When we returned to the mansion, it was already daylight.I closed the brocade curtains in the bedroom firmly, and then put down several layers of curtains on the Rococo style bed, and fell asleep in the familiar and peaceful darkness. When I opened my eyes, I was full of energy and felt happy. , the sun slanted on the lawn of the garden, the water drops from the fountain moistened the plants, and a piece of golden green shone.

It's afternoon.

Ring the bell for tea and dessert - in medieval fantasy voyages, food is the real nightmare.When you come back, of course you have to fully enjoy it.

While I was leisurely sipping tea in a flower-painting cup and scooping up thick thick chocolate ice cream, the butler politely told me a little thing——When I fell asleep, Xi Xufu Mr. S has been back.

"Oh?" I asked immediately, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

----I learned that it was Sisyphus who didn't want them to disturb me. He returned to the mansion at noon and left in a hurry----ah, this is the rest time after training in the morning. important matter.

I stopped drinking tea, changed my clothes immediately and went back to the sanctuary, and went straight to the Sagittarius Palace, but missed - he had already gone to the Pope's Hall.It was so easy to wait until Sisyphus came down from the mountain after finishing his busy work——I was looking outside the Sagittarius Palace and saw the warm and flowing light of the golden winged holy cloth from a distance. Steps, hurried towards him, wanting to eliminate the distance between him and me as soon as possible.

"Sisyphus..." I quickly rushed almost into his arms, and asked repeatedly, "Is there something urgent for you? I'm here now."

He helped me steady, his brows stretched, he patted my hand more reassuringly and smiled, "It's okay, don't worry."

"All right?" I asked suspiciously.

Seeing that I was waiting for him on the stone path, just because I didn't know why he was looking for me at noon——Sisyphus looked at me with gentle eyes.

"It's just..." After a pause, he said gently, "I met Jabofika who came back from the Rose Garden of the Magic Palace early this morning. He thought you lived in the Sagittarius Palace last night. Minos, I just I realized that you didn't return to the mansion all night."

"You were worried about me, so you went back to take a look at it at noon?" I suddenly realized that I was very surprised, and he also paid so much attention to my actions. "Seeing that I am here, you can rest assured, aren't you, dear Sisyphus?" I grabbed his arm and asked affectionately.

"That's right, Minos." He admitted generously, and even reached out and tapped the tip of my nose, "You told me to go to bed early, and you didn't go home at night? You, aren't you smiling too smugly and cunningly now? Beautiful little fox."

"Little fox? Huh, am I not a little fool? I am a little fool you like deeply from the bottom of my heart." I linger on his words with relish, Sisyphus's hearty laughter, beside this warm autumn day In the evening, deep and shallow reverberations within the solemn dome of the Sagittarius Palace - how happy and relaxed his mood is, how pure and sweet I feel in my heart, this kind of happiness is so mellow, and the happiness seems to be drunk.

When I sat down face to face with him, I woke up a little bit from my ecstasy, thinking, Sisyphus will ask me where I have been, and should I tell him about Deftolos?

Or wait for a better time in the future.He wouldn't like me running to the Arena of the Undead in the middle of the night.And Deftolos... I still want to continue to find out about him privately.

So, when asked with gentle concern, I replied, "I was with Tenma last night. He was going to be on patrol at night, so I just stayed with him and enjoyed the night view of the sanctuary." , I saw the dark world under the bright starry sky on an autumn night."

He didn't suspect anything else, but thought that I really cared for Tianma, nodded kindly and said, "Boys should be taken care of at this age, especially Tianma who is so energetic and lively."

I smiled at him, "Is this out of emotion? Regulus' uncle and coach? Is Regulus also very naughty and it bothers you?"

He laughed, Regulus and Tenma are so youthful and reckless, it is the nature of children.Good guidance will help them grow into good fighters.

During our next conversation, he suddenly mentioned Aaron who had never met, "I heard from Miss Sasha that his brother Aaron's personality is completely different from that of Tianma?"

"Yes." I said simply, picked up a pickled olive with lowered eyes, and bit it crisply.

"Although Pegasus is now with me, Miss Sasha misses her brother Aaron very much. I see Miss Sasha sometimes has a look of nostalgia on her face. She is recalling the past, but as a goddess, she has to bear with her heart. Emotions, trying to be strong every day..."

He sighed.

I felt the greek olives in my mouth turn into choked wood chips, and I swallowed so hard I almost thought it would puncture my lungs—I coughed.

"Minos?"

I turned my head and said softly, "Don't mind, when Aaron's talent is fully awakened, after he has done something famous, he will definitely come to Sanctuary to meet Sasha and Tianma. When the time comes, the scene will be touching enough to Giving back...Sasha's strength."

