The capital of the Queen Kingdom of Tistis, Urvasi.

It is a snowy city with a population of about 4 million and is mainly perched on a cliff.

The walls are white, and most of the buildings inside the castle are white, making it look as if they were made of snow, but in fact, the stone bricks that make up the walls and buildings are a special metal called "white burningstone".

It is a metal that naturally dissipates heat, causing the surrounding snow and ice to melt quickly.

The temperature inside the city is much higher than that outside the city, and the temperature inside the buildings can become very moderate, around 5°C-10°C, making Urwashi the paradise of the northern polar regions, and in the eyes of many residents of the Queen's Kingdom, it is the best and most comfortable place to live.

Outside the thick city gates, a white avenue descends the steep slope of the cliff, along with the ice field and the ice city that stands on top of the cliff.

If you look closely, you can also see that near the capital of the Queen's Kingdom, there is a faint transparent barrier that appears and disappears.

It was undoubtedly a magical barrier, a magical barrier used to protect Ulvahi.

With the protection of this magical barrier, there is no second way to enter Urvashi except for the gate of the avenue, and even if someone flies from the sky, if they don't destroy this barrier, they can't enter Urvashi.

Under such circumstances, the dragon chariot pulled by the three-headed beast appeared on the avenue of the steep slope of the cliff, and was approaching in the direction of Urwashi at an inhuman speed.

"Roar!"

"Whew!"

"Whew!"

A fierce roar sounded, and the guards guarding the city gate were also taken aback and fell into a commotion.

"What sound?"

"Is it an enemy attack?"

"Idiot! This is obviously the cry of a monster! ”

"Got a monster coming closer?"

"Be on guard! Alert! ”

Under the commotion, the guards quickly organized a defensive line and blocked the city gate, intending to stop the dragon cart.

Just as the guards were nervously preparing to fight the incoming monsters, the dragon cart suddenly braked sharply, slid through the snow, and stopped in front of the city gate with a large number of flying snowflakes.

"...... that?"

The guards seemed to have not seen the large carriage pulled by the three-headed beast until this time, and they were stunned for a moment.

Then, in the carriage of the dragon car, a man walked out.

This is a young woman over 20 years old.

"We were invited by the Berrier family." The other said to the guards, "This is the pass." ”

As she spoke, the young girl threw out a badge depicting the coat of arms of the Berrier family.

"Show me."

A man who looked more mature, who seemed to be the captain of the guards, stepped out and took the badge.

"It is indeed the coat of arms of the Berrier family." The captain first breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked quite worriedly: "Since there is the Count Berrier's family to endorse you, you can naturally pass." ”

"But...... Do you really want to let these three murderous creatures into the city? ”

"This, if something happens and hurts someone, we are not responsible."

The captain stammered these words, obviously not wanting to take any responsibility.

"Don't worry, they don't hurt." The young girl shrugged her shoulders and said, "Can we go in?" ”

The captain exchanged a glance with the rest of the men.

"Let's go inside."

After a while, the captain reluctantly agreed to the passage of the dragon cart, and after nodding, with a wave of his hand, the guards blocking the city gate separated left and right, making way out.

"Thank you."

The young girl dropped these words and immediately retracted into the carriage.

"Roar!"

"Whew!"

"Whew!"

As if they had received some orders, the alchemy war beasts and the subspecies frost dragons roared in unison, scaring the guards half to death, and at the same time, pulled the cart and walked into Urvahi.

"Captain......

Looking at the dragon cart that was gradually moving away, among the guards who watched the dragon cart leave, a man of the same age as the captain whispered in a low voice.

"What?" The captain glared at him and said, "I know what you're thinking, don't think about it so much, even if the other party is so suspicious, with the Berrier family backing them, we can't let people in." ”

"Or what do you want? To stop the other party? ”

"You can afford to offend the Berrier?"

The captain lowered his voice and said.

"It's not up to us to take care of this, just let the people above confront the Beryl family."

