The unpleasant gunpowder smoke filled half of the city, and the city wall was in a mess. They were so exhausted, they were sitting on the ground, not even knowing whether their companions were alive or dead, tired and exhausted. Not wanting to move. In fact, not many people died in the battle, even fewer than the opponent, but the number of people who died of freezing due to the rapid cooling of the sun was several times that of the battle.

The enemy’s offensive stopped, and the Eagle Corps soldiers defended for an afternoon. Before the sun went down, the enemy retreated. They won, but no one was happy.

The commander screamed hoarse. He is not a general, but a deputy. The general is dead and killed by a terrifying freak boy. Now he is a little envious of that was killed before the war began. General.

The Imperial Army has special weapons. They have the ability to burn through a large iron gate half a meter thick. Magic can do it, theoretically. After all, the most powerful flame magic on record can burn anything. .

However, the Calis Empire did not master such magic, but the facts were in front of them. They destroyed the city gate and defeated a line of defense in the soldiers’ hearts.

The gap in the gate was temporarily blocked, and the soldiers blocked everything that could be moved. The magician then frozen it into a rock-like ice block with water and some turbid substances.

Everyone was tired and very cold, the morale of the army was very low, and the silence of countless people made the atmosphere extremely heavy.

The wounded were brought back one by one, and the Imperial Army paid a lot of money. Fortunately, the pots in the camp were all right. They came back. Can drink hot soup.

“Slow down, be careful.”

At this moment, there is a special voice in the barracks. Her voice is not loud, but everyone around can hear it. To.

A woman who wears simple clothes but is exceptionally beautiful, anyone with a discerning eye can see her aristocratic temperament. She is Fula, the youngest daughter of Count Andzra, a pitiful person.

She and other logistics staff served meals and soup to the soldiers. Obviously, Fula’s popularity was better than the others. The cauldron in front of her was full of people.

“Fura Young Lady! I want another bowl.”

“I came first!”

“Don’t push me!”

The soldiers squeezed in scramblingly, even though the pots next door were very empty.

“Come slowly! Take your time! Don’t worry!”

The scene got out of control. The logistics staff felt particularly unpleasant. They did not deliberately compare with the daughter Eldest Miss, but the behavior of the soldiers made them feel very sad. gradually, they alienated Fula.

“Enough! You guys! What do you want! Line up for me, or I won’t have a bite to eat. Fula, you go to the kitchen to see what you can do, don’t move! Then squeeze you Throw it out.”

At this time, the Chief-In-Charge of logistics came forward. He took Fula’s big spoon, and the soldiers around showed disappointed expressions.

Among the crowd, a young man passed by with an empty bowl. He witnessed all this and also saw the silhouette of Fula leaving.

Lass frowned, showing an expression of anxiety.

He entered the tent, where there were piled mountain-like dirty dishes and a basin of cold water.

Washing dishes in winter can kill people, but Fula sits in front of the basin of water, washing the dishes silently, with her back facing herself, Lars can’t see her expression. But from the roots of her red ears and the faint sobs, she can tell that she is sad.

“Fura.”

Russ called her. The former was taken aback, wiped his face with his sleeve, and then turned his head back with a smile.

“Lass? Ah, haha, there are so many dirty dishes, I wonder if I can help wash it…”

She has a hard smile and a flushed nose.

“These dirty bowls should be washed at night when the hot water is heated, otherwise your hands may be frozen and cracked.”

“That way, I will say why no one, I’m so stupid haha.”

Fura shook her hand and wiped her apron. She acted like an authentic civilian, reminding Lars of her mother. She often washes dishes. Do this action when

Russ fell silent for a moment, he put down the plate in his hand, showing a guilty expression.

“Why? When you are not talking, it is a bit worrying.”

The other party suddenly asked.

After hearing this, Russ took a deep breath and said: “Did they bully you?”

“Ah?!”

Fula was taken aback At a glance, she seemed surprised. She crooked her brows, and then thought of something, and quickly stopped and shook her head, saying, “No, no! They are very good to me. Really, they gave me the quilt for my sleep at night.”

Deception.

Russ felt very uncomfortable.

“Then why did you cry.”

“…”

Fura was silent for a while, the smile slowly disappeared, but soon came back.

She smiled bitterly, and said: “You can see it, sorry, I’m too weak.”

“No, I…”

“Don’t worry about me, my elder sisters treated me too much when I was young, they were really good to me. The reason why I cried, not because of this, is because of this war, I hate war.”

She lowered her head and wiped her tears gently.

Russ was still thinking about what she meant, and the other party continued: “I thought I could face it, but today I know that I can’t pass this hurdle at all. People who can still meet in the morning , At night, they will never see. Lars, the war is really cruel, my parents, relatives, and the sons and husbands of countless people, they may not be able to come back once they go.”

It turned out that she was sad for this, Russ lowered his head in shame, he felt ashamed, because he had been thinking about how to kill the enemy and do meritorious services. However, his views have changed a bit now.

There is no doubt that Fula is not suitable for this place. She will continue to stay here, just like her frostbitten hands, and will definitely suffer serious injuries in the end.

Russ clenched his fists and couldn’t help saying: “Fura, you… would you like to be an ordinary person?”

Fura revealed after hearing this. With a confused expression, she replied: “Of course, I have always wanted to be a civilian, without being restricted by any tedious etiquette, and being able to dance freely in the fields, but…”

She sighed, lowered her head and said: “That’s just a dream. I can’t get rid of this noble status in my life. I know that countless people envy my status, but they don’t know the price behind this kind of life. If I were a man, I could inherit the family business. At least I can make the decision by myself, but I am not. I will marry a man my father chose. Even if he is ugly and old, even if he doesn’t treat me as a human being, I must accept it. Now, I’m afraid the situation will be worse. , Because I don’t even have a father anymore, no one cares about my life and death, everyone only cares about my identity, and the power and wealth behind me…”

Fura’s heartfelt words Let Russ feel sorry for him. He has a hero, every boy has. Which man doesn’t like the story of the hero saving the beauty?

At this moment, he made up his mind that even if he was punished, he would save her. This was not for the other party to devote one’s life to, but for the justice in his heart.

Russ lifts the head and said: “Fura, listen, I know there is a place…”
