"He's a man." Gabriel looked at Amon, and said to Aristotle with a little dissatisfaction.
Aristotle replied with a smile: "He is still a minor and meets your requirements. This lord, you have also seen, in this town, I am looking for someone who has no gray hair and no mud in his nails. Man is too difficult, I only found him. And one more thing I want to tell you, this child is a miner who mines the tears of the gods. If there is no pure heart and the favor of the goddess Isis can welcome the crowd Is the tear of God coming? "
Gabriel said aloud, the tone eased a lot: "I heard the discussion at the other end of the town, and I know who you brought. It turned out that the god's stone mined by the boy was the tears of gods, but was almost punished by the priests here . "
Aristotle nodded. "Yes ... so, can this child stay?"
Amon looked up at Gabriel and found that the samurai was staring at his face, his eyes seemed to have a sharp penetrating power, and when he touched his eyes, he lowered his head involuntarily. This adult is very beautiful, the most beautiful woman Amon has seen so far, but Amon feels that her erect posture has a surging tension, as if there is an illusion that will push people away invisibly, giving people The first impression of her is not her beauty, but her majesty.
Gabriel: "Amon, you can stay, and then follow the maid to change clothes. The job you have to do is very simple, is to organize the diet and living utensils of Lord Maria .... Well, you are a child , But also note that when delivering things, you must not touch Lord Maria, while Lord Maria is washing and resting, you must avoid, and do not make a sound. ... Also, what you hear and see here Everything, you can't say a word to anyone! Otherwise you will be punished. "
It was the first time she saw Amon, but she called out his name. The requirements for him were even stricter than the rules of the temple. Although Amon was a minor boy, she reminded him that he could not touch Mary. Ah, otherwise he would be punished, but did not say how to punish, and Maria heard upstairs.
Gabriel scared Amon a few words, and then asked the maid to lead him to change clothes, because Amon's clothes were clean but worn. Gabriel wanted to find someone in the town to serve as a servant to Maria. There was another reason. She didn't want anyone to know that Maria was learning divine magic. It was impossible for the ignorant Duke residents to take these The story spread, and Rod Dick's followers couldn't say more.
...
Just before seeing Maria, Gabriel was the most beautiful woman Amon had ever seen, but when she saw Maria, Amon vowed from the heart that she should be the most beautiful woman in the world. The moment he saw Maria, he even went a little mad, saluting subconsciously: "Hello, Lord Maria, I am a servant sent to serve you, called Amon."
Maria is about the same age as Amon, at most only two years older than him, and about the same height as him, but Amon must call her Lord Maria. Her hair was light brown, with a soft amber sheen, slightly curled over her shoulders, and her eyes were also light brown with a little blue, like stars in the night sky, and clear water.
"You are the miner who greeted the tears of the gods? Thank Goddess Isis for your blessing, and I also want to thank you!" When Mary spoke, she always looked straight into Amon's eyes, her eyes were peaceful and gentle, Try to stay calm and calm, but there is a hint of curiosity that can't be masked.
This made Amon a little embarrassed and habitually lowered his head. Her facial features are beautiful, as beautiful as dim imagination in dreams, especially her eyes. Amon, who lowered her head, couldn't help but blushed, thinking to herself, "Duke has never seen a girl like this. Why does she always look into my eyes? Actually, she is a girl about the same size as me , I may not be afraid to look directly at her. "
Amon's job is very simple, that is, prepare the utensils needed for Maria's daily diet, and send them to the living room on the second floor. After Maria runs out, she cleans up and takes them to other servants. For example, Maria's three meals a day were delivered to Amon. Maria didn't eat much, and her meal was less than a third of Amon's, but she needed a lot to prepare.
Various silver tableware are placed on the small table. Amon needs to wash the hands clean and cut the food. The knife and spoon are placed in the prescribed position. The silver cans containing goat's milk, drinking cups, and small dishes with salt and spices are placed on the left and right side of the table, and the table should be set down facing the place where Maria eats. Sound, not to spill goat's milk and soup on the table.
