9. Persona of Ximu Town (Ask for recommendation, ask for collection!!) )
"O Shure God! What I saw! Your Highness the Princess! Your Royal Highness Princess, you really lit up the Guardian Spirit Stone! The astonishment on Hadawa's face quickly turned into surprise, and he began to sing praises to Hamia: "It's such an honor to think that I, a pawn of the Hadawa Empire, can witness the birth of a future legendary hero with my own eyes today!" The small admiration for you is like a surging river~~~ Stretching endlessly~~ It is like the white river (the river outside the snowy city) overflowing~~ out of control~~~"
"Hmph, it's not difficult~~~" Although Hamia wanted to be modest, the smugness on her face was really difficult to suppress. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info But soon a nasty person helped her stop. After a slight vibration sound, just behind Hamiya, the one in the middle of the three guardian spirit stones was also lit up!
"Really, it's not difficult at all." Asa shrugged his shoulders, patted his right hand, which had just been a little soiled by the dust on the stone, seemingly casually, and took the lead in walking towards the stunned gaze of Hamia and Hadava, and said as he walked, "Aren't we in a hurry?" Hurry up to Ximu Town to resupply supplies, there are no clouds tonight, and it should be no problem to rush by moonlight at night. ”
……
"Hadava? Is it really Hadawa! How did you get here!? I heard that Ufrik led an uprising, and our family is worried about you! "Hadava's uncle, Alvor, was in his fifties, with the Nord's signature muscular body and bushy beard, and was the only blacksmith in Brookwood. Seeing the sudden appearance of Hadawa, in addition to the accident, there was only a strong surprise, and later Asa learned that Alvo had only one young daughter, and Hadawa's parents died early, and the relationship between the two was not so much that of uncle and nephew as of father and son.
"It's hard to put into words, uncle! Is there anything to eat!? We've been hungry for a day! Hadava was obviously very excited to see Alvo alive, but considering Hamia's belly, he immediately made a priority.
"Oh? Oooh! Yes! Yes! Eat as much as you want! SGRI~~ SGRI, you come out! Look who's back!! ”
"I heard it," came a middle-aged woman from the house next to the blacksmith's shop, who seemed to be Alvor's wife, Sikri. Sigr, who didn't pay much attention to it, immediately became excited when he saw Hadawa, screamed and rushed over and hugged Hadawa, shouting, "Hadawa! You're actually back!! In the past few years that you have been a soldier, you are worried about the death of your aunt and me! ”
"Auntie, I miss you too!!" Hadava also choked up, after yesterday's catastrophe of life and death, it is undoubtedly a fortunate thing to be able to see his relatives intact.
"Alright, alright! Wife, hurry up and slaughter a few chickens I bought yesterday, don't you see that Hadawa has brought back friends? Alvo reminded Sigri that Asa and Hamia were following behind Hadava, and although a half-elf like Asa with a human appearance but elven ears was eye-catching enough, it was nothing in the face of Hamia's beauty and the princess's noble temperament.
Sigr, who thought it was Hadava returning home with his daughter-in-law, soon noticed that something was wrong, why did this girl keep staring at the half-elf next to her? Obviously, no daughter-in-law would still stare at another man when she saw her in-laws, and Sigri and Alvo turned their puzzled eyes to Hadava at the same time.
Noticing the sight of his uncle and aunt, Hadava scratched his head and said helplessly: "This is not the place to talk, uncle and aunt, let's go to the house and talk!" As he spoke, he took the second elder's shoulders and walked into the house first.
Seeing that the three of them had already entered the house, but Hamia was still staring at herself, Asa said helplessly: "Everyone has entered the house, let's not do it, princess, I know that I am handsome~~~ But you have been staring at me all the way, haven't you seen enough!?" ”
Hamia couldn't help but take a sip, and at the same time, she finally realized that there was something wrong with her behavior, and explained: "Who cares if you look good or not!" Flatter yourself! I'm just wondering how someone like you can light up that Guardian Stone. This makes me a little skeptical that I can become a legendary hero in the future. ”
"I said, Princess, you take the legend too seriously! Even if that's true, why can't I be a hero if you can be a hero? Aren't you hungry! Let's go! Asa couldn't laugh or cry, and after saying that, he didn't care what Hamia did, and walked towards Alvor's door.
"Hey! What do you think of me? Dare to go ahead of me!! Wait for me!! ”
……
"What!! A black dragon has attacked Helgen!! Hadawa, you're not drunk, are you? Alvo almost squirted out the honey he had just drunk, staring at Hadava in disbelief.
"I hope I'm drunk, too! What a dream it was yesterday! But...... All dead, my brother! My sir! They're all dead! Hadava couldn't help but shed tears, seeing his nephew so sad, Asa and Hamia on the side also had a heavy face, and then remembered the dusty appearance of the three of them when they first met, Alvo was also silent, just silently drinking the honey wine in the cup, obviously needing some time to digest this heavy news.
