I, the Lord of the End

Chapter 91, The Road to Schönbrunn Palace
Contrary to the plan, Sid and Celeste stayed in Deep Creek Town for a day and two nights.

Originally, they planned to leave for Schönbrunn Palace the next day, but they got up late on the second day, and there was a snowstorm outside. Snowflakes like a waterfall surrounded the window with a bitter icy wind, dyeing the sky and the earth completely. became pure white.

This kind of weather is really not suitable for traveling, and the hotel owner also urged Sid and Celeste to take another day off.

Sid also wanted to leave as soon as possible. After all, there were always people chasing them, but the weather was really bad, so he had no choice but to agree to stay in Deep Creek Town for another day.

For the whole day, due to the heavy snowfall, Sid and Celeste basically didn't go anywhere. She was always clinging to Sid, even leaning on him for meals.

On the morning of the third day, when the storm died down, Sid immediately decided to leave.

Early in the morning, Sid got up to practice his sword. He stood at the door of the hotel, practicing the brand new sword technique "Black Eagle Sword Technique".

The black eagle swordsmanship is the royal swift swordsmanship that Celeste just taught him. This swordsmanship was originally only allowed to be learned by the royal family. After the two had a wonderful night, Celeste passed the swordsmanship book to Sid , as a royal warlord, Celesty prefers to fight with a powerful armor-piercing tomahawk or hammer. In her opinion, the swift sword is suitable for duels, not for the battlefield.

From a certain point of view, Sid admitted that she was right. As his strength became stronger, the disadvantages of the swift sword, a light and easy-to-use weapon, became more and more obvious. It was weak against heavy armor and unable to block heavy weapons. .

However, he didn't plan to change the weapon for the time being. He wanted to wait until this incident was over. Moreover, although the Swift Sword had various shortcomings, it also had many advantages. It was easy to carry, easy to use, and light in weight.

He is slowly practicing the black eagle swordsmanship. Yes, many specialties allow Sid to quickly master skills. The proficiency of combat skills still requires him to master through a lot of practice and actual combat experience. Combat skills need him to sharpen a little bit. Come out, there are no shortcuts.

Unless he kills a swift sword master and absorbs the opponent's essence through the Holy Grail of Sin, this swift sword master is not only close to Sid in stature, age and basic sword skills, but also preferably has a career as a wanderer or ranger .

Otherwise, too much information will confuse Sid's cognition. It's better for him to practice more by himself. After the foundation is laid, he can learn from other people's experience and master it by himself.

Sid is not a rash and impulsive person, he is not even a guy who likes to use force at will. If he is going to use force, it must achieve some purpose.

So he needs more preparation, more practice.

It took Sid about 10 minutes to practice the black eagle sword technique completely in the wolf snow town in winter. His movements were slow and stiff at the beginning, but as time went by, he gradually became proficient. The eternal god of the ring god, Sid's comprehension ability cannot be said to be extraordinary, it can only be said to be the best in the world.

With a little practice, Sid found that the royal swordsmanship of the black eagle swordsmanship is actually not that practical. Compared with killing people, this set of swordsmanship emphasizes being handsome and heroic, cool and sharp, and putting on cool poses. Some of them are unnecessary Extra moves, but what Sid wants is a murderous swordsmanship that can pick up the opponent's eyeballs and split the opponent's head quickly.

However, even so, the practicality of the black eagle swordsmanship still far surpassed all the swift swordsmanship that Sid had learned before. Sid knew that if he could fully master it, then his strength would be improved to a higher level.

Now Sid's strength is almost as follows:
The beginning of the hero level.

Occupation: Warrior Advanced Assassin Executioner.

Canonical Feats: Eye of the Falcon, Mark of Hate, Eye of the Storm.

Hero Feat: Temporarily Vacant

Skills to master: Basic Swift Swordsmanship, Reverse, Spiral Thrust, Shadow of the Mountain, Breaking Shadow Strike (Power of Destruction + Shadow Contract), Assassin Assassination, Black Eagle Swordsmanship (preliminary).

Possess artifacts: Holy Grail of Nightmare, Tears of Angels (to be chosen).

Possesses the imprint: Eternal God's Chosen Mark.

The power of imperial blood sublimation: lasts for 3 minutes, and the physique within the activation time is comparable to a legend.

Practicing swordsmanship in front of the hotel early in the morning, Sid naturally attracted a large number of people to watch, including young men and women in the city, as well as many children. Their small eyes were full of admiration and they stared at Sid wholeheartedly. Don't want to miss any of his actions.

There is no nine-year compulsory education in this world. Common people, especially those from low-class backgrounds, find it extremely difficult to learn something. Seeing that Sid did not stop them from watching, more and more people watched.

Among them, the attention of the men was focused on the sword skills that Sid showed, while the eyes of the ladies were around Sid's body.

In the cold weather, Sid was only wearing tight short-sleeves. Under his thin body, the steel-like streamlined muscles were outlined by the tight clothes, full of masculine beauty, and he possessed himself in every gesture. Unique chic temperament.

