Pharaoh

When the scorching sun was shining in the sky, the young and handsome Egyptian priest raised his hand to slightly block the glare of the sun, his sky-blue pupils narrowed slightly, and then opened again.

He stood outside the door of the Boy King's bedroom, and the guards in front of the door bowed to him.

The beautiful maid who received the will humbly lowered her head, beckoning the high priest to follow her in.

When Seth walked through the stone pillars to the inner room and saw the figure of the young prince through the half-open door, there was no surprise on his indifferent face.

While waiting outside the bedroom, he had already learned from the attendants that Wang Di had come here last night.

That Sisi guy is so nosy!

In fact, Seth, who got the news from his meddling guard earlier, thought dissatisfiedly.

Anyway, the handsome Priest Seth would never admit that he was relieved from the bottom of his heart when he heard that Brother Wang was no longer awkward.

Although he hadn't gotten up yet, the young pharaoh seemed to have woken up.He lay sideways on the bed, propped up his upper body, and wrapped his arms around Wang Di, who was a bit petite compared to him, with his right hand.

His lips were pressed against the ear of the sleepy Wang Di who was rubbing his eyes vigorously, whispering something from time to time.

The young brother Wang who stopped rubbing his eyes opened his eyes and looked at him, blinked, stretched out his hands to grab the light brown arm that wrapped around his chest, and tried to tug.

Without pulling away, his big violet-toned eyes rolled around, and he slightly tilted his head back, looking eagerly at his brother Wang.

The young Pharaoh lowered his head slightly, and whispered a few more words.

The young Wangdi laughed, seemingly happily.

Seeing his younger brother smiling happily, the young king's handsome face, which was always slightly indifferent, seemed to soften a lot.His crimson pupils stared at the younger brother in his arms, and there was a faint trace of satisfaction in the depths of his pupils.

Seth, who was waiting outside the door, couldn't stand it any longer.

Well, Wang, if you want to love Brother Wang, you can dote on him, we can't stop him anyway.

But there is a limit to everything, can't you restrain yourself early in the morning in front of a room full of servants?

Seth was dissatisfied.

In many ways, in many places, he has a lot of dissatisfaction.

Relying on the king's favor, this king's younger brother has become lawless, and if this continues, no one can rule him except the pharaoh.

At last, before the endurance of the bruised Seth could be exhausted, the young Pharaoh stepped out of the gate.

Seth glanced at the young king who was walking outside surrounded by attendants, hesitated for a while, and finally turned around and walked into the half-closed door.

Sitting on the bed with a dull expression, as if he was still considering whether to go back to sleep, the young Wangdi noticed his arrival and rubbed his eyes vigorously.As a result, the pair of light purple eyes that were still a little sleepy woke up a lot.

In the quiet room, he looked at Seth, but Seth was silent, and several maids knelt aside to wait for the younger brother who got up.

The king of Egypt said a few words to the female officials around him, signaling them to withdraw.

There were only the two of them left in the room, and he sat cross-legged on the bed, looking up at Seth standing silently in front of him.

"Seth, what do you want to tell me?"

"Do you even know what you're doing?"

A pair of sword eyebrows were tightly frowned, and the sky blue pupils stared coldly at the boy who was looking at him innocently and casually.

God knows how much Priest Seth wants to open that guy's brain to see what kind of weird stuff is inside.

"Why do you say that?"

The young Wangdi seemed to have little interest in the conversation with Seth, and he looked unmotivated.

"I don't know where you come from, and I don't know what the hell it is." Seth said, "My brother, you still don't have any self-awareness! This is Egypt, not your hometown!"

"One word from the king can kill you, how dare you make such a rebellious move!"

"I used to think you were a little bit smarter, but now it seems that you are still so stupid!"

"You are in Egypt, and Egyptian laws do not allow you to act so willfully. When will you understand this!"

The young prince who was mercilessly reprimanded by the Egyptian priest stared at Seth. He didn't seem to be angry because of it, but looked very happy.

"Is Seth worried about me?"

"I just don't want to bother with messy things!"

