The conversation in the gazebo continued.

Macdonald asked: "So, do you think the ancient human-devil war really happened?"

Aldridge confirmed: "Yes, we believe this war happened for real."

He stood up and came to the edge of the pavilion, stroking his long beard while looking at the nearby lake.

"Originally, I was fearless about whether this myth was true, but an unexpected discovery four years ago made me cautious."

"Your accidental discovery?"

"Yes." Aldridge turned around, and his eyes revealed a mixture of perseverance, compassion, and indomitable momentum. Combined with his status as the chief scholar of the Bachelor's Tower, Macdonald immediately felt awe.

The old scholar took out the parchment from his pocket, slowly unfolded it, and carefully placed it on the stone table.

MacDonald looked at the parchment, and saw a shooting star pattern drawn on it, surrounded by some strange symbols, or it might be a kind of characters he didn't know.

"What is this? Meteor?"

"It's a shooting star, but it's not an ordinary shooting star, or... we should call it [Disaster Star]."

"The Disaster Star?"

Listening to the name is not a good thing.

Aldrich's eyes showed reminiscence, he said: "This was found in an ancient mausoleum of Zorf, I was only in my early twenties, a young man who had just entered the scholar's tower. "

MacDonald said, "Zorff? I seem to have heard of it. This seems to be somewhere in the Empire."

"Yes, but there used to be a dead ancient civilization in Zorf, and the things on this scroll were copied from the walls of a certain mausoleum. In fact, there are many other contents, but they are all things that ordinary people cannot understand. The text can be read directly, so I only showed you the pattern of this meteor."

"My mentor at the time, Lord Ortega, took over the task of deciphering this ancient text. In addition to the text on the wall, there are also a large number of ancient vellum scrolls in the tomb. As his student, I was also fortunate to participate in the this work."

"As the research progressed, we gradually understood what the words and pictures on the tomb walls were trying to express."

"The general meaning is that meteors of this shape and color are a sign of disaster. Once they appear in the night sky, there will be terrible natural and man-made disasters within a hundred years."

"And in those ancient scrolls, it recorded the specific circumstances of a disaster personally experienced by Zolph's civilization."

"The information left by Zolph's ancient civilization is not complete. Based on my mentor's experience, he felt that there were missing parts, just like a few pieces of a beautiful painting were missing. But in the process of research, my mentor He died of illness, and I inherited his last wish—to find out the true face of this kind of meteor, and continue to study the materials left by Zolph's ancient civilization to complete the final puzzle."

"At that time, I actually didn't pay much attention to meteors in my heart. I just took it as a research topic when I started my bachelor's career independently. After all, which civilization doesn't have one or two prophecies about disaster or doomsday, and the mausoleum It’s a place that likes to play tricks, there are too many similar things.”

"But because of my mentor's last wish, I still set out to collect information about this type of meteor, trying to restore the incomplete puzzle."

"It was during this process that I came into contact with magic and wizards. Oh, just like people's impressions of them, wizards are always associated with words like [ancient] and [mysterious], and I did come from They have obtained many precious historical materials that are not found in the official history of various countries."

"I have formed a deep friendship with one of the wizards, Siko Hewynte. Hewynte is the leader of a wizard group known as the [Mysterious Society]. The wizarding family, and the wizarding group of the Secret Law Society was originally established around the Hewynt family, and almost all the leaders of the past generations came from this family."

At this time, Aldridge, who had been keeping a serious expression, showed a slight smile, looked at Macdonald and said, "Besides the wizard and the leader of the Arcane Society, Siko Hewynt has another identity, you know what it is?" ?"

Macdonald turned his head, and he thought of what he asked Aldridge just now—"Demons, humans, His Highness Antonio, and His Highness's witch mother, are there any connections between these?"

"Let me guess, this Huynter is related to His Highness Antonio and His Highness's mother?"

"Correct!" Aldridge nodded and said, "Sico Shouint is the grandfather of His Royal Highness Antonio."

"I see." Macdonald understood clearly.

"Our Majesty, the current emperor of the empire, Bartley Griffin, was still my student at the time, and Siko Hewynt had a daughter, Sloena Hwynt. This couple is about the same age, and because of the teacher and Because of my father, I often come and go, and the relationship between a man and a woman arises when I come and go."

"It's a pity that Bartley had to marry the daughter of the Dias family as his main wife due to political reasons, and Huynter's daughter Slona could only marry him as a concubine."

Aldridge shook his head and said regretfully.

At this time MacDonald asked: "Our Majesty, do you know that the woman you love is a witch?"

"As far as I know, I probably don't know. Siko and Slona both hide very well, and have never shown the slightest trace in front of Bartley, especially Slona~lightnovelpub.net~ She is afraid of her own Being a witch...would make Bartley feel bad."

Macdonald asked: "That is to say, the statement that His Highness is the son of a witch is probably... a rumor fabricated by someone with a heart, but this rumor is correct and in line with the facts?"

"I think so." Aldridge nodded, agreeing with his statement.

That must be the Queen and the Dias family behind her, MacDonald thought to himself, His Royal Highness Antonio's mother also died in an unknown way, and many people speculated that it was due to a court conspiracy.

"The grandfather of His Highness is now..."

"Siko Shouint was killed by the Holy See... Alas, their father and daughter..."

The expression on Aldrich's face was extremely painful. At that moment, he thought of the voices and appearances of his old friend Siko and Slona who he regarded as his niece.

He knew that it was the successive deaths of the father and daughter of Huyinte due to unnatural reasons, which stimulated the secret law association that had always followed the principle of "avoiding the world". more and more aggressive.
