Taking the vessel for the power of Anubis from the Temple of Silence is the most dangerous and terrible idea. But looking at the rolled-up ball in his hands, which was shaking all over from the heat and pain, it was difficult for me to come to my senses and come back to myself. Moreover, the Boss didn't seem to mind... Although the reckoning will come, and it will be cruel.... But for now...
It gets terribly hot in the city during the day. It's disgustingly hot in here. Even the open windows in the Academy's office do not save from the heat.
A small child with white unruly hair was sitting at a table and reading a book. The heat was not a hindrance to him, and he wrapped himself in his robe, where Anubis's ears were on the hood. He was bored. Very boring. His friend is studying, and his mentor is away on business again..
He glanced at his watch. The boy was still poorly oriented in time, but, according to the mentor, she should come...
The sound of the door opening was heard.
Now.
The boy threw down the book and ran out into the corridor, almost falling, but dexterous hands caught him.
– Mentor!
He smiled as he wrapped his arms around his mentor's neck. His red eyes shone with joy and childish naivety. Oh, how he loved going to the Academy with his mentor. To observe the work and how his mentor teaches other, older children... And then hug him and brag that today he read another legend from the library.
