You and me under the world tree

Chapter 1: The real reason

At this moment, for Dietrich, every word said by that woman who looked similar to her but was more mature was like a heavy hammer hitting her heart.

Vaguely, she could even detect some resonance in it.

It had nothing to do with magic or any supernatural power, and she could feel that the woman in front of her didn't use any extra abilities.

After all, she was just there to talk.

However, her words stimulated the boredom and fatigue that had always existed in her heart.

So at this moment, Dietrich couldn't help feeling a little restless.

It's a mental conflict...

Because her mind has been lingering in the habitual cognition that has been developed since childhood.

For her, the identity of the royal family is inseparable, so she is used to living and working hard with this identity.

Even now, that tired mentality made her irritated and disoriented, but it didn't stop her from moving on—until Mehmet showed up.

The words spoken by the woman who looked like her in front of her were intriguing in themselves.

And this inducing power unconsciously expanded the tired thoughts in her heart, which finally had a violent conflict with her cognition.

"For others, what they have lost is actually insignificant, because for them, as royals, there is nothing in this world that they can't get."

Touching the child's helmet, Mehmet spoke.

"But you are different... for this position, you changed yourself, gave up your hobbies, and even covered up your gender. You can't get close to anyone, and you can't have a sincere friendship like other people."

"I have……"

But one of Mehmet's words finally sparked her reaction.

Therefore, Dietrich couldn't help retorting in a low voice.

Although because of the battle helmet, the girl's voice was so deep that it made people's heart palpitate.

But for Mehmet, Dietrich's words are a sign of lack of confidence.

"I'm talking about the people around you, child..." Mehmet whispered, "You have friends in Jotunheim, but can they help you?"

Although this question seems extremely cruel, it is actually easy to answer.

There is no way...

Even though the giants seem to have supernatural powers and even possess extremely powerful power, due to limitations, they do not have the strength to extend their hands out of their own country.

Because they can't go too far in this regard.

As long as you take your eyes off the human world, give up worshiping the gods, and look at the entire Nine Realms, you will find that there is always a delicate balance between the gods and the giants.

As long as the giant doesn't go too far, the gods will turn a blind eye to it.

Even, it is their own business to make troubles in Jotunheim, and the Asa protoss don't care about it at all-just kidding, the enchantment mainly composed of Iron Forest is there, let alone forced invasion, the protoss Not even spying on the world of giants.

And because of this balance, Dietrich fought alone from the very beginning, and even her best friend, Princess Zebul, couldn't help her too much.

However, there is actually an agreement between them.

Although Dietrich never thought that the original agreement would be useful, but now, that agreement has become her life-saving straw.

At least in the face of that other mother figure, it was a lifesaver!

"Zebul can help me..." she began, "she'll take care of a lot of my troubles."

"At that time, she will also become your only boudoir close friend... Do you want to say that?"

Mehmet now holds all the memories of King Dietermar, not to mention the present, she is almost inseparable from Dietermar in the past alone.

Therefore, she naturally knew the things that Dietrich had narrated to her father.

And it includes her journey in the kingdom of giants and the close friend she made in the boudoir.

"I don't want to comment on your short-term friendship, but... child, are you really willing to do this? You can't watch the world with your own eyes, and you must be careful in every move, because once exposed, then It means a devastating blow, are you really willing to live in such dire straits all the time?"

In the end, Mehmet's words completely irritated Dietrich, which made her clenched her fists involuntarily.

Under the helmet, the girl's pale face became ferocious.

Her emotions fluctuated greatly, and because of this, the flames burning around her directly fed back to the molten iron armor on her body.

'ZiZiZiZi'

At this moment, even Dietrich's combat boots began to flow hot molten iron, and as a price, the ground even collapsed.

But soon, this melting and collapse disappeared, because her combat boots had been frozen by ice at this moment.

Of course, this was Hodder's handwriting, but he was just trying to prevent Dietrich from causing greater turmoil.

He didn't get involved in this mother-daughter argument that could destroy the office...or even the palace.

At this moment, the man just looked up and looked around.

He has already realized that the surrounding area has been set up by magic, which seems to isolate this space.

However, out of the kind of vigilance in his heart, he still set up another set of rune barriers by himself.

However, his actions did not attract anyone's attention, including the always vigilant Dietrich.

Because she just stared at Mehmet, at the face similar to hers.

"What's the point of saying this now!" she said

Under the extremely close distance, Mehmet could naturally hear Dietrich's manic words.

Moreover, she could still hear a tremor behind this mania.

"I have followed the path you have laid out until now, and the one who gave me this... is you."

There was nothing wrong with that, because it was she who gave Dietrich that power.

It can even be said that because of the existence of that kind of power and blood, Dietrich's desire is unprecedentedly strong.

Her malice can be said to come from the heart, so she also has to work hard to suppress this desire.

"However, if this makes you uncomfortable, just give up."

At the moment Dietrich lowered her head, Mehmet spoke slowly.

"You make me give up now..."

"Why can't you give up? The Gothic Kingdom is a pain for you."

At this moment, Dietrich subconsciously closed her eyes.

She struggled and hesitated.

But in the end, he couldn't say anything to refute.

Perhaps, for her now, the identity of the royal family really can only make her feel tired.

She couldn't see the end at all, so she naturally had no expectations.

But it wasn't like this before.

That's because there were family members in the past...

"In the past, you stood here to repay Dietmar's expectations, but now there is no reason for that, Dietrich."

Chapter 2: Home of the Devil

Perhaps, for most people who enjoy the benefits and status brought by power, the idea of ​​Dietrich as the heir to the kingdom will shock them.

While feeling incredible, they may also feel unacceptable.

Because Dietrich's purpose is too pure.

She never enjoys any power, and she doesn't even leave a few reliable maids by her side, and she can even be said to be tough without discrimination.

And the reason she worked so hard was never that position.

For Dietrich, the Gothic throne was never something to fight for, because it was hers.

What's more, Dietrich is not an ordinary person.

First of all, because of her demon blood originating from Mehmet, she was born with great power.

Coupled with his outstanding talent, he also has good attainments in magic.

Perhaps, for the general royal family, all they can offer is their own identity.

If they put aside that layer of identity, they might disappear from the crowd, and even some arrogant and domineering guys might be beaten to death on the street.

But it's different for a magical person like Dietrich.

Because magic is magical.

If it is used properly and has high attainments, it is no less than the labor force of dozens or even hundreds of people.

A highly skilled wizard can live comfortably in the deep mountains and old forests alone.

They can plant their favorite flowers and raise obedient monsters.

And more importantly, apart from not being noticed, they can be said to be quite free in life.

Born with supernatural power, strong martial arts, and outstanding magic...

For such a Dietrich, the identity of the royal family is nothing more than giving her a better platform to play, and this kind of "play" without exception points to the fact that in the eyes of most humans in Midgard, she is very important. important stuff:

glory.

However, Dietrich herself was not interested in these things.

If she had been interested, she would not have confronted the Valkyrie in the first place.

In fact, at that time, she only had the entire Gothic kingdom in her eyes, and she had always acted in the interests of the kingdom.

But in the final analysis, as Mehmet herself said, she has been working hard for her father and to make herself worthy of the high expectations he placed on her.

Just like children will unconsciously change their views when they are subtle, their hard work in reading has never been for themselves, but for the sake of those around them.

And it's just an extremely pure purpose: I hope to be praised by my parents, and I don't want to see their parents disappointed.

If Dittmar did not die of betrayal as she is now, but died of old age, maybe she would soon be able to adjust her mentality, give up her former hobbies with peace of mind, and then spend her life as the successor king.

But the reality is not like this...

Because the undisguised act of betrayal was right in front of his eyes, even his father died because of it, and even in the end, what was put on the table was completely some people's personal interests, not pure hatred.

Because of this, she experienced the fragility of "family affection" for the first time. Originally, she thought that her parents and her would be united no matter what.

Who would have thought that there would be an inner ghost in it...

Families crumble and kingdoms are divided.

Now, everything she had hoped for no longer exists, and what remains are all kinds of interest entanglements that make her tired.

If it was in the past, she might be able to refute something righteously.

But now, those words were stuck in her throat, making it difficult for her to speak.

And her struggling state was naturally seen by Hodder.

However, he couldn't say anything.

With his current status, he has to weigh it carefully if he wants to make a sound to induce.

Therefore, he could only remain silent and quietly watch the scene in front of him.

Moreover, he still had such a premonition.

Mehmet didn't come here just to 'raise some points', she must have her own purpose.

After all, if you think about it carefully, if she really only wanted to say a few words, then theoretically she should have come more than a month ago.

But she chose at this juncture, probably because she had spent time observing the entire Gothic Kingdom before?

Maybe she is still lurking elsewhere.

"So... give up, child." She whispered, "If you feel painful and uncomfortable, then give up."

"It's too late to say this now..."