"Dragons? Hadava, did you really see the dragon? At this moment, Alvor's youngest daughter, Dosse, suddenly cried out, "In the morning I heard Swan's mother on the other side shouting something, I saw the dragon going to the side of the cold mountain, I thought she was crazy!" It turned out to be true! There really are dragons! ”
"The gods are above! What's wrong with the world? First war, now dragons? Dosse's remarks undoubtedly added another example of Hadawa's statement, and Sigri couldn't help but cover his mouth.
"I really didn't expect that the legend would come true, what can I do if it goes on like this!" Alvo said worriedly, and the two words mentioned in his words couldn't help but arouse Hamia's curiosity, and she couldn't help but ask, "What legend?" ”
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked yet, these two are ......" The news of the fall of the imperial princess is likely to cause unnecessary danger, for safety reasons, Hamia did not let Hadava tell her identity, and when she saw Alvo asking, she replied casually: "I am an ordinary non-commissioned officer of the empire, and this is my assistant magician Asa." ”
"It turns out that the sir, the villain is rude, please don't be surprised." The princess is a princess after all, and the aura of the person in the position is not at all concealed by civilian clothing, and Asa knows that the other party is very suspicious of Hamia's statement when he sees Alvor's strange eyes, at least he will not believe that she is an "ordinary" non-commissioned officer.
It's a pity that Her Royal Highness didn't realize it at all, but it was okay to do so, Asa took over the conversation and continued to ask: "Uncle Alvor, what is the legend you mentioned just now?" ”
"That's a very old Nord legend...... Alvo also became serious, as if recalling the story his fathers told him when he was a child, "In Nord legend, there is only one dragon in this world that is black!" And that black dragon is also the most dangerous dragon. Its name is Alduin! [Devourer of Worlds]! ”
"[Devourer of Worlds]? What an exaggerated name!? "What!? Alduin! "Hamia is not from Skyrim, and her reaction to hearing the name of the [Devourer of Worlds] can be described as two extremes of Hadava, one curious and the other frightened.
"Hadawa, so you know? Why haven't I heard you mention it now? ”
"I'm sorry, ...... Uh, Sir Hamia! I—I never imagined it would be true! If it's really Alduin, then don't say that the whole sky, it's the whole world is in danger!
"It's not that exaggerated!" Hamia was in disbelief. The black dragon in Heergen yesterday was indeed unbeatable, but Hamia had not yet positioned it to a height high enough to "destroy the world". But looking at Hadava's wavering appearance, it was difficult for Hamiya to convince herself that he was exaggerating.
"Whether it's so exaggerated or not, isn't it just one thing we have to do now to go to Xueman City to ventilate and report the news? Defeating that black dragon isn't something we have to think about for the time being, right? Are you right? Sir! Asa couldn't help but feel a sudden feeling when he heard the name [World Devourer], and he always felt that this was a key word that could not be left out casually, but now that time was pressing, he still reminded Hamia "dutifully".
"Going to Snowy City? Well, at the moment, we are completely unprepared in Ximu Town, and we really need to warn Lord Barguf as soon as possible. Alvo was convinced by Asa's words, if the black dragon was really the legendary devourer of the world, perhaps the so-called defense would be useless, but there was still a big difference between having and not having it, and it was too early to give up hope. However, it may be too early to give up hope, but it is really not early, and seeing that Asa and Hamia seem to have the intention of traveling overnight, Alvo couldn't help but remind: "It's getting late today, and wolves often come down the mountain to forage for food on the cold mountain peaks, why don't you stay here for one night first, and then hurry tomorrow?" ”
"Like Asa said, now that time is pressing, I can't take care of so much, and a few wild wolves, can't deal with dragons and can't deal with them?" Hamia swallowed the rest of the dinner in one gulp, and said heroically.
"But this ...... Alas, it seems that I can't persuade you, so I can only wish you to be careful on the road! Xuemancheng is not far from here, after leaving the town, cross the bridge, go down the White River, and see a winery called Mead Land is considered to be in Xuemancheng. Lord Barguf is at the highest point in the city, the Longxiao Palace. I'll write you another letter, so you should be able to meet your lordship without any problems!" As the only blacksmith in Creekwood Town, Alvo undoubtedly has some connections with the officials of Snowman City, but he doesn't know Hamia's identity, which is a bit redundant.
But Hamia did not refuse the old man's kindness, and after receiving the letter, she bowed slightly to Alvo very solemnly, and when she saw Hadawa, who was also ready to go, she suddenly said: "You don't have to follow, Hadawa! You're not like us, you haven't had much rest yesterday or today. In this way, you can rest here for one night today, and go directly to Dugu City tomorrow morning! If General Tulius is still alive, he should also go back to Dugu City, and tell him everything that happened here and the news that the two of us went to Xueman! He should need to do some things about this too! ”
"But ......"
"Nothing, it's an order!" Hamiya turned her face blank, and Hadava had no choice but to accept her life.
"That'...... I wish you both success! We'll see you in Dugu City! ”
"Hmmm! I also wish you a smooth journey, see you in Dugu City! ”
With that, Hamia and Asa left Alvor's house together and hurriedly disappeared into the night.
