Slowly, they reached a very secluded hallway. Sasha raised her eyebrows as she appears on this hallway.
Even Sasha did not know that there exists such a hallway. The door seems to be medieval like design, with brass like material coating the door.
No, she thought to herself.
The door is made from the brass-like material. Lukas look at the room and he heaved a sigh of relief
Sasha notices this and asked him
'What are you relieved about?' Lukas did not answer her question immediately as he seems to search for something inside his pocket.
After ruffling his pocket for a few second he brought out a silver key.
Lukas then answer her question.
'I fear that the room would change position after the world expansion. Thankfully, other than the fact that the distance is very far from before, the door is still here. I guess I am not that bad with direction'
Sasha then thought of something.
'Is this the door of Anywhere Room?'
Hearing Sasha question, Lukas smirks and said
'Wouldn't you like to know?' Then chuckling he said
'Unfortunately, this is not the Anywhere Room' Then pausing for a second, he said
'Why are you so interested in where the Anywhere Room is? You don't see us peeking around the secrets of the Shadow Guards'
'Hmph' Sasha snorted.
'I fear what I don't know.' Lukas shakes his head and said
'I am weak. And so does most of the Keeper of the Palace. Most of them are kids. They work for the palace for a few seasons and after they had enough money, they could pursue their dreams outside of the Palace. As long as they do not meddle in the matters of the politics, the palace could easily let them go'
Sasha knows all about the Palace rules.
There is a reason why most of the people relegated to normal job like watering the plants in the gardens, cleaning the normal rooms, the miscellaneous jobs of the Palace are usually done by young Keeper of the Palace.
It is so that they would not get involved in something big.
The higher the position, the more you would be exposed about the machination of politics of the Central Court.
There are some secrets, that once you knew, you are trapped. For someone who did not mind this, they could strive to higher position.
Lukas for example had heard seen so many things, heard so many things and speak a lot in the court.
He had learned secrets that if revealed could bring a lot of harm and shock in the world.
He knows this. Which is why he is the Head Keeper of the Palace and given protection by Death Monarch.
If he tries to leave the Palace without the permission of Death Monarch, he would be dead before he could step one foot out of the large palace entrance gate.
But, if you only want some extra money, wanting some experience or wanting to protect oneself from the bitter life outside of the palace for a while, then it is not good to know too many secrets.
Then, you could never leave the Palace even if you wanted too.
This is why Lukas always said to the new recruits that did not have ambition to stay in the palace to practice the wisdom of the three monkeys
See nothing, hear nothing, speak nothing. It is a bit of variation of the see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil
In the court, if you guard your eyes and don't go around trying to see things that are not related to you, you will be alright.
But if you did not do this, you might get involved with something complicated.
And be careful about hearing the conversation between the minister of the court and the influential figures.
That also could land you into trouble.
And other than greeting and relaying messages, the keeper of the palace should not speak too much and don't get involved in the factional dispute of the court.
Just do your job and do not go out from the scope and responsibilities of your job and you would be fine.
That is the three wisdom if you don't want to get involved with the Palace for a long time.
Sasha snorted and then look at Lukas like she was scanning him and said.
'You are weak? I beg to differ' Sasha said. Lukas only shakes his head.
'It is not like whatever I said would convince you otherwise, right?' Sasha did not reply. She only reply with
'Do not think that I don't know that you are also snooping around' Lukas did not reply to this provocation.
He needs to give this envelope to her and see what she thought about it. He did not know whether what he is giving to her is a plot or a scheme.
But, he did not think that person means harm.
After all, that person had predicted all of this.
And that person even predicted that after Death Monarch returns, he would then return back to seclusion.
Of course, one of the prediction is made before the matter of the world expansion, just before that person leaves the Palace.
The new prediction is made after the world expansion. He got the message after he went out the Anywhere Room.
He sighed internally.
He then brought the key toward the keyhole. Sasha frowned and then said
'If this is not the door to the Anywhere Room, where would this door leads? And what kind of room you are bringing me to?'
Smiling, Lukas said
'You would understand later'
He then turned the key to the right and the brass door glowed and runes that was carved onto the door glows.
Before Lukas uses that key, no one could see these runes.
But the moment, he opens the door with the key the runes appears.
And then the runes seem to be merging with each other creating a pattern. A humming sound could be heard and Lukas pushed the door opens
The runes immediately disappear but Sasha could see it turns into a painting of a one eyed raven
Lukas went inside the room while saying
'Get in' Sasha slowly walk in to the room.
And then Lukas closed the door.
The door closed and the moment it close, the entire room seems to glow as she could see thousands of runes coming out from each surface of the inside of the room.
From the tile of the ground, to the walls of the room, runes exploded out of every part of the room, floating in the air around them
Then it overlaid with each other, stacked upon tens of thousands of runes.
Sasha knew some of the characters but as they stacked with each other, and connected with each other, these runes seems to morph to a rune that Sasha knows nothing about
Like a foreign language that she could not read or understand. Sasha did not only pay her attention to the runes, she also looks around the room.
She would not be the Nightingale if she did not have some measure of vigilance in her heart. Regardless of her trust of Lukas, it is always good to be vigilant.
It is occupational habit at this point
There is not a lot to see in the room since the room itself had not furniture. It is an empty bleak large room. A large empty room of nothing.
But this room is very extraordinary.
Sasha had senses it the moment she entered the room. Her Divine Sense seems to be constrained. This is a cage.
A cage of Divine Sense. Not only it did not allow anything to come out, it also did not allow anything to go in
This secret must be something very important for Lukas to take all this kind of measure.
No, it might not necessarily because of the secret itself. This is to hide from the Divine Sense of Death Monarch
For some reason, she was reminded of Lukas gesture before.
Death Monarch could still listen in. And now she was brought to this room and she could feel that her Divine Sense did not work in this room
How could she not see the connection between the two?
'Tch' she clicks her tongue.
She seems to once again involve herself in something very troublesome. If this was any other times, she would not be this frustrated.
But, she already had a lot of work to do.
If this keep getting out of control, it would not be surprising if she were to die of overworking. Wouldn't that be quite a joke?
Lukas heaved a sigh of relief.
He did not understand the stormy emotions that Sasha is feeling right now and how she already lamented that she probably could not take a huge break after the task given by Death Monarch is completed
Lukas brought out the envelope.
There is a quizzical expression on Sasha face as she looks at the envelope.
'Someone had left it for me. Saying that you would understand if you read the letter inside the envelope.'
'Who?'
This is the question she wanted to know. Who sent such letter? Who is capable enough to order around the Head Keeper of the Palace?
And why does it need to be so secretive?
What kind of intel in the envelop that it requires so powerful of an array runic formation to make sure no one could listen and see what they were doing?
'The Regent' Lukas answered
'Regent?' It took a few second before she understood what Lukas is saying to her.
