Chapter XIII: Litigation
Who told you to suddenly hug someone from behind, the girl was not pierced on the spot, and it was ......lucky," Brunhilde seemed to stare at Yihao with dissatisfaction, while trying to reassure him. "Well, although she was the one who knocked you unconscious, she was also the one who rescued you from the sea, so Zige, don't continue to resent people."
"Well, I just mistook her for you, and if she was wearing armor, it would look the same from behind any Valkyrie, right? And I didn't resent her, I just wanted to find a chance to apologize to her. Yihao explained his actions for a moment, and then looked around as if looking for something. Speaking of which, that girl is also one of the Valkyrie, right? Didn't she come with you this time? ”
"She's not Valkyriezig." Brunhilde caressed Yihao's face and pulled his gaze back. "She's a guest at the Valhalla Heavenly Palace, and she's been too busy lately to spare any manpower, so we asked her to tour the Norwegian waters on our behalf, and that happened to her...... Because of this, she won't be in Valhalla for a while, so if you want to apologize to her, I'm afraid you'll have to wait a long time. ”
“…… yes, that can't be helped. Yihao shrugged his shoulders regretfully and finally added. But I really didn't mean to! ”
"I know." Brunhilde nodded, but said the exact opposite of what Yihao had expected. "The hero's lustful Ziggy experience of messing with flowers and grass does not start in this life......"
"Hey, hey! What does that mean? "Yihao can't pretend that he hasn't heard it." I...... No, Siegfried didn't do anything cheating! ”
"Really? obviously said that he would come back to Iceland to marry someone, but after becoming a dragon slaying hero, he was happy. Leave the marriage contract behind and marry another woman without permission...... It turns out that in Ziegdi's heart, this is not cheating, right? Brunhilde had a faint smile on his face, but behind him there was a terrifying depression that seemed to be visible to the naked eye.
"That's ......," Yihao choked his breath for a few seconds before he explained again. That's because I've drunk Terr's treacherous elixir! I finally remembered what happened in Brünnhilde...... Besides, it was all a matter of a previous life. I'm a completely different person in this life. ”
"Well, that's right, this time Ziggy married two wives in one go, and I'm not one of them." Brünnhilde stated the facts in a bluish tone. Yihao was suddenly silenced. "And in addition to Tielan and Jingyu of his wife, it seems that even the witches of hell are in love with Zige, Penglai has also invited me to settle down many times, presumably Qige has already vacated a room for me in the palace of the Young Emperor, right?"
A gut answer of "yes" is bound to be miserable, but that doesn't mean "no" is the right answer. Since Brunhilde's expression and tone did not reveal any emotion at all, he was cornered almost instantly.
"Uh, that's actually...... No, nothing. ”
Originally, Yihao wanted to say that Penglai sent someone to invite Brunhilde, not out of his own instruction, but as soon as the words came out, he realized that saying it would only make his position worse, and when he was cut off urgently, he bit his tongue. A cold sweat suddenly broke out on Yihao's forehead.
“…… Ziggy I love Tielan's fortitude. Brunhilde, looking at his lover's face, spoke softly what was in his heart. I don't hate Jingyu's gentle character either. Even the hellwitch in Nazig's beloved land, I will love it, but ......," the Valkyrie raised her head, her eyes as clear as the sea, revealing unchanging determination.
"I am Brunhilde, who is in love with Siegfried, and who is deeply in love with Siegfried. I don't share my husband with other women no matter what, so Zig...... I won't go to Penglai. ”
"Brünnhilde, you ......," the Valkyrie's eyes made Yihao feel a pain in his heart for no reason, and when he was about to say something, Brünnhilde pressed his finger to his lips and said his own decision.
