As a model for Madam Sells' tailor shop, Elena had been having a hard time recently.
After hearing the news that the army of Chaos was coming, the model's first reaction was to run! The further, the better!
So Elena gritted her teeth and sold the house she owned in Nur. The house, which was originally estimated to be worth at least two thousand gold marks, was only sold for eight hundred gold marks because she was in a hurry to sell it. Then Elena was ready to pack up and run away. She initially decided to retreat to Brunswick, the capital of the Empire.
However, when it was time to leave, the model began to hesitate. Nur was the city where she grew up. Her job was here, her family was here. The furthest place she had ever been to in her life was the temple of the God of Nature, Tal, on the outskirts of Nur.
Outside the city was a world of chaos. Elena stood at the open city gate and Nur dock several times, but in the end, she did not have the courage to take that step. She cursed the shamelessness and viciousness of Chaos while giving up the ticket to leave the city and selling it to someone else.
Shi and the distance would be left for later. Right now, the most important thing was to protect what was in front of her.
After waiting for a few days, good news came! The champion of the Chosen One, Laing Macado of the Lake Fairy, agreed to help. The whole city was in an uproar. The citizens of Nur had confidence in this war. After hearing the news, Elena was overjoyed. The beautiful model immediately decided to stay in Nur. She wanted to buy her house back with eight hundred gold marks.
This time, the model was dumbfounded.
Her house was indeed listed for sale, but the price had risen from eight hundred gold marks to one thousand nine hundred gold marks!
"Profiteer! Scum! Shameless! "Elena cursed angrily." Nur will be ruined by these people sooner or later! "
It was useless. She had sold the house herself, and she had also found the Church as an intermediary. If she went to the Church or the Nuer Court now, not only would she be unable to stand on her feet legally, she would not even be able to get any sympathy from a moral point of view.
Who told you to run away?
However, Elena was also very innocent. Her only asset (the house) was mysteriously lost in the chaos, and she didn't do anything at all!
It could only be said that Elena's little asset could not withstand any turmoil and basically did not have the ability to resist risks.
Fortunately, the owner of Madam Sells' tailor shop was not bad. Elena also had some savings. Now that she was homeless, she temporarily rented a loft and barely kept a place to live.
The drastic change in her living environment made Elena even more determined.
She wanted to marry a good man to change her fate.
Elena silently set a series of conditions for her future husband.
First of all, the northerners of the Empire, especially the Nords, Austers, and Kisrif, were all out of the question. Men from poor places like Steyr in the Eastern Province were also out of the question. If the people of Miden had the title of Baron or above, they could consider. Considering the recent "Holy Grail fever" caused by Sir Laing's arrival in Nur, if the Brittany was a Holy Grail Knight, they could also consider.
Secondly, a house with an area of no less than 150 square meters and a fixed income. It would be best if the annual income could be more than 500 gold marks. After all, Elena was a model herself, and with her share, she could earn dozens of gold marks a year. She was not here to help the poor.
Finally, height, appearance, temperament, personality, and ambition, of course, all of these had to be present. It would be best if he was gentle and considerate. She would be in charge of the finances and management of the house.
Just like Madam Suria, as everyone knew, Duke Laing handed over all the big and small matters of the house to Madam Suria to manage! Wasn't this the most powerful evidence?
Therefore, when Kalad entered the clothing store, Miss Elena's eyes were instantly attracted by Kalad's figure!
This is a Knight of the Holy Grail!
Maybe he's the one I'm waiting for?
"Welcome. Are you here to order a dress?" Elena hurried over to greet him, her attitude very enthusiastic.
"Ah, yes, I'm here to order a dress." Kalad was a little uncomfortable. Compared to Brittany, the atmosphere in Nur was particularly open. Elena was wearing a strapless dress with a high slit and a pair of flesh-colored silk stockings on her beautiful legs. To be fair, Elena was still very beautiful. Her appearance was hot and wild, her skin was white and beautiful, and her legs were long. Her initiative to please him made Kalad feel uncomfortable.
"What style do you want?" With an idea in mind, Elena was particularly excited and enthusiastic. She approached Kalad and said, "We have many styles here."
"Just the more normal and conservative kind!" Under Elena's lead, Kalad looked at several layouts and chose the most classic and most conservative style.
"Okay, please let me measure your size. Can you take off your coat, Your Excellency?" Elena was full of smiles.
"Yes." Kalad untied the collar of his military uniform. Under the coat was a high-collared shirt.
Elena was a little disgusted at first glance.
She had heard from the noble ladies and court ladies that those who liked to wear high-collared shirts were all mommy's boys!
If she were to marry them, would she be suppressed and controlled by her mother-in-law?
After measuring Kalad's size, Elena suppressed her displeasure a little. Taking advantage of this opportunity, she chatted with Kalad for a while. Kalad's speech was not very elegant, but it was very decent and polite. Elena's mood improved a little when she saw this. She then praised, "Your beard and clothes match very beautifully. You must have taken care of it specially, right?"
