You and me under the world tree

Or maybe it was thanks to Bodwall for being willing to break the awkward silence.

And in the end, no one talked about or pursued this matter.

Theotis just followed behind the three warriors in such small steps. She stared at the somewhat familiar street and walked out step by step.

And with her cautious footsteps, the noisy voice outside became more and more clear.

It was the sound of cheers.

Although Theotis has tried his best not to listen to that voice, let alone understand the meaning of those words.

But the humans of Midgard have only one language after all.

Therefore, when those words came, she immediately understood that these cheers belonged to the Gothic princess and the warriors around her.

How long has it been since the war?

It seems like only two or three months?

It's just a season, and the whole world has just turned from winter to spring, but the people here seem to have completely forgotten the war and inner anxiety, and accepted the new regime.

Thinking of this, Theotis couldn't help biting her lip, and her pace slowed down.

"I don't suggest you stop here."

But at this moment, Bodwall's reminder echoed in her ears.

"Your identity is still very sensitive. If you don't want to be judged by the public, you'd better go faster."

"I know."

Theotis knew that these people would come to pick him up at this time.

For is 'quietly'.

Because if she goes out after the parade ceremony is over, it will definitely attract the attention of others.

And this kind of attention is obviously not positive.

Because she understands that her husband has already become a negative teaching material and image, and no matter what, there is absolutely no way to wash away his strategies.

But even so...

"I just want to take another look at this place."

she whispered.

Just like that, she stopped for a while and turned around.

Now she is on the main road of Hero City, so she can see the end of the street when she looks up.

If there are no other accidents, it should be the palace of the Kingdom of Denmark, and it is also the place where she has lived for more than 20 years.

It was filled with her memories.

Be it sad, painful or beautiful.

She still remembers the sense of powerlessness she felt in the beginning.

But gradually, that pain gradually disappeared with Losger's birth.

And in the end, everything was wiped out.

Even that palace no longer exists.

Now, there is only a blank space in front of Theotis.

She still remembers the demolition dozens of days ago, and it is said that all available materials inside the palace have been utilized.

Collected treasures and works of art were auctioned off to raise food and treasury funds, and some of the materials were used to build city walls and other places.

In the end, the remaining part of the frame was burned clean by a fire.

"In the future... I won't come back again." She whispered.

Among the crowd of cheering people, the slightly bent woman could not help showing a sense of sadness.

However, she is so small that no one will notice her.

In this way, she followed the three soldiers slowly out of the open city gate.

There were obviously guards guarding them, but maybe it was because Studus was leading the way, or maybe it was because there were orders long before, so they didn't stop them in any way.

At last they came outside the Heroes' City, where several carriages were waiting before the stables.

And when he saw the small team, Theotis's mood, which had finally calmed down, caused waves again.

Not because of anything else, because those carriages are engraved with running wolf patterns.

There was even a flag on the roof of one of the gorgeous carriages, as if afraid that others would not know where the carriage belonged.

Wolf.

tribe of Irfin,

The Volsung family.

Netherlands.

These things mean too much to Theotis.

"Netherlands convoy."

Regardless of Theotis' sigh, Half walked towards the convoy.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Then, a woman stepped out of the carriage.

She was wearing leather armor, but her cloak had a wolf logo on it.

This means she is related to the Volsung clan.

"Not long," she said.

Then, her gaze swept over like this.

But at this time, she felt quite uncomfortable.

Because Theotis noticed that this woman seemed to be looking at him carefully.

"Hi..." she whispered.

In the end, she heard a helpless sigh.

"Greetings, madam, I am Chambermaid of the Great Lord of Hosts and Shieldmaid of the Court."

Chapter 52: The Storm on the Road

shield girl...

This word, which symbolizes high and low status, came out of her mouth so naturally.

The strength displayed by the kingdom and the king makes the maid extremely proud. The so-called status is not based on tradition, but on strength.

Even though the shield girl is just a nicer and nobler word among the series of titles of "house slave", no one dares to underestimate it precisely because of the strength of the master.

Naturally, Theotis himself is the same.

She didn't give random instructions on the basis of any other status, even though she once had a high status in the Netherlands.

Although the woman in front of her has already reported her family, claiming to be Siegfried's child's maid.

However, after all, she is not qualified to give random instructions.

Even, she has to be polite.

"Give me your backpack, please."

The inner hall attendant said.

She just stretched out her hands directly, and this kind of treatment inevitably made Theotis a little flustered.

This panic is not because of any shady secrets she has, but because of her subconscious self-doubt.

Is she really qualified to do this?

Was she entitled to be served by Siegfried's boy's valet?

she does not know.

All of a sudden, her mind was filled with such questions.

And in the end, her rambling thoughts gradually pieced together in her mind the scenes of memories that she never wanted.

Siegfried.

She has two impressions of this name.

One was the look of the baby she had endured the pain of giving birth to, only to be taken from her in the end.

At that time, he was still very young, so small that he couldn't even speak.

However, she is missing the long segment in the middle.

For 20 years, she didn't know what happened to the child.

And when she saw the child again, he had become a valiant hero no less than his father.

He wears a crown on his head, wears luxurious robes, and holds two legendary sword blades.

Perhaps, in this respect, he seems to be better than his father.

But the important thing is that she was vaguely aware of the lingering strangeness at that time.

The child was nothing like the childhood she remembered.

For her, the only thing that feels familiar is the mysterious and mysterious feeling between the so-called blood relatives.

She has never fulfilled her duties as a mother, so how can she settle down.

"I……"

Her lips opened and closed, as if to say something.

However, the sound stopped abruptly.

In the end, it was the voice of the maid in front of her that liberated her from the seemingly incomparably difficult thoughts.

"Miss?"

"That, thank you."

Facing the maid's eyes that seemed to contain something, Theotis handed her the package he was carrying.

It's not heavy, and it's even a little lighter than the big bag that Bodwall is carrying.

After receiving the package, she stuffed it into the carriage, which seemed quite spacious.

"Please get in the car, ma'am, we will start south, then enter the territory of the Gothic Kingdom, and finally enter the Kingdom of the Netherlands through the Jura Mountains."

"Don't you go directly from the Rhine?"

"Not everyone is willing to touch the current Rhine Ferry."

"why?"

"Because of the epidemic, ma'am, isn't this kind of rhetoric very popular in Denmark? Our kingdom once captured your Danish spies."

"what……"

"While our kingdom is suffering from the epidemic, you are still sowing discord, trying to stir up conflicts between the surrendered North Sea residents and us."

The maid said with a blank face.

"It was just a little bit closer, and we broke out in civil unrest."

In fact, Theotis felt something was wrong ever since he heard the maid's eccentric words.

In the end, after hearing these words, her relaxed mood suddenly became tense again.

"Sorry, I didn't know that," she whispered.

She even lowered her head in order to avoid the possibly piercing gaze of the maid.

Because of this, she didn't notice the subtle look on the maid's face at all.