"I'm going to stay in the Valhalla Heavenly Palace, and only here can I continue to keep my memories with you and have exclusive time with you, so ...... Don't embarrass me. ”
Brunhilde spoke to Yihao in a earnest tone. She didn't know all about the angel beasts, so she naturally thought that Yihao's sudden arrival in Iceland was to persuade her to settle in Penglai, so she gave her lover such a response - it took Yihao a moment to figure out Brunhilde's thoughts, and the confusion in her heart was immediately relieved. Of course, this didn't mean that he would give up his plan to bring Brunhilde to Penglai, but he felt that now was not the right time, and he still had enough time to convince the Valkyrie to change her mind before the many riots caused by the Silver Mask were resolved.
"I know, I'm not going to force Brunhilde." Yihao nodded to the Valkyrie. "I'll stay in Iceland for the time being, and I'll be Siegfried just for Brünnhilde."
……………………
The name "Iceland" is often associated with a cold scene of ice and snow, but in fact, Iceland is a more welcoming island than most people think. Its entire surface is covered by glaciers on volcanic rocks, and only one-eighth of Iceland's land is covered by more than 20 active volcanoes, as well as a large number of hot springs. All in all, while Iceland's climate isn't warm or pleasant, it's definitely not unbearably cold.
"Hello!"
The dawn of the morning shone through the window and spilled into Brunhilde's room, and Yihao woke up sneezing. On the wooden bed covered with down, there are still traces of last night's lingering, but the beautiful woman next to the pillow is nowhere to be found, and at the same time, Yihao also showed his upper body, for some reason, all wet, the cold air of the early morning soaked his nose, so he couldn't help but sneeze out again.
"What the hell is this...... Wow! ”
Feeling a faint wave of magic power above his head, Yihao reflexively flipped over, and then the next second. A glass of cold water mixed with ice cubes was poured over his place.
"Tsk, do you want to pour another cup......"
The fairy queen who started the crime threw away the glass of water she was holding in her hands, revealing a look of regret.
“…… Good morning Titania. "I know that goblins can't change their mischievous personalities. Yihao didn't bother to bother with this naughty queen, reached out and put his wet head together, wiped his face by the way, and suddenly woke up from his sleepiness. Speaking of which. Do you know where Brünnhilde went? ”
"Brünnhilde has ridden Slenier to patrol the territory while you're still asleep with your pillow in your hands." Titania flew over as if nothing had happened, and sat down on Yihao's shoulder as a matter of course, letting out a crisp laugh. "Brünnhilde is now the goddess who rules Iceland and is revered by all the people, but she doesn't have time to spend all day with your little ex-husband."
"Former ...... Ex!!? The lines that could not be ignored made Yihao glare at the fairy queen fiercely.
"The so-called ex-husband. That is, the husband of the previous life, what are you excited about? The corner of the fairy queen's mouth showed a conspiracy smiling and continued to drop bombs on Yihao's spirit. Brunhilde is such a good woman, even among the male goblins, there are many admirers, and one of them is picked out at random, and all of them are more temperamental and personable than the so-called dragon-slaying heroes...... Anyway, I once introduced a few admirers to Brunhilde, and now they've become very close friends. I don't know what kind of journey I have reached......"
"That's right, Brunhilde has always been fond of teasing cats and dogs and stuff......"
Yihao nodded with deep feeling, and this unexpectedly sharp counterattack made the fairy queen's expression suffocated.
"You...... You impudent bone! He even compares a noble fairy to a pet like a dog and a cat! Take back your words now. Then apologize cautiously to this queen, otherwise I won't spare you! ”
Titania tugged at Yihao's tip on her shoulder, unrelentingly asking.
"Yes, Your Royal Highness, please forgive the little gaffes, the goblins are indeed completely different from cats, dogs, etc......"
Yihao said a completely insincere apology. While changing the clothes on his body, he couldn't help but sigh at the coldness of the Valhalla Heavenly Palace. Although he didn't expect a beautiful maid to wait for him to get dressed and get out of bed, the situation that he was supposed to be a gentle lover by his side after being woken up by the vicious fairy queen splashed with ice water was a little too much. Yihao thought that as Brunhilde, he didn't need to live such a hard life at all, but he had to admit that this nobility was one of the charms of the Valkyrie.
“…… Anyway, I'm going out, please come down. Yihao, who was dressed, asked the fairy queen who was entrenched in his head.
