Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 38 Automatic Box Opener
Aiwass had to admit that he underestimated "Lulu" a little bit.

...It seems that his temporary teammate is not as good as he thinks.

After taking a short breath, the "Anne Alexander" by the window made an ethereal, crystal-like voice.

It was clearly still morning, and the sun had just risen.

But her singing made Aiwass immediately think of the summer evening wind blowing through the window, caressing the wind chimes.Carefree peace filled his heart, and the anxiety that had not been revealed in his heart was powerfully soothed.

It was like splashing clear water to extinguish a bonfire.

Aiwass slowly closed his eyes and gradually relaxed his mind...

"—Okay, Mr. Fox."

Lulu's voice came, which made Aiwass, who had always been a little vigilant and leaned against the door listening to the movement outside, instantly opened his eyes.

"Hmm. Hard work."

"It's okay, it's easy. Even if you run with him in your arms, he won't wake up for the next two hours."

The eyes of the beautiful platinum-haired woman shone with confidence, and she said solemnly: "As long as you are not directly hit by a gun, you will never wake up even if you fall to the ground."

...Do you want me to praise you?
What a child.

Miss Lulu must be young.

Aiwass said in his heart.

He nodded slightly and praised: "Well done, Lulu. Thanks to you - we have been taking the child who is awake, and it is very inconvenient to communicate. Little Aiwass was in a deep sleep before and didn't hear Our communication. After he woke up, we also kept whispering... But outside, we can't communicate like this all the time.

"Even if it's a child, the doubts in his heart will gradually accumulate, and he may eventually point out the loopholes in our acting—and once recognized, I'm afraid he will be directly judged."

Aiwass said calmly.

The expression on his face didn't change at all, and he still had the calm feeling that he was sure of winning.

But in Aiwass' heart, he couldn't help but sweat for himself.

——Just a little bit, Aiwass is about to fall asleep.

Even if it was because of his initiative to relax his mind...but the effect of Lulu's song was so good that he was a little surprised.

Her singing is extremely clear and transparent, with a crystal-like ethereal texture.Even if it was emitted from the body of "Annie", it did not attenuate too much.

...The basic skills are so good?
Are you really an Avalonian?
Thinking of this, Aiwass' heart suddenly moved.

In Avalon, the young girl who has mastered the path of beauty...

——"Lulu" can't be Princess Isabel, right?

He remembered that Isabel had the path of beauty, and it was not low in intensity.After the "Cruel Autumn" event in the game, she and Aiwass accompanied the player character to flee to the Eternal Theocracy, and she can be regarded as a member of the protagonist group.

However, whether she is the princess or not does not affect Aiwass' plan.

Rather, if she is real... Aiwass might be more energetic when she flirts with her.

——This is also simple.

Let me test it a little bit.

"...What an amazing singing voice," Aiwass smiled sincerely, and praised sincerely, "Even if you don't become a Transcendent, you must be able to become a famous opera singer in mainland China."

"right!"

Lulu's eyes suddenly lit up, revealing the innocent and happy smile when being praised by someone she respects: "Compared with painting and sculpture, I actually like singing and dancing more..."

"Speaking of it," Aiwass seemed to think of something, "The name 'Lulu'...is it taken from the opera "Lulu's Magic Flute"?"

"Have you heard of Mr. Fox?"

Lulu said happily.

"It's a marvelous opera."

Aiwass affirmed, praising from the bottom of his heart.

That's really remarkable-there are four spells of the path of beauty hidden in this opera, which can only be perceived and comprehended by extraordinary people who have reached a certain level of artistic attainment.

——There are even two that are necessary skills for the [-]th-level advanced profession "Piper" and the [-]th-level advanced profession "Queen of the Night".

"Yes, yes!"

Lulu said happily, her eyes sparkling and her spirits high: "When I was very young... my grandma took me to listen to this drama, and I could sing after listening to it only once. It was the part of "Pa, Pa , Pa, Papagena!" that part!"

"Oh, I know," Aiwass nodded, "the part where Papageno and Papagena dance, right?"

——Don't look at Aiwass's fluent response, but he hasn't read it at all.

But his good screenwriter brother told him that the opera "Lulu's Magic Flute" is based on the opera "The Magic Flute" written by Mozart on Earth, and the content and tune are basically the same.

In this world, its creator is not Mozart, but a fairy named "Lulu".

A goblin is a kind of weak phantom with a childlike innocence and wings.Just as demons are usually of the dark attribute, fairies are usually of the wind attribute.

Aiwass has seen The Magic Flute.Of course, I also know some of the plots... Although I will definitely not be able to sing, it is still possible to be a little cloudy.

"Mr. Fox is amazing, I thought this opera was very unpopular in Avalon!"

Lulu forgot about the promotion ceremony for a while, only the excitement of finding a confidant and a person who agrees with her.

She improvised and sang a few lines: "【Do you belong to me forever? I belong to you forever! Now you are my wife, now you are my true lover...】"

Aiwass immediately felt a kind of joy pouring into his heart.Lightweight strength poured into his heart along with the music, and he even felt that his steps became a little lighter and his body became more balanced—he was even confident that he would not hurt himself by jumping from the third floor.

This is Path of Beauty's Lilting Tunes ability.Can apply the buff effect equivalent to 1% to 300% of the "Speed" and "Balance Stance" spells to teammates within the range.

With the gain provided in this way, it starts out with only one-third effect, and then it gets stronger as you sing.

