She couldn't empathize with her parents because she had never seen them since she was a child, but she was smart and thought about it from their perspective.
If it was Maina or Zofia who died, she would surely cry her heart out and might not be able to eat for several days.
Viviana has shown great strength.
Because the incident happened suddenly, the two had no intention of reminiscing about the past. Talina simply gave the clues she had found in the past two days to Maria, who passed them on to Mainna and then returned to her room.
Nothing happened that night. When Talina woke up the next day, Viviana had already left home.
"Did you go to the Twin Towers?"
Looking at the message left by Viviana, Talina frowned.
Leithania does not have the custom of keeping corpses like Yan Country. The moment Volna's body was confirmed to be completely dead, it was cremated. It will be transported to Leithania soon and presided over by the two queens in person for a grand funeral.
It can be regarded as the highest standard of treatment.
But for an Elector of Woerner to have such a funeral was a bit excessive...
It’s not that Talina doubts her father-in-law, but the treatment given to Volna is indeed unprecedented since the founding of Leithania.
Presided over by the emperor himself, this kind of event is rare in few countries, let alone in Leithania.
"Forget it... the person is gone, why think so much? Just being able to return home is enough..."
Shaking her head, Talina stopped her wandering thoughts.
After tidying herself up, Talina sent a message to Maria and then got up and rushed to the Twin Towers.
Viviana is very sad now. Walter's ashes will be transported to Trilinterme this afternoon. She cannot miss this scene.
As for helping Maria find her parents, it will have to be postponed.
Anyway, people finally appeared in Trilinterme. They couldn't escape from such a big mobile city, so there was no need to worry.
They quickly rushed to the Twin Towers and found Viviana according to the address she left.
At this moment, she was sitting in the garden where they had rested at the beginning, and with her was Brandt, who had taken off his Golden Law Guard armor.
Without the armor covering his face, Brandt looked a little old, with a strand of white hair on his forehead and a look of sadness on his face.
Walter's death was a blow not only to Viviana, but also to Brandt, Walter's good friend.
"Mr. Brant... Viviana..."
Talina walked over slowly, greeted the two of them, then sat next to Viviana and joined their conversation.
"coming..."
Viviana forced a smile and smiled at Talina.
Her condition was much better than yesterday, but for some reason, Talina could always see a sense of brokenness in her.
"Since you're here, please help me persuade her. The Queen's Voice isn't a good position. Get away from here as soon as possible..."
Seeing that the last person had arrived, Brent simply started the conversation.
"The Queen's Festival will be held the day after tomorrow. The remaining remnants of the Witch King will fight hard at that time. In that situation, people will definitely be sacrificed. Let's leave quickly while there is still time."
"Mr. Brant, I think I've already answered this question for you before..."
Viviana looked at Brent with a smile, and the rejection in her words was obvious.
"Alas...you child...why are you so stubborn..."
Shaking his head helplessly, Brent had already anticipated Viviana's answer.
Brent was not annoyed that he could not persuade Viviana to leave. He already knew Viviana's answer anyway, and now he was just repeating it.
He was here for another matter anyway.
"Since you are unwilling to leave, then I must tell you something. Your Majesties... please stay away from this as much as possible and avoid getting too involved."
"why?"
"The Golden Rule in Wollner's possession is special. It has a protective spell within it. Only the Elector and..."
"Your Majesties."
Volume 8: Chapter 30: Being a Son
Listening to Brent's words, Talina and Viviana fell into silence.
Why are they here?
Why did Viviana accept the position of Queen's Voice?
It all started when Shi Tongling's Golden Rule Music was stolen.
As the golden melody that governs Leithania, its importance is self-evident. Transformed by the Witch-King into a powerful tool for governing the country, it can effectively link the nine regions together and integrate the power of the people of Leithania.
Now Brandt told them that the Golden Rule music kept by Wollner was special. It had a self-protection mechanism and would trigger a strong counterattack if touched by anyone other than the Elector and the Queen.
This means that this piece of golden music cannot be stolen!!!
Anyone who takes it except the Queen and the Elector will die!
The other eight electors would not come to Walner. They all have the Golden Rule to keep, and they have nothing better to do than to snatch it from Walner.
What? Are you planning a rebellion?
And it's even more impossible for the Queen. What they want is just a matter of a word. Is there any need to go through so many twists and turns?
There must be some other hidden secrets behind this.
Talina's face darkened as she keenly sensed the meaning behind Brandt's words.
The suspicions of the electors can be ruled out, and the only ones left are the Queen and Wollner.
She couldn't understand why Walter did this. The injuries he suffered during the attack were real, and the blood was not a prop. Talina really couldn't understand it.
Why do this?
What is Woerner's purpose in doing all this?
If it is said that Walner was colluding with the remnants of the Witch King, then wouldn't the grand funeral specially prepared for him by the Twin Queens become a joke?
