After a night of tenderness with his wife, the next morning, after much thought, Soshyan came to the door of Elena's mansion.
The three major mysteries about him, Xerxes, Asuryan, and the Immortal Starfall, the latter two need to be solved through other channels, and for the former, the fastest way is the wife of the former original body, but Soshyan has always been very The reason for having less contact with Elena was because of this problem. Sometimes he didn't know how to face the wife of Xerxes.
But after learning so much during this trip to Terra, he had to explain some of the situation to the other party seriously.
Of course, he also knew that Elena might not always tell the truth, but at least he could understand some details.
"Chapter Commander, Madam is already waiting for you."
As the door opened, Soshyan nodded, followed the maid serving Elena into this cozy little palace, passed through the main hall and came to the living room on the side.
Elena, who was dressed in mourning clothes, sat on the white sofa, lowered her head slightly, and looked at a delicate armband held in both hands. It was golden in color and shaped like an apple that had been hollowed out from the middle. It was very In particular, the outer ring is polished to be quite rounded, and the design is also very curved. In addition, its surface is engraved with many strange patterns, and the closed part is carved with a winged and horned half-griffon and half-vulture using hollow craftsmanship. Monsters, they sit opposite each other, with their horns and wings flying, their expressions sharp, their eyes bright, and their wings are embedded with colorful tiny gems.
At this time, Elena was like a noble lady in a lonely castle, waiting for her husband who would never come back after going off to war. The tight-fitting black dress in mourning set off her frosty expression. With her eyes, it seemed that no matter who came close, they could always feel her indifferent temperament. In stark contrast, her skin was as white as snow, and her long hair was tied behind her head, revealing her equally white neck.
When the maids slowly closed the door, the atmosphere in the living room fell into a strange silence. Soshiyang stood at the door for a moment and didn't know what to say. Elena just lowered her head and lowered her eyebrows, her fair face full of expression. It was sad, staring at the clever handicraft in his hand, his thumb slowly sliding on the buckle.
After a long time, Soshyan finally decided to take the initiative. He took a step forward and said:
"Ellen——"
"Life is sometimes sad and sometimes happy. It's like having three clothes in his life."
Elena suddenly interrupted Soshyan. She recited a short poem in a strange accent but sad tone that Soshyan could understand.
"One piece was stained with blood by conspiracy, the other was torn into pieces by enchantment, and the third piece healed Sky's blind eyes. My face is like his first piece of clothing, and my heart is like the second piece. .I hope my destiny is to get the third one."
Soshyan sighed softly and said slowly:
"I went to his room in the palace."
Elena did not raise her head, still staring at the armband, and whispered in a sleepy tone:
"The first time I went to that world, the so-called heart of the human empire, I was as nervous as a chick leaving the nest for the first time. He kept comforting me and said that there was nothing to be afraid of. As long as I was by his side, I would be safe anywhere in the galaxy. It is safe. When I saw the magnificent building complex standing on the top of the mountains, my first feeling was why the Lord of the Stars built such a huge and luxurious palace. He told me that this was not just a palace. , is also a laboratory, a prison, a temple where many secrets are born and destroyed. In the depths of the palace, he saw his god-like father for the first time, and I also saw the Lord of the stars for the first time, but In fact, I didn’t see anything. I was so scared. He asked me my name. I could feel that He was a little displeased. Maybe He thought that I had taken away part of His son’s heart.”
"Queen Elena, didn't the Emperor go to Ctesiphon to meet the Primarch? Did the Primarch go to Terra to meet the Emperor?"
Elena, who was interrupted, finally raised her head.
"He never came. It was the Legion that found us. After that, His Majesty took me to Terra to see Him."
According to records, except for a few primarchs, most of the primarchs were recovered by the Emperor himself. So why didn't he go to find Xerxes himself?
But I’m sure I can’t ask these questions from Elena.
"Queen Elena."
Soshyan's tone became very solemn.
"I met a man who claimed to be a mortal. I believe he was once a part of the Emperor. He told me a lot about the Gray Marrow and the Primarch, and the general process of the entire plan. I don't know if you I understand the inside story, but I believe that your appearance is no accident. I guess you must be waiting for Xerxes to come back, Queen Elena. I can't make any guarantees, but I will make the judgment and choice I think is right. , hope you can understand."
Elena suddenly shook her head and said in a somewhat excited tone:
"Don't take that man's word for it."
Soshyan was stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized who the "that person" the other party was referring to was.
"Why? Doesn't He also agree with Xerxes' plan to return?"
Elena's expression suddenly changed, filled with resentment and pain, and she held the armband tightly with both hands, so hard that her knuckles turned white.
"Liar. He is a complete liar! He is also a tyrant who thirsts for power! He never wanted to resurrect his son. All he wanted was this body. He has been like this from the beginning!"
Although Elena didn't reveal much, Soshiyang could hear the deep resentment, which was a kind of hatred from the heart.
But this is not the point. Soshyan immediately asked:
"Then Queen Elena, how much have you hidden from me?"
Elena's shoulders were stiff for a moment, then she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, and finally said slowly:
"Sorry, Soshyan, I didn't want to hide it from you from the beginning, but I had to cooperate with those people in Malcador, otherwise I would have no chance to meet you. Their eyes and ears are everywhere, and I I can only hide something from you."
"What now?"
Elena was speechless.
Soshyan shook his head.
"Queen Elena, I have said that I will make what I think is the correct judgment, otherwise no one can force me. I believe you should already know the relationship between me and Veronica."
Hearing Veronica, Elena's hands clasped together suddenly became harder, but there was no expression on her face.
"I have no intention of irritating you, Queen Elena. I just hope you can understand that when one person becomes another person, it is not just one person who is sacrificed, but many people will be hurt. I admit that I also have selfish motives. I love Veronica. If she is in pain and sadness, I will be heartbroken. If I have to leave her forever, I will also feel sad. I also have brothers who are beyond blood, and those who I have watched with my own eyes. The children have grown into champion warriors, and I can’t let go of them either.”
Elena suddenly turned her head, covered her mouth, and sobbed softly.
