"Three hours ago, a messenger magic whooper swan flew into our walls, and although it was wounded, it brought us a shocking piece of good news. I think you'll be very pleased, ma'am!"

"Really? Master Durlen, is it the Imperial army that has made progress again, is it the reinforcements of the Eastern Dukes approaching, why hasn't the bell tower of the Grimlin been ringing yet?"

After hearing the news from the outside world, Sophia raised her eyebrows happily, but soon showed a little disappointed look. Despite being cut off from land and water, the city of Kislev still maintains a little bit of a fragile connection to the outside world as much as possible, thanks to the sturdy Black-tailed Hawk and the whooper swan protected by ice and snow magic. Whether it was the arrival of the High Elves' fleet in the harbor of Erlengrad, or the arrival of the Empire's army into the land of Kislev, the news stirred the hearts of the entire city again and again, allowing the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians besieged to hold on.

In fact, the biggest news not long ago was the good news that Marshal Nayang's victorious army defeated tens of thousands of Chaos troops in Kharkiv. When the news was heard, the entire city of Kislevgrad boiled for half the night, and a few precious fireworks were released. It is said that Princess Caterina, who had never drunk alcohol at the time, drank alcohol, and for this purpose increased the daily ration for the citizens of the city. But when the whole city rang the magnificent bell for the first time, the city is now quiet, which is indeed somewhat unusual.

"This black swan did not bring great success, it brought a special piece of news, it was news of Midland, news of your hometown, news of your loved ones. Your loved ones have come with the great army of God's favor and glorious sword towards Kislevgrad, and I am sure that you and he will soon be able to meet him!"

The old monk in blue armor narrowed his eyes and brushed his sparse goatee with his hands, he deliberately sold a pass.

"Are you talking about His Highness Karl...... No, His Highness Karl has already led the army of Midlandan in battle in the Imperial Army, as I have known for a long time. Is it His Highness Felix? but I remember that he doesn't seem to be a god. Or do you mean he made a breakthrough......"

Sophia looked a little puzzled, she thought hard, and gently cupped her soft cheek. The morning sun shines through the car window, casting bright marks on her fair skin and long eyelashes. This beautiful lady's demeanor at this moment was very moving, like a little girl who was thinking.

"You're wrong! It's not Karl, it's not Felix, it's Hyde! It's the Valkyrie Princess's favorite son! The fog that clouded his soul has lifted, and the grace and brilliance of Mirmidia have given him glorious wisdom and Valkyrie's holy power! The Valkyrie Princess's brilliance has finally reappeared, and I know you will be the most joyful person here!"

Dalen's thunderous voice shook the little carriage, and Sophia, who had always been steady, suddenly stood up and shook the old monk's hand violently. This made the eyes of the two armed maidens widen in surprise, and they rarely saw their gentle lady so eager.

"Is what you said true?Has His Highness Hyde regained his senses?Has he finally inherited the power of Mother Anna?My esteemed Master Daleon, this can't be a dream!"

"Of course this is true! This is the letter of General Lukin! General Lukin has witnessed the heroism of His Highness Hyde! He has witnessed his heroic appearance in defeating the Chosen One of Chaos! The holy seal of Princess Valkyrie shines brightly in the night sky of the northern kingdom behind him, and a great warrior has been born in Midland! Lord Loren and your knight Marshall are also with him, and they are among the army that came to the rescue of Kislevgrad. It won't be long before you can meet again, and I'm sure that the spirit of the Valkyrie Princess in the sky will also be pleased to watch all this. ”

The bald old monk took Sophia's hand tightly and placed a small roll of parchment in the white palm of the noble lady. His voice was filled with indescribable joy, as if standing on a battlefield after victory.

"Thank you, my esteemed Master Daleon, for this good news...... Dear Mother Anna can finally take comfort in the fact that Her Highness Hyde has finally proved ...... Proving his glory!"

With that exciting call, the beautiful lady in black suddenly hugged the old monk in blue armor, her beautiful eyes shining with excitement, and fiery tears could not stop flowing down her cheeks.

"Yes, the whooper swan has brought great news, and even more delightful news than a great victory! The noble Valkyrie Princess has finally fulfilled her wish, and her son is no longer the steamer that is ridiculed...... I remember the days when you visited His Highness Hyde every month, and I remember your true affection for His Highness's sister...... It's been ten years, and you're finally going to meet again, may the immortal soul of Princess Valkyrie bless you forever!"

The cheetah monk named Dalen gently stroked Sophia's hair, like a grandfather comforting his young granddaughter, and his old face was filled with infinite affection. His voice became a little choppy because of his excitement, and glittering tears appeared in his deep green eyes.

"Finally, I would like to tell you another, even greater good news, and that is the good news for all of Kislev! The Empire's Great Eagle Messenger descended on the Remlin in the early hours of last night, for the Empire's army had joined forces with the reinforcements of the Eastern Dukes at Sdallund Castle! Thousands of Chaos armies have been annihilated, and a coalition of 200,000 steel troops have crossed the Tenez! They are marching towards Kislevgrad, and the time to lift the siege will soon come, let us wait for that glorious moment!"

A smile spread out from Master Dalene's face, and his voice shook the carriage like spring thunder. Almost at the same time, as if to prove all that he had said, the distant bells rang violently, and then countless bells reverberated and resonated! The melody of the hymn echoed in the sky with the bells, and the sound of countless cheers echoed over the majestic capital with the sound of gunfire. Sophia raised her head in ecstasy, her excitement so hard that she could barely speak. The two slender maids cheered excitedly, hugged each other tightly, and kissed like the closest friends. Their sweet voices were full of girlish joy, and the warrior's appearance had quietly disappeared.

A few days after the ecstasy in Kislevgrad ended, the dawn dawned at Starlund Castle on the north bank of the Tenez River. After a few heavy snowfalls, the weather became exceptionally good, and the clear sun shone on the endless snowfields and sparse pine forests, and on the tall towers and broken stone walls of the war-torn old castle. The white clouds slid gently across the blue sky, seemingly bringing a touch of warmth to the northern winter.

Starlund Castle is ancient, once a remnant of the great dwarven empire thousands of years ago, and once a place for barbarians to herd their horses. When the Kingdom of Kislev was founded, the majestic fortress became the stronghold of Kislevgrad in the southeast of the capital, and became a fortress for the Winged Cavalry and Musketeers. There were thousands of northern soldiers training and living here, and countless red military flags and white war bear coats of arms fluttered over the ancient castle year after year.

But six months ago, Starlund Castle fell into the hands of Chaos, and there was not even a fierce battle. That's because the royal army of Kislev has been destroyed in the Icewind Valley of Ugoland, and the city of Kislevgrad, which has almost no defenders, hurriedly gathers troops from various fortresses to defend their sacred capital, and the ancient fortress south of Kislevgrad bears the brunt, and the warriors leave the castle day and night with herds of cattle, horses, and baggage, and enter the royal capital of Kislevgrad with the red wall.