The great priest with a handsome face suppressed the idea of ​​yelling at this younger brother who always provoked his greatest anger, and replied coldly, "Obeying the Pharaoh, this is what a wise person would do."

The king of Egypt blinked and suddenly laughed.

"What should a smart person do?" He said with a smile, "Just like everyone else, obey him, please him, flatter him... Seth, you..."

He seemed to have a lot to say, but he opened his lips and closed them again.

"Forget it, Seth." The young Wangdi said, "If I say too much, you probably won't understand, so I'll just explain it to you now."

"Brother Wang, I won't pretend, I just let him know what I'm thinking."

"When I am angry, I will let him know that I am angry; I will also lose my temper with him, whether he is a pharaoh or not; I will tell him directly if I have any dissatisfaction; I will even quarrel with him. ...This is probably what you call an idiotic move."

"He's your pharaoh, but to me he's the king's brother, that's all."

Seth fell silent.

The sky-blue pupils stared at Brother Wang with a strange emotion, and there was a strange look on his face that seemed to want to get angry but couldn't.

"...do you know what it means to anger the Pharaoh?"

he asked, his tone unexpectedly calm.

"Brother Wang, maybe it's strange for me to say this, but I still want to remind you that the Wang family has no family ties."

"Seth."

The young Wangdi raised his head and smiled at him.

Childish smile, but fearless.

"I care about the kind of thing that I have between Brother Wang and me. For me, that is more important than anything else."

"However, if it is too fragile, then I would rather destroy it with my own hands, the sooner the better."

"……up to you."

Seth turned and walked out without saying a word.

Perhaps it was because he already understood that no matter what he said, he could not change Wang Di's mind.

He walked out of the room, looked up at the golden sun in the blue sky like his pupils, and suddenly remembered what Isis said.

【Wang Di may be a considerate child, but he is not a stupid good guy. He is also good at defusing situations that are unfavorable to him. From this point of view, Wang Di seems to be a smart person who won't bother anyone. ] Asis once told him so.

【Actually, he looks docile, but he is able to insist on himself, no matter how much pressure he encounters, he will push back... People with this kind of character usually have their own bottom line. 】【Once the bottom line is touched, it is better to have the jade broken than the tile. 】

-

Today's weather is very good, the sun is shining all over the earth, and the young Wangdi is also in a good mood now.

Under the pressure of the cute little brother, the young Pharaoh finally let go, and removed more than half of the attendants who followed the king, and the remaining half of the attendants were no longer as tight as before.

Ah~~ The long-lost feeling of freedom is so good.

He thought with great emotion.

Although with Ke Ya's help, he once got rid of those followers and ran out alone, but the feeling of sneaking out and coming out openly are completely different!

At this moment, he was going to a corner of the palace openly, and he didn't want to be whipped by the black Egyptian cobra again.

Even if it doesn't hurt, the feeling of being whipped is still very unpleasant.

That remote small garden seemed to be unknown, except for the old priest he met for the first time, he had never seen anyone there, not even the maid in charge of cleaning.

Speaking of which... how did he get there in a daze that day?

"Your Royal Highness!"

A yell made him stop.

Turning around, he saw the beautiful priestess who had always behaved calmly and elegantly walking towards him in a hurry. Her expression and behavior were so out of control that it could almost be described as panic.

"Isis..."

"Brother Wang, how did you get in here! Don't you know that this temple is a forbidden area of ​​the palace that no one is allowed to enter!"

"..."

Forbidden place?What forbidden place?

Inadvertently discovering that Wang Di was about to enter the forbidden area where no one except the holy high priest was allowed to enter, Isis stopped Wang Di's footsteps with a sharp yell, and then asked a series of questions.

It wasn't until she calmed down a little that she realized that her behavior was inappropriate.

Not to mention that as a priest, she actually taught the younger brother in such a disrespectful tone, and the so-called forbidden areas are generally aimed at the servants of the palace.As the younger brother, it is impossible for him to constitute a 'forbidden area' anywhere in the palace.

But there is no way, after all, no matter how respectful Isis is on the surface, there is still a sense of alienation and disapproval from the bottom of his heart for this sudden appearance of the younger brother.

