After that, Rozen no longer wandered around, but returned to the palace.
This place had become the palace of Altoria Alter, the King of the mountain people. However, it was not only Altoria who lived here. Including Rozen, Matthew, Serenity, Bedivere, and other servants had also been arranged to live here. Even Jeanne d 'Arc was arranged to live here. It was just that, whether she would come to live here or not was still unknown.
Originally, there should be more people living here, but due to management and status issues, it was estimated that from now on, in addition to Rozen, only servants could live here.
Of course, Altoria Alter was the master of this place.
It should be said that it was originally Altoria's request for Rozen to build this place, so it was natural for her to occupy it.
Now, Rozen had returned here, but before he returned to his room, he met the master of this place.
"You're back early. I thought it would take you more time to solve the problem of those girls."
The person who said such a sentence and slowly walked out from the corridor in front of him was Altoria Alter.
Altoria Alter's pair of pale golden eyes stared straight at Rozen, as if she had seen through his previous actions.
Rozen stopped, looked at Altoria Alter, and touched his nose.
"You know all about it?"
Rozen shrugged and asked.
"After all, I am the King. It is my duty to perfectly and reasonably grasp the state of all the effective forces and the movement of the people."
Altoria Alter said these words as if it was a matter of course.
"What about yourself?" Rozen said with a profound meaning, "Have you adjusted your state?"
Upon hearing this sentence, Altoria raised her eyebrows.
"Whoa …" Altoria narrowed her eyes, as if calculating which part of Rozen she should cut off, and then said, "It seems that Bedivere has said some boring gossip to you."
This Knight King's intuition was really keen. She could guess everything.
What's more, Altoria Alter said this.
"No matter what Bedivere has said to you, I advise you not to take it to heart."
Altoria Alter seemed to be talking about other people's business.
"Why?"
Rozen just asked.
"It's very simple." "Because the King Arthur he mentioned is not me. Even if it was me in the past, it is not the current me." Altoria said faintly.
Isn't this normal?
"Perhaps the Knight Bedivere does know King Arthur very well, he knows Altoria Pandaragon very well, but he knows the King in his normal state, not me who has fallen into the darkness and put myself on the side of evil."
Altoria Alter said such words in an unquestionable tone.
"Then when you punished the Knights of the Round Table, didn't you feel uncomfortable at all?"
Rozen no longer tried to be secretive and directly asked.
"No." Altoria Alter replied without the slightest hesitation, "Since the Knights of the Round Table have fallen, then it is my task to punish them. They should have such an end, which is not worthy of anyone's remembrance, including me."
Altoria Alter's words seemed quite ruthless.
"What about you?" As if arguing with Altoria, Rozen said, "You have also fallen, haven't you?"
Upon hearing this, Altoria Alter denied Rozen's statement.
"Although I have fallen into the darkness, it is for the sake of order. My attribute is evil, but it is not really evil."
Altoria Alter was not defending herself, but it was indeed so.
This could also be seen from Altoria Alter's attribute.
The attribute of a follower represented their own standpoint and spirit.
'Order' affirms society, affirms public rules, and agrees with the view that a small number of innocent people can be sacrificed for the sake of the greater order. Therefore, their obedience to the master is relatively high. Even if the master's action violates their own philosophy, in some cases, they can still accept it.
'Chaos' negates society, negates public rules, or is instead negated by society and public rules, but it is not necessarily evil.
'Neutral' means that they do not appear to be active toward society and public rules.
Then, based on the above three standpoints, the followers are divided into 'good', 'evil', and 'moderate'.
'Good' means that they have their own principles and conscientiously abide by them. Most of them have the tendency to protect specific people, ideas, and so on.
'Evil' means that they simply have desires, and generally have no specific behavior and ideals. They act according to their whims, and some may even take bloody actions.
'Moderate' means that they are not biased toward either side, and will not actively protect anything, nor will they deliberately abandon anything.
In addition, there are special cases of 'madness', which refers to the existence that loses its personality due to madness.
The followers all have the above-mentioned mentioned attributes, which proves their standpoint and concept.
And the attribute of Altoria Alter is – 'Order – Evil'.
In other words, she will identify with society, civilization, and the existence of the world, and her principle of conduct is ultimately to protect these existences.
However, the evil attribute also shows that Altoria Alter will not rigidly adhere to specific behavior and ideals. As long as it is to protect the stability of order, it is permissible for her to stain her hands with blood.
Under normal circumstances, Altoria's attribute should be – 'Order – Good'.
Therefore, as Altoria Alter said, the fair, honest, and silently shouldering everything king in Bedivere's mouth may not be suitable for her.
Of course …
"You are, after all, the same existence."
Rozen looked straight at Altoria Alter and said.
"Even if you have become ruthless and completely different from when you were alive, you are still King Arthur. The most fundamental thing will not change, and the purpose and ideal itself will not change."
Therefore, the person who was recognized by Altoria would still be recognized by Altoria Alter. The person who was regarded as an important person by Altoria would also be an important person to Altoria.
Then …
"Even if you know that the depraved Round Table should be punished, and this is not wrong, who said that if you do the right thing, you can't be sad, can't be heartache?"
Rozen refuted Altoria Alter's statement.
This time, Altoria Alter no longer denied it.
Then …
"Your eloquence is not bad. It seems that you are suitable to be a judge or an interrogator." Altoria Alter coldly snorted and said, "When you are in front of the Lion King, I hope you can also teach her a lesson like this."
Leaving such words, Altoria Alter turned and left.
Only Rozen was left alone with a smile.
