The Righteous Player(s)
Vol 2 Chapter 312: Dmitry and Maria (2 in 1)
"Players Super Justice (
Dmitry stood in front of the Grand Duchy and took a deep breath.
The pale white breath was scattered in the air...
He did not expect...
Within a week after he left Frostyu Province, his father had already turned into a dragon. It can even be said that as soon as his front foot left Frostyu Province, there was something wrong with Grand Duke Ivan.
He failed to see his father's last side as a human, nor was he able to participate in Annan's enthronement ceremony.
Perceptually, he wanted to turn back, drive out all the visiting ministers, and drag Annan to get drunk... But his reason told him that it didn't make any sense.
This will only cause more trouble.
He was once the eldest son of the prince of a country, and now he is the elder brother of the new grand duke.
As Dmitry, any abnormal behavior of him will lead to excessive interpretation by others. What he can do at present is to try to maintain the stability of all parties in Winter and maintain Annan's rule... After all, this is the path they have determined eight years ago.
Even Dmitry thought about it, maybe it wasn't that Ivan turned into a dragon as soon as he left...but because Ivan knew that he was about to turn into a dragon, he deliberately dismissed him.
——It has nothing to do with Dmitry's own wishes.
Most people don't know that Dmitry has lost his fertility.
If Dmitry and Annan were in Frost-Speaking Province at the time of the dragonization of Ivan, then as Dmitry who also has claims, is older and has been in contact with government affairs for a long time, even if he himself did not seize the authority of the Duke. The will of the nobles will spontaneously form the "Dmitry".
After Annan succeeds to the throne, he will encounter some trivial troubles on the political level. Although in terms of his personal ability, this trouble will not cause actual hindrance.
Although the core power of the Principality of Winter was held in the hands of the "ten fingers"... However, even this trivial trouble was still ruled out by Duke Ivan.
He is such a conservative and steady, solemn and steady ruler like the endless glacier in the north of winter. It is precisely because of this that he was able to maintain the stability of the Duchy of Winter in the winter.
"Come on, Dmitry."
A cold voice sounded behind him.
The little girl in white robe said: "Don't stand stupidly at the door, you are in my way."
That is his sister Maria.
You can tell from the tone, this is indeed dear...
"I'm just thinking about my father."
Dmitry whispered.
He subconsciously wanted to touch the cigar on his chest, but he was pushed slightly by Maria behind him.
So he coughed slightly, and withdrew his hands into his pants pockets without a trace.
He still wore the dark gray frosty animal skin coat, still the way he didn't wear well-the cuffs didn't go in, just drifting behind him, like a long cloak. The sleeves of his shirt were pulled up to the elbows, his hands were inserted into his trouser pockets, and his exposed forearms had quite obvious bulging veins.
If Ivan saw his dress, he would definitely teach him. He will be asked to put on his clothes well, and then roll up his sleeves.
"--Why, do you want to hit someone?" He admonished him like this.
If you smell cigarettes or alcohol on your body, you will be scolded again.
"Father is not dead."
Maria said coldly: "He is transformed into a dragon, guarding us and protecting Winter from another world."
"Ah, I know too."
Dmitry murmured, "It's like the old saying,'Winter people don't have funerals'."
"'When a person dies, he will bury the ground. Don't be sorrowful.' Father said."
Maria followed behind him and whispered.
——This is the unique tradition of Winter.
Because the natural environment in Winter is fierce and the resources are tight. The folks often do not have the habit of extravagantly holding complicated etiquette.
They did not have a feast to celebrate the birth, nor did they have a feast to honor the dead.
Newborns are often not sure whether they will survive, so they can't even get their own names. They usually get their official name only when they can eat on their own and run vigorously.
The same goes for the dead...The Winter people don't miss the dead too much.
This is not because of their lack of affection, but because people are dying too much, too quickly...and too eagerly.
If it is not possible to escape from the sadness for a long time, then the sadness will be one after another until the person is completely buried.
