hiss--
Char looked at the words that appeared on the book.
Instantly, he took a breath of cold air.
"Knight King"——Isadela von Fresberg.
To be more precise, this name originally belonged to the second princess of the empire.
The moment this name appeared, Xia finally understood the origins of the many coincidences in the remnants of previous history.
Why did I have an inexplicable sense of déjà vu the moment I saw the Knight King?
Also, why was the other person clearly a man, but had a face as beautiful as that of a young girl, with eyebrows and eyes so similar to those of the second princess that he almost made a mistake several times.
Even during several close contacts, he had the illusion of "Brother, you smell so good" from time to time, so much so that Char almost began to question his own sexual orientation. That's why after leaving the remnants of history, he was impatient to find Xiao Ai for confirmation.
...
...
Originally, he thought that those coincidences and sense of déjà vu were due to the blood relationship between the Knight King and Isadella.
After all, they are ancestors and descendants, so it is reasonable that they have some similarities in appearance and even some kind of inheritance from previous generations.
But now it seems that this is not some bullshit reason like intergenerational inheritance or atavism...
Instead, it was completely me who logged in to play for others.
Two familiar faces in the present world, both wearing brand new vests, performed a good show in another time and space a thousand years ago.
The key point is that Char really only regarded everything in the remnants of history as a play. Now that the show is over, he ran away.
But, it seems.
Some people took it seriously.
"But……"
"Why did she appear in Esgania a thousand years ago, as the Knight King?"
Char's mumbling voice had just begun to rise.
The next moment, Sylvia's light golden handwriting slowly appeared in the void.
She also saw the information described in the book.
"Ms. Isadella... is the second princess whom I met at the Borgia family dinner and at Brother Char's house."
"If that's the case, then it's not hard to understand."
"It's because of the holy sword she contracted."
The witch lady's gaze was far-reaching, and a pale silver light flickered unsteadily in her beautiful eyes.
"Legends can feel the flow of time, while thrones can interfere with the history they occupy to a certain extent."
"And that holy sword was born when the stars first opened..."
"The history it has gone through since its birth spans several ancient eras. The immense mysteries it contains have long surpassed the scope of an ordinary throne."
"It was with the help of that holy sword that the princess was able to resist the force of historical revision and go against the tide, violating the original trend of history and forcibly tampering with a section of history."
Sylvia's eyes became somewhat distant.
With the status of a throne-level beastmaster, although she herself is not ancient enough, she already has the ability to stand in time and look back on the past.
At this moment, she clearly saw a golden sword that was so brilliant that it was beyond words from the upstream of history.
The holy sword was inserted straight into the long river of history, standing still, forcibly rewriting the original course of history and cutting off a brand new era.
This is a great feat of fighting against the entire historical trend with one's own strength.
"So... the hundred-year bloody battle between the Holy See and the Sword of the Empire..."
Char felt a little numb and spoke slowly.
"Yes, that's probably why."
Sylvia nodded.
"Rewriting the past like this, going against the general trend, will inevitably leave traces in the long river of time and space."
"For the extraordinary people below the legend level, they will know nothing... They will only take this tampered history for granted and take it for granted that everything that happened was natural and reasonable."
"Ordinary legends can sense something, and realize that past history has shifted, but it's only a vague perception, not very clear."
"Only those who have stepped into the Throne Realm... or those who have personally participated like you, Brother Char, or those who have relied on the protection of the Holy Spear like Xiao Ai, can clearly know everything that happened and retain the memories before history was rewritten."
The Holy Sword is of equal status to the Holy Lance, and also possesses abilities that are independent of time and space.
"There must be a strong person in the Holy Court of the Holy Kingdom who has surpassed the throne and knows everything. That's why they launched the holy war just now, hoping to correct the wrong history."
"It's just a pity that the Holy See must have failed."
"That is to say, Char had provoked a new girl a thousand years ago... Her Highness Isadela?"
Aurora's words sounded cold.
According to Char, she is a reckless husband, oh no, a reckless wife... She doesn't really listen to discussions about overlapping timelines, right and wrong history, and she is not interested in them.
After all, he was the sharp sword beside Char. All he had to do was to trust the young man unconditionally and complete his orders at all costs.
Therefore, in Sylvia's explanation, Aurora only grasped the only point that she cared about.
That was exactly what she expected...Char's passive ability of the Space-Time Sea King was triggered again.
Moreover, it was Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Unexpectedly, it doesn't seem that unexpected. Why?
"If it's Char-nii-san... it seems like it's true, it's not that surprising."
