You and me under the world tree

Seeing Hilda suddenly turn his head away, Siegfried just chuckled.

However, his kind of laughter didn't seem to do much to lighten the atmosphere.

Because at this moment, there was still nothing to talk about between the two of them, and neither of them spoke first.

This feeling is actually very strange.

When they get along now, even if they don't say or do anything, they just do their own things and stay for a day.

There is no sense of repulsion towards strangers, but it is not completely ignoring the existence of the other party.

From the corner of the eye, occasionally catching a glimpse of the other party's existence can be quite reassuring...

Probably so.

Then Siegfried took another sip of the fruit wine.

In fact, they arrived here two days ago.

And when they first arrived here, there were always conversations between them, because to Hilda, everything in the Kingdom of Nibelungen seemed extremely interesting.

Hilda is like a little girl with endless topics.

It can also be seen from this aspect that only when she leaves the land of Iceland does she seem to be liberated.

That was the land where she was born and raised, and her father and friends were all there.

But isn't she bound by the princess status that many people dream of?

Therefore, when traveling, Hilda inevitably has a tendency to let go of himself.

However, this situation only lasted for one day.

That night, the dwarf named Alberich, the king of the Nibelung Kingdom, obviously drank a little too much.

Although he has been dragged by his two younger sisters, he has been holding Hilda's hand, and then chatting about Siegfried there.

"Siegfried, this brat hasn't had much... hiccups since he was a child, if his uncle hadn't been dragging him... hiccup, he could go to heaven recklessly, so after you are together, you have to be good... Hiccup, take good care of him, I don't have a child, I've only raised such a brat."

It was also after that that the atmosphere between them became awkward.

Because I really don't know what to say.

Was Siegfried the first to speak?

Or should Hilda say something first?

Then, in this silent atmosphere, a dwarf ran over.

"His Royal Highness! Your Royal Highness!!"

The title he yelled caused both Hilda and Siegfried to look away.

Pretend you didn't hear it...

Chapter 85: People like me...

At the moment when the dwarf was running towards the port while yelling an obviously directional title, neither Siegfried nor Hilda could involuntarily look away.

They coincidentally became ostriches.

But now, the dwarf had a goal after all, so before they had been shrinking their heads for a long time, the dwarf had already run in front of them.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness!"

Although the dwarf has good physical strength, the dwarf in front of him looks quite tired, as if he has been running for a long time.

And, by the time he reaches Siegfried and them, he even looks out of breath.

"Have a drink."

Siegfried directly handed over the bottle of fruit wine.

The dwarf was not polite, he just picked up the wine bottle and poured it into his mouth.

For the dwarves, fruit wine is actually just fun, and what they really like is strong drinks.

But it doesn't matter now, as long as it can quench your thirst.

"His Majesty Alberich invites you to go, Your Highness Siegfried, your needs have been met."

After hearing what the dwarf said, Siegfried, who was still inexplicably immersed in that awkward atmosphere, couldn't help being taken aback.

Immediately afterwards, he stood up directly.

"So fast? It's only been two days, right?"

Even two days is too much to say.

Because Siegfried put forward those design requirements to his adoptive father the next morning, how long is it now?

Seeing Siegfried's astonished face, the dwarf laughed.

A proud smile could not help showing on a bold face.

"This is the Kingdom of the Nibelungen, my lord. Even though we are the 'dead' who have been forgotten, even though our former kingdom no longer exists, we still keep the former glory in our hearts."

The glory of the past...

"Genita Hyde, that used to be the kingdom with the best craftsmanship in the entire atrium, and our current majesty the king has perfectly inherited the craftsmanship of His Majesty Hreidmar."

…………

As I said before, Siegfried and the others didn't come here purely for a simple vacation or the treasure of the evil dragon that a few people know well.

The so-called treasure or something, this kind of thing is absolutely secondary, because the ring on his hand can perfectly achieve the goals that those people outside need.

Even, if he himself just wants to realize something like the evil dragon's treasure, he doesn't have to take the risk to come here at all.

And there are two reasons why I came to this Ganita Head.

One is the palace mentioned earlier...

Siegfried hopes that his adoptive father, the dwarf king Alberich, can personally design the layout of the palace for him, and there will even be special dwarf organs inside.

