The Son Of Ragnar

Chapter 351 Signy's New Warrior



Rogaland regained order amid the chaotic scenes that transpired a few hours ago. 

The majority of Kings had left before another unfortunate incident befell them but a few remained in Rogaland but King Tryggve was not among those that stayed as even he knew his presence would not be welcomed if he stayed for too long but he also needed to bury his son a befitting burial true to a Viking. 

Tor was seen as a liability because of the way he ran his mouth and his not taking fighting seriously but was more interested in chasing skirts or rather, men. 

Tor had no interest in women but men and Tryggve took note of this and it was around this time he began to grow a grudge against his son.

There was no way he could succeed him or he would bring shame to the Kingdom but Tryggve could not skip him in the line of succession without causing serious friction between him and his younger brother so Tryggve instead found a way to use his death to benefit his cause as he now on Rugalf\'s good side.

"My love, are you alright?" Lagertha asked her husband, who was lost in thought.

"Of course I am!" Ragnar tried to brush it off but Lagertha knew her husband far too well for such a thing to work but she did not speak another word. 

She knew if Ragnar wanted to talk then he would.

Lagertha had no intentions of pressuring him too. 

"It was King Gryting…" Ragnar muttered. 

"What happened to him?" Lagertha questioned her husband, urging him to speak up. 

"He did not know about Tor…" Ragnar muttered, the look on Gryting\'s face right before he bit the dust was proof of this.

Lagertha remained silent because she knew that this was something that did not need discussion either. 

"I will need to go to Vestfold soon my love…" Ragnar as he knew it would be a while before he sees Lagertha again. Ragnar could tell his wife did not want him to go but he had no choice. 

"Must you?" Lagertha asked, pouting.

Ragnar ran his fingers down the scar on her face before planting a kiss right on her lips. 

"I must but that does not mean I cannot give you a gift…" Ragnar said. Lagertha\'s eyes lit up the moment she heard this because Ragnar only used this specific wording.

She nodded as she laid back on the bed with her legs spread but before they could proceed any further, Bjorn entered the room. 

Lagertha immediately clasped her thighs shut with Ragnar trying his best to play it off but Bjorn did not care that his parents were about to jump bones. 

He had more pressing matters he wanted to discuss with his father and seeing as he might not have this opportunity when Ragnar returns, now was the best time for that. 

"Mother, I think you should return with Father to Vestfold. I will have Viggo cover for you…" Bjorn advised his mother. 

"What?" Lagertha was taken by surprise, and even Ragnar had a look of shock on his face. 

"I want you to stay in Vestfold with Father for a while, I need you to trust me on this, Mother." Bjorn was rarely like this so Lagertha knew this was serious. 

She would love this in actuality, she missed living together with Ragnar even though she knew this would be temporary.

Lagertha excused herself without further persuasion, leaving only the two men in the room. 

"What is it, Bjorn?" Ragnar began the conversation.

"There is something I have to tell you, Father, it is about Tyr…" Bjorn said and this piqued Ragnar\'s interest. 

"Tyr, what happened to Tyr?" Ragnar asked. He could sense Bjorn\'s hesitation.

"I am afraid Tyr is going to do something that he might regret…" Bjorn responded with a worried look plastered all over his face. 

-

The drama in Rogaland concluded and with Bjorn looking like he was about to spill the beans to his father about Tyr wanting Askild\'s head, this would only show that he was truly untrustworthy if he does divulge this information but everyone was focused on the expedition to England that drew near. 

King Signy was not part of this expedition but he knew that this would broaden the horizon in terms of the lands Vikings could conquer. 

Maybe this will make them stop fighting amongst themselves and focus on greener pastures. 

Because if this land was as they said then he could only imagine the other lands that waited for them.

Signy did not want to admit it but this was an exciting thought, he knew that this would be the future.

Jan was kept under the watchful eye of Kjell but the thing was, Jan did not look bitter that he got outplayed by Signy but rather this was a testament to just how much Signy had grown as a person, a growth worthy of praise. Kjell was glad that King Asmund died that day or Signy would have still been a boy but Kjell was worried about a man that Signy expected to join his ranks to replace the fallen Aksel. 

Kåre, who had been left to his own devices to act as he pleased had recently returned to Vingulmark. 

This was a man that had King Askild on the ropes, and even held his own against Ragnar for a short period. But just how strong had he become?

Kåre still had the same physique as he did four years ago but he had a lot more experience.

Vigar was also there and he had fortified the defences of Vingulmark under Signy\'s orders. 

Kåre met with Kjell, Kjell was the most level-headed among the Vikings under Signy and this was why Kåre was more interested in conversing with him than he was with others. 

"It has been a while Kåre…" Kjell greeted his old friend but Kåre did not share this same friendliness.

"Have you heard of the Viking joining King Signy?" Kåre asked Kjell because he knew that he was curious. 

"I have no idea but I know it is someone worthy of working under King Signy," Kjell responded immediately.

"Do you know what they call him?" Kåre asked, he had an interesting-looking bow strapped to his back, a new invention. 

"Huh?" Kjell questioned and Kåre did not need much persuasion to divulge the information that Kjell sought.

"They call him the Ghost of Kattegat,"
