Hagen and his younger brother Hal were born into a military family, having been in the military since his grandfather's generation. Gradually, the family gained a firm foothold in the army and accumulated a lot of contacts. In his father's generation, they did not choose to join the Silver Flame Knights, who had a long history of glory, but chose the Royal Praetorian Guard, which guarded the royal family. In the same way, his father met his mother, who was not equal at the time.

Schilling; Raya, the daughter of the commander of the Praetorian Guard at the time, and her father Tra; Su Liepei fell in love with her at first sight and vowed to marry her. After continuous efforts and continuous achievements in the army, Tra finally made him move to the position of the vanguard of the blade, which is enough to be worthy of Shirin's identity.

The two made a lifelong promise under the statue of the goddess, and later successfully became the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and gave birth to two brothers, Hagen and Howl. is an envied family in the eyes of others, not only has a happy family, but also has an admirable identity, it can be said that God has given the two brothers the most beautiful things. However, the trajectory of their lives was completely changed by a bizarre accident.

During a seemingly simple reconnaissance mission, their parents both mysteriously disappeared and never appeared in front of their eyes again. It was as if the sky had suddenly fallen, and the two weak children had lost their warmest and safest haven.

Although his father Terra has made a lot of friends on the way to his career, he has also established a lot of people who covet them in the shadows, and this is a good opportunity to completely take their place, after all, the identity of the commander of the Royal Praetorian Guard, in terms of power, is a few points higher than the head of the Silver Flame Knights, and it is the only opportunity to have access to the most core secrets of the country.

After that, the two brothers were taken in by their father's former mentor and taught them martial arts, and the time flashed for more than ten years. In their hearts, they have been thinking about their parents, and hope that one day they can find out the truth of what happened back then.

"Brother, in this place where people eat people, no one is trustworthy, even your brother and me!"

When these words came out of Hagen's mouth, the young Hal was even more stunned, and he saw the terrible killing intent flashing in his own brother's eyes.

It wasn't until the two brothers were adults that during the Praetorian Guard Reserve Establishment Assessment, Hal once again saw the chill that had been burned in his heart when he was a child.

"Killed?" The candidates waiting for the assessment around them suddenly screamed, and they saw Hagen directly kill his opponent on the spot, and the methods were extremely cruel.

Even Hal couldn't imagine what was in his brother's heart that drove him to do this. However, this time, the assessment and murder escaped punishment within the scope of the rules.

At that time, the new commander of the Praetorian Guard couldn't help but marvel at Hagen's performance: "He resembles his father, and even surpasses him." ”

What happened next was as the story goes, Hagen and Hal became members of the Praetorian Guard, and in just two years, Hagen had become the vanguard officer of a small regiment of the Praetorian Guard. At that time, it was predicted that he would return to the highest position in their family, just like his father.

Yes, everyone's eyes were bright, and Hagen did not disappoint everyone, growing up at a terrible rate, but like his father, he fell in love with a woman who was not equal at that time.

For many years, the two brothers have been thinking about their parents, and the identity of this woman allows them to take a lot of shortcuts to find out what happened back then, and maybe they can find out the truth. Qi Xue; Morgidan, daughter of the head of the Copywriting Bureau of the Royal Praetorian Guard.

However, at that time, Qi Xue had a marriage contract with the son of the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and at this time, Hagen's identity and power were undoubtedly hitting the stone with an egg.

"Because Hagen has seriously violated military discipline and secretly gathered a gang in an attempt to split the Janissaries, he will be sent to the Spiral Cloister for hard labor with immediate effect, and he will not be allowed to enter Kotkole for the rest of his life."

This was the verdict, and as his younger brother, Hal escaped with Qi Xue's fierce plea, only to be sentenced to complete the duty order in the city for enough time, but was also closely watched in the shadows.

Before Hagen was deported, he secretly left Hal a letter in which he wrote:

Dear brother, when you read this letter, I have embarked on my own path, which is a reality that we are powerless to change, but it is a mission that cannot be forgotten in our hearts. I didn't fulfill the task my parents gave me, which was to take care of you, my little brother, who I couldn't let go of the most. But people have to grow up eventually, and I believe you have the power to make yourself stronger.

The content of the letter was very simple, so simple that Hal couldn't believe that it was written by his brother, but when he saw his brother's signature, the slightly pale ink transcription, he seemed to have found something.

It was an ink that only the two of their brothers could use, a recipe they had learned from an ancient book, and its purpose was to hide the spiritual energy fluctuations carried by the runes, and it could only be unlocked with the manifestation potion that the two of them had concocted.

After all, this is the only thing Hagen left behind, and it will inevitably be checked by the Praetorian Guard, and since Hagen thinks of using this ink to cover up the information left behind, it must be something very important.

Hal returned to the basement of his home with the letter and pulled out a pale green clear potion from an old display case. Hal took out a few drops and carefully dropped them to the letter from Hagen.

Suddenly, a burst of green dust drifted away from the place where it was dropped, condensing into a phantom shadow of Hagen's avatar in the air. At this point, he had a serious face and began to speak in his usual low tone.

"I hope this letter will fall into your hands, and I'm sure you'll find out that there is my spiritual power left in this place." Hagen paused, then took a deep breath from the figure in the shadow, as if with a great deal of determination.

"This image was specially left for you, and it is not surprising that by the time you saw it, I had managed to escape from the escort party that was holding me."

Hearing Hagen say this, Hal couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't expect his brother to do such a thing, even though he knew that his brother was framed by someone.

