112. To Protect My Child
"Did you hear the news?"
Before daybreak, Jennifer burst open Adele's door.
"Jennifer, what's going on?"
When he saw Adele, he realized that he had forgotten to knock, so he quickly knocked on the door.
Knock knock!
"It's a knock. Come in."
"I'm sorry. It's very urgent."
Jennifer approached on crutches and held a 'Collar Aim tabloid' in his hand.
Adele's eyes widened.
"Did you get any news about him?"
"You'll be quicker to read it!"
Jennifer held the newsletter in front of Adele.
[Count Weiss awakens the sealed wolf clan!]
The title of the newsletter alone made Adele's heart pound.
In the end, he broke the seal of the Wolf Clan.
However, the situation did not improve.
It had cast a shadow of war over the world.
The Wolf Clan was in the midst of a confrontation with the Holy See, and countries were sending reinforcements to the Holy See.
It could be caught in a whirlwind of war.
"Shall I go and meet him? I also announced Miss Adele's pregnancy."
Adele smiled faintly and shook her head.
Jennifer was healthy, but his legs showed no signs of healing. Yesterday, Mark was worried for a long time.
"Jennifer is still in treatment. I knew he was safe, so that's it."
Adele hoped that this dangerous situation would not escalate further.
And if Christine was the one who held the sword of this war, she believed that it would be soon.
He doesn't want war as much as Adele.
A few days later, Adele overslept and cautiously got out of bed and opened the monastery window.
The sky was clear, and a sweet breeze brushed the tip of her nose.
Then she heard people talking.
"Did you hear the news? You said the wolf clan is so ferocious?"
"Is it just ferocious? The Count of Weiss eats the priests as well!"
"Cruel bastard! I don't know he was such a beast, and I get goosebumps when I think about how he was held up as a hero."
It was the noise of people who came to see Mark.
Adele quickly closed the window, wrapped her stomach, and went to bed to cover herself with a blanket. As if the baby in the womb could hear the sound.
"Don't listen, baby. The Count of Weiss is a very nice man. He'll be so happy to know you've been created."
She patted her stomach quietly and read the tabloid by her bedside.
She had subscribed to all the newsletters published in the market these days. To spread the news of the war, not only the Kalame tabloids but also various newsletters were being published at a flurry of times.
Of course, most of them were interested in portraying Christine as a ferocious beast.
Saying that he eats living people, or that he borrowed the power of the devil to bring back a dead wolf from life...
"It's all ridiculous and provocative."
Adele put down the tabloid with a desperate face.
The fact that people were calling him a cruel and cunning devil was greatly influenced by this newsletter. They had forgotten that he was exalted as a hero of war last winter.
However, in order to understand the situation of the war, she had no choice but to read these newsletters.
His army is about 30,000 men.
In addition to the priests who wore magic shields, the Vatican had more than 100,000 Holy Knights fighting. In addition, he said that countries are continuing to send reinforcements and priests.
Everyone said that Christine's army would soon be defeated.

Knock knock.
Mark came in with a knock.
"Good morning, Adele. How is your body?"
"It's improved a lot. You can move."
Mark shook his head when he realized what she was thinking.
"But it's still impossible to go to the Blue Gale."
"Is it really bad?"
"It's useless to look at you so pitifully and pathetically."
"How about taking a carriage ride?"
"If only the carriage didn't shake at all."
If she wants to go to the Blue Gale, she will leave in the morning and arrive in the evening. In addition, there were quite a lot of difficult roads.
"If you don't want to let me, say no."
"Isn't it a matter that requires my permission?"
"I'm sorry. Even though I knew it, I was frustrated, so I tried to complain for nothing. It would be embarrassing to go to him with this body."
"It's especially embarrassing for babies. It's finally stable."
"That's right. I keep blinking. I'm the only one who can protect him."
Adele smiled bitterly and caressed her still flat belly.
"So, Adele. I'm going home today. Why don't you come with me?"
This monastery was not far from Green Hill. Adele's mansion on the outskirts of Greenhill was a horse-drawn carriage ride in about an hour's distance.
"I think so. I need to go home and write to him."
Then Mark scratched his nose with a puzzled expression.
"That's it... I think you should go to my house too."
"Going to your house?"
"There's a fire in your house."
Adele turned to the unexpected words.
Mark's assistant Judy came into the room and laughed awkwardly. She saw that she was wearing a jacket around her arm, and it looked like she had just arrived here.
"It's been a while, Miss Adele."
"I'm glad to see you, but I'm sorry that I couldn't make you happy. Why is my house...?"
Judy glanced at Mark, hesitating to answer.
So Adele asked him for an answer instead.
"Is there anything you are hiding from me?"
Judy replied helplessly.
"People set fire to the young lady's house."
"Why do people?"
"That's it... It was the house where the Count of Weiss's fiancée lived. Mrs. Bonita was seriously injured while drying up."
Adele was stunned. Mia must be full right now.
"So is Mia okay?"
"Yes, but the atmosphere in the neighborhood is ugly, so I came here to serve the Baron. Jade and Pauline seem to be anxious too..."
Adele said firmly, after a moment of thought.
"Mark, I can't go back with you. It's horrible to put other people in danger because of me."
"Don't worry, Adele. People were anxious and took out their anger."
Judy looked at her eyes and said cautiously.
"Everyone is afraid of Count Weiss. The wolf clan might destroy the Holy See and kill the people."
Adele complained on Christine's behalf.
"He wanted peace more than anyone else! He wanted to go back to Russwolf without getting involved in a fight until the end..."
If the Vatican had not cornered him, this would not have happened.
But people were afraid that their faith would be threatened and their lives would be destroyed.
It didn't matter that the Vatican was so depraved and hypocritical.
"I know, Adele. So you should be safe first because you know what kind of person the Count is. Let's go together."
Jennifer also came into the room and said loudly.
"Baron Casler's family and Miss Adele, don't worry, Jennifer will protect you to the end! Come with me, Miss Adele, and your child needs a stable home."
It was very strange to be a child... a mother.
No, she didn't even realize that she was a mother yet, but when he talked about her child, she became strangely weak.
So she willingly became a shameless person.
"Then, please take care of me."
Mark came in with a knock.
"Good morning, Adele. How is your body?"
"It's improved a lot. You can move."
Mark shook his head when he realized what she was thinking.
"But it's still impossible to go to the Blue Gale."

