Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave

That night the simulated battle with the Emperor Leonhardt took place. Kate had come to the second library room at the Imperial Castle, which she had told Empress Vale a few days earlier.

"... sorry to call you at this hour"

When Kate admitted to Vale in her evening dress, she bowed her head and apologized. It was already late at night, and in an unpopular library there was no way to meet a man. However, there were circumstances in Vale that could not be pulled off.

"... no, this matter concerns the Empire of Entesia itself. If you do poorly, the history of the country itself will change dramatically. Can you explain?

"... Yes. But please keep this a secret from His Majesty the Emperor and himself."

"I'll judge that after I hear it."

To the words of Kate, told after profound consideration, Vale returns them in his attitude as royalty. That was all that mattered to her. Well, that won't help. Exactly, information that could change history.

Besides, Kite doesn't say anything, and for now, we'll see if there's any hidden escorts, etc. No one can escape their own serious scanning. There's no one there who can't deal with himself.

That's how Kate figured out that she was totally alone now. In the first place, this Imperial Castle is home to her. Besides, the place is one of the libraries. You don't have to take many escorts to that place. The maid wasn't suspicious when she was following me, but I guess she left it for some reason. There was no surveillance by magic, etc., and I was completely alone.

"... Then come here. < >"

Kate gives a short oral vote against one of the bookshelves in the library room between the walls, sensing her surroundings without alarm. There was nothing strange about the bookshelf, but according to Kite's dictation, it disappeared with light.

"This is..."

It was one door that appeared before the bookshelf disappeared. At the end of which Kite opened the door was a spiral staircase. The spiral staircase continued further up, indicating that it was further up from the second library room, which should be located on the top floor of the Imperial Castle.

But at least I never heard of Vale. Further up, it did not appear to be an escape route. That's why she was surprised to open her eyes. What the hell is the point and this space? I just didn't get it.

"Who the hell would do a trick like this..."

"I can't help but know. You don't even know this, every Duke's house, Grand Duke, no Emperor. Even at my Duke McDawell house, I'm the only one who knows. I haven't even told my fiancée, Tina. There's probably only one person but me who still knows and survives."

Listen to Kate and Vale reveals her surprise. What this meant was that even his people were suggesting that they might not know.

"Does that mean His Majesty the 15th?

"... Yes"

Vale is once again surprised by Kite's answer, which he answered briefly. Will left most of the information to future generations, except for this and Kate. But now Kate's word is that Leonhardt, the emperor now, doesn't know either.

That's how the two creep through the door that showed up and climb the spiral staircase. The bookshelf covered the door again when they entered and hid the two of them. Then a wooden door greeted the two men who climbed to the top.

"< >"

When Kite speaks to the door further, the door disappears. What seemed to the door was a mere sight, and that was just a wall. Therefore, no matter how many door knobs you try to move, the door will not move whether you push, pull, or slide.

Besides - which Vale could not understand - the doors themselves were also made of unknown sorcery constructed with theories that did not exist in this world, and were moreover an arrangement of multiple weaves of different world art ceremonies. In other words, it was a sorcery that no matter how I scratched it, the inhabitants of this world could not analyze. Besides, it was a strength that would not have been possible to destroy had it not been for how powerful it was, about kite or tina.

What was so tightly sealed was Vale's breathtaking contents, but what appeared that way was merely a room decorated with several paintings without any change of philosophy.

"My apologies for the delay in greeting you, Your Grace"

"Is this... His Majesty the First King and His Royal Highness the First Queen?

Apart from Kite, who kneels toward the painting and takes his subordinate thanks, Vale groaned as he observed the painting. There is nothing unusual about the painting itself, neither is the painted figure itself, nor anyone in the empire has seen it, needless to say, the first king Ixphos and his first queen, Justizia. Therefore, she did not question why this painting had to be hidden.

"... what the hell is this toddler..."

After a close look at the painting, I noticed the baby held by the first queen, whom Vale wrote in between. That was not only one of them, but also painted like a girl growing up in many paintings.

Thus, when she arrived at one painting, she opened her eyes and was surprised. The woman in the painting was the person who became the hangover coming to this room.

"Is this... the growth record of Lord Justina, the Demon King?

Although the birth of Tina, whom she hears, is uncertain, her demonic rule began 100 years after the founding of the Empire. Then he thought it was no surprise that the metaphor first king and Tina knew each other. That said, at this point she had lost consciousness of the anomaly she had noticed.

"I can say yes, I can say no"

It was the voice of the old man, not kite, who answered it.

"Lord Heisenberg! How do you know this room!

Vale noticed his voice and turned around, acknowledging the person in his voice and opening his eyes. It was dubious to think that he knew a room that even the Emperor did not know.

"Grandpa. What, what's up?

"Hmm, what. It's about you. I thought I'd show my face when I got here. When I first came here, I knew I was coming."

"Liar. You've come a long way, haven't you?

Kate tells Jake, Lord Heisenberg, to smile a little bitterly. He was the only one in the empire today who knew about the existence of this room besides Kite.

Well, the other one, Hermes, the old sage who knew this room existed, is already dead, and everyone else alive seems to be going to take it all the way to the grave. So he could say that he was the last Imperial nobleman to learn of the existence of this room outside the producer.

"Well... so why is His Royal Highness Vale here?

Look at Tina.

The two discuss the surprised Vale elsewhere and why there are people who are not supposed to be in this place. So it looks like Jake, Lord Heisenberg, passed it on. Apparently, her ancestral return was quite famous to those working at the Imperial Castle.

"I see... have I been late to tell you? I never thought I'd meet him, but he was a vendetta... I was gonna teach him at the next night's club..."

