You and me under the world tree

The burning flames swept away quickly and became unstoppable in an instant.

At the same time, the shouts from inside also began to change.

At the beginning, the guards were busy catching the assassin and protecting the lord and his family, but soon, another burden was added to their shoulders: fighting the fire.

But the fire was spreading so fast that they were powerless to stop it.

In the end, the flames emanating from the lord's palace became the most beautiful scenery in Imst.

It grabs attention straight away.

"Fire! Fire!"

Under the night, the fire became more and more vigorous, and it was even particularly conspicuous, even on the cliffs in the distance.

And above the mountains in Tyrol, two figures stood side by side.

Naturally they were Hodder and Dietrich.

The big rose garden is located deep in the mountains, so they planned to spend the night on the mountains.

But what I didn't expect was that the camp had just been prepared here, and a 'big surprise' was prepared for them there.

"It's really bright enough."

Not knowing what to say, Huode just laughed dryly.

In fact, they are quite far from the city of Imst.

But even so, the fire was still extremely dazzling.

"It looks like they're starting to do it."

"Ah."

After hearing what Dietrich said, Hodder also restrained the so-called inappropriate smile on his face.

In fact, this kind of thing has always been within their expectations.

Either way, Limstein couldn't survive.

As the lord of the Grimes region, he was doomed not to survive because of his secret dealings and collusion with Hungary.

What's more, the taxation and collection in his territory has reached a heinous level.

Perhaps, that layer after layer of exploitation has nothing to do with him, but the people under him are working hard in the name of supporting the front line.

But who made him the lord?

Colluding with Hungary and betraying the frontier army and his continued collection of supplies in the territory are two different things.

But since they all collided, and there happened to be a soldier from the Frontier Legion who was involved in both events.

Then the matter is unclear.

"Only death can put an end to these."

Howard said in a low voice.

"But this fire is too big."

Just as Hodder was watching the somewhat penetrating flame, Dietrich couldn't help but raise her head.

At this moment, she stared at the sky.

Above the night sky, the moon god Mani is dutifully pulling the seemingly cold moonlight chariot and galloping, announcing the present moment.

But obviously, what she cares about is not the moon god, but those who can fly in the air.

"It must be attracted, this fire is too conspicuous."

"Ah."

For this, Howard did not deny.

"But even if it is attracted, it is irreparable, because the fire was originally an excuse to cover up the real killing."

He could tell at a glance that these were just small tricks that could not be put on the table.

But I have to say that although it is rough, it is very easy to use.

"At that time, people will only pay attention to the fire. As for Lord Limstein and his family, I think they will be buried in the sea of ​​fire."

But what the reason is, this must be the final public announcement.

"Actually, I'm more curious about other things."

"what?"

"How on earth will they completely occupy this land, unless they have claimed power in their hands, otherwise, the next thing will become very troublesome."

"..."

In this regard, Dietrich remained silent.

She also understands this.

In the atrium world, the power of the lord is hereditary like the king, and the general reference is the theory of blood.

And once there are no direct descendants, this land may soon fall into disputes.

"I'm going to write a letter."

After hesitating for a moment, she spoke.

"I will let Hilt pay attention to this aspect."

"Aren't you going back?"

"It's not my turn to worry about this kind of thing."

Her Royal Highness turned around and gave the sage the back of his head.

"I'm going to write a letter."

Chapter 13: Bai'an City's Response

A slightly long night passed like this.

It was bound to be a busy night in Imst, as outsiders were mobilized quickly after the fire was detected.

Because of various restrictions, it was of course impossible for them to take advantage of this chaotic situation to rush into the palace.

But at least they were able to stop the fire from spreading further, and in the end, the fire was brought under control.

Only the world where Limstein was injured by the lord was completed like this.

And this is bound to set off a huge storm.

But obviously, these things have nothing to do with the current Hodder and Dietrich.

Hodder simply doesn't care about this kind of thing, because those uncontrollable variables that have nothing to do with the Netherlands can't affect the overall situation.

And Dietrich's own attitude was also clearly expressed before.

She is not that generous, and there is no way to ignore Wittig's betrayal no matter what.

A smile to obliterate all grievances?

nonexistent.

It was a blessing that she ignored him and simply ignored him.

And Wittig and the others must also be responsible for their own actions. After all, everyone is an adult, and there will be no parents who will come out to take responsibility and muddle along.

From the standpoint of the Gothic princess, what she can do is to promptly notify the cronies who are currently guarding Beian City.

Weapon Master Hiltebrand.

The only thing worth mentioning is probably the way the letter is written.

If it were changed to the past, letters could only be transported manually by couriers, or messages could be delivered by carrier pigeons.

However, this approach is risky.

Especially after treating those guys in the sky as enemies, this method of letter delivery is even more problematic.

Because it is particularly vulnerable to tampering.

From the moment when human history began, it is unknown how many good letters were tampered with into demonstrations, which eventually caused a series of unnecessary fights.

That's the kind of thing those guys in the sky like to do.

After really knowing this, both Hodder and Dietrich tried to avoid traditional means of communication.

However, what should we do when the time comes when we have to choose to communicate with other people?

The answer is to enhance existing means of communication.

The dwarves of the Nibelung Kingdom are now keen to create all kinds of gadgets, ranging from underground speeding trains to huge urban buildings.

A variety of equipment that is small enough to be almost automated.

In terms of communication, the dwarves have developed rapidly.

In this regard, it can be called a hundred flowers blooming.

Some people put the direction of thinking on real-time communication, so there are mirrors fixed on the train and underground in the palace.

And some people put their thinking on the transmission of letters.

Although up to now, the dwarves have not made any breakthroughs, and they are far from reaching the modern level in Hodder's impression.

Not to mention extension transfers and the like, until now, this kind of information transmission is in pairs.

But even so, this is a huge improvement compared to previous levels.

Because it transmits messages without any time interval at all.

'Da da da'

In the study room of the inner hall of Beian City, the weapon master sitting here just stared at the peculiar device on the table.

It looks a little plain, with a bottle of ink embedded in it, and a metal arm-like carving on the other side.

Then, the 'arm' moved like this, it picked up the quill, dipped it in ink and started writing.

Soon, a letter will be completed.

And Hiltebrand can recognize it at a glance, this is the handwriting of Her Highness the Princess.

The principle is actually pure imitation, and anyone can use it.

That's why it's inexplicably amazing.

"I'm still too old."

After staring at the unique device for a long time, Hiltebrand couldn't help but let out a foul breath.

Maybe it's old, he can't help feeling tired.

No, to be precise, it should be difficult to accept new things like this in a short period of time.

But soon, the weapon master's frown relaxed.

The reason is simpler.

"But having said that, this thing is really useful."

Pulling out the letter that was already full of content, he began to carefully examine the contents of the letter.

And soon, the relaxed expression on his face disappeared.

All that was left was a lingering sense of helplessness.

"Wittig, Frontier Corps."
