Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 103 Aiwass' Biological Parents
"Your biological father's name is Julio Alexander. He was not a nobleman, but the child of a small town poet. He also graduated from the seminary you are studying now."

Bishop Mathers stunned Aiwass with his first sentence: "And your mother, Anne Alexander, was once an iris nobleman. She abandoned her surname and eloped to Avalon."

...there is too much information in these words.

Aiwass choked as soon as he came up.

"——Annie is my close friend and my roommate. We came to Avalon together, and we were classmates when we were in Iris."

At this moment, a soft and mysterious female voice sounded from behind Aiwass.

Aiwass turned around after hearing the sound, and saw a person he had never seen before but was extremely familiar with——

She has long black, thick, wavy hair that reaches to her waist.The skin is fair, the breasts are tall, and the facial features are deep and three-dimensional.It looks a bit like an elf, and it has the taste of an ancient resting country.But the most impressive thing is that her jasper-like pupils seem to shine like a starry sky.

She was wearing black gauze and walked barefoot on the soft carpet at home.Jade rings made of emerald jade are hung on the wrists and ankles.

This is Mrs. Mina, the manager of the mall in the game—the one who is responsible for drawing cards, opening limited pools, selling various gift packages and discounts.

When she stood with today's younger version of Mathers, the two were a perfect match-even though one was 46 and the other 35, they both visually looked like young people in their 20s.There is no trace of time left on them at all.

Aiwass has no memory of her appearing in the plot at all.But he can guarantee that all players will be impressed with her.

When the God of Faceless Studio does not hold promotional activities for a long time, there will often be players who go crazy every day on the official website of Aite, posting things like "When is the wife coming?", "Madam, I miss you so much", "Madam, you I don’t want me to spend my money in other games” and other posts.

And now, the very first thing she said when she met Aiwass caught his attention.

"Are you... Mrs. Mina?" Aiwass asked.

Bishop Mathers was a little surprised: "How do you know her name is Mina?"

"I guess it was Maya."

Mina said with a smile: "Didn't she go to my fortune-telling shop last year to persuade me not to lie?"

"That guy just likes to be busy."

Mathers snorted with some dissatisfaction: "Just ignore her."

Mrs. Mina looked at Aiwass, a little absent-minded, and sighed softly: "You really...you look very similar to Julio and Anne. No wonder Mathers took the chapel down when he saw you for the first time. I have given you the key."

"Is my father also your classmate?" Aiwass asked curiously.

"Julio is our senior, two grades older than us."

Mina looked at Aiwass and said with a smile: "Julio was popular with girls back then. His father was a poet, so he has a special artistic temperament, but he doesn't have the frivolous character of Iris man. A calm and gentle, serious and romantic handsome guy, who has mastered the art of lighting before graduation—I don’t know if you still have it, but when our girls had dysmenorrhea, they would go to the seniors and sisters of the seminary They treat. Many people are staring at Julio.

"Although he is not good at sports, he is good at singing, and he has a decent tenor voice.

"Julio and Annie met in a student troupe, and he was the main actor in that troupe at that time. And Annie is a new star with considerable acting talent. Your mother was optimistic and cheerful when she was a student, with a gentle and generous personality. Although she is from a foreign country She is an international student, but she has many friends. In addition, her major is this, so when she first joined the troupe, she was voted as the heroine by high votes.

"I remember the first opera they performed was "Lulu's Magic Flute", which was very difficult. But their performance went smoothly, and even the royal family came to see it. Your parents played Prince Tamino and Night The queen's daughter, Pamina... also started dating secretly after that performance."

When Mina said this, she glanced at Mathers: "But since then, I married Mathers and moved from the school dormitory to his house. I don't know much about what happened after that.

"I only know that Annie was pregnant before graduation. She took a long leave to give birth to you, so she didn't have enough credits to keep a grade. At that time, your mother took you to class together... I still hold What about you when you were young?"

Mina's voice was very gentle, but a little sad: "Anne had already changed her surname at that time. She should have broken up with her family and forcibly married Julio."

When she saw Aiwass, she immediately thought of her close friend who had been dead for more than ten years.

The memory of the university that I can never go back, along with the person I will never see again, emerges before my eyes.

After so many years, Mina thought she had forgotten.But when he saw Aiwass, the memory that had become gray suddenly resurfaced, and all kinds of memories in the past regained their voices and colors.

The atmosphere among the four became silent for a while.

Mathers led Aiwass into the living room and sat down.A space for wheelchairs had already been vacated around the table, and Mina poured a cup of the hot black tea that had been prepared for both Aiwass and Lily.

The bishop's home was anything but luxurious.The only thing worthy of praise is that his family lives in the Red Queen.

But its area is very small, even much smaller than Aiwass' villa in school.It has only two floors and three bedrooms.They entered through the front door and went to the living room, and "Mrs. Mina's Divination Shop" is at the back door on the first floor, which is also connected to the living room.

"What do you want to add?"

Mrs. Mina sorted out her emotions, and asked Lily to sit beside Aiwass, and then asked the two of them.

"Just add milk," Aiwass replied.

"I want milk too...and some honey." Lily whispered.

While waiting for the milk tea, Bishop Mathers sighed: "Your father was my student, but Professor Moriarty was also kind to me. So I actually struggled for a while, whether I should talk to you clearly Your background, is this unfair to your adoptive father...

