Rebirth of the Viking King

Chapter 220 The princess who skipped class on 5.12

The temperature in Storm's End in winter was very low. Sophie wore a thick cotton jacket and wandered aimlessly with Katya in the city for an hour. Katya finally couldn't bear the boredom anymore. She was not worried that Sophie would be in any danger, because within two months, everyone in the city knew the lord's daughter.

Even in danger, the Wing Guards standing guard at various sentries can see her figure.

Sophie, who finally regained her freedom, began to let herself go. Skipping class and going out for a walk was the most precious memory for Haitong during his student days, especially when he had a few silver coins in his pocket.

Sophie first wandered to her favorite fruit shop, took out a few coins and asked the aunt at the fruit shop to squeeze a glass of frozen pear juice for herself. The frozen pears that have been frozen into ice cubes at low temperature are very moist after thawing, and the juice is squeezed out, making it very delicious sour and sweet.

When the fruit seller saw that this was a child from the lord's family, she made an exception and took out two apples that had been preserved in autumn from the cellar and stuffed them into her soft little hands.

Chewing the apple sweetly, Sophie left the fruit shop and entered the pawn shop next door.

Sophie Starrag is one of the strongest second-generation officials in Storm's End. The Vikings were not good at business, and most of the vendors doing business in the market at Storm's End were businessmen from other countries in the Western Continent.

These shrewd traders knew how to curry favor with the lord, especially after learning that Sophie was Loki's only daughter, they treated her like a special guest.

The pawnshop owner with a French accent personally brought her into the warehouse and introduced her to the "rare treasures" one by one on the counter. Nefertiti, who had been a female pharaoh for more than 20 years, naturally looked down upon these low-quality handicrafts that the Vikings had stolen from Slavia, and Sophie obviously had no interest in these dark "historical relics."

After walking around with the purpose of "finding a warm place to finish my apples", the two walked out of the pawn shop under the watch of the French boss and entered the next butcher shop.

When she came out of the butcher shop, Sophie's stomach was full after a feast of smoked pork and fried eggs. Although the food cooked in the kitchen of Storm's End is not bad, it is exciting to walk out to the streets and see the different cooking methods of other servants. Especially the butcher shop proprietress is also a senior foodie. Seeing such a beautiful and docile lord's daughter entering her shop ignorantly, she enthusiastically invited Sophie to her dining table and quickly prepared a plate of exquisite food like magic.

The ample food in her stomach temporarily dispelled the chill of late winter, and she happily returned to the market. Before she could walk into the next clothing store, Sophie, who was standing in the middle of the street, was suddenly gently touched by an elderly woman from behind. It hit him.

"Oh, this exquisitely dressed young lady, I'm so sorry. I'm old and my eyesight is blurry, so I'm useless!"

This is an old man with a kind face. Like most Viking wives, she spoke Viking with a strong Slavic accent. Sophie hurriedly returned the greeting, and at the same time waved her little hand in her gloves and said that she was fine. The old lady tapped her forehead with her finger, turned around and continued moving forward.

"Follow her." Nefertiti suddenly appeared and said in a deep voice.

"Little sister, don't you remember this person?"

"Yesterday at the Fire Sacrifice, this old lady only coughed twice, but I remembered her voice!"

"And, if I remember correctly, she is the person standing closest to the fire-passing priest among all the people in the fire-passing gang. Let me tell you, people's standing posture is very worth observing! Because almost everyone is unconsciously Next time, I will unconsciously stand with the people I know best!

By following her, I feel we will definitely gain something! "

It was past noon at this time, and after rising in the sky in Scandinavia, the sun has now gradually begun to set westward. Sophie followed the hunchbacked old woman from a distance and finally saw her entering a hotel called "The Broad Ax Hotel".

This is an inn near the gates of Storm's End. Compared with the few hotels in the city close to the market, this hotel mainly serves the poor people living in the "Xiacheng District". The building is located in a relatively remote corner of the city. The exterior walls of the building are not made of precious stone, but are made of relatively cheap wood.

Even Sophie knows that this kind of house made of light wood walls is very cold in winter.

The entrance of the hotel was not very tidy, and there was a strong smell of animals from the horses and yaks tied in the stables. As for the ground not far from the entrance, there were a lot of flattened yellow horse manure and snow that turned black and dirty after melting.

Ever since she entered Storm's End, Sophie, who was accustomed to living a life of fine clothing and fine food, had never entered such a terrifying place. She timidly stretched out her little head at the door and forgot for a long time. Nefertiti took over the body and directly pushed open the heavy cotton curtain at the door.

The smell of ale, bread mixed with tobacco and pungent sweat hit Sophie's face instantly like a wall of air. He saw a crowded hall. A bearded Viking man was stepping on the table and blowing a loud, beard-eyed vernacular.

"Hey, you guys from Hanshui Village have never seen that kind of scene, so you're at a big loss!"

"After 'Devil' Sartre opened the portal, we entered a city under the sea! My dear, I, 'Old Sheepskin,' have never seen such a spectacular sight in my whole life!"

"That quiet city is like a tomb, filled with dead black giants! Their houses are as huge as palaces. As for the entire city, it won't be a problem to bury three Storm's End castles in it!"

The Viking herdsman obviously drank too much. He gestured with his wine glass, and the other Vikings sitting next to him all looked at him suspiciously.

"It's not as amazing as you said."

"Yes, according to what you say, our Lord Loki is not a descendant of giants. He also has a city that is purely his own?"

"Bah!" Under the stimulation of alcohol, Lao Sheeppi's face turned red and his neck was thick. "If you don't believe me, you can just grab a Viking pirate in the river valley and ask. Which of the pirates who made the eastward journey this time can survive?" Received a favor from Duke Loki?”

"Without him, all of us would have starved to death in the Slavic wilderness! I used to say that this ghostly boy was the reincarnation of a god, but I never believed it."

"But after this disaster, I can't even believe it!"

The Viking herdsman who stood on the table and boasted loudly successfully attracted the attention of Sophie, who was wearing a floral cotton-padded jacket. Seizing this hard-earned opportunity, the little girl with two braids ducked out of everyone's sight and quickly followed the old woman's footsteps and slipped into the back kitchen.
