You and me under the world tree

Not fear, just contemplation.

"The gods favor the Hengding family, but the Hengding family is weak and incompetent, leading to the decline of the Netherlands. Isn't this the best comparison?"

Finally, the woman sighed.

"So, it has never been the gods who brought us stability and peace, but our king. Even in the Netherlands, isn't the king who controls the plague? Did the gods take action?"

No.

Everyone knows that the gods have never performed miracles.

But their lives still have to go on.

"I feel very stupid, since the gods have never given help, why should I pray."

"Are you disrespecting the gods?"

Suddenly, the man who had been incoherent before spoke.

"So what about respect, and what about disrespect?"

"Are you not afraid of God's punishment?"

"Fear, but can fear solve these problems? If someone threatens you, are you going to lick his shoes?"

Then, the woman just stretched out her legs.

"Come on, now lick my shoes, or I'll beat you! But you lick, and you can go on with your peaceful life."

Then, the man's face turned red.

"You don't want to, don't you?"

"Isn't that a little too much?"

Finally, someone beside him couldn't help but speak.

"Where is it too much? Isn't this the situation we are in now? You are willing to worship the gods, but you are not willing to lick my shoes. What makes you disrespect me so much?"

This woman is really too much.

"Guards! Someone here is making trouble for no reason!"

Finally, someone started calling out to the guards.

And as the sound grew louder, a burst of chaos broke out in the city.

After hearing the shouts in the chaos, the guard who was quite happy at first couldn't help but frowned.

In fact, it is not that there have been conflicts in Bean City.

After all, people living here have seven emotions and six desires, and having desires means having benefits.

It's normal to have quarrels, fights, etc. sometimes.

But what time is it now?

Now is the time for their great princess to be crowned triumphant king.

Even if the part of offering sacrifices to the gods is omitted, there is still a tradition of 'king's parade' that must be fulfilled.

Everyone is looking forward to the perfect ending of this enthronement ceremony.

And at this juncture, what do you want to do when you suddenly make a noise? !

"what is the problem!"

A patrol captain asked suddenly.

"It's because of His Majesty, they are now..."

"What are you doing?"

"The need to question the gods."

"what?"

Chapter 20: A Little Storm

gods.

To be honest, it has been a long time since a similar sound has appeared in the land of the city of heaven.

And the last person who mentioned the so-called gods and the so-called godsend in a fair manner was Sifka who initiated the palace coup.

But at that time, he mentioned this openly in the ancient capital Ravenna.

As for Bei'an City, I can only say that one should not underestimate the influence of a powerful princess herself.

In fact, no one would mention the so-called "miracle" too much about the land that is directly governed by Her Royal Highness and centered on Bei'an City.

The last time this was mentioned aboveboard was more than 20 years ago.

At that time, their princess, Dietrich, who was called the prince at that time, had just been born, and this fortress city suddenly appeared here.

But that period didn't last long either.

In the final analysis, it is because those are too far away from them.

No matter what moment you look at, the high gods are actually very far away.

And most people's perception of them is the various statues in the temple, and the priests who work in the temple and act in the name of gods.

But unfortunately, there are no temples around Beian City.

As for the reason, of course it is because of the geographical environment here itself.

The location of Bei'an City is the border.

Before this city appeared, there were only a few scattered villages and a large number of forts and fortresses nearby.

Because of the strong attitude of never forming an alliance shown by Siegmund, the former hero of all armies.

This had to make King Dietmar take extra precautions against the enemies from the west.

The terrain of the Gothic Kingdom tends to be plain.

Without occupying the Jura Mountains at the beginning, but fearing Siegmund who once invaded the Gothic hinterland, the western defense line could not be calm.

Everything is based on war.

Guarded yet fearful.

That was the state at the time.

And no matter whether it is any lord or king, they will never make such a land that is about to break out in war, or even have to cede it in the worst case, to become an important place for priests.

Otherwise, it would be equivalent to handing over the temple or something to someone else.

This is so stupid.

But later on, when the so-called Victorious Prince Dietrich was born and swept all directions with a strong attitude, nothing about the gods was mentioned here.

In the beginning, it was because she herself had the status of a 'son of heaven'.

In other words, as long as she is there, no one will

Almost everyone knew that this princess didn't care about the will of the so-called gods.

When attacking the Netherlands, the long-lost Valkyrie appeared, but she was on the side of the Hengding clan.

They played the banner of a truce, hoping to ensure the territorial integrity of the Netherlands through other means of financial compensation.

As we all know, the Valkyries walking on the earth represent the will of the gods.

In other words, at that time, the gods were clearly biased towards Legni of the Hengding family.

After coming and going, the will of the gods is clearly against human beings.

Under such circumstances, the Gothic people, especially the people under the rule of Her Royal Highness, feared God more than worshiped God.

And these patrol guards and city defense officers of Bei'an City have a deeper understanding of this point.

"No matter what you say, make them quiet."

After hesitating for a moment, the captain in armor said so.

"If they continue to make trouble, let them go to jail for a few days."

No charges were brought down, they just dealt with it like this.

Then, soon a soldier beside him ran out.

'click'

'click'

'click'

When the metal boots reverberated on the ground, the captain vaguely felt something was wrong.

Not even a single response?

But when he looked at the guard, he didn't notice any problem.

He was wearing the standard armor of a guard.

"Recruit, I don't know the rules."

In the end, the patrol captain didn't care too much.

And the inexplicable quarrel that took place between the man and the woman was not a riot.

The people almost all focused their attention on the triumphant king who was about to start the parade.

As for the previous quarrel, some people knew about it, and soon, they were captured by a guard who arrived in time without saying a word.

As the patrol captain said, they were quickly thrown into prison.

In that prison, the man and woman who had been arguing and shouting quickly glanced around.

Then, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your acting skills are too stupid."

Immediately afterwards, the doubt and bewilderment on the face of that seemingly ordinary man quickly faded away.

The whole expression looked extremely helpless.

However, this kind of helplessness seemed a little mocking in the woman's eyes.

"Didn't you say try to make it bigger?"

"I didn't let you make such a big fuss. In the end, everyone around me intervened, causing chaos and throwing us into the prison."

With these words, the illusion gradually dissipated.

The simple man was dressed in a black robe at the moment, completely dressed like a traveling wizard.

He is Howard.

As for the woman, she is dressed in adventurous clothes, which is very different from the previous image of a simple woman.

She is more beautiful.

Naturally, it is also stronger.

She is Hella.

“I also thought those people would echo that.”

Rubbing her shoulders, Hela, who had recovered her original shape, couldn't help but speak.

"I ended up pissing them off."

Speaking of this, she was a little unhappy.

"But you judge, are what I said wrong?"

After hearing Hella's complaint, Huo De couldn't help shaking his head.

"That's why I let you do a little less work. Human beings' impressions and concepts of the gods have been completely engraved deep in their hearts. Maybe they no longer respect them, but they will be afraid, and because of fear, they dare not speak about it. any opinion."

"So pretend you can't see it?"

"Of course, it's easy for human beings to be cowards. As long as there is no accident around them...even if they don't have accidents, they can always pretend that nothing happened. When Siegfried first ascended the throne, he said that he should organize wars as much as possible and bring about eternal wars. The peace of the world has not aroused much cheer and resonance."
