You and me under the world tree

It's heavy, yet fast.

It finally came to Studus' side, then lowered its head.

"Sleipnir..."

Vaguely, such a voice came from the crowd.

"Oh? You look very knowledgeable."

Gently stroking the head of his beloved horse, Studus grinned.

"It is indeed the descendant of the God King's mount, but the lineage is far away. It is called 'Lisp', and it was given to me by my family."

He remembered the face of the man who spoke in the crowd.

He looks handsome, but I don't know why he was ignored before.

"What's your name?"

"Forsyte, I am now a warrior under the lord's command."

Chapter 54: He is kind to me

Soon, the meeting came to fruition.

Altwin and Walter will be responsible for the internal affairs of the Grimes region.

The nature represented by Altwin is the city bestowed by God.

In other words, he is the messenger of Princess Dietrich.

And Walter's identity is the lord of the Grimes area.

However, this lord status was canonized by the so-called regent Elmrich who was not recognized by the city of heaven.

Also because of the conflict of camps and positions, and the fact that the one who asked for help was Walter himself from the Frontier Legion, there was bound to be an exchange of benefits.

However, this kind of exchange only needs the presence of two people who can represent the respective positions of both parties.

Therefore, when Altwin and Walter occupy positions sufficient to represent the two camps, others can free up their hands.

Ilmin, the warrior who represents Walter, the Lord of Grimes.

The dragon blood warrior Studus who fought for Her Royal Highness Princess Dietrich of the Godsend City.

They took away most of the cavalry and light infantry in their respective camps. These people will serve as the second batch of support to reach the eastern defense line along the road in the Grimes area.

As for the remaining materials, they will proceed along the originally planned route.

As for why light infantry and cavalry with enough dry food are the second batch of support, it has to do with speed.

They are not the fastest.

So, who are the first batch of support?

Naturally the fastest one.

The wording might have to be corrected, though.

Not the first 'batch' of support, but the first support.

Dragon Blood Warrior Herme Studus Altwaldsen.

His speed is naturally the fastest as he rides the black steed Lips, which is said to come from the ranch of the Gitland royal family and bestowed by his father and brother.

Because the dark steed Lips is also a descendant of the eight-legged steed, it may be a little far away in terms of pedigree, but it is undoubtedly much faster than other horses.

And as a warrior with such a moving speed, after leading his legion to safely contact the lord of the Grimes area, he has no reason to continue to suppress the speed of his horse.

Race against time, he directly handed over the army to his adjutant and Irmin who represented Lord Walter.

No intention of interfering.

And that resolute efficiency made Irmin feel at a loss even now.

Even though dozens of hours have passed now, Irmin still feels confused when he looks up at the clear sky.

"This is really..."

"Mr. Stoddus is a jovial fellow, isn't he?"

Just when Irmin wanted to say something to express something, he heard the voice of his comrades who had been fighting side by side for a while.

"what……"

When Ilmin followed the sound, he saw the man named Forsyte.

The man was supposed to be Vasgenstein's guard.

However, due to personal preference, Walter decided to take the lead in occupying his hometown, so Forsyte, who served as a guard there, naturally joined Walter's army.

It was also at that time that this seemingly ordinary man began to show his talent.

He seems to have excellent strength and martial arts.

And I also have certain opinions on certain things, so I started to share some things in the army.

And it's the same now.

Ilmin was in charge of the soldiers that Walter had brought over, while Forsyte helped him with some of the work.

However, he is not without flaws.

For example, he always says something surprising from time to time.

And it doesn't matter the occasion or the time to ask some bad questions.

And more importantly, Ilmin himself always felt a subtle sense of discomfort when facing Forsyte.

But he couldn't dig out the source of this discomfort.

So it can only be blamed entirely on Forsyte's own weird behavior and his origin.

Well, wizards raised children after all.

"Yeah, it's so refreshing that I feel a little uncomfortable."

At this moment, Irmin said vaguely.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of what he had done.

Whether it was in the palace or when they met before, everything the man did highlighted his own strong personality.

It seemed that he never cared about other people's feelings.

As long as he exists and has the right to speak, he will inevitably control the situation and rhythm.

However, this strong desire for self-expression also has a certain upper limit.

What's more, he is not an idiot.

If he was stupid, he would never be entrusted with the important task by the Gothic princess.

Bold but cautious……

If he had to describe it, Irmin could only think of this word.

In Ilmin's view, his seemingly inappropriate and rude actions always played a decisive role in advancing the incident.

For example, he once rudely knocked Walter over.

If Altwin hadn't pulled him in the end and inadvertently shortened the distance between the two speakers, there would have been a lot of unnecessary polite words.

"I'm actually curious, Ilmin."

"what?"

While thinking, the soldier heard Forsyte's voice again.

"Excalibur warrior Wittig, what kind of person is he?"

I'm coming.

With that abrupt turn that Forsyte had always had.

When Forsyte's voice sounded next to his ears, Ilmin couldn't help but feel a little complicated.

Naturally, he would feel abrupt, because this kind of small talk didn't match up at all, and there wasn't even a foreshadowing.

But, come to think of it, it was the Forsyte who asked the question.

It's the Forsyte who takes it for granted that 'death is not the end'.

After fully realizing this, Irmin's mood became more complicated.

"Why did you mention him all of a sudden?"

"Just a little curious, because I've heard something about him."

Ilmin understood roughly what Forsyte said.

Even before he opened his mouth to say that specific item, Irmin felt that he had guessed almost.

Because of the current Frontier Army Commander Wittig, most people will think of the palace coup a few years ago.

"What do you think?"

"He's... an egoist?"

"Well, that's true."

"But he's in the Frontier Corps now, and he hasn't even stepped back."

"Yes."

"So why is that?"

"This question... I don't think you should ask me."

In the end, Irmin did not answer these directly.

Although he already has the answer in his heart.

However, it is not appropriate for such a topic to be discussed by a third person other than the parties concerned.

"You should ask him yourself."

Ilmin finally gave such an answer.

"Mr. Wittig's affairs are very complicated, and whether it is for me or for Walter, he is a benefactor..."

Under Forsyte's gaze, Ilmin sighed.

"Even for the soldiers of the entire frontier regiment, do you understand?"

"Just listening to what you said, I probably don't understand it."

"..."

So Forsyte is kind of annoying in that respect.

Chapter 55: Ancient Valley Trap

The Grimes area has been cleared, and reinforcements from the City of Godsend are on their way.

But support takes time.

If the eastern defense line is as stable as a mountain, then Wittig, as the commander of the legion, can calmly wait for the expected reinforcements to arrive.

But the facts are not as good as imagined, and the situation on the eastern defense line is not optimistic.

Moreover, this is already a relatively face-saving statement.

In fact, from the moment Hungary began to attack, the entire eastern defense line entered a precarious state.

Because this is completely different from the kind of tentative attack that has been experienced before.

If it was a year ago, Hungary adopted the kind of slow-moving tactics.

In more than two months, they continued to drive the monsters westward, and used the beasts to slowly consume the reserves of the frontier army.

But now, the tactics of the nomadic empire have changed.

Although it is also a strategy to drive away monsters, it feels much stronger than before in terms of number and strength.
