The sky was bright, and everything was still silent.

Claudia rolled over and sat up from the bed, and no matter how many days had passed, as long as she slept on this familiar hardwood bed, she would wake up on time like the most sophisticated of machines.

From the age of six, until the age of twelve, before going to the Great Monastery for paladin training, every day at this time, the father will wait at the door, if you dare to continue to lie in bed at the point, the old baron does not care whether you are really sleeping or not, whether you are your own daughter or not, you will pick up the wooden stick and beat it directly when you lift the quilt.

Claudia stood up, her room was unadorned, except for the bed and the wooden table, a bookcase and an iron sword hanging from the wall, and the layout was simply not like a girl's room.

The blonde girl took off her pajamas and put on a slightly loose white dress, and then habitually walked to the wall and held the iron sword, which was a very ordinary iron sword, but it was a gift that Claudia received from her father when she was ten years old, and since then it has been used to replace the wooden sword to practice her sword skills, Claudia wanted to let go, but then took it again after thinking about it.

She walked out of the room, and when she passed by Paltris's room, she subconsciously looked inside, the room was decorated in a romantic and cheerful pink, and Paltris was sleeping with a brown bear doll about the size of her, and then Claudia took a light step, carefully walked down the stairs, opened the hall door and locked it again, and walked out.

On an early spring morning, there were layers of gauzy mist around her, covering the earth and obscuring Claudia's vision, but this must be the place where she grew up, and she was very familiar with every plant and tree here.

She walked past the training ground where she had practiced her swordsmanship, walked through the secluded garden of her house, walked past a small oval lake shaded by greenery, and finally stopped at a lonely white stone tombstone with the life of the old baron and a brief epitaph left by himself:

"Anglie Seberchel, son of Lothar."

Claudia looked at the epitaph, recalled the scenes of more than ten years, stood still for a long time, and finally said softly:

"Father, I don't know if I'm your original daughter, but I'll call you that.

We're leaving here, and it may be a long time before we come back to see you again.

I wanted to take you with me, but neither Uncle Rhine nor my sister agreed with me and did not want me to disturb your peace.

Either way, this must be the place of your life's work, and it's quiet enough for you to sleep here, and I'll leave enough power to keep the unclean creatures from coming near your resting place.

We're about to head to Stormwind in the South to start our new life there, and while the future is uncertain, I'm brave enough to secure our future.

Paltris is already a beautiful girl, and I don't know how happy it would be if you could see her now.

As for me--"

Speaking of this, Claudia couldn't help but be stunned, she didn't know how to tell her father what had happened to her in the past six months, and she didn't know how to describe her recent feelings, so she could only sigh and continue:

"Anyway, you never asked me about my feelings and things before you died, so let's not talk about it for the time being.

I have not been able to become a qualified lord as you wished, and despite my best efforts, my vassals and vassals have now rebelled and fled.

Even so, I didn't feel any discomfort, I let go of a burden, and from now on, I finally don't have to continue to live under your shadow, I can choose my own life.

Half of your deathbed promise is no longer possible, but the other half I will do my best, and I will take care of Partris.

A lot of times I wonder, how nice it would be if I were my sister, and if I could also get a gift from you like Partris is also a delicate costume jewelry? Can I be coquettish in your arms like Partrius? Will you one day look at me with approval as you look at Partris?

Unfortunately, I will never be able to wait for these answers.

Even so, I love you dearly, my father. ”

Claudia stood alone in front of the tomb for a long time, and finally felt something, and the girl, who had been interrupted from spending time with her father, had a gloomy face on her face, and the iron sword in her hand was clenched in her hand, and she walked into the depths of the distant woods.

After a while, Claudia stopped, and then pulled the iron sword from its scabbard with her right hand, and the blade of the sword glowed with a faint murderous aura.

A huge wolf howl came, and three werewolves walking upright appeared around her, and more black shadows flashed in the depths of the mist, these werewolves opened their large mouths to reveal long yellow fangs, exuding a faint bad breath, and their blood-red eyes fixed on the delicious flesh under Claudia's thin clothes, and licked their long tongues.

Although Claudia was very small compared to the height of these werewolves up to two meters, she was not wearing armor at this time, only a thin layer of civilian clothes, and she only had an unopened iron sword in her hand, Claudia did not have the slightest fear in her heart, but instead there was a thick anger. She looked around at these werewolves in disgust, and a cold voice came: "It turns out that you monsters have been disturbing the lives of my former lords, and it seems that today I can settle these accounts together." ”

I don't know if the werewolves understood Claudia's words, but the three werewolves ran on all fours, rushing from three directions to the back of the blonde girl's heart, the legs under the skirt, and the girl's slender neck.

