110. The Well Under the Blue Roof
"This is a message from Russwolf. It will take two or three days for reinforcements to arrive."
Zimmer took out a chimney hanging from the bridge of the messenger and read it.
"Two or three days... Is that the only way to do it?"
Christine's voice was dark.
They broke through the Nixus Bridge and exited Green Hill.
Then, a large force moved, including the Vatican knights stationed in the imperial palace and the Vatican knights of the Blue Gales north of Green Hill.
Even if Christine and his group were only a hundred warriors, there were only a hundred of them, and many of them were wounded. In addition, there are no weapons except for knives.
It was very disadvantageous to fight against the large forces pressing from the north and south.
They had to hold out for two or three days when reinforcements arrived.
He slept during the day and moved at night to avoid being chased, and now he was moving on a forest road.
"Lady Isabelle has betrayed us in the end."
Isabelle must be fully aware that they are in a predicament.
But the Kalame soldiers did not make any moves.
"Now that she's got everything, there's no reason to help us."
"I told you not to let go of the Grand Duke until the end!"
Zimmer cried out in anger at being betrayed.
But Christine laughed with his hair unkempt.
"Don't hate her too much, because you've already paid for her."
"The calculation is over?"
Zimmer was puzzled, but Leanna staggered toward him.
"Are you going to open a well under the blue roof?"
"Looks like you're alive, kid."
Trying to make a gap in the shield on the Nixus Bridge has left Leanna almost exhausted.
However, she was forced to travel, so Christine always carried her horse. In addition, he personally took care of Leanna.
Instead of answering, Christine stared at Leanna.
"Is it really possible?"
Zimmer looked at her along with Christine.
On the surface, she was just a pretty girl.
When the priests' shields were rendered useless, they couldn't believe it.
Even so, it was a seal of the wolf clan that had been secretly locked for more than a hundred years.
Can she really open something like that by herself?
"That's why we need this key."
Leanna pulled a small golden box from the bag she was draping over her shoulder.
When she opened the box, which looked like a hardcover book, there were five metal ornaments.
"Didn't you get it from Madame Isabelle?"
Zimmer asked.
"Yes. That is the coat of arms of the five families that make up the aristocracy. They built a well, sealed the wolf clan, and cast a magic spell on it to lock it."
"Ah, that's the key, and in exchange for that, you paid the bill with Lady Isabelle!"
"That's right."
"And when I use my magic to break the spell on this key, it's over."
Leanna said triumphantly.
Zimmer nodded as if he understood the situation, and then suddenly pouted.
"It's too much. You hide such a huge plan from me..."
"I didn't hide it. I didn't think it would come to this point."
"But you knew Miss Leana, did you?"
Zimmer scratched the stump with his fingernails.
"You... Could it be that he was pouting?"
"It's pouting. I can't use magic, I just know how to wield a sword... I don't even deserve to be pouted at."
Apparently, it was a tight twist.
"No, a blank document can only be read by my magic, so of course I have to know."
Leanna tried to soothe him, but to no avail.
"That's it. What would the number three theme after Miss Adele and then Miss Leanna say?"
"Ah, but how much does the leader take, Uncle Zimmer..."
Zimmer glared at Leanna.
"No, it's not Uncle!"
"What?"
"I'm still a bachelor! And I'm much younger than him."
"Originally, everyone over twenty years old was called an old man."
"Not all adults are uncles. Now I understand. Why does the leader call Miss Leanna a kid?"
"That's how it looks to you! Uncle Braid!"
Leanna stuck out her tongue and hurried away.
Christine shook his head and soothed Zimmer.
"Don't think about beating her with words."
"That's right. But thanks to her, the captain looks lively."
"Was I once gloomy?"
"Are you asking because you don't know? It's always gloomy around you."
In fact, every time he saw Christine flirting with Leanna, Zimmer felt relieved.
He was worried that he would have a hard time for a while because of the separation from Adele, but he didn't have time to do that because he was taking care of Leanna. When they were fighting, they looked like an intimate father-daughter relationship.
"Have you heard anything from Adele?"
But he guessed that was Zimmer's complacent thinking.
After a moment of silence, he seemed to be lost in Adele's thoughts again.
"It has been confirmed that he has escaped the Nixus Bridge. But the rest of the news is still..."
"Didn't Jennifer know how to handle a hawk?"
"Yes, but he is a man of combat power and responsibility, and they will be safe."
"That's how it should be."
It was then. The scout rushed over.
"This is an attack by the papal knights!"
At that moment, the people who were resting comfortably picked up their knives and prepared for battle.
"What shall I do?"
Zimmer asked nervously,
"I'll clear the way. We're going to Bluegale!"
To be precise, the villa of the Marquis of Oswald.
The place where the wolf clan is sealed!
It was then that Adele realized that she was grumbling with Mark.
"Alas, I'm sorry. I'll stop going in."
"I'll help you."
"No, I don't. Patients are waiting for you."
Adele staggered into her room and fell down on the bed.
She was motionless for a while, like a dead person, and muttered thinly.
"Chris, the roses are already blooming..."
Adele, when you arrive, the cherry blossoms in the Lake Garden will be gone. But I'll hurry back before the roses fall.
"This is a message from Russwolf. It will take two or three days for reinforcements to arrive."
Zimmer took out a chimney hanging from the bridge of the messenger and read it.
"Two or three days... Is that the only way to do it?"

