Trevor Pagani smiled and said to Agnes: "I understand that your current identity is a nun of the Mother Earth Church. I should not say this in front of you."
"Mr. Pagani, this is Fenebaud." Agnes said.
"You may not believe in the kindness of gods, but you must not believe in the power of gods."
Trevor Pagani looked at Agnes, smiled, and said, "I know."
He turned to look at the portrait in front of him, said nothing more, and continued to talk about Agnes' grandfather Conor.
"I always knew that Conor was very capable, but I didn't expect that he could go from a young master who broke away from his family to that point. He could actually ride the wave coming from Intis and climb to a high position. , and even became the most trusted courtier of Amilcarre II." Agnes rarely saw a hint of pride on Trevor Pagani's face.
"When the king's envoy sent a letter from Amilcarre II, suggesting that I would designate the heir to the title as Conor, I passed the title directly to him."
"What I did probably still caused some psychological shadow on Conor. He got married very late and had children very late. He only had one child, Lorenzo."
"Although the pollution on Lorenzo's body has still increased, there are no other problems. I used the identity of 'Trevor Accardo' to observe him secretly. Although Conor was aware of it, he did not stop me."
"Aurelio was born, and there are still no problems." Trevor Accardo's eyes were a little blank.
"I can't help but doubt the inferences of my ancestors, and I can't help but wonder if we are all wrong. Until you were born-"
Trevor Pagani turned his head and said slowly: "I finally understand why our ancestors said that it is impossible to predict what will happen to children born when pollution reaches its peak."
"I tried to take a look at you from a distance when you were born, but my spirituality warned me not to do so, and the fear in my heart screamed at me to escape from this place," Trevor Pagani stared intently. Looking at Agnes, she said one word after another: "And I vaguely felt that it was the woman in the dream holding you, and you were holding strands of hair-like threads in your hands."
"Most of those threads are extending far away, and a few strands connect me, Conor, Lorenzo and Aurelio, hahaha..." Trevor Pagani laughed again .
Agnes did not speak, but looked at Trevor Pagani calmly, her eyes as clear as the sky.
Trevor Pagani laughed for a long time.
"Conor and Lorenzo have already completed the 'beacon' transformation. They are unaware of your abnormality. Apart from me, only Aurelio is aware of it, but he does not seem to have the same fear as me. ."
"I decided to observe what you would do. On the surface, you behave just like an ordinary human child. At most, you are much smarter than other children."
"But your spirituality has been consuming along the threads that connect us. At the same time, the pollution on my body is constantly disappearing as time goes by."
"It's like you're constantly collecting this pollution, which slowed down for a while after Lorenzo and Mariana asked the church for help, but it never stopped."
“I can’t help but wonder, is the pollution left on our bodies in exchange for power from Him the price of using His power, or is it His original purpose?”
Trevor Pagani looked excited, his body was shaking, and his voice was a bit shrill.
"He may just need someone to bring his pollution in..."
"Mr. Pagani, I think you need to calm down." Agnes looked at Trevor Pagani and said, her eyes were a little deep, and there were traces of fine black threads emerging in them. out.
Trevor Pagani looked into Agnes's eyes and couldn't help laughing. He covered his face with laughter and bent over. After a long time, he raised his head, but did not look at Agnes again. He just smiled and said: "Okay, the affairs of the Pagani family have been explained clearly. Now there is only one question left: who are you?" ?”
"I have been observing you for a long time, and Rosie Grace even thought that she had extremely malicious intentions towards you, so she transferred me to Celia to calm down."
"Yes, I do have ill intentions towards you. After more than a thousand years of accumulation of pollution, He finally allowed Lorenzo and Mariana to give birth to you. Over the past sixteen hundred years, so many people in the Pagani family have suffered because of this. I will die just for you!"
"I stayed in Celia for six full years, and finally figured out that no matter what He wants you to do, I can't stop it, and all my actions are useless."
"I wanted to laugh when I heard the news that you were seeking help from the church because your 'disease' was getting worse. Is this bad news? This is clearly His move to increase your strength!"
"I heard that you chose the 'Prisoner' sequence, 'Prisoner', ha, it really fits. What exactly is imprisoned under your human body? When will this cage be broken?"
"No one can touch your heart and memory. As you master extraordinary powers, you can even ignore pollution and contact other people's spirits. You never seem to care about what the church thinks of your unusualness, and the church also I also turn a blind eye to your unusualness, no matter how obvious your abnormality is!" Trevor looked a little angry, he turned his head and looked at Agnes again.
Agnes did not speak, but looked at Trevor Pagani with a look that seemed to be sighing. The black in her eyes was hidden again and disappeared without a trace. Only the pure eyes could be seen. blue.
"Look, just like you are now, you finally don't want to pretend anymore?"
"You're looking at me like this? Are you mocking me?" Trevor Pagani looked at Agnes and laughed out loud.
"No, I just think you are very courageous. Well...a mortal who has been trying to figure out the thoughts of gods is very courageous." Agnes put on a smile that looked extremely sincere. .
"Yeah, I've been trying to figure out the thoughts of the gods..." Trevor Pagani's voice seemed to contain some sighs, and his voice gradually became lower and swallowed by himself.
He looked a little tired and leaned against the wall, and finally asked: "Agyness? Or Your Excellency? So, what should I call you now?"
"I am still 'Agnes'." 'Agnes' said with a smile, looking peaceful and gentle.
"It seems that it should be 'Your Excellency'." Trevor Pagani said with a little ridicule.
