Chapter 391: Fun at sea
Chapter 391: Fun at sea
Einar, who was on the prow of his main ship, looked at the sea with some melancholy before sighing and looking at Kalevi, who was drinking some liquor.
“Are you worried about the state of your home?”
Kalevi drank some herbal liqueur and looked at the sea with a melancholy look. “What if we don’t get there on time?”
“Only a few thousand people will die but they will have to besiege the tribe and, if I remember correctly, they had created a wall in the place.
That will give us enough time to arrive safely. Maybe some people are going to be sacrificed, but we can do absolutely nothing to avoid it.
But at least they have been informed because the Drakkar travels at a very high speed, so in a few days, they should have carried the information.
So stop worrying, there are 305 ships ready to destroy a fleet of more than 4000 ships. It will be a naval battle that will be remembered for all eternity.
I can assure you that you will be part of it and your father will respect you because you were part of something very big. “
Kalevi just laughed and continued drinking her herbal liqueur. Einar, for his part, only sighed and decided to enter his cabin so he could write in his journal and review the action plan.
The next day in the morning, Einar got out of bed and stretched out his hands before starting to exercise a bit, as he didn’t want to relax too much.
When he finished, he used a little water in a bucket to wash his body. After this, he changed his clothes and went out to see the guard who was guarding his cabin.
“Someone has approached to report some important event.”
The guard made a military salute. “Not at all Konungar Einar, throughout the night. Everything was quite relaxed. There is only a little rain and the outside.
So if you are going out, I would recommend waiting inside the ship. Today’s breakfast is pickled fish with pickled potatoes and wheat bread. “
Einar nodded and walked towards the kitchen of the ship. As he did so, he could hear the noise of the rain falling on the ship, so he could only sigh.
When he got to the dining room, he could see Kalevi eating some dried fish on rye bread spread with mayonnaise.
“Konungar Einar, I keep wondering how you created something so delicious and a perfect complement to food.”
Einar showed a confident face and spread his hands. “It’s the power of knowledge, but I was hoping to see you awake later. Did you get up early?”
Kalevi bit her bread and then her fish. “Yesterday I wanted to drink until I could sleep, but I preferred to fall asleep after wasting time reading a bit.
I have to admit that it is somewhat difficult to be able to maintain control when the liquor is so good, but how do you avoid being tempted by alcohol? “
Einar sighed and took a bottle of herbal liquor, which he opened, and drank a little. “I don’t. I just moderate its consumption because it would be a bad influence if I always made myself drink in front of my children.
Not to mention that alcohol can only help you forget some things, but it will never really help to really solve the problem that causes you to drink alcohol.
But on this trip where we will risk our lives and I am sure that we will put our safety on the line, I think it is good to have fun for a while.
What do you say you want to play Nordic deck? “
Kalevi smiled. “It’s always nice to be able to play that strange card game with someone, but I think you should finish your breakfast first.”
Einar nodded and after taking his plate of food, he ate breakfast in silence when he finished his wooden plate clean and took out a deck of cards to play with Kalevi.
“This will be a simple game of conquest, so when we gather the nine cards the game will have reached the end.”
The two nodded and started playing while drinking herbal liqueur. Before long, they were both laughing as they enjoyed telling their anecdotes.
“That day I was talking to Helmi about ice cream, so I started to make one, but when I was making it I realized that I did not know what to do.
So I went to get an apple and some milk to make an apple ice cream, but when I returned I could see my children eating the ice with salt to make the ice cream.
Their faces of doubt about not knowing what to do at that moment made me laugh so much that I would have liked to take a picture of them. “
Kalevi was surprised. “What is a photo?”
Einar drank some more herbal liqueur and with his hand made a figure of a square “A photo is an image that immortalizes important or just casual moments.
A camera is used to be able to get photos, unfortunately I do not have any of them available and I doubt that I can do any.
But if you wonder where they come from, you can say that it is from Valhalla. In that place, there are so many good things.
People who can see other people at any time using only a few pictures that fit in the palm of your hand, they call them cell phones.
There is also a compendium of information that you can review at any time with just a few keystrokes.
You can get everything you want without having to leave your home. The most important diseases have treatment and those that do not are investigated to find one.
Unfortunately, a place like that I won’t be able to go unless I die and you won’t be able to go unless you die.
But I can assure you that if one day you go, it will completely change your perception of the world because you will have all the knowledge that you want in the palm of your hand simply to look for it and be able to use it. “
Kalevi, who was also drunk, just looked at Einar in surprise. “All the knowledge in the world in your hand, I guess that must be something from the gods.
But are there diseases? “
Einar nodded. “Remember that many will die in Ragnarok. It is normal for one as a mortal to fall ill in that place, but it is all the fault of Loki, who did some things against humans.”
