the one that suits you best.

Unless, like the Iris assassin lady and Aiwass himself, there are special career inheritance requirements, and certain path characteristics must be obtained in order to complete the job... then there will be a need to control entries.

But Lily relied entirely on the tantra book to embark on the extraordinary path. In other words, she actually does not have the inheritance and restrictions of the professional system. It's equivalent to a brand new profession that Aiwass doesn't understand... Then Aiwass's pointers may lead Lily to choose a path that is not suitable for her.

This is Aiwass' valuable experience: If you have never played this profession, then when someone comes to ask you for advice, don't rely on your intuition to point fingers, but frankly say "I really don't understand."

"Shadow Affinity both times."

Lily replied softly.

"Huh?"

Aiwass was stunned for a moment: "You want to learn shadow sneaking?"

Hearing this, a sneer came from Aiwass's shadow that Lily could hear clearly.

Lily glanced at Aiwass's shadow and replied seriously: "Yes. Didn't you say that the assassin could only escape into the shadows after gaining shadow affinity three times?

"I want to have that ability too."

"Do you also want to steal the power of shadow...Miss Spider?"

The shadow demon made a low voice like a lion's language.

"It's not stealing, it's teaching."

Lily said politely and seriously: "I remember the young master said that those assassins have not actually come into contact with Shadow Demon. Their skills are not imitation, but more based on imagination... Then if I am taught by Shadow Demon himself to infiltrate Will the shadow's ability be stronger than theirs?"

"of course."

Shadow Demon replied without hesitation: "They haven't even mastered the surface of shadow. They are so clumsy that it makes me want to laugh. The problem is... followers of the God who steals scales and steals feathers, why should I teach you?"

For some reason, Lily felt a hint of hostility from Shadow Demon's voice.

And Aiwass knelt down and touched his own shadow, and softly comforted him: "That means it's okay, right, Shadow Demon?"

Lily's words actually spoke to his heart.

Because Aiwass had also thought about this before - if Shadow Demon was sealed into a blank card and became his big beast, it would be equivalent to drilling into the elf ball. It needs to be actively released by Aiwass before it can permanently reside in the outside world.

This means that he doesn't need Shadow Affinity to perfectly control the Shadow Fiend. But it also means that Aiwass will lose the vigilance ability of the resident shadow demon.

And by then he no longer needed to use a wheelchair, so Lily no longer had that reason to push her wheelchair and follow him behind. Her equipment that lowers the attention of others and always keeps an eye on them is also difficult to trigger. And if Lily was attacked, it would be difficult for Aiwass to react immediately.

If Lily can learn shadow sneaking, when Aiwass enters a dangerous area, Lily can replace the shadow demon, slip into her own shadow, and guard Aiwass in an absolutely safe place!

In this case, even Aiwass can take Lily with him when he goes for archeology or abroad.

He had prepared such good equipment for Lily, but it would be a bit of a waste if she only let her play low-end games.

"It's not that I don't want to teach, my respected master."

Shadow Demon let out a rumbling whisper, and his voice became softer, more submissive, and even a little aggrieved to Aiwass: "This spider lady does not have shadow seeds in her body. It's like a person without gills, even if he can imitate fish. Even if you swim in the water, you won’t be able to breathe for a long time.”

"The seeds of shadow..."

Aiwass mused.

...Speaking of which, the other half of his pastoral method has never been used.

That is the [Pastoral (Essence)] skill that is subordinate to the "Way of Transcendence", and it is the ability to allow the phantoms being pastored to grant power to others.

Aiwass thought for a while and said to Shadow Demon: "How about... how about we make a deal?

"I give you my flesh and blood, and you give her your strength. Of course, don't refuse in a hurry - it's not today anyway.

"Although I have agreed with you before that I will give you flesh and blood to taste when I come out...but you will have to wait for a long time. After all, I still need to use a lot of mana."

"Are you going to fight another, my lord?"

Shadow Demon became energetic: "In that case, your magic power may not be needed. Now I can already exert part of my power through your body."

"Of course not. I want to make extraordinary items - items that require fifty units of fire attribute mana to make."

"...Are you going to make a bomb?"

Shadow Demon hesitated.

"Hmm."

Aiwass's mouth showed a proud smile: "Let you see the strength of your master."

Seeing that the ceremony place was almost tidied up, Aiwass said to Lily: "Go and bring Yulia over, keep your voice down, and don't wake up the others."

"Now?" Lily glanced at the time.

It's only around four in the morning, and the sun hasn't even risen yet.

"Well, you have to be ready before the sun rises. Today is the new moon, the darkest night. It is also the day when the [sun]'s power is at its weakest."

Aiwass explained simply.

"Okay, we'll be back soon."

Lily nodded and escaped into the shadows.

After Lily left, Shadow Demon was a little uneasy: "What on earth are you going to make...that requires so much mana?"

"Have you ever heard of Magic Card?"

Aiwass asked rhetorically.

"What is that?" Shadow Demon had never heard of it at all.

"Oh, or so," Aiwass chuckled, "Do you know the 'Sin Art'?"

"...Are you talking about the ritual used to extract my power before?"

Shadow Demon was deeply impressed by [The Ritual of Mortal Sin].

So far, it has never seen anyone draw the power of a superior demon so easily.