"But since you've been attacked by demonologists so many times, I think it's time to make it clear to you.

"Your parents were cursed and killed by a demon scholar, which is related to the Jack the Ripper case ten years ago. The prisoner is likely to be the Ripper's mentor, and the contract demon is the Iron Hook Demon."

Mathers' voice was a little hoarse: "At that time, the entire Alexander family was cursed, and many people died due to this unknown curse. He came to ask me for help...but I was not in the Candlestick Cathedral that morning."

As he spoke, he glanced at the crimson key hanging on Aiwass' wheelchair: "You should know by now that there is a holy sword sealed inside this key. But I want to tell you that this holy sword was Cursed, and the curse is very strong.

"Just the night before, the curse inside it was accidentally leaked. In order to prevent innocent people from suffering, I took it to an abandoned warehouse away from human habitation, and asked a few arbitrators to help me seal it. After I finished my work When I got back, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

"It was too late by then. Both your parents were killed by the Hook Demon, but they used their last strength to protect you. Since then, you have no relatives in Avalon. I also seriously consider whether to Adopt you, after all I know your father and Mina knows your mother. I had that chance...but I ended up sending you to an orphanage. I'm sorry, Aiwass."

Mathers sighed, a little regretful: "Because I was having conflicts with my family at that time... Mina alone was already unacceptable to them, adopting a student's child—there are quite a few students I have taught. Bai, this reason can't convince them. So I flinched in the end... And I'm really a little scared, I'm worried that something will happen to Mina, Maya, and Mom and Dad.

"To this day we don't know why the Alexander family was attacked by demon scholars, because everyone in the Alexander family was already dead—only two days after your parents died, your grandfather was killed for the same reason.

"The Ombudsman's statement is that your grandfather may have hidden a special secret in an unpublished poem. Because when he died, his manuscripts were lost and disappeared. And among all the dead' In Alexander', only his belongings were stolen. But that's obviously not a good reason, because there's no need to kill your grandfather's children.

"So I was worried that you guys had messed with someone. So I sent you to the orphanage invested by Professor Moriarty.

"Professor Moriarty is a good man. At least the orphanage he invested in is guaranteed. At least it won't be like other orphanages. When the child reaches the age of nine, he will be sent to a factory to work or be sent to Lloyd's as a labor union." Newsboys or doormen, or directly to the big man's bed.

"Finally, when Professor Moriarty went to adopt Yulia as his adopted daughter, I mentioned to him about you. In the end, he really adopted you... This made me owe him another favor."

Mathers slowly recounted the events before Aiwass remembered.

"Bishop Mathers... I want to know, where is my grandfather from?"

Aiwass asked seriously.

"He lives in Yingjiao Village in Shepherd Bay County, which is also your father's hometown."

Mathers replied without hesitation, obviously guessing that Aiwass would ask this question a long time ago: "I know you are very concerned about this matter, but I don't suggest you go there to find clues now. Because you Talented, but you're too weak...and your talent increases your value. Those evil scholars who study demonology will sacrifice you once and sacrifice you a second time."

As he said that, Mathers looked at Aiwass with a complicated expression: "I was thinking at the time... If I had completed the advanced stage two or three years ago and stepped into the fifth energy level, would your parents not have to die?

"But no matter how I calculate, the result is useless... because I am just a transcendent who is dedicated to the path. This makes me very depressed. As long as the curse of the red-handled sword is leaked that day, I must deal with it-I don't It is possible to deal with the curse in the Candlestick Cathedral, which will only infect more people with the curse and spread the curse to the entire Glass Isle. I must be responsible for more innocent people.

"And the principle of the way of devotion is to sacrifice those who are close to you and save those who are far away from you. This is also a kind of 'altruism' in a broad sense. That is to say, if I can step into the fifth energy level, I even predict that you The catastrophe my parents will suffer, I may still choose to save more ordinary people. That is the result of being influenced and manipulated by Dao.

"That state of devotion but ruthlessness terrifies me. I realized that there are things that transcendents of the fifth energy level can't do, and they will be calculated by others or encounter tragedies due to coincidences.

"So from then on, I stopped advancing. If the fourth energy level can't solve the problem, the fifth energy level probably can't solve it...at least that's what I thought at the time."

Mathers sighed, recalling the past in silence.

Aiwass drank the warm milk tea slowly, lost in thought.

Obviously, the death of Aiwass' parents also brought some psychological shadow to Mathers.

From then on, Bishop Mathers lost the desire to continue to advance, and chose to play badly.And then he sought the help of Professor Moriarty and became a spiritual member—that is, as a representative of the church, he is not a knight, and he can enter the round table hall without armor, participate in meetings and vote without official positions.

So far, there are only six spiritual councilors in Avalon.This is quite a golden identity.At the same time, it also means that a lot of Mathers' energy will be distracted, and he will no longer focus on improving his extraordinary ability.

"—Eagle Point Village?"

At this moment, a somewhat sleepy but indifferent voice came from above.

That was Sherlock.

Wearing thin clothes and slippers, he walked slowly down the stairs.

His hair was a little disheveled, and just by looking at his face, it was obvious that he was still a little confused.

Sherlock, who woke up but didn't fully wake up, subconsciously said, "Isn't that Haina's hometown?"
