"I know Valhalla doesn't have a place for me...... But perhaps there should be a place for Inna—if even the warrior who killed the Lion King can't enter Valhalla, then what kind of person is qualified to do so? ”

Gondor nodded, his face flushed, his beard dipped into the cup with his nod, and he looked like he was drunk.

Only the lowered but incomparably bright eyes revealed that he was extremely awake at this time.

Vides and Aydin looked at each other.

It turns out that this is the reason why Gondor has been boasting about his son's 'achievements'......

Indeed, if heroic fighting can be recognized by Valhalla, then the 'hero' who single-handedly killed the Lion King should also be qualified to enter Valhalla.

"We'd better find a quiet place......"

Vidis led Aydin and Gondor to the balcony upstairs of the hall.

"Kill the Lion King, this is my long-standing wish. As for the war we are about to face...... I'll do my best to kill all enemies, and I'll solve the trouble caused by Inna! ”

After leaving the crowd, Gondor no longer showed any drunkenness, he rubbed his flushed face, tied his long hair back to his head, and looked at Vidice seriously.

"We all know that you suffered some injustice in the Lion Realm when you were younger, and I won't blame Inna for your actions...... But, Gondor, it is impossible for the king-killer to become a lord anymore, nor to inherit your business, as you should understand. ”

Vides nodded and patted Gondor on the shoulder.

"I understand, I certainly understand, that no kingdom can tolerate the presence of kingkillers...... But he can be the next doom seeker, and the sea will give him a future! ”

Gondor could certainly understand that King Vidis had managed to turn Fields from a pirate alliance into a kingdom.

Since it is a kingdom, it is natural that it cannot openly agree with this kind of king-killing behavior of Inna.

If it weren't for the fact that Vides and Gondor did have a good relationship, it is estimated that Inna's head would have been in a box full of lime by now.

He constantly boasted about Inna's 'great deeds' at the banquets, in fact, in order to make the relatively simple-minded Fields Lord see Inner as a 'good man who killed the enemy monarch'.

On the one hand, this will make Inna safer when it is not found.

On the other hand, he tried to get his comrades from Van Skerry to identify with him, or rather, with Inna.

In the mythical stories of the gods of the ice sea, there are many monarch killers, and the monarch killers in the story are indeed all brave heroes.

Anyway, it wasn't his own king who was killed, and those pirates would definitely regard Inna's 'great achievements' as legendary......

This strong man, who seems to be more rugged and unrestrained than most Vanderskerie pirates at the banquet, is not really a reckless man - the doomer who can earn a fortune from scratch can't be a reckless man, and his roughness and heroism are just to fit in with the group.

It's just that only Vides and Adin, a half-way friend, know Gondor true temperament.

People live in dependence on their environment.

Of course, there are great people who are able to change their environment, and even make it dependent on him.

But it is clear that Gondor was not such a great man.

In his life, he had a lot of adventures, a position he had earned on the battlefield, a fortune he had accumulated over the years, a great reputation, and barely a good child—compared to the average person, Gondor was definitely a successful man.

But he was still in pain.

Because he was not accepted by the people of his hometown of the Lion Realm, and he was not recognized by Fieldsway's comrades-in-arms.

For Gondor, this meant that he had not found a true home in his life.

Moreover, this situation of ideological homelessness will inevitably continue to his children as well.

Now that Inna can't become a lord, Gondor wants Inna to follow the path he once walked and find the future on the sea.

Therefore, since he got the news, he has been helping Inna create a character and reputation that can be followed by pirates - a brave man who kills kings alone, and a warrior who gives up everything for love.

"Gondor, you've been working hard at sea for half your life, do you still plan to let your son live at sea in the future? Do you really think that by naming him the Power of the Sea, you will be able to get the protection of the Sea King? ”

Earl Aydin shook his head: "I have a plan to give your son a better future - if Inner succeeds, not only will he become the lord of Fields directly, but Valhalla will also leave him a good place...... It can even leave a good spot for you! ”

"What kind of plan?"

Gondor looked up, "Indeed, not being able to be recognized by the brothers of Van Skerry is something that has plagued me all my life. But this matter, except for the rebirth of a different mother, does not seem to be able to solve the problem......"

"There is a way...... If your son Inna can become the leader of the Heroine Warriors, if he leads the Warriors who guard Valhalla to fight for Fieldsway, then everyone will agree with him, and they will identify with you. ”

Count Aydin raised his glass towards Gondor.

