Under the same night, but there was a bright Northern Light in the sky of the Northern Peninsula, the White Knight saw this wonderful scenery for the first time, and he couldn't help but look up at the sky, but in fact he and Woolf were surrounded by five strong northern warriors, who had been guests at the house of Woolf's partner Algilen, but a noisy footstep alerted them.

"Woolf, it's you, and when they say you're back, I didn't believe it." At the head of the five northern warriors was a gloomy man, his hair shaved short, his carefully tied beard smeared with olive oil, and his deep gaze was punctuated with cunning.

"Oh, it's you, Barnett." Woolf stood in the middle, his waist crossed, as if he did not take the northern warriors who surrounded him seriously at all.

"I remember you once swore to give up everything and never set foot on this land again, unless it was your soul, what, am I seeing a ghost now?" Barnett tilted his head, as if puzzled, as he glanced at the White Knight beside Woolf.

"I remember saying I wouldn't be back in 10 years, but I didn't say I'll never be back." Woolf grinned as he replied to Barnett.

"I'll explain this to Earl Gülen!" Barnett turned sideways and made a gesture of please, and the northern warriors surrounding Woolf and the White Knights also showed fierce expressions.

"Stop, they are my guests today, they are under my roof and I am obligated to protect them." Just then, Algilon came out of the house with an axe, and he stood in front of everyone and said loudly.

"And me." Algeron's wife also took out a short spear, which was a tool for spearing fish, and she followed closely behind her husband, and the northerners were fierce warriors of both men and women.

"Oh?" Barnett was not surprised, he stretched out his right hand, and the northern warriors immediately drew the axes from their waists, and the battle seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.

"Enough, Algilen, my old friend, I'm sure the Earl won't punish me indiscriminately." Woolf stopped his old friend, and he decided to follow Barnett to Earl Gülen.

The Earl of Gülen lived on a hill not far from the port, where a large lord's house had been built out of thick fir wood, and a brass basin outside the gate was blazing with whale oil, and beside the brazier stood two northern warriors with shields and spears, and they watched around vigilantly, surrounded by the safety of the Count and his family.

"I'm Barnett, and I've brought people here." Barnett is covered with a wolf's skin, and the northern peninsula is shrouded in cold whirlwinds all year round, and even the summer nights are very cold, so the northerners who are good at hunting will have a animal skin shawl when they go out.

"The Earl has been waiting for a long time." The guard nodded at Barnett, and he stretched out his hand to push the gate open, and the White Knight glanced curiously at the quaint gate, above which was a wooden carving of an old man with an axe.

"That is the human image of the god of war, the god of war is not only the most powerful warrior, but also the wisest god of magic, who often comes to the world in the form of an old man, looking for the most adventurous warriors to accompany him." Woolf looked at the White Knight, and he explained to the White Knight.

Under the watchful eye of the northern warriors, Woolf and the White Knights entered the hall of the lords, where six pillars carved with the image of sea dragons supported the roof, and the copper basin of whale oil was burning, and the hall was full of people, and the freedmen and warriors of the territory gathered to enjoy mead and food, and when Woolf entered, the hall fell silent, and many people looked surprised.

"Woolf, isn't this Woolf?" Someone stood up with a wine glass, and he pointed to Woolf.

"yes, how did he come back?" The people in the hall began to talk like a beehive that had been poked.

"Lord Earl Gülen, Lady Kaylin has arrived." Suddenly, one of the attendants shouted loudly, and the Earl of Gülen and his wife, who had not been present, appeared at the same time at this time, which made people even more surprised.

"Lady Kaylin, what's the matter, did he change his wife again?" Woolf turned her head in surprise and asked Barnett.

"Yes, the last one accidentally fell into the river and drowned." Barnett shrugged his shoulders and smiled meaningfully.

"Ugh." The White Knight's brow furrowed, he had a bad premonition about the count who ruled the land.

At that moment the Earl of Gülen came out of the side of the hall, with a face like a knife, a long, pointed nose like an eagle's beak, a greedy look in his eyes, a ring full of precious stones on his fingers, a precious gold pendant on his chest, and a large snarl made of a hundred otter skins draped over his body.

"Aha, I'm so sleepy, why do I have to attend this kind of banquet so much?" Lady Cayline, wife of the Earl of Gülen, was also bejeweled, with a blue fabric dress from the south and a stoatskin shawl, which set off her beauty and nobility.

Earl Gülen walked to his lord's throne, when he sat down, he kept staring at Woolf, the eyes of the two were intertwined in mid-air, the white knight was a little nervous, the short sword at his waist had been confiscated, and now the two of them could be said to be bare-handed, but there were some knives, forks and cutlery on the tables on both sides, if they got their hands before the other party made a move, they might be able to have a chance to fight back.

"Woolf, my brother, you're back at last." Just as the White Knight was planning a counterattack in his mind, Earl Gülen stood up, laughed and stretched out his hands, stepped down from his lordship's throne, and actually hugged Woolf tightly.

"Long time no see, Lord Count." Compared with the enthusiastic Earl Gülen, Woolf was much colder.

"Hurry up, come to my side and tell me the story of your travels over the years, there must be many legends!" Count Gülen couldn't help but say, and took Woolf up the steps together, and came to his lordship's throne.

"yes, a lot happened." Woolf nodded, looking at an empty chair next to the throne with a look of loneliness and surprise.

"Look, I've kept this chair all the time, like I'm waiting for a friend who will come back sooner or later." Count Gülen saw Woolf's surprise, and he pointed to the chair next to the lord's throne.

The lord's throne is placed side by side with the throne of the lord's wife, but there are two smaller chairs on either side of the lord's throne, usually for the lord's children, but sometimes for the lord's most powerful assistants. Lady Kaylin, seated at the lord's throne, also looked at Woolf in surprise, she had never seen Earl Gülen think so highly of a northern warrior, and the two seemed to have an unusual friendship.
