When the witch leader came to METZL castle, she came with gratitude. When she left, gratitude had turned into awe.
She found in many people in Legrand a power she had never seen before, such as the scholar who swore to take off the sun, such as the theologians who argued endlessly in pubs. For the first time, the descendants of the ancient snakes of the far north saw something more powerful than the ancient snakes of the world that they longed for in countless dreams.
Even though she didn't know what it was.
After returning to the first Pathological Research Institute of Legrand, the witch leader on the broom looked at her people nervously and showed a happy smile.
"Your Majesty is willing to accept us as the people of Legrand!"
She raised the king's letter in her hand and said in a loud voice.
These days, pretending to be calm, the nervous witches cheered.
When the witches cheered, some were deeply disappointed and angry.
That's bishop Anil and the theologians around him.
………………
How to build the wall made of paper and grass will eventually collapse.
Even though bishop Anil had been disappointed with the holy see for a long time, the fact always made them more sad.
"Lord, what are these for?"
An old theologian lamented in despair in the royal archives specially opened for them by the king. Most of the theologians who left the holy city and came to Legrand were more or less suspicious. However, when the truth was so naked in front of them, the pain brought by the collapse of the ancient faith was still unacceptable.
"What else is truth? What else is false? "
His sorrowful and indignant questions echoed in the air, and the theologians gathered here did not look very well, and the atmosphere was dead.
Together with them are a group of Legrand's most outstanding historians. This is probably a strange joint work. Their purpose is to study the papacy. Bishop Anil didn't know the king Or how long has the rose family been preparing for this day? The historians who came to help them are surprisingly familiar with the history of the Holy See.
This is not something a generation can do.
Countless carefully preserved historical materials, many historians repeatedly study, if not for the constant attention of the monarch of the rose family from generation to generation, it is difficult to achieve this situation.
It gives theologians a sense that Legrand has always been preparing for today.
In the end, he accumulated a lot.
The idea that "the Pope has absolute power" is unshakable in the hearts of saints. The supreme universal power of the Pope is one of the most basic and oldest beliefs of believers.
But now everything has collapsed.
"The collection of the orders of Lucado, published in 677 ad, was compiled by cassido, Andr and dieteo They were church jurists of the time. " Bishop Anil placed the first officially compiled collection of orders on the table, with theologians pale and historians calm.
"All the precedents quoted by it are fictitious. In fact, this is a collection of false orders."
Said count Worley, Dean of the Royal Academy of history, calmly.
He was an elderly man with silver hair and blue eyes, wearing a scarlet double breasted robe and a dark gold medal pinned to his chest. There are some similarities between the medal and the rose badge, but there are some differences. The relief on the medal is a straight and drooping sword with rose flowers coiled around it.
The historians behind count worry pushed the doubts and evidence they had reasonably sorted out during this period to the middle of the long case.
"The Diocese of diante, which was published in 1113 by the Vatican college."
"Seventy percent is fake."
"Cartani to the Pope..."
"A subtle deception, unfortunately, it's also fake."
……
"My dear gentlemen."
Count worry stood up, and he looked around at the people around him. In this vast archive, his voice was deep and powerful.
"What constitutes the throne of the noble saint? As you and I can see, there are countless carefully processed lies. But the truth is the truth, and the most wonderful lies are only lies after all. Are we going to make it public, or are they going to cheat in the name of the Eternal Lord
Silence.
The theologians looked at the scroll in front of them speechless.
"I believe that gentlemen will make the choice of true believers."
Count worry bowed deeply to the theologians, then got up and left with the Royal Academy of history, leaving space for the theologians who had lost their last trust in the Holy See.
On entering the courtyard, count Worley raised his head.
The sun is shining.
It's near the end of spring.
Summer is coming, the sun will be burning like fire.………………
The king walked in rows of high bookshelves.