Talina didn't believe that these two people didn't know about this.
Now that all doubts have been eliminated, no matter how absurd the remaining result is, it is the correct answer...
The queens...were responsible for the Golden Rule robbery!
After figuring out the key points, Talina raised her head and was about to ask Brandt for more details, but was interrupted by Brandt.
"Don't say anything, don't ask. Your best option and outcome is to leave here, completely. That's all I have to say. For anything else... I'm... sorry."
His expression darkened, and Brandt clenched his fists tightly on the table.
He is now the leader of the Golden Law Guards, and it is already difficult for him to tell them these things. If outsiders know about it, the consequences will be unimaginable.
It was because he knew the temperaments of his two juniors, and because of his friendship and guilt towards Walner, that he came here to warn them.
A feeling of powerlessness filled his whole body, and Brandt once again felt the same frustration as he had twenty-three years ago.
At the time, he was still loyal to the Hochberg family, but because of the Queen's transfer order, he could only watch the tragic deaths of Werner's brother and father...
The guilt in his heart drives him to make amends, but he finds that all he can do is give a warning...
He couldn't even get the whole thing out.
"What I gave you yesterday is the last treasure your father left you. You must keep it well. It is the only thing he can leave you..."
After speaking for the last time, Brent stood up and then turned and left.
The Royal Garden was a quiet place, not many people could come here, and there was no possibility of being eavesdropped on, so Talina and Viviana stayed for a while longer.
The two of them snuggled up to each other, neither of them said much, only the faint sound of their breathing intertwined with each other.
"What are you going to do? Keep going?"
After a long while, Talina finally asked.
Walter's death was related to the Queen. Even if they did not kill Walter personally, they must have been involved.
The Voice of the Queen is the Queen's personal guard. If Viviana continues to stay, Talina is really afraid that one day she will draw her sword and assassinate the two queens.
So, she actually hopes that Viviana will step down from this position.
But she decided to follow Viviana's advice on how to make the specific choice.
"I..."
Being asked this question suddenly, Viviana was obviously caught off guard.
Because she didn't know how to deal with herself. The two queens' conspiracy caused her father's death. Should she continue to serve them?
Can...
It is impossible for Walner to be unaware of the Queen's plan. The existence of the Golden Rule means that Walner must know the Queens' plan. But even so, Walner still chose to die and recommended her to join the Queen's Voice.
She was a little confused...
"No rush...it's not too late to talk about it after the funeral, there's no need to rush..."
Gently stroking Viviana's head, Talina comforted her in a low voice.
With someone to lean on, Viviana unconsciously put her head on Talina's shoulder, looking ahead with empty eyes.
The two stayed in silence for a while before Viviana got up from Talina's body.
"I want to... meet someone."
Looking into Talina's eyes, Viviana said seriously.
"Who?"
"Arturo."
.........
Standing at the foot of the Twin Towers, Talina looked up at the black spiral tower that reached the sky, and stood at the door, hesitating.
Viviana stood beside her and walked forward to make an announcement.
The guard at the door nodded in agreement, turned and went inside to report, while Viviana walked back to Talina and stood with her.
"I don't think it's a good idea. Arturo probably doesn't know his uncle any better than we do, and we may not be able to see her."
Talina actually didn't have much hope for Viviana's approach. Not to mention whether Hildegard would let them see Arturo, even if they did, what would happen?
The most important thing now is to protect yourself, but this is the decision made by Viviana, and Talina can only join in helplessly.
Soon, the guard in charge of the announcement came out and nodded to Viviana: "The Queen invites you."
After getting permission, Viviana and Talina also set out and walked into the tower.
Hildegard's tower looked very desolate. Apart from the guards outside, Talina did not see any maids or patrolling guards here.
Soon, Viviana brought Talina to Hildegarde's room.
The door of the room was ajar, and a strange, old voice came from inside.
"When we first arrived here, there was nothing. Mobile cities, towers, nobles, haha! Didn't we all live in the woods by the lake? We cooked our meals by the fire and used stones to keep out the wind?"
“It’s fine now, but…”
"His Majesty..."
Viviana interrupted the old man's chatter by knocking lightly on the door.
"Oh? You have a guest?"
Not angry at Viviana's interruption, Frémont looked at Hildegard and gently stroked his long beard with his hand.
"I've already said this before... the guards just now also reported it."
Hildegard placed her hand on her forehead, feeling somewhat powerless, and at the same time gave Viviana a look of gratitude.
"I thought this was just your little trick..."
"I wouldn't even think of that."
"Okay, that's all for today. Since you have guests, I won't bother you anymore."
Standing up from his seat, Frémont made room for Viviana and Talina without stopping for too long.
Looking at the person passing by, Talina looked at Hildegard with some curiosity.
