You and me under the world tree

The gods are not trustworthy in his eyes.

Not only did he have strong doubts, but deep down in his heart there was even a touch of sadness and hatred from his childhood, and even from his mother.

Maybe, because he is a giant.

From a very young age, he has a relatively clear and independent consciousness.

Because he is the mother's child, he vaguely has the emotions of the mother during childbirth and pregnancy.

From the happiness at the beginning, the waiting to the despair and anger when I learned the truth later.

Plus those things he decides to do.

"It's impossible to believe anyway."

Whispering like this, Etzel finally reached out and held the nutrient solution.

However, he didn't want to drink it, and he didn't even want to smell it.

At this moment, he just waved his hand lightly, as if he was stroking the crystal bottle.

And under his 'touch', the medicine bottle disappeared slowly.

Very simple storage magic.

He hid it away, and because of the nature of the storage magic itself, no one would know where it was.

That's good, he will test the effect of this bottle of potion through other methods.

As for now...

"call……"

After coughing twice, he closed his eyes again.

His head is still groggy, and the sequelae seem to still exist.

And he also had a bad dream before, not because of anything else, because he dreamed of his mother.

The special physique possessed by the Jotun giants is similar to the creation of life, and it is also a true inheritance.

So no matter what, the child will eventually inherit the characteristics of the mother or father.

Even, this inheritance also contains part of the memory.

If the emotion is strong, even the feeling at that time can be passed down in its entirety.

And Etzel is clearly in this state.

Although he has never personally experienced it, his mother, the giant princess Gonglu, undoubtedly had complicated emotions at the last moment of pregnancy.

She feels angry at being cheated on, abandoned, and even disgusted with her unborn self.

Yes, there was a moment when Gonglu did take his anger out on the unborn him.

After all, she is not a saint, so the grievance and anger in her heart naturally need a channel to vent.

What's more, at that time, she was just a young girl in love.

However, it is precisely because of this situation that Etzel can understand how great his mother really is.

Because in this situation, she still suppressed her anger.

She finally relented because she knew the child in her womb was innocent.

So, perhaps the weakest giant in history was born.

He knows the greatness of his mother, and deeply understands that woman has always loved him.

It was also for this reason that her experience became his psychological shadow.

Because now, she is dead.

"call."

Forcibly suppressing the uneasiness and despair from his mother surging in his heart, Etzel took out another item.

It was a piece of pie that glowed with greenery.

It is the solidified product of boiled various herbal medicines, and it is more convenient to carry.

But it was originally something to quickly replenish nutrition and fill the stomach.

So of course the taste is not good.

When Etzel finished his mouth, a herbal smell that could not be dispelled began to spread in his mouth.

There is something indescribably cool, but not sweet.

Moreover, its taste is not the kind of rice noodles.

There is no sticky feeling, as if it can slide down the throat directly.

If it was normal, Etzel felt that he would never touch this kind of thing no matter what.

But now I can't care less.

After the shadow of his mother Gonglu passed, the only thing that stayed in his mind was that almost obsessive figure.

She followed him, trusted him completely, and even put her life in his hands.

How could he make her worry and disappoint?

"call……"

In the end, he ate up a piece of nutritious medicine cake that could only be absorbed by the digestive power of a giant.

The taste of the medicine in the mouth has not completely dissipated, and this does not have the satisfaction of eating rice noodles.

But Etzel could feel that he was indeed 'full'.

And the giant physique inherited from the mother is also continuously absorbing the concentrated nutrition.

Gradually, the drowsiness in Etzel's mind dissipated, and he himself exhaled a foul breath.

And until now, he has the energy left to think about other things.

Now, it's too late.

It was precisely because of this that he was going to see his wife.

No matter what, his appearance can give Haierjie a reassurance after all.

However, during this journey, he turned around and returned to the hall of the castle.

Now, the castle hall, which is the center of the battle, has been cleaned up.

And various places have also undergone a round of simple repairs.

However, what can be cultivated if there is only one day's time?

It is nothing more than covering the cracks on the ground with carpets and filling the sword wounds on the walls with hanging paintings.

As for the rest, it can only come slowly.

Just like that, he suddenly walked out of the castle slowly, and the guards stationed at the gate couldn't help being startled when they saw him.

"His Majesty!"

They were taken aback for a moment, and then saluted involuntarily.

"You'll be fine!"

When the Valkyrie delivered the news that the king had been attacked, one of their hearts was still hanging.

"You do your thing."

Staring at the guards, Etzel opened his mouth and said.

"Do not bother me."

"Yes!"

Those guards who were finally relieved showed a gleam of joy.

But they didn't say much, just continued to follow their duties and stood in front of the castle.

As for Etzel, he didn't go very far, he just stood on the steps and stared at the clean and destroyed council hall.

The government hall, which should have been extremely magnificent and huge, has now become a ruin, with wreckage everywhere.

"Ugh."

And at this moment, the king standing in front of the door actually looked so desolate.

Ruined city.

King met with attack.

The identity of the black hand behind the scenes was not even clear, nor was it caught.

No matter where this thing is placed, it will cause headaches.

Looking at the back of the King of Punishment to which they were loyal, unconsciously, the guards felt that they should do something.

"His Majesty."

After hesitating for a while, someone finally spoke in a low voice.

"You don't have to worry about anything. Both the council hall and the temple can be repaired or even rebuilt."

"What did you say? Something happened to the temple?"

However, what the guards didn't expect was that their king made a sound of astonishment.

"Your Majesty... don't you know?"

Then the guards and the king looked at each other.

Chapter 99: Escape

Suddenly, an awkward atmosphere spread in front of the castle gate.

The king and the guards looked at each other, both looking puzzled.

In Hungary, there should be no funnier picture than this.

At least that's what the guards who were involved thought so.

He saw King Etzel calmly watching the ruined council hall not far away, thinking that he should know everything.

No, no matter what, he should know, right?

Why is he acting like he doesn't know anything now?

The guard didn't know, and he couldn't figure it out at all.

He would also not know that the shock that Etzel seemed to be unable to conceal now was actually not what he thought at all.

In fact, the current Etzel just feels some inexplicable heartache.

But this heartache is not due to the symbolic meaning of the temple itself.

He didn't care about these at all.

If he respected the gods, Hermod, as a brother, would not be tied up with a whip and shaken like a dead dog.

And what he—Etzel, the Hungarian King, really cared about was the specifications of the temple.

The scale of the huge temple and the murals and statues in it, the pantheon is all money after all!

If it really collapsed into ruins like the Council Hall, then it must be a huge expense to rebuild it.

And if it is all spread on the people, it can be regarded as a waste of money.

So here comes the question, if the government hall and the temple are to be rebuilt, which one should be the main one?

To be honest, Etzel really wanted to focus on the Council Hall.

But he is the Son of God after all.

"It's really a problem for me, it's so disgusting."

Inexplicably feeling a headache, Etzel couldn't help covering his head.

And this weak appearance couldn't help but make the soldiers loyal to him tremble with fear.
