In the government pce at a beautiful wooden table, Einar was sitting face to face with the beautiful Dronning Malene.


    The two were enjoying a meal before they could talk business.


    Malena was biting the soft white bread with joy. "I have never had the opportunity to try something so delicious and I have the best cooks. I hope you can share the recipe for this meal."


    Einar smiled and spread his hands. "You are always free to send your cooks here so they can learn how to cook real food.


    I can teach them a lot of foods, of course, in the end it will depend on them if they can learn or not. I will simply show them how it is done and I will exin them, but they will get the real vor as long as they continue practicing. "


    Malene opened her eyes in surprise.. "You are the herald of Odin, a Konungar, and you also cooked this food.


    That is quite surprising on your part. Usually someone like you would behave in a more arrogant way because you have the right to do so. You have not only proven your worth.


    Rather, you have the divine power to be able to behave as you would like the most, but because you behave in such a strange way is that perhaps you are afraid that they will poison your food. "


    Einar shook his head and bit into a piece of meat that was soft and had a slightly buttery vor with rosemary.


    "What is the power Queen Malene?"


    Malene was surprised by Einar''s sudden question, so she caressed her cheek.


    "Power is something that makes us superior to normal people. We should be able to use it at our convenience because it took us a lot to get it.


    I don''t think you have been the exception. Everything you have built was made with the power that you obtained with your achievements. "


    Einar looked at Malene and drank some herbal liqueur. "It''s an interesting way of looking at the conception of power, but I think you''re a bit wrong.


    Power should not be a means of life if not a tool to achieve objectives. Being a tool should not cloud our view of the things that matter to us.


    I cook because I like to do it and I work with my people because I enjoy seeing the progress of my citizens, because I enjoy what I do.


    If I make the power my focal point, I would simply miss out on all these things and have to go through life worrying about useless things.


    Each person has a different story. That is why we see things differently and I do not intend to change that, but in my philosophy of life.


    The family is the most important thing, then it is my nation andstly it is the rest.


    I think that answers your question as to why I cooked being a king. I might even be an emperor, but I would still do the same things.


    Because I just enjoy doing them. "


    Malene felt a kind of strange sensation because the man in front of her seemed so unattainable. It was as if he were with one of the mythical kings of legends.


    He was not a worldly king like her or her ex-husband; he was a true king.


    "You are surprising. I think I could not be like you, because I price power more than anything else because I have had to sacrifice too much to get it.


    I have lived and suffered so many things that make it impossible for me to leave it, but to be able to respond so calmly you are without a doubt a true king of legend. "


    Einar only bit a piece of meat and bread. "Everyone is different and the circumstances in which one lives will always be different.


    A piece of gold will not be worth the same for a rich person as for a poor person. The rich will look at wealth, but the poor will only see a useless piece of metal that they cannot eat.


    But that does not mean that either of them is correct. They are simply different ways of looking at life. "


    Malene sighed and scratched her cheek. "You are too deep in your words. Usually a king your age would be thinking of other things.


    I think it will be a real pleasure to work with you and to be able to create new frontiers for us Nordics. "


    Einar nodded and put his silverware on the empty te "Now that we''ve finished our meal I think it''s time to talk business."


    At that moment, he made a wave of his hand and some servants cleaned the table before bringing a map of Europe to the table.


    "How do you know I have no intention of entering Europe? I simply consider that ce a real pain in the ass. If you are intelligent, you should avoid it too, but at least they have a safer expansion zone than the west.


    But let''s speak clearly the ind of Irnd, the British ind and anything in that ce is my core of development.


    So it is not in negotiation. "


    Einar then pointed out the region of Hond and Belgium. "This area belongs to the Jewish kingdom that is going to be created under my protection.


    Einar pointed out the penins of Brittany and the northern part of France. "This area belongs to the emirate that will be created there.


    So this whole area will be for you. "


    Einar used a pencil to create a circle in the area of ??Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Pnd, and part of Hungary.


    "This whole zone could be your development zone where I will help you to be able to expand by giving you weapons and armor so that you can maintain the attack on those ces.


    Not to mention that you can continue to expand to the east as much as you want. If you want my advice, it would be the best you could do.


    Well, the west of the European continent is an area where you are going to find a lot of problems which can end up leading to your own defeat. "


    Queen Malene pointed to the region of Italy and the Balkans. "This ce why didn''t you share it?"


    "First, because it is a fairly remote area which is protected by a mountain range that preventsplete transit, not to mention that it will be a rather dangerous area because it will be disputed by the Byzantine empire and the Muslims.


    In fact, when I conquer those ces I will only take their poption and give thends to the Byzantines as long as they can deliver enough things of equal value.


    But if you want real advice, they should support southward expansion of the Jewish kingdom. They should be a good line of defense against Christians or Muslims.


    But now let''s talk about the distribution of arms and other issues so that we can sign the treaty. "


    Malene sighed, as she knew it would be a long day.
