Alexander was stunned, lowered his head and whispered, "Father, why do you care about such a small matter?"
Philip II replied: "If it were someone else, it would be a trivial matter. I don't want to ask about it. But you really never wondered why that girl appeared, and why she wanted to win the favor of both you and Medanzuo." Is it? You should know the identity of Metatron, and you should know who Amon is. Do you still remember the oracle two years ago? The people mentioned by Zeus, the great father of the gods, should be Amon and Metatron. "
Alexander still bowed his head and said: "Of course I know what the arrival of Mr. Amon and Medanzo means to the Kingdom of Macedonia. Please rest assured, my father. In any case, I will not offend Medanzo and Amon because of Helen. "
Philip II also said: "It doesn't just depend on whether you are willing or not. If someone wants to stir up disputes, there will definitely be a rift. Since you have this attitude, simply show it and bless May as a friend." Danzo and Helen, Helen has no reason to refuse this blessing."
Alexander didn't speak, but frowned slightly. Philip II stood up and walked over to pat him on the shoulder and said, "My child, what is your real vow? Is it the future Macedonian Empire or a beautiful girl Helen? It seems that the two are not contradictory. A powerful monarch can naturally have the most beautiful girl in the world, but now there are contradictions, which is unnecessary. You still have a long way to go in the future, and there are many tests to go through, and you will face many such choices."
When they were talking, Amon sat next door and listened quietly. He quietly cast a magic spell—Guardian of Isis. This is a kind of blessing magic, which can make people forget the pain and fatigue, and make the soul more clear and comfortable. His purpose of doing this is not only to appease Alexander, the most important function of the blessing magic is to eliminate all kinds of negative influences in the soul.
As the god of love and beauty in the Olympian pantheon, Aphrodite must be proficient in the art of charm, and it is quite ingenious. The magical spells that can affect the feelings of the soul and have effects such as charm have similarities with the summoning magic spells that bind the soul. Amon has already seen her tricks on the Ross beast, so naturally he will not take it lightly.
If Alexander's soul was affected by the charm effect of the magic spell, it would not be easy for Philip II to persuade him. Amon did not find such traces in Alexander's soul, but he still responded to all changes without changing, using the protection of Isis to pray for Alexander. Whether he found it or not, he tried to eliminate this possibility as much as possible.
Alexander still made a decision under his father's persuasion. He knew that Medanzo liked Helen, and Helen was attracting the favor of two men at the same time, as if she would refuse to anyone, so Alexander decided to find an opportunity to express his attitude and wish Helen and May Danzo.
The next day, Amon took the Ross beast away, and without saying anything, he directly released the monster back into the mountains. And Alexander went to visit Helen again, and it happened that Medanzuo was also there. While chatting and laughing, the young prince suddenly said to Helen: "You have come to Macedonia to look for the hero in your heart. In fact, the hero is right in front of you. Is there anyone here who is more heroic than Medanzo? You have a good relationship with each other. I have a good impression, and if we can combine, I will send my most sincere blessings on behalf of the Kingdom of Macedonia."
These words almost made Medanzuo's face turn red, but Helen was surprised, turned around and entered the room with a shy look, as if she didn't know how to answer. Alexander chatted with Medanzo for a while, and even made some jokes with him and Helen, before he got up to leave.
That night, Helen sat alone under the lamp and said to herself again: "Actually, I prefer the handsome prince Alexander. A powerful warrior is just a strong individual, but a king who conquers many states is a real hero." Although she spoke in a low voice, her maid heard it, and the maid was sent by Alexander, so the words naturally reached Alexander's ears later.
But Alexander didn't respond, he just pretended he didn't know about it, and gradually reduced his contact with Helen, and even when he came to visit Helen occasionally, he was with Medanzuo. But Mei Danzuo pushed the boat along the way, and kept in touch with Helen more often, and finally one day, he spent the night at Helen's house.
…
The next morning, when the energetic and radiant Medanzo came back humming a tune, he happened to meet Amon sitting in the yard. Aristotle's mansion is not small, and there is a special courtyard for Amon and Medanzuo, and no one else disturbs it. Amon brought several chairs and placed them in the yard, and he sat in the middle.
