You and me under the world tree

This was her first reaction. If, as the sage said, Yermungandr is not a simple monster, but a giant who can communicate with language, can you ask him about the events more than 20 years ago? ?

At this moment, such an optimistic thought emerged from the bottom of Hewale's heart.

If Jormungandr could communicate and point out the burial place of Angentyr and the Twelve Warriors, who was extremely small in his eyes, wouldn't she be able to fulfill her mother's last wish?

Thinking of this, even though Hewale had warned herself countless times, even though she knew that she must treat others with a normal heart, she was still a little excited.

After all, in her heart, the weight of her mother is too heavy.

Her mother is undoubtedly a strong woman. Even though she has no power to restrain the chicken, she still uses the knowledge in her mind to do her best to teach the daughter she gave birth to.

Maybe harsh at times, but she really loves her daughter.

For Hewalle, the most breathless thing may be the mother's expectation.

She looks forward to the day when her daughter will wave her father's flag and return to Norway in the name of her father.

But unfortunately, she didn't get to see that day.

Even, she has never seen her husband's corpse, and the whereabouts of King Angentyr's corpse and the magic sword are still unknown.

Although her mother never whispered anything in her ear, it only deepened Hewale's obsession.

She will never forget her mother's appearance before she died of illness, calling the name of her dead father and king, and calling the names of several brothers and sisters she had never seen before.

Then, die.

When she was alone, she had thought countless times, if she was lucky, what would happen if she found her father's remains and the magic sword before her mother passed away.

In that case, her mother might not have to carry too many negative emotions in her heart.

Maybe, she will live till now.

Even now, Howler is thinking about it.

Her mother's death had hit her hard, so finding her father's bones and magic sword was obviously an obsession for her.

To her, the news from the sage was like the only light of fire in the night, which brought her a very tempting hope.

However, she is not a brainless moth after all.

In the end, she still suppressed the restlessness in her heart.

Because she thought of one thing: Jormungandr is a suppressed thing after all.

Yes, repression...

The king of the gods must have had a reason to suppress this ferocious beast, but from a conventional point of view, Hewale subconsciously blamed Yemengard himself for this matter.

This is the cognition of the atrium world. The giants in Jotunheim survived because of the kindness of the gods.

When human beings are thinking, their thoughts will be more or less biased towards gods.

So, Hewale just pinched his own wooden seat.

'click'

Under her subconscious handling, the slightly fragile armrest of the seat even let out an unbearable scream at this moment.

"Where did you get this information?" she asked

Said it came from a witch who didn't know where she lived?

Thinking of the witch exuding maternal temperament, Hodder couldn't help but hesitate at this moment.

Of course, it wasn't because he wanted to protect the witch's privacy.

He just wondered if the name of an NPC that even players like him had never heard of would seem a bit strange to the ears of another NPC.

So at this moment, he simply dragged the other guy out of the bag.

"The God of Wildfire." Hodder said, "I met him once."

Well, and chopped off his head.

But the latter sentence will definitely not be said.

And in fact, that's the end of Hodder's remarks.

He won't elaborate too much, this aspect can be left to the other party to think for themselves.

Anyway, he didn't lie, he did have a relationship with Loki once, and took a lot of things from him.

And more importantly, Loki's name is not considered a minority, and his name appears quite frequently, so even Hewaler, who has been living in the northern seas for a long time, has absolutely no reason to say that he has never heard of it.

However, because of this, the Pirate Queen couldn't help frowning.

Among Midgard, Loki's reputation is not good to be honest.

Although Loki also has a story of helping the stranded fishermen with all his heart, he is notorious in the atrium world after all.

Not because of anything else, just because of his other title: the god of trickery.

The names of the gods are actually not fixed. On the one hand, they are related to their symbols, and on the other hand, they are also related to their conduct.

As for Loki's conduct, everyone understands this aspect.

Regardless of who he is, his reputation is ultimately there, so it's normal to have doubts.

Unknowingly, Hewale has turned his thoughts from the sage to the "God of Tricks" he called.

"This is... let's just leave it at that, let's stop here, Your Excellency the Sage, there is no need to bother about some things."

In the end, she still said such words.

Is this because she really gave up?

No, it's not...

It can be said that there is no one here who wants to find her father's remains more than her.

However, she cannot gamble.

She knew that the reason why the sage came to find her was to use the giant under her to communicate with the huge python.

But, she can't do that.

She couldn't afford to gamble, neither emotionally nor rationally.

Not only does she consider the amnesiac giant as her partner, the giant is also the 'power source' of her ship.

