He ...... No, how did you survive?"

Magellan was silent, he did not know how to answer the countess's question. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"He doesn't know," Athena shook her head, "maybe no one in the world knows." ”

"Some unexplained mysterious power that has saved you from death sounds like a hero. ”

"If this world has no secrets in your eyes, then you will leave forever because of boredom, like the old gods. ”

"What are the Old Gods?"

"I don't know, I just know a few ancient gods. ”

"They ......"

Athena smiled softly, and Magellan's eyes were dark, but he could imagine the goddess's expression, and knew very well how unpredictable and dangerous it meant.

"The gods of heaven, the gods of the earth, the gods of time, the gods of light, those are a group of great masters of the universe, but they are still gone after all, the current world is not the world of the gods. ”

"Why do you always describe them in such a vague way?"

"How would you describe the sun?"

"I've never seen a god ...... like the real thing"

"Of course, you can't have seen the Old Gods. ”

"That's true. ”

The countess abruptly removed the mask from Magellan's face, bringing the dangerous conversation to an abrupt end.

"Meow ......"

Miss Betty looked down at a haggard Magellan, with an indescribable mockery as always.

"What's that?"

The countess knew that Magellan was referring to the mask.

This is a very rare mask, wooden, the overall shape is a square, carved with exaggerated facial features, emphasized with bright red paint, it looks very unrestrained, but with a strange solemnity.

"This is a very rare supernatural power that I bought from a merchant that allows me to invade a person's heart, and of course, I have never succeeded, because if the invaded person has the slightest emotion of resistance, the connection will fail. The countess smiled and placed the mask beside her, "At least until today, I always thought that the merchant had lied to me. ”

"So in fact he didn't lie to you, that's great news. ”

"Don't you feel like you're abnormal? No one can stand being prying inside, and even the slightest vague thought will put an end to this dangerous magic. ”

"I just...... A greater danger was felt. ”

The countess smiled wryly.

"I just...... So disappointed. ”

The young apprentices cheered, they saw the camp.

......

The Doge of Emunchet welcomed the countess's procession in front of the splendid Temple of Horus.

The long-buried structure was rediscovered shortly after the last flood, and the intact temple amazed everyone with its grandeur and exquisiteness.

The Doge was very enthusiastic about this vast procession, she liked the countess, and she did not forget Amon and Magellan.

On the way back from the desert, everyone tacitly did not disturb the countess, Magellan knew that Helen's disappointment was obvious to all, but he didn't quite understand why everyone seemed to believe that he would not make the countess angry.

In any case, at least for now, he didn't have to worry about the countess's self-pity, which could burst out at any moment, the Governor was an empathetic beauty who always made people smile.

Night soon fell.

......

"Emanchet is a very different place, isn't it, Professor Magellan. ”

Amon gently stroked a large heavy book on his lap and smiled as he watched the crowd dancing in the courtyard.

"When the scope is extended to the extent of Emanquet, there is no place that is not unique. ”

"Worthy of Professor Magellan. Amon laughed and picked up the wine glass from the table, "You know, all the magic of Emankai comes from divine power, so in ancient Emankai there were no magicians, only priests. ”

Magellan nodded.

"Ah, it's a shame that you don't drink. Amon shook his head, "My teacher, Bartes, who disappeared under the light of science, once asked me a question, if all the gods of Emunchet died, would there still be magic in this world?"

"It seems...... Involving theological ......"

The countess would soon realize this, and she tried to understand the old gods, and the closest thing to the answer was theology. ”

"So this question involves the definition of a god, which is quite basic...... Very troublesome. ”

"I'm not lucky, only Butters of the gods would talk to mortals out of boredom, and because of that, she was never willing to tell mortals the answers to their questions. But sometimes, the answer will come out on its own. ”

Amon raised his hand, and a breeze blew in the distance.

"The divine power has not gone away, and if you can cast the magic, you will find that it has not changed at all. You thought in the temple that the remnants of the god's divine power had not dissipated, but now?"

"At least for now, I don't want to figure out such a hassle. ”

"When the Countess asks you for the answer one day, you get a real headache. Amon picked another wine from the table and poured it into his own glass, "The countess never fails and never gives up, she will soon notice the problem and ...... very quickly"

"Spare me......"

Magellan groaned and reclined into the comfy couch.

......

"It's not for nothing on this trip, at least more than you think. ”

The countess wore a white trench coat and a white wide-brimmed hat, with slender and charming curves, and when she stood at the gate of the Duke of Wellington's mansion, Magellan in ordinary clothes became her servant, especially when Magellan carried a gift box in his hand.

"Please come in, sir. ”

The countess nodded elegantly, then raised her right hand towards Magellan, elegantly revealing the sapphire on the back of her hand, and walked into the Duke's mansion with a smile.

"Sister Helen!"

The Duke did not appear, and the two barons shouted to welcome them, and they rushed towards Magellan, and then threw themselves into the arms of the countess with the gift box.

"Good morning!"

The countess followed the twins towards the room, and Magellan followed wordlessly.

"Sister Helen, please be seated!"

"Sister Helen, please have tea!"

The twins obediently invited the countess to sit on the sofa, and then while the boy handed over the tea, the girl opened the gift box.

"Kitten!"

The girl screamed and threw herself into the countess's arms, and carefully lifted Miss Betty in her hand.

"Meow ......"

Hearing the bewilderment in that call, Magellan almost burst out laughing, he had been taunted countless times by this proud kitten, and had never thought that there would be such a day.

"Take good care of her. ”

With these words, the countess left with Magellan.

The gate is closed.

"Kitten...... You can talk!"

"Meow!"