Generally speaking, someone who has died will find a sunny day and bury the body quietly under a certain tree. A little more particular, a monument will be erected, waiting for the next spring to send a bunch of flowers, indicating that everything is okay... at least there is still time and mood to send a bunch of flowers.
They must be strong-even in a declining town with a population of less than four digits and walking on empty streets, they must be able to live their lives peacefully and securely.
——Or, leave the Principality of Winter.
In the Duchy of Winter, the most serious etiquette is the wedding.
Because in this difficult living environment, it is easier for two people to live than one...and only for the wedding, the pastor of the old grandmother must be invited as a witness.
In addition, the Principality of Winter will not even celebrate the New Year. Because the New Year is January every year. In December, after the heavy snowfall of the previous month...In January of the coming year, after the month that belongs to the bone-buried mother-in-law, it is often the day with the most deaths in Winter.
Many elderly people cannot survive the cold winter and die from various diseases. For the Principality of Winter, the New Year is not a particularly celebrated day.
Compared with the New Year, the birthday of the contemporary archduke may be more memorable.
After Dmitry and Maria entered the house, they saw no one in the living room and walked directly to the second floor-that was the room that originally belonged to Grand Duke Ivan, but now it has become Annan's room.
The moment he entered the room, Dmitry was in a daze for a moment.
Because the decoration of the room has changed a little...The two paintings hanging on the headboard of the double bed are gone. But Ivan's portrait was hung at the end of the bed.
There are still no jewelry decorations in the room, but the paintings drawn by Zhi Ji are still hanging in place. There are still documents on the desk, in addition to several occult books.
In Dmitry’s eyes, his former immature and in need of care, is wearing a somewhat strangely shaped asymmetrical costume, revealing his left shoulder with a strange curse pattern, and his right hand holding the three symbolizing the authority of the Principality of Winter. The scepter of color, standing in front of the window, watching the people coming and going outside the Grand Duchy.
The moment Annan turned around when he heard the door opening.
The fifteen-year-old boy overlapped with his father Ivan Rindong.
"Annan... Your Majesty."
The moment Dmitry exited, he paused--because when he blurted out, he realized that he didn't know whether he should be called Annan, or His Majesty Annan, or Grand Duke Annan, or directly called His Majesty. Suitable.
It was Maria, without any hesitation.
"——Annan!"
She took off her hood and called without hesitation.
A simple and calm smile appeared on that delicate face.
Even if you can't feel positive emotions, the restlessness, worries, and burning thoughts in your heart are not false.
At the moment when these negative emotions disappear, the mind that has returned to the point of balance will still be born with the purest tranquility.
"Dmitry, and... Sister."
Annan nodded to Dmitry, then looked at Maria: "Well...long time no see."
His voice hesitated for a moment.
It was only a moment, but he believed that Maria might have heard it.
Because in fact...this is the first time Annan has seen Maria this week.
It is true—that is indeed a face very similar to Annan.
But compared with Annan whose smile was obviously warm, even the smiled Maria looked much more indifferent...just like a still immature queen, there was no feeling in the ice-blue pupils.
Compared to Annan, Maria's inhuman attributes are obviously deeper.
Annan has only slightly invisible dragon scales, and already has pale white hair.
And Maria's hair color was as cold as ice.
Her smooth waist-length hair is now shorter than Annan-it is silvery white with a slight bluish at the end. Unlike Annan's long hair that was cut off by a single blow, the place near the end is caused by natural production, which has different lengths, and therefore shows a sense of hierarchy.
There were silver-white dragon horns on both sides of her head, and obvious dragon scales appeared on the slender and slender neck, wrists, ankles, etc.
Her top is a fluffy sweater that gives people a sense of warmth, which always covers half of the thigh, and her lower body is flat short boots and thick black stockings that are higher than the knee. And the creamy white loose windbreaker with a hood on the outside will always cover the position of the calf. From the outside, you can't even see men and women... This is how Maria hides her identity.
