"I really didn't expect that the second prince was so shy when he was young, and the eldest princess was so introverted."

Yin En raised his eyebrows. He had a vague guess in his mind, but he didn't dare to confirm it: "It's just that things will change as you grow up. It's normal for you to be poor at talking when you're young and suddenly talkative when you grow up."

"As for Your Majesty... I'm not surprised what he has become after experiencing the Dark Moon turmoil. It would be better to say..."

After a slight pause, Yin En said softly: "I think he is doing very well as he is now."

"Um."

Marquis Barton nodded slightly. He did not comment on Yin En's words, but said dryly: "You are right, everything is normal - except for me."

"In addition to watching the growth of princes and princesses since childhood, I even often take photos of them."

Taking a deep breath, Marquis Barton said in a deep voice: "Yin En, you are a prophet. You have passed all my tests, which proves that you are also an excellent sublimator."

"you are crazy."

"So you must understand that all the powerful sublimators on this land are madmen."

"And the Setar royal family... is one of the craziest people."

"Yes, you are right. Adults will change as they grow up. The happy family in the past will fight each other. The shy and timid second prince will become brave and resolute. The eldest princess with social anxiety may also become

Becoming the Iron-Blooded Valkyrie."

"But Yin En, what if I told you that all this change only took one month?"

Yin En remained silent.

After learning that Marquis Barton actually had childhood photos of Axel and the princes and princesses, Yin En knew that he had misjudged the importance of Marquis Barton.

Obviously, the Marquis of Barton back then was definitely Axel's confidant, and he was even simply the kind of 'knight' or 'personal retinue' who stayed with him and had no official position but lived together with him.

And the other party also has a very deep understanding of the princes.

"The eldest prince Carlos was born during the time when His Majesty was still training troops in the East before he ascended the throne."

Marquis Barton calmly spoke in his office about some secrets that only he and the person involved knew: "As you can see, the eldest prince is a cheerful and thoughtful person, but he doesn't mind showing sincerity to the people he likes -

This kind of character is the most common character of the Setar royal family, and it is also proof of healthy growth."

"And other princes and princesses have more or less personality problems."

"But in fact, the eldest prince is not like His Majesty, and other princes and princesses with defects are more similar."

Sitting on his armchair, Marquis Barton looked at Yin En with his golden-green eyes. He said calmly: "Because some of their characters are similar to 'His Majesty Axel' when he was young."

"ah?"

Hearing this, Yin En was stunned: "Sir, what do you mean..."

"right."

Marquis Barton said: "His Majesty Axel back then was an autistic, socially anxious, shy, and slightly neurotic boy before he was eighteen years old. He liked climbing mountains more than chatting with people, and he liked riding horses more than men.

Huannuai means that only us old guys can communicate with him normally."

"Because of this, His Majesty was not regarded as a competitor for the 'Crown' at all back then. Even though he held heavy military power in the east, he was not regarded as a threat."

"It's just that one day, after His Majesty went to the Imperial Capital to pay his dues, he came back with a look of determination."

"He told me..."

"'Barton, I want to change myself. I know very clearly that my character is greedy for peace and enjoyment. I just want to stay away from the core of power and be an ordinary prince.'"

"'But I know that I can't live under the wings of my father and teacher all my life...I must become stronger and more decisive.'"

"'I have to be a beacon to others.'"

Marquis Barton said slowly: "How could I refuse at that time? I am the person who most hopes that my master can become stronger. I told him without hesitation at that time that I supported all his actions. If he wanted to

If he wants to change, I will change with him."

"No matter what he wants to do, I will be his most loyal right-hand man."

"Then, Your Majesty changed."

"He has become decisive, resolute, fierce, and has the majesty and responsibility of an emperor, without losing his tenderness as a husband and father. His Majesty Axel has become the perfect candidate for emperor in my heart."

"Then……"

The old man closed his eyes and sighed: "It's the Dark Moon turmoil."

"It is written in the history books of the Great Library, Yin En, you must know... The Dark Moon turmoil destroyed almost all the inherent power structures of the empire. It is not enough for His Majesty to move his entire Eastern team here, he must activate those

'Ordinary people' without aristocratic heritage."

"His Majesty defeated all his brothers and sisters, and eliminated all the nobles and royal bloodlines who intended to harm the empire, betray the empire, and hinder the improvement of the empire."

