"I see, I see."
Now Gemstone immediately understood what Lovi meant, and couldn't help but make a joke.
"Hahaha, a reunion after 1,500 years, and with the Knight King no less, sounds so romantic. You're much more dashing than I was in my youth."
"Tsk!"
There was a sound of something breaking. The group turned their heads to look and saw that Ayaka Sajou's plate had been pierced by a fork.
"...Ah, I'm so sorry, Your Highness, I may have used a little too much strength."
"..."
"...Human emotions are truly complex and ever-changing."
"However, you really have committed many sins. Don't suffer a great loss because of this one day."
Gemstone shook his head, not really thinking anything of it, just chuckled a few times. After all, this wasn't the first time he'd seen the mysterious Sajō Ayaka, but it was the first time he'd seen her in London, which was why he found it interesting.
If he hadn't known about this little girl's eccentric nature, he might have invited her to become a magical girl today.
However, it seems that the three in Luo Wei's family are better now.
"Alright, I'll be staying at the Clock Tower for the next seven days. No, I should say in what's called Inner London. You can come find me there anytime you want to leave."
"Well, I see."
Lovi nodded to the Gemstone Elder.
"Then I'll trouble you. But if possible, I hope you won't just be a bystander this time. I'd also like to ask you to lend a hand when it comes to making the real decision. After all, you are human, both in the past and now."
"Humans..."
Gemstone Elder nodded thoughtfully.
"I see."
Just as the old gem keeper was about to get up and leave, he suddenly seemed to remember something and turned back.
There's something I almost forgot.
"?"
Luo Wei looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"Isn't this the city you mentioned that's about to be built? So a group of people came to me. They want me to be the general chairman of this city."
"?"
Luo Wei's expression became even more puzzled.
However, I can understand the true thoughts of those magicians.
After all, Aiwass is an "angel" and not human. His existence as a guide and symbol is enough. Giving him a real position would lower his status. So, after much consideration, the nominal leader was decided to be the second magician, Gemstone.
"So why don't you take on the role?"
"It's easy for you to say, but I don't have the time to take on that position. The Grand Marshal of the Demonic Path is just a nominal title. I don't need to care about anything. Even if the Clock Tower is destroyed, I'm too lazy to do anything. So I just leave it hanging. But I can't take on the role of Chairman of the Board."
"This position clearly requires decision-making and effort, and its impact could be on the future and direction of the entire world. This is much more exciting than organizations like Chaldea in other worlds. Once it is built up and put into operation, this position will be extremely busy, so I cannot take it on."
"I'm having a headache," said the old man with a headache.
His irresponsibility is notorious even in the entire world of demonic cultivation.
If he were to give him the decision-making power over the city, and he were to disappear, none of the guys below would submit to anyone else, and a fierce infighting would definitely break out. The consequences would be dire. Therefore, he decided to pass the responsibility back to Luo Wei.
Since he was in charge anyway, it's appropriate for him to take control.
"So... I've already handed over the nomination for that position to you, and it shouldn't be long before you take office. So, keep up the good work, kid, and I look forward to the new ending you create."
"Wait a minute..."
Before he could finish speaking, Gemstone Elder raised his hand and created a dimensional rift, then his figure vanished right before their eyes.
He's gone.
"Yes...he's gone, that old man."
The thought of the balloon being kicked back to his side made Luo Wei's eyelids twitch involuntarily.
'Looks like I need to find a capable assistant to help with management, but who can I ask? It's so hard to guess…'
"Achoo!!"
At that moment, Weber, who was traveling near the Iskandar Mausoleum and completely unaware of all the changes, unconsciously sneezed loudly.
……
As soon as the meeting with the Jewel King ended, Lovi took Sajyo Ayaka back to his home. Because he was very interested in Sajyo Ayaka, Aiwass followed along, so that even if something unexpected happened, he could subdue Sajyo Ayaka immediately.
An hour later.
A black limousine, 'randomly picked up' on the street, with a driver, drove steadily to the vicinity of the familiar manor. After the driver 'accidentally revealed his family background, name, and the owner's situation,' the other party happily drove away.
Aside from the familiar old butler's somewhat strange expression when he saw Sajō Aika beside him upon entering, there was really nothing else wrong.
"Butler, take Aigo to choose a room, make sure it's close to mine. Try to fulfill any of her requests afterward, and if any problems arise, come to me or Aiwas."