Seeing this posture, Mei Danzuo was stunned, seeing no one around, he asked a little embarrassedly: "My God, are you waiting for me?"
Amon looked up at him, and said calmly: "Desire is one of the forces driving this world, it just depends on how we face it. To awaken the original power, the first test is to face desire, and such a There will be tests throughout."
He obviously meant something, Mei Danzuo chuckled and said nothing. Amon asked again: "How did you feel last night?"
Mei Danzuo replied in a low voice with some embarrassment: "I've never been so happy before!"
Amon's tone sank slightly: "Do you really think it's her?"
What do you mean by that? The voice carried divine information. In fact, the girl named Helen was not in his room at all last night, and Medanzuo did not spend the night with anyone. As the god of love and beauty, Aphrodite has many unique and clever methods. For example, even Amon has not found a trace of her summoning magic. Yesterday she cast an illusion that could charm the telepathy, making Medanzuo think that she was having fun with Helen.
This method was so clever that even Amon had to admire it, and Mei Danzuo did not use any means to resist, and experienced unprecedented ecstasy. If Aphrodite used this method to seduce men in the world, almost no one could resist. Amon questioned Medanzuo, not to blame him for staying overnight, but to ask if he understood
Medanzuo lowered his head and replied, "I know! My God, do you want to blame me? I have lost nothing, and on the contrary, I am very grateful to her."
Amon seemed to want to laugh, but then he held back and said with a straight face: "You really enjoyed it, just wait for the beating."
Mei Danzuo took a step back and said in surprise, "Who will beat me?"
Amon: "Me!"
Medanzo: "You? Why?"
Amon said in a deep voice: "You will understand after a while, someone will come to settle your account for the night. You should know who Helen is, why do you want to intervene?"
Mei Danzuo quietly took another step back, and replied in a low voice: "The reason is, Helen is indeed very cute, the most attractive woman I have ever seen, and she also offered to show her favor to me, and I have no reason to refuse."
Amon asked: "If she is Helen, it's nothing. You don't have to talk about this reason, what else?"
Medan Zuo finally raised his head, blinked his eyes and replied: "If Alexander is fascinated by Helen, he will listen to whatever she says. This may not be a bad thing for the Macedonian Kingdom. The future heir has the goddess' favor, But it is not a good thing for you, she is probably trying to use Alexander's hand to force you away. Your cooperation with Zeus ended with your leaving without reason, and your attempt to prove it failed."
Amon smiled wryly, "You fool who thinks you're smart! Is that the reason?"
Mei Danzuo replied honestly: "Of course not only that, but also the first reason, which I have already answered."
Amon suddenly sighed: "Those who want to find trouble will find trouble no matter what, and no one is a fool... I know in my heart, no, she has already come to the door!"
As soon as the words fell, a servant outside the courtyard shouted: "Mr. Amon, Miss Helen and Prince Alexander have business with you."
Amon said loudly: "Please come in, the seats are all ready."
It was only then that Medan Zuo realized that it was no wonder that Amon had placed six chairs in the yard. When Helen arrived, her eye circles were still red. Alexander also came, his expression was a bit embarrassed, it seemed that Helen had called him, and Aristotle was also accompanying the two of them.
Amon is not a rude person, but he is not pretentious either. When he saw them coming in, he did not stand up to greet them. He just waved to Aristotle and said, "Sir, please take a seat!" It doesn't matter if you sit on Amon, the seat is there anyway, and you can figure it out.
Medanzuo didn't sit down, but stood there with his head down, and Alexander and Helen didn't sit down either. Helen took a step forward and saluted Amon with an expression of infinite grievance: "Mr. Amon, I heard that His Highness Alexander respects you very much, and Medan Zuo is also your disciple, so I would like to ask you to uphold justice today."
Amon waved his hand lightly: "Beautiful girl, please don't be sad, just say what you have to say."
