The rumors about King Ragnar's arrival turned out to not just be rumors for the King of Vestfold arrived that day on a white horse and behind him, there were only five men on black horses.
They were dressed differently from your average warriors, showing that these were warriors of some prominence.
Everyone gathered, staring at Ragnar like he was an entity that descended from Asgard because the stories that they had heard about him were something.
Ragnar did not mind it but the five warriors around him were tensed up because they did not know Ragnar was so popular here despite their hostile status for quite some time.
They mistook this as some sort of impending threat.
Ulrik was at the throne room entrance as he approached Ragnar with a stern face but he did this to be professional. However, this mask soon cracked and he had a wild smile on his face.
