Act 59 The Wife and the Husband
As for the origins of the Sifah family, it is known that it actually came from the empire, and the Cruz people of the family are of far greater blood than the natives of Eruin.
Its origins go back to the pre-ancient times of the Empire, and as Miss Tata and Root suggest, the ancestors of the Siphah family, the ancestors of the Elder Ek, may have been the chief knights who followed Geert, the Lord of Fire.
This history is glorious for the small kingdom of Eruin, but it is probably the most glorious and the only history worth mentioning for the Siphah family.
But it's nothing.
After the Battle of the Sages, the families formed by the descendants of such heroes were like stars on the continent, and there were countless of them.
Most of them have been lost to history, leaving no trace. Although the Sifah family is lucky to survive in this history, it is actually not confident compared to those ancient nobles who really have a background.
It's as if the nobility of the kingdom is not comparable to the nobility of the empire.
To compare the background, where can the Sifah family compare to the royal family of today's Cruz people and the royal family of Faenzan, these are the descendants of the two sages, but their descendants still can't have treasures, how can the Sifah family have anything to do with it.
The more Brando thought about it, the more suspicious he became, not to mention the Sifah family, even if it was Eruin, it was difficult for him to have the strength to keep such a treasure. What kind of secret can this family have, his biggest secret is nothing more than the era of the Battle of the Sages, and the history of that era is at most a drop in the ocean compared to the history of the Vaund Continent.
He held up the necklace in his hand and asked one of the souls who were lodged in his spiritual world, "Miss Tiamas, do you know anything?" ”
"How did you get this necklace?" Bai asked.
"It was given to me by a little girl, the sister of the heir of the Sifah family." Brando replied truthfully.
"Little girl." Bai chuckled and said, "I'm afraid it has a lot to do with you, she is a core member of the Sifah family, and she must know the value of this necklace." She is willing to give this thing to you, at least revealing two messages, one is that she knows that the place you are going next may be in danger of life, and the other is that she values you very much, otherwise this necklace is as important to her as a second life, how can it be handed over to you lightly. ”
Brando couldn't help but think of the quirky little princess of the Siphach family. It was really hard for him to imagine that such a young girl could have so many thoughts, when the other party gave him this necklace, he really wanted to go to the imperial capital separately from her.
For the average person, the place he was going to next was really a place of death, and Chiara obviously knew what he was going to do, so she gave him this necklace.
Brando's heart was heavy, no matter what he thought, but he had to recognize this favor.
At this moment, he thought of the Siphah family, and thought of Chiara's brother. The blind eldest son of the emperor, the other party is obviously also the chosen one, he has the ability to rule a country. It's a pity that this era doesn't belong to him, and Brando knows that he can't betray his ideas, and he can't help but have a headache for a while.
"Why does the Sifah family have such a thing, and what is it? Eternal and immortal? Brando asked with some reverence.
But Bai didn't seem to notice his wandering, and continued to himself: "Eternal and immortal? Of course not. While they do have something to do with it, the words of the mountain come from something that is eternal and immortal. It was actually fragmented pieces, which were fashioned into six diamonds, known as the 'Heart of Sifah', and were kept by the core members of the Sifah family for generations. ”
"Of the six diamonds, three have been used, and one is missing. Now the Sifah family still has in the hands, in addition to the one in your hand, there should be only one left, in the hands of the legendary emperor's eldest son. ”
"And how did the Sifah family get them?" Brando asked.
"You want to know?" Bai suddenly asked, "That's a long story. ”
"It's okay," Brando thought she was perfunctory. Shaking his head, he replied, "What we have here is time. ”
Shiro paused.
Suddenly, he said quietly, "I once knew an Eruin man. ”
“…… His name was Villefort, and he was a collateral descendant of the Sifah family, whose ancestors were disassociated with the current Sifah family during the Fossa Rebellion. His ancestors had come to the south to avoid the turmoil and settle in what is now Gendener, where he had a wife and a decent family......"
"Villefort was a traveler, and I became acquainted with him during our travels, and our friendship became close in the course of several trials and tribulations - of course, it was a deliberate illusion on my part, and I knew that he was a descendant of the Sifah family, and that he was related to one of the Sifah hearts, so I took the initiative to get acquainted with him."
