You and me under the world tree

And the final result was the Wolf Bone Legion.

This legion directly under His Majesty the King is responsible for education, and a large number of reserve soldiers will be assigned to other border legions to supplement after learning.

The retired soldiers from the Frontier Legion will join the Wolfbone Legion to continue training the next generation.

Under this virtuous circle, it is foreseeable that the Frontier Corps will never lack young and strong fighters, and their actual combat experience will also become a treasure for the next generation.

And more importantly, the king's influence will always hang over the land of the Netherlands.

However, these are 'institutional' issues.

"I'm worried about people's hearts. I'm afraid the gossip in the court will become troublesome." Half said quietly.

Chapter 55: Familiar and Unfamiliar

No matter how perfect the system is.

No matter how beautiful its ideal state is, it is undeniable that human beings will never match the various systems with good intentions.

Even if power is dispersed, as long as it is linked to interests, some people hope to use the power at hand that symbolizes responsibility to seek interests for themselves.

They stir up the situation in their own positions, but they don't care what will happen to the people at the bottom.

In the end, the conflicts of various interests and powers will eventually evolve into a huge whirlpool.

As long as they are in the palace, no one can get out of the vortex.

Even leaving is the same.

As one of the founding heroes and generals, although Harf and his confidant Bodwall had already chosen to give up real power, they chose to travel around the world while retaining the title and treatment of the lord.

However, his identity may still be a thorn in the flesh for some people.

Forming factions and working around seems to be the instinct of human beings.

Thinking of this, Half finally sighed deeply.

"Enough has happened recently, Bodwall, and I don't want any more incidents."

And amidst Half's sigh, Bodwall could only shake his head helplessly.

Why can't he see it?

The Raven Legion does not belong to any faction now, because the current head of the Legion is Witsag who once fought with them in all directions.

He is also a man of Harf, and he is also only loyal to the Lord of Armies.

In the face of some default so-called officialdom rules, he also chose to ignore them.

"If this vortex is more chaotic, I'm afraid everyone will be in trouble."

Finally, Bodwall sighed softly.

But soon, his subconsciously frowning brows eased away.

"I still think that we don't need to think so much, after all, we don't have other demands."

After hearing what Xiao Zhanxiong said, Half himself was taken aback for a moment, and then he couldn't help laughing.

"That's right, at least in the Netherlands, it's easy to get out."

Not because of anything else, because His Majesty the king they worked for did not have that kind of excessive suspicion at all.

In contrast, he has actually dispersed his power as much as possible.

It is true that he needs to review a lot of things, so he is usually very busy.

But this kind of busyness is more of a supervisory role.

Except for the vital military power, the entire kingdom can operate efficiently without the intervention of the king.

As for Half and Bodwall, they themselves are not interested in various interests.

Because they are not greedy.

For such them, other people's ideas are simply unnecessary.

dignity?

faction?

interest?

There is no need to think too much, anyway, as long as the king at the top knows what kind of people they are and doesn't doubt them.

"So don't worry about anything."

Bodwall patted him on the shoulder.

"Also, I don't think His Majesty who is far away in the City of Wrath of Sky knows anything about it."

Only those who have truly held important responsibilities in the army understand how secure the young Lord of Armies is over the army.

In the end, Half the Raven accepted the welcome ceremony prepared by the legion he once commanded.

Under the guidance of more than 1000 soldiers, the Dutch convoy rested in a nearby town.

It was a very lively banquet.

Although the soldiers strictly observed the discipline, so they did not drink alcohol, but that night was quite happy.

There were resounding war songs, and the crowd joined in.

The whole town exudes a cheerful atmosphere.

And it was this kind of welcome banquet that made Theotis, who was a stranger, a little at a loss.

Half and Bodwall are well-deserved protagonists, because the Raven Legion itself was built around those people brought by Half.

And today's Legion Commander Wittsager is also their confidant.

As for Studus, although he is a Gothic warrior, everyone knows that he once spoke out for Harf.

