"It's really unexpected that the enemy is hiding in this place. Looking at the spring blankly, Derno was inexplicably a little frustrated: "If only I had thought of it earlier, I wouldn't have spent so much effort." It's really thanks to you that we've been able to clear out the enemy's den this time. ”

"Words of thanks should be left at the celebration of the success of the battle. The expression was extremely relaxed, but the elf did not look so confident: "Anyway, I can't blame you for this." Winterfell is so big, of course, it's hard to find. ”

There was no nervousness at all to talk to this man, and he exuded a relaxed atmosphere...... "That's why it's so old." Pinching the tiger's mouth in his left hand to ward off the cold, the adjutant muttered: "There were also suggestions before that the cold snow castle with an unknown number of secret rooms should be recovered, otherwise it would be too unsafe for the lord to live. But Mistress Mace resolutely refused, and no one said it again. ”

"As I say, it's really unwise to remove the cover. Frowning, Sebodart's tone became stronger: "If I were Lord Mace, I would definitely try to figure out what his ancestors were doing in the castle to build these secret passages, and why not tell the descendants about their existence." ”

"I guess it's not clear to the ancestors, right? But it's unlikely that the enemy did it. After thinking about it, Deerno suddenly found another possibility: "By the way, in the past, Cold Snow Castle was a fortress on the front line of the battle? ”

"If that's the case, then there's no explanation why they weren't told to future generations. As if to make a joke, the elf casually said, "Maybe it's because there are some terrifying creatures sealed in the underground passages, or maybe there is an evil artifact at the end of the underground labyrinth that can't be known?" ”

"That's how you explain it...... It seems to make some sense. After thinking about it carefully, Deerno solemnly proposed: "It can perfectly explain why the existing Mace family does not know about the existence of secret passages." Because the ancestors wanted to keep these secrets in their memories......"

"Wait, don't take it seriously. Hurriedly making a stop gesture, the elf smiled and looked at the adjutant: "There is no evidence that this line of thinking is correct, but if it is not wrong, the story behind it is far more terrifying than the Black Ice Death." ”

"It's because there's no evidence that you have to guess. The nature was ticked off, and Denorn said excitedly, "Do you think, if we-"

"Captain, the wooden ladder is ready!" a sudden shout from the spring interrupted Denor's words and choked him back into his throat, "Do you want to give the order to attack?"

"Standby! No one is allowed to enter without my order!" Just as he was about to finish that sentence, Edus's loud roar choked back the vibration of his throat again: "Each group quickly line up and climb to the ground in turn!"

"What did you just want to say?" After these unusually deafening yells were over, the elf asked with great concern, "No one is speaking now." ”

"No, nothing. Hanging his head in frustration, Deenor sadly felt that he was as worthy of spurning as a weak and incompetent coward: "Forget it, you're right. There's no basis for this in theory, and I shouldn't have said it. ”

But it's not that I'm reluctant to say baseless speculation, but because I'm afraid of being questioned and criticized by others...... Sure enough, I've been like this all my life, only daring to say things that are completely uncontroversial, and not wanting to get into arguments that might hurt me. The old professor who taught illusion used to teach me said that I had a very bad personality and a serious lack of self-confidence.

"Derenor, come here!" In the distance, Eders yelled impatiently, "Didn't you tell your lieutenant to stay with the captain?"

"Captain, you didn't let me stay here to protect-" He craned his neck very aggrievedly, and before Deer Nor could he finish half a sentence, he was rudely interrupted by the captain again: "Okay, what are you grinding?

"Yes, yes, Captain!" was taken aback by Edus, and the shrinking Delno immediately coaxed and obediently shut his mouth. Smiled at the two of them awkwardly to show that he was not accompanied, he hurriedly pulled up his legs, and ran to the captain's side as fast as he could: I don't know why, Eders is in a bad mood now. In short, don't mess with him, or just make trouble for yourself. He didn't do this just now, what happened now?

"Deerno, you will be the first to go down with me in a moment. Glancing at the adjutant, the captain said in a tone of hatred for iron and steel: "Can you straighten my waist and be like a gentleman?" Show some guard courage, and don't forget why you entered this business!"

But I really don't know why I want to get into this business?" Hurry up and do as the captain said, Deno was a little panicked by the captain: "Captain...... What the hell is going on?"

"Nothing happened. With the anxiety that was characteristic of pre-war in his tone, Eders was picking up a piece of paper and blowing his nose, and his tone softened slightly: "It's just that the battle plan is ahead of schedule...... That's it. I'm not nervous at all. ”

"But you do look super nervous, Captain. Blurted out, Derno asked, "Is it really okay?"

"I'm scared of! As if he was in the middle of the hole, Eddes pretended to be extremely calm, but his fingers trembled slightly: "The captain is 'not' afraid, Denor...... You have to hide all your timidity in front of the soldiers and behave more heroically than everyone else. In this way, the morale of the players can be improved. Remember this, Dereno. You'll need it when you become a captain in the future. ”

"I ...... Confused, Deirno stammered, "My lord, am I your adjutant?" and I'm so timid and useless that I can't even command a child to carry a plate. How can this be a commander......"

"It's not easy to change from deputy to regular? It's good that no one is on top of it. With a sudden sad look, Eddes looked directly into Derno's eyes and slowed down his tone: "As for command skills and temperament, they can be cultivated. Maybe you don't feel like you're the right person for me right now, but that's just because you don't have much chance to try. ”

"Captain, what are you talking about?" said Derno, making him feel more and more uneasy, "Did you talk to anyone about something just now......?"