"We just play by the rules, and we don't know anything about the rest."

"Got it?"

Hearing this, the man nodded again and again, not daring to continue asking.

"Back to work!"

Only then did the captain relax his face and shouted to the guards around him, asking them to leave what they had just done and continue to perform their duties.

…………

"W-What is that?"

"Monsters?"

"How can there be a monster with gold all over its body?"

"What are those two snow-white monsters? Wurm? ”

"Oh my God, don't go near them."

When the dragon cart swaggered into the main street of Urwathi, all the citizens who encountered the dragon cart began to whisper in shock, pointing in the direction of the dragon cart, causing quite a stir.

There is no way, although there are special means of transportation in the north, unlike the rest of the mainland, which basically use horse-drawn carriages, but even if the means of transportation in the north are not horses, they will not be this special war beasts and monsters.

An alchemy war beast and two subspecies frost dragons, such a combination appeared on the street in a high-sounding manner, and it was impossible not to cause a sensation.

If it weren't for the alchemy war beasts and subspecies frost dragons pulling a cart in unison, looking like they were obviously mounts, I am afraid that some people would really start to wonder if there were monsters in the city and were ready to have a full meal here.

As a result, the dragon car went all the way under the guidance of the citizens on the side of the road, causing more and more sensation.

"See?"

Ivy, who had just stepped out of the carriage to hand in the pass, immediately complained as soon as she returned.

"I'll just say that this dragon car is too conspicuous to drive into the city."

Hearing Ivy's complaints, Liz also whispered a little restlessly.

"I feel like a lot of people are looking at this side, and I'm a little scared......"

Hearing this, Rig rubbed Liz's head and said with a smile.

"It's a bit high-profile, but what's the point?" Rige said: "Even if we sneak in, those who sent people to attack us will still know that we have arrived in Urvasi, in that case, it is better to come in and see what bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods will come out." ”

Janifit couldn't agree with Rige's statement.

"If it were in the past, when I returned to the capital, I would have to arrange the highest standard of greeting from the city gate, and now I don't want to sneak in, even though there is no such treatment."

Her Majesty was domineering, leaving Liz and Ivy a little stunned.

"I don't like to sneak around, that's fine." Leo said indifferently: "Anyway, if we stay in the carriage, the people outside can't see us, and we can't see people, so just ignore them." ”

"At this time, you can see it quite openly." Rig glanced at Leo and said, "Well, that's what it's all about, I don't believe anyone dares to attack us here." ”

While Rieger was speaking, Yanifet had already lifted the curtain and looked outside.

"Urwahi, ......"

Looking at this seemingly familiar and strange city, Yanifit muttered with a complicated expression for the first time.

"It's been a long time......"

Hundreds of years later, the city, which was once built under its own leadership, seems to have changed everything, and it seems that nothing has changed.

The people who live here have changed.

The buildings can still vaguely show some shadows of the past.

There was no snow on the road, no snow on the roofs of the buildings, and not even the ubiquitous wind and snow outside the city were absent here.

Thanks to the scorching stones, Urvasi, although it is known as a city of ice and snow, is the only city in the north that does not blow snow, does not cold, and does not allow people to freeze.

At first glance, it looks like a special chalk city, and there is no sign of a country that is in winter all year round.

"The Queen's Palace has arrived."

Lilith, who had been by Rige's side, suddenly spoke, causing everyone, including Yanifett, to look through the car door.

Soon, everyone saw an ice castle one after another.

It is very similar to the igloo in the land of the Tistis tribe, brick by brick seems to be made of ice, the surface is crystal clear, the appearance is delicate and elegant, much like the ice and snow city where Snow White will live in fairy tales, giving people a dreamy feeling.

“…… That's your idea too? ”

Rig glanced at Janifit and said this.

