Chapter 406: Princess
I don't have a clue where to go or what to do in the future...... Anyway, let's enjoy the scenery along the way......
Loria walked slowly along the forest path alone, the snow had covered everything, her eyes were white, and the tall silver pines were bent by the snow and condensed into an ice shell, no longer moved by the howling of the wind...... The cedar is very beautiful, but it is the same everywhere. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The narrow forest on the west coast could not be walked in a day, and the ruins of camps, large and small, could often be seen along the roadside, so Loria found a leeward place, spread her cloak on the ground, and sat down to rest.
A person's romantic journey seems to have a good start? Miss Loria would never admit that she had begun to miss the fluffy pillows and the hot quilt anyway.
She was not afraid of the cold, and wore a cloak just to avoid being shocking - if she saw a girl in a short skirt and a shirt in the cold winter forest, a normal person would probably be afraid; And the occasional cloudy sky and dark night didn't hinder her vision...... Plus, as a frost mage, Ice and Snow are her most powerful allies, and no matter how restless the beasts of the forest are, they can't hurt her in the slightest.
Loria originally thought that she had a slightly special physique that could conquer nature, but now she realized how naïve she was...... Because the wind is too strong, you will often be blown away when you walk!
Her fluttering weight was a hard wound, which was why no matter how strong she was or how flexible her body was, she couldn't rush into battle with the enemy like a warrior or a thief.
If you're not careful, you'll be knocked off when you block.
Loria patted her cheek and took a sip of bottled juice, although there were many troubles in this cold weather, but since she could freeze the water, she naturally had a way to thaw the ice, don't think about those troubles anymore, she comforted herself, isn't it interesting to be in such a situation of independence in the world?
Self-soothing seemed to work, as a powerful magician for all sorts of messy reasons, she could watch the snow fall from the sky with grace, and if she wanted to, she could even keep herself from a single snowflake, and as long as she was careful not to fall down in the wind, she could watch the wolf hunt down the rabbit that had woken up from hibernation due to starvation.
When Loria drank all the juice in the glass bottle, the wind and snow had subsided, she took out her pocket watch and looked at the time, it was almost evening, but the sky was gloomy, which made people feel like they were in the dawn...... Someone was coming, and Loria noticed a convoy coming close, and not wanting to have anything to do with them, picked up her cloak from the ground and quietly retreated into the forest.
After a few hours of sleep at dusk, when she woke up again and got out of the small tent packed with snow, the snow had completely stopped, and the white moon Elune was spreading her light in the middle of the sky, and the weather was so nice tonight.
Loria stood delicately on the top of the tree, not even crushing the snow that covered it, and her view was surprisingly good tonight, and the fact that there was no tree taller than where she stood allowed her to see far away.
Under the bright moonlight, above the quiet forest, she stood there, quietly enjoying the rare serene scenery.
……
Hetty? Aberdeen woke up from her nightmare, breathing heavily, with a violent cough, wiping the sweat from her forehead with her left hand, and after a while, someone outside the tent whispered her name.
"Come in."
Hetty hid her overly slender, misshapen right arm behind her, shielded it with a scarf, and adjusted it uncomfortably to cover her arm completely, and just as she was ready to finish the action, her brother walked into the tent with a layer of snow still on his hood...... He seemed to have been waiting outside for a long time.
"Didn't you sleep?"
The girl's voice was definitely not gentle, it didn't look like she was talking to her relatives at all, if she wasn't angry about it, she hated the person in front of her.
Her brother didn't care about his sister's bad attitude at all, but smiled gently and explained his behavior: "I'm always a little worried, so I have to get up and walk around, and I hear that you seem to have a nightmare......"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted, Hetty's face was full of impatience, his chest rose and fell sharply, and he coughed again, "No, go away, get out!" ”
Enoch frowned, but quickly relented, thinking to himself that Hetty's behavior had been getting more and more perverse lately...... Even if he took pity on his sister, who was born with a cripple, he could not always let her calmly, suppressing the resentment in his heart, and he put a gentle smile on his face again, but this angered Hetty, who cried out, 'I don't need your pity!' In her excitement, she even forgot to hide her deformed arm.
Hetty noticed that Enoch was staring straight at her arm, and suddenly stopped making noise, she felt a burst of breathlessness, and she didn't even feel angry, and hid her arm secretly, but felt grief for no reason, and finally cried silently.
Noticing his rudeness, Enoch wanted to apologize but couldn't speak, their family was a little special, her parents had hated her disabled sister since she was a child, hid her in the depths of the house, and didn't even want to admit that she was their daughter, as if Hetty's misfortune was an unbearable shame, and every time she thought of the torture she had suffered in her childhood, Enoch couldn't bear to blame her for her strange personality.
Silent cries and awkward entanglements spread the silence, and after an unknown amount of time, Enoch suddenly became alert.
"What sound?"
He muttered softly to himself.
Hetty wanted to satirize his paranoia, but she soon noticed something unusual—someone was quietly walking in the snow.
……
Repetitive, repetitive scripts, when will they stop?
Can't you change some new tricks?
It took Loria a moment to figure out what was happening in the distance, first at the campsite where the party had arrived in the evening, and then a few black-skinned orcs sneaking up to the edge of the camp...... Haven't the orcs been locked up in a shelter a long time ago?
She thought it was some trash fish leaked by the human army and was planning to attack the humans, but she saw the orcs and the humans who came out of the camp talking, which made Loria, who was hesitant to jump off the tree and kill all the orcs, almost missed a kick.
When did the relationship between humans and orcs become so good?
Shouldn't two races who have just experienced a tragic war fight to the death when they meet?
It wasn't until the combination of humans and orcs attacked the rest of the sleeping people that Loria finally understood the old story. (To be continued.) )
