Shepherd’s Secret Continuation

Chapter 64: Good morning, senior sister

Views:

Thanks to Aiwass's careful treatment, when Yulia woke up this time, her complexion was obviously much better than the last time she lost control.

Yulia woke up on her own without even Iverson having to wake her up specifically.

After getting up the next day, Aiwass gave the unfinished "Sun" card to Julia - as a "talisman".

Even if we ignore its mystical meaning, this card is still valuable as an ornament. It is infused with four points of fire attribute mana from Aiwass, as well as high-quality fire essence produced and sold by Yulia. Even though it is covered with charcoal and cotton cloth, you can still feel the obvious temperature of this card just by touching it.

The heat is not scalding hot. It is about the same as a steam eye mask or a heat pack... It is just right to wear close to the skin in winter.

Yulia was obviously very happy with the gift and reacted very enthusiastically. She even kissed Aiwass and gave him a soft and warm hug like roasted marshmallows through her thick cotton coat.

Watching Yulia put it away happily, Aiwass tapped the armrest of the wheelchair with his right middle finger unconsciously and fell into thought.

Speaking of which, Yulia hasn't had her first period yet. Although it was also due to the low temperature and slow roasting of the Flame Butterfly, Aiwass was about to pull it out.

Yulia turned fifteen last month, and Aiwass calculated the date and felt that it should be soon. By then, he could make a waist protector for his sister to warm her up - using the formula he had just tested, his blood as the carrier of mana, some imitation fire essence bought from outside, and soft cotton and gauze, he could make a warm baby with a heat attenuation of about seven days...

Without knowing alchemy, Aiwas felt that he had some skills in rubbing the baby warm with his hands. Moreover, this behavior itself was obviously in line with the path of dedication... Not only would the blood not be shed in vain, but it could also give him some upgrade experience.

Yesterday I said I would accompany Aiwass to school, but Edward rode a griffin to the university first.

I should go find the doctor who does the testing, Aiwass thought.

Afterwards, after Lily had her breakfast, she helped Edwards out in his wheelchair, and this time Edward's personal valet also came with them.

Because he usually lived outside with Edward, Aiwass didn't even know his name. But it was obviously not the right time to ask.

This man was a red-haired man who was as strong as a brown bear. He was helping to carry the two people's suitcases.

In this era, there were no trolley suitcases with wheels. Everyone used hand-held suitcases. They were made of hard leather wrapped around a hardwood frame, and the corners were fixed with brass... just like the medicine box that a doctor would carry when he visited the house.

Such boxes were very heavy, but the servant was able to carry one in each hand and walk briskly behind them.

Although he didn't say it in front of Aiwass, he was obviously annoyed by the slow pace at which Lily pushed the wheelchair - he would rush away from the two of them from time to time, and then obviously slow down a few steps.

This person is impatient.

Aiwass judged in his heart.

And if nothing unexpected happens, he and his eldest brother should have a good relationship. That's why he would do such an impolite behavior like "urging"... After all, the mainstream path of Avalon is authoritarianism, and it is very particular about "rules". Although Aiwass himself doesn't care about this, he doesn't know whether he cares or not.

Judging from this point, Edward should be very friendly to the people around him and have no airs at all.

How strange.

Edward is a quiet man who is good at keeping secrets, but he is so gentle to others in private...

When Aiwass and his party arrived at the university town in the Red Queen District, Edward, who seemed to have finished his personal affairs, was standing there, feeding water to his griffin.

As Aiwas approached, he turned around as if he had noticed something and nodded slightly to the valet.

Although Edward didn't say a word, the red-haired man immediately understood what he meant: "Where to send it?"

"No. 14, Ronin Street."

Edward replied simply.

Aiwass asked, "Is that our dormitory? Isn't it said to be inside the university?"

"The Royal Law University is very big," Edward shook his head. "Ronin Street is the street in front of the main teaching building of the seminary. You can go east directly from the teaching building without turning. Walk forward about 500 steps, cross a park and a small bridge, and you will see the house.

"I just went to see it. It's very beautiful. It's right by the river... It's also very close to the law school. You can take a boat. The straight-line distance to the second restaurant is only about 400 steps. If you, Lily, want to audit the law school while you're resting at Aiwass, you can get there by walking the same distance. It's even closer than the student dormitory."

Edward glanced at Lily, whose eyes widened, and immediately explained, "I didn't buy it. It was a short-term gift from Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"The houses in Loughborough Street are something money can't buy - usually, it's a benefit given by Her Majesty the Queen to professors."

Outrageous.

Aiwass thought.

The "stand-alone dormitory" that Master Janice mentioned was not the kind of student dormitory gathered in one building as he imagined - but a faculty dormitory in the form of a villa!

My goodness, where did you put me

Edward said, "As far as I know, this villa was intended to be given to Master Janice. Although the master refused the invitation to be a visiting professor at the Royal Law University, the house was still given to her. And the master gave the house back to her student Princess Isabel in her personal name.

"According to Her Royal Highness the Princess' wishes... this villa will belong to you until you graduate.

There was some uncontrollable surprise and confusion in Edward's eyes when he looked at Edwards.

After he and Aiwass resealed and treated Yulia yesterday, they had no energy to discuss Aiwass's meeting with the princess. He had no idea what happened yesterday.

Aiwass thought, the only reason you can suppress your curiosity now is because the painting sent by Master Janice has not arrived yet.

When the Golden Dawn is delivered to your house, you will most likely come to me and ask me “what happened that night”…

But just as Aiwass gave a polite smile to cover up the same question mark in his heart.

