1609 Gold Dust Eyes Translated by XephiZ
Edited by Aelryinth
For a moment, it felt like the air had frozen. The expression on Mo Fan’s face stiffened as he felt the air that Apas was calmly breathing out.
If it was really possible to determine if a person could Awaken some Innate Talents beforehand, Mo Fan would have long been chosen to become a Mage. Why would he bother putting in so much effort just to secure the chance of being enrolled in a magic school?
It was impossible to detect a person’s Innate Talent. The magic imprint that Mo Fan was using was not to stabilize Apas’ Innate Talent.
The lunar-white glow represented the magic of the Summoning Element. Mo Fan was casting an Intermediate Spell. The imprint was the Contract Seal meant to be applied to the soul of a creature of a different species. If the imprint was placed successfully, it would make the creature the Summoner’s Contracted Beast.
Mo Fan was now able to have a second Contracted Beast. He had lied to Apas, since the imprint was meant for his second Contracted Beast!
Why did he do it? Because he was still suspicious of her!
“If you didn’t believe me from the beginning, why did you do so much for me, big brother?” Apas stared at Mo Fan with oddly glittering eyes and a curious face.
Mo Fan slowly withdrew his hand. The imprint was still on Apas’ forehead, but Mo Fan knew it was not going to work. He had already learned what he wanted to.
However, he was still dumbfounded by the outcome. He looked at Apas’ beautiful face and felt like it was all just a nightmare. He had an urge to just wake up and realize none of this was happening.
Unfortunately, it was happening in real life. The moment the Contract Seal entered Apas’ body and touched her soul, the Summoning Magic immediately told him that the innocent girl was not as ordinary as she seemed!
“To be honest, just a second ago, I still believed there was nothing wrong with you, but I didn’t think…” Mo Fan said.
Even though Mo Fan was suspicious of Apas, he was only doubting her a little. He was ninety-nine point ninety-nine percent sure that Apas was just an ordinary girl. He only did it to clear away the last wisp of doubts that had suddenly crossed his mind.
However, he was utterly shocked by the outcome; it was possible to sign a contract with Apas’ soul!
The Contract Summoning could not be used on humans, yet it was possible to use it on Apas’ soul. It clearly indicated that Apas was…
Even Mo Fan could not believe his sudden thought had led him to such a horrifying discovery!
Able to sign a contract and willing to sign a contract were two different things, hence why Apas was asking Mo Fan why he was trying to enslave her soul. In Apas’ eyes, signing the contract with Mo Fan would turn her into Mo Fan’s slave and pet!
“But you still did it. I also thought big brother wouldn’t be suspicious of me. I was thinking about how we could just stay close to one another, and you might never figure out the truth even after many years. Big brother, why did you do it? It’s not like I’m going to harm you,” Apas said seriously.
Mo Fan slowly backed away while Apas moved with him. She did not look angry, nor did her face suddenly became twisted and ugly like Mo Fan had imagined. She was still the beautiful little angel, yet she was now a terrifying little demoness in Mo Fan’s eyes!
“It’s just who I am. I have a strong urge to find out the truth, no matter how bloody and cruel it is. It’s better than losing myself in my own dreams.” Mo Fan continued to back up.
“I’m really curious. Why did you think I’m not normal?” Apas asked.
“There were drawings of the legendary Medusa in the Pyramid. I noticed something strange about them. When Medusa was still a human, she was eaten alive by the Snake Primordial Ancestor before she was reborn with snake hair…” Mo Fan replied while the Dark Substance was silently dissolving into the ground under his feet.
Apas did not seem to notice the Dark Substance. She nodded and smiled, “So you suspected that the Young Medusa wasn’t trying to digest me by swallowing me alive, it was me evolving instead?”
“Not really, it just seemed a little odd to me. I never thought about it when I saw the painting…” Mo Fan said.
Mo Fan was despairing. He had never thought there was anything wrong with Apas. He was just trying to use the spell on Apas to clear his mind of the weird thought he had. To his surprise, not only did he fail to satisfy his suspicions, he even dug out such a ridiculous truth!
