You and me under the world tree

All the details are basically consumed in the battle with Norway and Denmark.

It can be said that it is only one step away from complete subjugation.

Considering it from various perspectives, it is inevitable to stop the war.

And Otwal was a good king, too.

Even though he didn't fight or snatch, and didn't go to war without authorization, he still saved Gitland from the abyss of ruin after the war by using both ways.

Although in terms of the overall situation, Gitland still looks like a small transparent on the surface, but unconsciously, he already has the ability to influence the world structure.

human relationship...

Perhaps this is nothing in the face of great strength, but this is all that Otwal can do. Weak, but no one is willing to offend the point.

But this didn't work

"The gods don't care at all."

Facing Sead's eyes that seemed to have lost all hope, Wittig said.

As cruel as this may sound, it is true.

Wittig could feel this deeply after actually getting in touch with those guys.

"They never cared about human life or death, nor did they care about human social interaction. Naturally, the operation of the kingdom of the human world has nothing to do with them."

"Then, what do these sacrifices of our humans mean..."

Said asked hoarsely.

"It means... distance, faith is the furthest distance."

After hesitating for a moment, Wittig spoke.

"For them, the whole of Midgard is just a huge ranch and barracks, and in order to select outstanding soldiers and humans, what they need is the most simple and cruel things."

What is it?

Even if Wittig didn't directly say this, Sead felt that the answer was ready to come out.

"Is it... war?"

"Ah."

Faced with Sead's question, Wittig gave an affirmative answer.

"They need war."

"Ok?"

"All they need is war, too."

"Ah."

"So what kind of environment have humans lived in all this time?"

"..."

Wittig fell silent after hearing Sead's obviously personal question.

In his eyes, the eldest prince's expression clearly revealed a touch of resentment and madness.

It's a sign of sanity being squeezed to its limits.

Humans are usually out of touch with these things, but once they touch that thick barrier, they will feel tremendous pressure.

Because it means that the concepts that have been accumulated before are all torn apart and destroyed.

Wittig himself didn't care much, his father didn't tell him anything before, but after he rearranged his thoughts and asked his father, Wieland also told him the secrets of many things.

As for Sead himself...

Seeing his extreme expression of crying and laughing, Wittig faintly felt remorse in his heart.

He originally planned to let Sead recognize the real enemy and avoid differences between the two parties due to some potential possibilities.

However, he seemed too impatient.

"But you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself, god..."

"Gods should not appear on the frontal battlefield."

Just when Wittig was about to explain something, he suddenly heard these decisive words.

And when Sead raised his head again, he showed a surprising determination and perseverance.

"For whatever reason, they're only starting the war through Norway, which means there's still room for improvement in that regard."

He stretched out his hand and slammed the wall behind him, and he pursed his lips.

"In short, don't use your usual cognition to look at those gods. There is a gap between them and our usual cognition."

Not so versatile.

Not that powerful.

At the same time, it's not so hopeless.

Even, they still have something to fear.

Wittig actually had a lot to say, but at this moment, he suddenly felt his legs go weak.

The unstoppable sleepiness originating from his body made his steps become stilted, and he even began to sway from side to side.

Sead reached out to support him.

"You look tired too, so let's stop talking today."

"Wait, about the gods..."

After the dizziness got better, Wittig wanted to say something.

But Sead didn't seem to hear it.

"In short, you should live here from today onwards. The room is on the side. I will ask the maid to provide all daily necessities. You can move freely and will not interfere with you."

He said such things.

"Take a good rest, I still have something to do."

"..."

Did you not hear it, or did you clearly express a rejection attitude?

Wittig couldn't be sure of that for a moment, but he did pause.

Then, he watched Sead leave.

But after walking a certain distance, he stopped again.

"Also, I have another request."

"what?"

Wittig looked at Sead in this regard.

His Royal Highness seemed to have something to say, and Wittig even clearly saw his hesitation.

But in the end, Sead shook his head.

"It's nothing. If you want to go out to investigate, remember to tell me. I hope you can submit a specific and detailed report when you come back."

"...Well, I see."

Chapter No.17: Rely on yourself and fight hard

In the end, Wittig did not continue to speak.

He just stood there, watching Sead go away.

In his eyes, the back of His Royal Highness, who should have been high-spirited, looked a little bleak, and that kind of sadness and pain almost hit his face.

Wittig knew he was restless and impatient.

It is precisely because of this that he will show such an attitude that is close to evasion.

However, he did not give up the fight completely.

Thinking of this, the silver snake warrior narrowed his eyes.

In terms of performance, although Sead seems to be out of his mind, he still retains the ability to think.

How should I say it?

"As expected of Studus' elder brother..."

The warrior in white whispered so.

In fact, Sead's performance can already be regarded as an excellent existence in Wittig's view. At least he never thought of giving up, and he is also trying his best to find a solution.

Such him should have been a well-deserved heir to the Kingdom of Gitland.

But it's a pity that he has such a brother.

Sead is good and just needs to grow, but his brother shines brighter than his conformist self in a way.

Even though Wittig had conflicts with Studus several times, this did not prevent him from making such an evaluation.

"I don't know if this is good or bad..."

Wittig is also not quite clear about the family affairs of the Gitland royal family.

In short, what is certain is that when the two brothers who also have the right to inherit theoretically have outstanding talents, the original beauty will definitely turn into a bad situation.

The final result was that Studus left Gothic and became active on the Gothic battlefield as a warrior, and had little contact with Gitland.

"Forget it, this kind of thing...has nothing to do with me."

Not that he wanted to stay out of it completely, but now Wittig felt dizzy.

He himself came to the Rose City after a long journey, and he talked to Seiyad while he was awake day and night.

And when he's completely relaxed, all he wants is a good night's sleep.

As for the family affairs of the Yeate royal family, of course they have to solve it by themselves.

As for himself, all he needs to consider are those things within his ability.

"Norway, Berserker, God..."

Either way, more information is needed.

And while the Norwegian army has not yet advanced here, it is necessary to make use of his own high mobility characteristics.

On the other hand, when Sead returned to his study, he did not go out to review his army as he had planned.

After bidding farewell to Wittig, he directly instructed the shield maidens whom he trusted.

As his maids, these servants who also fought on the battlefield represented the eldest prince to some extent.

And he himself just sat quietly like this.

He needs to calm down and think about the way ahead.

Whether it is Norway, Gitland, or the gods who are likely to be watching this battle.

give up?

That is absolutely impossible.

Sead never thought of giving up.

Whether it is to vent their inner depression and resentment, or for the massacred border people, they cannot give up, and the only choice must be to face it head-on.

But the question is, what should be done?

The best situation is that those aloof gods still have no bets and platforms.

Maybe, all they need is a big battle?

If Gitland's performance is good enough, maybe some things can be reversed?

This kind of thought just lingered in Sead's mind, but it didn't stay for long before dissipating.

Because after all, he has no way to have any sense of trust in those aloof 'masters'.
