When the moon god Shin and the sun god Shamash are in shift, it means that the night has passed and the light has come.

The sky is still pure blue, but when the sun rises, it is like ink dripping into the water, and layers of light are rendered, dyeing the clouds on the horizon into a golden light.

Ah Zhai changed into a snow-white chunik and wore a roll robe of the same color, the embroidery was decorated with the pattern of the Yassim flower, he wore an azure tassel and a pendant of the same color, and his slightly curly black hair was obediently attached to his white cheeks.

The boy knelt in front of the statue of Lord Marduk, and prayed attentively, and in front of the shrine lay food and flowers for the gods, such as rice, lambs, and beef...... In this country where the gods are worshipped, as a priest, Ah Zhai needs to complete a complete set of worship every morning according to the relevant procedures, although Ah Zhai does not actually believe in the existence of gods in the world, but he regards it as a job and does it dutifully.

After deciding to enter the palace to study with the crown prince, he often lost his mind when he was teaching in Elishya, and he didn't really think much about it, but his inexplicable thoughts would drift away, and now even if he knelt in front of the statue and recited the "Enuma Sutra", he could not concentrate.

"What are you worried about, or what are you afraid of?" After the morning prayer ceremony, Elishya walked back to the courtyard with his disciples, standing under the trellises in the courtyard, the old man stretched out his thin hand and touched the young man's head lovingly, "You have been looking terrible these days. ”

"Teacher, I was so nervous that I couldn't sleep at night. When I went to accompany the emperor's eldest son to study, I was worried that I would not be able to bring him a good influence. In fact, when he first knew that the people of Babylon used multiplication, he was very surprised, and after communicating with Elishya, he found that people have used multiplication tables very widely in their lives now, but they have not formed a complete form in later generations, so he started to make a summary.

After so many worlds, Ah Otaku also understands that those things that are too ahead of the current era and may have an epoch-making impact on the current era are not allowed, such as gunpowder, such as antibiotics, etc., but on the basis of combining the existing of this era, it is still okay to push forward a little.

"Why be afraid? Jin, you are a good enough child, God will bless you. The old man smiled slightly, "What's more, it's not so much to accompany His Highness to study, but to teach him lessons, Your Highness is only six years old now, he is still a naughty child, and he dislikes an old man with a wrinkled face like us, and you are different, you are a few years older than him and you can just get along with him." ”

"It's because I understand that I'm worried." When he was in the Overworld, he had heard that a man could develop a habit in twenty-one days, and now that he had taken over the duties of priest of morning prayer in the temple, he had become accustomed to talking to Elishya after the morning prayer, which would make him happy in his heart, although most of the time they were discussing cuneiform records on clay tablets.

"My child, what happened to make you so unconfident?" Elishia looked at his disciple gently, perhaps the boy himself may not have realized that there was a rare mercy in him, even though most of the priests in the temple today were more focused on power and power, they worshipped the gods not to seek protection but to stand high enough to look down on all beings, and so did their king, Elishia did not deny that people sought power to worship power, but the death of Assyria was vivid, and the old man was worried about Neobabylon from the heart.

War brings wealth and glory but cannot hide the essence of plunder and appropriation, as was the case with the Assyrian dynasty in the past, but after gaining freedom, Neobabylon gradually began to slide in this direction, such insight and sobriety made Elishia feel melancholy and even tossed and turned, he did not know how to persuade his king, because in a sense the king was naturally wary of the temple, and his worries and warnings were likely to make the king think differently, Pushing the already precarious reality will eventually lead to a completely uncontrollable ending.

Just when he was in trouble, he met the young man, his only disciple now, when he once thought that this child would be tempted by the devil, but he broke out of the cocoon and became a butterfly, and got a new life from the gloomy past, he had his own principles, his beliefs, he was sympathetic but respectful to the weak, and he was not afraid to admire the strong, so he was happy when King Napo Palasa asked Jin to accompany the emperor's eldest son.