"It's just a reference to the architectural design of the clan's land." Yanifet said lightly: "It's not a bizarre thing, and the technology used is not outstanding, although the magic system used to defend against the enemy is set up inside, it is not as good as the strategic magic enchantment in the palace of King Jarugh of the Kingdom of Jinas." ”

"The original design concept of the Queen's Palace was not to ward off enemies, but to serve as a retreat for the Queen."

"Now, hundreds of years later, it seems that it has also become the royal palace of the Queen's Kingdom, the home of the royal family and the state."

As he spoke, the dragon cart headed towards the ice castle and finally reached the castle gate.

…………

In the Ice Castle, the top of a more conspicuous palace.

In the open-air garden here, a figure wearing an ice-blue palace costume and carrying a mysterious ancient white sword at his waist stood quietly in the wind.

She has the same ice-blue hair as Yanifit, but her eyes are not golden, but the same ice blue, and her palace clothes are also ice blue, and the whole person looks like a piece of ice that will not melt for thousands of years, exuding an icy temperament.

This is a woman who is even colder than Yanifet.

This is a Valkyrie who seems to have melted into the ice and snow and dominated the ice and snow.

For a moment, the Valkyrie, who was standing in the wind, seemed to feel something, and her eyes turned to the gate of the ice castle.

Although she couldn't see the situation there, the Valkyrie knew that the person ...... Here it comes.

"Is it finally here?"

The cold self-talk could not withstand the burning battle intent in the Valkyrie's eyes.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Rieg Brihaut."

Valkyrie's self-talk was echoed by a voice a few seconds later.

"Is the man finally here?"

In a frivolous voice like a hippie smile, the man who came behind the Valkyrie silently spoke.

"It's really jealous to make my 'Ice Girl' sister miss him."

These words, at first glance, seem to be ridiculing, but a trace of dark emotions in the heart is still exposed, which is the true feeling in the heart of the speaker.

In this regard, the Valkyrie didn't even say a word, turned around, and drew her sword was a violent slash.

"Choke!"

The blade of the sword pierced the atmosphere and let out a cold groan.

"Wait......?!"

The man standing behind the Valkyrie suddenly panicked, and jerked his head down, avoiding the sword that slashed at him.

The sharp slash grazed the man's scalp, and although it didn't shave the man's head, it also took away a lot of his hair, and the chill emanating from the sword also froze the hair, making a lot of frost form on the man's head.

"Be merciful! My "Ice Girl" sister! ”

The man who felt a chill above his head screamed in panic.

"Shut up." Valkyrie said coldly, "I should have told you, right?" If you dare to break into my palace without my consent, I will cut you. ”

"Also, don't call me the Ice Girl here, I'm not yours."

"The next time you do it again, even if the Fire Queen pleads for you here, I'll cut you."

Valkyrie's merciless words made the man quickly smile and said, "I'm not here to show intimacy." ”

"No, I don't." The Valkyrie still said coldly: "I'm not close to you." ”

"Why—How is that?" The man suddenly became aggrieved and shouted, "Anyway, we also grew up together?" Strictly speaking, it can be regarded as a childhood sweetheart, right? If this were someone else, it might even be a child...... Woo-ah......! ”

In the middle of speaking, the man screamed in panic again, rolled on the spot, and rolled to the side.

"Huh!"

The chilling slash suddenly swept past the man's position a second ago, almost slicing off his head.

"If you dare to talk nonsense, I'm really going to cut you."

The Valkyrie exuded a substantial murderous aura.

"Good! I won't say it! I give up! ┗(∧｀)┛”

The man immediately raised his hand and admitted defeat very heartily.

"Hmph."

Only then did the Valkyrie put away her sword, didn't look at the man, and walked outside.

“…… Where are you going? ”

The man put away the smile on his face and asked.

"It's none of your business."

Valkyrie threw out a sentence without looking back.

"Remember, he's mine."

"No one is allowed to touch him until I defeat him."

With that, the figure of the Valkyrie disappeared into the open-air garden.

Only the frivolous man remained, there his face gloomy and his fists clenched.
