The confidential documents sent by the courier caused Warrent, as the Duke of Snow Castle, to immediately gather his men and important members of the family to convene an emergency meeting in the conference room.

Except for Mrs. Lisa, who did not attend, the people whose names Su Wen remembered or remembered their faces were all concentrated in that conference room.

They probably don't even know the news of Marlena's return, right?

Under Ellie's strong wishes, the group didn't even have time to put down their luggage, so they went to the cafeteria and enjoyed their first meal back to Snow Castle.

To be honest, the people except Ellie were not very hungry, but they seemed a little sleepy because of the long journey and seasickness.

Ellie is the only one who really enjoys supper. Maybe Mia, who feels the food of the new faction, can also be counted as one, but she basically only tries the taste of every dish.

The children of Snow Castle returned to their bedrooms, and Su Wen and the three were arranged to have three rooms.

As the night deepened, the snow in the snow castle began to get heavier. Shortly after the Winter Festival, there seems to be a hint of festive atmosphere in the entire snow castle.

Su Wen didn't sleep, but after taking a comfortable hot bath, he put on his nightgown and wandered to a certain platform in the snow castle.

The platform faced the city's least developed plebeian quarter, and Warrent often visited this place, looking at the scenery in front of him and thinking about how he could be a good duke.

Those who only have beautiful scenery in front of them cannot be regarded as a good ruler, and only those who dare to face problems are qualified.

When Su Wen came to this platform, he found a somewhat unexpected, but reasonable figure.

It's Marina.

"Don't sleep, you?" Su Wen walked up to Marina and asked.

"Aren't you the same?" Marlena looked at the sporadic lights in Snow Castle City, and didn't turn her head to look at Su Wen.

Su Wen smiled, also looked at the scenery in the city, and did not speak.

Marlena was still wearing the same clothes as when she returned to the snow castle, but because of the cold weather, she put on a thick cloak, and the snowflakes falling on the cloak had already accumulated a thin layer. It is clear that she has been standing here for a long time.

The two were silent for more than ten seconds, and Su Wen suddenly said: "I thought that the high-intensity studies of the comprehensive department would allow you to develop a good work and rest time." ”

"If it weren't for your magic, I would have been exhausted. ”

Ma Lina tilted her head slightly and looked at Su Wen with a smile.

"Not necessarily. Su Wen also smiled.

Even without Su Wen's help, Ma Lina alone can carry it, right? After all, Ma Lina's willpower is one of the best among the people Su Wen has ever seen.

This eldest lady who was born in Snow Castle, grew up in a small village in the south, and returned to Snow Castle because of Falos and Warrent, is much more powerful than she looks.

The two fell silent again, neither of them seemed to mind the other's presence, and each was immersed in their own thoughts.

When the snow covered Su Wen's hair, Marlena turned her head again and said to Su Wen as if talking to herself: "In this semester, my father has done a lot of work...... For example, the renovation of the roads in the snow castle city, the planning of the civilian area in front, and the southern city wall seem to be about to start construction, and it seems that the scale of the snow castle will be expanded......"

Su Wen didn't speak, just looked at Marlena and showed her, "I'm listening." ”

“...... On top of that, Wentini, the little lady, seems to be back on stage......"

"You can see that, too?"

Ma Lina nodded, as if she was a little melancholy: "My father, who is sandwiched between me and the little lady, seems to have come out of the entanglement very quickly, and he is quite capable of using the power of the Black Rope Society for his own use." ”

"There is a classic saying in my hometown, called, a family, the most important thing is to be neat. ”

"The next sentence is not it, what about being a man, the most important thing is to be happy?"

Su Wen was stunned for a moment, staring at Ma Lina, as if asking how do you know.

Marlena sneered and said to Su Wen, "Ellie told me that she usually doesn't leave you for three sentences when they're together." ”

Su Wen picked the snow off his head and nodded.

"But that little girl's personality is still like that, and it hasn't changed much. ”

"I think she's changed a lot. Su Wen said seriously.

"Yes, it's changed a lot......"

Su Wen is very aware of what Marlena has experienced, and it is not easy to judge the matter between her and Wentini, so he can't give Marlena any useful advice on this issue.

Sometimes silence is much better than unscrupulous comfort.

And Su Wen was also sure that in Marina's heart, she already had the answer. Because of her eyes, she is not confused.

"Su Wen. ”

"Huh?"

"I'm a little curious about where you came from. Marina looked ahead and said as if jokingly, "Sometimes, I even suspect that you have come from the gods. ”

"Am I so powerful?" Su Wen asked rhetorically.

Marlena smiled and said nothing.

"There must be some special reason for you to be around Ellie, right? I thought about it for a long time, but I still didn't have an answer to it. ”

"Ellie's own strength has grown by leaps and bounds, and it can't be separated from you, right? Ellie is so powerful, your words, I can't imagine it anymore. ”

"You can help me gain a foothold in Snow Castle, and it seems that it is also for Ellie's affection...... Oh no, it must have been on your whim, right?"

Su Wen picked his head embarrassedly and said, "Actually, it's not ......."

"Don't interrupt. Ma Lina interrupted Su Wen and continued, "The advanced ideas of the combat practice class in the academy, the advanced magic facilities on the field, and the attitude of the deans towards you......

"And the ship we were on. Marina's expression became serious: "I don't think you know the strategic significance of this battleship, right? They may not have this concept, but I know it very well...... With this battleship alone, you almost have the strength to compete with an empire......"

"Actually, that ship is running out of energy......" Su Wen interjected weakly.

"In the entire history of mankind, there has been no existence like you. So, I feel more and more, which god are you incarnated......"

"Which god is it?"

"I don't know, this knowledge will be taught in the comprehensive department next semester. ”

"Oh so......"

"In addition, you are also a must-have in terms of the ability to change the subject. ”

"No. Su Wen smiled lightly: "By the way, how far have you and Wavansen developed?"

“......”