The werewolf who rushed to Claudia's heart jumped high and grabbed the girl's heart fiercely, and he had already begun to imagine how to taste the steaming heart after grabbing it with one paw, and the moment he saw that he was about to catch the girl, the girl moved.

Claudia didn't have a silver hand in her hand at this time, nor did she activate Valkyrie's bloodline, she simply called for the help of the Holy Light.

The Light quickly responded to her, and she then infused the power of the Light into her limbs, the Speed of the Light, the name of this technique, which allowed her to greatly increase her speed in a short period of time.

Claudia easily turned around and avoided the attack of the werewolf behind her, and then poured the powerful holy light power into the iron sword in her hand, and then a cross sword qi that emitted a pale golden and holy light smashed into the back of the giant wolf that was originally biting her waist on the left side, and the powerful holy light power suddenly knocked the werewolf away, and slammed into a big tree ten meters away, the cross sword qi just now had blasted it through, and a large hole was opened in its chest, and countless blood mixed with internal organ fragments flowed out of the hole. The giant wolf blankly covered the hole with its paws, trying to stop the fall of its internal organs, but soon, it struggled weakly for a few times, and finally fell to the ground.

At this time, the werewolf in front of the right also pounced, Claudia clenched the iron sword in her hand with both hands at the same time, and swung around, countless times when she was a child, the hard cultivation and swinging of the sword figure merged here, and then the iron sword in her hand split out a perfect circle, and the unopened iron sword flashed, and actually split the giant wolf running over from head to tail, and the entire blood of the giant wolf gushed out from the body in an instant, and fell to the ground splashing huge blood flowers.

Claudia deftly avoided the wolf blood falling from the air, she let go of her left hand, and pointed the sword in one hand in her right hand at the werewolf who had just pounced from behind her and was attacked by her dodge, he saw the scene of the girl swinging the sword to kill the wolf, and the wolf face covered with fine hair showed timidity, and actually wanted to escape.

"Exorcism." The girl silently recited three words in her heart, and then a golden ball of light formed on the tip of the girl's sword and flew to the back of the werewolf, the werewolf howled, turned around, and stood in front of her with her claws to meet the ball of light, and then collided with the ball of light. A burst of green smoke flashed, and there was a burst of sharp pain coming out of his arms and the hairy flesh of his upper body, but the werewolf breathed a sigh of relief, although it was seriously injured, but its recovery ability was very strong, even if the left hand was cut off, it could grow a new one.

But Claudia didn't give him time to continue to escape, the moment it was dragged by the spell, the girl stomped on the ground hard, and the huge reaction force pushed the girl towards the werewolf, the tip of the sword quickly became larger in the wolf's eyes, and the werewolf waved its huge claws in despair, trying to block the tip of the dead sword, but his efforts were ultimately in vain, and even the claws and heads were pierced and nailed to the tree.

Claudia drew her sword, and the lifeless werewolf corpse fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The sound of rustling in the depths of the fog sounded, and the onlookers saw that the girl had killed her three companions cleanly, and wisely chose to leave.

When he returned to the villa, Sir Rhine walked out of the door, and he looked at the blood stains left on the long sword in the girl's hand, and asked with concern, "Have you met the enemy?" ”

"Well," replied Claudia, "I know what those have been watching us all along, a giant wolf that can walk upright, and though it is fast and powerful, it is still a beast. Their bodies are not far from here, and I can take you to see them in the morning, Uncle Rhein. ”

"Beasts, that's fine, but although it doesn't threaten us, it does a lot of harm to ordinary people." Speaking of this, Rhine sighed a little sadly: "The troubled times are coming, and there are more and more of these monsters, and this place is no longer suitable for ordinary people to reproduce and live, even if Lordaeron is recovered, I don't know how long it will take to recover." ”

Claudia also replied with some emotion: "Yes, I killed three, but there are many more in the distance that have not been seen, I really don't know where so many monsters have emerged from the Silver Pine Forest, I'm afraid we can't stay here for too long." ”

Rhine nodded: "Yes, even without these beasts, we would have to leave, there are not many supplies in the manor." ”

"Hmm." Claudia agreed, "One more day off, and then you go and say goodbye to your father, and tomorrow we should leave." ”
