- Ulf, this time we managed to get even more than the previous time, and next year we will go west?

- Ragnar I don't know, I'll be a father next year. We also destroyed their four settlements, including a large church, and killed the bishop, the next raids can be more dangerous ... we must have more people. For now, let's enjoy what we have gained.

- But are you planning something?

- Many things Ragnar ... I know where are great beautiful cities like Constantinople. It is inhabited by 250,000 people, to conquer this city it takes thousands of boats and even more people ... Rome, Paris, Baghdad ... but this is a distant future.

While we were talking, part of the crew gathered next to us, I told stories about kingdoms, people, beliefs, customs, legends and fairy tales.

- Ulf, how do you know all this?

- Leif, I learned their languages, read their books, asked slaves ... Our land is beautiful, but it is difficult to live on. Someday we will have to look for another home. That's why I try to find out as much as possible. Unfortunately, our Jarl does not understand this, he only sees quick profits and does not think about the future.

A discussion ensued, some were of the same opinion as me, others were more skeptical.

- You don't have to take my word for it, we took one ship, they had more ships and they robbed more than we did ... when we come back, you will see who will be rich, you or them.

After a few weeks at sea, we were close to home ... we already saw the familiar shoreline, tomorrow at the latest we will be in Kattegat.

People gathered on the shore watching our ships ... it was the last raid of the year, they were curious what kind of goods and news we brought.

My ship landed first, and my crew began to lead the slaves out and unload the looted goods. Lagertha and her parents were waiting for me on the shore ... It was already visible that she is pregnant.

I walked over to them, grabbed the Lagertha by the waist and lifted her up.

- (giggle) ULF !!! Let me go! Put me on the ground!

Holding the Lagertha above me I took a few steps and went into the water.

- If you want me to let you go ... then...

- ULF!!! NO!!! Don't you dare to do it !!! I'll kill you ... you'll sleep on the floor.

I took her back to the shore. I greeted Arne and Frida.

- How are you, my dear wife? Did you take care of yourself?

Lagertha said she was fine, that she was eating a lot more, that she was vomiting and but the vomiting has stopped ... in my experience I have concluded that she is in her third month of pregnancy, maybe a week or two more, but definitely less than four months... So in six months I will become a father.

I told Lagertha to come back to the farm with her parents, while the crew and I would share the loot and slaves.

There were 52 pounds of gold, 79 pounds of silver, and 123 pounds of other metal ornaments. There were also 38 slaves on our ship... and my stake is 17 pounds of gold, 26 pounds of silver, 41 pounds of miscellaneous metal ornaments and 12 slaves. Rest of goods and raw materials it was evenly distributed. Each of the crew got 1 pound of gold, 1.5 pounds of silver and 2.3 pounds of metal ornaments, the slaves were a little more difficult to divide. Only 26 people from my crew got slaves, the rest had to settle for an increased share of looted goods.

Everyone looked pleased, although the pound of gold seemed to be a small amount, it was possible to buy a few slaves with it.

Due to the large number of slaves and goods on Jarl's ships, the distribution of profits was determined only on the next day.

- Leif, I have a business for you, ask people who has slaves from the east and if he would like to exchange them for new ones ... I have twelve for exchange.

- Ulf, why do you want to exchange these for others?

- Christians irritate me and I have no patience with them. I would probably kill them after a week.

Of course it was a lie, Weles wanted me to spread my faith somehow, but I am not the type of missionary who will knock from door to door and propose to talk about god.

Leif agreed to my request, and with nothing else to do, I packed my share of the loot in bags and headed home with my twelve slaves. After arriving, I tied them to a tree in front of the house ... I wished I had cages, but I will have to think about it in the future.

I entered the house, I knocked on the threshold and when the Domownik appeared, I asked if everything was fine in my absence.

The first thing I did was heat the water up and prepare myself a bath, a few weeks at sea ... and it felt like a lump of salt.

Today I still had the whole house to myself, Lagertha, Mira and the rest will not be back until tomorrow ... I can relax now. The water was perfect, I put a hot piece of rag on my face and thought nothing ... and started masturbating ... I was over two months celibate.

- ULF WHAT ARE YOU DOING ?!

- This is my penis and I can wash it as fast as I want ...

Lagertha was standing behind me and she was laughing. She decided to surprise me and come back earlier, but she did not expect to find me in such a situation.

-... but good that you are, I need your helping hand.

But after a while I changed my mind and pulled Lagertha fully clothed into the tub.

- Your hand may not be enough, my dear wife.