"That way, we don't have to look at Queen Agnus's face all the time...... We can even use those Heroic Warriors as a base to build a real Valhalla in this Mist Cage City! Gondor, your son can become the guardian of Valhalla! ”

Vidis added the final conclusion to this conversation.

Valhalla, of course, is not a physical palace, it is a fictional kingdom of heaven like the 'kingdom of God' of other religions.

But Vidis really intends to materialize it - he wants the lords of Fields to see Fields as their afterlife.

Queen Agnus of Van Skerry controls the pirates in the same way that she controls the faith, and Vidis naturally wants to do the same.

Of course, more importantly, Queen Agnus has shown that she is no longer willing to cooperate with Vidis, and Vidis does not want to continue to send offerings every year, and it is not easy to be sucked by blood all the time.

Add to that the presence of Mirgan - for Vidis, Milgan is the enemy who kills his friend.

But this enemy turned out to be the queen's 'favorite concubine', which means that there will be a lot of uncertainty about Van Skerry's future, and this uncertainty is most likely not good for Fieldsway.

At the same time, in the face of the Lion Kingdom's attack, Fieldsway needs to get more armed forces.

Aydin was the one who knew Vidis's heart best, so he made this plan.

The plan was not complicated, first let Inna gain Milgan's trust, then use Queen Agnus's guards to get rid of Milgan, and finally let Inna bring back the Heroic Warriors and build a physical 'Valhalla' in Mist Cage City.

This would not only allow them to obtain these two powerful forces that belonged to Queen Agnus, but also eliminate the uncertain factor of Mirgan, and also allow all the lords to see that the Immortal warriors were under the command of Lord Vidis - for the pirates, this meant that Vidis replaced Queen Agnus as the administrator of Valhalla.

That way, those pirate lords won't always want to go back to Van Skerry, they will fight for Fieldsway, for Valhalla in Mist Cage City.

This will greatly increase Fieldsway's combat effectiveness, especially when facing attacks from the Lion Kingdom.

A few days later, with the combined efforts of Count Aydin and Gondor, Inna appeared in the village of Qilu and became Mirgan's assistant.

Inna did easily gain Mirgan's trust.

One killed the Lion King, the other killed the Duke of Lion Lake, and both of them were good swordsmen, and they were both wanderers from the Lion Realm.

They are fellow villagers and have similar experiences, and they actually have a lot of common language.

Plus, Mirgan really needs a helping hand at this time - the Heroic Warriors have never been to Pander Continent, and they only speak the language of Van Skerry.

Milgan, on the other hand, is a native of the Lion Realm, and does not speak Vanskary, so it is not easy to communicate with female warriors.

But Inna grew up in the Van Skerry pirate community, and he spoke both languages.

After communicating with the Heroic Warriors, Inna learns why they were tricked by Mirgan......

In fact, these female warriors followed Mirgan to the Pander Continent, not because of Mirgan's handsome appearance.

Rather, it was because Milgan claimed that he could lift Queen Agnus's curse.

Queen Agnus gave birth to three children in the intervening years, but each of them was a premature stillbirth, which naturally meant some kind of curse for the superstitious Van Skerry people.

But no one knows where this so-called 'curse' comes from.

It wasn't until Mirgan fled to Van Skerry and succeeded in making the Queen fall in love with him that he felt it was a good opportunity for him to return to Pander......

So, Mirgan told the queen that this curse was most likely from the three prophets of the Pander continent - it was a black cauldron anyway, and it was the right size to be deducted from the three prophets.

Milgan brought up to Queen Agnus about the great battle between Fields and the Three Prophets last year.

He had indeed witnessed the battle - it was just as he was about to flee overseas, when the Three Prophets were commissioned by King Ulrik to cause trouble near Fogcage City.

Thus, this curse was interpreted to mean that the Fields Kingdom had a holiday with the Three Prophets, so the Three Prophets placed the curse on the head of the Pirate King......

The best way to lift the curse is, of course, to kill the person who inflicted it, so Mir Gan volunteers to solve the problem for the 'beloved queen'.

If you want to solve the Three Prophets, you will naturally need a lot of manpower.

And this kind of witchcraft-related thing, of course, will be done by female warriors who believe in finding and protecting heroic souls, so the queen asked Mirgan to return to the Pander continent with three hundred heroic female warriors.

