When Xia Ya came out of the studio again, the painting was framed in a very delicate frame and even protected by glass.

"Where do you think it is better to hang?" Xia asked Alicia.

Alicia lay on her side on the sofa, assuming the most comfortable posture, with a pair of slender feet leaning against the sofa, just like those religious paintings often painted in the Florentine school.

In fact, Xia Ya has actually painted such a painting before, but it is the kind that can only be seen by himself.

"Here." Alicia pointed to the wall opposite the sofa. You can see it when you sit on the sofa and look up.

Xia put the painting on the dining table on one side, took a hammer and nails to hit a hook on the wall, and hung the painting up.

Alicia sat on the sofa, admiring the starry sky painting with the natural light shining through the window.

"Some of them look like oil paintings drawn by children." Alicia said.

After a pause, she said, "However, if you look carefully, a child cannot draw such a picture."

"What do you think is the difference?" Xia Ya smiled.

"Color." Alicia said seriously.

Xia Ya smiled and looked at the painting with his hands on his hips, "There are many colors in this world, and there are only a few people who can combine them into the most comfortable state. And those who can express emotions through colors are even more so. A minority within a minority.”

Calcifer emerged from the stove on one side and looked at the painting curiously.

"This painting reminds me of the time when I came to this world."

Alicia nodded in approval, "It does look a bit like the universe."

At this time, Calcifer spoke.

"Char, we have arrived at the city you mentioned."

Char walked to the window on one side and looked out. The castle was parked in an uninhabited mountainous area as always.

But looking down from here, in the distance, you can see a very prosperous city with antique buildings and surging crowds.

"Is there anything special here?" Alicia said, "Why do you need to come here all the way?"

"In a few days, something will happen here that will affect the fate of the entire world." Xia Ya said, "Let's witness history."

There was a little curiosity in Alicia's eyes, "What is it?"

"You will know when the time comes." Xia Ya said.

Alicia nodded, she got off the sofa, came to Shaar's side, and looked at the city through the window.

The entire city is surrounded by mountains and hills, and the city's architecture has a very religious and cultural atmosphere, but they have seen it during their in-depth travels in Europe over the years.

Therefore, they have a normal mind towards the beautiful scenery of this city. For them, the history they can witness is the real "scenery".

Alicia didn't go to the final analysis to ask what "history" Char said.

This is the way she gets along with Xia Ya. In life, it is always interesting to leave some little surprises.

The castle stopped in this mountainous area, and a few days passed like this. The day that Xia Ya mentioned came soon.

He changed clothes with Alicia and came to the street arm in arm. The streets of this city are very lively today. The streets are crowded with people. A group of military police pulled up two cordons and cleared the street for a passage Come.

Alicia and Xia also stood aside. She asked curiously, "Is there any big shot coming today?"

Char raised his hand and pointed to the end of the street.

Several open-top classic cars were driving slowly down the street. A couple were sitting behind the classic car in front.

The man was wearing a double-breasted military uniform in line with this era. The epaulets on his shoulders and the meritorious medals on his chest showed that his identity was not simple.

He looked to be in his fifties and had an upturned mustache that was very popular in this era.

The woman on one side looks like his wife, and she looks relatively young.

There were several cars behind him, which seemed to be his guards, and there were mechas guarding him on both sides.

The mecha has four legs and walks like an iron horse. Each mecha has a driver sitting on it, with its head and shoulders exposed, like a centaur in Greek mythology.

The only weapon of this mecha is the mortar mounted on the back of the mecha. It is a reconnaissance mecha. Although the mortar can also be used for attack, it is mostly used to launch illumination bombs.

The real guard is the mecha behind him, which is the real war machine.

The mecha was taller than the roofs of some houses, and its two metal legs looked very powerful, making it look like a giant beast.

The mecha is equipped with cannons, and there are two machine guns on the nose the size of a bacon room.

The sound of the engine rumbled, and the whole ground seemed to be shaking, and thick smoke billowed from the exhaust pipe on one side.

Everyone has a little fear on their faces. Very few people here have access to such war weapons.

Seeing the arrival of the motorcade, a group of people on both sides began to cheer and shout loudly.

"Hello, Grand Duke!"

"Hello, Grand Duke!"

The middle-aged man in military uniform waved to the people around him with a smile on his face.

Xia Ya felt that they should arrange some "supports" in the crowd to enhance the atmosphere.

Suddenly, a man wearing a beret in the crowd pushed away the person in front of him and threw the official document in his hand towards the Grand Duke.

The guard who was sitting in the same car as the Grand Duke also reacted very quickly. He directly picked up the umbrella in his hand and threw it at the briefcase.

The briefcase flew towards the bottom of the car behind him.

then

"boom!!!"

A violent floor explosion followed, and the raging flames directly blew up the car behind it. However, it was not blown away due to the weight of the car itself, but the people in the car were still injured.

People around him suddenly panicked and ran away screaming.

The group of guards also became nervous. Some of the soldiers stood by the Duke's side, while others pounced directly on the young man who threw the bomb. The vehicles also accelerated and fled away from here.

Seeing the panic around him, Xia Ya pulled Alicia and left here together.

He took Alicia away from here and used teleportation magic to reach a neighborhood.

There are not many people in this block, which is relatively narrow and can barely allow a car to pass. There is a coffee shop at the end of the street and on the corner.

He took Alicia Ali to the entrance of the coffee shop, where two young people were already sitting here.

Xiaya also pulled her to sit down.

After a while, they heard the sound of a vehicle engine. At the other end of the street, the car of the archduke who had just been attacked on the main road drove into this small street, seeming to be preparing to quickly escape from the main street.

The antique car soon arrived near the coffee shop. The cars of this era were not as fast as those of later generations, and the speed of the car was not very fast.

At this moment, the two young men sitting here suddenly made a move. They loaded the Brownings in their hands and pointed them directly at the Archduke.

One of the young men was thrown to the ground by the soldiers who reacted very quickly, while the other young man successfully fired twice.

Because the distance was too close, one shot hit the archduke directly in the neck, while the other hit his wife in the chest.

The woman died on the spot. The archduke covered his neck, his eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

But soon, blood clogged his throat and he quickly lost his life.

The killer was pushed to the ground by several soldiers, but it was too late, and the couple died on the spot.

"Who are these two people?" Alicia, who had been witnessing all this from one side, asked.

"Archduke Ferdinand," Char said, "After the only son of the Austro-Hungarian Emperor, Crown Prince Rudolf, committed suicide due to mental illness in 1889, he became the heir to the throne."

"Heir to the throne?" Alicia quickly realized what Char meant by witnessing history.

He looked at the two corpses, "Will their death trigger a war?"

"A war that affects the world." Xia Ya said.
