Northern Lights

It was for fear of affecting Heikki that he refused to speak out. There must be other secrets that would embarrass him, the king. Forget it, let him go this time.

After returning to Lapland, Heikki became silent a lot. Kimi wanted to make his brother happy, but Sebastian advised him to give the prince who had just lost his love some time. The pain of love cannot be relieved in a few words, he needs time Slowly heal the wound and fade the scar.

Lapland has gradually stabilized after a period of breath adjustment. Kimi and Sebastian are sweet and sometimes noisy, and it seems to them that life is so boring and boring.

One night two months later, Kimi's eyeliner planted in Ivalo rushed to the Lapland palace with serious injuries, and told the king a major crisis before he died.

The Helsinki people in the south successfully attacked, and the king and queen were held hostage by the leaders of the Helsinki people. Those ministers, nobles and knights who were willing to bow their heads to the Helsinki people had a chance of survival. At this time, the Ivalo Kingdom has been closed to block news.

Ivalo is a country adjacent to the south of Lapland. If the Helsinki people occupy Ivalo, there is no guarantee that they will not continue to attack Lapland northward. Kimi called the ministers overnight to hold an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.

On this continent, the south and the north have always lived in peace. Why would someone break this peace, because they don't know what the other party's purpose is. Kimi and the ministers unanimously decided to enter a state of national alert. It was too close and they had to guard.

"Do you think Lapland will be able to resist if the Helsinkis come over?" Sebastian grabbed a handful of herbs and put them in the grinding jar, he had been uneasy since midnight last night.

"It's hard to say." Bernie has participated in dozens of wars in Lapland, big and small. Every time before, he firmly believed that Lapland would survive those storms safely, but this time he hesitated.

"Helsinki is so far from Ivalo, if their aim is the whole north, why don't they start with the country closest to them?" Sebastian's question was also a question in Kimi's emergency meeting in the morning. Think about something.

"Maybe their fundamental goal is Lapland." Bernie, who has lived for nearly a century, always has some intuition in some aspects.

According to what he said, Sebastian also felt that the possibility of targeting Lapland was very high. The relationship between Ivalo and Lapland has always been close to each other, and the reason why they did not choose Oulu, which is further south, may be because Oulu is Lapland. Lapland's friendly country, but he couldn't figure out why a distant country had a festival with Lapland alone.

Just when he was about to discuss this issue with Bernie, Huovinen knocked on the door and came in, "Are you free now? Come with me to find Hulkenberg, he is missing."

"What?" Sebastian dropped the medicine jar in his hand and ran towards him, "What happened?"

"It's too late, let's go, I'll talk to you on the way." Huovinen pulled him out without any explanation, and just nodded to Bernie as a greeting.

Bernie looked at the place where they left. He always felt that after his death, Huovinen would be the best candidate for the imperial physician in terms of medical skills and ability, but he just discovered that this person was never willing to follow him. I have more in-depth contact, and even Xinde, who wanted to talk to him about medicine, was rejected by him for various reasons. Why is this?He had to get to know this person before he could trust him with such an important task.

It turned out that Hulkenberg didn't come back after he went out this morning. It's been a long time. Sebastian was a little worried, "Did you say he met a hunter when he transformed?"

"He may have gone back to the place where he used to live." Huovinen changed his anxious expression just now, and said leisurely while sitting on the horseback.

"Then let's go and have a look."

"Not in a hurry."

"Then you just..." Sebastian didn't understand that he was on fire for a while, and then he was not in a hurry.

Huovinen smiled, "I'm afraid of being entangled by Bernie." Every time the old man saw him, he acted as if he wanted to pass on the mantle to him, which was really stressful.

"He wants you to be the court physician in Lapland." Of course Sebastian understood what the old man was up to, but it was nothing. He was already 83 years old, and someone had to take over the position.

"That's impossible." With Huovinen's shrewdness, how could he not know what that meant, but this kind of job that was paid by death and responsible for the health of all Lappish nobles and even civilians was really not suitable for him.

He is just a common man who only wants to live a rich and dreamy life. The word responsible is not in his life dictionary at all, and maybe he will get tired of Lapland after two or three years. It never even occurred to me to stop.

"Why?" Sebastian avenged Bernie's grievances. He regarded his career as his life, but it might be nothing in the eyes of others, so he rejected it without even thinking about it.

Huovinen pointed to his face, "Do you think I look like a court physician?"

Sebastian laughed, he's right, he's not the type to take responsibility, if some noble called him to see a doctor in the morning, he'd probably give him a slap in the face for disturbing his sleep, he just A prodigal son, a routine career is not for him.

"Don't you think Ivalo's fall is a bit strange?" The disappearance of the little snow leopard didn't bother Huovinen at all, and he had something to say to Sebastian.

Sebastian nodded, "I was discussing this with Bernie before, maybe the Helsinki people's fundamental purpose is Lapland."

"So who on earth has such a big hatred with Lapland?" Huovinen wanted to guide him to a certain point.

Unexpectedly, Sebastian shook his head blankly, "Maybe Hakkinen offended people in the south before."

"I don't rule out the possibility." Huovinen didn't deny it, but he was thinking in a different direction from his own. "They have such a large army coming from the south. Didn't there be any news on the way?"

"You mean someone used magic?" Sebastian became more convinced of his thoughts, "It must be the magician who was persecuted by Hakkinen back then and fled to the south."

"You forgot that not long ago there was a magician who wanted to occupy Lapland." Huovinen couldn't forget the witch who had fought against him but had never seen her true face.

WitchEvelyn

"Look, Hulkenberg is in the tree." Sebastian didn't seem to hear what he said, and his attention was attracted by the two animals on the tree not far away.

Hulkenberg really returned to his thatched hut halfway up the mountain. When they arrived, he was in the shape of a snow leopard talking to a skylark in the tree. Yes, Sebastian rubbed his eyes and found that it was listening to the skylark's chirp. say something.

Huovinen also saw this strange scene along the direction of his finger. After the snow leopard and the skylark talked, Hulkenberg told them that the skylark was a friend he knew two years ago, and it was telling him about the disaster in Ivalo .

According to Little Skylark, it was the new king of Salo who attacked Ivalo. He just married a witch, and their army used magic to hide their whereabouts along the way.

Sure enough, it has something to do with magic, Huovinen guessed right, "Has it heard the name of that witch?"

This question made Sebastian suddenly nervous, he was afraid to hear that the name was really Meester, he didn't want to be caught between his relatives and his lover, and more importantly, he didn't want to be an enemy of Meester.

"It seems to be called Leighton or something," Hulkenberg said after thinking for a while. It was not easy for a snow leopard to understand bird language, so he asked him to memorize the name.

Hearing that it wasn't Meester, Sebastian's heart hanging in the air finally let go, and he looked at Huovinen confidently, "I told you that it must be the people Hakkinen offended back then."

It turned out it wasn't her, Huovinen couldn't restrain his disappointment, "Well, it seems that Lapland's opponent this time is a witch again."

Sebastian shrugged, "We have to go back and tell Kimi the news."

Hulkenberg got dressed and came out of the room. Huovinen patted him on the shoulder, "You did a good job this time. I'll take you to the king to receive the award later."

Hulkenberg shook his head when he heard this, "I don't want to see the king, he is very fierce."

Look at his reaction like this or
