Above the gray fog, inside a palace like a giant's dwelling.
The "Moon" Emlyn seriously considered which part of the Blood's history to tell "The Fool".
He and the Ancestor were old friends, so he must know the events before the Cataclysm well; there's no need for me to repeat... In the Fourth and Fifth Epochs, the glory of the Blood was not rare; there is much worthy history, but only one point is most critical... Emlyn quickly had an idea.
In his current understanding, "The Fool" is probably an ancient god from before the Cataclysm who, for some reason, did not fall, but slept until now and is gradually awakening.
This well explained why, in the millennia-long recorded history of the Blood, no similar hidden existence had ever appeared until His honorific name suddenly spread.
After some deliberation, Emlyn straightened up and said:
"After the Cataclysm, the Blood left the central stage of history on the Southern and Northern Continents, becoming nobles of various empires and dynasties as individuals rather than as a clan, either governing a territory or guarding a castle in a key region.
"When our queen, the 'Blood Moon Queen' Ornia who led us out of the dark times, became the wife of the Night Emperor of the
"In that era, Queen Ornia was the embodiment of beauty. If there existed a magic mirror that could answer questions, the answer to 'Who is the most beautiful woman in the world?' could only be her..."
Emlyn became more and more proud and proud, transitioning from cautious restraint to a gushing torrent of words.
A magic mirror that answers questions, that's
After talking a bunch, Emlyn's expression turned serious:
"All this perished in the 'War of the Four Emperors'. The Night Emperor fell, the queen fell, and the Blood suffered a heavy blow. After seizing the final fruits of victory, the Seven
About as I expected... The Seven Gods, during the War of the Four Emperors, they were already the Seven Gods... Klein thought of the statues of six gods in the underground ruins of the Tudor family.
"Fortunately, at that time, the Seven Gods were divided, the four kingdoms attacked each other, and we, after paying a certain price, finally escaped the disaster." At this moment, Emlyn was unusually spirited.
He looked at Klein with shining eyes and said:
"Respected Mr. 'Fool', do you have time to listen to the life story of the 'Blood Moon Queen' and the glory that the Blood once possessed? That is a heavy book composed of pages of brilliant chapters, and I can repeat every part of it."
Looks like you can talk for a day and a night... I once thought you were the shame of the Blood because of your love for puppets and didn't think you'd know history so well, but unexpectedly you are so professional and academic... No wonder you always thought the Blood were noble and took pride in it... This kind of stay-at-home guy, if he really becomes interested in a field, he does deep research, and a vampire's life is long enough... Klein considered and prepared to politely refuse Emlyn's offer.
Although he wasn't lacking interest in those histories, time did not permit him to listen to a lengthy discourse here.
"That's enough." Klein smiled slightly. "I like equivalent exchange. I won't let you narrate without reward. When the opportunity arises, you can use corresponding history to exchange for things you want from me."
"...Alright." For a moment, Emlyn felt a little disappointed.
This was his first chance to tell others about the glory of the Blood.
Usually, to hide his identity, he couldn't boast about these things to humans, and within the Blood, those who needed to know already knew, and it wasn't his responsibility to educate the new generation.
Klein said no more, returning to his lofty attitude:
"Alright, go back."
Before
After a brief dizziness, he found himself still sitting in the moving hired carriage.
Then, he saw a piece of illusory parchment and gained knowledge of how to use a mystic ritual to ask for help from "The Fool".
When I get free at noon and go home, I'll immediately hold the ritual to ask Mr. "Fool" to remove my psychological suggestion... Emlyn suddenly got a bit excited.
Only when the carriage arrived at Harvest Church did he calm down, paid the fare.
Entering the church, he saw Father Uthravsky preaching to the few believers, and no longer felt the usual annoyance; his heart was quite relaxed.
In such a state, he inexplicably thought of some things:
Father Uthravsky never seemed to have stopped me from finding a way to remove the psychological suggestion... What is he thinking about after all?...
...
East Borough, in an oily coffee shop.
Arriving at the appointed time, Klein dined on oatmeal bread dipped in the soup of braised lamb with young peas, while listening to
Unfortunately, there was nothing of great value.
When the other finished, Klein thought for a moment, then pulled out banknotes totalling two pounds and pushed them over.
"You already gave it a moment ago!" Old Kohler was startled, waving his hand in surprise.
Klein chuckled:
"I'll be going south for a holiday this week. After a hard year, it's time to take a break.
"I might be away for two or three weeks, so I'm paying you in advance. Heh heh, don't forget to gather news for me."
