Chapter 1743 - 1178: She Should Leave Too (Part 2)
Now it seems that there is still the so-called theory of bloodline purity.
And the High Priest brought up this matter for a simple reason.
"If the previous king’s mother or sister really propagated their lineage in another world, and Your Highness is the descendant of those lineages, then she could never be recognized by the sacred sword."
"But now, the sacred sword has clearly recognized Your Highness."
"This means that Your Highness could not possibly be a descendant propagated in another world."
The High Priest said this with absolute certainty.
Reiger became silent immediately.
Since it’s impossible that the lineage was propagated in another world, it proves that Liz’s bloodline is extremely pure, being the legitimate heir born on the Akasha continent of the Reinnaier royal lineage.
But the temple has also verified that, except for the previous king’s mother and sister, the whereabouts of all previous royal members are clear, and there have been no instances of bloodlines lost outside.
In this case, the bold hypothesis about Liz’s identity turns out to be the only answer.
Liz couldn’t possibly be the previous king’s mother.
Therefore, she can only be the previous king’s sister.
This time, even Reiger couldn’t help but glance at the door.
Outside, Yuloli is still waiting for them.
She is the last queen of the ancient magic civilization, the only daughter of the previous king.
If Liz is the previous king’s sister, then does it mean... Liz is Yuloli’s aunt?
Ah, this...
Reiger’s first reaction was not absurdity, but incredulity.
If this is true, then didn’t that mean he... with both the previous king’s sister and daughter...
... In a way, this is even more thrilling than the mother-daughter feast!
Reiger didn’t dare to think further, fearing the previous king would suddenly appear, picking up the sword of Moslo, stabbing towards his heart in anger.
Liz, on the other hand, didn’t think as much as Reiger, instead she urgently spoke up.
"Then, what happened to my parents?"
"If I was taken to another world, then how did I return?"
"And about Mia Granny... what happened?"
Liz eagerly wanted answers to these questions.
"Don’t worry, Your Highness, I will tell you these one by one." The High Priest first calmed Liz, then said, "If you are indeed the previous king’s sister, then according to the records, your father passed away during a battle in another world when your mother was just pregnant with you."
"Your mother also got injured in that battle, which resulted in leaving a malady in you, who was still in the womb, causing you to pass away shortly after birth."
"Your mother took the already deceased you, went to the temple that worshiped the ’God’, and then disappeared, clearly to find miracles in another world to save you."
"From the results, she undoubtedly succeeded, thus leading to your return."
"However, your mother likely exhausted her energy for this and ultimately couldn’t return."
The High Priest told Liz, upon discovering that her mother likely took her sister to another world, the previous king had instructed the temple priests to continually monitor the movements of the ’God,’ and report immediately if his mother or sister returned.
Unfortunately, in the years that followed, the temple worshiping the ’God’ remained silent.
The High Priest checked the records left by the temple and confirmed during that period, aside from the previous king himself, there was no second person using the power of the ’God’ to travel between the two worlds.
And the previous king’s mother was already injured and striving to save her deceased daughter, it’s imaginable that her fate was grim, hence she couldn’t return.
"As for how you returned, Your Highness, we don’t know." The High Priest shook her head, saying: "After Your Highness returned, this world had already passed over ten thousand years, the ancient magic civilization had perished, and we had taken residence in the Hidden Land, no longer intervening in external conflicts, greatly reducing our control over the outside, thus even we are unclear why Your Highness suddenly returned."
Upon hearing this, regardless of Liz’s reaction, Reiger fell silent.
He turned his attention to his mind, looking at the transparent cube spinning there.
Why did he acquire the dimensional cube that should have been worshipped as a ’God’ in the temple by the ancient magic civilization?
This question, Reiger has never solved.
He now has a question he wants to ask the High Priest.
But, before that, the High Priest still needs to solve Liz’s last doubt.
"The Mia Granny that Your Highness mentioned..."
The High Priest paused her tone, then said.
"Actually, I know her."
Upon hearing this, both Reiger and Liz looked up.
"You know Mia Granny?"
Liz’s eyes brightened, hurriedly spoke.
"Sort of." The High Priest sighed for some reason, said: "Although I only stayed with her for a few months, those few months were quite pleasant."
"During that time, I always felt she was a mysterious character."
The High Priest recounted that passage.
It was an incident from about seven years ago.
At that time, just like today, the High Priest suddenly felt an abnormal fluctuation in the Hidden Land’s space.
When she reached the place where the anomaly appeared, she met that person — Mia.
"The first glance I had at her, I knew that person was nearing death."
"Her actual age might be older than mine, yet unlike me, she couldn’t slow the loss of vitality merely through the flow of large magic power."
"She had no illness or pain, but as a human, she was already very old."
"Not long after, she would pass away peacefully."
The High Priest’s words made Liz’s eyes red.
But Liz did not feel unable to accept it.
Originally, when Mia was about to hand her to Hemulinp, Mia had already told her that she was nearing death, couldn’t take care of her any longer, hence she had to hand her over to her "biological father" to be raised.
Therefore, in this aspect, Liz was prepared mentally for a long time.
The High Priest continued to tell her story.
"She told me she had fulfilled her last promise, and the reason she came here was to see what the Hidden Land looked like before she died."
"She said it was beautiful here and peaceful, but she didn’t like it."
"Because, seeing this place reminded her that the person she painstakingly raised like a granddaughter actually didn’t belong to her, nor to her world."
The High Priest said, back then Mia was already somewhat mentally confused.
The High Priest also said that she could feel a peculiar energy within Mia, who looked very old.
Relying on that energy, although old, Mia could do many things others couldn’t.
For instance, she could enter places others couldn’t reach, read memories others couldn’t access, adept at uncovering hidden secrets.
With that energy, Mia could come to the Hidden Land, and leave many things for Liz.
Such as the Moslo sword originally not supposed to be in Liz’s possession.
And the beast hide map.
"She once said she had a benefactor who rescued her from the abyss."
"After the benefactor left, she promised to take the benefactor’s daughter back to her hometown as a form of gratitude."
"Now the benefactor’s daughter has grown up, and she has fulfilled her promise."
"Since that’s so, she should leave too."