Without him, the entire ship would not be able to move, and the previous strategy would even be invalidated.

Maybe later?

No, no risk.

Just when the idea in his mind gradually became dangerous, Hewale cut it off directly.

Is it because he doesn't trust the unfathomable sage Volsung in front of him, or has he subconsciously believed in him, but he just can't trust Loki, the god of tricks, and Nayemgard?

Hewale didn't know, and she didn't want to figure it out at the moment.

The important thing is that she can't take risks because of this illusory hope and possibility.

"What matters to you and me, to Siegfried, is the war we are preparing for."

"Well, I can understand." Hodder didn't seem to care much about Hewale's final refusal.

"Well, that's it."

"I will prove to you that I am right."

Then, the sage Huo De turned around and left, while He Huale just stared blankly at the plain back.

"Why do you want to do this?"

Finally, the Pirate Queen couldn't help but patted herself on the forehead.

"Why should I be obsessed with something that even I myself have given up..."

Chapter 20: Each has an idea

It has to be said that the sage of Volsung is really a maverick.

When Hodder left the 'Giant Ship', Hewale's thoughts fell into a little confusion.

In the slightly dark wooden 'temple', Hewale couldn't help but fix his eyes on the man's back.

His footsteps were not fast, and he didn't know whether he was confident or casual. He just walked like this, but Hewale felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

Yes, she was in a bad mood.

Because she found that she was a little confused about her feelings and thoughts.

Because at this time, she actually found that she had such a glimmer of expectation for no reason.

He was clearly not related to his group, and what the sages of Volsunger needed was nothing more than the fighting power of the pirates in the abandoned port.

Yes, that's all he needs.

After Huo Le went through the memories and thoughts in her mind over and over again, she found that there was no benefit at all.

From the perspective of the Volsung family, what is the most important thing to him?

Of course it's the 'army', so Hewalle is very aware of the importance of the 'Northern Pirates' he represents.

Whether it is the seemingly simple and honest descendant of Volsunger or the sharp-tongued sage, no matter what their personalities are, their purpose is the same.

In the final analysis, wooing is only the first step. For the declining Volsung clan, with only two...or three remaining, the ultimate goal is to completely take these fighters who fought out of the dark sea into their own hands. .

As for this, they should not be willing to see a magic sword like Tierfeng fall into the hands of Hevale as the heir.

As a leader, of course, the weaker she is, the better, which is also convenient for control.

Not to mention robbing Tyrfing, when Hewale himself gave up, bringing up old things and helping with the search, these are behaviors that shouldn't be done in the first place.

Could it be that the wise sage hopes to win the goodwill of himself, the cruel 'Pirate Queen', through this behavior?

For this kind of wise man who has lived for a long time and whose blood should be quiet, would he expect personal emotions?

No, it won't.

As a matter of course, Hewale directly denied this possibility.

There must be benefits that I don't know about...

"Tsk, that guy is really..."

Because he really couldn't figure out the stakes, He Waller couldn't help covering his head in the end.

"asshole."

A low voice came from the ship of giants, and the faint voice inevitably stopped Lagoza, who was outside to deliver food for His Royal Highness the Princess, who was loyal to him, to stay where he was.

It has to be said that the head of the eldest sister who was sitting in the dark and lit only by candlelight looked inexplicably eerie at this time.

"That... Your Highness?" she called

As the leader of the Borean pirates, Hewale has various titles.

Most people call her Big Sister, because this kind of title can make her feel less restrained while establishing her leadership position.

After all, at this moment when everyone is united, she herself doesn't really want more 'classes' to appear.

However, among these people, there are always people who uphold the original title.

Like those really old soldiers who came here in the first place with their Royal Highness the Queen.

However, these people were generally in their 40s and [-]s when they followed Angentier, and they were not young at that time, and the environment in the northern seas can be said to be extremely harsh.

With the rise of age, until now, except for a few elderly people, there are very few left.

As for why Lagoza chose to use this title, it was because of her other identity: shield girl.

After all, the royal family has always had the habit of adopting those displaced children. For the queen, this habit did not change until she came to the northern seas.

At that time, people were dying in the northern sea every day. In order to lay down the base camp now called the abandoned port, they lost a large number of soldiers, many of whom were married.

This is how Lagoza's parents sacrificed.

Her parents were soldiers who grew up in the royal family with no background, and she was born under this background as a shield girl.

Growing up, she has always called He Huale 'Your Highness'.

But I got used to it over time. After all, in this abandoned port, these titles refer to Hewalle alone.
