Chapter 410: Searching for the Truth
Why?
What is the truth?
Why won't everyone tell me the truth?
Sakura sat down on the ground and put down the last document in his hand weakly, feeling physically and mentally exhausted and quite tired. Spread out in front of her were ancient historical books and manuscripts that had been read countless times.
After four months of precipitation, Sakura finally calmed down and no longer showed any extreme emotions about Roland's death. But that doesn't mean she's put this matter down in her heart.
What happened to Roland?
What happened to Rand?
What really happened between the two of them!!
After Luo Xiu's previous words, Sakura Feng finally gradually accepted such an ending, and understood that in this matter, everyone had to suffer. There is no absolute right or absolute wrong, but this does not mean that Sakura agrees with the king's approach. There are still doubts in her heart that have not been solved, making her sleepless day and night, tossing and turning.
Sakura wants to know the truth.
Those things about demons are still a mystery to this day, and Sakura has to reflect on what role demons played in previous events. So she desperately flipped through all the information related to the demon, but still found nothing.
Although Roland's biggest crime is to collude with the devil and kill the minister. But Sakura's heart is quite clear: although that incident does have a significant relationship with the demon, it is definitely not what the outside world understands.
During the time when he was knocked unconscious by Roland, what really happened in Castlevania?
After returning to Two Moon City, why did Roland and Rand oppose each other, and did it have anything to do with demons?
And the Archimedes thing......
In the Archimedes incident, two high demons died in the palace, and it is said that the king's expression was quite subtle at that time, could it be that there are some secrets hidden in the palace?
And the Holy Court, why did the Holy Court appear at that time?
Why did Archimedes' body suddenly change, and the king's attitude of being secretive when dealing with Archimedes' affairs......
Everything is intriguing, and it is all related to demons, which makes Sakura Wind really uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, Sakura's head gradually became a little uncomfortable, and even his vision blurred for a moment.
Sakura Feng hurriedly reached out and pinched his head, sweat oozing from his forehead. She felt that her memory was a little blurry, so she quickly picked up a notebook that had been spilled on the ground nearby and read the contents carefully.
The notes were written by Sakura Feng herself, and they wrote everything related to this incident in detail, whether it was what happened when she and Roland went to Castlevania to find Rand, or what happened after returning to Two Moon City, all of them were recorded in great detail.
Sakura Feng read the above content carefully, and his memory finally became a little clearer again. But her head was a little swollen, which made her feel quite uncomfortable.
In fact, Sakura didn't have the habit of keeping a diary before, but after that incident, somehow, one day she suddenly found that her memory was gradually declining. Of course, it's not quite right to say this, but it should be accurate to say that only the part of the memory related to that incident is irreversibly slowly forgotten, as if there is a force secretly driving it, wanting Sakura to slowly forget all this. And this is obviously abnormal, and the more you think about it, the more strange it feels.
So after discovering this, in order to keep this part of his memory from being taken away, Sakura quickly wrote it all down while he still remembered. In this case, once the memory becomes blurred, Sakura will quickly flip through his previous notes and try to remember all this.
However, this also further confirms Sakura's previous conclusion: there are really other strange things about this matter! Otherwise, how could anyone want to forget all this? So this strengthened Sakura's desire to track it down, and she stayed in the Holy Dao Temple almost day and night, looking through those scarce historical materials day and night, trying to see if there had been a similar situation in the previous history.
In fact, Sakura has also realized that something terrible seems to be happening on the mainland.
Demons invade human territory on a large scale, the dragon knights who almost never appear appear in person, and more and more frequent geological disasters and abnormal hydrological fluctuations...... All of this all means that somewhere in the world is beginning to crumble, and order is continuing to crumble. Sakura wants to know the answer, and she wants to unravel the truth of the tragedy, even if it's most likely not what she wants.
At this time, Noah and Natsuzo had already walked up the spiraling stairs and appeared in front of Sakura.
Sakura didn't seem surprised by the appearance of the two, but said lightly: "It's the two of you, what's the matter with me?"
"It's not a big deal, it's just that there are some things I haven't been able to figure out, so I wanted to ask you. Noah smiled softly and spoke.
Sakura picked up the notebook on the ground, dusted it off, stood up and said, "You ask, although I don't think I know anything that even you, the prime minister, don't know." ”
"Then I'll ask directly: Where did you do something on the day the demon invaded Twin Moon City?" Noah looked at Sakura's eyes, although his tone was very gentle, but as soon as the words came out, Sakura suddenly felt a sense of oppression.
Sakura's eyes suddenly flickered, and she subconsciously held the note in her arms and said, "The situation that day was so chaotic that I can't remember exactly what I did...... But for the most part, I do the same thing as you, to defend against demons and protect the inhabitants of the city. ”
Although the relationship between Sakura and the King is still tense, Sakura still chooses to hide that he has been to Castlevania. Because Sakura knew very well in his heart that if others knew that the king had been to the demon's territory, it would inevitably cause a lot of gossip and vicious speculation. So even if it's for the Moon Country, she will definitely not let the king and the demon get involved easily, even if it's a little possibility!
Noah looked at Sakura's slightly trembling shoulders, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He knew that Sakura didn't tell the truth to himself, and that just confirmed his suspicions.
However, Noah didn't show a trace of emotion, and didn't ask if what Sakura Feng just said was true, but said with a pleasant face as usual: "I see, I understand." ”
"Do you have anything else to do? Sakura said lightly, wanting to end the conversation between the two sides as soon as possible. She worries that she will be wrong, especially in front of Noah, a meticulous observer.
Although Noah didn't say anything just now, his sentence "I understand." Sakura heard some off-string sounds, which made her heart beat a lot faster: Did he already know something?
Thinking of this, Sakura's nervous heart suddenly became a lot calmer. She asked with a little hesitation, "Noah, ...... Do you know how Archimedes died?"
"He was a monster, and after his identity was revealed, he became angry and was intercepted and killed by the dragon knights of the Holy Court. ”
"You know, that's not the answer I wanted. Sakura raised her head, her eyes became firm, she stared straight into Noah's eyes, and said, "That's just the official announcement, and what I want to know is the specific details." Why did Archimedes not hesitate to reveal his identity and dig out the demon's stump?"