This alone is enough for the soldiers of the Raven Legion to let go of their prejudices and accept him.

And in this welcome banquet, only Theotis is an outsider, and only she cannot blend in.

Fortunately, those maids were willing to accompany her on this noisy night.

But unfortunately, including the court servants who talked to her before and explained various matters in the Netherlands, they kept a certain distance.

They clearly distinguish between superior and inferior, so some of her innermost words can only be stuck in her throat, and there is no way to get them out.

In the end, she could only sigh.

Then, they embarked on the journey again in the morning of the second day.

After all, Half and Bodwall still need to report to His Majesty the King about Goth, so they will not continue to stay at the border.

During this process, Theotis, who had been observing, clearly noticed the mentality of the surrounding soldiers.

Not to mention Half and Bodwall, the shield maidens who accompanied her also smiled from the bottom of their hearts.

"I'll be home in a few days."

Theotis could hear laughter from outside.

Unconsciously, she also lifted the curtain of the carriage and stared at the outside scenery.

In her impression, the entire territory of the Netherlands has changed drastically.

Not decades ago, in fact, even a few years ago when she came to visit with her children as a Danish emissary.

Not only the ground has been completely repaired, but the towns in the distance also reveal simple city defense facilities.

Not to mention those incomparably abrupt towers standing on the plain.

"It's such a tall tower again, what are they used for?"

"Of course it is used to deliver urgent messages, ma'am, in case a large-scale border conflict breaks out, these towers alone can deliver the message to the royal city as soon as possible."

Even though it is said so, there is still no loophole.

However, Theotis still felt a little strange.

Although I don't know where the problem is.

If you have to say it, it's probably a waste, right?

After thinking for a long time, she could only think of this.

But she didn't speak, just followed the convoy all the way.

In this way, after a few more days, they arrived at the City of Wrath of Sky.

From a distance, a flag was erected on the majestic city wall, and the wolf-patterned flag rustled in the wind, announcing the royal power of the Volsong clan.

However, compared to those changes in the outer towns, there are no other redundant changes in this city except for an extra circle of outer city bazaars.

What's more, she has seen these before.

So Theotis didn't feel too surprised.

Compared with these, another thing in front of her is more important.

"I'll meet you soon..."

Chapter 56: The Painting Style of the Sage's House

Siegfried.

The child lived in the same great cities and palaces as his father.

And in the past, Theotis also imagined countless times what the meeting between them would be like.

However, this imagination was finally ruthlessly shattered a few years ago.

Because at that time, the young Lord of Armies did not have the idea of ​​receiving his biological mother in private.

There wasn't even any special treatment, but she was treated like an ordinary kingdom envoy.

At the banquet, he never treated her differently, nor did he see her face to face.

It's as if she doesn't exist at all.

This situation made Theotis feel sad but also a little fortunate.

After all, she didn't know what to do with herself.

If Siegfried really received her, what kind of attitude would he have?

Regarding this point, in fact, she already had a cruel answer in her heart.

The attitude of indifference and unwillingness to contact directly has already revealed his tendency, and it is nothing more than giving a positive response.

However, she couldn't accept such a result and such a positive response.

And because she couldn't accept it, she would rather escape than face it.

She wanted to know news about him, but she didn't want to know the positive attitude of the Lord of Armies towards her.

This is the situation now.

But, no matter what, they must now face each other.

Thinking of this, Theotis couldn't help but feel a little breathless.

What should I do?

What should I do?

In the end, the carriage that had stopped and was inspected by the guards at the gate of the city moved forward slowly again.

It looks like it passed the inspection.

But the moment the wheel turned, Theotis felt helpless.

She didn't know who to confide the fear in her heart, and she didn't know who to tell the uneasiness lingering in her mind.

Even, she deeply realized that no one here is willing to stand by her side anymore.

Because this is the city of Skywrath of the Volsong clan, this is the ancient kingdom established by the Ilfen clan, and she is just a stranger, an outsider.

Thinking of this, Theotis suddenly lowered the curtain of the carriage.
