Blood Of Platinum
Chapters 312. Truth For Magic Council bag. 2
“The black magic used the conflicts of contention that took place at the parliament table and the rebellion involving my friends. And the one who became one of the victims at that time was Marquis Vermillion”
“Therefore, the real death of the Marquis is not the same as that of the scattered. It was because at the time of the showdown it was most likely that the Marquis was there”.
Lucas was already shocked enough to hear that and now he is made even more shocked.
“The magic is active. Little information, when the dispute occurred at the parliament table, King Lucario and Master Dresden were with the Marquis which means they also witnessed all that”
“What? Master even His Majesty as well.but why do you know everything to such a detail? Besides, if it's true then should Earl Midford not remember it either? Why did he come up with such a plan?”
“I heard from my master that the user will not be exposed to the effects of magic and it seems like your king made the most fatal mistake in the world”
“Fatal error?”
“The history of the incident was recorded by the magic system and stored in the communication network of magic devices. Now, if you go to the office [The Office of The Magic Department]”
“.....!” Lucas was surprised
“Black magic that can manipulate and seal memories only applies to living things, but does not apply to the magic system”
“As you know that the history of this country is entirely stored in a file”
“[The History of Our Kingdom]” murmured Lucas
“Fast. In the office, the whole history is formed, the population data, the genealogy of the hero family and the kingdom are there. But, have you ever wondered why no one has re-accessed it?”
“....” Lucas was silent
“That's because you assumed that you all knew about the history of your own country well”
“In the file, the latest news published is about the death of Marquis Vermillion who died with his wife and daughter. Why did it happen? Because after that everything was exposed to magic [Altergeist Memorygant: Mind Master]”
“The ability of black magic is much stronger compared to the magic system of the parliament at that time and again, the one using the magic is King Lucario himself. It is clear that a king must know, at least how to weaken the parliamentary system”
Lucas found little incompatibility or perhaps a little foreign.
“Shortly. You said that His Majesty the King did it. However, he would not be as careless as that”
“Maybe. But what if back then, he was forced to do it because of something. For example, seeing one of his friends get killed right before the magic was forced to be used?”
“What?!” Lucas was surprised again
“I have said that when the conflict occurred King Lucario and Master Dresden were near the Marquis. It was clear that they must have seen the incident. However, since the magic of King Lucario was used then all are considered never recorded in the memory of all of them”
“Including the actual history we have all known from the beginning?” Lucas tried to confirm
“Bar”
It was a surprise and an unexpected thing. Lucas's mind managed to deduce everything.
‘Initiated with a 50-year war on the rejection of a race deemed damned, the two create a life-magic weapon that sacrifices the blood of their fallen friends known as Artifact’
‘When everything has been successfully suppressed by families who are considered heroes, the peace no longer lasts because of the two camps created. Although a peace agreement has been made but did not solve the problem with provokator’
‘This continues until finally there is a sealed event the memory of everyone so that they forget all history so that no one remembers the dark period’
‘On the good side, everyone might forget about the things that happened and be able to live peacefully. That's all I have in mind. His Majesty the King might do such a thing to protect all and create peace’
Lucas said to Galaktika, “I am sure of this magic, Your Majesty the King managed to realize all the hopes of your race. Wouldn't it be nice if all that dark history was sealed? Everyone will not remember bad things in the past”
Lucas confirmed what he had just said. However, the facial expression of the Galactics was completely different.
“You know what, Xelhanien?”
“.....” Lucas felt the difference in aura
A murderous aura surrounded the room. Galaktika became angry to hear Lucas's words just now.
“You said that your king did this to save us and answer our hope? Don't make me laugh!”
“You think you know everything that's really going on?! Let me tell you something so you can open your eyes wide about how evil your king is!”
“Since the peace agreement and we have decided to leave, some of us did decide to stay but it did not go well. We are considered unlucky bearers and are traded like animals and slaves!”
“In addition, the village that we have created ourselves in order to be able to rise again from the slump was destroyed by the royal army and it was all on the order of the king that you consider good!”
“......!!!” Lucas shock. His eyes widened and he looked so serious now.
The Galactics still did not fully expel the entire darkness of his heart.
“Your forces destroyed three villages including my village which is in the south of the eastern region. And at that time, the one who helped us was Earl Midford. It was the youth who saved us and provided security to the beastman race and the half-elf!”
“Earl who...do it?!”
The more Lucas hears it, the more he distrusts Lucas with what Galaktika says. However seeing his current expression, Duke Xelhanien could not tell that he was lying.
The killing aura and anger surrounding the place was proof of that.
“Earl saved us and repulsed the entire royal army. He said that all these events were the greed of your king who was trying to wipe us all out of the history of”
“And all that was slander since 50 years ago. We, half-elfs and beastmen never give bad luck to anyone, but instead we are the ones who are always unlucky!”
“Because of you, both my parents and my five brothers were burned to death during the attack. Virgo, Rayel and Vares feel the same way! Finally me and my three friends decided to take revenge”
“It is a coincidence that the ambition of the Earl is to bring down your greedy king, until finally I am with the master to form a group called Rebellenarmee and our main goal is to bring down your king family”
“All starts from seizing the weapon from the souls of our fallen friends that is Artifact including eliminating people into the possession of Artifact that is Mark Vermillion. Although the mission has failed”
“But thanks to that, we no longer need to attach importance to those useless beastmen”
Galactica and her handsome face turned into a real killer face.
Lucas immediately remembered Mark's report of the assault he had suffered before arriving at the academy.
‘Mark says that his opponent knows nothing about Artifact. So they fooled the beastman who was in the same position as them’
The half-elf teenager resumed his words.
“We are also targeting the descendants of the strongest heroes of the moment in addition to the owners of the Artifact that is you, Lucas Xelhanien and Rexa van Houdsen. However, there was a slight change in plan”
“Given that the new Marquis van Houdsen's candidate was our Lady's fiance, the Earl asked us not to do anything to her. There was news that he would also be an Artifact user other than Marquis Vermillion so we had to make good use of him. That was his initial intention”
“And the third is to kill dirty blood. It was just a one-sided request from our Lady, but our master was in favor of her and my three friends would still be on that mission. They're gonna kill Xenon van Houdsen”