"I met Lord McDawell with Dr. Ixa. At that time, I met with Lord Justina the Demon King... and I was... Is Lord Justina the Truth, the Imperial Family? Or is it the connection between the first sire?

When they heard Vale's words, they sighed deeply. Yes, that's why she came to ask Kite the truth.

Once the Demon King who united the Demon Nation became the royal family of another country, and in every history book, it was untold in any story. Yet her power undoubtedly shows that she is royal. That was the cause of her surprise. There are two possibilities. It was, as she asked, whether Tina was an Emperor of Entesia or a visitor from other worlds, as was Ixphos.

And this was also a troublesome reason. In the case of the Empire, the right to inherit the throne does not disappear, even if the heir to the throne of his own generation is confirmed. That is normally rendered meaningless by the Crown Prince nomination, but it will nevertheless remain so, unless the person renounces his right to inherit the throne until his death.

And, naturally, they are usually given the right to inherit the throne in the order in which they were born early, so if they were alive, they would be the best.

That said, it is customary to renounce the right to inherit the throne because at that point, no matter how you scratch it, you are not old enough to withstand the fierce duty of emperor. Even if you have one, it's at best contemporary and near-age brothers in case of sudden death, to the extent. If the next successor is approached, it is customary to abandon them.

But if Tina had a true right to inherit the throne, she hadn't waived it, and it would have allowed her to inherit the throne. Besides, there are procedures for renouncing succession to the throne.

In other words, in some cases she was the number one successor to the throne in modern times. When this happens, even the Empire of Entesia has a troublesome status quo due to the issue of succession. I'm sure of the rub.

"She... Tina is"

"I can do it. Kite, let's call it in and have it decorated."

Just then a golden beauty came out the door further back of the room as Kate decided to open her mouth. She has a painting in her hand the same size as the painting she is now decorating, and if the current language is certain, it must be where she just did it.

"Are you..."

"Lord Fafnir. You will be as beautiful as ever."

"Mmm."

When I look at the nodding Gwen and Lord Heisenberg, Vale is stunned. I was there because I could not behave disrespectfully with Jake, Lord Heisenberg, against Gwen. Well, I'm not the one who cares about that. Therefore, I immediately realized that there was a target person beside me.

"Oh, kite. Yaho."

"Whoa. New, you made it?

In response to Kite's inquiry, Gynn answered with a V-sign. In fact, as Kate entered the Empire, she had also secretly entered the Imperial Castle, and had been writing a single painting for weeks now. Glia and the others were also here to wait for the completion of this painting.

"This"

Place the baffling vale elsewhere so that Gynn can turn the painting upside down and look like Kite. What was depicted there was a girl with a bright smile like a sunflower and a boy who looked somewhere lit. And it was four women with a soft grin and one young man with a nostalgic grin.

You don't need me.

Seeing that painting, Kite tells him with a bitter smile. The illuminated boy depicted there was still himself at the time he came to this world. Next to me was Tina with a bright smile worthy of appearance. Besides, Gynn said it without even laughing.

"Because of this"

Gynn hands Kite the painting and wipes his painted cheeks. They don't mean a lot to you about even being portrayed as Kite.

As such, Kite, who receives a new painting, approaches the wall of the room where several paintings are decorated. Like she said, it was Kate's role to decorate. Well, it's Gynn who's thinking about the layout, so the truth is that she told me several times, but I couldn't.

"So, where do you decorate it?

"There."

Due to his tall height, it is easier for Kite to decorate the painting than for Guin, so he gave it to Kite. Thus, a single painting had already been decorated in the place to which Gynn pointed.

"I don't need that anymore"

"Are you sure?

"Yeah. Now I think it's a failure"

Gynn nods without any particular emotion for Kate's words. This should have taken weeks to draw too, but she seems to have lost interest.

What was decorated there was a painting with Tina of the same age as Kite's new painting. There was no kite in the painting, but the three of them were smiling.

"It doesn't look like Tina over there. This one's more natural."

In Gwen's words, Kate and Lord Heisenberg Jake peek into the two paintings and compare them to even more paintings hung on the wall.

Sure, if you ask me, Tina in the painting now on the wall has some elegant smile on her face and she's not like her. In contrast, Tina in the painting that Kate now holds was a bright grin when she was with friends such as Meizuke and Yuri.

"... well, it sure doesn't look better this way,"

When Kate and Lord Heisenberg Jake think a little and smile bitterly and nod at each other, they hang the painting exactly as Gynn said. Thus, the remaining painting was handed to Gynn, and she erased the painting. Well, you wouldn't have thrown it away, so you must have been in a different space.

"Um... what the hell is this room..."

Vale, who was totally left behind, asks for a snack. That's right before Gynn, one of the ancient dragons, so he lost his chance to say it. And with that, I cut out the kite like it lit up.

"Hmm?... Oh, excuse me. This is the room... where Gynn dedicates a painting of his growth for both sires who no longer see your daughter. In the fold of both sires' lives, it was a room for a glimpse of their growth..."

"Who is that son...... Lord Justina after all?

At last, to Vale's words poking at her core, Kate looked into her eyes and opened her mouth.

"... Yes. Her original name was Justina Sophitia Entesia. His Majesty called you Sofi... the true story, the first son of His Majesty the First King Ixfos Entes Entesia and the First Queen Justiza Noinze Entesia... erased from history, the First Empress,"

Kate admits Vale's words, as she spits them out. That was Tina's real name, never even known Tina now. She was the son of a history erased by the Empire. Thus, one end of the hidden history was to be untied.
