The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

: Avarosa’s Reincarnation

Sejuani looked at Ashe silently. This slender girl resolutely stood on the opposite side of her, just to protect the group of Ibratos she didn’t know at all.

Sejuani looked at the frost on the broad blade, which was caused by Ashe’s True Ice Arrow. Even if she didn’t touch it directly, Sejuani could still feel the horror of these ice crystals. If Ashe targets 【resource; source group】: 9? 8; 0; 2? . 0′. 5,,8″5.;6 is not the weapons of Sejuani and Winter’s Claw warriors, but the body…

“Stupid!” Sejuani hoisted the broad blade on her shoulders and roared, “Urkas! Take all your compatriots! Let’s go!”

Ashe put down the longbow: “Thank you…”

“I don’t need your thanks!” Sejuani turned her back and strode away, “Take this group of people and get lost, and never come back again! Next time we meet, I will regard you as a traitor, my enemy !”

Ashe stretched out her hand to Sejuani sadly, but Sejuani had already gone far away, and she couldn’t reach it.

“I will not treat you as an enemy!” Ashe shouted towards Sejuani’s back, “You will always be my sister!”

Sejuani didn’t look back, she led the Winter’s Claw warriors away, and disappeared into the twilight snow of the night.

Ashe let out a long sigh of relief, and fell powerlessly to the ground. At the same time, she felt that something in her chest was hollowed out, leaving only confusion and helplessness.

“Lothar…” Ashe suddenly remembered the boy she loved so much, he was still on the Juvask boar in Winter’s Claw.

“Are you looking for me?” A familiar voice came, and Lothar appeared next to Ashe at some point, with a comforting smile on his face.

Ashe was startled, and whispered, “You saw it all?”

“Yes.” Lothar knelt down and gently hugged Ashe’s head into his arms.

“Since when did you see it?”

“Actually, I’ve been following you all along. You know, I’m a hunter who is very good at hiding.”

“Do you think I’m stupid?”

“Are you referring to breaking with the sisters in robes you just made a pact with, or are you insisting on leading a team of the Fudo tribe that suffered heavy casualties across the ice sea in winter?”

Ashe smiled wryly: “It sounds like I’m really stupid.”

“That’s what I like about you.” Lothar straightened out a strand of Ashe’s silver thread, and looked back at the group of Ibratos who were still immersed in fear, sadness and confusion, “Is there anything for us to tell them? Let’s talk about it after leaving here, the fire is hard to put out, and the village is hopeless.”

…

After the massacre, there were only a few dozen people left in the Ibrato tribe, and nearly half of them were old people and children.

When the sky was just turning pale, Lothar and Ashe led them to the coast next to the village, away from the village that was engulfed by the fire, but the misty clouds still hung over these innocent villagers.

“What should I do?” Ashe asked Lothar in a low voice, “Although I said I would take them away, to be honest, I don’t know what to do.”

“Think about your mother.” Lothar said, “Imagine that they are your people, your children. In order to protect your children, what should you do?”

“Let them fear me, and then trust me.” Ashe took a deep breath, and that stalwart figure appeared in her mind.

She looked at the longbow in her hand. She had held the Ice Bow for too long, and her palms had already started to ooze blood.

But now is not the time to care about the pain. She raised her longbow high and shouted: “Ibrato! I am Ashe! Grena’s daughter! I am the longbow!”

The eyes of the villagers were all focused on Ashe, and the True Ice Longbow shone dazzlingly under the rising sun.

“Ai Xi, the powerful ice blood, you saved us, we all saw it.” An older Ibrato took the lead in kneeling in front of Ai Xi, and others followed suit. Only Ashe is the straw.

“I swear, I will protect you.” Ashe helped the old man up. “Whether you are an Iceborn or a Furnace, I will treat you equally. None of you will become slaves.”

There was a commotion in the crowd, apparently not understanding Ashe’s words.

Kindness is a very rare act in the Freljord, especially for aliens who are not connected by blood.

“I am an Avarosa.” Ashe exclaimed, “I will also treat you as Avarosans and kiss my dearest compatriots!”

The Ibratos were clearly confused. They hadn’t recovered from the shadow of being slaughtered.

Lothar stood up at this time. He took a step forward and stood by Ashe’s side: “Compatriots! Listen up! The female warrior in front of you is holding Ava, one of the three sisters. The holy bow of Rosa himself!”

There was a burst of exclamation from the crowd, and the way they looked at Ashe suddenly changed.

“Only she can use this holy bow, and you have seen its power.” Lothar continued loudly, “Ashe of Avarosa is the reincarnation of Avarosa himself!”

Lothar’s words were like a huge boulder smashing into the hearts of the Ibrato people. They all paid homage to Ashe, and the tragedy of the night before was temporarily forgotten.

Ashe secretlyHolding Lothar’s hand, Lothar could feel her slender palm trembling uncontrollably.

“Why did you tell such a lie?” Ashe whispered in Lothar’s ear in a panic, “I’m not Avarosa’s reincarnation at all?”

Lothar looked at her seriously: “Why do you think you are not?”

Ashe was stunned.

…

The Ibrato tribe has nothing left, except for a Sneja that is docked on the coast, and the Ibrato people will use it to go fishing during the fishing season.

Lothar arranged for everyone to board the boat. Although there were not many strong men left, they could barely fill all the oarsmen.

At noon, Sneja left the coast and started heading south.

After arranging everything, Lothar walked towards Ashe, who was standing alone at the bow. The sea breeze blew her silver hair and cloak, and the noon sun shone on her snow-like skin, making it faintly dazzling.

“You are so beautiful.” Lothar hugged Ashe.

“You know I don’t want to hear this now.” Ashe said softly, “Why do you say that I am the reincarnation of Avarosa?”

“We will head south, and we can use this name to take in some tribes along the coast.” Lothar replied, “Most of the big tribes will ignore us, but those tribes that only have furnace households believe that they will definitely not refuse Avarosa’s reincarnation. invitation.”

“What I’m asking is, why do you say that I’m the reincarnation of Avarosa?” Ashe broke away from Lothar’s arms and faced him directly, “Do you know that once a lie is told, it cannot be taken back?”

Lothar sighed: “Haven’t you realized yourself? Ashe.”

“Conscious” Ashe was taken aback.

“What you have is the throne of Avarosa that Glenna has pursued all her life.” Lothar stared at Ashe’s rippling eyes, “Marukolo will kill everyone to prevent her from getting it.” This bow, and you got it. This bow has been on that mountain for tens of thousands of years, but you picked it up, and the power of the ice even changed your hair, which means that this bow Bow admits you. Ordinary ice bloodlines learn to use True Ice weapons, which one is not step by step, and slowly adapt to the backlash of True Ice. But just as you pick it up, you can defeat a powerful Dracrond.”

Ai Xi was silent, looking at Lothar a little at a loss.

Losa sighed, and continued: “You are too self-deprecating. If there is really Avarosa’s reincarnation in this world, who else do you think is more competent besides you?”

Most of the Freltable coastal tribes are equipped with a single-masted sailboat called “Sneja”. This kind of boat is very light and suitable for fishing in the offshore, but it is difficult to support long-distance sailing.
