You and me under the world tree

And please note that the four adults here refer to the adults of the Volsung family.

And according to his thinking, there should be some porridge left in this pot, right?

In the end, good guy, Dietrich ate two-thirds of it by herself, drinking the porridge like water.

And in the end, she didn't show any overwhelmed appearance, but sat there very calmly, which made Huode take a few more glances.

"Ugh……"

In the end, feeling that he couldn't see why, Hodder finally just sighed.

But it's good that he didn't sigh, and he attracted Dietrich's attention just by making a sound like that.

To be honest, she just ate too much subconsciously, and this kind of appetite is actually nothing to her.

When she really needs to eat, she eats more than that.

So she didn't think there was any problem with her appetite.

However, when she heard Hodder's inexplicable sigh, she still felt that subtle uneasiness in her heart.

I don't know why, but she was quite uncomfortable anyway, so in the end, she simply stretched out her hand and scratched the back of her head.

"What's your look like..."

In the end, probably because she couldn't bear Hodder's subtle gaze, she couldn't help but speak.

At this moment, he just shook his head.

"I'm just curious. You characters with special abilities... seem to be particularly edible."

"..."

When Hodder bluntly mentioned this point, Dietrich didn't know what to say.

At this moment, the previous gloom in her heart had long since dissipated, and at this point, she was naturally only embarrassed.

And in this silent atmosphere, Hodder was not idle.

After waiting for the boiled vegetable porridge to cool completely, he began to gently feed the vegetable porridge to the awakened cub.

Anyway, Dieter Heier has already been weaned. Although it is better to feed milk products at this time, it is not a problem to eat some boiled vegetable porridge as a complementary food.

Speaking of which, Hodder himself is not a person who knows how to take care of children, but he still has a little understanding of some basic knowledge.

like baby food...

When the child is weaned, he should try some foods other than dairy products. If he keeps drinking milk, he will easily become dependent on dairy products to a certain extent in the future.

This will even produce a slight rejection of other foods.

Although in the eyes of adults, this kind of rejection is nothing, because they are not picky about food.

However, this kind of exclusion is very troublesome for the parents of the children.

Because until these little bastards are educated and understand things, they will only fight for their own interests through crying.

like food...

Once they become accustomed to dairy products and are unwilling to eat other foods, then parents will definitely feel a headache.

But on the other hand, Hodder is actually lazy.

You can use one pot to solve everyone's breakfast problem, so why spend more time making dairy products?

With this mentality, Hodder just fed Dieter Heier with a small spoon.

take a bite...

Although the child ate very little and slowly in every bite, there was a pure smile on his immature face.

"Sigh!"

"Okay, okay, don't move."

Seeing Dieter Heier suddenly waving his little arm, Hodder said in a low voice.

He laughed unconsciously, and then, he gently patted Dieter Heier's waving little hand away, and started feeding again.

His movements are slow and inexplicably boring.

At least, it seemed to Dietrich that this repetitive mechanical movement was extremely boring.

However, the man seemed to be enjoying it.

But maybe that shouldn't be called having fun?

At least, he shouldn't hate such trivial things.

Seeing the smile on the man's mouth, Dietrich couldn't help but have various thoughts and guesses in her heart.

Although long ago, she had a similar idea in her heart.

But almost every day, she's surprised by it.

In the final analysis, it is because of identity...

Dietrich herself is a standard member of the royal family, and those people who usually come into contact with seem to be accustomed to handing over their children to servants to raise them, because they often have more important things to do.

Even Hiltebrand is no exception...

However, the man in front of her clearly had a lofty status, but in terms of performance, she was completely different from those people she came into contact with.

"You like children very much," she whispered.

"Like? No... To be honest, I don't like children."

Then, her question received an answer that surprised her.

"Eh?"

"Children don't know how to advance or retreat, and sometimes they don't even know about etiquette. They are so skinny every day... After all, the cutest time for a child is when he can control his emotions and be serious and well-behaved."