If at that time, someone asks about the source of the blueprint, Siegfried will cover it with the 'treasure of the evil dragon'.

Anyway, the blueprint is here, and it's not mine, maybe it was designed by the dwarf king for someone else before.

But as for who it is, it's not clear, it's not him anyway.

However, apart from the palace, Alberich is actually busy with one thing: the ship.

In simple terms, he is designing a ship.

The ship is based on the huge, defunct ship of the Pirate Queen Howard, incorporating various magical crafts.

"You're about to ascend the throne, and I can't go and see you there."

Looking at the design drawing with various professional data marked in his hand, Alberich couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a subtle feeling in his heart.

Because he couldn't help but think of the past.

At first, he was willing to take the baby from the man because the man had saved his life.

But at that time, he actually felt uneasy in his heart.

Because of the prophecy given by the three goddesses of Noren, he has always had unreasonable fear of the existence of this child Siegfried.

But it would be a lie to say that there was no emotion poured into it.

In the process of getting along, he watched Siegfried grow up gradually, from naughty to sensible, and the noise of this process reminded him to a certain extent of the days in Gurnita Head.

Otherwise, he would not proudly declare that this is his adopted son.

After all, as a father, even an adoptive father, he also hopes to send a congratulatory gift to his children.

"That's about it..." Alberich said, staring at the two design drawings on the table.

"Lakin!"

Then, at this moment, he heard Siegfried's voice.

"Ah, here you are."

After slightly straightening the crown on his head, Alberich pushed the blueprint on the table out.

"It's probably like this. For the palace... I originally considered some interesting designs, but since your construction level is not as good as ours, I omitted some maze designs."

Although he hasn't looked at the blueprint yet, when he heard his adoptive father's words, Siegfried still had a headache.

"Maze, it's better not to add this kind of thing, after all, it's not a good thing to be too advanced."

After all, the maze defined by dwarves is not the same as the maze seen by humans.

Even though he is as careful as Legney, the maze created by the Hendin family's palace is nothing more than using similar environments and various corners to give people the illusion of getting lost.

As long as there is a map... or a good sense of direction, then this most low-level maze will be self-defeating.

However, a dwarf is defined differently.

What can really be called a labyrinth by the dwarves is actually the palace like the Hreidmar family.

Manipulate various passages through the ring, and engrave the road with magic.

If strangers or enemies invaded the palace consciously, then those institutions behind the palace could definitely teach them to be human again.

This is much more high-end than Legney's, even if he was able to control the palace with a scroll later.

However, this has extremely high requirements for craftsmanship.

"For us humans, magic or something is still a rarity, unlike you dwarves."

Among human beings, there can be outstanding people with incomparably superior magical talents, but at the same time, most people have no chance of these things.

The population base is large, the upper limit is extremely high, but the lower limit is also quite low. At the same time, the life expectancy is not long.

Moreover, because this kind of thing depends on talent, most wizards in the human group would rather choose to live in seclusion than spread magic widely.

Because it doesn't make any sense to teach it, and it may even cause fire to some extent.

"For us, people like me can be regarded as wizards." Siegfried said helplessly.

At the same time, a flame burst out from his palm.

But then, the flame in his hand suddenly swelled up, and then rushed directly to his eyes.

The runes are out of control, control seems to have been taken.

However, he was not frightened in any way, he just turned around calmly.

Then, he saw the girl whose hands seemed to emit magical light.

Obviously, the person who controlled the runes he drew was himself.

"Hilda?"

"Just to show you what a real wizard can do."

Facing Siegfried's slightly helpless gaze, Her Royal Highness Princess of Iceland suddenly laughed.

Then, she snapped her fingers.

With the radiance dissipating, the boiling flame in Siegfried's hands also disappeared.

"You..."

"Hmph~."

Seeing Siegfried's helpless expression, Hilda just laughed.

All of a sudden, a series of silver bells sounded in the hall of Nibelungen.

Chapter 86: Design Drawings

When Hilda suddenly laughed like this, Siegfried suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

It's not because of any jealousy.

After all, he didn't have a strong talent in this area.

Perhaps when he was very young, he also imagined the handsome scene of driving magic.