Bai recounted, his voice a little low, as if telling a distant story, telling the details of that story: "...... In order to gain his trust, I arranged a series of events to convince him that he was being targeted by an evil organization in order to covet some of the Sifah family's legacies and treasures, in fact, the Sifah Heart. ”
"Of course, there will be deaths, but I don't care. To me, those people are just ants. Over the millennia, I had become cold and insensitive—not a derogatory assessment to me, of course—but I once thought it was a compliment. I hired some men and then killed them in front of Villefort in order to gain his trust...... But I never lied to him, because those people died of their own greed. ”
Brando frowned, and while he could understand the other party's motives, he couldn't accept her way of doing things. This woman is even crazier than the Silver Queen, because Constance was still under the influence of the dark side of her own heart, and she never deliberately pursued ruthlessness and killing, but only chose what she thought was the most efficient.
Compared to it, this sister of Medisha is simply unreasonable, and Brando doesn't know if it's because a thousand years is too long. Loneliness and paranoia made her what she was.
But the only thing he was thankful for was that at least he didn't see any of this kind of character in Metisa.
White didn't care what Brando thought, she continued: "At the end of this plan, I killed his wife, but rescued his two children. ”
"What?" Brando almost couldn't hold back a cry of surprise.
"What, you have a problem with my approach?" Shiro's voice turned cold. asked lightly.
"It's hard not to have an opinion." Although there is a request for the other party, Brando does not intend to compliment the woman.
"Then you can kill me to show your righteousness." Bai seemed to have taken the wrong medicine, and the words became a little sharp, and he said-for-tat.
Brando shook his head, he wasn't at ease, but he wasn't ready to become a messenger of justice. As long as Shiro doesn't threaten the people around him, he won't attack her, no matter what. The other party is also Medisa's sister.
"Hmph, hypocrisy."
"Go on." Brando just said.
These two words made Bai silent for a moment, and then continued: "He loves his wife very much, and the death of his wife hit him hard, and I was always by his side during that time, and later I took his wife's place and became the mother of his two children......"
Brando was dumbfounded, and for a moment he didn't know what to make of the whole thing. But he finally understood Bai's tone at the moment, and couldn't help but ask with some gossip: "Are you in love with him?" ”
"Shut up." Bai replied coldly, "It has nothing to do with you. ”
"And after that?"
"Then I finally found an opportunity to ask him questions about the heart of Siphah that he had. I also got the answers I wanted from him. ”
“…… He loved me as much as he loved his deceased wife, so when I accidentally 'found' his necklace once, he didn't hide it when confronted with my inquiries and told me a word about it. According to him. The Heart of Siphah comes from a place called Osopao, which is neither in Cruz nor in Eruin, and in fact it is doubtful that even it actually exists in Vainde. ”
"Because Osopao is in the ancient language. In fact, it means 'not existing', and this is where the heart of Sifach comes from. They are one of the common pieces of an eternal thing, which are split in two, one of which is fashioned into six diamonds, known as the Words of the Mountain, or the Heart of Siphah. ”
"These six diamonds were actually brought out by Tumen, and they somehow came to Gert, the King of Fire, and then passed them on to the ancestors of the Siphah family, and brought them to Eruin."
"They were brought to the ...... Eruin"
"You should also know something about this land known as the place of miracles, these six diamonds are obviously closely related to the whereabouts and belonging of the Flame Blade, all to ensure that the inheritance of this holy sword will not be lost." Bai replied.
"Actually, I think I've heard of Villefort......," said Brando, suddenly.
“…… What the? ”
"But I have a few questions, Miss Tiamas, what happened to the story between you and him? Did you take the heart of Siphah? And you said that the pieces of the eternal immortal were split in two, so where did the rest go? ”
Brando didn't expect that his question would cause such a long silence.
After a long time, Bai replied quietly:
"After I gave birth to two daughters for him, I killed him because I knew I had to leave. But I spared him and his deceased wife's children, and bequeathed the heart of Siphah to his descendants—"
Brando had already expected this answer, but he was still a little surprised: "You didn't take Sifah's heart?" ”
"What I am looking for is something truly eternal and immortal, but the Heart of Siphah is not, it is precious, but it is not worth mentioning in my eyes. I've got what I wanted, and naturally I don't care about these things. ”
"The clue to the eternal immortality has something to do with the other half of those fragments, right?"