But Mirgan had not heard from him when he had left—according to the Heroic Warriors, they had not been in contact with the Queen for four months, and had not seen even the hair of the Three Prophets in those four months.

Of course, Milgan was planning to use these female warriors to make a comeback, and he wouldn't go to the Three Prophets......

In fact, if it weren't for the language barrier, Milgan might have left the West Coast with them.

But the language problem is a big problem, because it makes it difficult for Mirgin to fool the female warriors.

Until now, he hadn't even been able to get the obedience of the female warriors - these heroic female warriors who didn't speak the language were easily overwhelmed by him.

In fact, Mirgan still hasn't slept a single female warrior, and he can't get the female warriors to carry out more complicated orders, so he has been staying in Qilu Village.

This is because the female warriors come from different backgrounds and beliefs, and the beautiful men they see are either heroes who are covered in blood on the battlefield, or fierce men with thick beards and strong chest hair—none of which are considered by Mirgan.

He can only deceive the queen who has a wider range of knowledge, has seen the world, and has been influenced by Pande's culture...... Queen Agnus certainly prefers a handsome guy like him because it's good for the genes of the next generation.

And Inna's arrival helped Mirgan solve a lot of trouble, and with the presence of this translator, Milgan can finally start to communicate with the female warriors.

It's just that the progress is slower.

Subsequently, Inna proposed a good plan to Mirgan.

Ulrik is dead, and the Lion Kingdom is marching towards Fieldsway's High Cliff Fort, at this time the hinterland of the Lion Kingdom must be empty, if he can take the opportunity to take Castle Changxiao, Mirgan can become the lord of Fieldsway.

This is a very reasonable proposition.

Inna's hometown is Howling Castle, and it was there that Inna met Anna a few months ago, and he knew that Howling Castle was almost an empty city, and most of them could be easily taken.

Coupled with the fact that it was indeed the territory of the Three Prophets, this was also very much in line with the goal of the female warriors coming to Pande, to be able to drive those female warriors.

At the same time, taking advantage of the war between the Lion Kingdom and Fieldsway to carry out a sneak attack, this is also a good time.

There really was no reason for Milgan to turn down such an opportunity - to get a base, to become a lord of Fieldsway, and to gain the trust of the female warriors.

As a result, Inna not only became Mirgan's most trusted assistant, but also the one who actually commanded the Heroic Warriors - the importance of knowing a foreign language was evident at this time......

July 15, 356 Pander.

'Provocation' Inna and Mirgan led the Heroic Warriors to the outside of Howling Castle on this day.

This is the hottest time of summer.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of season is not suitable for sending troops to fight.

But all countries invariably started a big war on this day.

The Raven Kingdom's army, along with Godric's forces, launched an onslaught on Cragy Bay.

Half of the Lion Knights followed Brenus to support themselves, and the battle was scorching.

A handful of Lion Knights simply disappeared - after the Lion Knights were declared illegal, they renounced their identities and left.

The other half-lion knight stayed in Ibeon and did not participate in the battle.

These lion knights followed the deputy commander Lehman, who did not involve them in any war.

Given that Sir Lehman had been a student of Godric, no one had attacked his territory at this time.

The Bacchus Empire, led by General Creon, invaded the Duchy of Dexia and occupied the fortress of Turda, the gateway to the northeast of Dexia.

It is said that Creon's army was now heading towards the town of Setu, northwest of Eichkoman, apparently preparing to turn Eichkoman into the hinterland of the Bacchus Empire.

The whole territory of Dexia is now in a chaotic situation, there are battles everywhere, and there is smoke all over the ground.

And the army of the Lion Kingdom has also gathered under the high cliff fort and began to confront Fieldsway's army.

Fieldsway's leader was Vidis himself;

The leader of the Lion Kingdom is the new Earl Leofric.

The reason for the confrontation is that the military forces on both sides are uneven - Count 'Red Sword' and 'Doom Seeker' Gondor have not yet arrived, and the marshal of the Lion Kingdom has not yet arrived.

Leon hadn't been to Fort High Cliff yet, as he had two more important things to do.

Ulrique's funeral is taking place, the real burial ceremony, and the king will be buried in the place where he was born, on the shores of Deer Heart Lake, next to the Queen's Town.

At the same time, Amy will also be crowned king on this day.
