Pastor's Tantra

Chapter 71 Unlucky John Eden

"No, no, get out of class is over, students. If we continue talking, the dean may come looking for trouble..."

With the mission completed, Aiwass smiled happily and waved his hand, turning off the speaker.

There was another burst of lament among the students.

"Why is it over?"

"Will you come again next time, Aiwass?"

"You have to ask the professor about this!"

"Professor, why are you holding such a small hourglass today?"

"That's right. Didn't you take it for an hour and a half last time?"

……ah? What about me?

Hearing this, Professor Bader was stunned.

His eyes suddenly widened, like a stage actor, he shrunk his neck comically and spread his hands, making the students laugh. Seeing this, the old professor himself laughed.

"Okay, keep your word. I'll give you an hour and a half next time!"

The old professor rubbed his hands and said happily.

Because he said this without turning on the speaker, only Aiwass, Lily and Haina beside him heard it in the noisy lecture theater.

Haina smiled and scratched her head, not knowing what to say.

But Aiwass's eyes lit up.

Professor Bard’s reaction is very important!

Relying on this reaction, he probably figured out Professor Bard's character.

Since students dare to joke with him, it means that he probably has a very mild temper; and in this case, his class is so boring, but when Aiwass came in, no one was whispering, skipping class or It's eating, which shows that the students still respect the old professor.

Haina's attitude towards him was also very natural and respectful - she probably didn't have the brains or acting skills to pretend, so Professor Bader's character was probably really good.

And Aiwass just deliberately taught some knowledge that did not belong to this class, but the professor did not respond.

This shows that he is not the kind of old-fashioned person who is most common in Avalon and likes to talk about rules and inferiority in everything.

There is no doubt that he would make a quality mentor.

This is Aiwass's second purpose: to show his excellence and find a good mentor for himself.

Now it seems that this second purpose can also be accomplished!

At Wangli Law University, students are required to choose their own mentor and join a certain "class." Otherwise, they can only be regarded as auditors and cannot get the notes approved by the instructor to go to certain places.

This tutor must teach himself a certain course, and after joining the class, the student's daily life is generally taken care of by this tutor. Students who belong to one professor can be considered to be in the same class.

There are usually not many students in a class, and they are not necessarily from the same grade.

Previously, Aiwass had planned to join the class of Senior Haina or Princess Isabel... But he just thought about it. With their personalities, most of the tutors they found were professional tutors, and they would definitely not teach him.

And in that case, your actions might still be watched.

But Aiwass was not sure who in the school was his adoptive father, so he was very cautious.

The fact that Professor Bard can be called a "professor" means that he is the highest-level mentor, the same level as his adoptive father James Moriarty. He has the highest authority and can approve the highest-authority notes. Aiwass could hear clearly before... He was able to know the next day that he had gone to the Palace of Silver and Tin for a banquet last night, which shows that he is also an upper-class person in Avalon, at least he has a wide network of contacts.

Good character, good character, open-minded, sufficient resources, and wide connections.

Crucially, Bard taught him that he was not yet a transcendent being—something that was very important to Aiwass.

Because Aiwass does not need a mentor to plan his promotion route, an ordinary mentor can allow him to move more freely.

——If you take this into consideration, then he is the perfect mentor!

"Goodbye, Professor!"

Suddenly, a little girl with silver hair ran over and said with a smile: "There is also Teacher Aiwass!"

Aiwass waved his hand, just chuckled but did not answer.

But starting with her, it seemed like a switch was turned on.

Other students also ran over and said goodbye to Aiwass with a smile.

"Are you free tonight, Aiwass?"

A cheerful young man with red hair came over and invited him warmly: "Want to go have a drink? I'm treating you!"

"—Or do you want to go to the White Shoes Club?"

The girl with long dark blue hair came over and said with a smile: "Do I have the honor of inviting Teacher Aiwass?"

"Do you play tennis, Mr. Aiwass?"

"I heard that classmate Aiwass used to be on the cricket team!"

After a while, the students all rushed up. They easily accepted the setting that there was a "very powerful mysterious transfer student" in the class, and were full of curiosity and enthusiasm, actively wanting to become friends with Aiwass - although strictly speaking Aiwass was not actually Not a transfer student.

Aiwass handled the dialogue with everyone in an orderly manner, but basically the result was the same - that is, to refuse first, but not to die. He didn't reply to anyone's question specifically, and soon there were many people on the podium.

But Professor Bard did not take the opportunity to leave, but stood back and waited. Haina didn't dare to leave, so she just stayed and watched.

——This feeling is quite novel.

This was the first time she had seen a crowd so close to her, but they were not here to find her. Apart from the novelty, I also feel a little empty inside...

Although I usually find it a bit troublesome, suddenly no one cares about me and I feel a bit lonely...

When someone asked, "Do you always read at home?" and "How do you know so much history?" Aiwass just smiled and said nothing.

"--Yes."

But at this moment, Lily behind him couldn't help but show off for him. She proudly raised her head and chest, and replied seriously: "Aiwass read a lot of books when he was at home!"

"……at home?"

Hearing someone questioning this softly, Lily suddenly realized that she might have said something she shouldn't have said.

