Chapter 4 A chance encounter

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 My hero, his enemy.

Standing on Drikeles' side, he is certainly a hero.

But on the side of Eutrus, Drekels is obviously an enemy.

But Rean can be regarded as the child of Drekels? How should this account be settled?

Do you want to tell the truth yourself?

Otherwise, when the truth is revealed, this witch will definitely be dissatisfied.

It would be terrible if something unexpected happened.

"That——"

Just when Rean wanted to tell the truth, the Iceberg Witch waved her hand.

"Don't worry, I didn't plan to do anything, it's just a loser's complaint.

Drekels was indeed a hero of his generation. After his victory, he did not kill them all. He left me and his descendants behind, and allowed them to continue to enjoy the status of being the first of the 'Four Famous Families'.

I ask myself that I can't do this. I have to accept this favor, so I just complain."

Li En swallowed his words again, and his anxious heart was relieved.

I have to admit that Drekels did something grand.

Rean once heard from the former Duke Kane, one of the chief culprits in the civil war, that before the final battle, Ortrus secretly sent his children to Kane's house to avoid being implicated in the defeat.

But Drykels is not a fool. After capturing the Imperial Capital, is it difficult to check if there are any children? If they are not found in the Imperial Capital, the first reaction must be the Kane family.

The Kane family is the family from which Ortrus' mother was born. Without Kane's support, Ortrus would not have become the strongest force in the "Lion War".

According to common sense, Dreckels could have initiated liquidation of the Kane family afterwards, and it was not impossible to remove the Kane family under the prevailing circumstances.

Even if you are worried that the other party has been entrenched in the west for many years and has deep influence among the nobles, rash eradication may trigger a chain reaction and make the empire, which is already weak due to civil strife, even worse.

However, there is no problem in appropriately cutting off titles and fiefdoms and cutting off their power, not to mention the reasonable requirement of tracing the descendants of the pseudo-emperor.

Moreover, the imperial royal family, the Anor family, has a long history, and its bloodline characteristics are extremely obvious and highly identifiable. It is unrealistic to play tricks like Li Dai Tao Zang.

If you think about it carefully, it's not like Drekels turned a blind eye and only killed the culprit, not harming his family and leaving a legacy for his brother.

Although as time goes by, the Kane family has long forgotten this tolerance, but as a witness of that era, another ancestor of the bloodline will not forget it.

After thinking about it, Li En decided to continue with this topic:

"Your descendants are now in Livers and are students of the second branch of Torz."

"I know." Caster nodded, "It's the child named Miao Jie. That child is not so sharp. It's probably that the characteristics of the witch and the Anor family are reflected in her. She is not a witch, but in some ways.

She is more sensitive than the witch in this regard, and I am afraid she has already noticed the changes in this land."

"Not only are we aware of it, but we have foreseen everything that may happen and are actively preparing for it."

Miu Jie Yigret, the most hidden boss among Thors, is the super crossbow-level strategist who Rean said can accurately analyze and predict the future.

"To achieve the final victory, her strength is indispensable."

"I see, but even she shouldn't have foreseen the existence of the Servant. She has never heard of such a thing - where did you get this power from?"

"I don't know either. I've said everything I know. This kind of thing is completely beyond my scope of cognition. I just feel that the mysterious existence has no malicious intent, and I do need this power. It will never be better than me.

The future we see is even worse."

"Indeed." Caster agreed, "About Miao Jie, do I need to contact her?"

"Needed, but not now. Now is not the time. Neither she nor I are ready. I hope this will not cause you any displeasure."

"I'm not the kind of person who pushes too far. If I can reappear in the world like this, it's enough to know that I and his descendants are living well. Let's go to the Imperial Museum."

"Don't you want to come any closer? You can visit the area until you reach the guard area of ​​the Guards."

"No, walking a few dozen subdistances won't make much difference."

Delekels Square is right in front of the main entrance of Balfrem Palace. From the square, you can already see the largest and oldest palace complex.

The outer walls of the palace are mainly dark red, and the surrounding buildings and the walls of the imperial capital also follow this color, eventually earning the name "Crimson Imperial Capital".

As the true heart of the empire, too many things have happened here, and there have been many witches in the past, and the Iceberg Witch is just one of them.

However, since you can't go in and can only watch from a distance, the distance really doesn't mean much. A glance is enough to commemorate or commemorate.

After taking one last look at the government office area in the palace, Rean withdrew his gaze and led Caster out of Delekels Square and towards the Imperial Museum.

As a place to display historical and cultural heritage, the museum cannot be too far away from Balfrem Palace and can be reached in just ten minutes’ walk.

Because it is an official venue with a serious atmosphere, its popularity has never been high. There are also many historical documents and antiquities on display. It was finally chosen by Rean as a place for witch nostalgia.

However, when Rean and Caster arrived near the museum, they were surprised to find that there were unexpectedly many people, almost occupying both sides of the street, and there were military police in front of the crowd to maintain order.

It can be seen from the iconic blue-grey military uniforms that they are the elite "Railway Gendarmerie" famous in the empire. Generally, they are only allowed to accompany extremely important people when they travel.

"Imperial Military Police".

"Caster, lower the intensity of your hint a little and let me ask."

Suggestion is one of the witch's secret techniques, which can interfere with the spirit. This time's suggestion is mainly ignored.

Rean is known to everyone as the "Grey Knight", and the Witch is a beauty who brings disaster to the country and people. She is the focus of everyone's attention wherever she goes, which is inconsistent with the original intention of covert operations.

With the cover of suggestion, even if someone sees them, they will pretend not to have seen them, and their voices will fall on deaf ears.

After receiving a positive reply from caster, Li En approached a passerby nearby.

"I'm sorry to bother you, but who is coming today? It's so grand."

"It's our empire's greatest treasure, Her Royal Highness Princess Elfin."

Li En's body shook quietly.

Princess Elfin is also Rean's old friend. We met two years ago and have experienced many things together. The last time we met was at the celebration banquet at the end of the "Northern Campaign" a few months ago.

In addition, she is also the best friend of Rean's sister Alisee. The two often travel together, including attending various important events.

Alfin is here, should Alice also——

Thinking this way, Li En's eyes showed a hint of expectation.
