Chapter Twenty-Eight: Blood

In this way, it was the power of the new king that sent him to the throne of the Grand Duke, so why is it called the new king?

"Hmm." A terrifying expression flashed in Heloise's eyes, and she said secretly, "Sixteen years ago, the former king [Severa Targaryen] was assassinated, and died along with his eldest daughter of 7 years old and his younger daughter under 4 years old. The assassination swept through the court, inside and out, from the guards to the servants, and the blood dragged from the palace gates to the king's bedchambers.

At that time, the new king [Olivia Villiers], who had not yet succeeded to the throne, led his subordinates to come to the rescue, but it was too late, even if the assassins were annihilated, they were still powerless.

At the same time, after learning of the king's assassination, Sekored and Pelos made an agreement to take advantage of the attack.

In this case, the Grand Duke of Olivia, who organized the army to fight on the front line, led his subordinate knights to contain the attack of the other Grand Duke before they could fight.

It was this battle that established the glory of Olivia and the reputation of the civilian knight Rosa Linde.

Later, Olivia was elected as the new king, and Rosalind became a great heroic knight, and was naturally named the new lord and the new Grand Duke. β€œ

Heloise spoke short and powerful, and her voice was hoarse, sounding like iron.

In Robin's mind, he could roughly imagine what had happened at that time, and what a difficult situation the new king Olivia had won.

Sixteen years ago......

His heart pounded, and many fragments of memory sprung up in his brainβ€”

Huge castles, armor, heavy night fog, silverheads, explosions, ...... in dreams

and the car accident in this world.

Teenage girl face ...... Bloody.

Robin only felt like a drowning man, his breathing stagnant.

There was a wonderful feeling in his heart that what had happened sixteen years ago was extremely important to him.

"So, what would God have done in that assassination that year? Did a silver-haired clergyman cause a huge explosion? Robin spoke in an almost eager and frenzied tone, and his eyes were full of indescribable madness.

Heloise was stunned.

But, in the next second, she jerked her hand and grabbed Robin's collar.

He was lifted from the ground.

Robin tugged at her hand and looked at each other deadly.

I don't understand why I suddenly angered her.

"How do you know?" A fierce glint flashed in Heloise's eyes, "About that explosion?!" ”

"That ......explosion," Robin was shocked, "so there really was an explosion, right?" ”

His gaze burned like flames.

"Heloise, tell me, what's going on?"

He was not afraid of the other party's threat at all, even if the giant hand was grabbing the collar, Heloise did not dare to do anything to him.

The other looked at him in disbelief.

Long.

As if impressed by his persistence and fearlessness, she slowly lowered her hand and looked away.

"I don't know much about that explosion. All I can tell you is that sixteen years ago, the explosion took place not in Itnair, but in the Commandment City of Sekorid. ”

There was a rare seriousness and horror on her face, and her voice was low and hoarse, "That was shortly after the assassination of the former king.

There was a violent explosion in the City of Discipline, known to the people of Sekorid as the Starfire Plague.

The connection between these two events is not clear to anyone, but at that time, the chief priest of the Divine Society appeared in the explosion, and was framed by the Sekorids as the culprit of the explosion. β€œ

"Lord Priest?" Robin only felt a tingling in his hands and feet, his brain became dizzy, and his heart beat extremely fast and violently.

"Does she have long silver hair? The Lord Priest? ”

"Nope." Heloise shook her head, "She has long, shiny black hair like silk. ”

How could it be...... Such......

Robin hung his head in disappointment.

If not, then who?

This incident also became an excuse for Secreed and Pelos to send troops later. But ......"

Heloise turned her head and looked at Robin with blazing eyes, "No matter what others say, I firmly believe in her innocence." ”

Her chest heaved and her breathing became rapid.

Robin's whole body shuddered, and he was burned by that gaze.

"The Chosen One, Robin." Heloise solemnly called his name, "Please, later, when you return to Itnell, use your own eyes, your own hands, and your own wisdom to find the truth." ”

Find the truth.

Robin looked at his hands in a daze.

Can I really do it?

Can I really not be fooled by lies?

And what Heloise believes in, isn't it really a lie?

He didn't know.

However, he nodded and said firmly, "Okay." Heloise. ”

A smile slowly appeared on the other party's stiff face, which was as unchanged as a statue.

……

Robin's conversation with Heloise was now all in the ears of the other man.

Above their heads, on the top of a wide hill above the cave, sat a slender archer.

She wore a black cloak, her hood pulled back down, and her long gray hair was gently blown back by the wind.

Two pointy violet ears are exposed.

On her back, she carried a black longbow without strings.

The archer's right leg is slightly bent, and his left leg lies straight on the rocky ground.

Below is an endless sea of trees, churning in the breeze.

The rustling sound made the night even more lonely.

She was wiping a short silver-white dagger, and at the moment her right hand, holding the hilt of the knife in her left hand, stopped holding the rag.

In the turquoise eyes, there was a slight ripple.

Starlight cast dappled shadows on her, and the female archer was as cold as eternal ice.

"I care so much about that explosion." The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she muttered in a barely audible voice, "The new Chosen One is really interesting." ”
