Chapter 489: Chapter 385: Daji Could Also Be Considered a Senior, Right?

The position of Minister of the Departnt of Care of Magical Creatures, with its power being significant or negligible depending on how one sees it, was suddenly appointed just before the Queen’s death, clearly intended to play a role in stabilizing the governnt.

Put simply, it was to prevent a new monarch from being too whimsical, hence the remarkably talented Aiwass was chosen for checks and balances, as well as support.

According to the political theories Andre had learned from Star Antimony, Isabel, as the new monarch, would definitely try to wrest control of discourse from Aiwass, who represented Queen Sofia’s trusted aide.

Even if Aiwass was actually helping her, she had to suppress him, otherwise her authority would be clearly lower than that of Aiwass, who had the endorsent of two queens.

For a monarch, this was unacceptable.

...

At the very beginning of her reign, there was already a powerful subject beyond her control—especially since this subject was also quite young.

This was a very dangerous signal.

If not managed well, Aiwass’s power could snowball, and might even eventually usurp the entire governnt.

In the end, she herself might also be ruined in the process.

But Queen Isabel didn’t maintain a distance from Aiwass, nor did she suppress him.

On the contrary.

She exhibited an unprecedented intimacy, including only Aiwass beside her in official portraits.

—Such an attitude must hold so political significance!

The depiction of the new monarch’s succession typically includes the entire team of confidants.

Queen Sofia was younger than Isabel when she ascended the throne, but her portrait included six people—among them the future Grand Arbitrator g, as well as the then Guardian.

This team also beca Sofia’s capable assistants in implenting various reform policies.

But with only one person…

the attitude was very clear.

I trust no one but Aiwass.

In other words.

It was to purge the ministers from the era of Queen Sofia!

“…But why isn’t Queen Isabel afraid of Aiwass betraying her?”

Andre muttered, falling into thought.

Unless…

The position of “Minister of the Departnt of Care of Magical Creatures” was not granted by Queen Sofia, but decided upon by Princess Isabel herself!

From Miss Crowley’s account, she t Aiwass three years ago, which was definitely before Isabel…

and at that ti, Aiwass was just the second son of his family.

Even though the identity of a son of a Founding Family was also quite high…

but important information Andre collected indicated that the Moriarty Family was a clan ford purely by adopted sons.

There would only be one heir in a generation, and the rest would be stripped of the Moriarty surna.

It was for this reason that, over so many years, there had been no collateral disputes over inheritance.

So as long as Aiwass had not inherited the Moriarty Family, he could simply be the surna-less “Aiwass.”

Miss Aleister Crowley could easily take him back to Star Antimony!

—But, if Aiwass was nad the Minister of the Departnt of Care of Magical Creatures, it would be different.

Approaching him would be suspicious enough due to his position as a direct minister to the royalty, especially for Miss Crowley, whose own status was highly sensitive.

After her identity was exposed, she would have to reveal her own status and demonstrate an approachable attitude toward Avalon, thus allowing Aiwass to be removed from the incident.

This would also bring trouble to her family, and at the sa ti, prevent her from staying in Avalon any longer…

because she was ultimately from the “Chamber,” and any contact with Aiwass, the Queen’s trusted aide, would bring him trouble.

Thus, Isabel’s simple move forced Miss Crowley to either harm Aiwass or leave him.

“Such a strong offensive…”

Andre’s expression beca grave.

Just to take Aiwass, the ticulously thinking Queen Isabel had, by granting him the nominal position of Minister of the Departnt of Care of Magical Creatures—a title without real power, departnt, or staff—directly forced Miss Crowley out of Glass Island!

And Aiwass, who was targeted by the Round Table Hall, would beco her excuse to purge the Round Table Hall!

Combining previous information, at this mont, his characterization of Isabel undoubtedly depicted her as a skilled at hiding, cruelly resolute, radical, and cunning iron-fisted queen.

Andre had quietly investigated many tis.

Isabel’s classmates all said she was quite timid and reclusive at school, as adorable as a small animal, even fleeing at the sight of strangers—yet looking at Isabel now, where was the impression of being so fragile and vulnerable?

On closer reflection, Aiwass’s appointnt as the Minister of the Departnt of Care of Magical Creatures precisely coincided with the ti when the only other prince who could contest the throne was cursed to death!

It was also after that, following the assassinations of all of Isabel’s siblings, that she began to act normally again.

Could the nature of a person change in just a month or two?

Of course not.

It could only be a disguise.

A state of seclusion feigned to avoid communication with others!

Why avoid interactions with others?

It was surely out of fear of encountering those “eyes” around her!

The eyes from Star Antimony, Iris Flower, and the Round Table Hall!

And according to Andre’s investigations, Isabel was very affectionate from the very first ti she t Aiwass.

Clearly, they had known each other for a long ti.

It just so happened that after his graduation from middle school, Aiwass disappeared for several months.

After returning, he imdiately seed familiar with Isabel.

Isabel even lent a villa under her na to Aiwass—a loan that was essentially a gift.
