Chapter 546: Chapter 546, beginning
The capital of the Frost Kingdom.
Shier returned to the capital of the Frost Kingdom. He sat on the throne and looked down at the group of ministers.
The previous king of the Frost Kingdom had many children. There were twelve princes alone.
Therefore, after shier ascended to the throne, his elder brother and younger brother had joined forces in the capital and tried to resist Shier’s rule.
Unfortunately, shier used bloody methods to directly suppress it. In addition to the prestige he had accumulated in the frost country, Shier firmly sat on the throne of the frost country.
Many ministers who knew the situation praised Shier as a hero who had saved the country.
“Is this all the recent changes in the capital?”
Shier glanced at the ministers below. They had already dutifully reported everything that had happened in the capital of the frost country recently.
“The sages from Nolan have sent an invitation letter. They hope that you can send someone who can represent our country to attend a ‘Ceremony’in Nolan.”
After hearing Nolan’s words, the cold expression on Shier’s face softened slightly.
“I’ll consider it.”
After shier continued to listen to the suggestions of the other ministers and gave them some orders, he directly ended the meeting.
The king of the Frost Kingdom lived in the center of the capital. This magnificent castle had experienced thousands of years of wind and frost. Every time a new king took office, this place would almost always undergo a new renovation.
Shier did not have any requirements in this regard. Even his own room was the room he had stayed in when he was a prince.

A middle-aged woman in a maid’s uniform had been waiting at the entrance of the corridor for a long time.
She was the head maid who took care of shier. Ever since shier came to the frost country, she had been taking care of her daily life.
Even if she became the king, Shier did not change her.
Shier took off the crown on her head and threw it to the head maid.
“Your Majesty, can you please stop throwing your crown around?”The head maid held the heavy crown with some distress. She had almost thrown the crown to the ground just now.
This was a serious crime that was enough for her to be sentenced to death.
“It’s too heavy. If you have time, ask the craftsman to make a lighter one.”
Shier walked quickly on the red carpet paved road. It was not an exaggeration to describe the lifestyle of the previous king of the Frost Kingdom as extravagant.
It could not be denied that he was influenced by the court of heretics. It was unknown how much benefits those people had extracted from the people of the Frost Kingdom.
“Good morning, elder brother!”
When shier reached the corner, he met a girl with long gray hair.
“Good Morning.”
After shier responded to her coldly, he brushed past her and left. He did not even look at her.
“Your Majesty, Forgive me for speaking out of turn. Her Highness Darian has always had a good impression of you.”
The maid quickly followed behind shier. She turned around to look at the disappointed expression on the young girl’s face and whispered to shier.
“Is it because of my identity?”
Shier turned his head to look at the row of oil paintings hanging on the wall. These paintings were the past kings of the Frost Kingdom.
Soon, Shier’s portrait would also be hung on this wall.
“Not long after you came to this country, her highness the thirteenth princess, Princess Dillian, noticed you,”the head maid added. “So did the fifteenth princess.”
”… I remember that my sister is only thirteen years old?”
Shier covered his forehead with his hands, feeling a little annoyed.
Growing up in Nolan, she had been taught by her mentor that it was forbidden for close relatives to have children.
However, in the frost kingdom, it seemed to be normal for the royal families to marry each other.
“In the Frost Kingdom, you can get engaged at this age,”the head maid emphasized. “Before many young ladies of noble families also have feelings for you, Your Majesty… Forgive me for my offense, but if you choose one or two of them, it will be very helpful to consolidate your position.”
“I’m not interested at the moment.”
Shier pushed open the door of her room and walked in. She took off the cumbersome clothes on her body and stretched her elbows.
“Are you going hunting in the afternoon? Or to the military camp?”
The head maid carefully placed the crown on the table and then went to Shier’s wardrobe to help her pick out clothes.
“No… I want to go to Nolan,”shier said.
“Visit Nolan? Then Your Majesty, you need to talk to the tailor of the royal family. For the time being, there are no clothes in your wardrobe that can be worn on such an important diplomatic occasion,”the head maid said with some embarrassment.
“Not as a king, but as an ordinary person.”

“Ordinary people?”The head maid did not understand what shier meant.
“I want to hide my identity as the King and stay in Nolan secretly for a while,”shier said.
“How… How can you do that, your Majesty! The situation in the country is not stable yet. If your identity is exposed, it will be very dangerous without guards, and…”
The head maid began to dissuade shier from doing such a thing.
“So you have to keep it a secret for me.”Shier turned to look at the head maid, the head maid’s astonished expression was reflected in her light gray pupils. “You are one of the few people I can trust. I haven’t even told my mother about this.”
The head maid could only answer shier in silence.
Shea ignored her and just held her clothes up to the mirror.
There were only men’s clothes in her closet, and that was to be expected.
She didn’t think it was inappropriate for Shea to wear these men’s clothes, and she had always worn a spell caster’s robe in Nolan.
But today, Shea had a strange feeling of confusion, or rather, a feeling of unwillingness.
Under the influence of this feeling, the clothes that usually looked normal now felt very inappropriate.
These clothes were a little too ugly? And should he grow his hair a little longer?
Shier tidied the gray hair that just happened to touch his neck.
“Your Majesty.”After experiencing an intense psychological struggle, “May I ask why you want to hide your identity and go to Nolan? Is there a secret mission… that requires you to avoid the eyes of the remaining members of the domestic heresy court?”
“Not really.”
Shier used her hand to hold the gray hair on the back of her neck. She realized that it was too short to be tied up.
“Then why do you want to hide your identity?”The head maid asked carefully.
“I just want to meet someone in Nolan,”shier said. “I don’t want him to know my identity.”
While shier was talking, the head maid looked at her through the mirror and found a rare smile on her expressionless face.
