Chapter 207: You’re useless when given a chance

Although Isabelle was not going to be used at all in this operation. But as the drop point of the portal, Isabelle still had to know the details of this operation.

When Meg went to meet Ivars in the afternoon, she brought Yanis’ magic painting along with her.

In order to ensure Lily’s safety, Lily had already been transmitted to the Temple of Silver and Tin through the magic painting back then. Otherwise, it was possible for the Bone Sculptor to take out Lily before killing Ivars.

It was also from then that Meg realized …… that she was afraid that something would definitely happen tonight.

It was because Janice must have already known about it that she had arranged it in advance.

Unlike the outside, Meg’s mind was rational and stoic. She just didn’t show the thoughts in her mind.

Therefore, even though Ivars had told her about the transfer method and various taboos of the lost profession of “Molting Warlock”, and also explained in detail the ritual called “Molting Ceremony”.

However, she still didn’t go for the transfer right away. It was because she wasn’t sure what she would become after the transformation, and tonight she had to make sure that the enemy was killed.

As for curses, spies, and Noble Red, they could be put aside for now.

Meg had already confirmed through her own means that Ivars had not lied or omitted anything.

Meg also didn’t want to force a promotion. She herself knew that this promotion was almost certain to fail.

–But she really had no choice.

Even if one died in the dream world and had a broken soul, it was still better than slowly dying of old age between the beds …… That gesture was too ugly.

And her age was here. All these years of experience studying the occult allowed her to confirm that this ritual was completely feasible after hearing it just once.

She can even use her own experience to improve the ceremony – and she is confident that she only needs one ceremony to successfully complete the “molting”.

In other words, it was only a matter of signing a contract with the Ringed Heavenly Division, obtaining the possibility of molting, and then borrowing the power of the Butterfly Heavenly Division through the ritual. There was no danger in signing a contract with the Tenshi, and the payment for borrowing power from the Butterfly Tenshi was also paid by the Ringed Tenshi.

After completing the previous preparations, the only thing that really needed to be taken seriously was the molting ceremony itself.

Just like a worm transforming into a cocoon and a butterfly, there are only two things to pay attention to in order to leave behind the old body and gain a stronger one……. The first thing to pay attention to is the “determination to transcend one’s past self”, and the other is to endure the intense pain.

If you want to talk about it, Meg has already completed the “molting ceremony”.

It’s just that she didn’t know about it at the time.

Meg’s husband was a powerful adventurer. He was a wild and unrestrained exotic swordsman, nearly twenty years older than Meg at that time, and had already traveled to eight countries. And Meg was only twenty five years old when she got married …… She had followed him on his travels three years ago, when she was twenty two years old and had just graduated from the King’s Law University, and had grown up as well.

Their wedding wasn’t the usual, blessed by family and friends kind of wedding – it was a ceremony that took place before the challenge of the dragon. The place of the wedding was the adventurer camp in the wilderness, and the only people attending the wedding were their teammates.

The reason was simple – the adventurer’s journey was to challenge the dragon. And with the dragon so close at hand, if he let this opportunity pass, he didn’t know if there would be a next time.

He was ready to die, but he didn’t want to die unmarried. So he ended up marrying Meg, who had fallen in love with him. …… It was more of a joke than a formal wedding.

She didn’t even wear a wedding dress, and the priest who blessed them was still an illegal priest in the adventuring group.

But as far as Meg was concerned, she was undoubtedly married.

When she finally waited at the camp and learned from the only surviving thief adapted to the path that her husband had not returned …… she had resolved to avenge him one day.

In twenty years, she never forgot her former revenge. Using all means to enhance her power.

Twenty years later, her age was already the same as her former husband. And she once again stumbled upon the giant dragon.

This time, she killed the dragon herself and bathed in its blood – her husband’s wish.

He was a demon who had transcended the path of the Dao, and if he could successfully bathe in the dragon’s blood, he would be able to gain enough power from this act of transcendence, and might even be able to obtain the dragon’s blood.

But at that time, as a Meg of the Way of Might, her body was unable to absorb dragon blood. This ritual only brought her great pain, the melting of her bones and flesh, but did not give her any benefits.

And as she was dying, the Dragon of the Silver Crown himself descended to bestow his blessing.

“–The brave will be rewarded, the loyal will be rewarded, the strong will be stronger than others.”

The rumbling voice of the Dragon of Silver Coronation resounded in her heart. The Pillar God had given her a stronger than normal Ruling Art.

She named this unique power the Dragon’s Blood Ruler to honor her motivation for getting the Ruler.

Had she been able to know about the molting ritual at the time ……

Standing in front of the shattered statue, Meg shook her head slightly, dispelling the distractions that had risen in her mind.

There weren’t that many what ifs. If she had correctly gained benefits from the ceremony back then, then she herself wouldn’t have been given compensation by the Silver-crowned Dragon. At that time, she also did not have so much of a desire to transcend that she might not have been able to be recognized by the Ring of Heaven Division.

“Ms. Meg …… This time the enemy should then indeed be defeated.”

