Chapter 257 The Heart of Ygdelsilu (Part 2)
Ymir laughed: "Haha, because this was decided hundreds of years ago!"
Ymir glanced at Rocky who was extremely shocked: "Rocky, don't be so unbelievable, what I said is true."
"Lord Ymir!" Menia gave Ymir a look to signal him not to say those unnecessary words.
Ymir shrugged: "Lord Richard asked, and if Rocky knows these things, then it's too pitiful!"
Ymir's lips were close to Rocky's face, and he said something that denied the meaning of Rocky's stubborn survival so far. Ymir looked down at Rocky with a haughty look: "The heart of Yugdelsilu was brought from the God Realm to the Demon Realm by a goddess in the past, and that goddess gave this secret treasure to you. That goddess is..." Rocky
's eyes widened, and he had guessed the horrible answer. Ymir enjoyed Rocky's expression very much, laughed a few times, and said the answer: "That goddess is Simora!"
"Bullshit! You are lying! Don't try to shake me!"
"Simora is a goddess?!" Diluka asked in a low voice approaching Richard.
Richard shook his head: "I don't know either, just keep listening."
Freya on the side said: "If Simora is a goddess, then Loki is..."
Ymir snapped his fingers: "That's right! It's the half-blood child born of the goddess Simora and the demon royal family Faruba! The two were married after the Midnight War for the sake of the exhausted empire and Yggdalsilu."
"Political marriage?"
"It was like this at the beginning, but I didn't expect Simora and Faruba to truly love each other! And Simora took away Yggdalsilu's heart!"
"Will Lord Odin allow this?"
"Of course not, so the two parties that had just ceased fighting started fighting again, and the Demon King Thrud and the Supreme God Odin had a shocking battle. In the end, the two men fought to a draw, each suffered serious injuries, and lost their leaders twice, so the matter came to nothing. Later, Yggdril completely blocked the news. The demons originally wanted to publicize it, but they didn't expect that Simora was pregnant. According to the rules of succession to the throne, the child has the noble blood of the royal family of Faruba, and has the right of inheritance. But how can the demons let a child born by a goddess inherit the throne? This is impossible, don't you think? Rocky?"
"Impossible, impossible..." Rocky shook his head and repeated the word over and over again.
Menia looked at Loki with a look full of mockery. It was ridiculous that the poor man, who didn't even know his own origins, was always dissatisfied with his situation and longed for revenge.
Imir ignored his brother who was going crazy and continued: "Although the war between the two sides was caused by the secret treasure, it did not affect their marriage. At first, the two were worried about the interference of the demons and the revenge of Odin. Later, Sruder spoke up, and those who knew the situation shut up. Simora lived in the empire as a demon. As for Odin, I heard that Odin had an accident, so there was no movement. The two lived like this."
Imir Mir suddenly thought of something and laughed, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you something. The first child born by Simora died young, which is also a secret. I looked for a long time before I found it."
Rocky closed his eyes. He knew this. When he was young, Rocky had seen a photo hidden in the innermost part. There was a photo of his parents on it. In the photo, Simora was holding a child. The child was not him. He asked his mother, and it was his brother who died soon after he was born. Simora once told him that at first the two of them thought that the child's early death was caused by the mismatch of divine power and magic. After hundreds of years of research, they finally confirmed that it was just an accident. The two of them had another child, and this child was Rocky.
Rocky opened his eyes: "You just said that Slud had spoken, why did my parents still leave me?"
Menia said: "Of course your parents became an obstacle. In recent years, the demons have been preparing to attack Ygdelsil. For unknown reasons, His Highness Faruba decided to take Simora and you and escape. But the news leaked. The Demon King Slud personally attacked, and Faruba and Simora were killed directly."
"You said killed!" Rocky stared at Ymir with wide eyes, "You dare to say just now that it was my mother's credit that I could become a candidate."
Menia covered her mouth and looked at Ymir embarrassedly, "It seems that I have let it slip?"
Ymir shrugged.
"Are you disturbing me? My mother..." Rocky knelt on the ground. What Imir said before was right. Simora had been imprisoned for so many years, why didn't Rocky have a chance to visit her? Menea's words told him the answer, because Simora had been killed long ago! The mystery was solved.
"Do you know why you were forgiven when you were young?" Menia looked down at Rocky with contempt. Rocky looked at her stubbornly with tears in his eyes. Menia smiled amusedly and continued, "That's because I heard that before Sinmora died, she entrusted you with the heart of Yugdelsilu that she brought to the empire. But it was not found during the house search, so the top management inferred that it was in your possession. Because the top management was worried that using force against you might cause them to lose the key to Yugdelsilu forever, the top management decided to wait and see, and you just took your life."
"Haha, haha, is that so."
Rocky covered his face with his hands. He cried bitterly, hoping that all this was a lie. His mother, Simora, was no longer in the world. He was born of a demon and a goddess, and he would not be recognized in the empire that was ruled by blood! Even if he became a demon king, it would still be the same. Moreover, Rocky didn't know what Richard's attitude was now. Everything happened so suddenly that it easily broke Rocky's heart.
Ymir held the key between his two fingers. "It is said that the Heart of Yggdelsilu is the secret treasure that created the great power of this continent. It is also said that Odin became the absolute god with this key, and His Majesty the Demon King is also pursuing this power. But no matter how you look at it, the secret treasure entrusted to you by His Highness Simora is like a toy, without any power at all. Fortunately, I have read many ancient books of the Empire and know that the Heart of Yggdelsilu must go through several steps to restore its original glory, and this battle for the throne is the stage set by the Demon King Srud to activate it."
Ymir clenched the key and looked at Rocky with a smile. That smile contained pity for Rocky...
