You and me under the world tree

Facing Dietrich's delicate and fair face, Nanna finally took a deep breath.

"So be it."

The girl looked a little self-destructive, and she didn't know why.

In short, after guessing Dietrich's identity, Nanna's behavior seemed a little weird.

This kind of weirdness might not be noticeable at first, but when she made this extremely abrupt but unreasonable self-introduction, Hilda just stared at her with a weird expression.

But at this juncture, Hilda didn't ask any more questions, she just grabbed her best friend's hand, and then walked away slowly.

At the same time, Nanna's abrupt self-introduction may have finally caught her attention, and Dietrich's eyes were only on the beautiful back of Her Royal Highness Princess of Norway.

"A bird in a cage..."

Without personal strength and value, you can only do these things.

…………

"Nanna, what were you doing before? You shouldn't be introducing yourself in that atmosphere anyway? Can you stare at a girl for so long, do you think he is a good person?"

While walking on the street, Hilda couldn't help complaining about what his best friend did.

This has nothing to do with taking sides or anything, it's just because Hilda is worried that his friend will be deceived.

"Don't be fooled by his exaggerated appearance, nor by his reputation."

Listening to her best friend's nagging words, Nan Na stared at her face, and then she couldn't help showing a helpless smile.

"This is my father's request, you just think I'm finishing my homework."

"Your father? What did that old man Gevarus ask of you?"

To this, Nanna didn't answer anything, but her slightly bitter face explained something.

"Is that so..."

And soon, Hilda herself realized it, and she directly held her hand. .

"Listen to me, Nanna, if you don't like it, just refuse it. This kind of request is stupid."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Speaking of which, Hilda still has a little understanding of the so-called Mr. Breda.

Because during the time in the northern sea more than a year ago, the sage had already told them about this matter.

Although Hilda didn't have any direct contact with the God of Light named Breda, Badr, but no matter what angle she stood at, she had always disliked gods, so she naturally didn't want her best friend to have anything to do with gods.

After all, that is a god.

Even the king of the gods who is well-known and worshiped in the atrium world is not a scum who likes to deceive girls, gets tired of playing, and then abandons it?

Although Hilda has always had a vague impression of her mother, because she can only glimpse a corner of her mother's personality from her legacy and her father's narrative.

But, as a normal person, a normal woman, of course she resented such behavior.

So even with that, she would of course transfer Odin's character to his children.

God of Light Baldr...

Compared with other gods, there are actually not many stories about Baldr, the God of Light, and the few legends actually describe how gentle and popular he is.

But so what?

Anyone who is a little bit sober will not randomly substitute his gentleness into his attitude towards human beings.

Even if the king of the gods talks sweetly to the princess of the giant and then abandons him cruelly, how about the short-lived human beings?

And because Hilda has always held this mentality, when she returned to Iceland and heard Nanna crying to her about Breda's actions, she was not surprised.

After all, the gods never valued humans.

God of Light Badr likes Nanna?

Maybe, but if you want to say that this so-called liking has been tested and honed through the years like her parents, that's bullshit.

Compared to this statement, Hilda prefers to believe that this is just the so-called 'love at first sight'.

In Hilda's view, because the lifespan of the gods is extremely long, not to mention their internal conditions, anyway, the lower body must be the main body externally.

Even, thinking a little bit worse, Nanna might just be played around and then be abandoned, because her own status is not important.

Just a princess of a kingdom...

Even if he didn't think about it that way, if he thought about it a little further, then Hilda felt that it was because the gods didn't like Iceland or they simply had plans for the northern peninsula.

In short, no matter what, her perception of that high god was like this.

Because of this, from the perspective of friends and girlfriends, she would never agree with her girlfriends to run away with the gods.

In any case not...

Fortunately, the so-called Mr. Breda will not appear for a while.

Moreover, because she was dissatisfied with the so-called good son-in-law her father had found for her, she spent the whole year living in Iceland, and at most she was walking around Yangang and surrounding areas.

For her, going home is a matter of taking a boat, and there is also a special route between Yangang and Bergen, the royal city of Norway.

If he wanted to go home, at least he had to wait until her anger subsided.

She even wrote letters home during this time, and blamed her father for finding such an irresponsible husband for herself.

Her life is so peaceful and monotonous.

But in fact, she didn't have any dissatisfaction personally.

It's good to be calm.

But now, more than a year later, this peace has finally been shattered.

"call……"

Sitting on the chair, Nanna couldn't help but began to look around.

Now, she is sitting in a slightly rough palace.

Mutton and beef are being roasted on the huge bonfire raised in front of you. The cheers of the surroundings and the cheerful music played by the bards prove the current situation: a banquet.

To be precise, it is a grand banquet hosted by Siegfried, the master of the place and the future monarch of the Netherlands, in order to show his friendship as a landlord.

However, this kind of banquet is not everyone can participate.

However, according to Midgard's traditional customs, as long as you have passed the threshold of this banquet and can participate in the banquet held by the king, there will be no status difference at the banquet except for the host.

