Chapter 15: Find the dark history of the queen?
All the people in the library were excited when they heard the queen needed someone to help her.
Work for the queen and spread the glory of the empire, we should do it!
But when they heard it was to edit history…
They suddenly had no interest.
In this day and age, fighting is a magician's main duty.
The Queen of Eternal Night swept across the seventeen countries and completed the greatest expansion in the history of the Green Vines Empire.
Her fans, naturally want to fight for the queen, instead of wasting their life.
So they thought: let us see who was the unlucky person who made the queen fancy.
Oh, it's Dio!
However, some people were unhappy.
The Queen said, "No matter where you are from, I will take in those who are able", which made a few radical nobles uncomfortable.
In this era, there is an unbridgeable gap between the commoners and the nobles.
Whether it's an official of the empire, big or small, or an ant's family that doesn't want to work hard, first of all, you have to be a noble.
Even if a commoner has cultivated into a high-level magician, he must either join the army to fight for a title, or he can only hang out in the adventure group, and it is impossible to enter the political arena of the empire.
But today, the Queen of Eternal Night wants to appoint a commoner magician as an official.
Although it is a trivial historian who is not valued by the imperial people, this is also an unprecedented initiative.
In everyone's opinion, Dio Brando himself is not important, but the symbolic meaning of this move is important!
Could it be that the Queen of Eternal Night wanted to use this person's identity to test the bottom line of the traditional aristocracy, and to let the commoners enter the dynasty in large numbers!
But what they didn't know was that the Queen of Eternal Night just wanted to punish Roger for his "indecent rudeness".
Roger stood up at a loss while the queen stared at Roger who couldn't get back to the God in time and with a smile said
"Could it be that this is our young and promising Mr. Dio Brando, are you willing to be our historian?"
"I am not talented..."
Roger was about to decline.
However, before he finished speaking, he felt the gazes of the surrounding magicians had suddenly sharpened.
As a mere commoner, it is the Queen's mercy to give you an official or half a post, so why do you have to refuse?
If you dare not give the Queen face, don't blame us for not giving you face!
There was someone who was quick-tempered and took out the white gloves, ready to throw down at any time.
[Damn it, bro, isn't it too fast? If I dare to say no, aren't you going to duel with me right away? 】
[Is the queen's prestige so terrifying? What should I do, I don't seem to have a chance to refuse this kind of public assignment? 】
[I really can't, but the queen said I can do it, so I have to do it! 】
The Queen of Eternal Night was not impatient at all, and stood there quietly, like a great monarch with a broad heart, waiting for the answer from the person she wanted to subdue with tolerant eyes.
Recognize the reality!
No need for me to take action. There are countless good men in the empire and they will tell you how to choose!
You are not the younger brother of the Right Prime Minister now, you are just a commoner, no one will protect you if something goes wrong!
Facing the countless hostile gazes around him, Roger had no choice but to change his words:
"I am... that, it's really surprising that Your Majesty trusts me so much, and I will do everything in my power to repair the history of the empire for Her Majesty!"
"Okay, the curator will arrange your work later."
"According to the purpose..."
Roger mind in mess at this time.
[No, this is settled? If there is no administrative exam or something, I will become a civil servant?]
[Your Majesty, aren't you being too hasty? I don't know history at all, I'm a jerk! I can't afford such a big job! 】
[Should I identify myself as Roger Charles?] 】
[No, that is the crime of deceiving the empress, and there is no doubt that I will die...]
[Hey, I'm so annoyed, this queen is poisonous, why did you choose me so coincidentally? 】
The Queen of Eternal Night deeply took Dio's tangled and twisted expression in her heart, laughed loudly, and continued to visit the Great Library.
Do you think you can pull out of the palm my hand just by changing your face?
Young man, you're still too young.
……
……
Soon, the queen returned to the palace.
Roger thought about running away.
But he did not have any chance at all.
Imperial talents don't care who is the historian.
After all if a historical recorder, who was selected by the Queen herself, ran away on his first day, wouldn't it make the Queen very embarrassed?
Therefore, whether it is the guards of the big library or the magicians who read books together, they are guarding this Dio whether consciously or not.
It was like this until the curator's assistant came to invite him.
Roger was helpless and followed him to a large office.
Inside there are more than a dozen historical consultants who are poor and illustrious, as well as piles of materials and messy drafts.
The director of the great library called Finn Rodney waited for Roger at the door.
This is a fat middle-aged man, with the strength of a magician, who is always smiling, and doesn't seem to be in a hurry to do anything.
He brought Roger to familiarize himself with the environment, and after introducing him to those scholars who were studying the history of the empire, he said earnestly:
"The compilation of imperial history began in the first year of the Eternal Night Calendar, but unfortunately the five historians were either sick or had an accident..."
"Wait, the accident you're talking about isn't..." Roger groaned in his heart.
You won't be a small historian, and your life is in danger, right?
"Don't worry, no one here dares to plot against imperial officials." Curator Rodney said proudly, and then showed a bit of helplessness, "It's just... um, you'll understand when you ask
the consultants about the editing progress. "
"???"
"Anyway, Her Majesty is quite dissatisfied with the delay of this matter. I hope Mr. Brando can produce some results as soon as possible to repay Her Majesty's trust!"
Curator Finn patted Roger on the shoulder and floated away.
Roger was a little helpless. The pavilion's elder was a riddle, and he only spoke half of it.
He had no choice, he could only ask those white-haired consultants:
"Teachers, where is the history of our empire?"
Roger's attitude was quite polite.
After all, he doesn't know how to edit history, and he has to rely on these old scholars to lead him.
The chief advisor of the expert group is called Freeman, an old man with a face as black as coal, who faintly spit out four words: "The Manyu City Incident."
"It turns out that the eve of the rise of the queen has arrived..."
Scholar Yong immediately understood.
The Manyu City Incident was the tragedy that led to the fall of half of the Green Vines Kingdom, and the little princess was forced to succeed as the queen.
That year, when the Queen of Eternal Night was sixteen years old, the neighboring Kingdom of Vanbruga attacked the city of Manuel, and the king, queen, crown prince, and several children died.
In an instant, the people were headless, almost on the verge of destroying the country.
At this moment, the little eighth princess stepped forward, relying on her powerful magic power to attack the enemy generals and cause chaos, giving the kingdom a month of respite.
Then she succeeded as the queen and spent that month consolidating the remaining power of the Green Vine Kingdom and destroying the Vanbruga Kingdom with bloody means.
This is the background information of the game.
It has already arrived at the Manyu City Incident. It is said that the compilation of imperial history is almost complete, and only the relevant deeds of the Queen can be written in the history books.
But this job is stuck here, even changing the historian...
It shows that the Manuel City Incident is tricky!
Roger immediately communicated with his historical advisors.
And checking the secret letters, military information, news records, etc. they have sorted out, and dug up the dark history of the queen...
"The queen was suspected of murdering her brother or uncle, and then got the throne?"
Roger's eyes gleamed.
No wonder his five predecessors, to keep their official titles and titles, found various reasons to stop here and did not dare to advance.
Some things simply cannot be avoided.
Wanting to decorate this piece of history to the satisfaction of the Queen of Eternal Night is as difficult as going to the sky!
You can think in a different direction and use this history to anger the queen...
I'm afraid it's easy, right?
Does Roger want to be the historian?
He doesn't want to!
"As long as I capitalize on the Manyu incident and dig up black material, can I be dismissed immediately and return to my life as a fisherman?"
Roger, who had been depressed all the time, suddenly came to his senses.
He felt that he had inadvertently found the answer to bring the great cause of loafing around back on track!
