Chapter 130: Freya's Surprise
85_85536 Freya von Hereford, a twenty-seven-year-old knightess, looked surprised.
In front of her subordinates, Ping Suri has always shown a stern, expressionless posture in order to maintain her majesty. Even in the face of a powerful enemy, no matter how bad the situation, she can remain unmoved.
No one could have imagined that she would suddenly lose her temper at this time.
The guards around her, the other knights of the Order, and the stewards of the caravan were all amazed. I wanted to ask, but I didn't dare. I want to pretend I can't see it. It's just that this incident is so legendary that they are reluctant to take their eyes off.
So they just watched as Freya continued to maintain a surprised expression, and then jumped off their horses. Then he hurried towards the gate of the castle.
Then, at the gate of the castle, the welcoming procession also greeted Freya. They didn't seem to expect Freya to do such a thing. So there was a bit of noise for a while.
"Quiet. "The man at the front of the line commanded - within the Duchy of Mystia, though not of prestige abroad. Whether it was a civil servant or a military officer, a clergyman or a heretic, a freeman or a serf, they were all in awe of this man.
After he gave the order, the people shut their mouths and did not dare to speak again.
So he dismounted, and walked on foot, like Freya. The sun shone behind him, creating shadows that prevented Freya from looking closely at his face.
But that qiē was the same as in her memory, in her dream. Equal, identical. The armor, the healthy breath of youth and sunshine, black hair and black eyes.
"Brother......" Freya could hardly hold back, wanting to throw herself into his arms and cry well. vent all the grievances and unwillingness over the years. But then she realizes that something is wrong—when she gets close enough, Freya realizes that it is not her brother Otto.
Even though the two are similar, really similar. Wearing the armor used by Duke Otto when he was young. William, whose appearance and temperament are almost exactly the same as those of the duke when he was young, almost gives Freya the illusion of time travel. But she also knew that it was never going to happen.
After calming down, Freya finally reluctantly admitted. It was not Duke Otto who appeared in front of her now. In the same way, after thinking about it for a while, she also understood who the person standing in front of her was.
William, of course.
After thinking about it, Freya was a little shy, embarrassed, and even a little annoyed and angry. However, looking at this face that looked like her brother when he was young, she couldn't be angry. And soon, the previous excitement was replaced by another inexplicable throbbing.
She couldn't help but continue walking towards William, muttering, "Like, really like." "That's the case. When William was inexplicable, she had already walked to William's side. Then, he reached out and stroked William's face.
Although William knew that the other party was his elder. But first, Freya was not too old. Second, the other party is a mentor-level master. The body is very well maintained. So it looks like a young girl in her early twenties.
At the same time, because he didn't have much contact with Freya, for a while, William couldn't afford to feel that the other party was his elder.
So William felt a little embarrassed. I don't know if I should stop the other person or if I shouldn't stop it.
And his embarrassment was quickly captured by Freya. A female knight who is close to thirty years old has a lot of experience in human affairs. So the embarrassment was quickly captured on William's face.
Then, Freya smiled knowingly. Smiling, he changed the movement of his hand slightly, from an enchantment to a gentle pinch. It's like the kind of kind gesture of the elders to the juniors:
"I really didn't expect that I didn't see it in a blink of an eye, but I had grown so big. Children are amazing creatures. She smiled and said to William. It's like an ordinary elder who can be seen everywhere without any problems.
Although the ending is slightly abrupt, there is also a great sense of disobedience. But after seeing this scene, the onlookers finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yes, it doesn't get any better ending than this. Quickly clear things out before they get big and don't even show signs of it. There was no impact at all. This relieved everyone.
And just like that, the welcoming ceremony continued. William accompanied Freya and walked into Circassburg. At the same time, the knights of the guard, as well as the members of the caravan, and a large number of Gothic refugees were also properly settled. After that, it's time for dinner.
......
After this, William and Freya and Charlumi began to chat in the small room and recreation room of the castle.
Although William was anxious, he wanted to talk to Freya formally about his plans. But he felt that he could not appear to be in such a hurry. At the very least, let my aunt have a good rest for a day. We'll have to come back to that tomorrow.
So William didn't mention it, but cooperated with Freya's words and talked about the issues she liked. For example, my most recent table xiàn. and the results of cultivating swordsmanship and fighting qi in recent times. In addition to this there were reforms in the military, several wars, and so on.
Freya, on the other hand, tells the story of what happened after she joined the Gothic Order. Fight against a variety of enemies in the name of the Lord of Radiance within the chaotic Gothic Empire. Sometimes it's invaders from other human realms, sometimes it's a stupid aristocrat who covets the territory and wealth of the Knights, and sometimes it's a cult power that worships an evil god. Sometimes it's an orc frenzy of green-skinned orcs.
Freya's eloquence is very good. At the same time, what she experienced was indeed very interesting. So, after a little bit of artistic processing, there are very beautiful and fascinating stories.
In addition to these legendary "stories", there is also a lot of meaningful and useful information and intelligence that Freya said. Including various forces within the empire, famous nobles and generals. There are also the various tactics used by the Empire, its enemies, and classic examples.
William felt that these things benefited him a lot. At the same time, he secretly sighed that if he had met Freya earlier, it would have been better for his growth.
"But if I hadn't come up with this great idea this time, my aunt wouldn't have told me these things. William thought to himself.
Yes, William had a good idea in his house after talking to Charlumie, who had several paintings depicting his father, Duke Otto, in his youth. You can tell from above that he is dressed. And before that, the armor used by Duke Otto in his youth was still there.
William's idea was to modify his appearance slightly to make his image more similar to that of his father, Duke Otto. In order to improve his aunt Freya's favorability towards himself.
As a result, the idea did work. Just side effects...... It doesn't seem to be small.
Although it was only for a moment, from Freya's eyes, William did see something that should not have appeared.
To make matters worse, he wasn't the only one who saw them. Following him, Xia Lumi, who was also in the welcome procession, also saw some clues.
Originally, she had a very good relationship with Freya. But after this meeting, Freya just said a few casual hellos, and then devoted all her energy to William. The interest and interest in talking to William was much higher than the interest and interest in communicating with himself.
If it was just that, Charlumi wouldn't have cared too much. She was also worried about the way Freya looked at William.
That look made her very uncomfortable. Although she hadn't looked in the mirror much, she believed that when she liked William so much, she should have looked at William's expression like that.
This made her feel unhappy: "Could it be that Aunt Freya is also in love with William?" As soon as she thought of this, her eyes changed when she looked at Freya, and became hostile. It's like a pet dog that cares for food.
But then, she noticed that Freya's eyes had changed again, and in an instant she had returned to normal. Looking at William, in addition to the normal happiness and happiness, there is only the ardent care and love that the elders should have. The admirer-like gaze from before was completely gone.
Seeing this, Xia Lumi was stunned, and then rubbed her eyes again. Find out that you are not mistaken.
This made her think, "Was I dazzled before?"
As if sensing Charlumi's gaze, Freya turned her head to look at her, and then smiled kindly, like a junior. After that, he began to take Charunmi's hand and ask long and short questions as he did with William before. The attitude is no different from the previous few times the two met.
And in addition to these basic greetings, greetings and inquiries, Freya also asked Shalumi about William. Some of the questions are ambiguous, vaguely hinting at asking Charlumie and William what they have developed. It made Charlumi feel embarrassed.
"Maybe I'm really wrong?" said Shalumi. Hold this down for the time being.
That's it. The welcoming ceremony ended with great success. On the same day, Freya stayed in Circassburg