This is quite a daily dress, and it will give people a very cordial and warm impression when they meet for the first time.
Annan only needs a glance to know why Maria dresses up like this.
"I know, you don't have my memory in your heart now..."
Maria tried her best to stay calm, as if she was worried that Annan would be frightened, and said in the lowest possible voice: "But it doesn't matter.
"We will meet and know each other again. If we really have very sincere feelings, it will be like a name engraved on the ice... Even if new ice covers it, the traces will still be wrapped in it."
Annan knew that whether it was Dmitry or Maria... there was no softness in their hearts.
Their hearts are made of ice. They can never feel the love, warmth, touch and joy of the world... But even so, the love they give to others is still incomparably real.
——Even if you can't feel love, you can give love to others.
Feeling Maria's sincere feelings, Annan took a deep breath.
He finally showed a gentle and natural smile: "Sister...
He called it that way.
"……first meet."
"Meeting for the first time, Annan..."
Maria stared at Annan and muttered softly, but she seemed to be reading it to herself.
"Okay, okay," Dmitry coughed, feeling a little uncomfortable with this scene, "Your Majesty Annan... Let's finish the business first, let's talk about the old."
He interrupted the silent atmosphere and directly asked: "I heard that milk pastry ran to you?"
"...Wait a minute, who is the soufflé?"
Annan was stunned when he heard the words, and then added: "Also, Dmitry. You don't have to call me like that... When we get along in private, just call me Annan as usual."
"I clearly remember what I mentioned to you!"
Hearing this, Dmitry breathed a sigh of relief.
He scratched his scalp, and then Maria hit the arm again for this apparently impolite behavior.
"It's the humanoid frost beast... I heard that at Viscount Dolgoruky in Wrangel Province, did you find her?"
"That kid is called soufflé?"
Annan was a little surprised, but still seemed stubborn about Russell's naming rights: "I remember she said that she didn't have a name... I already named her Russell."
"Milk cake is her original nickname."
Dmitry was relieved to hear that the humanoid frost beast was indeed here.
He immediately explained: "As you know, according to the custom of our Winter people, children are not named.
"She is a werewolf... She was attacked in the wild at the infant stage before she got her name, and she fell into a coma outside the small enchantment. We learned the name milk cake from her mother."
When Dmitry said this, he gave a cold snort and showed an expression of disgust: "But how did such a cub born only a year ago end up in the wild by herself... She didn't say anything.
"--Oh, but I don't know if she tells me."
There is only one answer.
That is the mother of "Milk Cake" who intends to abandon her ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The female werewolf with children or pregnant are often not welcomed by the village-this is the experience brought by countless blood lessons.
In order to allow their children to obtain more resources, they are completely possible to harm other people's children after maddening, just like a cuckoo squeezes other bird eggs out of the bird's nest. This belongs to the racial instinct of werewolves.
But on the other hand, if this frenzied instinct cannot be restrained...
Then you can "counter" this instinctive trigger point.
That is their children themselves.
Give birth to his own child secretly, find the opportunity to abandon it into the wild, and then enter a strange village. This is a new style of life skills for female werewolves.
"Only these beasts who don't understand emotions can commit this kind of sin against human relations."
Dmitry chuckled, and said faintly: "If you don't want to kill the children yourself, you just threw them directly into the wild in the snowstorm--what's the difference between killing them? This kind of meaningless compassion... "
"Mention beforehand, Dmitry."
When Annan saw that Dmitry was about to start thinking about the original sin of the werewolf again, he immediately interrupted him: "I know Russell has a special value. But I don't want you to drag her to breed...or something else. Good experiment.
"I have promised to take good care of this child."
"Hey, Annan. Who do you think of me?"
Dmitry said without feeling ups and downs: "You don't need to say something, and I won't do it. She has no special value to the Winter family. I rushed around, looking for her-just In order to prevent her from being caught by others, she was used to do this kind of thing.
"I am here to protect the Principality of Winter, secondly to protect you, and then to protect other people... and protect herself by the way."