After getting out of the car, Luo Wei gave his butler some special instructions.
The old butler couldn't help but whisper a reminder: "Young master, Miss Reines will be unhappy. Even if you are benevolent and want to expand the family fortune, you still have to deal with Miss Reines first..."
"..."
Luo Wei was speechless; he knew this guy had probably misunderstood something.
He was about to explain, but the old butler immediately adopted an attitude of "I understand, I understand everything," and "I certainly won't tell Reines," leaving him speechless.
Sajo Aika beamed with delight at this.
All she could hear was that phrase, "Move closer to my room."
"Hehe... As expected, Your Highness may seem resistant on the surface, but you actually really want to get close to me..."
Hearing her clearly off-key voice, Luo Wei couldn't help but cover his head.
"Actually, love is something..."
Aiwas spoke softly.
"Shut up first."
"...Never mind, let's not talk about that. When are you planning to leave?"
"Go say goodbye to the others, then make some preparations and leave the day after tomorrow, since time waits for no one."
"Do you need me to come with you?"
"Need not."
Lowe shook his head. "If you hadn't stayed here to keep an eye on things, they would definitely have started fighting again, and if I were always under your protection, it would have been difficult for me to grow."
"You're right."
Aiwass nodded: "Only by going out and seeing for yourself can you know what the road ahead is like. As your teacher, I'm glad you have this idea."
"However, even when I'm not around, don't neglect your training. I've already transferred all the knowledge about the Book of Laws, as well as the knowledge from the 103,000 magic books I've collected, into your mind. You must remember to study them; I'll test you when I return."
"Ah... but I'm going to visit someone, not go on a picnic!"
"Time can be made, and I believe you can do it. Time waits for no one."
Just as Aiwas finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears:
"Oh! Crowley! Thank goodness you're finally back. That damned vampire is causing trouble down there again. Because of the summoning ritual, our workshop has been destroyed, so the seal is no longer under control. Come and deal with it!"
Upon seeing Rowe return, Rafe, who had been forced to flee the underground in a panic because Rita had rushed out of the jar, ran towards him as if he had seen a savior. However, when he saw Aiwas standing to the side, his attitude immediately became respectful, clearly showing a difference in treatment.
"Should I go and kill that little guy down there completely?"
"Forget it, let's go down and check the situation together. After all, she's a very important source of material, and it would be a real shame to just abandon her like this."
"Honestly, there are quite a few annoying things... even the time for saying goodbye is so tight."
Luo Wei sighed, and as he spoke, he began to walk.
"Let's get rid of her completely before we set off."
However, before that, please allow me to say something: "The inhibitory force of the groove, damn it."
Alaya Gaia: "..."
Chapter 162 Execution by Light
--boom! !
Boom—!!
Clang!
Heavy banging echoed incessantly in the underground space. The once relatively tidy underground workshop had been almost completely destroyed due to the impact of magic and the intense tremors caused by the release of a vampire from prison.
If it weren't for the fact that this place is underground, and that it was already on the verge of becoming ruins, judging from the extent of the damage to the surrounding environment, if she had been thrown into the Clock Tower, it would have turned the world upside down, probably causing those monarchs to bleed with envy.
Dropping this thing into the under-construction London would definitely create an unprecedented and massive shockwave.
"See, that's how it is. Because I sensed something was wrong in advance, I quickly ran out and closed the barrier inside in time. Otherwise, if this guy had rushed out, it would have been a big problem."
Rafe followed behind Rowe, his steps becoming somewhat tense. He knew that when they came out this time, a lot of data hadn't been transferred in time, and now that the vampire was causing chaos inside, he was genuinely worried about his data on the progress of the mysterious resurgence and the knowledge imparted by Aiwass.
"That sounds really irritable..."
Looking at the constantly shaking walls above him and the falling dust, Luo Wei stroked his chin, roughly guessing that Rita was starting to wreak havoc inside.
"But how did she escape? Even if the workshop's functions were destroyed, wasn't that guy torn to pieces by Aiwass? If she had been kept a closer eye on him, there wouldn't have been such a commotion, right?"
"Well..."
Upon hearing this, Rafe's expression froze.
He was so excited by Aiwass's appearance that he threw himself into his new project and forgot about the vampire being imprisoned next door.
He simply couldn't bring himself to say such a thing.
"Really... but it's good that you're alright."
