Uther's eyes dimmed slightly, and his almost bloodless lips opened slightly and began to describe the situation at that time:

"After entering the stone door, we saw the linen cloth. Only the descendants of the Pharaoh could pass through that thing, so we knew something was wrong. But the stone door behind us could not be opened at that time. Just when my father was about to activate the door key, a priest suddenly took action..."

Take a deep breath, Uther continued:

"He is Shu's priest, using the inherited magic, and the strong wind blew us and himself to the other side of the linen cloth in an instant. All the priests disappeared, and my father and I were forced to break into the trial place of the artifact. I was the first to break in and was forced to accept the trial, and then..."

Adam already knew what happened next, but the cause he speculated based on the part he knew was ridiculously wrong. After all, who would have thought that there would be a traitor among the priests brought by Uther's father?

And his father was not the first pharaoh to die in this trick. Those who were qualified to pass the linen cloth were pharaohs or crown princes. The two that Adam saw in the cage of the lake of fire before should be one of Uther's elders?

Emmm, but now the souls of those elders seem to have been swallowed by Amit.

"My condolences."

Adam patted the back of Uther's hand, and then found that the back of Uther's hand was a little cold. He moved his eyes slightly and saw that Uther's upper body was still naked. He was silent for a second:

"Are you cold?"

"..."

Although Adam raced against time on the way to Hamunaptra to save people, it was already noon when he received the letter. No matter how fast it was, the sun was about to set.

So after Adam said this, Uther really felt a little cold.

"My clothes are in the closet over there, just pick one for me."

After helping Uther put on his clothes, Adam and Uther returned to the previous topic:

"Do you need my help to deal with your people in secret?"

"If I need you, I will call you."

Seeing Adam's surprised face, Uther couldn't help laughing:

"Do you think I will refuse? For the glory of the Pharaoh? If it were someone else, I would definitely refuse, but there is no need for you..."

Uther looked at Adam seriously:

"In the name of God Amun-Ra, where the Nile flows, where the glory of God Amun-Ra reaches, Adam Reed has all the glory of the son of God Amun-Ra."

"..."

Feeling that there seemed to be some subtle connection between himself and the land under his feet, Adam found that Uther's words seemed to be more than just talk.

Although he was very moved, Adam couldn't help but say:

"The Nile River flows through more than just Egypt."

"The Egyptian Ministry of Magic has more than just wizards who rule Egypt."

Uther replied with a smile.

Adam: "... Damn!"

While cursing inwardly, Adam showed hesitation.

"Don't reject me, Adam, you don't know what your arrival means to me... At that time, I was tied to a metal frame, and my soul was burned by the flames. At that time, the only two people who could come to save me were my mother and you."

Seeing what Adam wanted to do, Uther held Adam's hand:

"But I know that if my mother came to save me, we would definitely fall into the trap of those people. So you were my only hope at that time... Do you know how moved I was when I found that the flames were isolated by a familiar ball of light?"

"I don't know how moved I was, but I must have cried ugly."

Adam touched his chin and thought.

"..."

Uther held back his strength and silently threw Adam's hand away:

"In short, as long as I have everything, I can share it with you."

The atmosphere was finally not so heavy, and Adam nodded:

"Okay, then I won't be polite with you."

Uther smiled with satisfaction when he saw this.

"But that's not what I wanted to say... Put this away first."

Adam handed the scale and the feather of truth to Uther, who accepted them without hesitation. Then Adam took out a heart that looked very familiar to Uther.

Uther: "???"

"I never knew what to do with this thing."

Adam sighed as he looked at the heart.

"I originally thought that if something went wrong when the heart was put back, there would be another one to replace it. Now it's useless... According to the Chinese saying, you replenish what you eat. Your heart was dug out and put back, so it should be quite weak. How about I stew this heart to replenish it for you?"

Next, Uther spent five minutes explaining that he didn't need to replenish his heart at all.

"Really? Although I haven't stewed a human heart before, it should be similar to a pig heart.Add some Codonopsis, Astragalus and Chinese wolfberry, it tastes good!"

Adam asked again without giving up.

"Pig heart can be considered, but forget about my heart!"

Uther still refused sternly.

"Well, okay..."

Adam took a look at the heart that was still fresh and even beating, but he couldn't eat it in the end. He lifted the magic of the double card and sent the heart back.

Uther was relieved when he saw the heart disappear:

"Speaking of which, we have a tacit understanding. You actually found the clues I left so quickly."

"It just flashed in my mind... By the way, I haven't seen what the rest of the things are."

"Then you can take a good look. They are basically some commemorative things I have since I was a child..."

Uther said nonchalantly, and suddenly seemed to remember something:

"Wait, don't look--"

Uther regretted this sentence as soon as he said it.

"Huh? "

Adam was not interested in the rest of the things in the box, but when he saw Uther's performance, he suddenly became interested and quickly dragged the box out to try to find the thing that made Uther lose his composure.

Originally, Adam wanted to judge which one it was based on Uther's expression, but Uther didn't know if he had predicted his thoughts in advance, and he closed his eyes and lay on the bed pretending to be dead, so Adam had to find it himself.

This one - doesn't look like it!

This one - shouldn't be either!

This one - definitely not!

This one - huh?!

Adam found a small notebook and saw a very serious warning on the first page:

"Anyone who opens this diary with impure intentions, I will strangle him like a bird? "

Adam felt like he had seen this sentence somewhere before...

Hearing Adam read this sentence, Uther, who was pretending to be dead, couldn't help but tremble.

Adam, who didn't miss this scene, raised his lips slightly and turned the diary to a page at random.

Hearing the sound of turning pages, Uther opened his eyes and looked at Adam fiercely:

"Didn't you see the curse on the first page?"

"Oh? So it was a curse..."

Adam suddenly realized, and then tilted his head:

"But I have the same authority as the Pharaoh now, so there shouldn't be any curse that can affect me, right? And you obviously gave me this box, and this diary is now mine~"

Uther: "..."

"April 7, sunny weather, I'm in a bad mood today, because my mother...Puchi——"

"Ahhhhh shut up! "

Uther, who was still weak, tried desperately to sit up and take back the diary, but Adam pushed him back to the bed with one hand, held the diary high with the other hand, and continued to read:

"Because my mother spanked me today, it was obviously Maotuan who bit her skirt, what does it have to do with me? One day I will feed all of my mother's skirts to Maotuan, let him tear and bite them at will!"

Adam turned his head and looked at Uther:

"You are quite nice to Maotuan~"

"Ahhh, please, please stop reading!"

"Huh? This is..."

"Ahhhh——please! No! Don't! Ah!"
