Chapter 4: A Chance Encounter
My hero, his enemy.
On Dlaykels' side, he is, of course, a hero.
But on the side of Ortrus, Dreikers was clearly an enemy.
But Rien can be considered a child of Dreikels? How should this account be calculated?
Do you want to tell the truth yourself?
Otherwise, when the truth is revealed, this witch will definitely be dissatisfied.
It would be bad if something unplanned happens.
"That-"
Just as Lane wanted to tell the truth, the Iceberg Witch waved her hand.
"Rest assured, I'm not going to do anything, just the loser's complaint.
Dlaikels is indeed a great man, and he did not kill them all after his victory, leaving me and his descendants behind, and allowing them to continue to enjoy the position of the head of the 'Four Masters'.
I can't do this, I have to admit this favor, so I just complain. ”
Lane swallowed the words back, and let go of his hanging heart.
I have to admit that Dlaikels did a great job.
Lai had heard from one of the main culprits of the civil war, the former Duke of Kane, that before the final battle, Ortrus secretly sent the child to Kane's house to prevent the defeated child from being implicated.
But Delaikels is not a fool, after capturing the imperial capital, is it difficult to find out if there are any children? If you don't find it in the imperial capital, your first reaction must be the Kane family.
The Kane family is the family from which Otellus's mother was born, and without Kane's support, Otellus would not have become the strongest force in the "Lion Battle" for a time.
According to common sense, Dlaikels could have initiated a liquidation of the Kane family afterwards, and it was not impossible to remove the Kane family from the list under the prevailing circumstances.
Even if they have been entrenched in the west for many years, and have deep influence among the nobility, a rash eradication could trigger a chain reaction that would make the empire, already weakened by civil strife, even worse.
But it is still no problem to properly cut off the title and fief and cut off its power, let alone the reasonable request of tracing the descendants of the puppet emperor.
Moreover, the imperial royal family, the Arnoor family, has a long history, extremely obvious bloodline characteristics, and is extremely recognizable, so it is unrealistic to want to play tricks such as Li Dai Taozhuang.
If you think about it carefully, isn't it just that Dlaikels opens one eye and closes one eye, only punishes the evil, does not harm the family, and leaves a legacy for his brother.
Although the Kane family has long since forgotten this tolerance with the passage of time, as a first-hand witness of that era, another ancestor of the bloodline will not forget.
After thinking about it, Lane decided to continue with the topic:
"Your descendant is now in Livers, a student at the second branch of Tolz."
"I know." Caster nodded, "It's the child named Miao Jie, that child is not ordinary keenness, probably the characteristics of the witch and the Arnor family have been reflected in her, not the witch is more sensitive than the witch in some aspects, I'm afraid she has noticed the changes in this land." ”
"It's not just awareness, it's anticipation of what might happen and actively preparing for it."
Miu Jie Ygrete, the most hidden boss in Thorz, is a super-crossbow-level military master who can accurately analyze and predict the future in Lane's mouth.
"Her strength is indispensable if she wants to achieve ultimate victory."
"I see, but even she shouldn't have foreseen the existence of a servant, I've never heard of such a thing - where did you get this power?"
"I don't know, I've said everything I know. This kind of thing is completely beyond my cognition, I just feel that the mysterious existence has no malice, and I do need this power, and it will not be worse than the future I see. ”
"Indeed." Caster agreed, "Do you need me to contact Miao Jie about her?" ”
"Yes, but not now, it's not the time, neither she nor I are ready, I hope it won't cause you unpleasantness."
"I'm not the kind of person who has to make inches, to be able to appear in the world like this again, knowing that I and his descendants are doing well, it's enough, go to the Imperial Museum."
"Isn't it any closer? You can visit until you reach the Guards garrison range. ”
"No, it's not much difference to walk a few dozen more sub-distances."
The Place de la Laykels is located in front of the main entrance of Balfrem Palace, and the largest and oldest palace complex can already be glimpsed from the square.
The exterior wall of the palace is mainly dark red, and the surrounding buildings and the city wall of the imperial capital also follow this tone, and finally achieve the name of "crimson imperial capital".
As the true heart of the Empire, there are so many things going on here, and there are many witches in and out of it, and the Iceberg Witch is just one of them.
However, since you can't go in, you can only watch from afar, so the distance is really meaningless, and it is enough to take a look at it to pay tribute or remember.
After one last glance at the government offices in the palace, Rien withdrew his gaze and led Caster out of Dlaikels Square to the Imperial Museum.
As a place to showcase history and culture, the museum is naturally impossible to go too far from Balfrem Palace, which is only a 10-minute walk away.
Because it is an official venue and has a serious atmosphere, it has not been very popular, and there are many historical documents and antiquities on display, and it was finally chosen by Li En as a place for witch nostalgia.
However, when Rien and Caster arrived near the museum, they were surprised to find that there were so many people that they almost filled both sides of the street, and there were gendarmes in front of the crowd to maintain order.
From the iconic blue-gray military uniform, it can be seen that they are the elite "railway gendarmerie" of the famous empire. Generally, only extremely important people will be escorted when they travel, but if the weight is a little worse, it will only be the "Imperial Capital Gendarmerie".
"Caster, lower the hint a little, and I'll ask."
Hints are one of the witch's secret arts, which can interfere with the spirit, and this hint is mainly ignored.
Li En is a well-known "Gray Knight", and the witches are all beauties who have brought disaster to the country and the people, and they are the focus of everyone's attention wherever they go, which is inconsistent with the original intention of the covert operation.
With the cover of suggestion, even if someone sees them, they will be treated as if they don't see it, and the sound they make will be treated as wind in their ears.
After receiving Caster's affirmative answer, Lane approached a passer-by.
"I'm sorry to disturb me, may I ask who is coming today, so grand."
"It's the treasure of our empire, Her Royal Highness the Empress Elfin."
Lien's body shook quietly.
The Empress Elfing, who is also Dawn's deceased, met two years ago and had been through a lot together, the most recent of which was at the celebration of the end of the "Northern Campaign" a few months ago.
In addition, she is also the best friend of Riene's sister Elyse, and the two often act together, including attending various important events.
Elfin is here, should Elyse also-
Thinking like this, there was a touch of anticipation in Lee's eyes.