"My parents' affairs, which have plagued me for more than 20 years, finally got this opportunity by me. In fact, you also know that the reason why I approached Qi Xue was to use her identity to enter the copywriting bureau to check the detailed records of the parents' tasks back then, but I still want you to take care of her, after all, she doesn't know it, and the reason why I choose to tell you this now is because you have to stay here, stay here and take care of everything for me. ”

At this time, Hagen's voice began to become chopped, and the condensed head phantom began to dissipate.

"Because... I can't sustain it for long... psionic images, so I pulled out the memories of what I saw. Remember, when you can stand closest to God, that's when we brothers meet. ”

Suddenly, the sound stopped abruptly, the image slowly dissipated, and the remaining light condensed, turning into a filament glowing with green light, and falling into Howl's hand.

Hal immediately pulled out a large silver mirror from under the table, and then placed the filament in the center of the mirror, and the mirror instantly rippled like a spring, slowly forming a vortex to absorb the filament. The whirlpool continued to expand, and finally it grew bigger and bigger. Looking at the black part in the center of the swirl eye, there was a bright star inside.

Hal was attracted by the magnificent scenery, and the shining stars suddenly brightened, and a powerful suction force swept Howl's consciousness into the whirlpool. The huge oppressive force hit in an instant, pressing Haar out of breath, his scalp was numb, he felt his consciousness becoming more and more blurred, the bright stars in front of him kept skimming his eyes, and the sharp wind pressure continued to blow through his face, so that his almost collapsed nerves could be cleared up a little.

With a sonic boom in his ears, Hal felt the effect of gravity and staggered to the ground, only to realize that he had come to an alley.

The touch from his five senses was so real that he knew it was now in his brother's memory. Judging from the sky, it is dusk, the shops on the street are tidying up, and the pedestrians on the road are also on the way home.

Hal looked around, and a familiar figure walked in front of him, and he recognized it as Hagen at a glance, so he hurried to follow him.

As he followed, Hal noticed that the date was August 6, 1065, on the tall bell tower in the central square.

This is Qi Xue's birthday, and her brother must have come out to buy gifts with her, but why is it going in the direction of the outer city, the clerk's mansion is obviously in the inner city.

Looking at the silver flame markings underground, Hal knew that this street was now the famous Constantine Street, and the colorful lights here at night reflected the silver flame emblems on the flags on both sides of the street was a special sight.

Ha followed Constantine Avenue through Fervet Street until he reached a tavern at the end of the street. He looked around for a moment, pondering for a moment before pushing open the old wooden door.

Hal looked at the door sign on the top of the shop, which said Mondstadt Tavern, which wasn't the place he often spent with Hagen at night.

As soon as you enter the tavern, you will be greeted by the strong smell of wheat, and this tavern is famous for its dark beer and wheat, and many officers in the inner city will order beer here for their celebratory feasts.

The dim light contrasted strongly with the outside, and Hal felt unnatural all over his body when he entered. A few drunks were sleeping soundly on simple wooden chairs, apparently having a hangover from last night, with a disgusting smell of alcohol and a mixture of wine and saliva on the corners of their mouths.

Hagen nodded to the bartender who was wiping his glasses in front of the wine station, and then the bartender placed a golden coin beside him.

Hagen's robe-concealed hand swept across the table, leaving behind a shield coin and taking it away, before entering a small private room.

Hal wanted to follow him in, but found that he was blocked by a strange aura when he walked to the door, and could not take any further steps, so he had to stand in front of the door and listen to their discussion.

"You've decided?" An old female voice asked Hagen, and through the crack in the door, he saw that the man was covered by a white robe, and he couldn't see his face at all, but Hagen sat respectfully across from her.

"Well, tonight is the best chance, my move has been targeted from above, I'm afraid I'll have to leave here soon."

Hagen said calmly, stroking the faded ring in his hand. It was a gift from their mother when the two brothers were born, and Hal subconsciously touched his own.

"Are you worried about your brother?" Although the old man's voice is old, it exudes a kind atmosphere, which makes people feel very warm.

Hagen didn't answer, and the look on his face showed that the old man was right. Hal also knows that his brother's biggest worry in his life is himself, and he has hidden a lot of secrets in his heart for so many years, and he would rather bear it alone than let him worry.

"Since you have decided, I will not stop you, as for what will happen in the future, we will only know when it comes."

The old man said slowly, and then two bottles of potions of different colors appeared in his thin hands, and then explained their uses.

"You also know the purpose of the white bottle, and as for the red bottle, just sprinkle it on your body before you go in, so that the forbidden spell they set will not work."

Hagen looked at the two bottles of potion cautiously, then clenched them in his hands and nodded heavily to the old man.

"It's really bothering you, and you have to worry about us so much."

"This body has entered the countdown to life, although I have not found it yet, but in your eyes, I see his shadow." The old man also sighed, and the face covered by the robe showed her mouth slightly at this time, and she could be seen smiling.

At this moment, a drunken man happened to take a disordered step and bumped into Hal in the direction. The drunkard's blurred vision seemed to see a woman standing in front of him, and he shouted: "Beauty, uncle is here, don't run." ”

Luckily, Hal turned around and dodged the drunk. The drunk stumbled open the door and fell in front of the private room.

Hal was slightly startled, but soon realized that the picture in his memory would not appear of his own, so he turned his head to return his attention to the room, only to find that the white-robed old man had disappeared.

I heard Hagen holding the coin and saying with a firm expression: "I will definitely find out the truth." ”

The street lamps on the street have been lit up, the full moon in the middle of the quiet night sky, the tranquil silver light sprinkled on the earth, and the surrounding stars seem to echo, the whole picture is as enchanting as a dream.

Qi Xue had been waiting for her beloved to arrive at her residence for a long time, the light in front of the house illuminated the pale yellow dress on her body, her quiet face was so beautiful, and her big shining eyes were staring at the front motionlessly, for fear that she would not be able to see her beloved if she was distracted.