A hint of helplessness also flashed across Sylvia's beautiful eyes.
Well, maybe this is a boomerang.
She herself was the one who was redeemed by Char, and was also the first person to eat the peach.
But at this moment, the boomerang finally landed on her, and it was her turn to watch her lover messing with other girls.
Around the Blue Silver Witch, the frozen dusk began to surge once again.
An illusory river of time slowly emerged in the dusk.
As for Char, he just stared quietly at the countless illusory scenes flowing in the illusory river.
That was the former Esgania, which is now the Foresta Empire, or the Red Empire.
…
He saw that Vortigern and the monsters of the abyss were driven out of the entire territory of Esgania, and the flags of the Knight King were planted all over the land that was once full of disasters.
He saw the day when the sacred calendar was born, the old era ended, and the new era began.
The heavy rain stopped and the sun's grace shone through the gaps in the dark clouds.
Huge chalk stones were transported from all directions, and a pure white new royal city was built bit by bit on the originally decayed and dilapidated capital of Esgania.
The Holy City - Camelot.
He saw the day when Camelot was completed and a new country was founded.
Millions of people and soldiers were cheering and celebrating, welcoming the arrival of a great era and an immortal dynasty.
On the throne, the figure of the girl holding the golden sword is more glorious than ever.
Every guest who witnessed the back of this ever-victorious king was extremely confident in the prosperous future of this new empire.
However, no one noticed that on this day when knights, soldiers, and civilians were all laughing and drinking...
Only the girl on the throne, her delicate face shrouded in the shadow of the holy sword, did not reveal a smile.
…
The images in the long river of illusory time began to accelerate continuously.
Just like what every powerful nation will experience...
From its initial budding, a new and vibrant country was born.
Then we will make steady progress and build an unprecedented era of prosperity.
Then, it peaked and then declined.
Gradually, those Knights of the Round Table who were born in the last era and who once followed the Knight King in his battles have also grown old.
"Your grandfather once saw His Majesty Cain."
This was Gawain's favorite way of bragging to his descendants, making them doubtful.
At this time, the story about Cain and Xiao has become a vague legend.
Mixed with the stories of brave young men slaying dragons told by bards, it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood. The picture is still speeding up.
The seats for the elderly at the round table were reduced one by one.
The Knights of the Round Table are at least at the title level, and there are also many legends... However, human legends also have a limit to their lifespan, and two to three hundred years is already the limit.
Only on the throne, the appearance of the silver-haired queen has never changed in the slightest.
The existence of the holy sword and its immense mystery seemed to have frozen her age, allowing her to always maintain her youngest girlish appearance.
Later, the heyday came to an end.
The prosperity fades away and the noise fades away.
Only the slender figure between the thrones remained, becoming increasingly lonely.
The humanity in her eyes was gradually fading, leaving only the divine light that continued to shine, and the vermilion red moon was looming behind the throne.
The Queen began to ignore state affairs and handed over the authority of the empire to the descendants of the Round Table and the Oathed Families... and she herself stayed all day and all night in a magnificent building opposite the palace that was almost level with the imperial palace.
Valhalla.
Then, he looked at the thin stone statue with the words "Black Knight Cain" inscribed on it at the very front of Valhalla, and was lost in thought for several days.
There are naturally many loyal people among the descendants of the Round Table and the Oath Family, but human hearts are always fickle.
What's more, the Knight King's current behavior of ignoring state affairs is simply inviting those usurpers with ulterior motives.
As a result, the empire's reputation in the Western Continent began to plummet.
The title "Knight King" that was originally used by the outside world to praise the "master of the eight virtues of chivalry" and "the most perfect knight and king" is gradually no longer used, and is replaced by the relatively neutral term "Crimson Queen".
However, the empire's only king paid no attention to the rumors from the outside world.
Except for a sword fight with the saint who came from the Holy See during the Hundred Years of Bloody War, she just stood in Valhalla for most of the rest of the time.
The time was getting longer and longer, and she was getting further and further away from the world.
Until today.
…
The long, illusory river stagnated.
"If this continues... Isadella, what will happen to her?"
Char spoke softly.
"It will disappear."
As if she had anticipated Char's question, Sylvia's ethereal voice slowly sounded in the ocean of his mind.
"Ordinary historical revisions will only force travelers who do not belong to this time and space to be forcibly expelled to their original time and space."
"But the Second Princess is different... She stayed in that time and space for too long, and she has changed a lot."
"The holy sword born at the beginning of the creation of the stars is powerful, but it can never compete with the long river of time that has continued from ancient times to the present day."