Lulu's power is about 10% to 15%, which means that she can provide nearly 50% of the dual spell continuous buff for everyone when she sings.The most important thing is that this is a power - that is to say, it does not consume mana.

——Okay, this strength is already very good.

Aiwass fully confirmed that this was probably Princess Isabel who did not run away.

It is impossible for ordinary "all-rounders" to accumulate such strong basic skills.Almighty usually means mediocrity—

But she really is all-powerful.

With her talent and foundation, she might be able to keep up with Aiwass' advancement speed.

The only problem is that the little girl is not wary enough.

He didn't even set up any tricks, or take the initiative to lower the other party's vigilance. He just asked a casual question and she said it all.

It is simply a fully automatic box opening machine that can walk.

... I hope that her tutor can train her acting skills well before meeting Her Royal Highness in the dream world next time.

If you do this again, I'm too embarrassed to fool you.

Aiwass never bullied children.

He stretched out his hand, pressing down slightly.Like a band conductor, he signaled Lulu to be quiet.

Sure enough, she immediately stopped chanting and became quiet.

"Are you still nervous?"

Aiwass showed a friendly smile: "Is it much better?"

"...Yes, thank you!" Lulu suddenly realized.

It turned out that Mr. Fox felt that I was too nervous, so he deliberately chatted to relieve my psychological pressure!

"—don't call me 'you'."

Aiwass emphasized: "Julio Alexander, you are Annie. You can call me Julio...or my dear."

"...I'll call you Julio."

Lulu whispered.

Speaking of which, she suddenly realized something: "Wait, aren't we going to find Bishop Mathers?"

"Well, we're not going."

"Huh...w-why? I know him, he's very strong...he's the gravekeeper of the royal family, and he can definitely protect us."

"I believe what you say - since you say so, he must be strong, strong enough to protect us."

Aiwass first affirmed Lulu's words, and then said: "So, did you bring the letter?"

"...What letter?" Lulu said with some confidence.

At that moment, she felt that she had done something wrong, said something stupid, or lost something important...

"I mean the original of the threatening letter."

"No……"

"Yeah, neither have I. So we don't know what the man wrote in the letter. At the same time, I don't know Bishop Mathers, so it's hard to play his student well."

But I actually have a way to get him to protect us...

Lulu thought, but swallowed the words back.

She is somewhat wary - saying this is tantamount to exposing her identity in reality!

Aiwass squinted his eyes like a fox, and said slowly: "You should also have the task of 'leaving from the cathedral', right?"

"Yes. Let me leave the cathedral and go to the Legal Plaza." Lulu responded immediately.

"How many points?"

"100 points."

"Very low. Me too."

Aiwass commented: "The higher the difficulty, the more challenging the task, the higher the score. Since Bishop Mathers is so powerful, why are there so few points for voluntarily leaving the cathedral he is sheltering and going to a dangerous place?"

"...Because he couldn't provide us with shelter?"

Lulu hugged the child, her eyes widened, as if she had an unbelievable feeling of being betrayed by an acquaintance: "Why is this..."

"It's not necessarily a refusal of asylum, it's also possible that he wasn't there at all. Or there was something unexpected and we had to leave early."

Aiwass said leisurely: "In that case, we were driven onto the street empty-handed...I'm afraid the situation will get worse.

"Look, none of these missions intentionally put us to death, right? That means that these missions are conducive to our ultimate goal."

"... 'once and for all'? Or 'live longer'?"

Lulu hesitated: "But you...you are the way of dedication, and I am the way of beauty. Neither of us has much fighting power."

Aiwass' heart moved.

Doesn't she have the quest "Beginning of It All"?

"So, instead, we have to leave the cathedral early."

Aiwass leaned against the door, explaining his plan: "To prepare weapons."

In his plan, there is no need to hide the other party - "Lulu" will not become his weapon and consumables, and making it clear in advance will not make her vigilant; she will not talk to others alone, so there is no need to Worried about leaks.

In this case, Aiwass needs to speak clearly and clearly.Let the other party trust yourself, believe in your plan, and understand your purpose.

In this way, it is possible for her to fully implement Aiwass' plan without suddenly adding some "own ideas".

Aiwass knows how to bring newcomers.

"A weapon...a gun?"

Lulu was a little worried: "Do you know where to find a gun?
"If it really doesn't work... I may have a way, maybe I can find a very powerful weapon. But after all, it was 14 years ago, and I'm not sure if it's there now..."

"Of course I know."

Aiwass calmly replied: "The Pelican Bar is near the Legal Plaza."

"...Ah, I know!"

Lulu blurted out: "It's the news about Mr. Aiwass, right? He... eh? Aiwass?"

She froze for a moment, picked up the boy in her arms, and put it carefully before her eyes.

"You guessed right, he is the 'Aiwass'. 'Our husband and wife' is obviously dead in the original history, so his surname is Moriarty now."

Aiwass lazily replied: "It's better to say, you finally found out about it.

"But you didn't understand my plan. I said I was going to the Pelican to get a weapon—not that I was going to buy a gun."

"...Extraordinary item?"

Lulu asked cautiously: "Do you... have access to the Pelican Bar?"

"Do not."

Aiwass closed his eyes, and replied softly: "The weapon I prepared is called [Sherlock Hermes]. You are right, both of our paths are auxiliary, so even if we take As far as weapons are concerned, what we really need is to find combat partners.

"I believe that even if we had no communication or agreement before...Mr. Sherlock will definitely come to the Pelican Bar to meet us.

"—To be precise, they came to meet me and Mister Knight."
