You and me under the world tree

This manor was specially built for him to take a vacation. It has basically everything in it, and he also has some human servants to maintain the most basic operations.

For example, there is a pasture belonging to him in the surrounding area, and there is also a deliberately cultivated farmland and mill beside it.

"Hmm... If you really can't, go get some bread and touch two eggs. I remember there is still some milk in the freezer?"

Such trivial matters of life subconsciously emerged in Utgarde's mind.

"At noon, go to the town or the city to find something to eat."

His life has always been so idle, and this is a true portrayal of the daily life of an ordinary frost giant with a little power.

Because of the abilities of the frost giants themselves, their social structure is not close, and some basic magic can solve most of their needs, and most of their social circles exist for 'interest'.

Therefore, even if Utgard didn't have too much contact with others, and basically lived by himself, he could still live quite well.

And to say that his biggest worry is probably the daily schedule.

Although he now has a legitimate job, not everyone will ask him to do house design.

And his long-term meal ticket is the city of ash that is still expanding, but the houses in that city no longer need him to worry about.

In this case, he has a lot of leisure time to spend by himself.

"So what should I do today..."

Just as Utgarde's still-slow brain was slowly working, a voice came from outside the door.

"Breakfast will be ready soon, are you awake?"

It was a voice that he was very familiar with and even missed every day.

And at the moment he heard the voice, his body suddenly trembled.

At the same time, the mind that was still a little confused quickly regained its sobriety.

Speaking of which, he is no longer alone.

Whatever he wanted to do, whatever schedule he had, had to include that woman.

The woman he loved.

"Eggers."

"Huh? What's the matter?"

She replied with a smile.

"It's nothing."

Facing her gentle and bright smile, Utgard was at a loss for a while.

She was too dazzling, so dazzling that he didn't know what to do.

"It's nothing, I just want to call it that."

"Hmph, look at your virtue."

Her smile was even wider.

Facing that smile, Utgard suddenly felt dizzy in his head.

He really felt like he was in a dream, and no matter what he did, he had no sense of reality.

He can't even remember what he did before.

In short, when Utgard came back to himself, he was already sitting at his dining table.

In front of him was his beloved woman, and on the dining table was a simple breakfast.

Sliced ​​bread, tomato, fried egg, and bacon, and the drink is a large glass of hot milk.

Except that the milk has been poured into the cup, the others are served on separate plates.

There is no separate meal, these things are placed randomly on a large plate, obviously waiting for the eater to combine them at will.

"Well, it's not something to sell in taverns anyway, so I made it a little more casually."

Seeing that Utgard seemed to be staring at the breakfast in a daze, Eggers couldn't help but speak.

"It's nothing, it's fine."

After recovering, Utgard spoke.

Then, he stretched out his hand and stacked other ingredients on the bread, forming a sandwich freely.

However, he didn't eat it directly.

Utgard just held the large toast sandwich in both hands, and then suddenly asked a question that seemed strange to Eggers.

"How long have we lived together?"

"Ok?"

Probably because he didn't expect Utgard to ask such a question, Eggers suddenly showed a strange expression.

However, she still gave an answer.

"A week, not too long."

Even though he said so, Eggers' expression soon became strange.

"But speaking of it, it seems like I haven't been to my tavern for a week, and I'm wondering if I should go back and have a look today."

After all, she is a woman with a strong ability to act, and when this idea appeared in her mind, she had already made a decision in this regard.

"How about we go back to Fraxinus later and have a look?"

"Well... I don't care."

Although this response sounded a little stiff, but fortunately Utgard quickly adjusted it.

"But you just finished your night watch work, right? You haven't had much rest since yesterday, and you went out to play soon, and then you will start night watch again at night. Now... don't you feel tired now?"

"Um……"

There was no rebuttal too much, Eggers just yawned.

"It's true, I need to rest for a while, but in the afternoon..."

"It's not too late to talk about things in the afternoon when you wake up."

Staring at the girl in front of him, Utgard said with a smile.

"So do you have anything to do this morning?"

"No, so I'll stay with you in this room."

Maybe it was because these words were too straightforward, Eggers suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and she even had a fever on her face.

"What do you mean, you have nothing to do?"

"No."

Utgarde responded.

"Now, I just want to be by your side, and I don't want to miss every minute."

"What you said..."

For a while, Eggers was a little incoherent.

"Really?"

Chapter 83: Fate...?

In fact, Eggers himself is not too young.

Although she is of course inferior to those acquaintances around her in this respect-for example, Gloria, and Utgarde.

But after all, she herself has spent nearly ten thousand years, and these ten thousand years are nothing to her.

According to common sense, she should be calm, and she is indeed a steady woman.

Although Eggers seems enthusiastic and carefree, she can finally let Gloria rest assured that she will be entrusted with the work of night watch.

However, such a woman who should be called 'perfect' suddenly became at a loss.

Facing Utgarde's extremely straightforward words, she only felt that her mind was blank.

For a moment, she even forgot the words she had prepared.

No, was she ready to speak before?

What can be said?

What should I say?

Now Eggers only feels dizzy, and he can't even control his own actions.

Although they have been living together for a week, the sense of happiness spreading from their hearts has not diminished in the slightest.

And when Eggers came back to her senses, she found that she was already lying on the bed.

"Take a good rest for a while."

The man she loved was sitting on the bed, watching her with a smile.

"Well, I know."

Facing that gaze, Eggers finally yawned.

"We'll discuss where to go after that."

"Well, listen to you."

Then, the giantess, who had worked all night as a night watchman, just closed her eyes.

Of course, Eggers fell into a deep sleep, and in order to ensure the quality of sleep and to ensure that no time wasted, she naturally slept very deeply.

It was also at this moment that Utgarde's expression changed.

Before, he was very kind and seemed to be full of hope for the future, but that was just a disguise.

And in getting along with Eggers, he even almost failed to maintain this disguise several times.

He was afraid all the time.

I'm afraid that Eggers will suddenly discuss with him about the 'future' one day.

He knows that she likes to think about things in this area, and also likes to discuss with others.

But this is precisely what Utgarde fears most.

Because he knew he couldn't make any promises.

It would be cruel for him to lie to this girl.

"That's why I want to keep my distance."

Utgarde stared at Eggers' peaceful sleeping face.

It's just that he himself feels very conflicted about this kind of thing.

Of course he likes this girl, but he doesn't want to hurt her, so he procrastinates on it.

In the end, things turned out like this.

They are indeed together, but it seems that there is not much time left.

Thinking of this, Utgarde felt his chest tight, and a feeling of remorse began to spread in his heart.

For all his choices, he almost had a different idea.

If he had revealed his heart to this girl thousands of years ago, wouldn't the two of them have been together longer?

Thousands of years may not be a big deal in the eyes of some strong people, but no matter what, it is longer than the few days visible to the naked eye now, right?

Or, what if I didn't choose to indulge and buy drunk a week ago because I lost control of my emotions, so I couldn't muster up the courage to break through to the last step?

This might also be a good thing.

Because she hadn't broken through to this point, to her, she might still be just a passer-by in her long life.

She may be sad and angry because of his affairs, but after time has healed everything, she can still find her own happiness... right?

His thoughts reached the last moment, and he couldn't help putting a question mark on it.