He was already regretting it!
Wasn’t it better if they could have just enjoyed their time together? Why did he have to do it out of curiosity?

“Was that the only reason?” Apas asked.
“Not quite. I was also curious about why General Ethan bothered to fawn upon a normal Ruler-level Scorpion Lord Medusa with his strength and status…” Mo Fan said. He was wondering if he could drag the conversation out further and buy himself some time.
“So you were suspecting General Ethan was fawning upon someone else?” Apas smiled.
“It was just a wild guess.” Mo Fan forced a smile.
“Yeah, if you hadn’t used the spell on me, everything you mentioned wasn’t really a problem…” Apas sighed. She wished that they could just go back in time to just a minute ago. She would still be Apas if Mo Fan had not discovered her true identity. She would continue to act coquettishly in front of the big brother and learn new things. She might even become a Mage. She did fulfill the requirements to be one!
“Say, why don’t we just forget about everything that happened? You can go wherever you want. Just treat it like we’ve never met before…” Mo Fan asked.
“Do you think that’s possible?” Apas grinned coldly.
“I’m fine with it. I don’t mind it at all, we can just part without hard feelings,” Mo Fan replied shamelessly.
“The young Medusa you tore to pieces was my servant,” Apas said.
“Oh, it was just a misunderstanding,” Mo Fan replied without any guilt.
Mo Fan initially thought Ethan insisted on kidnapping Apas because he wanted to fawn on the young Medusa and cover up the ugly conspiracy of the military.
However, it turned out that Ethan was only trying to protect Apas! He was fawning on Apas instead!
“It’s fine, I have a lot of servants like her… Big brother, I’m afraid there’s no reason for you to be spreading the Dark Substance. It won’t be able to stop me. I was very weak at the Sunset Shrine. Any of you could have killed me easily, but it’s no longer the case now. You are no match for me,” Apas said gently.
“You wouldn’t want to mess with me, either. How about this? You can go back to your temple. I do have a lot of other things to attend to,” Mo Fan continued to negotiate.
He was feeling very uneasy, especially since he was not sensing any aura from Apas!
He did not know why Apas was different from the other Medusae, and why she had the body of a human. However, he was convinced that she was a Medusa with an extremely pure lineage, purer than the lineage of the Scorpion Lord Medusa inside the Pyramid!
“It’s boring in the temple. It’s like Hell to me there. Your world is far more entertaining…” Apas replied.
“Apas, I wasn’t lying to you. I’m really not as simple as you think. Don’t force me,” Mo Fan said.
“Sure, show me what you got then! I’m looking forward to it… if I’m impressed, I might consider making you my pet. It won’t be as boring in the temple with you around!” Apas smiled. Her eyeteeth were so adorable, but the smile on her face suddenly turned menacing, like a ruthless empress. She said expressionlessly, “Of course, if you bore me, I don’t believe there’s a reason for you to be alive anymore!”
Mo Fan’s throat bulged. The Dark Substance around him suddenly turned into black chains wrapping around Apas.
He had more control over the Shadow Element after Fiendish Night was enhanced. His Intermediate Spell, the Giant Shadow Spike, was no longer confined to the shape of spikes. He could use it to trap his enemy with a single thought; its power easily surpassed the Intermediate Shadow Spell!
Apas stood there as the black chains wrapped around her body. She had yet to unleash any aura. It felt like a little breeze could knock her to the ground.
However, the chains were like mere decorations to her. She could still step closer to Mo Fan.
“Big brother, I really wanted to be your disciple and learn magic. I wish you would not have found out who I really am. I would still have been your little Apas when you grow old and pass away… I’m sad, I really am,” Apas raised her hand. Her innocent eyes emitted a sharp light!

Apas’ eyes were changing. A noble dust gold slowly rose in them. A single glance was enough for a person to be lost in their thoughts!
The snake eyes were like gold dust. Mo Fan had never seen anything like it!
Mo Fan was supposed to be immune to a Medusa’s Gaze, but he immediately lost his mind when his eyes met the real eyes of a Medusa!
