When Nils received Zoya's message, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. This is a good opportunity to revitalize the family, and he must act now. At this time, one step ahead, one step ahead, will be step by step.

He knew the situation in Northland very well, because his daughter Zoya was there, living in the city of Bran. Bran's open-mindedness, sooner or later, will spread throughout the land. By the time wizards flocked to it, these original forerunners, as long as they weren't too lucky, would take their place.

He knew he didn't have much time left, and maybe the news had already started to spread when Bran told Zoya. His only advantage is that he doesn't need to be cautious and tentative, he doesn't need to be suspicious. When those who watched and tempted reacted, they could only look at their backs and lament.

He couldn't help but feel a little proud, and when everyone chose to wait and see, he sent his daughter to Bran. Those cynicisms are now only envy. The opposition in the family finally disappeared completely when Bran killed all sides for the last time. The people began to fear him, and he was no longer the Nils who had hesitantly entered the Northland with his daughter. The whole family started listening to him, and it was a good feeling!

Zoya, now the eyes of the whole family are on her. Nils resolutely put a stop to those who wanted to exert influence through Zoya. He firmly believes that as long as Zoya is by Bran's side, it is irreplaceable influence.

From the news that came back, Zoya had changed a little bit. From a warrior's point of view, that was a welcome improvement. But from a father's point of view, something doesn't seem good, and his daughter begins to become bloodthirsty. The girl who liked to be in the dueling arena, yelling at him for weapons, for his fairness, made Nils feel strange.

How could it be so easy to be Bran's friend? How much pressure did his daughter, Zoya, have to be under to behave like this?Or does Zoya feel that she will never be able to return to her former home. It wasn't like that at first, but now, who wants her back?

Nobody! Even he, the father, no longer wanted her back.

The news spread as fast as it had wings. Far beyond Nils's expectations, but one thing was still in his calculations, and the crowd, accustomed to intrigues, began to hesitate to be cautious and tentative. By this time, his men had already gone to the Northland.

It's just that he completely ignored the dragoon.

......

Dragoon, without any hesitation. Out of their knowledge of the Northlanders, or out of their knowledge of power, they didn't think it was necessary for Bran to use any means on it.

It's just that Hall, who got the news, fell into a frenzy. What were their previous actions, what were the dead people, what did he do!?

Under the spell of his old friend Gru, he led his companion to his death. Die worthless, die with no dignity.

He eased up a little, and fell to the trough again. Those who died, began to appear in dreams. Everyone was whispering to him, telling him the joy of death. There was temptation in that voice, the temptation of death.

Hall is no longer important, and he even begins to miss the time when he was repeatedly questioned. At that time, at least people were still looking at him. He couldn't go on like this, he needed to prove himself again.

By the time people reacted, Hall had been gone for days. He went to Sandstone City alone, and that's where things began to change. Before that, he had always fantasized that Bran and his daughter would have a good future. As a father, how can he not see his daughter's thoughts?

He is Hall, a dragoon with a strong mind. How did Gru's words affect him? Those who died in the dream seemed to indicate something. Even though he is deaf and exhausted, he is still Dragoon Hall, and he still has the ability to find the truth.

......

The scholars stationed near Sandstone City are now in a difficult situation. The camps here are rather rudimentary, and the onset of winter has halted their construction. The only nearby city that could provide them with labor was Northland. But there was a shortage of labor, and it was clear that Bran would not help in that regard.

Large-scale redeployments require ample time for preliminary preparations, which makes it difficult for reinforcements to arrive. There has also been no new progress in the study of the dead. When it comes to the dead, something that is closely related to magic obviously requires the assistance of a wizard. Of course, it's better for Bran, the great wizard, to do it himself, and maybe everything will be simpler. However, they did not dare to speak.

Bran has already expressed his displeasure at their inability to deliver on their agreement so far. At this time, who dares to ask for their own boring?

......

Bran looked more and more in the direction of Sandstone City, thinking that everything there had been temporarily over, but now it had changed.

The clamor of the dead died died down, but clearer whispers began to sound. This time, he was the only one who could be heard. Maybe Flowey, as can be seen from the black cat's slightly confused reaction. Furuki's reaction to Bran was a little unclear, so he really hadn't heard anything, even though he had tried so hard, which made him feel a little anxious.

Bran stopped the ancient tree from trying, allowing him to grow his face first. After looking forward to it for many days, it turned out that the ancient tree's face did not even show a shadow.

Just let him handle it here!

Things get interesting, the whispers are a promise that promises to give Bran great power. Bran never considered himself powerful, although he was not afraid of the challenges around him. But he was afraid, afraid that he was only the stronger one in the rabbit nest. He was afraid that one day, he would meet a real wolf.

It's just this whisper that makes Bran feel ridiculous. While it was ridiculous, it also made him understand that his previous speculation about Sandstone City should be wrong. But it doesn't matter, this power can't affect him yet. He is Bran, the Bran who is always wary of the world. His magic was around him at all times, and he never let up his defenses.

However, he still had to wait, and what the scholar had promised had not yet arrived. The next time he went to Sandstone City, he wouldn't mind turning it upside down. So, he told that over there, be ready for the power of commitment, and he would soon pass.

Yes, he will go and pick it up soon. It is not only humans who can acquire abilities, but all kinds of creatures have the opportunity to acquire abilities. The last time he was affected by his emotions and ignored a lot, this time it won't. He was just curious about what kind of creature could possess such strange abilities.

Maybe it's an alternative eating, maybe it's Bran's fatness, which stimulates it. There are too many possibilities, too many maybes. The only thing it shouldn't have was to expose itself.