At this moment, everyone has only one identity: the guest of Siegfried, Lord of Armies.

In fact, there is no strict seating order here, strictly speaking, it is where you want to sit.

And Nanna herself was sitting next to her best friend, Princess Hilda of Iceland.

It is very close to Siegfried on the throne, so Nanna can easily see the dragon-slaying hero.

At this moment, he was wearing luxurious clothes, and although he did not wear a crown, he had a smile on his face, and his every move was filled with a sense of gentle reserve.

The cousin of his best friend who had met several times in the Icelandic palace has successfully regained his position and will be crowned king soon.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think of the letter her father sent to her before.

The content of the letter is very simple. First, I greeted Her Royal Highness, who had been away from home for more than a year, with condolences, and asked her some daily questions.

However, these are just pretense.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the letter concluded with a request.

His Majesty the King hoped that she would come to this newborn City of Wrath with the Icelandic envoys to reunite with her family.

There was nothing wrong with the letter originally coming here, but what really disgusted Nanna was the appendix at the end of the letter.

Because of the king's enthronement ceremony, all the kingdoms are bound to show some face, and even the Hungarian Empire, which is extremely far away, has to send its own envoys, let alone other people.

At that time, a group of young talents will gather in the City of Wrath of Sky, where she can meet people she likes.

The expression of the whole letter is like this. It doesn't seem to have an imperative tone, but it is full of some kind of inductiveness. In the letter, it even tries to praise two heroes:

Siegfried, Lord of Armies of the Netherlands.

Gothic conqueror of giants - Dietrich.

And once thinking of these, Nanna couldn't help but feel a headache.

Although the letter from her father, King Gevarus, seemed to be for her benefit, she hadn't done nothing for more than a year.

After all, those things in Breda still gave her a psychological shadow, so she had the idea of ​​longing to control her own destiny.

Not wanting to be a vase, she began to have the cheek to ask her best friend to be her teacher, and then tutored the most basic court knowledge by herself.

Even, she is still learning what her sisters learned.

In just one year, not to mention fully proficient, but at least she can analyze the situation with her three-legged cat kung fu.

In the final analysis, this is also a last resort.

Because the Kingdom of Norway does not say it is dangerous now, but it does have potential threats.

As for what that threat is...

While sipping the fruit wine in her hand, she cast her eyes on the woman beside her.

She was wearing a fur coat, but under that coat was a metal armor.

But at this moment, what is actually most awe-inspiring is the hideous scar on her face.

Pirate Queen Howard...

After careful calculation, she even had a deep blood feud with her father.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Although Nanna herself didn't really want to admit this, but for today's Norway...to be precise, for King Gevarus's family, the newborn Netherlands is the biggest threat.

In fact, this threat does not come from Siegfried himself, who is the future king, but from the woman under him: Hervale.

In fact, even though about a year has passed, the turmoil in the Kingdom of Norway still hasn't subsided.

This is not just a matter of turning over old accounts, but because someone has been watching here.

No one ever hoped that there would be hidden dangers around their kingdom, and Gevarus was the same.

For him, this matter obviously has room for turnover.

marriage...

This is the best way to solve hidden dangers for Norway today.

However, this is not to say that the marriage itself is so high-end.

In fact, tying the ties of two countries to one woman is not a brilliant strategy, at least not one that can be counted on.

What's more, the Netherlands is not without lessons learned.

Siegmund's younger sister Zigni once married the Gothic king, but in the end, the greedy king took advantage of the bold character of the Irfin tribe to frame them all.

Siegmund's parents and brother died tragically. Not only was the kingdom annexed, but a young man like him had to bear blood and blood.

Because of this lesson, the people of the Volsung family would not even believe in any marriage, from Siegmund to Helgi.

Naturally, Siegfried is no exception.

He is not self-made, but was brought up by Siegmund's close friend, a sage who followed the once-new Volsung family in the south and north.

As wise as he is, he will definitely not let Siegmund's children commit the genocide of the Irfin tribe.

In the final analysis, the marriage is only a nominal union, so that the Netherlands has no excuse to directly attack Norway-unless the interests are too great.

For the Kingdom of Norway today, this alliance method is certainly not the best choice, because it does not necessarily bring any benefits to the Kingdom.

Because of Siegfried's initial series of confusing operations, most of the kingdoms chose to wait and see, and even because they didn't want to make a loss-making business, they didn't even sign any mutually beneficial treaties.

The Kingdom of Iceland was the first to conclude a treaty with the original Volsung family, and they concluded a trade related to ore.

Moreover, because of the abolition of tariffs, most businessmen in Iceland now tend to come to the Netherlands to do business.

Because of the people-friendly policy of the Netherlands, there is no additional charge for the route between Iceland and the Netherlands. Although a little property is also charged to maintain normal operating expenses, the charges are obviously better than other kingdoms in the northern peninsula. Quite a few.
