The Emperor's Daily Nitpicking

When his eyes swept across the completely unfamiliar stone roof, dozens of thick stone pillars, and the mottled carvings on them, he lowered his head and asked Kevin in surprise: "What is this place? I was disturbed by a dream just now." I was dizzy, and I didn't even realize... Where are we?"

"This is the underground of Old Rose Castle." Kevin replied, he also looked up at the dome that had returned to calm from the aftershock of the vibration, and guessed: "Something passed from outside."

The Old Rose Castle has been buried in the desert for a hundred years, and its strength has been greatly reduced, at least worse than Kevin thought.Movements on the ground can easily be transmitted to the underground palace through the rough stone ground of the ruins.

The rumbling movement just now seemed to be caused by a group of people passing by in a hurry.But to cause an underground vibration in a certain area, the movements of this group of people will not be small, and they seem to be very eager.

"Oh yes, we have arrived at the Old Rose Castle." Oswald stared at the dome vigilantly, waited for a while, and saw that there was no other movement from it, and then put down the paw that was covering Kevin's face, Moved the huge body of Sirius, let it aside.

Only then was Kevin freed from the pressure of Sirius. He sat up and exhaled twice, feeling relieved.

Oswald's gaze was still in the underground palace. He swept across the scattered people on the ground, his brows were tightly frowned, and the expression on the wolf's face was puzzled and serious: "I remember we met part of the advance army in the secret passage, They died, with weird expressions and postures. Then we came out of the dry well, arrived at Mirage, caught up with the first marching army, and rushed to the Old Rose Castle... and then what?"

He turned his head to look at Kevin, as if he was trying to remember, but he couldn't remember the missing piece in his memory: "I found that I lost a piece of memory. What did we meet after we arrived at the Old Rose Castle? Do you have an impression? I think I should have seen something, but I can’t remember what it is anyway, it’s about to come out but—"

He was taken aback when he said this.Because these few words sounded too familiar, not long ago, when they met the advance army led by Wood and Nick in front of the sand dunes, they heard the same words.

"Wait—so what Wood and the others saw in the secret passage is the same as what we saw at the ruins of Old Rose Castle?" Oswald was guessing, but his tone was almost firm, " Do you remember what Wood and the others said? They saw something, but they couldn't remember it when it came to their lips."

Kevin squeezed the space between his brows, said "um", and said in agreement, "It's about the same, it should be the same or something similar."

When he heard Wood's description at the foot of the hill, Kevin thought that it should be related to Melo. After all, no ordinary person can casually create this effect of erasing memory, unless witchcraft and drugs work together. superior.But he never thought that his godhead would come back one day, so he didn't think about the phoenix godhead at all.

And when he arrived at Old Rose Castle, the moment he saw the phoenix, he already understood what Wood and the others saw in the secret passage.

But if what Wood and the others see is a phoenix, then the problem arises——

Why did Mello arrange for them to see the phoenix?Why did some people die, but some people chased Rose Old Castle alive?

Moreover, since he has a way to let the phoenix walk around the secret passage, why not just force Kevin to regain his godhead in the secret passage, and insist on making a big detour to the Old Rose Castle?

Kevin sat there with his legs bent, his elbows loosely clamped on his knees, slowly rubbing the center of his brows, while lowering his eyes and thinking: Melofer made so much effort to bring him back to the god position here because What?Does the Chateau de la Rose have any special meaning to him?

Oswald on the side looked like he was thinking hard when he saw him answer vaguely, thinking that he was also trying to recall the missing part of his memory.He raised his furry paw and patted Kevin gently, saying, "Don't rub it, don't think about it if you don't remember it, actually I have a guess."

Kevin was taken aback, and looked up at him: "...What guess?"

"Do you still remember why we came to the Old Rose Castle?" Oswald said in a deep voice, "It is because the Priests said that they saw traces of Phae in the Old Rose Castle, and the one that Mowgli saw Do you remember the sub-scene? He said he saw Phaer standing by the broken wall of the tower of Old Rose Castle, holding a longbow in his hand, and a phoenix totem on the side of his neck."

Kevin laughed dryly: "Well, you remember it quite clearly, and then?"

"Mowgli and the others didn't mention the time when this scene appeared, and we seem to subconsciously regard him as something in the past, which has already appeared in the Old Rose Castle. But——what if it is not the past but the future? What if what Mowgli saw was actually some kind of prophecy?" He turned his head to stare at Kevin, his transparent eyes seemed very clear and clear: "You said, the memory that we have all been erased, will it be about Phae? When we arrive at the Old Rose Castle, when we land in front of the tower, will we see the God of Light, Phae?"

Kevin looked at him numbly, speechless.

"If you really saw a miracle, it's completely understandable if you lose your memory." Oswald said, "After all, it's not something ordinary people can see casually. Then we have a collective coma..."

He raised his eyes and glanced at the people piled up on the ground in the underground palace, and even seriously guessed: "If my thoughts just now are correct, then it is very likely that we were moved into this place by Phae. After all, who can Move so many people from the ground to the ground at once?"

Kevin: "..."

"What do you think?" Oswald finished the analysis, glanced at him, and asked in a deep voice.

"It's reasonable, well-founded, and logical, so that's about it." Kevin waved his hand, agreeing perfunctorily, and at the same time murmured in his heart: Young people really dare to think about it. up.

While Kevin was muttering, his eyes were still circling around the corners of the underground palace, trying to find some clues that he hadn't noticed before.

As a result, as soon as he took a second look, he felt a fluffy thing approaching his lower back and arched him suddenly.

Kevin was always ticklish, and his skin got goosebumps when he was hit by such an attack, his whole body shivered, and he turned around and said, "...What are you doing?"

