took the other party to his palace.

Sean asked Elija to call all the palace maids away, leaving her to pour tea for herself.

They all sat down quietly......

Sean looked at the other party in a calm manner, with a state of "waiting!] and "thinking!" hanging above his head.

Presumably, the high priest must have guessed what he wanted to ask.

Look at the level of the other party: [HP, Human], a standard orderer level 15 character.

A person who can reach more than a dozen levels is a person with real strength, Sean has fought with the court wizard of the Basharan Empire once before, no matter what magic he uses, the other party will almost kill himself in one move.

If it weren't for Frelia's presence at the time, it is estimated that he would really have to rely on the favor of the Lord of Time to bet on whether he would be alive or not.

But one thing is for sure, he was a level 5 orderer at the time, and he was completely helpless in front of the other side...... The level of suppression completely overshadows the bug of being able to see the casting conditions.

Even if you know in advance that the other party is going to set fire, you can't use your existing magic to resist it.

And the high priest in front of him is a person of level 15 of the order, and his ability is strong enough, and he is also the number one person among the people he has seen these days.

Illya poured tea beside her......

Honey is added to the Edak tea, which is sweet and moisturizing and very refreshing in this weather.

And Sean did let people put salt.

"Huh? The smell of tea. ”

"What does the High Priest think? I had salt put in it. Sean said with a smile on the other party's surprised expression.

"No wonder it's a little salty, but it's sweeter over time. ”

"As long as you have a good amount of it, this is actually a good tea to relieve the heat, and the high priest can try it himself next time. ”

"Well, definitely, definitely have to try. ”

After two drinks, the small talk was over, and Sean was ready to ask for the answer he wanted.

"Does the High Priest know why I called you?"

"It has something to do with the Empress. "It seems that the other party did guess, but only a little.

"It does have something to do with my mother, but there are other things. ”

At this moment, the other party's eyes suddenly changed.

It has always been the favorability of [Respect] that makes Sean speak freely, and it can be seen from the history introduced by the other party before that the current Sun Temple was re-established in the year when his mother succeeded to the throne.

Although there is a big difference in age, these people in front of him are all subordinates of their mothers, so their attitude towards themselves is relatively good.

"I know Your Highness will come to ask this question sooner or later, but I still have to warn you...... Don't get too much into the things of the ancient gods, there are many unknowns in them. ”

Really.

The high priest nevertheless uttered this counsel.

Ancient gods, that is actually the ancient god believers...... The names are different in each place, but as long as you say it, people can understand it.

"I just want to understand why. ”

The empress said the same thing back then, but then she fell deeper and deeper into it, and she kept talking nonsense and died within a few years. "Probably because of the Sun King's absence, this time the High Priest spoke more bluntly.

I see.

My mother was implicated in studying those things.

Sean has witnessed the true face of the ancient gods twice, at least some of the clones of the ancient gods.

The tension and madness of that time in Old Tacoma is terrifying even now, but Yogsothos was better later.

The other party has never really descended into the world, but just looks down on the world in the distant stars with a high posture that humans cannot understand.

Just the last time in the royal palace of the Basalan Empire should be the closest it came to.

However, the time of this world completely collapsed at that moment, and it is estimated that even in the Adak region, there may not be any memory of those few minutes.

If all this has to do with those old gods, it's tricky!

"But even if you don't say I'll still look for it, after all, it has something to do with my mother, so ...... I hope the High Priest will tell me the truth. Sean pleaded.

This is the only way to get the high priest to speak.

The other party still persuaded a few words, and finally sighed and said.

"This kind of thing will only get deeper and deeper, does Your Highness know why the Empress came back in the first place?" asked a question that Sean thought was silly.

If you knew, what would you be worried about!

"When the Empress was still there, she often told me about her time in the town, where she was poor but every day was very happy, especially when she was with Baron Vegel and after the birth of Her Highness. ”

As if reminiscing, he told Sean the story of the modern-day empress.

"When the Empress first passed the throne to the Sun King, she really just wanted her younger brother to succeed to the throne, and she ran out just to force us courtiers to support the Sun King's throne. ”

“...... The empress has been walking alone in the desert countries for many years, which can be regarded as improving her ability, and at the same time, she has also discovered the existence of those ancient gods, and she has been looking for something to make her walk to the Basalan Empire. ”

The story of the High Priest fits the story that Sean had heard in the town.

The town is indeed relatively remote, but according to Igonia's little girl, the tomb was once a hidden place for a certain wizard, and he may have left something there that has led generations of explorers to come to the town.

That's how her mother must have come, but she didn't expect to stay in the small town of Telemian and marry the baron there.

Counting the previous generation of Baron Vegel, he was lucky, and he married an imperial empress honestly, and he was still the empress of the entire Adak.

"Then why did she come back?"

"It was also because of this incident that the Sun King heard that the Empress might have gone to see it in person after Bashalan, but unfortunately he didn't find it, but the Empress didn't know where she heard that someone was going to be bad for the royal family, so she came back later. ”

All the stories go back to more than a decade ago about his mother and the town......

"What did she hear from above?and whether the High Priest knew the name Nyaratotip. ”

"I once heard it from the mouth of the Empress, and this is a god worshiped by some ancient god cult...... Maybe it's not the right name either, it's just a random name they say. ”

"What organization?" asked Sean.

"Pharaonic Brotherhood...... A name that appeared in the desert nations ten years ago, but has slowly disappeared in recent years. ”

"Did they have anything to do with my mother's death?"

"There is no direct relationship, there are many ancient gods and religions that the empress was doing research at that time...... But a few days before her final death, she came to me and told me about an evil god in an ancient land beyond the sea. ”
