Although it is named after a palace, it is actually a group of palaces.
Since Emperor Hector recaptured the imperial capital, it took dozens of generations of emperors and hundreds of years to build and expand it again and again, until it became the largest palace complex in Samlia today.
In the center of the palace complex, there is the oldest building.
Legend has it that it is the only intact building among the ruins destroyed by disasters, and it once served as the main hall of the royal palace.
Later, with the passage of time, the scale of the palace expanded, and it gradually became a memorial place with more historical significance than practical significance.
I don’t know which emperor it started from, but this became the memorial hall of the Arnall family. There are portraits of each generation of emperors from the founding of the country to the present, and below there are records of achievements and major events related to the emperors.
The childhood enlightenment of every member of the royal family is here.
Of course, when there are no children in need of enlightenment and no major events that need to be recorded, except for necessary cleaning and maintenance, this can be regarded as the quietest place in the palace.
Levi and Joshua are here now.
Ling was placing cards outside and interfering with her spiritual veins. Being targeted by Enaya, Ling was still trying to find ways to delay, just to ensure that the two of them could sneak into the deepest part of the palace smoothly.
Even though Levi is a servant and has extraordinary strength, even though Joshua is a top-notch stealth master at the time, he still needs to be mentally alert when there are so many masters in the palace.
It is absolutely impossible to stroll around the grounds of Grancel like Caser did, and he would not even dare to enter the emperor's palace and wait there.
Only in this secluded historical corridor can you relax a little.
They were waiting, waiting for the banquet to come to an end, waiting for the guests to disperse, and waiting for the fellow countrymen who were still trapped in the nightmare to take action.
The trouble should end it.
Hatred cannot be solved by "talk therapy" alone.
Both of them came here this way.
During the long wait, the two people, who had nothing to do, began to browse every painting and record in the corridor in order.
With excellent night vision, you can still see clearly even without turning on the lights.
——It turns out that so many things have happened in the empire.
——It turns out that the empire once had so many outstanding emperors.
This is the biggest emotion for both of them.
There is no way, who let the two of them come from the countryside without receiving much decent education.
Levi is a little better. At least he has completed Sunday school, and has supplemented information from the Servant system, so he still understands the history of the empire.
Joshua was even worse. He left the empire early. Even if he and Estelle received relevant education, including guerrilla training, it was in Liber.
It is no exaggeration to say that Joshua knows far more about Liber than the Empire. Even without the Hamel tragedy, Joshua would not have much sense of belonging to the Empire, far less than Liber where his family and friends are.
In fact, based on their current experience and state of mind, it is not that they do not understand that the country that still exists today cannot lack heroes and great men, let alone be useless, otherwise it would have been submerged in the long river of history.
Even if Libel is full of favorability, there is really no dark shadow or scandal? Queen Alicia has been in power for decades, and she can tell the truth without being stained. Do you believe it?
It's just that some things, without personal contact and personal experience, are always separated by a layer, and it is difficult to have a deep understanding.
On the other side of the corridor, under the portrait of the current emperor You Kent, two men stopped at the same time.
No one spoke.
Just stand there.
Silent.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the younger Joshua let out a long sigh. Just as he was about to speak, Levi waved his hand tacitly: "You don’t need to say anything, I understand everything. Maybe Yokent III was not wrong. He entered the army after the war."
There is nothing wrong with Osborne in politics - but is there anything wrong with the Hamel we live in?
My parents, Karin and your father
Mother, John's family, everyone living peacefully in the village, is there something wrong?
In the final analysis, this is not a question of right or wrong, but a stance.
Now that he has become the emperor of the empire, he must shoulder this responsibility. Now that the person directly responsible has been executed, besides him, who else can John turn to?
You can’t say that it was wrong for John to seek justice for Hamel.”
"Can't." Joshua said.
He was healed by Estelle and influenced by the Bright family, and decided to let go of the past, but there is no such thing in the world as asking those who have experienced it to let go of the blood feud.
"So, we just need to bear witness. At most, we can keep an eye on John and avoid the worst consequences."
Levi was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "That's right."
If it were him and Joshua in the past, they would probably just focus on revenge. As for what will happen to the empire in the future, what does it have to do with us? The worst we can do is leave here and never return to this sad place.
However, after all, they are not the cold-blooded killers they used to be, especially Joshua, who has become more and more sunny after meeting the sun that belongs to him.
Maybe saying this feels a little sorry for the people who have passed away, but he doesn't hate Joshua like this.
Of course, he won't hate Kaling who is with him.
Ever since the two of them came into the world together, she has been smiling, and she smiles knowingly.
Withdrawing his gaze and no longer looking at the past of the empire and the royal family, Levi lowered his eyes and concentrated on perception.
"Ling's arrangement worked... Maser promised to cooperate with us and mobilized some security personnel..."
"What good news."
Joshua was shocked.
He has experienced how strong the perception of Yaha Itto-ryu Shoden is.
I think back then, when he was in his peak killer state, his almost "unintentional" assassination failed to cause any harm to Cassius.
It's a pity that neither I nor Estelle just learned a little bit of Baye's skills and failed to truly be included in the door.
Although Cassius did not say the reason, Joshua could easily guess with his mind that it was simply a matter of poor compatibility or lack of qualifications.
I have to admit that there are differences between people. In the end, we can only do what Cassius said, follow the steps, be ourselves, calm down, and wait for the opportunity.
Something like Tao cannot be obtained by deliberately pursuing it.
Many times, it's just the opposite.
——I don’t seek the Tao, the Tao will come naturally.
"It's almost time for us to leave."
While talking, completely eliminate the breath.
Levi also dispersed at the same time. Just a second before entering the spirit state, the always cold face suddenly changed:
"No, Ling was discovered, we - no, let's spread out!"
"!!!"
Joshua didn't have time to ask further, and his body started to move first. However, after running a few steps, the heavy door in front of him was suddenly pushed open.
There was a beautiful woman standing at the door.
Although he is not wearing armor, his momentum and courage are still Wu Shuang's.
His clear eyes swept over the two men hiding in the dark, and his voice was solemn:
