You and me under the world tree

"In the final analysis, Midgard itself is a huge cage. We are all trapped in this world, from birth to death."

The second is more likely at night.

Chapter 14: Is it strong? Will it die?

The world suddenly became cold.

At least that's how Studus felt.

Obviously it is already spring now, and the wind that is blowing also inexplicably carries a breath of revival of all things.

However, the icy coldness that Studus felt has not subsided in any way.

At the same time, the scenery in his mind began to distort.

A long time ago, he had an ideal in his heart, which was to leave the palace where he lived since he was a child and travel around.

See the scenery around the world as an adventurer.

This was originally a very simple wish.

Because not only members of the royal family like him, even commoners have such thoughts in their hearts.

And fortunately, he himself does have such capital.

Civilians are destined to run around for their own lives. As for the desires that were once deep in their hearts, sometimes they can only be kept in the bottom of their hearts.

Their range of movement is certainly closely related to their lives, and when they grow older, or even become old, few people have the energy to move around.

But Studas is different.

He comes from the royal family and has stood at the top of the Gitland Kingdom since his birth.

Apart from other things, the important thing is that he doesn't have to think about his own livelihood at all.

Because even if he is a good-for-nothing prince waiting to die, he can still live his whole life in the court with peace of mind.

And if it makes the royal family feel ashamed, it's just going out to be an ordinary rich man.

That's how he already has the capital to realize his ideals and aspirations.

He hones his martial arts, he slays dragons to prove his strength.

He went out to travel and challenge the strong.

Even though he was defeated by the former Prince Dietrich and now Princess Dietrich and became a warrior under her command, his initial ideals were almost fulfilled.

Because in the Gothic Kingdom, he didn't need to do anything.

Although Her Royal Highness the Princess made him the lord, he didn't care much about the things in his territory.

And what he needs to do is to fight on the battlefield and use the simplest means to resolve the contradictions and disputes between the kingdoms.

The rest of the time is like a vacation to him.

He has been to many places.

Although he didn't live here permanently, but just took a stroll around, but he was quite satisfied with his adventure.

But now, that former sense of satisfaction is now distorted deep in his heart into a kind of shame and anger.

Because he found himself like a beast spinning in a huge cage.

It seems to have a huge territory, but it is watched by the gods outside the cage.

Even, once they do something that makes them feel unhappy, they will be targeted.

At this moment, under the Barnstock, the tree of children, Studus kept taking deep breaths like this.

Siegfried could see that he was trying to calm down the depression and unhappiness in his heart.

However, this sense of shame emanating from the heart is not so easy to disappear.

He also experienced the huge pressure that he couldn't handle.

Because that pressure is suspended in the sky, it makes people who are aware of it feel breathless.

Under normal circumstances, people who experience that kind of pressure have only two choices.

The first option is to choose to escape.

Just give up.

Do nothing, completely ignore this kind of thing.

After the birth of the profession of "wizard" who is proficient in magic and researches runes from the human race, too many people have made such a choice.

It was a wizard after all.

It is impossible for them who are proficient in magic to say that they do not know such things and have no contact with gods.

As for the second option...

"Why?"

Just when Siegfried couldn't help sighing, the hoarse voice of Studus appeared in his ears.

In this regard, he did not respond immediately.

At this moment, he just sighed instead.

"No reason."

Siegfried said.

"It's just reality."

Reality……

This is the status quo of the entire human world and the entire atrium.

It's just that most people will never touch this level in their entire lives, and those who have touched this level will only feel the mountainous pressure.

Because this is no longer a matter of one person.

and this……

"Siegfried...Sifrel."

Suddenly, Studus looked up.

He didn't call out Siegfried's real name, but called out the name Siegfried used when he traveled.

"When did you know these things?"

"I?"

Siegfried was stunned when Studus directly threw such a question at him.

But soon, he laughed.

"I've known this for a while, a long time ago."

long, long ago?

Perhaps it was a strange tone coming from Siegfried.

Because he is still young.

Even though he looks powerful now, he only ruled the Netherlands for a few years.

However, these words gave Studas a strong sense of shock.

"Have you understood before?"

He raised his head slowly.

"Yes, after all, my family... my father, whom I have never met, died in this huge, inescapable cage, and my elder brother even broke out with me. In addition, I once Traveling in the northern seas, I know quite a lot.”

He stared at Studus, and the look in his eyes inevitably complicated the latter's mood.

However, I am afraid that there is no time to wait for him to complicate anything.

"The great war that swept across the northern peninsula was actually written by the gods. These are all recorded in the diary of the former king Angentyr. You should be familiar with them."

Nonsense, of course Studas is familiar with this.

After all, his father ascended the throne of Gitland during that chaotic war.

Although it can't be said that it was trying to turn the tide, it was hard for the entire kingdom to settle down.

"This should have nothing to do with the king."

"Yes, of course it has nothing to do with your father. In fact, it has something to do with Angentier, because Angentir wants to pursue peace. After he finally defended his kingdom, he didn't think about continuing to fight. Then, he child died."

"..."

Studus' expression became gloomy.

He didn't care about Angentil's affairs, after all, the former king of Norway had nothing to do with him.

Moreover, the war in the northern peninsula has passed.

But what really made him feel heavy was what happened to him.

If they don't follow their wishes, there will inevitably be bad news coming around.

Curses and punishments from the gods...

"Is the god strong?"

"Very strong."

"Is the god above everything omnipotent?"

"Can be defeated, even die."

"That's enough..." he whispered, "Thanks, Siegfried."