Edward suddenly came over and gave him an awkward hug. Julia was very short, so it was natural for her to hug him. But Edward, who was 1.89 meters tall, was like a giant who bent down carefully and looked at the ground. Just by looking at him, Aiwas felt that Edward's waist was very uncomfortable.

Man, you are so tender...

Aiwass was complaining in his heart, but suddenly he felt Edward quietly put something in his arms.

He had an idea and reached into the outer pocket of his clothes to touch the shape of the thing.

He only touched it twice and immediately recognized its identity—

—It’s a pistol.

To be precise, it was the elf-crafted pistol "Lady's Grip" that was surrendered when Aiwass killed the evil warlock Veronica!

“…Is the school so dangerous?”

He whispered in Edward's ear, "The Royal Law University's defense is comparable to that of the government building, right? Why do we still have to bring guns to class?"

Two and a half months after school started, when he reported to school on the first day, he was carrying a gun that had been used to kill people.

Just thinking about this scene made Aiwas feel subtle.

But he didn't refuse either.

Now he only has an "Enchantment Card: Shadow Blade" and a Chapel Key for his ultimate move, and he still lacks some self-protection and deterrence capabilities. It is always better to have conventional weapons on hand, after all, being pointed at by a gun is obviously more intimidating than being pointed at by a key.

"I have no idea."

Edward gave a high-quality answer in a deep voice: "But after I came in today, my instinct told me... the atmosphere in the school is not right."

Aiwass raised an eyebrow and accepted the explanation.

As a high-ranking transcendent, Edward's spiritual perception and vision are much sharper than Aiwass's. Even if it is just a "bad feeling" without any basis, it is probably valuable information.

… I am somewhat unlucky.

He really wanted to come here to attend classes and read books in peace.

Please, don't blame me if anything happens...

"If something happens at the Royal Law University, it must be because of a professor."

Edward straightened up, thought for a few seconds, and said in a low voice: "Anyway, take it with you first, and protect yourself first. If the gun is found by others, you can say that I asked you to take it, and let him notify the Inspectorate.

"Don't give anybody a weapon if they ask you for it. Put it all on me - understand? You can't give your gun to anyone unless I'm here."

"clear."

Aiwass nodded decisively.

Very satisfied with Aiwass's decisiveness, Edward nodded slightly to express his appreciation.

He slightly moved aside, revealing Haina who was running in a panic from a distance: "I found a senior for you to show you the way... You have met twice before, so you should be quite familiar with each other. From now on, you can follow her. If you have any problems, ask your senior. If someone bullies you, you can also go to her."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Inspector General!"

Haina ran over and whispered with some fear and trepidation: "I seem to be... a little late... How long have you been waiting?"

"No, you're not late. Aiwass just got here."

Edward said calmly. The moment he looked up at Haina, his face was expressionless, as if he had put on a pale metal mask: "Supervisor Haina Dane, my brother is in your hands."

Haina breathed a sigh of relief.

She subconsciously felt that she might be late again, and her heart almost skipped a beat.

"yes!"

But at the same time, she stood at attention and answered without hesitation, with a firm look on her face.

She had not known the Inspector General before.

Although he looked familiar, as if I had seen him somewhere before, it was probably an illusion.

How could I have the chance to meet such a great person...

—This person is the manager of the Inspectorate in the capital Glass Island! He is basically the most important person she has ever met!

One and a half levels higher than Director Kent!

Plus, the Inspectorate is also responsible for disciplinary inspections and punishments for corruption, which basically means she is the boss of ...

… So the most powerful person in the Moriarty family is not the professor, but Inspector General Edward

Director Kent gave her a day off today, and she had been planning to read in the dormitory today.

As a result, just now... when the inspector general ran up to Haina with a stern face and showed his ID to prove his identity, Haina almost peed herself to death - I'm not exaggerating, it's true.

At that time, Haina was so scared that her legs went limp.

At first, Hai Na thought she had made some mistake in her work and was going to be dismissed and punished by the Inspectorate!

—I am a small inspector who doesn’t even have a griffin, and I have just graduated from the trainee status.

As for the Inspector General of Glass Island going there in person? !

Basically, if a person of Director Kent's level committed serious crimes such as smuggling, treason, murder, etc., it would be up to this adult to personally issue a disciplinary notice... Maybe Director Kent is not even qualified, Haina thought.

Only when Haina heard that "because she is helpful, sincere and not arrogant, she has a high reputation in the school" and asked her to take care of Aiwas and take him to meet people in the class, did she breathe a sigh of relief.

She felt her fingertips and chin go numb.

It was not until a long time after Edward left that she felt her heartbeat again, and her back, neck, and cheeks were all wet with sweat.

She didn't have time to boil water for a bath, so she just changed her clothes, wiped her body, and ran over.

But Haina's mind went blank due to fear. She realized halfway that she had not changed her shoes or put on her coat, so she hurried back to put them on.

Fortunately, she ran really fast, so Aiwass and Edward didn't have to wait for her at the door for long.

Rather, Edward actually gave her enough time to wash up...

If she hadn't gone back again, she would have definitely arrived earlier. In that case, Edward might not have had the chance to secretly hand the gun to Edwards, and he would have been a little dissatisfied.

From this point of view, Senior Sister Haina is quite lucky...

"—Good morning, Senpai."

Aiwass, who was sitting in a wheelchair, silently adjusted the position of the pistol in his arms, and looked at the senior sister with interest. Her brain immediately short-circuited when she came into contact with a big shot, and showed a bright and friendly smile: "Long time no see... We haven't seen each other for two days, right?"