If I had grown up serving this younger brother, Isis would never have made such a mistake.

"Forbidden place... is it a place where you are not allowed to go?"

Isis was once again taken aback by the perplexed look on the younger brother's face.

"His Royal Highness." Her eyes were a little dignified, "How did you get in?"

"... walked in."

So how did it get in? !

Isis thought with a headache.

In order to prevent unintentional intrusion by servants or deliberate investigation by interested people, an enchantment was set up by the High Priest around here.Not to mention that ordinary people will never notice this place, even as a high priest, he was able to enter the periphery of this place only after obtaining the permission of the high priest.

Further inside, she couldn't get in, and she couldn't even see clearly.

However, just now she saw that Brother Wang seemed to be walking into the forbidden area, and he seemed to be very familiar with it.

"Have you entered the temple inside?"

"Shrine? I didn't see it."

"...what's inside?"

"Isis didn't go in?" The young prince seemed to sense something was wrong during the question and answer, "It's just an ordinary garden inside, oh, and there's an old priest."

The only thing that is out of the ordinary is that there is a super big super scary black snake.

Therefore, he once promised the old man not to reveal the matter about the snake, and Brother Wang swallowed the latter sentence.

It turned out to be the case.

Isis knew something in his heart.

It seems that Brother Wang came here under the guidance of the high priest.

"Isis, why is this place designated as a forbidden area?"

Facing Wang's question, Isis hesitated a little, and decided to tell the truth.

Now that Brother Wang has obtained the permission of the High Priest to enter here, he has naturally known the existence of the thing inside.

Well, it's better to clarify things as soon as possible.

"Your Highness, your monster is a chestnut ball. You should know that the Pharaoh, you, and us great priests all have the power to use monsters."

Although he didn't understand why Isis didn't answer the question about the forbidden area, but instead brought up this irrelevant topic, Yugi nodded.

"Although we all have the power to summon monsters, in essence, I am different from you." Isis said, "Our great priest summons monsters with the help of the power bestowed by the gods on the golden artifact. We serve Pharaoh devoutly King, with the approval of the gods, he was licensed to use the magic power in the golden artifact."

"However, the people of the royal family who have the blood of the gods use their innate power to summon monsters, and their bodies themselves have magical power."

"Although it is very faint, I can see it with the help of the golden artifact." Isis gently pressed his finger on the golden eye hanging around her neck, "I see that this kind of magic power also exists in your body. This It's also the reason why I didn't hesitate to admit your identity as the king's brother back then."

Well, he really doesn't have any Egyptian royal blood.

The so-called magical power in the body is probably left over from another soul that resided in his body...

"The Pharaoh possesses extremely powerful magic power." Isis said, "That is his innate magic power, and this powerful magic power is getting stronger and stronger as the king grows up."

"Although the king is still very young, the high priest has already admitted that the king has already surpassed him in terms of the magic power in his body."

"He also said that judging from the current growth rate, the current king may be the most powerful pharaoh in Egyptian history."

"Whether the power possessed by the Pharaohs of all ages is strong or not depends entirely on the strength of a certain existence he possesses."

"Only after obtaining the golden building blocks and becoming a pharaoh, will the special existence that will awaken in the depths of the pharaoh's soul, we call it [king soul]."

"[King Soul]?"

Brother Wang, who had been listening quietly all this time, finally couldn't help it, and repeated the word.

"Yes, that is a special existence that only a pharaoh will have." Isis nodded, "For a long time, the weak [king soul] will sleep deep in the king's soul until the death of the pharaoh However, the powerful [King Soul] can condense into a form and appear beside the Pharaoh."

"The only person who can see [King Soul] is the high priest who serves the sun god Ra."

"And the most powerful [King Soul] in the legend is said to have self-awareness, and it can even act autonomously without its master's soul in a short period of time."

Having said that, Isis stopped suddenly.

Her gaze fell on Brother Wang, and the conversation changed abruptly.

"Your Highness, what did you see?"

The young Wangdi didn't answer, he just looked at Isis with some hesitation, hesitant to speak.

Isis smiled.

"The high priest said that the form of the king's [king soul] is a black Egyptian cobra."