"Don't. It's rare to find such a comfortable means of transportation, and the Queen wants to stay here. Titania nestled on Yihao's head, seemingly playing with his head with gusto.
“…… In that case, please don't do anything that adds to my annoyance. ”
For the sake of his own mental stability, Yihao gave up his plan to negotiate further with the fairy queen, pushed open the door and walked out.
Outside, the scenery was still so awe-inspiring, and in the dazzling morning light, it seemed that even the air was so refreshing that it shimmered, and Yihao strolled through the cloisters with a happy mood while carefully surveying the town below. Looking down from the Valhalla Heavenly Palace, he could only vaguely see the bustling crowd going about their work, and Yihao decided to take a walk down before Brunhilde returned, but it was at this moment that his vision suddenly caught some kind of wonderful sight.
A golden woman hurried through the hallway with a pile of scrolls on her back, and it took Yihao a moment to recognize her because she wasn't wearing Valkyrie's armor. Scargour, the eldest of the three Valkyrie, was a familiar figure to Yihao, who had taken care of Brünnhilde, and was a familiar figure to him, so he hurried up to greet her.
"Yo Sgagul, good morning."
"You...... Good morning, Siegfried. Seeing the intrusion into the field of vision, Ichor Gagur looked surprised for a moment, but quickly came back to his senses and saluted him in return.
"We haven't seen each other since 'Ragnarok', what are you doing this morning?" Yihao stared curiously at the scroll she was holding.
"These are...... The lawsuit must be disposed of within today's time. Scargoul pulled his shoulder. Tell Sù Yihao something in a heavy sigh.
Since the Valkyries were worshipped as patron saints, the Valhalla Heavenly Palace, where the goddesses lived, was naturally seen as a place to adjudicate disputes. Although mortal problems can be left to mortals to solve on their own, if one of the parties to the conflict is a difficult object for mortals to negotiate with, such as gods, demons and spirits, the Valkyrie have to intervene.
Of the three Valkyrie in the Valhalla Heavenly Palace, Brunhilde and Slude are both goddesses who are better at fighting than in government, so Scargar has to take on the responsibility of dealing with such lawsuits. At first, the wise Valkyrie could barely cope. However, as Iceland's Upper Mortal and Red Worlds fused more and more, more and more mortals faced problems that they had never had in their lives, and eventually even some of the Red Worlds learned to pour out their grievances in the form of lawsuits, so Scargoul's daily workload increased to the point of resentment.
At this moment, she is holding the lawsuit of three days ago. Originally, it was planned to deal with it yesterday, but the appearance of the flame giants and the monster group made the affairs officer of the Valhalla Heavenly Palace have to suspend the work in hand, and the result has become a situation where he has to deal with all the more than 100 lawsuits on the ground within today, and he is almost as busy as a cat's claws
Borrow it.
“…… Because I really don't have time to entertain Siegfried, so you can do whatever you want! Scargul nodded apologetically to Yihao and walked away with an astonishing momentum.
"It's really hard...... Yihao looked blankly at the back of Valkyrie as he left. He nodded with emotion. "It's really hard for them to maintain such a large palace with only three Valkyrie......
"Look! Scargoul dropped a lawsuit! Titania said, pointing to a scroll on the ground like a new Big 6.
“…… I see it. Yihao replied angrily. And don't just pull other people's heads to play! If I don't grow up in the future, how will you compensate me? ”
"Oh, will dragon-slaying heroes be bald too......" The fairy queen was stunned for a moment, but then responded with words without blood or tears. Huhu's original little Ziggy is also mortal. In the future, he will become a sloppy uncle with a beard and a bald head...... Isn't that interesting? I wonder if Brunhilde's love will slowly cool down at that time? It's really exciting......"
"Don't just expect the misfortune of others! My godhead is higher than Brunhilde, so you're talking about something that is absolutely impossible! Yihao decided not to bother with the goblin who would only threaten his mental stability, reaching out to pick up the scroll that Scargul had dropped from the ground. I wanted to catch up and return it to Valkyrie. But then I thought about it, and I was going to go to the town below, so I might as well help her solve this problem by the way, so as not to be described by the goblin as a man who can only eat idle food.