Will she continue to hide her identity...?

"Ah, that's right."

Under people's surprised eyes, Aiwass smiled and explained: "Actually, Lily is my personal maid.

"Of course, she is also qualified to go to school here. She always likes to read at home, just like me. It was me who had an accident and delayed her...otherwise we would have come together two months ago."

That was a white lie he sent out to protect Lily.

not like this--

Lily, who was fully aware that she was able to go to school only because of Aivasto's relationship, subconsciously pursed her lips - because if not, she would have to defend Aiwassto.

It wasn't that Aiwass had delayed her. She herself is incidental.

This is completely Aiwass devaluing himself for her...

But what Lily didn't expect was that she revealed her identity as a maid on the first day of school. The doubts and contempt that could be imagined did not come.

What surprised her was that the students' attitudes were very friendly and not aggressive at all.

"It's okay. In fact, I already guessed it."

"That is to say, how can any friend have such an attitude... It's just that everyone deliberately doesn't mention it."

"Is your name Lily? You are so beautiful! Do you want to dance tonight?"

"Do you usually read books together?"

These students who are adaptable to the path of dedication are relatively gentle and kind-hearted. Among the six departments, they also have the best average personality.

Seeing that she was so easily accepted by her classmates, Lily felt her eyes become moist for a moment.

She never thought that she, who was abandoned by her biological parents and had her last name erased, would one day be lucky enough to come into contact with these friendly classmates...

This is entirely because of Master Aiwas's kindness to her!

"Ai, Aiwass, long time no see!"

At this moment, Aiden, who had brown curly hair that almost covered his eyes, finally squeezed over, said hello to Aiwass, and whispered: "I'll see you if I have something to do... I'll go outside first. Wait for you!"

"Long time no see, Aiden."

Aiwass was not surprised. He just smiled and nodded at him and said, "See you later."

He did remember this person and even looked for him specifically during the lecture.

This man is called "John Aiden" and he is a relatively important supporting character. At least he lived longer...much longer than Haina.

Maybe it's because idiots live a long time, and he wasn't even dead when Aiwass burped.

The reason why Aiwass calls him Aiden instead of John is not because of alienation. It's because there are too many people named "John" in Avalon. Among the more than twenty boys in their middle school class, there are eight Johns, and there are even two with the same name.

Aiden has a very important long-term mission. It involves the return of the Moon Child, and it even integrates into the main plot later.

And "Aiwass" also has him in his own memory - this is one of the few same-sex friends that Aiwass had in middle school. He can't be called a childhood friend, but he can be regarded as an acquaintance.

In Aiwass's impression, Aiden is a friend with a good personality. Perhaps because his mother was a pastor, he was taught to be gentle and kind to others since he was a child. His father was an antique dealer, but his business was not very big. But it can barely be considered a small fortune.

Even though his pocket money is not particularly large, little Aiden is very loyal and always likes to take the initiative to treat guests. Moreover, he has a gentle personality and always apologizes when he quarrels with others. The only shortcomings are that he is not very smart and he is a bit lustful... To put it simply, he is an easy catcher.

In addition, he is unlucky and has a bad eye for people, so he always meets bad women. Every time a bad woman blows up all the gold coins, she usually gets kicked again. He was sad for a while, and then he was seduced by the next bad woman.

Players jokingly call him the "bad girl trap", so much so that he has even developed a plot inertia - every time he sees Aiden rushing over and excitedly saying "I'm in love again", I know him right away without even looking. It's definitely not a good thing.

...Looking at how he looks now, he must have been targeted.

Aiwass's special response, which was obviously different from others, made others look at Aiden, who was usually unremarkable, in surprise.

But they soon reacted: "Were you and Aiwass classmates before?"

"Ah...yes." Aiden responded in a low voice as he was not used to being stared at by so many people.

"Then bring him here for a drink, Aiden!"

"Invite him to play..."

"Do you know what flowers he likes, Aiden-san?"

"...Ah, wait, wait, wait... let me ask, let me ask..."

Aiden, who was talking to so many people at the same time for the first time, felt his scalp numb for a moment.

He hurriedly squatted down and nimblely moved to Aiwass' side, and then asked in an uncertain voice in a low voice: "Can I tell them about you, Aiwass? Is there anything I can't tell them?"

“Yes,” Aiwass nodded and smiled, “You can say anything.

"It's better to say, please chat with them for me... I still have something to tell the professor."

He believed in Aiden's character and would definitely not discredit him.

"Ah, no problem."

Hearing that Aiwass wanted to ask him to do something, he nodded readily.

The classmates also heard that Aiwass was busy, so they all had the good sense not to disturb him, but instead went to chat with Aiden.

After all, no matter how inconspicuous Aiden is, they are still young people dedicated to the road, have similar personalities, and have been acquaintances for two months. No matter how enthusiastic a person is, they are always more comfortable dealing with people they know. If you just want to ask some questions to satisfy your curiosity, or invite him to play, it is more convenient and polite to go to Aiden - a middleman must be invited to the banquet.

After the students had almost left, Aiwass had time to turn around and politely asked the professor softly:

"Professor Bard...are you still short of students?"
