Pastor's Tantra

Although Aiwass asked for leave, he just didn't plan to go to class this morning.

Previously, he had approved a note from his tutor as a teaching assistant and borrowed a book "General Ritual" from the school library. Now I just have time to watch it in the dormitory for a while.

I have to say that the level of knowledge in the university is very high.

The "secret knowledge" that the Noble Red Society wrote to Aiwass in the past is only common sense in this book. The knowledge in this book includes various common rituals up to the second level. Although the original intention of this book is to enable priests to identify and counteract various evil rituals used beyond the path...

But there is no problem for Aiwass to learn how to use ritual magic.

After having breakfast, Aiwass concentrated on reading in the study room on the second floor.

Until an unexpected and reasonable guest comes to visit.

"Senior Haina?"

Aiwass put down the book in his hand and teased the girl who was invited into the study and sitting on the sofa on one side: "Look, senior sister, you didn't make an appointment in advance this time, so the time for your visit is very appropriate."

It's ten o'clock in the morning outside.

She was finally able to come to Aiwass in an earthly time... This made Aiwass very happy.

"Actually, I wasn't late that easily when I was in class before? I don't know what's going on..."

Haina sighed helplessly and casually brought up the topic: "Forget it, let's not mention that. I have three things to do with you this time."

"three item?"

This surprised Aiwass: "Is it related to yesterday's club?"

"Well, one of them is related."

Haina nodded and replied: "Director Kent said that he would give you another tantra book as a thank you for this incident."

As she spoke, she glanced at the "Ordinary Ritual" on Aiwass's desk, paused slightly and added: "Even if it is beyond the path. This book will be completely processed... If you plan to If you are giving it to someone, it is best to report that person's name and the Supervision Bureau will vouch for you. Foreigners are also allowed.

"In this way, if that person has not committed any crime, he will not be arrested by the Supervisory Bureau for learning the knowledge in the tantra book...even if it is a tantra book of an illegal path."

"'Thank you'?"

Aiwass raised his eyebrows: "I thought it would be a 'reward' or a 'appeasement'. I was mentally prepared to participate in another commendation."

Haina smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to respond: "You can also use it as a condolence gift..."

The Supervisory Bureau does not dare to invite Aiwass to participate in the "recognition ceremony" anymore.

Logically speaking, the commendation ceremony has nothing to do with Aiwass, who does not belong to the three major agencies and is not a soldier.

The last commendation ceremony was actually an attempt to cover up the incompetence of the Supervisory Bureau and try to use this method to share part of Aiwass's honor and credit with the Supervisory Bureau. The last tantra book was used to buy Aiwass' hush money.

——Ivester doesn’t need to say anything, as long as he doesn’t say anything after getting on the podium.

This time, luckily, no one died. What was going to be a big mess turned into a big victory by chance.

However, the royal family is not stupid, especially Princess Isabel who personally participated in this incident... Although the result is good, it does not mean that the process is correct.

Therefore, the Supervision Bureau will be publicly praised this time, and it will even be praised in the newspapers.

But in fact, all the ministers who had anything to do with this matter were interviewed by Her Majesty the Queen last night. Even at this moment, there are still emergency meetings in the Round Table Hall - they usually don't hold meetings on Friday mornings, and this is a special situation.

Under such circumstances, the Supervision Bureau would definitely not dare to make any more big noise. They would rather hope that people will forget about this matter quickly.

Director Kent has already told Haina about this. But it was not easy for her to tell Aiwass directly.

——But in fact, Aiwass knew that this was indeed a quite sincere "thank you".

Maybe Haina doesn't understand what Director Kent means, but Aiwass can understand.

The true sincerity of the Supervisory Bureau is not as simple as sending a tantra book - after all, it is something that can be bought with money and favors, and it is completely inconsistent with Aiwass's achievements.

What they actually meant was to allow Aiwass to recruit an extraordinary subordinate privately. There is no need to pass an exam or even be on a legal path. The Supervisory Bureau can even provide proof of identity for Aiwass... If something happens to Aiwass' subordinate, the Supervisory Bureau will not come to trouble him, but will take responsibility for it itself.

What the Supervision Bureau means is that since Aiwass helped them solve a problem this time, the Supervision Bureau will also help Aiwass solve a problem in the future.

This is a pretty good reward.

This indifferent and calm style... is obviously not a promise that Director Kent dares to make.

Did this alarm the higher ups?

The most senior manager of the Supervision Bureau is the Great Guardian, who is also a rare fifth-level powerhouse in Avalon. He was probably the only one who dared to give such a guarantee that clearly violated the laws of the kingdom.

Aiwass knew in his heart that Lily's identity could be officially cleared - she no longer needed to hide even if she entered the path of adaptation.

Then he relaxed and Aiwass chuckled and joked casually, his low voice like a charming devil: "But, senior sister... since you immediately thought of the tantra book that transcends the path. Isn't that right? It means that you are actually instinctively curious about this and want to get in touch with it?"

"——Don't talk nonsense, I'm not, I'm not!"

Haina said in a panic, as if her butt was burned by the sofa, she stood up instantly: "At most, I am only a little interested in alchemy..."

