Chapter 8: Catherine of the Eagle's Nest

(Ask for a commuter pass, ask for a recommended ticket!!) οΌ‰

………………………………

"If you are in trouble, you must keep redeeming yourself. For pain, some people will pass away, some people will be trapped in it, and some people will see a special light......"

The girl's back slowly walked away in the misty sight, fading away like a lotus flower entering water!

A special look naturally emerged from the corners of Aaron's mouth, and only from the sound of his voice, people had to marvel at her elegant light.

Because of this, Aaron must have been able to easily pull her out of the crowd the next time they met, even though Aaron hadn't seen her face.

"Take out the wheat bread, we won't kill you!"

A little bit of food in winter is precious, sweeping the unfriendly face, and from Aaron's pupils, sparks burst out from time to time.

Although Aaron has regained some of his strength to sustain the fight, he will never fight for a little bit of food like a dog.

Hungry, but bearable. Two days without eating, and not a single Spartan starved to death.

Take out the wheat cake in your arms and throw it forward. Standing up, Aaron said one word indifferently, "Get out!" ”

……

Ten minutes later.

Along the stretch of the street, three men and two women, the most conspicuous of which are backs, lined with long black hair, reveal their steady and dignified temperament.

"Catherine, if I'm not mistaken, this is the second time you've made a move that doesn't fit your identity."

The young man who spoke, with a straight figure. and a very broad and firm chest, although the face is immature, but the beard is carefully maintained by essential oils. It can be proved that he is an adult, but it can be heard from his tone, and he seems to be very dissatisfied with the scene just now.

"Lesne, son of the Earl, speak to your sister, and watch your tone."

Among the three men and two women, the older middle-aged man spoke to remind the young man named Lesne.

"Chief of the Utre Guard. I'm the future Earl of Eagle's Nest, shouldn't I remind my family members to pay attention? You know, this is the Emperor's central domain. Not in the North. ”

Under the squinting gaze of the captain of the Uhtre guard, Lesne's voice became quieter and quieter, and it seemed that he had not forgotten the Earl's instructions to be the leader of the mission to Stone Gang City this time. It's Uhtre.

"Uncle Uhtre. Have you ever noticed that the man...... He's actually silver-haired and silver-eyed......"

At this time, Catherine, who had not spoken, finally expressed her suspicions.

If you look at it from the front, you can see that Catherine is delicate, with a fair complexion, and under the black cloak, she wears a dark leather armor like her companions. But under the light of her face, no matter how low-key she dresses. It has also become colorless.

And Catherine's implication seemed to be understood by the rest of her peers.

Silver-haired and silver-eyed, all people in the North should know that it is the Grand Duke of the North, the bloodline symbol of the Reinhardt family.

"Hahahaha, Uncle Uhtre...... Chief of the Guard, do you hear that? Catherine meant that the unkempt beggar, the ruler of the North, a member of the famous House of Reinhardt. Hahaha. ”

Lesne, the son of the earl, seemed to have heard a big joke, and took a sip of the warm wine that had just been put in his mouth, and couldn't help but squirt forward. The leather-gloved fingers wiped the wine from the corners of his mouth, and his shrugging shoulders still couldn't contain his laughter.

At this time, even the always serious Uhtre Captain couldn't help but smile and said meaningfully.

"Miss Catherine, there is no such coincidence in this world. …… Moreover, even if you do meet the members of the Reinhardt family, it will not be the same as before. The expectations of the Eagle's Nest people and the intentions of the Earl, I hope you can understand. ”

Not only the captain of the Uhtre guard, but also several people in the same company knew in their hearts that the northern border of today is no longer the northern border of the past.

And since the death of Samon, the Grand Duke of the North, Simon, who inherited the throne of the duke, has been fighting the war with the West under the banner of avenging his father.

Successive defeats have torn apart the northern continent, and like many northern realms, Eagle's Nest, which has signed an armistice with the western realm, has essentially broken away from the ruling jurisdiction of the northern realm. To put it mildly, they are the shameless betrayers in the mouth of the Grand Duke of Simon.

The Huawei guidance of the captain of the Uhtre guard is more about comforting and admonishing Catherine. "The marriage of the Eagle's Nest to the House of Reinhardt, in the youngest son of the Duke of Samon's Aaron. Reinhardt', from the day of his disappearance, has been nullified. On this trip, in addition to signing this year's trade agreement with Shigangcheng, we also signed a new marriage contract with the Earl family of Shigangcheng. ”

Eagle's Nest City occupies the Gobi, the largest mountain in the northern continent, and the Eagle's Nest people do not produce, only iron ore and coal are the resources they rely on for their livelihood.

Shigang City is the only trade transit point connecting the four continents and the central region. Without the support of the Earl of Stone Gang City, the Eagle's Nest would have been poor and even starving.

"Uncle Uhtre, I understand."

Catherine nodded slightly, giving the captain of the Uhtre guard an approving look.

Unlike the Earl's son, Lesne, he is about to marry a wife from Stone Hills.

Catherine, the daughter of the earl, and Lina, the daughter of the count, who accompanied them, if nothing else, they will stay in this stone hill city for the rest of their lives.

In general, in the Central Empire, political marriages like this were common and common.

"Sister Catherine, are you still thinking about the fiancΓ© you've never met? …… There have been many legends about that name lately, and some say that Aaron was a powerful king of the Temple. I have also heard that there was a king of the sub-gods named Aaron. ”

Telling the gossip story that made everyone shake their heads and smile bitterly, Lina squinted at Catherine with a smile, and a thin black mole at the corner of her mouth made it even more pretty. He doesn't seem to be distressed by his engagement.

Appearance, Lina and Catherine look a little similar. is also as white as new, peeling fresh ling, only to see her melon seed face, quite pretty, and her age seems to be one or two years younger than him.

With her slender hands as white as jade, brushing Lina's long, slightly curled, seaweed-like hair, Catherine was smiling, but her eyes were indifferent.

Her memory is obviously still stuck in the scene of entering the city last night and the chance encounter just now.

The Marriage Covenant of the Infancy, 'Augustus. Aaron. Reinhardt' occupied her heart for a long time.

Whether it's the beggar or the sadness, maybe it's just an illusion.

"At the end of this walkway, there is the palace of the city lord of Shigang City. Wait here while I deliver the Earl's letter. ”

Like the rest of the staff, with an eagle flying on his chest, Deputy Chief of Guard Brim reminded. (To be continued......)