Helen lowered her head and tugged at Alexander's sleeves. Alexander coughed lightly and looked at Aristotle for help. It seems that they are not easy to speak about this matter, but they ask Aristotle, a honest elder, to speak.
Aristotle looked a little helpless, and said with a little embarrassment: "That's right, Mr. Medanzuo forcibly stayed in Miss Helen's room last night. I won't say much about the specific process. In short, there are servants and maids who can do it." Proof. Medanzo is a hero, Miss Helen can't resist his power, but..."
Before the words fell, there was a crisp sound of "pop", and Amon raised his hand and flew out a long translucent whip from his sleeve. Shaking out a very beautiful and exaggerated whip, the whip slammed on Mei Danzuo's back. The whip was as sharp as a knife, and Medanzuo's clothes were cut open like paper, this blow was not light.
Alexander rushed forward to stop it, and shouted, "Mr. Amon, calm down, you must not do this!"
Medanzuo let out a short cry of pain, and Helen stepped forward and opened her arms and said, "Mr. Amon, please don't punish him like this!"
Amon took advantage of the situation to put away his whip, and said with an angry face: "I beat him, does your heart hurt? What a kind girl!...Medan Zuo will pay the price for what he has done, this is the consequence of his choice .”
Aphrodite secretly scolded Amon for being able to act, but on the surface she said coquettishly, "Please listen to Mr. Aristotle's words before you get angry."
Amon turned to Aristotle and said, "Sir, haven't you finished your sentence yet?"
Aristotle had no choice but to continue to explain: "The kind girl Helen thinks she is also responsible, and she doesn't want to sue Medanzuo, she just came to ask you and me to uphold justice."
Amon asked again: "Then how do you think Medanzuo should be punished?"
Aristotle thought for a while: "Medanzo is a noble warrior. If Miss Helen does not object, according to the practice of the Macedonian city-state, citizen representatives can be convened to vote on pottery tablets to decide whether to list him as unacceptable." The welcome characters are expelled."
The so-called pottery voting means that when a meeting is held, each person distributes a pottery, draws symbols of support or agreement on it, and conducts a secret ballot. This practice was first implemented in the Yalun city-state, and later spread to all parts of Heaton.
Medanzuo forcibly stayed in Helen's room at night, and Helen was a guest of Prince Alexander. Medanzuo's doing so was disrespectful to the Macedonian Kingdom. What Aristotle said was the usual practice of punishing a nobleman, and the punishment was not very heavy, but if Medanzo was expelled in this way, and Medanzo was brought by Amon, then Amon I'm afraid it's not good to stay anymore.
Amon said bitterly: "He is not welcome anywhere, I hope he disappears from the world sooner!...Medan Zuo, let me ask you, did you open the door or she opened the door?"
Medanzo: "The door I opened."
Amon: "Did you take the initiative or she took the initiative?"
Medanzuo: "I also take the initiative."
Amon: "Did she say she didn't want to?"
Mei Danzuo: "I said 'no' a few times, but I didn't say I don't want to..."
Amon: "No but! Who closed the door?"
Medanzo: "She closed the door."
Amon said to Aristotle again: "Since this is the case, I have another suggestion to punish Medanzuo. I wonder if it is possible?"
Aristotle hurriedly said: "I just mentioned one of the commonly used punishments. If Mr. Amon has any suggestions, please say so."
Amon thought for a while and said, "No matter how we punish Medanzuo, it must be fair to Miss Helen. Who can judge that our punishment is fair?"
Helen finally couldn't help but speak: "I invited someone, and her ruling will definitely be fair."
With Amon and Aristotle present, Helen actually invited someone to "judgment", which is quite surprising. At this time, the people in the courtyard couldn't help but look towards the door, because a person walked in, as if suddenly appearing from the void, and stepped through the courtyard door.
Anyone who sees a person walking with their eyes closed who seems to be able to see everything clearly will be surprised. But this "little thing" would not make Amon lose color. A woman who was described as in her twenties came in, and Amon's face changed slightly when he saw her, and he stood up and stared at her face.