He covered my hand, and wanted to say something, but he was surprised by the temperature of my fingertips--"Minos, do you feel cold? Why does your face suddenly look bad?"

I made a smile, coughed twice deliberately, and Sisyphus had already covered me with a coat——his dark uniform coat.My fingertips gently stroked the soft and intertwined warp and weft threads, and I lowered my eyes.

... Athena Sasha just pretended to be forbearing, but this goddess defeated Ares, the god of war, made Neptune fall asleep and fought with Pluto as a deadly enemy----she has no shortage of tricks, Where do I need your pity, Sisyphus!However, if you want to pretend to be weak, I will too, so you should focus on caring about me.

I should be considered as successful in snatching Sisyphus's attention away from Sasha, the thorn in my side. Sisyphus stretched out his hand to touch my forehead a little nervously, but that was because he cared about me And the elation and sweetness that was aroused, somewhat faded away.

In the following autumn nights, as long as Pegasus is on duty, I will quietly go to the Arena of the Dead with him to meet Deftolos.The three of us chatted wantonly in the ruins where no one disturbed us, but we also established a more and more familiar relationship.

"Men are together, how can we do without wine?" I smiled and took out a bottle of wine from under the cloak, and first shook my head at the eager and curious Pegasus, "I won't let you drink until you are 13 years old. If you don't get Pegasus I won't let you drink the Holy Cloth either."

Pulling out the cork, I handed it to Deftolos, "Come on, have a taste. We don't have to be restrained, we can drink without a cup."

Deftolos sniffed the rich sweet aroma curiously, finally held it in his hand, raised his neck and took a sip----this was the first time he came into contact with this wonderful drink. He took another big gulp without feeling disgusted, as if he was thirsty drinking water.

"Deftolos, please be careful when you drink for the first time. If you get drunk, where should Tenma and I carry you to lie down? The stones here are hard and uncomfortable."

Raising the back of his hand and wiping his mouth, he said to me, "Thank you. I'm sober and will always be sober."

...Anyway, his face was dark, and I couldn't see the flush from the alcohol.I smiled and said to him slowly, Mr. Aspros is also a person who always seems to have a clear mind and a calm mind, with absolute control - he is very clear about what he wants, and he will work tirelessly for it .

"Of course, my brother is the best fighter." Deftolos said proudly, not even adding one.Smack, this trust----

"Sorry Deftolos, I want to ask you a potentially offensive question, please don't be offended--"

He looked at me with a slight smile, "You see me as a friend, I won't be angry."

"Do you have any plans for the future? I think you obviously possess extremely strong power, but you will always, er, be buried in this arena of the undead? You...Actually, you can also be qualified for the Golden Saint Cloth, right?"

Tenma also became excited, "Uncle Deftolos, why don't we fight for the goddess together!"

"Goddess?" Deftolos asked back.

"It's Sasha, the current Athena, believe me, Sasha will definitely give you the honor that a warrior deserves, and let you live a dignified life!"

He shook his head and refused, "I didn't practice to become powerful for the goddess."

Very good, very good, finally there are characters in Sanctuary who are not fighting for Athena.I am secretly happy.

And Deftolos pondered for a moment, "Minos, Tianma, let me tell you about my childhood experience."

----Because he was born under the strongest constellation and bears the name of an evil star, Deftolos has been discriminated against and even treated harshly by others since he can remember.

"I was ten years old at the time, and I was suffering from a high fever and I was just left to fend for myself. It was my elder brother who insisted on supporting me to find a doctor for treatment. As a result, my elder brother was accidentally seriously injured while escaping from the sanctuary to hunt us down."

"---Since that day, I have vowed not to continue to be a burden to my brother, and I am determined to support and protect my brother as a shadow, as long as my brother continues to move forward and become that bright and pure light. And I am willing to be the shadow behind."

I stared at the side face of him lost in memory - miraculously, there was no hostility on this dark face?Even with great power, he doesn't intend to take revenge on Sanctuary.

And where is the hostility... I thought of another pair of ice blue eyes, and his expression when he was not angry about what is light and what is shadow.What he is not angry about is the judgment of his younger brother by Sanctuary as an oracle!

Bright, pure light?Aspros?Hehe, seeing important people being treated like this, how can Aspros still show his absolute loyalty to the sanctuary and the goddess?Just kidding, if he is like this, I can eat the Holy Cloth of Gemini!

Such an Aspoulos is only thinking about the power and status of the next pope—the Pope, is it a seal to temporarily suppress his hostility?I'm curious, once this seal is torn, what will he do to honor the goddess?Paying homage to Sanctuary?Ha ha ha ha!Let's wait and see.

