[Notre Dame de Paris] Papal Way

Ace has always been a qualified nobleman, he has all the perfect qualities of a nobleman-such as always being able to judge the situation, hiding his true thoughts, and excellent endurance.These qualities and the nature of a magician sometimes do not blend well. The stronger the power, the easier it is to despise the rules that restrain the weak.

Just like at this time, although he is currently not stronger than the priest, if the other party wants to treat him in the same way as an ordinary person, he will feel that there is no need to be patient.

He spread his palms and stared at the gem that was as bright and beautiful as stardust: "Let me think...why do you distrust me? Because I am not an Egyptian? But you gave me such a Name, let me read the parchment, give me hints, help me improve my status...Why do I have to find this gem? Does it have any special meaning?"

The priest frowned, showing displeasure because of his indifferent attitude: "Of course it is different... This is the essence of your soul, the reason why you came to this world, don't you think it is calling you ?It's waiting for you, me, everyone. We want an opportunity to change, and you are that opportunity."

"What if I refuse?" Ace tilted his palm, and the gem slowly slipped between his fingers.He picked up the gem with two fingers and stared at it in front of his eyes, "This is just the reason you gave, and why should I accept it?"

"Why did you refuse?" The priest frowned and took a step closer to him, "What are you hesitating about? Is it because of the fate I have shown you, or a prophecy?"

Ace stared at the gemstone in a daze, and suddenly loosened his fingers, and the gemstone rolled down into his palm again.He looked down at the gemstone for a while, then turned half-turned to face the window, as if admiring the gemstone from various angles.

His attitude seemed very leisurely and careless, but the priest who had not received an answer all this time became anxious.He stepped forward again, and said slowly: "I don't know why you think I don't trust you... Indeed, I have doubts about your origin, but if I don't trust you, how can I show you those things?" Precious handwriting?"

"Very interesting—I thought it was because of the prophecy," Ace sneered.When standing in the light, half of his face seemed to be glowing, and the eyes depicting the Eye of Horus even emitted a strange fire like gemstones in his hand: "It seems that you have known it for a long time. I will come... Who told you? Your god? Or what you call the call to attract?"

As if confused by Ace's face, the priest couldn't distinguish his voice for a while, but stared blankly into his eyes.Ace barely realized what was happening when he raised his hand to toss the gem.But he quickly reacted again, took a step forward, and caught the gem, anger appeared in his golden-green eyes in an instant: "What are you doing!?"

"If this gem belongs to me, can I decide where it goes?" Ace showed a slight smile, put his arm on the priest's shoulder, and curled his lips, "For example... decide Are you going to throw it away?"

His other hand was placed on the priest's hand, and he separated the slender fingers one by one, revealing the beautiful gems inside.However, that gemstone has already changed, from a beautiful facet to a smooth oval, with a vertical line of a different color in it, as seductive and charming as a cat's pupil.

There was a look of horror on the priest's face.He wanted to withdraw his hand and run away from Ace, but the boy's fingers seemed to have an inexplicable magnetic force, preventing him from moving.The hand moved from his arm, shoulder, all the way to his cheek.The illusion that he tried to maintain was suddenly shattered, and the old and wrinkled face of the priest disappeared suddenly, revealing a handsome young face with beautiful eyeliner.

He looked young, with a pointed jaw, thick black hair falling back his shoulders, and androgynous beauty.However, the clearly exposed Adam's apple on that graceful neck undoubtedly proves his gender, which cannot be mistaken.

And now he is swallowing his saliva nervously, his forced calm expression also shows a bit of panic, and the pupils of those golden green eyes are even more narrowed, solidified into thin lines—it's almost as if he just met Like a cat who is a strong enemy and ready to escape at any time, his whole body is full of vigilance.

Ace didn't expect his appearance to be so young, and couldn't help frowning slightly.He picked up the gem, let go, took a step back, and leaned against the car window.Although the young man was ready to escape, he didn't expect that he would take back the emerald, his muscles stiffened, he didn't know whether to turn around and leave or just stand here.

Ace stared at him, showing a haughty smile: "Name."

"What, what's the name..." The young man's eyes dodged a little, but he quickly regained his composure, "When did you find out?"

"You don't need to know." Ace played with the gemstone in his hand and said flatly, "Name—you know what I'm talking about."

At the beginning, he really didn't know that the priest in front of him was a fake, because the young man's acting skills were quite good, whether it was some small movements or some accent habits when speaking, he imitated them perfectly.But just when his anger soared to the extreme and he was about to have a showdown with the priest, he suddenly discovered something strange——when he raised the gem to his eyes and looked at the "sacrifice", the gem turned out to be like transparent glass, Let him easily see the other's eyes through it.

The face seen through the gemstone with the left eye is the same, but the brown color in the eyes is clearly fading away with the right eye, leaving emerald-like clear eyes.At the same time as those eyes changed, the corners of one side of the gem also disappeared silently, turning into a smooth arc.

——This is not a sacrifice.

After reaching this judgment, the anger rising in Ace's heart suddenly disappeared.The previously feverish mind also gradually calmed down, while looking at the petite and exquisite opal, while thinking about how to deal with it.The more you care about something, the more you have something to do with it.Since this person cares so much about this gemstone, and hopes that he can accept this gemstone, so as to achieve a certain purpose through this method... Is he himself related to this gemstone?

When he puts the emerald in front of his right eye, what he sees is just an ordinary gem; when he puts the emerald in front of his left eye, it becomes a clear glass, allowing him to see through it. See what the "sacrifice" looks like under the disguise.The reason for this can only be the Eye of Horus.And the practice of "sacrificing" before diverting the topic and subtly drawing his attention to the emerald undoubtedly proves a certain function of the Eye of Horus... a certain function that he avoids and wants to obtain .

Grasping and using other people's desires to achieve one's own goals is also a necessary quality for nobles.

The smile on the corner of Ace's lips deepened, he put the gem in front of his eyes again, and said slowly: "Why, why don't you say it? —Maybe I should think about what to do with this gem, sell it, or simply throw it into the fire inside?"

"No!" The young man shouted immediately.As soon as the words came out of his mouth, a frustrated expression appeared on his face, and then he straightened his expression again, lowered his head and said: "Since you have seen through it... there is no point in hiding it anymore. After I say my real name In the past, I hoped that you could swear that before your soul was annihilated, you would never do any harm to me..."

Ace sneered: "It seems that you prefer fires?"

"No!" The young man raised his head again, his beautiful eyes seemed to be burning with flames, "This is just a trivial request...even gods are afraid to tell others my real name, I'm just an ordinary gem..."

Ace nodded again and again, sighed and said: "Yes, you can strengthen the output of magic power, and you can also become someone else's appearance to deceive people. You are really an ordinary gem. Since you are so ordinary, I must sell you. You won't have an opinion, will you?"

youth:"……"

"Either show your value, or I will sell you as an ordinary gem, the answer is one of the two." Ace threw the gem in his hand and said with a blank expression, "But I think you have nothing else to do." I have chosen. Didn’t you say that you are the essence of my soul and the reason why I came to this world? Ah... What is the opportunity? If this is the case, in order not to let me abandon you, you should not be willing to do anything Do it?"

... Bullying Shi too much!

For a moment, Ace seemed to see these four words shining brightly on the opponent's face.There was a wounded look on the young man's face, and his eyes were fixed on the gemstone in Ace's hand - obviously, if his body was not still controlled by others, he would have already escaped by now.

After a long silence, he lowered his proud head and said softly, "My name is...Tutankhamun."