There were many villas in front of the huge river flowing through the Blue Gale.
It used to be a villa for powerful people, but now Christine's army is using it as a barracks.
As a vacation home, there were many barracks lined up along the road.
Among them, the black barracks on the highest hill belonged to Christine, the leader.
In his tent, the commanders' meeting was in full swing from the morning.
"Everyone withdraws, we go to the Russwolf!"
Christine's words brought a moment of silence in the barracks.
It was a bombshell statement that no one in the meeting had ever thought of.
"No! The Holy See is about to fall, so why all of a sudden?"
The first thing that the second knight of W.G. opposed was to do so.
The big man, whose whole body was covered in fur, also resonated with him.
"Are you sane? I can't leave before I tear them apart with my own hands!"
He was named Paulus, the leader of the wolf clan, before he was sealed. The wolf clan had been sealed away for more than 100 years, frozen in time. And now, everyone, including Paulus, has sworn allegiance to him.
Looking around at the commanders around him, Christine spoke heavily.
"Unfortunately, we are on the verge of running out of food and weapons."
"Then why don't you raid the village and get some food?"
Paulus's words made Christine's eyes sting.
"We do not forgive harming civilians!"
"Damn it! Human!"
The Wolf Clan had as much hatred for humans as the Holy See. Therefore, if you do not strongly restrain them, you will not be able to stop them from harming people.
Then you will never be able to live among people.
Knowing this, Christine never allowed them to attack civilians.
"Not only that. Soon, a large coalition will come in."
At that, there was a small disturbance.
The fight with the Vatican continued for more than two months.
A huge number of paladins and priests fought each other, but the tide was turning in favor of their allies.
However, he did not know what would happen if a large coalition attacked the Holy See.
After all, there were many old people and children in the wolf clan who couldn't fight.
"Then you go to Russwolf and prepare for war with the Holy See again?"
But Christine shook his head at the question.
"No, the Holy See will give up for the time being."
Then he picked up his baton and pointed to the map on the table.
"This is the first place we will target!"
The baton pointed to the Duchy of Cadia, next to the Ruswolf. Although it was a small principality, it produced abundant iron, and it was famous for its ironware.
"Then the Kingdom of Orbis, then the Kingdom of Orbis..."
He said, pointing his baton at the surrounding countries of the Khalaim Empire.
"If there are no neighboring countries to send reinforcements to, the Holy See will be isolated by itself. Finally, if you press Kalame for the last time, there will be no place for the Holy See."
Then Paulus roared with the roar of a wolf.
"Oooo! After all, you all had a plan!"
"I really didn't expect it!"
The reason why this plan was not futile was that the countries mentioned had already been defeated by Christine.
It was a battle that could be won if they were overpowered with fierce momentum in the early stages.
After a satisfactory meeting, everyone left the barracks.
"You're the leader. You thought he had forgotten about us because you didn't come back, saying you were the captain of the guard or something."
The head of the W.G. Second Knighthood chattered excitedly. Then he stopped when he saw Zimmer's expression.
He said,

He said,
"Why do you have that face? Were you scared by the grandiose plan?"
"No, I forgot to report something to you. Let's go first."
Zimmer turned back and returned to his commander's barracks.
Of course, Christine's strategy this time was the most obvious and powerful.
But he didn't know how long the war would last.
This leaves him apart from Adele for too long.
'Were you thinking about her?'
After the seal was broken, he never mentioned Adele.
It's like someone who has erased her existence.
