You and me under the world tree

Moreover, the sword is at the statue at the entrance of the mausoleum, held by the sculpted warrior.

Compared with the "sword of gods" that seems to be difficult to pull out and obtain recognition, the souvenirs imitated by the sages in the legend seem to be easier to obtain.

Therefore, one can imagine the allure of this sword itself.

Because of the existence of this sword, the envoys of many kingdoms did not rush back, but instead found various reasons to temporarily stay in the city of Skywrath King.

This is actually exactly what Siegfried they intended.

According to their thinking, once someone couldn't suppress the greed in his heart and had some thoughts about this sword, then this is a good time for the lion to open his mouth.

However, the reality is not always as smooth as expected.

Even though the Kingdom of the Netherlands had thrown such a bait, the fish did not just bite.

They are still observing, and this observation is nearly a month and a half.

During this time, someone obviously chose to give up—or, in fact, they didn't care about it.

For example, the ruler of Hungary: King Etzel.

In fact, he didn't stay here for long at all. He just waited until his wife and his subordinates drove all the cubs to the Netherlands, and then left after watching the cubs be housed.

From the looks of it, King Etzel seemed to only be giving gifts, and he was only here to congratulate him, which seemed to be full of sincerity.

But in fact, the Warcraft cubs he gave away were not classified in any special way as the sage once mentioned.

That is to say, all the subsequent work of sorting and breeding has to be handed over to the residents of the Netherlands.

Even, because of the ferocious nature of Warcraft itself, Siegfried must not hand over the raising work to civilians.

Therefore, he had to assign his most elite fighters: the Skywrath Guards to guard—at least it seemed so on the surface.

Because of this reason, Hagen, who is the palace minister and the commander-in-chief of the Skywrath Guards, couldn't stay in the royal city.

It can be said that at least until the planned huge pasture is built, the entire royal city will be at the emptiest moment in history.

These details imply one thing all the time: the city defense garrison is tight.

At the moment when all the most elite Skywrath Guards are called out, this is almost the best opportunity for those who covet the Sword of Glory in the mausoleum.

Because that tree is a monument...

What is a monument?

That's close.

Although they have no way to enter the depths of the royal tomb, they can get close to the huge stone tablet engraved with the names of the soldiers who died in battle and the sculptures that symbolize the soldiers.

However, in this case, they still didn't make any moves, which was a bit disappointing.

"Don't worry about anything."

Just as Siegfried was carefully recalling what he had done in the recent period, Hilda's voice sounded in his ears.

Although they were obviously standing some distance away, Hilda's voice was clearly transmitted to his ears.

However, under such circumstances, no one knows what Her Royal Highness the Princess of Iceland is talking about.

Those who didn't know thought that Siegfried was worried about the safety of the two guests out of politeness.

In fact, Hilda also deliberately turned the topic to this side.

"The wealth of the Netherlands is seen, and you are also a young and promising monarch."

real monarch...

"So, I guess there's nothing to threaten your guests, is there?"

"Just be safe."

Facing Hilda's mischievous gaze, Siegfried finally couldn't help but sigh.

At the same time, his gaze turned not far away.

There, he seemed to be able to see a figure.

"The recent world is not peaceful." He whispered

Although Nanna didn't know what happened, but at this moment, she knew that the young dragon slaying warrior in front of her was extremely worried about her friend.

Therefore, she couldn't help showing an envious smile.

"so good……"

A hero deserves a beauty, and it's a kind of match, no matter when it is, this is a lucky thing.

However, she didn't know that, in fact, her friends envied her very much.

I envy her innocence and cheerfulness.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Seeing Hilda staring at her, Nanna couldn't help asking.

Then the princess of Iceland shook her head.

"No, nothing."

Chapter 56: A sense of crisis!

From beginning to end, Nanna was kept in the dark.

During her stay in the Netherlands, she had a very happy time.

Although the customs of atriums around the world are generally similar, there are always some differences between different places.

And more importantly, Nanna is from Norway—that is a kingdom on the edge of the northern peninsula, and that land is known for being barren and ferocious.

And for her, the milder environment in the Netherlands naturally made her feel extremely novel.

Although there are no hot springs here, there is no rough and unrestrained north wind environment like Bergen in Norway and Smokey Harbor in Iceland.

However, Nanna is a girl after all.

There has always been a saying in the northern peninsula that 'a strong north wind can make a heroic warrior', but she actually likes the environment of Skywrath King City very much.

And more importantly, as Hilda's best friend, sometimes she could even secretly follow her best friend to the garden behind the palace.