This is a world where the strong are respected. There are quite a lot of professionals with that kind of giant bear-level muscles, and everyone has long been familiar with it, but such well-proportioned and coordinated professionals like Sid are very rare. Unlike many fighters who make their muscles into meaty balls like giant bears and bulls, they have developed small and lean muscles to attach to the surface of the body.

People with knowledge understand that being able to train their body like this is definitely a master among masters!
This guy is really popular.

Celeste, who was only wearing a thin silk nightdress with suspenders, poked her head out of the window and looked at Sid who was surrounded heavily. With the guidance of the "Master", Celesty even felt a little bit of joy.

It was only a small moment of complacency, and what happened next caused Celesty's face to change slightly.

I saw the coquettish hotel proprietress coming out of the hotel with her daughter, she came to Sid with a basin of hot water, the hospitality on her face could be felt even by Celeste who was watching from the second floor, the proprietress After taking the towel, she was about to wipe off Sid's sweat. The proactive attitude really made the princess feel strongly uncomfortable.

This guy is so dishonest that he even wants to seduce old women?
Uh, he doesn't seem to be actively seducing, but passively seduce?
That's not allowed, it's not allowed!Absolutely not allowed!

When she saw the proprietress' daughter bringing a plate of bread, the princess finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Sid?" She used a little bit of the power of "Black Eagle's Roar", which instantly shocked everyone present. The strong sound wave impact not only made the heads of the young men and women around the open space in front of the hotel go numb, but even The snow on the eaves of the hotel was shaken and fell off: "Come up, I have something to tell you."

"Okay." Sid put away his weapon and returned to the hotel, leaving behind the disappointed male professionals and even more disappointed ladies.

They missed a great opportunity.

10 minutes later, in the luxury suite.

Celeste has already changed into her daily military uniform of the imperial concubine. She is sitting on the bed with her pink lips painted brightly, she lifts her neck slightly, her white eyebrows are as tall and slender as the skyline, and her purple eyes flash with strong affection and after being moisturized. She is moist and lustrous, her silver-white waist-length hair is elegantly pulled into a princess bun, her expression is lazy and relaxed, she is sitting on the bed with a pair of beautiful legs crossed and raised, wearing a pair of gray velvet matte pantyhose Sid's beautiful feet were placed in Sid's hands, and he asked him to straighten the wrinkles in his stockings and put his boots on.

Sid slowly helped the princess smooth out the wrinkles on the gray matte pantyhose, not letting go of any detail, checking it over and over again, very dedicated, just a model among the servants.

The princess has a pair of beautiful long legs. Her height of 1.7 meters and her fit and slender figure make her legs and feet without any flaws. The small gray silk feet in Sid's hands have beautiful arches and slender feet. The toes, painted with light red nail polish, are wrapped in fine and smooth gray silk, just because the owner's movements reveal a faint color.

Feeling the soles and backs of the feet wrapped in silk stockings being held by Sid's hands, and feeling the temperature from his big hands, Celesty's face turned red and she said softly, "When are you going to leave?"

"Pack up, we're about to go." Sid kissed the princess's toes lightly, and then helped Celesty put on her short boots, which he was happy to do: "Don't relax, we might There will be enemies along the way."

"I know." Celeste was naturally mentally prepared, but she quickly shook her head again: "However, the closer you are to Schönbrunn Palace, the safer you are. You should know this better than me."

"You are right, but the so-called safety refers to the fact that we are safe when we cross the glacial river." Sid narrowed his eyes: "Only by crossing the glacial river does it mean that we have truly entered the protection area of ​​the great priest." Inside."

"It's a pity, let's choose another time to be together later." Celesty looked at the big bed behind her with some reluctance. The past two days really left her with many good memories: "Now it's important."

The muscles on Sid's face twitched a few times, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, I want to see you in white."

"Do you like white?" Of course the princess knew what Sid meant, she paused for a moment and blushed, "I thought you preferred black or gray...but if you want to see..."

"I like them all. As long as you wear them, I like them all." Sid started talking flirtatiously again, and he said seriously to the princess: "The important thing is you, not the silk stockings, my lord."

Even though she knew that it was Sid's coquettish words, Celesty was very useful. The princess directly pulled him over and kissed him hard. She had learned a lot from Sid in the past two days.

After 2 minutes, the satisfied Celeste let go of Sid.

"set off!"

……… I am the dividing line of departure………

Plunging headlong into the snow-covered Black Forest, passing through Lenzburg, passing through the rock climbing cliff, passing through the small town of Parker, and crossing the border checkpoint relying on the shadow of the mountain.

Sid and Celeste are both strong heroes. They walked very fast, and they walked more than 30 kilometers in four hours.