"Your Majesty did a very good job. It was so good that it was unbelievable. It was so good that it didn't look like him."

"Instead, it's a bit like...our pioneer emperor."

"The late Emperor Yinaga II."

Having said this, Marquis Barton also paused for a while. After a while, he shook his head and said: "Since then, strange events have happened one after another."

"The personality of the second prince and the eldest daughter, who originally had a similar personality to His Majesty's when he was young, has gradually changed in personality. She has become resolute and brave, has independent opinions and is no longer afraid of society. She is also eloquent."

"Now, do you understand why I feel weird?"

Yin En was silent.

He now not only knew why Barton told him these things, he even knew why Marquis Barton had looked at him differently from the beginning.

Because he is a descendant of the Cejalrovo family and the inheritor of ancient ruins research experts.

He is a descendant of the discoverer of the 'Law of Immortality' and a descendant of the 'Echo Discoverer'.

"what do you mean……"

After calming down, Yin En said in a deep voice: "It's an echo..."

Marquis Barton looked sideways at Yin En.

"You indeed know the way to eternal life."

He shook his head: "But it's not something as simple as an echo, Yin En... something like an echo is easy to identify, because the soul structure is easy to deteriorate, and as a method of immortality, it is not qualified at all."

"And the late Emperor... Yin En, you didn't really live in the same era as the late Emperor. If you had, you would know that he would never touch such taboos."

"However, I have to say that the late emperor did have some very strange changes before the Dark Moon Rebellion... One of the reasons why the Crown Prince launched the Dark Moon Rebellion was that Yinaga II had been possessed by an ancient evil thing. , it is indeed very convincing.”

"I even suspect that the evil thing that possessed Yinaga II was transferred to His Majesty Axel, and then part of it was transferred to the princes and princesses."

Marquis Barton took back the photo in his hand and put it in the drawer. His tone was bleak: "Of course, I also know that even as a guess, this kind of guess is too incredible and even unbelievable."

"But I really can't find any reason to explain this phenomenon."

——Yinaga II became weird most likely because of the silver chip and despair about Terra's situation, and it has nothing to do with evil spirits.

Cursing in his heart, Yin En nodded slowly: "These are all your guesses."

"And the second prince also noticed that something was wrong, so you cooperated."

"As for the eldest prince Carlos, he is the most normal one - indeed, he is indeed the one who seems to be the most affectionate among all the princes and princesses..."

After all, not any prince can easily shout "Dad, save me!" This clearly means that he truly regards himself as his son and his father as his father.

In the royal family, this kind of thing is quite rare.

Yin En now understood what Marquis Barton was thinking.

As one of Axel's most trusted people back then, and even his childhood playmate and retinue, Marquis Barton witnessed with his own eyes the strange changes in the personalities of Axel and his family.

Axel has grown from the introverted and autistic mountain climbing enthusiast to the iron-blooded emperor he is today... This is not impossible, but it is too abrupt.

Similarly, the second prince and the eldest princess also had this sudden change, and there was an obvious sense of abnormality.

even……

Yin En suddenly thought of the emperor’s eldest grandson ‘Aina Settar’.

The other party's positive energy is almost like a saint's character, which is indeed completely different from the royal children that ordinary people think of.

It’s okay that he was born like this, but what if Aina’s character also changed due to some reason?

Yin En thought of Isengard again.

At first, Yin En felt that Axel wanted to reincarnate through the blood of Isengard's 'Light Refining Dragon' - but later this possibility gradually decreased and turned into some grand mission.

Part of it is related to the Beast of Thousand Planets or Terra as a whole.

But he did remind Isengard's mother, Avelina Settar, through this.

And Avelina also reminded her brother, the second prince Mikael.

Because his wife is also of similar bloodline to the Light Eclipse Dragon, Mikael, who already has a daughter, naturally attaches great importance to this... and found the Marquis of Barton.

As soon as the intelligence from both sides was combined, both sides immediately woke up and noticed the strange personality changes in themselves.

As Yin En said, it is natural for a person's personality to change as he grows up, but if the personality change is very sudden and rapid, even if you don't feel it at first, you will notice something is wrong when you mention it later.

However, Marquis Barton himself could not guess what happened to the Setar royal family - was it a curse on the throne? Or was it the influence of the sun bird's bloodline? Or was it really the sequelae caused by some kind of immortality method, or even
