At this time, in the northern kingdom of northland, a wisp of snow drifted through the air. It''s going to snow so soon. It''s only September. It''s sunny month. It''s already snowing.

    Looking at the snowflakes falling out of the window, Gladwell thought of dalena in the south. Many years have passed since then.

    I still remember the first time I saw dalena. At that time, she was bound in the pub. Fortunately, Gladwell arrived in time to save her. After the escape together, dalena didn''t enjoy a good life with grawell for a few days. She was displaced and sacrificed herself to save grawell.

    He became the queen of the Empire, but Theoden the great was burned alive by the sudden Black Dragon ildley on the night of his 60 year old summer celebration.

    Later, dalena became the emperor''s widow again. With her and Theoden''s child, Keith, she was alone in the imperial city.

    In fact, dalena and Theoden have another child, their first child. This child is a girl. The Empire claimed that the child died prematurely. In fact, she did not die. Now the kingdom of Northland is living well.

    The girl''s name is Isabella. The Imperial Emperor Theoden also knows through the intelligence network that the first child of him and dalena is not his, but the child of Baron sedak and dalena of the northern Haiya castle. As soon as the child was born, he was expelled to the north by the emperor, secretly imprisoned, and declared that she was dead.

    Theoden didn''t kill the child secretly, but sent someone to take care of and teach the girl. It''s very kind, but he also deprived the girl of her freedom, but how many people are really free? It''s good to live like this.

    Until the black dragon attacked kelandier, the north also began the war of independence under the leadership of Gladwell. Later, Lord holf wood of Gladwell found Princess Isabella in a place called Bauhinia manor in the giant bear town under golgaron, the current King City of Northland.

    They took Isabella back to the royal city of gorgaron and took her to grawell.

    Don''t say, Isabella, who is approaching adulthood, is really not much worse than dalena. She is as beautiful as her mother. However, due to Isabella''s life experience and her current background, Gladwell can only stay with her as an adopted daughter.

    Seeing the growing Isabella, Gladwell can always think of dalena at that time. Often think of this time, Gladwell''s heart will also have a deep remorse and guilt. Although Isabella is the son of the bastard of sedak, she is also the flesh and blood of dalena. The child is innocent. Gladwell takes care of the child like his own father. She wanted to make up for her love for her mother and her debt to this beautiful child.

    Sometimes I can''t even tell whether Granville loves the child or just because he loves her mother, and is that love really just pure paternal love?

    "Father, what are you looking at here?" Isabella came to grawell like a lovely cat, trying to scare his majestic father

    Isabella in a white dress is very cute and lively. There is only naive beauty on her face.

    Granville, who was deep in thought, was really surprised by such a sentence suddenly, but the city government for many years made him calm immediately. When he saw the girl in front of him as beautiful as dalena, even more beautiful than her mother, the girl in a dress came into his heart.

    "You naughty devil, why are you looking for me again," said Gladwell with a smile. At the moment, his expression can be called a kind father

    "Father, the swordsman you found for me the other day was defeated by me. It seems that his skill is just like this." Isabella stared at glawell with her big water eyes

    Gladwell also had a headache for this girl. She didn''t like embroidery, reading and dressing like other noble ladies, but she was interested in weapons and military combat skills.

    It''s true that I don''t like heavy makeup and armed.

    Although there was no way to take her, Gladwell still spoiled her. He found many teachers, swordsmen and officers to coach Isabella.

    No, the new swordsman was defeated by Isabella in less than two days. Gladwell really admired Isabella''s fighting level. Whether it''s speed, strength, agility, or reaction, grawell really felt what it was to be feared.

    Originally, at first, Gladwell thought that Isabella was just a little fight on a whim, but after he seriously communicated with the underage girl. In fact, he had to admire Isabella. Whether in terms of governance or military, Isabella was not inferior to the ministers, generals and lords around Gladwell.

    Even in some aspects, Isabella''s unique views are far better than those important officials of the kingdom. After all, these dignitaries of the kingdom are vested interests. In many ways, they only start from their own interests, so they will inevitably be short-sighted. Unlike Isabella, she can proceed from the interests of the Kingdom, has higher goals and ideas, and has a strong overall view and strategic vision.

    So, what''s the problem? Gladwell wants to communicate with Isabella from the heart, although she is only a minor girl, and other noble girls just play with dolls every day at this age.

    In addition to fighting, Isabella also likes reading. Therefore, grawell ordered people to collect a large number of books everywhere and built the Northland Kingdom library for Isabella.

    Sometimes, Gladwell often sighed to himself that if Isabella were her own flesh and blood. But in any case, Isabella is dalena''s child and her own adopted daughter. Now few people in the Kingdom know her true identity. Gladwell treats Isabella as her own daughter and takes good care of her teaching.

    And now the whole kingdom knows that Isabella is the adopted daughter of Gladwell and the official legal Princess of Northland.

    Fate is really an interesting thing. No one knows where the river of destiny flows and turns next second.

    All sentient beings are but the most insignificant dust in the big chess game of fate.

    What fate will await our great king of Northland and Isabella?