"Don't worry, don't worry. It's just a joke, I know."

Awas comforted Haina.

This somewhat naive senior is really interesting, poking and jumping around.

She was able to become the leader of the student council because of this almost completely careless state... In addition to her good grades, it was probably because her supporters far outnumbered her opponents.

Now that the relationship between the two has gradually become familiar, Aiwass's occasional jokes will not make Haina angry. But she reacted greatly when she was slightly frightened, which made Aiwass like teasing her more and more.

In order to appease Haina, Aiwass casually pulled out a dark red book from the side of the desk and handed it to Haina with a smile: "Look, what is this?"

Haina sat up straight on the sofa and took the book, discovering that it was the "Alchemy Code" that she had been thinking about for a long time.

"We made a promise before - you see, I kept my promise. Senior sister, you don't have class today, right? Then you might as well watch it here."

Aiwass invited: "You can sit next to me. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."

Haina was obviously moved.

She held "The Code of Alchemy" and subconsciously sat down next to Aiwass.

Aiwass asked smoothly: "Speaking of which, when can I get my 'symbol gift'?"

"It can be tonight or tomorrow. I'll pick it up after you get home. You set a time and I'll take you there then."

Haina said happily, knowing everything about it, and even added actively: "Because you have to go to the White Queen District to get it. The Red Queen District is still in chaos recently, and Gordon and the new director have gone to the Round Table Hall for a meeting. "

"...It's better not to set a time, I'm afraid."

"What are you afraid of! I will definitely not be late this time!" Haina was a little embarrassed.

"Let's do this, senior. After the afternoon class is over, you can come home with me."

Aiwass invited: "After Lily sends me home, let her go with you to the bureau to select the tantra book."

"Do you want to give it to Miss Lily? That's fine...I'll take you home and send Miss Lily back after she finishes choosing the book."

Haina thought for a while: "Why don't I stay with you the whole time today to protect you. Otherwise, if you get injured, Inspector Edward will definitely blame me."

"That's not necessary, right? Those demonologists already failed once yesterday. Even if they want to do it again, they probably won't do it now." Aiwass smiled.

"This has to do with the remaining two things..."

Haina became serious, turned around and bowed her head to Aiwass sincerely: "Please help me, Mr. Aiwass!"

"What's wrong?"

Aiwass turned around in surprise: "Just tell me if you have anything to say. If I can help, I will definitely help."

This is not a courtesy from a social person, he is serious. This is Aiwass's way of doing things.

Since his friend has already begged him, and his attitude is so serious - then as long as Aiwass can do this, he will help even if it is a little more troublesome and dangerous.

So Haina fully told Aiwass about the test that Principal Meg had put to her, as well as the "portable alchemy bomb".

"President Meg?"

Aiwass was a little surprised: "Does she want to accept you as a disciple? She is the strongest person in Avalon!"

"...Is the principal so strong?"

Haina also opened her eyes wide.

She also knew that Meg's principal was a very strong student, even quelling a war by herself, and she also knew that the next principal was also a student of Meg's. But she really didn't expect that Meg was actually the strongest person in Avalon!

"Of course." Aiwass nodded.

...Not only that, the old lady is also famous for her vicious eyes. There is also the arrogance unique to the authoritarian path.

Although the old lady seemed kind and cheerful, Meg had a smile for anyone. Her smile didn't mean she was friendly - people who Meg didn't like would get nothing out of flattering her. Her heart is as fierce as a liger.

Meg's ability to fall in love with Haina means that Haina has at least the fifth level of Tao talent... which is the same level as that assassin lady.

Of course, the advancement ceremony is very random, and even if you have the talent, you may not be able to realize it... but those without the corresponding talent will definitely not be able to advance. Even if some people study extraordinary knowledge for ten years, it will be difficult for them to obtain the first professional level. For example, Mr. King, whom Aiwass met in his first advancement ceremony, was in his thirties or forties and still trying to advance to the second level.

——It even failed!

Judging from the way Mr. King advertises skillfully, it is estimated that this is not the first time he has failed.

"Since Principal Meg is very fond of you, you can't let her down."

Aiwass replied decisively: "I helped you with this."

Help others as you help yourself. This is also considered an investment, and it is guaranteed to make money without losing money.

After all, he originally wanted to solve this incident, and he just wanted to give Haina some credit. There is a big difference between having a little reputation and not having it at all, but too much of it will be detrimental to it... This thing also has diminishing marginal utility.

If Haina could become Meg's disciple, then he might be able to speak a few words to Meg's side.

After all, one of the direct causes of Avalon's destruction was Meg's death.

If Aiwass can convince the stubborn old lady to stop holding the advancement ceremony for the time being, then history can be truly changed. And Aiwass will have more development time.

"...But, where is Mr. Sherlock?"

Aiwass was very interested in another point: "Didn't Principal Meg ask you to call him too?"

Last time in the ritual copy, Sherlock had too little information and was unable to play a big role. Now that he has arrived at Sherlock's home court, Aiwass still wants to see how smart Sherlock is at full power.

But unfortunately, his wish may not be realized in the short term——

"This is the third thing," Haina replied sadly, "Mr. Sherlock was attacked last night."