In the end, this is the result of the two-way choice between the king and the temple, the king needs a priest who is close to the royal family, and he also hopes to be able to subtly influence the next generation of kings, whether it is to govern the country or the attitude towards the temple, but this is almost a win-win result is to calculate the friendship and future of the two children.

"My lord, just as you value me, I also want to be able to teach my students well, so the more I care about it, the more I am constrained." Ah Zhai accompanied the old man to walk forward slowly, with deep melancholy in his eyes, and regardless of whether the eldest son of the emperor is his lover who has been entangled for several worlds, even if he is, but he is also destined to be the future heir of this country, in the past, Ah Zhai also had a dark thought of smearing the child who is now like a blank sheet of paper according to his own ideas, but now he can't do anything.

What innocent is the child? Even if that person is really the person who made him sad in the last world, but now he is an ignorant child, with no memories of the past, they can't even be said to be the same person, and in the past few months, Ah Zhai feels that he really likes the country of Babylon and the people who live here, even if he comes into contact with very few people, but whether it is Ulu's loyalty, Mersidis's intentions or Elishya's cultivation, they all make him feel warm, and if he really teaches a future qualified king, it will collapse, so how pitiful should the lives of the people living in this country be?

In the end, the only person who really has a disagreement with him is that person, all the hurt and sweetness are the business of the two of them, how can he be so selfish to implicate everyone?

"I don't deny that a good teacher has an absolute impact on a child's growth, but Jin, you are not the only one who teaches the emperor's eldest son, you don't have to and shouldn't put all the responsibility on your own person, even if you are as wise as the god Marduk, you will hand over the world to people to govern." Elishya blinked and smiled slyly.

"Is this your disciple?" While the master and apprentice were talking, a group of servants approached with a tall man in their arms.

"Your Majesty, good day." Elishya took Ah Zhai to meet him, bowed slightly to the comer, Ah Zhai followed the position one step behind Erishya, and also saluted, in fact, even if the old man did not call him.

"I heard your name is Jin?" Napo Parasa is about thirty years old, in the best years of a man's life, he is tall and strong, handsome and three-dimensional, his long military career makes his whole person like a long knife, in the usual days hidden in the sheath like a gentle nobleman, but once the knife is drawn, like a thunderbolt, unstoppable.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Ah Zhai calmly looked at the emperor in front of him, he had curly and dense black hair, a short mustache, a high nose, and a sharp sea blue eyes, but what attracted Ah Zhai's attention more was the man's bare arms, which could see strong and full muscles, Ah Zhai felt that he was standing in front of him like a weak chicken cub.

"The temple is trying to convince me that you will teach my eldest son, the future king, but I don't think you have the ability." Napo Palasa stared at the young man in front of him intently, and felt surprised in his heart, many years of Rong Ma Liang Wei made him always have a bloody aura on his body, many times even the veterans under his command will be afraid of his might, but the young man in front of him can stand calmly in front of him, as if the two sides are equal, he is not afraid of himself at all.

"Is Your Majesty trying to take the exam?" Ah Zhai looked at the person in front of him calmly, if he was thrown into this world at the beginning, I am afraid that he would be afraid of the king who accumulated a lot of power in front of him, but in several worlds, he was once the overlord of the party with great power, and he was also so downtrodden that he lived on the street and relied on a paintbrush, but after all, he gradually bloomed in the polishing of time, even if he was still a thin chick with oriental blood on the outside, but he already had a strong heart.

"My people of Babylon are valiant and warlike, but Elishia, my dear High Priest, I do not think that your disciples will be able to defeat my soldiers." Napo Parasa paused for a moment and laughed at Elishya.

"Your Majesty, although Jin is not fierce in terms of force, he has a wonderful brain." Elishya opened her mouth unhurriedly, looking at Napo Palasa's eyes as if she was looking at an awkward child, Ah Zhai couldn't help but smile in her heart as she watched from the sidelines, I have to say that his master is really a wonderful old man, he can always easily make others cry and laugh.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is willing to compete with the generals under your command." Ah Zhai rolled his sleeves with his hand, his expression was flat, "I heard that you have a young general of the same age as your subordinates, Ashur, and your subordinates originally asked to fight him." ”
