You and me under the world tree

Chapter 62: Rebuilding Self-Confidence

The banquet is still going on.

The music of the bards is still extremely melodious, and most people are immersed in this prosperous and wonderful atmosphere.

The maids walking around, serving tea and water to the soldiers and courtiers seemed a little busy.

Neither they nor the soldiers patrolling around noticed that a figure quietly shuttled back and forth, and finally came directly above the palace.

It was an unguarded place with sculptures of goshawks and sheep heads, and it was not a good place to stand.

In fact, the palace in the city of godsend has the structure of a tower.

The guards stationed in the palace are basically concentrated in the tower and pay attention to the status of the palace through the tower.

As for the roof and so on, no ordinary people would come to such a place.

After all, there are no entrances and exits on the roof itself, and there is no way to enter the palace from it.

The structure itself is not suitable for climbing, and the various domes are definitely not suitable for standing.

After all, it is one of the results of the demon Mehmet's three-day construction of the city, and this framework was built by her alone.

So there is no need to consider the rationality of whether mortals can reproduce and build.

And no one would have thought that at this time, there were really people who rebelliously stepped on the roofs that were not suitable for living on, and even regarded them as places to watch the night.

"When I starve to death, are you finally willing to come up?"

At this moment, that awkward voice echoed like this.

And when Huo De came here with the food he had brought from other people, what he saw was Hela's complaining expression.

"Why did you go so long?"

"There is a little thing."

"whats the matter?"

"Oh, just chatting with people."

Between the words, Huo De, who was standing, also sat down.

At this moment, he casually dragged out a piece of wood from the inventory.

After patting it lightly, the simple wooden board was suspended like this.

Obviously, this is a 'table' that has been treated with magic. You can tell from its suspended appearance that food should be placed on it.

In fact, Hodder did the same.

One by one, he placed the things he got before on the floating wooden table.

Among them were wine, bread and large roasts.

Plus some pastries.

The portion is not too much, but it is more than enough as a meal for two.

But now, Hela is not particularly interested in these.

At least, her eyes were not set on these things.

But now, the Nether Queen's eyes were only on that man.

"What are you looking at me for?"

After feeling the unobstructed sight, Hodder asked helplessly.

"Aren't you going to dinner?"

"Yeah, that's what I thought."

she said.

"Just, I wonder why you spent so long down there."

In Hela's eyes, this kind of thing shouldn't take too long.

After all, he has magic. When Dietrich, who is also a wizard, completely ignores and gives a tacit attitude, Hodder is free.

"If you just took these foods, you wouldn't have spent so long, would you?"

"So I also said that I was chatting with a few people I knew before."

"So what were we talking about?"

When Huo De sat down again, what he saw was Hela's curious eyes.

"Is it something important?"

"It's nothing particularly important."

After thinking about it carefully, Huo De still sighed helplessly.

"Didn't I tell you before, at this coronation ceremony, she must take this opportunity to reclaim the power in the hands of the lords."

"Ah, yes, I still feel that this is not a good thing."

Of course Hella understood their thoughts.

For now, what the entire Gothic Kingdom needs most is 'stability'.

If Dietrich would stay in Gothic for a few years, that would be fine.

Because of her own existence, no one dares to go against her will.

The drastic military and political reforms may cause some chaos, but they will all be suppressed in the end.

Because the existence of Dietrich itself is a great deterrent.

But what if she leaves?

Can the prestige of those under her be suppressed?

And this is not some kind of reform, complete centralization from top to bottom.

"If you are not careful, maybe the whole kingdom will become chaotic."

"Well, I just care about this, so I went to remind you."

"Have you gone to remind that woman?"

Saying so, Hela reached out and grabbed a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth.

But before she could chew any more, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

"The taste seems a little mediocre. It is indeed very fragrant, but not as sweet as expected."

"That's because you are addicted to sweetness, and milk has to be sweetened."

After hearing Hela's words, Huo De couldn't help shaking his head.

In his opinion, the honey cake has no disadvantages except that the baking time is too long and the texture is not so soft.

"take it out."

And when the sage was slicing the mutton, what he saw was Hela's little hand.

As if it was a matter of course, she asked Huo De for her favorite food.

Then, with a twist of his mouth, Hodder took out a glass bottle from the inventory, and there were small pieces of cookies in it.

All sweets with a lot of added sugar.

However, after seeing the bottle, Hela looked a little dissatisfied.

"Is this the only cookie?"

she asked.

At this moment, Hodder was also expressionless.

"Of course there's only this kind, you've already eaten the rest."

"Oh."

In the end, Hela didn't continue to call out anything.

She just picked up the glass jar and poured herself some sweet cookies.

Now she won't call over there, will she?

With this in mind, Hodder also poured himself a glass of fruit wine.

He placed the sliced ​​meat on the bread and smeared the gravy.

This way the bread also has a meaty taste.

But just when he was about to put the bread and meat into his mouth, he heard Hela's voice again.

"so what."

"So what?"

When he raised his head again, he saw that Hela took out the milk out of nowhere, and ate the cookies while drinking the milk.

And there are many ways to eat it.

Either soak the milk, or stuff it in your mouth and take another big gulp, waiting for the biscuit to soften in your mouth.

That's it for now.

In front of Huo De, Hela's mouth was covered with milk.

God knows what she said before.

Anyway, Howard thinks it's outrageous.

He just watched Hela swallow the milk-soaked biscuit completely.

"I mean, have you talked to that woman before?"

"No, I didn't talk to her, I just talked to her people."

After hearing Hodder's words, Hela's expression became strange again.

"If you don't talk to the person involved, aren't you playing around the corner?"

"There is no detour, it's just that she likes to dance on the edge of the cliff."

Having said that, Hodder felt his mouth was a little dry, so he took another sip of the fruit wine.

"What did you say?"

"I said, she needs one thing now to rebuild trust."

Chapter 63: I am me and I am not me

Re-establish a relationship of trust?

What does it mean?

Just when Huo De said that, Hela fell into a state of confusion instead.

She even wrote this confusion directly on her face.

And for a while, Hodder didn't know whether to call her stupid or just too simple.

If you think about it carefully, it should be the latter.

After all, she is not stupid, and she definitely has her own brains and tricks to be able to stand up to the gods as the Queen of the Nether.

As for why I didn't think of it for a while, it is probably because I am not deeply involved in the world.

Well, this word that should have been used to describe those teenagers or girls who have been growing up in one place seems unexpectedly suitable for Hela.

For when she was still a little girl, she had been thrown into that land of ghosts.

She doesn't understand much about the so-called society and the so-called sophistication of the world.

But it also seems to prove one thing.

She never had that kind of so-called trustworthy person from the beginning.

None of the characters that come to mind when the word 'trust' comes to mind.