"..."

"But sadly, that's not the case for most children, let alone babies."

"Wow!"

At this moment, Dieter Heier burst into tears.

Because Hodder kept pressing his little arm and not letting him move, he felt uncomfortable.

For a moment, that crying made Dietrich feel inexplicably upset.

"Look, that's it. Children can be said to be bored."

"But you seem patient."

"Get used to it, I still have experience with children."

"Is it because of Siegfried?"

"Well, he's one of them. I've also taken two other cubs. One of them is as naughty as the Volsungers, and the other is a little quieter."

"..."

At this moment, Dietrich remained silent.

After all, she also reads books, so she naturally knows something about the Netherlands and the Volsunger family.

So, she knew who Hodder was talking about.

Because of this, she felt that she couldn't answer the conversation at all.

But fortunately, Hodder didn't seem to have any intention of letting her answer the conversation.

"But, more importantly, if I can...I think a baby deserves some care anyway."

"..."

"What's the matter? This kind of thinking may be a little strange?"

Perhaps because he realized the weird look in Dietrich's eyes at the moment, Hodder couldn't help reaching out and scratching his cheek.

Then, he let out a long sigh.

In Dietrich's eyes, his expression was complicated.

"I don't have parents, so I understand how important caring is to a child."

In the camp in the early morning, there seemed to be a cool breeze blowing.

Chapter 31: Half and half

Suddenly, the warm atmosphere in the camp cooled down again.

Although Dietrich was staring at Hodder, she didn't know what she should say at this moment, let alone what she could do.

Because at this moment, she suddenly realized one thing: she never knew the man in the name of 'war' in front of her.

Hodder knew her origin, knew the secrets of the Gothic Kingdom, and even once met the woman who could theoretically be her mother: the demon Mehmet.

Because of these reasons, plus a period of time together, she does have a certain degree of trust in him.

But correspondingly, she realized that she didn't understand him at all.

A sage of the Volsung family and a close friend of the former human god of war Siegmund.

An excellent teacher who trained a generation of Lord of Armies Siegfried.

There are layers of halos on his body, but when you think about it carefully, most of these halos are related to the Volsunger family.

But aside from the halo of the Volsung family, does he still have an identity?

What kind of person was he before meeting Siegmund?

Regarding this point, she suddenly had an urge to understand.

But now is clearly not the time to ask these questions.

So, she just sat there, watching the silent man.

After forcibly ending the topic about the child, he didn't speak again, and just patted the child who suddenly cried.

In Dietrich's view, Hodder was already gentle enough.

He patted Dieter Heil's small body, and with the other hand, he wiped away the rice grains from the corner of the little beast's mouth with a handkerchief.

"Don't cry, don't cry." He whispered.

That comforting look is very much like a dedicated nanny in an aristocratic family.

However, Dieter Heier didn't seem to give face.

I don't know if it's because I feel uncomfortable just eating breakfast, or because I miss him getting used to dairy products.

At this time, he didn't stop crying at all, he just cried loudly over there.

"If it doesn't work, use magic to find out what he's thinking."

Finally, Dietrich said so.

It wasn't because she started to care about Dieter Heil, but because the brat's voice was so loud that it annoyed her very much.

From her point of view, using magic to find out the child's needs and then fulfilling him would be the end of the matter.

Save yourself crying on his side.

"We're leaving soon, we can't let him cry all the time, can we?"

"fine."

Then, facing Dietrich's gaze, Hodder spoke.

Then, just as she watched, a magical glow appeared in his hand.

And Dietrich could tell at a glance that this was definitely not some kind of detection magic.

If you have to say it, it is a kind of magic to force the calmness of the spirit.

A combined sequence based on the original seventh and eighth runes.

Generally speaking, this is a magic that is enough to extinguish the rising anger of others and completely calm the emotional person's heart.

However, this kind of magic actually has invalid characters.