"Oh! Of course. As the Knight of the Holy Grail of the Lady, I represent the Lady's face. Of course, I have to take care of myself, "Kalad said lightly.
Is it because of the Lady of the Lake that he pays attention to his image? It's a little sissy and annoying! Elena's brows furrowed.
Soon, the measurement was done, and Kalad put on his clothes again. This Knight of the Holy Grail of the Sanctuary was domineering. His streamlined body had a masculine beauty that only belonged to men. Throughout the years, he was bathed in blood on the battlefield and killed strong enemies. Naturally, Kalad had his own mighty and domineering aura.
"With such a good figure, it's easy to attract a large group of women!" Elena's heart skipped a beat. She thought that such a man was the easiest to flirt and cheat! This was not good. She only wanted a man who loved her wholeheartedly. She needed a sense of security.
After filling in the measurements and placing the order, Kalad paid the deposit and signed his name.
Due to years of war, holding a lance and a knight's sword, and using the Brittany writing method, Kalad's handwriting was not good.
Elena was completely desperate. The female model thought that handwriting was the window to the soul. Since this Knight of the Holy Grail's signature was not good, did it mean that he was actually a twisted man?!
Oh my god! Why is the Knight of the Holy Grail I met such a mommy's boy, sissy, annoying, flirtatious, and twisted man?!
When sending Kalad out, Elena was so sad that she was about to cry.
Where did all the good men go?!
Why can't I meet a good man?!
… I'm the cut-off line for a good man …
Old World, September, Black Mountain Range, Winter Tooth Pass.
The Chaos army finally crossed the Black Mountain Range. Tarim Khan led the entire army through the ancient and abandoned Winter Tooth Pass under the guidance of the Chaos Dwarves.
However, in the process of forcing their way through the Winter Tooth Pass, the Army of Chaos was forced to engage in several battles with the Dark Creatures that lived there. First, there was a huge tribe of Dark Goblins. A Dark Goblin Shaman led 100,000 Dark Goblins in a huge battle with Khan Tamu. The Army of Chaos was forced to pay a huge price to fight the Dark Goblins. In the intense battle, the Dark Goblins threw in their Behemoth Army. Three Araknari Spiders rushed into the Army of Chaos like giant pumpkins that were more than ten meters tall, almost crushing the entire Army of Chaos.
But in the end, Tarim Khan stood out. He rode on the Toad Dragon, brandishing his giant axe up and down as he joined the battle. He slaughtered his way through the Goblin tsunami and the Araknari spiders to reach the leader of the Midnight Goblin Shaman. The skinny Midnight Goblin Shaman sat on the giant spider and released waves of small WAAAGH! Magic tried to stop Tarim Khan's attack, but Tarim Khan relied on the blessing of Nurgle to resist the damage of the green magic. He chopped off one of the spider's legs with his giant axe on the spot and rushed to the Midnight Goblin Shaman. If it weren't for the Midnight Goblin Shaman, Tarim Khan would have chopped him into pieces on the spot.
Relying on Tarim Khan's tenacity and unparalleled strength, the Chaos army finally turned defeat into victory. At this moment, no enemy could stop Tarim Khan and his army from crossing the Winterfang Pass.
However, the army soon encountered a new problem. Due to years of disrepair, many parts of the mine passage were no longer passable. There were broken suspended passages and blocked boulders everywhere in the pass. It was impossible to accommodate the army and the war machines of the Chaos Dwarves. They had to spend a lot of time dredging and building a new path.
In the beginning, Khan Tamu had hoped that the Chaos Dwarves would be able to help, but the Ashen Prophet had flatly refused. The leader of the Dao 'e Tribe, Shai, had even told him not to even think about it because that was something that only slaves would do.
In the end, the champion of Nurgle could only rely on the blessings of his compassionate father, Nurgle, to forcefully order his tribal army and the Plague Ogres to use the goblin corpses and boulders that were scattered all over the battlefield to forcefully open up a new path.
At this moment, the entire Chaos army was filled with complaints. Tarim Khan could no longer rely on the glory and rewards promised by the Evil Gods of Chaos. He directly used threats and intimidation to force the warriors of Kurgan to agree to do this kind of construction work. The army continued to advance with difficulty.
When the 9th month came, Tarim Khan and his army finally arrived at the southern part of Weissen Territory, the former Saul Territory (which had now been merged into Weissen Territory)!
The southern part of Weissen Territory instantly turned into hell! The army of the Empire that was still waiting for news from the Blackfire Pass was caught off guard. In just a week, five towns and two castles were turned into ruins in front of the Chaos army. Thousands of Empire soldiers lost their lives!
Urgent military reports were sent to Nur one after another!
The enemy had somehow crossed the Black Mountain Range and arrived at the southern part of Weissen Territory!
Tarim Khan and his Chaos army had arrived!