This dining table is quite heavy, and holding such a table on the second floor steadily, and put it down without a sound, is not easy for ordinary 14-year-olds. But Amon can already control the heavy mining hammer to mine the **** stone, which is easy for him.
When Maria was eating, she hardly made a sound, and even the utensils rarely collided with each other, very quiet and very self-cultivation. And Amen stood beside her, waited for her to eat and then walked away the table, then sent face wash and mouthwash water, went out to avoid, waited for Maria to finish washing, and then came in and carried the water container. Then stand on the stairs to hear the call.
As a saint, if in the Temple of Isis, you can serve as a cloud if needed, but Maria's servant in Duke Township who is directly responsible for eating and living utensils is currently only Amon.
Amon stayed with Maria for the longest time during the meal. Amon, who grew up in Duke Town, has never seen anyone who was so clean on his body and clothes. Use cleanness to describe Maria's Not quite, she feels pure. Maria didn't ask him, Amon couldn't speak, but after the meal, after drinking a sip of water or goat's milk, she often asked him questions such as the situation in Duke Town, the miners' mining The passing of Shenshi and so on, she is also curious about these.
Amon replied very carefully, and found that Maria seemed to have a habit, and naturally looked straight into his eyes, his lips seemed to be slightly raised, and a mild smile floated. This made Amon feel a little uncomfortable, his heartbeat was a bit chaotic, and he didn't even know where to put his hands.
"She is beautiful, and I want to look at her, but why don't I dare? Her eyes are not terrible at all, why am I afraid?" Amon said to herself, and even felt a bit indescribable. Depression.
Amon didn't know. In fact, Maria didn't have this habit before, but now she is following Gabriel's explanation. Gabriel taught her while teaching her--
"Master Maria, you are very pure. This is the temperament of a saint. But you are too young to appear too submissive. As a qualified saint, you are guarding the dignity of the goddess Isis. Give anyone a sense of cowardice. From now on, you need to pay attention to one thing: when you talk to anyone, look straight into their eyes.
Your eyes must be peaceful, but there must be no retreat or dodge, just as the goddess looks at the people. Regardless of whether it is a prince or aristocrat or a slave civilian, when you ask questions, you must look into their eyes like this, this is a virgin. No one dares to despise you. Under your gaze, they will feel the pity of the great goddess Isis. "
But there were few people around Maria who could let her "practice" like this, and the most suitable object was Amon. How could poor Amon know this, he was quite at a loss by Maria's eyes. Amon didn't know the identity of Mary. Even if someone had told him, he didn't know what the patron saint of the Temple of Isis was. He only knew that Maria was a distinguished aristocrat. He had to call her Lord. And cannot be offended.
Isn't it offensive to look at this beautiful girl and meet her gaze? The old lunatic had never spoken about this situation, and the alcoholic father was even less likely to tell him. It shouldn't count, she's watching me! ——Amon thought so in his heart, and at the same time felt that his heartbeat response was shameful. How could he be so discouraged?
Fortunately, there are no other disturbing things. The job of one gold coin a day seems easy, but a little accident happened on the first night.
At that time Amon was asleep on the wooden board under the stairs and was dreaming a very hazy dream. In the dream, Maria looked at him, and he looked at Maria with the same look. This feels strange, just like having just bathed in the cold spring of the Black Fire Jungle and sitting by the pool of water to rest.
At this moment, Amon suddenly heard an exclamation, the voice was not loud, and deliberately suppressing his voice was not so sharp, but apparently very scared. It was Maria's voice coming from the room on the second floor. Amon immediately jumped up. He slept a little, and forgot he was not at home, and his head hurt when he hit the wooden board under the stairs.
But Amon couldn't take care of it anymore. He came out from the stairs, turned over the wooden fence with one hand, rushed upstairs in three steps and two steps, and passed through the living room to Maria's bedroom door.