"Yulia is the egg of a phantom demon, you know that."

"That's obvious."

Shadow Demon replied: "I was also reborn from the Phantom Demon's egg decades ago, so I am quite familiar with it."

All phantoms that hatch from phantom eggs are not new phantoms, but phantoms that are reborn after death.

"I know the secret of your demon's eternal life."

Aiwass nodded and said: "After the death of your phantom demon, the remnants of it can absorb the power of the path and slowly regenerate and recover directly as long as they return to the dream world. But if the death is too complete, or it is destroyed again during rebirth, the concept will descend to the material realm.

"Those babies who have not yet learned to speak and do not know their own names after birth, if they are born with a resonance with a certain path, can sense the phantom of the young ecology."

"Phantom Demon Eggs" are basically child prodigies. Yulia is only fifteen years old now, and she is already familiar with university-level knowledge.

But it's not so much that becoming a Phantom Egg will increase your talent. It would be better to say that only true geniuses can become phantom eggs.

"And what I have to do is to extract the demon from Yulia's body."

Aiwass replied: "This way Yulia doesn't have to worry about losing control."

"...Let me remind you first, Master. Extracting phantom demons from phantom demon eggs will cause the phantom demon eggs to die immediately."

"That's human craft."

Aiwass affirmed: "But what I want to use is Tiansi's technique."

At this moment, Lily gently pushed the door open and entered.

She explained softly: "We met Mr. Oswald when we came out and were delayed for a while."

At this moment, Lily's coat was draped over Yulia, who was wearing pajamas. But Yulia was obviously not awake yet, standing in a daze.

But she is very well-behaved and neither noisy nor fussy.

Yulia rubbed her eyes while looking sleepily at the remaining rituals in the room.

Aiwass smiled and said: "Oswald must have heard the noise and came over to check the situation."

"Mr. Oswald is really awesome."

Lily sighed: "I was still in stealth mode, and he saw me directly."

This is normal. Aiwass nodded.

This elf steward may have a fifth level. The reason why it is possible is because Oswald did not enter the book, so Aiwass does not know more information about him.

These guardian spirits will serve and protect the founder's family, most likely the Theocracy or the trade between the Candle and the Silver Crown Dragon.

After all, the ancestors of these founding families were related to the Silver-crowned Dragon ascending to the position of Pillar God. Many of them should have been elevated to become apostles of the Silver-crowned Dragon - just like the "Gawain" he had just seen. ".

The Theocracy sent people to take care of the bloodline of these apostles left in the material world, at least to prevent it from being cut off... This is quite normal.

Even if the apostle has no relationship with the material world and no longer has any memories, for people in the material world, it is at least an appropriate and reasonable respect. And this is most likely what Si Zhu meant.

——Although no one knows the name of the Silver Crowned Dragon when he was a human, Aiwass speculated that he should most likely be called "Arthur".

After all, the founding monarch of Avalon was Lancelot, and the founding family were the original Knights of the Round Table. With the presence of Merlin, Vivian, Mordred and others, The Legend of King Arthur is fully equipped, except for the protagonist King Arthur.

The human warrior played by Aiwass before who had adaptability beyond the road was called "Arthur" by the giant chief - the giant obviously did not recognize the knight played by Barton, but he knew "Arthur".

So Aiwass was thinking...could this be Arthur's story before he killed the White Dragon and became the Mian Tiansi on the path of power?

At that time, Arthur had the adaptability to the path of power and the path of transcendence.

The elves' faith is Sizhu. They were the only clear allies of the Avalonians at that time, and participated in the crusade against the giants... Can this mean that this is actually a battle between the candle and the supreme god?

In other words, this is at least Si Zhu's revenge for the despicable murder of his "Eternal Pioneer" by the apostle of the Supreme Heaven.

From this perspective, it is very likely that the Silver Crowned Dragon was single-handedly supported by Si Zhu to ascend to power. This is also the reason why the Church and the Elves have a high status in Avalon, and the Theocracy and Avalon will become "eternal allies."

Aiwass suppressed his curiosity about Oswald.

"Come here, Yuri."

He reached out and patted Yulia, smiled and opened his arms, indicating that he wanted to hug her.

At this time, Yulia, who slowly woke up, suddenly realized that Aiwass was not in a wheelchair.

She was stunned for a moment and rushed over: "Brother, your leg is completely healed?"

Aiwass smiled happily, picked her up and raised her above his head, and then held her in his arms: "Do you think brother looks like something is wrong?"

He kissed Yulia on the cheek and said softly: "Are you still wearing the amulet, Yulia?"

"Except when I take a shower, I always carry it with me."

Yulia whispered in Aiwass's ear.

The girl smiled happily, rubbed her cheek affectionately, and her eyes turned into moons: "This whole week, I haven't had a headache or heartache... This amulet is useful!"

——That is actually the effect of the seal, and both of them know it well.

But Yulia would rather believe that this is the effect of the amulet. Because if that was the case, she would never feel pain again.

"Good. It'll stop bothering you soon."

Aiwass smiled, his forehead gently touching Yulia's hot forehead: "Do you believe me, brother?"

"I will always believe in my brother."

The transparent white-haired girl put her arms around Aiwass's neck and said seriously.