"The longer she stays, the greater the accumulated historical revision power becomes. Today, it is no longer a matter of expulsion or repatriation, but destruction."
"If we delay any longer, once the protection of the holy sword is broken..."
"Then the backlash of the correction force that has accumulated for nearly a thousand years will be enough to completely wipe out all traces of the existence of a throne in the entire river of time."
Sylvia's words were calm, but the meaning they conveyed was clearly extremely heavy.
It's not just a simple death. If it were a simple death, at least others would still remember it.
Instead, it directly erases all traces and marks of existence from time and history.
Except for the strongest ones who can travel through the long river of time, no one will remember her name, and everything she has done will be erased or replaced by others under the influence of the force of history correction.
"If Your Highness chooses to give up now, there is still a chance to return to the correct history with the protection of the holy sword."
"But……"
The Blue Silver Witch had not yet finished her words, but her meaning was self-evident.
She had also buried herself for five hundred years...so she knew Isadella's current situation very well.
A long time can change a lot of things.
Whether it is original intention, dream, or human nature.
Sylvia sealed herself in the White Tower and had no contact with the outside world for five hundred years. But even so, Sylvia had tried her best to maintain her humanity and prevent it from being infected and corrupted.
What's more, the other party has existed for a full thousand years and has been walking in the world during these thousand years.
The original life of the second princess Isadella lasted only more than twenty years... Compared with the thousand years, it was just a drop in the ocean.
Today, the queen is completely different from the princess who ate hot pot with them at Char's house that day. Divinity has crushed humanity and taken the dominant position.
At this moment, the other party's existence is closer to that of a god than a human being.
A god walking above the mortal world.
In this situation, even if Xia revealed Cain's alias, it might not be able to save anything.
Because the original intention of the princess had already deteriorated, turning into twisted obsession and divinity...
No one can tell how much weight the emotions we had as mortals still hold in the other person's heart.
Listening to Sylvia's words, Xia couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
The next moment.
He saw in his mind, a blue light curtain quietly spreading out.
[You have obtained a new negative historical legend degree - "Troublemaker"]
[Historical Legends - Troublemaker]
[Rarity: Gold]
[Owner: Xia Egut]
[Location: Esgania/Forrestal Empire]
[As the saying goes, beauty is a disaster. A beauty that overturns a country can overthrow an entire powerful dynasty.]
[And now, you have proved with your own personal experience that who says men are inferior to women? Men can also become the cause of trouble and rewrite the fate of an ancient country. 】
[In today's era, you have been engraved in every history textbook of the countries in the Western Continent. The deeds passed down by Cain have been studied and pondered over and over again by archaeologists and scholars of every dynasty. 】
[They said: Cain should be viewed dialectically. As a hero who saves the world, his achievements are indelible. But on the other hand, we can't over-deify him. Although it was not his own idea, if it weren't for Cain's existence, perhaps the Knight King would have calmly let go and faced death, and the current empire would not have developed to such an extreme point... Overall, the merits and demerits are 70:30. 】
[No matter what, the fate of Esgania and the Foresta Empire has changed because of your efforts and struggles...]
[Even so, the change in the country's destiny is not what you expected. 】
…
[Since you have obtained both the positive and negative historical legends of "The Troublemaker" and "The Watcher" of gold quality, you have achieved part of the mission objectives.]
[Rewards for this part of the task have been issued]
[Quest reward: 200 pieces of Sand of Time.] 】
In an instant, Char felt hundreds of clear and dreamy stars rising up in his spiritual world.
It is like a dream, just like a vast galaxy of stars.
He felt that under the influence of the sand at that time, his mental power made a loud bang.
The barriers between the fifth and sixth ring roads were breached.
In an instant, he saw his sixth soul contract condense into shape, which also meant that from today on, he truly entered the title level realm.
This is a strong man who can keep his own name forever and is only one step away from becoming a legend.
That legendary road would hinder many title-level powerhouses, but for Xia Ya, there is no obstacle. He has already walked out of his own legendary road and left his mark in the past history.
Legend, and even the chasm of the throne, will not bother him for long.
If it were a few days ago, Char, who had finally broken through the sixth ring and received such a generous reward, would probably have been overjoyed.
Maybe I'll have to ask Xiao Ai for a reward like "Special Commemorative Knee Pillow for Breaking Through the Six Rings".
only.
At this moment, I recall everything in Sylvia's materialized river of illusion.
However, Xia Ya found that the joy of advancement didn't seem so enjoyable anymore.
