Chapter 10: The Youth
When Constantine came to his senses again, he was standing in a cold cemetery.
This is a cemetery outside Winterfell.
Then Constantine was stunned, for he saw a familiar figure standing under his "tombstone", staring at the handwriting on it in a daze.
It's Kayan.
Sensing the movement behind him, Kayan turned his head.
The moment she saw Constantine, she froze.
Without exclaiming, the two stood silently on the snow, staring at each other, unable to take their eyes off each other.
This time, it was Constantine who took the initiative to come up, took her in his arms, and hugged her tightly.
Gayan bit his lip tightly, and his eyes flashed with a few crystals: his voice trembled a little: "Master Agnes said that you went to the Void Desperate Realm, and..."
Constantine didn't answer, Agnes probably had learned of it from Laplace, and any mage from Daybreak knew how dangerous it was.
Of course, Agnes did not choose to hide the situation of the Desperate Plane from Kayan.
Constantine could not have imagined how Gayan had worried about himself and experienced despair during these days.
"I secretly ran back from my uncle. Kayan said softly. "I thought you would never come back. ”
Looking at her slightly pale and haggard face, Constantine felt a lot of guilt for no reason.
"I'm sorry. Constantine said softly, "This time, I will not leave again." ”
Kayan's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"Of course. Constantine nodded and said softly.
......
The night was deep
The cozy atmosphere wafted in the small room near the cemetery, and Constantine used his magic to raise a fire in the fireplace, roasting a hare caught from the surrounding valley, and Gayan sat beside him, crossed his legs, and watched him quietly.
The aroma filled the cabin.
Everything seems to have returned to the dozens of days in the snowfield, peaceful and tacit.
During the chat, from Jiayan's mouth, Constantine also learned a lot about what is happening on the continent now, and as the commander of the Great Army, the information provided by Jiayan is naturally extremely credible.
To Constantine's relief, many things related to him are developing in a good direction.
For example, in the days when he left, the life of the Azerollians was getting better and better, and because of Brillouin, the oppression of Azeroya by the dragon lance continued to decrease.
The little girl named Freya, after becoming the president of the Chamber of Commerce, showed a rather rare talent and kept the Chamber of Commerce in order.
The Golden Clover Merchant Group has recovered, and no one of the thieves dares to pay attention to the Chamber of Commerce convoy anymore.
And those who dared to do so were all taught to be human beings by the three original heretical members of the Chamber of Commerce.
With the blessing of these three killing gods, the trade of the Chamber of Commerce was unimpeded, even extending to the Holy Empire.
And the middle-aged knight who was let go by Constantine on the snowy field is said to have returned to Sunset City and become a famous mercenary captain.
I heard that there are many more tourists in the hotels in Fengxue Town, and this autumn, the deserted town has recently begun to flourish again.
On the side of the Holy Empire, Diana is now the de facto leader of the Church.
Most of the students at the Royal Academy of Magic have now graduated.
Heine's guy went to the Duchy of Fran after graduation, and the magic level of this thing was not very good, but he caused a sensation in the aristocratic circle of Fran with a few beautiful poems and became famous.
Not long ago, Heine was successfully engaged to Juno, the eldest daughter of the Grand Duke of Fran, which attracted a lot of attention.
In this regard, Constantine smiled, knowing those things back then, he naturally understood that Julius must have helped a lot in this, which can be regarded as a reward for Constantine to stand for him back then.
There are also the knights who accompanied him to the martial arts conference back then, and now they are also doing very well.
The only thing that silenced Constantine was that the Pope had not appeared for a long time.
A month ago, the Great Temple of Radiance disappeared into Olympia City, causing countless people in the entire continent to be shocked and speculated, even if an earthquake occurred in the capitals of the two empires at the same time, I am afraid that it would not cause such a big reaction.
"How's the dragon lance?" asked Constantine.
"Fortunately, in the Dragon Vein family, Duke Alexander, the leader, has expressed his support for my brother to succeed to the throne. ”
Gayan cut his hair, "But it doesn't matter, Master Agnes and Uncle are on my side, among the dragon knights, Lord Ophilo has clearly expressed his support for me, and among the remaining families, the Red Dragon family supports me, and three other families remain neutral, and the Vismal family, which has always opposed me, has lost Caulfield, and now there is no need to worry." ”
Constantine nodded, with the support of a magister and a dragon knight, Gayan had already won half of this battle for the throne, and with her dragon vein talent, defeating that duke in the future was just around the corner.
Seemingly, there is nothing to worry about anymore.
"Then there's no problem. Constantine said, blowing on the steaming rabbit and handing it to Gayan.
Kayan didn't answer, but stared at Constantine seriously, with an inexplicable light flowing in the depths of his eyes, "No, there is still a problem that needs to be solved. ”
"What's the problem?" Constantine chuckled inwardly, and from the look in Gayan's eyes, he actually read a slight sense of danger, like a prey targeted by a female dragon.
Kayan said very generously and directly: "I want a child. ”
Constantine suddenly felt the urge to turn around and run.
But unfortunately, even though he was now an archmage, in this regard, at this distance, he really had little chance to resist in the face of a mature dragon vein.
Time passed quietly.
The flames in the room turned from bright to gray, but on the walls, the two entangled figures never separated.
The north wind outside the cemetery was whistling, but the blood-pumping sound could still be faintly heard in the wind, and even the sharp wind of the northern land could not drown out the wild and seductive moans of the dragon veiners.
It turns out that in this kind of thing, the innate instinct of the dragon vein is better than everything, and Constantine, who is one of the top ten hunters in the continent and a new magister, was completely crushed in this war and had no power to fight back.
As Constantine deepened, her moans had turned into almost dragon-like screams, which, combined with her proud figure, aroused the desire in people's hearts even more, making people crazy and even unable to extricate themselves.
After midnight, Constantine, exhausted and sweaty, lay on top of Kayan and fell into a deep sleep like a child, suddenly feeling that happiness could be so simple.
.......
The days passed like snowflakes in Winterfell in the sun.
With tranquility and joy, Constantine savored this long-lost tranquility.
At sunrise, they walked hand in hand in the ravine outside Winterfell, and at sunset, they climbed the hill and sat on the snow, watching the picturesque twilight together, just like what they had witnessed when they were young.
Before you know it, it's dusk again.
They sat on the main peak of the Asgardian Mountains, where the air was cold and thin, but both Gayan and Constantine were no longer ordinary people, so they would naturally be fine.
The sunset is like fog, and the mountain wind is like a knife.
At the top of the sea of clouds, they looked at the slowly falling sun, the clouds covered them with a warm golden red, and the gale howled at a height of a thousand meters, but when they approached them, they were blocked by an invisible barrier.
"You say, could this be what Odin saw in his prophecy?" muttered Constantine, looking at the distant twilight.
"What is Odin?" said Kayan, resting his head on Constantine's shoulder, his voice calm and seren, contented.
"That's an old story. Constantine smiled.
He is no longer Odin, no longer has the power to peer into his fate, and has become a mortal.
Perhaps [Odin] will still be reborn in a new identity in the future, but that has nothing to do with Constantine.
That's actually good, Constantine thought quietly, looking at the sunset.
What should we do in the rest of the years?
Constantine looked up at the sky and thought in a daze...
Then he saw some of the images.
A storm blows in the depths of the desperate situation, and the sky collapses everywhere it goes.
In the midst of this earth-shattering storm, several figures are fighting stubbornly against Fenrir, the stormmaker.
Among those figures, there were people familiar to Constantine, such as the Pope, and ...... Siegfried.
Then, a divine light familiar to Constantine bloomed from the void and illuminated everything in heaven and earth.