The Great Guardian sighed in relief and confirmed, “What do we do next?”

Meg plucked herself out of the nostalgia of yesteryear and smiled brightly, “What else? Get this on the record – let’s just say that Master Lars Graham from Iris was actually an assassin, and was arrested on the spot by me when he intended to assassinate an important person!

“He then attempted to strike back, intending to destroy the entire Glass Island at the cost of his life. The spell was then countered by me, and then he was cut to ribbons with a few slashes! The evidence and everything is ready, and Master Janice is the witness …… The next step is to write a letter to the Church Kingdom and ask them to condemn the Iris People.”

“Is …… no problem?”

The Great Guardian was a bit worried, “All that is left to you? Aren’t you going to …… be promoted?”

The success rate would only be lower if it provoked Iris’s hostility.

“Hmph.” Meg just sneered, “Sherlock and Iris, don’t those two boys like to fake their deaths? This is our Avalon’s tradition now……. After all, Lancelot I is technically faking his death as well.

“Since they’re looking forward to my death so much, I’ll fake my death once too.”

Maybe if tonight passes and the sun rises, “Meg” will cease to exist.

Thinking about this, another idea popped up in Meg’s mind.

Maybe ending up with Lars Graham would be a good way to end Meg’s life. ……

On the other hand, Lily and Isabel were dressed and gathered around Ivars bedside.

Technically speaking, this is actually Isabel’s bed. It’s just that Janice teleported Ivars over here.

Her teleportation didn’t have any fluctuations and was unusually smooth. Even Aiwas didn’t realize that he had been teleported silently, and his sleep wasn’t even broken.

Because Meg had said so, almost everyone was there this time. He didn’t have to care about anything, he just needed to sleep in peace.

If he had said this to anyone else, he might have been too nervous to sleep instead.

However, Aywas chose to trust Meg completely.

Not to mention, the painting alone foreshadowed Janice’s involvement.

–If even Meg and Janice could not be trusted in Avalon, there was no one else who could be trusted.

Now that the Great Guardian, Janice, and Meg are all alive …… even in the future war of extermination, Avalon can’t shell out this much high-end combat power. At that time, Avalon would only have two left at full strength.

One was the Grand Inquisitor, whom Aiwas was not familiar with, and one was the old man who had served as the Grand Justice before Queen Sophia succeeded to the throne.

Then what did one have to fear?

Not to mention the Noble Red, even if the Rosicrucians came, they would definitely be able to protect themselves – if they could be woken up, it would be because they were rookies or were gullible.

Thus, although Aiwas didn’t know who the person who attacked him tonight was, he also slept very peacefully.

This was the first time Isabel had ever seen the opposite sex while sleeping. Even more so, it was the first time she had seen Aiwas show such a peaceful and defenseless expression.

She quietly moved over to Aywas and tried to reach out and touch his face.

But her heart was beating so fast – thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump, making her feel as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

A little nervously, she turned back and clutched Lily’s hand, all the while wiping the sweat from her hands.

Lily moved her mouth: should I go wake up the young master?
-Don’t!
Isabel shook her head vigorously.

Such a fun and rare opportunity, if you miss it, there won’t necessarily be a next time!
She moved in and out, finally managed to reach out her hand and quietly touched Ivars face.

…… Huh?

Aiwas actually didn’t wake up?
Isabel was a bit surprised.

The last time she had watched Ivars take a nap, she had noticed that Ivars was a very light sleeper. She and Lily merely approached over and Aiwas woke up. If it wasn’t for the fact that he was breathing calmly, it would have been as if he wasn’t asleep at all.

And nowadays, it was rare for Aiwas to sleep so deeply ……

So Isabel carefully sat down on the edge of the bed.

After making this movement, she waited a little longer.

Seeing that Ivars didn’t wake up just because the bed shook slightly, she quietly propped her hand on the other side of Ivars’ body.

She slowly leaned down her body, wanting to come over and kiss Aywas’s forehead.

But just as she lowered her head, she suddenly realized that her long hair naturally fell down and swept over Ivars’ face under the effect of gravity.

Aiwas reflexively frowned slightly, startling Isabel.

Her body immediately leaned back, and as a result the bed visibly shook. This time Ivars was really awake.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Isabel sitting on the edge of the bed with scarlet cheeks, and Aiwas, who was still a bit confused, froze for a while.

…… Oh, I’m still awake. Then sleep.

Such thoughts popped up in his mind and he rolled over before continuing to close his eyes.

Ivars clutched the covers of Isabel in his arms directly to his bosom and curled up into a ball on his side. And Isabel, somewhat flustered, stood up and moved to Lily’s side, the two of them withdrawing a good distance away.

— Did he wake up from his nap? Did he even open his eyes just now?
–No, the young master sleeps like this. Today is already considered heavy, usually you may wake up when you sit down ……

The two whispered and bit their ears.

And on the picture behind them, there was an extra Janice who slightly shook her head and sighed.

Gave you a chance and you didn’t hit it ……

Early update meow!
