Why is this light dazzling my eyes?
Pleasant suddenly felt that the lights in the hall were shaking, but this feeling only lasted for a moment and did not attract Pleasant's attention too much.
Is this the 1st Governor of Norton, Earl Ducalin? He does look quite old.
Pleasant looked up at the old man who was surrounded by crowds in the center of the hall, only to find that the other person's eyes were completely focused on Vitor and Earl Othlemon, and seemed to have completely ignored Pleasant next to him.
It seems that Earl Bill Norton did not do well when he was in school and did not have a good relationship with the teacher.
Plisson muttered in his heart, and then his attention was attracted by the lamp held by the old man.
The lantern the old man is holding is...
Pleasant recalled some of Norton's legends about the first governor. Legend has it that Count Ducaline worked at the Skyhawk Research Institute in his early years and had the title of Lord within the Research Institute.
Some of the military's new weapons and emerging technologies that are only used within "Yggdrasil", many of them came from this man. Therefore, his position in the scientific research institute is very special, except for the one who controls the scientific research institute. "Sir, I'm afraid there are few people in the scientific research institute who have a higher status than him.
However, Ducalin was also mentally damaged due to a research incident at the Scientific Research Institute. He was unable to continue serving in the Scientific Research Institute, so he had to take a back seat and serve as a professor at the University of Nemeans.
Taking into account Ducalin's contribution to some important research results in the scientific research institute and Sky Eagle, Ducalin was awarded the hereditary title of earl by Grand Duke Rogge. In order to treat his mental damage, Grand Duke Rogge also gave gave him a special forbidden item.
This is a rare taboo item with a harm index of almost 0. It is said to be able to help others soothe their spirits and stabilize their moods. Although it doesn’t sound like a big deal, for Ducarin Ember who has been severely mentally damaged, this item can help. It was said to be quite useful. The old man kept him with him all year round, and the shape of the forbidden item... seemed to be a lantern.
"Old man, you are finally here." Count Othelemon walked to the old man's side with a smile.
"To wish you well this time, all my classmates are here."
The old man stared at Oselemomb intently. His severely drooped eyelids slightly covered the old man's clear eyes, but his eyes were still young and bright.
His dry lips opened slightly and he made a hoarse sound.
"One is missing...One is missing, I know, one is missing."
"...Pu Luo does not, but you know his feelings."
"Yes... yes... I know... This is what I have always known. His situation... I have always known." The old man lowered his head and repeated The repeated words seemed to be mixed with some kind of sad emotion.
Puluo?
Plisson, who was standing behind Count Oselemon, was stunned when he heard the two men mentioning his father's name, but then he thought that Prolo had indeed studied at the University of Nemea.
His age seems to match the young nobles of Norton 10 years ago, but... Why is the words spoken by this Earl of Ducalin a bit strange? Could it be that the rumored mental damage is so serious, so distant Has it not been fully repaired after such a long time?

That's not right. How did the old man become a professor and president? He can't keep talking about these things every day. Could it be that he was fine before but now has Alzheimer's disease?
Pleasant's thoughts were getting more and more sidetracked.
Vitor stood quietly on the side, listening to the conversation between the two. He was fond of the name Puluo. His mother, Mrs. Victoria, would often mention this name.
"Old man, what's wrong with you? Did you remember something unpleasant?"
The old man remained calm. He raised his head and looked at the clock hanging in the center of the hall. The hands of the clock rotated from 11 to 12 at an extremely slow speed.
.
"Hurry, soon."
"What's so fast?" Count Othelemon asked in confusion.
"He is coming soon."
"Old, what are you talking about?"
「……」
The old man ignored Count Osramon's words. He closed his eyes, and the lantern he was holding lit up with incandescent light.
"Ah."
"Is this his response? Create these soulless voids and use an illusion to recreate the banquet of the past to welcome me? What kind of stupid arrangement is this."
"Constructing a lie with hypocrisy and weaving it with despair, why should you believe the words of the devil? That little bit of greed at the beginning is the source of all tragedies. What I am carrying now is both punishment and punishment."
"The soul swallowed by sin will never recover. No one knows this better than me."
"Fake, fake, it's all fake."
The old man said something that no one could understand. He raised the incandescent lamp in his hand very high, and his clear eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of dust, adding a bit of turbidity.
Pleasant felt an extremely dangerous energy, and his body suddenly surged with unprecedented fear, as if something terrible was about to happen.
His body always reacts in advance to incoming danger, it's part of his instinct.
The aura that made him extremely frightened and uneasy didn't come from anyone around him, not Vito, nor the Ducaline Ember in front of him, but from... that lantern?
"Fake, fake, it's all fake."
The old man held up the lantern and repeated words of unknown meaning, while the incandescent fire burning in the lantern became dazzling.
"Fake...fake..."
"...Phil, follow me and burn these illusions to the ground."
As the name Field was recited from the old man's mouth, the lantern in his hand suddenly emitted an extremely shining white light. The incandescent light illuminated every corner of the hall as bright as white. This strong light almost stunned everyone present. Can't even open my eyes.
Plissen only felt a flash of white light in front of his eyes, and then there was nothing visible in his field of vision, leaving only a vast expanse of white.
"Let's see if the light of morning can clear away all sin and evil."
At the old man's hoarse voice, everyone around him except Pleasant and the other four people turned to ashes under the strong light emitted by the lantern, whether they were the servants carrying the plates, the so-called nobles, or even The man who was speaking a few dozen seconds ago, Oselemomb, turned into flying ashes all over the sky in almost an instant.
Not only the surroundings, but the magnificent Governor's Mansion also began to have cracks one after another under the strong light. Along with the collapse of something, the entire Governor's Mansion completely disappeared under the strong light, leaving only one piece. The cracked gold coin engraved with the girl's face remained in place.