At the test ceremony for the succession of the Leo Golden Saint Cloth, because the Pope attended, all the golden saints who stayed in the sanctuary must also appear as a sign of solemnity.And on such an occasion, I saw Aspros again.He was wearing the holy garment of Gemini, which naturally represented orthodox light.It's a pity that the person who can really afford the expectation of bright and pure light...

My gaze focused on Sisyphus who was standing on the other side of the Pope.Today's position... Sisyphus and Aspros are one on the left and one on the right. Is the Pope showing that they are different, the status of the next Pope candidate?

The curvature of Aspulos' mouth was an eyesore - especially when he glanced at Sisyphus faintly.

As Regulus' uncle and coach, Sisyphus looked relaxed, looking at Regulus who was about to play with a smile.

I clenched my palms tightly, feeling a little nervous.Because Sisyphus told me just now that Regulus' opponent will be a golden saint assigned by the pope on the spot----Sisyphus' opponent was the previous generation of Pisces, and Regulus' opponent, Who will it be?

Never, never, not Aspros——I can imagine what this real dark evil star will do once he is chosen.My Sisyphus, do you know that it is the best opportunity to severely damage your popularity and reputation?Aspoulos doesn't know how to test, he will want it, Regulus failed in succession! !

I thought quickly, if the situation is not good for Sisyphus, how can I protect him?Should Regulus be reminded to beware of Aspulos anyway?no!Now Regulus is still too young, remind him that he will not be the opponent of Aspros who deliberately did it!

Just eliminate this possibility and encourage someone to take the initiative to fight against Regulus?

Immediately, I turned my head and walked to Shi Ang who was watching from the side - not surprisingly, I saw Tong Hu.

"Mr. Shi Ang, Mr. Tong Hu." My elegant and polite address actually made Shi Ang exaggerately raise his eyebrows, and Tong Hu was even more surprised, "What's wrong with you, Minos? Have you got a fever?"

"I..." Due to time constraints, I was afraid that the Pope would announce that it was Aspros, and I didn't have the time to go around with them, so I said directly, "Can you two do me a favor? As long as I can do it, I will definitely Remember to repay this friendship.”

Shi On chuckled.Tong Hu asked curiously, what is it?

"The two are young and promising golden saints. I think you all understand the rules that you will inherit - today Regulus will wear the golden holy clothes of Leo. Can you take the initiative to ask the Pope to try it out?" Time-refined warrior?"

"Well, it's okay. It's good to fight with Regulus, but Minos..." Tong Hu dragged his voice, "You don't expect us to be lenient, do you?"

"No, this is a humiliation to the fighters, and it is also a humiliation to the coach. Minos definitely didn't intend to do that." Shi Ang looked at me and said, "Tong Hu, I think he just wants Regulus to avoid him. Among the Golden Saints, it's just a certain person. Interesting."

I didn't care if my mind was guessed, I hurriedly said to Tong Hu, "Then please----"

"You're one step too late, Minos..." Shi On pointed to Pope Sage standing high above the arena, "His Holiness will announce the candidate soon."

I took a deep breath and stared in that direction solemnly:

Wearing a crown and robes, Sage looked around. Under his majestic gaze, the arena full of people became quiet.

Serge solemnly announced to Regulus who was standing under the Leo Golden Cloakbox, "Regulus, in order to live up to the strength of Leo, please prove yourself in the battle with Taurus Aldiba!"

Huh, great.My tensed heart instantly relaxed.If it was Arudiba, there would definitely be no problem. This is a bright challenge called the trial of succession, not a dark hotbed of conspiracy.

I continued to cast my eyes on Sisyphus with full of joy—but Shion suddenly asked softly, "Minos, I'm curious, who is the person you want Regulus to avoid?"

"First of all, it will definitely not be Sisyphus himself---he is the coach. You have always been sincerely planning for Sisyphus..." He lowered his voice, as if he had realized something, and frowned at me, His eyes were full of surprise, "No way, Minos?"

I?I am innocent.Glancing back at Shi On, I raised my head and said, "What are you thinking about? You are thinking about everything, I just encouraged Tong Hu to play, and Arudiba is also very good now!"

"Really?" He actually whispered close to my ear, "I thought you were afraid of the person who might pose a threat to Sisyphus, come out!"

... This is really the most intelligent and difficult boy I have ever seen.I put my arms around my chest and ignored him, and just concentrated on watching the trial form.However, Shion, Shion, I have to admit that if he was born ten years earlier, the next contender for the pope might have to add one person.And the difficulty of killing him is even more difficult than catching a slippery loach with bare hands. Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