Winter in the Black Forest is beautiful. The proud cedars are covered with a thin layer of hoarfrost, which turns the forest gray-white. In the distance, the majestic Julian Mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, which is difficult for even the best-sighted ranger to penetrate. When Yunwu sees the true face of the mountain, everything seems to be covered with a layer of white veil, looming.

As soon as he left the town, Sid's vigilance increased significantly. Schönbrunn Palace was less than a hundred kilometers away, and he didn't want to have an accident on the final journey.

Although Celeste has also increased her vigilance, the princess still likes to stick with Sid. This time, her mood has undergone many major changes, from the irritability and depression at the beginning to the joy and worry in the middle After tangling back and forth and now refreshed, holding hands with Sid and chatting in the snow-capped virgin forest, Celesty occasionally thinks that it would be great if this journey would not end?

On the way, Celeste once again tested whether Sid would marry her and change her surname to Hohenzollern. She said that she was 120% sure that she could convince her father, but Sid still refused.

Above friends, not lovers.

As long as two people can't agree on this issue, the relationship between them will never go further.

After walking for eight or nine hours, the sky gradually began to darken, and they also approached the nearest town of Groderswil, which is only 32 kilometers away from Schönbrunn Palace.

After all, Celeste is the Imperial Warlord, and her speed is a little slower than Sid's, and Sid also needs some time to scout the nearby area, so they plan to stay overnight in the small town of Grodesville.

"It's so lively." What made Celesty interesting was that in the cold weather where the temperature was low and snow was floating outside, the closer the two of them got to the small town of Grodesville, the more people would flow there. Before they crossed the wolf border, they hardly saw any travelers along the way, but when they arrived near Grodesville, travelers could be seen everywhere on the road. stop them.

After only walking a few hundred meters, Celeste saw hundreds of travelers, but it seemed that many of them were not adventurers, or even professionals.

"It's very lively. Guess what they're here for?" Sid couldn't help laughing as he watched the flow of people.

"This place must be here to pay homage to His Majesty the High Priest, right?" Celeste took Sid's arm and gave her guess: "Every year on December 12th, the High Priest's birthday, His Majesty Cecilia It is to order some pastries and liqueurs to be distributed, and occasionally to show up in person."

Since Cecilia returned from the void, the Holy Empire immediately legislated and stipulated that December 12th should be a legal holiday every year, and it was also named "Madeleine's Immaculate Return Day".

"Yes, and no." Sid nodded slightly: "It is true that these people came here because of the High Priest, but basically they are not for the pastries and liqueur, but for the opportunity to speak to the High Priest. story."

Sid took a short cut through the forest so no one would recognize them.

"The vast majority of people who come here have their own story to tell, but unfortunately those who are willing to listen are often helpless, while those who are capable are not only unwilling to listen, but may even shut them up forever." Sid said meaningfully He smiled and said: "In the entire Holy Empire, there is only one person who can uphold justice for them, and that is His Majesty the High Priest Cecilia."

"Even I thought about giving it a try to see if His Majesty Cecilia would like to hear my story, but my story is really insignificant compared to others."

Celeste pursed her lips, how could the princess not understand Sid's meaning?

At this moment, Sid's strength came from the interlocking hands of the two, and the princess squatted down and leaned against him habitually: "What's wrong?"

"There is a battle nearby!" Sid reached out and grabbed a rag from a branch. He put it under his nose and smelled it, then shortly used the Falcon Eye to check the nearby footprints: "The battle that happened three hours ago .”

Sid continued to check the footprints. He stretched out his hand to push away the snow, and he saw a light red: "It's blood!"

There are at least 30 people on both sides, and one group should be chasing the other.

"We shouldn't get involved in this battle." Celeste didn't understand these things, and her opinion was to avoid them. Battles in this world are really common, especially in the black forest in the countryside.

Sid didn't answer, he continued to lead the princess forward, and Celeste had to follow him.

Sure enough, after advancing for about a kilometer, a confrontation was taking place in the depths of the Black Forest.

A group of light elf wizards used a magic circle to guard a very young light elf nobleman, and around them was a large group of gnolls who succumbed to the devil, and they were besieging the light elves under the command of a red-haired young man.

Red-haired youth!The faces of Sid and Celesty immediately darkened.

"Didn't I kill him?" Celeste looked puzzled, but the princess had already reached out to her golden battle axe.

"Some people, killing once is not enough." Sid smiled on his face, but his voice was extremely cold: "It's enough to kill a few more times."

"But before I do that, I'd love to know what was the rationale for this attack."

"Your Highness, would you like to kill dozens of people with me and get a treasure by the way?"

"Of course, I'd be very happy, especially with you." The imperial daughter took the initiative to kiss Sid on the lips, and she was full of interest: "Do it directly?"

"No, my lord, if you want to be an excellent hunter, you must first be patient." Sid hugged the princess and leaned against the big tree, and the shadow of the mountain was activated.

Yes, to be an excellent hunter, you really need patience. Celeste leaned on Sid and looked at him greedily.

I've learned something from you again, mentor.