This is the Royal Library, which is located in the history school of the Royal College. If theologians are lucky enough to get on the top of it, they will find that their guess is right.
Legrand historians' familiarity with the history of the Holy See did not come out of thin air.
In the Royal College, there are many historians who came here when they were the youngest, from their youth to their grey hair. Some of them spent their lives trying to verify the authenticity of a document hundreds of years ago. Some of them read numerous boring and heavy historical materials in order to study the real reasons behind a small battle between the holy court and the heretics
They are unknown and submerged in the vast amount of historical data.
In the upper class, they are called "nerds who study useless learning".
However, in the eyes of the king, they are also the best hunters and trackers - on another battlefield.
The Royal College of history has been established for a long time, almost equal to the history of the royal family. This unknown Department has been doing one thing for so many years, that is, tracking the footprints of the holy see like a hound in the fog of history. In this battlefield, they are as patient hunters as the jurists and theologians of the Holy See school.
Legrand has been preparing for today's counterattack for a long time.
The rose family did not know where Legrand would start the first chapter of resistance in the future, so they chose the most stupid and stubborn way.
They keep all the history they know and collect information from their enemies like greedy spiders.
In this battlefield, all the scholars with white hair and unknown are all valiant knights.
"Good day, your majesty."
Count worry found the king in front of the bookshelf marked "1st century - 2nd century battle information of Holy Spirit bay". He bowed and saluted the king respectfully.
With a slight nod, he walked out of the library with him and came to the study of count nevoli in the Royal College.
Count worry and the king reported the results of the research on the papal house.
"A collection of forged orders?" The king read count worry's summary report and sneered, "antique dealers should be glad they don't have much interest in counterfeiting."
"Perhaps antique dealers are better at counterfeiting than they are, your majesty."
Count Worley laughed.
He was more familiar with the king than other people, because most of the manuscripts of rose family history read by the king in his early Enlightenment period were compiled by him. The Duke of Buckingham once brought the king here when he was young. At that time, count worry was in charge of the reception of the king.
He is also a member of the rose family.
Unlike other members of the royal family, count worry was very weak because of a serious illness in his childhood. Therefore, after he was knighted by Charles, the lion king, he did not work hard on the war horse any more, but took root in the study of chronicles. If someone wants to make a detailed investigation of the royal family of Legrand, he will find that almost every generation of the royal family of Legrand has become a historian.
Within the rose family, these people are called -
swordsmen.
They are the sword of the rose family hanging over their heads.
The life span of mortals is so short, but the history of rose family is so long. They want to stick to this millennium kingdom from the end of the legend era. Life, old age, illness and death, between a hundred years, for ordinary people, it has been the alternation of generations, and between life and death, memory and hatred are so forgotten.
However, in this world, everyone can forget, only the rose family can't.
If they forget, who will wake up the alchemists who go to the fire with their bodies? Who will pass on the anger of mortals from generation to generation?
So there is the "sword hanger".
In every generation of rose family, some people will quietly retreat from the political stage and hide in the shadow that no one can see.
Give up glory, give up fame and wealth, they become the cornerstone of the family.
Hatred can't be forgotten, sacrifice heroes can't be forgotten, fighting spirit and persistence can't be forgotten. The young generation of the swordsmen are taking over the work of the old generation, recording the deeds of all the ancestors of the rose family, all the battles they have experienced and all the sufferings they have suffered, and turning them into all the children who have the blood of the rose and heard big stories from childhood.
At this time, history became a seed, planted as a child, and finally grew into a giant tree.
In this way, they put the shame and mission of the millennium on the top of their families.
Because of this, even after a thousand years, when it comes to the "war of God's punishment" which caused the collapse of the Empire overnight, there will be a haze in the eyes of every king of Legrand. Because of this, even after a thousand years, there will be people like crazy King Henry, William III, the Duke of Buckingham.Mortals in front of the gods, life as ephemera, life and death.
But mortals who live and die conquer time.