The fusion of the mortal world and the red world is unprecedented, and it is natural that there will be various contradictions during the transition period, and Yihao guesses what form such contradictions will unfold. At the same time, there is a lot of anticipation for the lawsuit in hand. However, when he gently unfolded the complaint and read the contents of it carefully, his originally high-spirited and excited expression suddenly weakened......
……………………
“…… Is that what you're talking about? ”
Yihao crawled in the grass and whispered to the farmer beside him.
"Yes, that's it!"
The farmer lowered his voice in response, but his tone and expression were full of indignation.
"That monster has ruined my three-acre dealer! Traps and traps didn't work against it, I also had fences to fence off the land, but it still turned out ...... Damn! ”
The farmer clenched his fists, and Yihao seemed to see the blood dripping from his heart.
"Even if you say that, it's not a monster...... "Yihao turned his gaze to the creature that was feasting on the cabbage patch.
Called "monster" by the farmer, it has a horse-like appearance, covered with pure white hair, and only has a sharp unicorn on its forehead, hence its name "unicorn". Unicorns and Pegasi belong to the same fantasy life that does not exist in the mortal world, and in mythological stories it is often praised as a sacred beast that likes pure maidens, but in fact it is a kind of beast with bad habits, such things that trample on the hard work of farmers are often born in mythological times, relying on their keen senses, once they smell the smell of danger, they immediately flee, and they cannot be dealt with with with a bow and arrow, which can be said to be one of the most hated pest beasts of farmers in the past.
"There's no way, let's go out and negotiate here...... Titania, can you act as my translator? ”
Yihao stood up from the hidden grass and confirmed with the fairy queen.
"Hmph, has it finally realized the value of this queen?" Titania puffed out her chest triumphantly. "Of course, no problem, whether it's a beast or a bird, a fairy can talk to all life."
"Then please......"
Yi Hao quietly withdrew his breath and quietly walked towards the unicorn, and in the eyes of the farmer behind him, his movements were like a cheetah ready to hunt.
When Yihao was close to five or six meters, the unicorn that was chewing cabbage seemed to smell the smell of danger, and suddenly looked up, saw Yihao's figure, hissed lightly, and then waited to pull out his legs and flee, but the invisible wind condensed into a binding chain in an instant, and the unicorn that could not move could only watch the man walk in front of him.
"What a clever brute, if you don't recover your magic power, you can't really take it......"
Yihao clasped his hands into fists and looked at the unicorn in front of him proudly. Ever since he was kicked by the Pegasus Slenier, he had become dismissive of all horse-like creatures.
"I'll make a long story short, your behavior has bothered the farmers, can you please stop stealing their hard-working crops?"
The unicorn glared at Yihao fiercely, and let out a short hiss as he struggled.
"'Dream on, two-legged fool!' …… Here's what it says. ”
Titania's precise translation of the unicorn's words made Yihao's sanity slacken a little, but he still tried to keep his composure, reminding himself that he couldn't make a fuss with a beast.
“…… Don't you say that, isn't there plenty of food in the forest? I don't know what it tastes like, but it's safer than a place full of traps and traps, right? ”
"'Uncle Ben doesn't care about the fools' tricks! If you have the ability, let go, I will throw you to the ends of the earth in just a second! Titania's voice suddenly took on a gloating tone, continuing to translate the unicorn's words. "Even the Offen wolf can't stand Uncle Ben's flying kicks, if you don't want to be kicked to the end of the universe, let Uncle Ben go quickly!" You two-headed beast! ’”
“…… Very good. Like a wound stabbed in the heart, the corners of Yihao's mouth twitched, and the smile was filled with an eerie and terrifying smell in an instant. Titania sue sù it...... There is a saying in the world called 'self-inflicted', and Uncle Ben will teach it how to write it by hand. ”