"Looks like you're alive, kid."
Trying to make a gap in the shield on the Nixus Bridge has left Leanna almost exhausted.
However, she was forced to travel, so Christine always carried her horse. In addition, he personally took care of Leanna.
The Knights Templar, who saw him, made fun of him, saying that he looked like a father and daughter.
In fact, they were two people who looked too much alike with dazzling silver hair and blue eyes. He is stubborn and doesn't want to lose.
"Ugh, what's a kid for the only wizard of the Templars? If you keep doing that, you'll run away from home."
"It wouldn't be a bad idea to try. However, deserters are to be executed as soon as they are caught."
"Hey, aren't you serious about the little girl?"
"I treat everyone sincerely. Especially the little ones like you who are like unbridled foals."
Zimmer, who was looking at the two of them, shook his head.
If they met each other while caring for each other more than anyone else, they would be so fierce.
"By the way, what is the blue roof, and what is the well?"
"Never approach an old well under a blue roof, your soul may be eaten."
Leanna was talking more and more meaninglessly.
Christine explained.
"Do you remember the Oswald villa in Bluegale the other day?"
"Yes, it was burned to ruins... Could it be that the blue roof is a blue gale?"
"Yes, I was looking around the villa and found a half-collapsed wall in the basement. There was a door behind it. If it hadn't been burned, no one would have known about the existence of the gate. The well is probably behind the door."
"But what are you going to do by opening that well? It must be a dry well."
"We need to open the seal. Awakening the Wolf Clan."
Leanna's words gave Zimmer goosebumps.
"Could it be that the wolf clan is sealed there...?"
"Yes, the blank paper that Jan was looking for was a pact to awaken the Wolf Clan. He intends to wipe out the Vatican and take over the world with the Wolf Clan."
The world's strongest warriors were so strong that they were feared by everyone.
The cunning people gathered their strength to destroy them and sealed them away.
The wolf clan had been forgotten for over a hundred years.
Christine was going to wake them up now.
To survive.
"But... Is it possible to open the seal?"
In fact, they were two people who looked too much alike with dazzling silver hair and blue eyes. He is stubborn and doesn't want to lose.
"Ugh, what's a kid for the only wizard of the Templars? If you keep doing that, you'll run away from home."

"Can I take a walk?"
Adele asked Mark, who came in for the morning consultation.
"I think it's best not to move from the bed just yet."
"I'll move carefully. If I feel unwell, I'll lie down on the floor, so don't worry."
Mark smiled faintly.
"I don't make you lie on the floor."
"Then I understand that the doctor's permission has been granted."
"Let's do that. I think you've recovered to some extent."
Adele then carefully stepped out of bed.
As she continued to lie down, she couldn't feel strength in her legs. Mark supported her as she stumbled.
"Hold me by the shoulders and walk slowly, Adele."
"I didn't want to move with your help, but you'll take care of me for a while."
"As many as you want."
Adele couldn't help but put a hand on Mark's shoulder and squeeze it.
It would have been nice to ask Jennifer for help, but now she couldn't help it, because he couldn't take care of himself.
"It's really nice to see you two."
When the abbot saw them, he smiled heartily.
But that was not all. A group of women who came to receive medical treatment also chattered.
"Congratulations on your pregnancy! Have a healthy and beautiful child."
"This time, you have to give birth to a daughter who looks like your wife!"
"What are you talking about? A daughter lives better if she resembles her father!"
They laughed and chatted, saying it was a good thing, but Adele couldn't laugh with them.
Instead, he looked up at Mark in confusion.
She knew that the abbot had no choice but to surround them as a couple. However, she hadn't expected that everyone in the village knew about it.
Besides, everyone believed without a shadow of a doubt that Adele was pregnant with Mark's child.
Mark whispered, embarrassed.
"I'm sorry. It's a small town, so word of mouth is fast."
Seeing Mark apologize made Adele feel even more sorry.
"It's okay. I was so trained by rumors. What if there was a girl who had feelings for you, anyway?"
"Oh no! I didn't think about that."
Watching Mark playfully pat his forehead and look at her in embarrassment, Adele smiled faintly.
She was misunderstood unexpectedly, but she was glad she came out after a long time.
After basking in the clear sky and warm sun, Adele felt much better.
It was then.
"This... It's a baby gift."
A girl about 10 years old ran up and handed her a flower. It was a red rose.
Adele was stiff and didn't accept the flower willingly.
The girl looked at her with frightened eyes, wondering what she had done wrong.
"The roses are already blooming on the side of the road, so it's beautiful..."
Adele said, hugging the girl and thanking her.
"Ah, thank you. It's really pretty. My baby will thank you."
The relieved girl ran away with a smirk.
However, Adele's expression on her face as she looked at the rose made her feel like she was about to cry.
"Adele? Are you feeling unwell?"
Mark examines her complexion and asks,
"Isn't it a foul for roses to bloom already?"
Adele asked again.
"Yes?"
"It's only April, so why are the roses already blooming?"
“That’s right. He’s a bit of a hothead. But I didn’t ask you to avoid him.”
Adele asked Mark, who came in for the morning consultation.
"I think it's best not to move from the bed just yet."
"I'll move carefully. If I feel unwell, I'll lie down on the floor, so don't worry."
Mark smiled faintly.
"I don't make you lie on the floor."

"No, I don't. Patients are waiting for you."
Adele staggered into her room and fell down on the bed.
She was motionless for a while, like a dead person, and muttered thinly.
"Chris, the roses are already blooming..."
Adele, when you arrive, the cherry blossoms in the Lake Garden will be gone. But I'll hurry back before the roses fall.