Nanna could have sworn that the garden, set around the ancient Child Tree, was the prettiest garden she had ever seen.

However, the only pity is that the golden-edged roses presented by the Kingdom of Burgundy did not seem to be cultivated, so they were not planted in the garden, otherwise the whole garden should have become more beautiful.

In short, no matter what, Nanna can be said to be quite happy during this more than a month, and the depression in her heart dissipated.

Although it was because she failed to achieve the goal of getting close to Prince Dietrich or His Majesty Siegfried, she didn't take those things to heart.

To her, she did make an appearance, but Prince Dietrich seemed unapproachable, and the young Lord of Armies Siegfried was a man of his own, and even the princess of Burgundy His Highness never got close to him.

Then Nanna is even more impossible.

As for the reason, she is also very clear: the young and promising His Majesty the King already has his own heart.

"Actually, I think we can stay in Netherlands for a while longer."

After thinking of those things, Nanna couldn't help saying this to her best friend.

At this moment, the two princesses are sitting in a magnificent carriage.

Their route was very simple. First, they set off from Skywrath King City and went directly to the largest port city: Amstel under the escort of the guards.

Because of the signed trade agreement, there have always been Icelandic merchant ships there in theory.

Moreover, because Hilda had contacted his father a long time ago, the Icelandic official ships were already on standby there.

And when the time comes, they will take a boat and return to Yangang along the safe route that has been opened up long ago.

However, even though the route has been set and there seems to be no problem, Hilda still seems to be immersed in some kind of worry.

So, when Nanna brought up certain topics, she didn't respond at all.

This inevitably made Nanna feel a little strange.

"Hilda?"

It wasn't until she called out several times that she came back to her senses.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

This distraction of hers didn't actually look normal, but Nanna was clearly thinking otherwise.

So, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and laughed.

"How long has it been since you started missing him?" She smiled in a low voice

"what??"

At first, Hilda didn't react, but after realizing what the girl beside her was talking about, her fair face couldn't help turning red.

"What did you say..."

After seeing Nanna talking about these topics, she couldn't help muttering.

But in the end, her voice inevitably became smaller.

"Actually... I'm worried about our safety."

After hesitating for a moment, Hilda still said these words.

At the same time, her words inevitably made Nanna show a subtle look.

Her Royal Highness the beautiful princess of Norway even showed a playful expression.

She didn't even mean to hide those thoughts in her heart.

"What to pretend, this is not something to be shy about."

"No, I really just..."

"You should know him well, right? How could his country be unsafe?"

When hearing Nanna's slightly teasing words, Hilda instinctively wanted to refute something.

But when the words came to her lips, she found that she couldn't say anything.

From an emotional point of view, she certainly agrees with what Nanna said.

From a rational point of view, even if she wanted to criticize, she couldn't seem to find a place to start.

Not because of anything else, because this is the truth.

Generally speaking, there are gangsters fleeing within the borders and occupying mountains as kings. This is basically because the local lords or officials are greedy and the money is not in place.

It is not ruled out that there are indeed natural villains, but for most people, as long as the money is in place and they can afford food, who is willing to become a bandit?

But now, because roads are being built everywhere and infrastructure is being built everywhere, it is not difficult to find a job at all, so no one is willing to be an illegal gangster.

As for the sea, let alone.

No blind guy dares to run wild on the route of the Netherlands, including those so-called crazy pirates.

This is not because of other reasons, because the commander who is now in charge of the Netherlands Navy and stationed at Fort Helder is the pirate queen Hewale.

As a character who can steer a ship to gallop in the northern seas and open up living land there, she has always known the rules of action of those pirates.

Therefore, no one dared to touch the bad luck of the Netherlands. For the pirates, they would rather openly go to Norway and the northern peninsula to which Gitland belongs to plunder, rather than wander around the surrounding areas of the Netherlands.

Because the northern peninsula may survive a bloody and brutal fight, but in the Netherlands, they don't even have the possibility of escaping.

Even, because of the reason of drifting in the northern waters, He Huale even knew where they were stationed on the small island in the event of a shortage of supplies.

Therefore, there is no room for pirates to survive at all.

Their itinerary was fairly safe from start to finish—and indeed, if you think about it from the usual point of view.

But what if?

Thinking of Siegfried's entrustment to him, Hilda could not help but feel a little headache now.

"It's basic crisis common sense that we can't let our guard down until we get back to Iceland."

After thinking for a while, she spoke.

However, Nanna didn't care about this.

Compared with these, she actually cared about another thing more.
