Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 480: Pioneers and Landkeepers (3/3)

—Not all prayers are answered.

Aphrina Ellen. The Emperor of the Setar Empire, the beloved little daughter of the keeper Axel, the current Marquis of Ellen, and his brother, Mikael Setar, are sitting at the front of the hall. at the table.

Both of them were silent. The graceful and luxurious blond woman was wearing a lavender silk gown with fluffy white velvet trim. A portrait, and aphorisms.

The person in the painting is a young climber, wearing armor and cloak, leading a group of knights up the mountain, with long golden hair blowing in the wind, smiling, holding a long sword and pointing mountain top.

This young climber's armor and long sword are quite simple, but there is a peculiar 'U'-shaped mark on his forehead, which is shining like a star, and like a bird struggling to spread its wings The appearance of wings.

Afurina also had such a mark when she was born, but it faded away soon afterwards, which prevented her from becoming a real princess and princess. Although she was loved by her father, she did not get the mark of the royal family of Setar Inheritance, remains one of the many regrets in her life.

She stared at the scroll, and the person on it was exactly what Axel Setar looked like when he led a team to climb the Karan Mountains when he was young.

At that time, he didn't have much fame, and his grandfather didn't die in the rebellion started by his uncle. At that time, my father often had a smile on his face. Although he was not taken seriously, he still had his own foundation and like-minded companions.

At that time, my father often said this sentence.

【Not all prayers will be answered. 】

【Afurina, my daughter, I prayed countless times to many great beings before you were born, hoping that you would inherit my bloodline... Unfortunately, you did not. But this doesn’t mean anything, it doesn’t mean that my love for you will be inferior to other brothers and sisters]

Thinking about this, the lady shook her head wearily. She didn't say anything, but the luminous bird at the side noticed this: [What's wrong, little girl, are you tired? 】

[Or, seeing things and thinking about others, remembering what our father looked like back then? 】

"Let me give you a suggestion, second brother, don't really treat me like a little girl, my son is older than your daughter."

Looking sideways at the luminous bird's heart light body, Mrs. Ellen sat up straight, her bright sapphire-like eyes dimmed a little: "Of course, you guessed right. I just thought. I mean. Father What are you thinking?"

【What you don't understand】

The luminous bird said indifferently: 【You are not an empress, how can you understand what an emperor is thinking? 】

"Come on." The lady shook her head impatiently: "It's another set of rhetoric—then what should we do? Do nothing? Hmm? Does a smart person who wants to be an emperor have an answer?"

[I just think I am more suitable than big brothers and big sisters]

Shimmer Bird said seriously: [And I'm not joking, little girl, back then, whether it was father, uncle, second uncle or other uncles and aunts, they all tried to understand what grandpa wanted to do... Guess what? 】

【They all guessed wrong and all died】

[As far as our father...he didn't guess anything, he just guarded the east border steadfastly, ignoring any invitations and gossip. So he won]

"...at least this, I can't deny it."

Ms. Ellen nodded slightly, and she laughed at herself, which was almost exactly the same as Isengarde's self-deprecating smile: "We laughed at these elders back then, how could we be so crazy to guess Grandpa's purpose? Grandpa is The great emperor who surpassed the times by more than one step is a pioneer who even history books, nobles, scholars, and even ordinary people can't understand...how are they worthy of guessing Grandpa's actions?"

"But... now I understand. Every decision Grandpa makes is closely related to them as the royal family. They have to guess... just like what my father wants to do to us is closely related to us .”

The luminous bird was silent for a while, and then slowly said: [The ignorant people always say that the grandfather is a tyrant, and the intelligent scholars secretly scold us for polluting the reputation of the emperor...but they don't know, because the grandfather was Call it a tyrant, the many reforms and laws he left behind... can be inherited]

[Father has always respected his grandfather, and his grandfather asked his father to guard the Eastern Territory in case of emergency to support the imperial capital. He did so and left immediately after learning the news, but it was still a step too late]

[Grandfather actually expected the Dark Moon turmoil to happen long ago, but he didn't expect that it was uncle and grandmother who would take action...even such a wise grandfather didn't expect it]

[It can only be said that he is still a human being in the final analysis, not a sage who descended from the sky in some myths and legends]

"So, are we the uncle of the past, or the father of the past?"

Regarding the emotion of the second prince, Mrs. Ellen lowered her eyes. Her appearance and smile can be regarded as works of art. It only needs to be frozen for a moment to be painted by a painter, and it can be passed down for hundreds of years.

But at this moment, her expression looked desolate and even more melancholy: "Then what can we hold on to? According to my father's instructions, we will raise Yisen up and become his eternal body? Huh? Brother, my lovely The same goes for niece Lydia."

[It's not sure yet, that's what my father thinks]

The shimmering bird replied calmly: [Reverberation, echo and mirror, these are all extremely evil techniques that my grandfather has severely criticized. Remember that year? All of us were summoned to the tower of the lonely mountain, where the furious grandfather ordered the fifth uncle to kneel down, and the first knight personally abolished his path to ascension...he died a year later]

[Father is not that stupid, even if he doesn't know why, he will never make the same mistakes again]

[Even if the grandfather is gone, the father will not take the road that was rejected by the grandfather]

"That's even more dangerous."

Mrs. Ellen stared at the file in front of her eyes: "Look, in the last fifteen years, all the experiments related to the imperial capital since Yisen was born...Father has been restarting grandfather's research in recent years! Even grandfather I didn’t get involved in too many fields back then!”

"He has also become more and more mysterious and elusive, to the point of... ignoring the government."

"If it is just to take away the body of the heir for eternal life, it will be easier to deal with. The question is, what does the father want to do?"

[At the very least, knowing that my father has been restarting my grandfather's research all these years is a reward]

The twilight bird stared at the handwriting and pictures on the file: [Little sister, do you know that once this news gets out, how many nobles and powerful people in the entire Setar Empire will be terrified and unable to sleep at night? ? 】

【How many of the nations will look at us with astonishment and defense? Recalling the genuine 'Central Empire' back then? 】

【Whether it is the Black Sun, the Black Tyrant, or the pioneer Inaiga the Great... this world cannot accommodate the second one. The soil guardian is already the limit]

Madam Ellen stared silently at the portrait of the emperor on the wall.

She sighed insignificantly: "Speaking of... Ian, is he the descendant of the Cehalolvo family who discovered the echo back then? Recently, many families other than us have also begun to pay attention to this Son, I was still wondering why, and then realized his true identity."

[Yes] The second prince's heart light body said slowly: [A very bright and potential child, Ba Dun gave me a full score. He said that it doesn't mean anything if it's just being smart and measured. What's really amazing is that this little guy is quite good at alchemy, inscriptions and sublimation skills. It's already great for ordinary people to be proficient in one of them, but he is proficient in all of them]

[It seems that the hidden background of the Ciehalorvo family for so many years has been consumed on this child. With this strength]

"Everything starts with them. I hope it ends with them."

Ms. Ellen looked at the time, then shook her head slightly: "It's no accident, Ethan has already picked him up. The children probably need to talk about some private topics. I probably won't be able to see you tonight. We'll talk about it tomorrow." .”

"Want to meet him with me?"

[Of course] The shimmering bird seemed to sense something, and then smiled softly: [I'm afraid you don't know, little girl, this young man just used a new type of regeneration potion to save an almost The victim of a car accident who was declared dead... His alchemy is probably only one step away from the master level]

[Even if you mind, I want to meet him]