As a result, Oswald raised his noble and handsome wolf head, leaned slightly to the right, and made a very arrogant look, and then a little squinted gaze leaked from the corner of his eye, looking at Kevin very dissatisfied .

Obviously, he was not very happy by Kevin's perfunctory answer just now. After all, His Majesty the Emperor boldly made such a series of very reliable associations and guesses.

Kevin only felt that there was a line of big characters clearly printed on his furry face——should you praise me?Is this basic courtesy?Did you take imperial power seriously? !

Kevin: "..."

Ever since some people tore through the window paper, there has been a posture of "don't even want to lose face".In the past, His Majesty the Emperor wanted to save face, and tried his best to make himself look calm, stable, deep and introverted, but now he doesn't know what's wrong, and he is rushing towards some weird route.

If you have to define it, it is probably because you can't completely lower your face and want to show your talent, so you get stuck between the proud Sirius and the peacock with its tail open.

Kevin stared at his face silently for a while, raised his hand and slapped him on the forehead, rubbed his hair twice, and praised sinisterly in a tone of "Are you two hundred and five": "You How can you be so smart, your intelligence is almost as high as that of a ten-year-old human child, promise me, let's play!"

Oswald: "..."

He snorted from his nasal cavity, staring at Kevin's every move with heavy eyes.Kevin didn't know what he saw at this time, and he was standing up and walking towards the corner of the wall. From Oswald's perspective, he could see a section of his fair neck under his dark hair, because he turned his head. Pull out the obvious outline of muscles and bones, thin and good-looking.

Oswald squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while, only to feel that the root of his teeth was itchy, and he wanted to rush forward to grab the well-defined muscle and bone, and rub it hard with the tip of his teeth.He licked the tip of his teeth to suppress this impulse, and then suddenly remembered something and said: "That's right——"

"Huh?" Kevin squatted down in the corner, groping for something there, and replied without looking back.

Oswald's teeth itched even more when he heard his lazy voice.He coughed and said seriously, "The priest Faer has a phoenix pattern on the side of his neck. Such an obvious mark should not be difficult to find." After all, according to the priest's words, the appearance of Faer is related to the Golden Lion Kingdom. life and death.

Kevin paused his fingers when he heard the words, turned his head and said angrily: "Have you seen this mentioned in "The Divine Calendar?"

"That's not true...you mean the pattern didn't follow him all the time?" Oswald said.

Kevin: "It's just that others can't see it."

Oswald thought for a while and said, "That's right...the phoenix is ​​the representative totem of Phaer. Could it have something to do with his soul? It's like something like a mark, It doesn't show up under normal circumstances, but only at specific times? For example, when the soul returns to the world when it returns?"

I have to say... young people really can diverge.Kevin squatted halfway in the corner, thinking to himself: I made another guess.

Kevin couldn't be more clear about that totem. It represents the godhead of the body. How could it be possible to show it on the neck every day?Under normal circumstances, as long as the state is stable, it will not be revealed.

In case one day His Royal Highness the God of Light suddenly has a quirk, sleepwalks, loses his soul or something, it may show up.

But the probability of this kind of thing happening is so low, it's like Melo ran to Kevin and offered him the hundred or so godheads he possessed.

In short, the emperor should not rely on this to find someone, dreaming is faster.

He muttered in his heart, and the movement of his hands didn't stop.

When he glanced over this corner of the wall just now, he saw a crack behind a soldier leaning against the wall.So he came over and groped for a while, and sure enough, he found something in the crack.

The crack was only one finger wide, and when the thing came out, it almost shattered on Kevin's hand.He shook the black powder into the palm of his hand, fiddled with it, and took a closer sniff.

"What do you just hear?" Oswald walked over with a frown.

Kevin stared at the pinch for a while, and said, "I know where this is."

Although the pinch of powder in his hand is no longer the same, Kevin can still smell it through the residual breath, which is the smell of the long vine rose.

Legend has it that the Old Rose Castle is famous for its apricot-colored roses. Roses climb every corner of the castle, which is as colorful and beautiful as a dreamy country.Thinking about it now, it probably wasn't a rose, but an apricot-colored vine rose that was very similar to a rose.

The apricot-colored vine rose is much more familiar to Kevin than the apricot-colored rose, because that is the flower that Thenis used to create Merlot.

"Where?" asked Oswald.

Kevin twisted the powder and said lightly: "Suta Hirano."

He finally knew why Melo had to let him return to his godhead here.

As far as Kevin knows about Melo, no matter when he was a child or later when his temper began to become weird, there was a hobby that I don't know whether it is an advantage or a disadvantage-he especially likes self-commemoration.

Later, Kevin thought that it was probably because he was eager to get himself out of Kevin's shadow, so he especially liked to emphasize himself.All the things created by him must be marked with a unique mark in a certain corner.He regards every day that is closely related to him as a memorial day, and marks every place that is special to him as a holy place.

In the past, Thenis and the others only thought he was like a puppy who was scratching the ground. Among the gods who considered themselves elders, this kind of behavior was stubborn and funny, or paranoid and cute, and they didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

From a certain level, these wandering gods are also big-hearted.

With Mello's personality, Suta Plain is the place where he was born. How could it not be considered a special place?And it is not simply special, it is the most sacred place.

He likes to remind everyone to remember things related to him. Letting Kevin regain his divinity in the former Suta Plain will inevitably give Melo the illusion of "I give you life", and he can always remind Kaiwen Wen, he returned to the position of God in the place where God Empress was born, this is the charity of God Empress.

This is simply too in line with Mello's temperament.

Just as he was twirling the powder in a daze, the behemoth Sirius suddenly let out a low snort from the bottom of his throat, and then bent down vigilantly, leaning against the ground, as if listening to something.
