Reborn as a werewolf ancestor

Chapter 49: Marcus' Answer

The bright moonlight reflected in the room.

Kane looked at the two people kneeling on one knee with a smile, waiting for the other party's answer.

When Marcus heard Kane's question, he first let out a wry smile, and then spoke.

"Sir, in terms of talent, I should be the least talented among all the people present. I know very well that my future will only stop at the beginning of the second level, and I can only be a little knight or a knight.

long."

"Actually, there's no fundamental difference, and it's not too bad for me."

"However, since that day, after the decisive battle between you and Horst, the thoughts in my mind have changed slightly."

"I know that I can't catch up with you like this. You will go further and further away, and I can only stay where you are and watch you go away. This makes me feel a little unwilling."

"I don't want to stand still, I want to follow your footsteps, and I am willing to do so! I am willing to accept your gift!"

Kane smiled and said: "Gift? It's a very appropriate word."

"Get up, both of you."

The two stood up slowly and looked at Kane.

Looking at the two people with extremely candid eyes, Kane gently patted their shoulders and comforted them.

"As early as the day I ascended the throne, after you swore your loyalty to me, I have trusted you unreservedly."

"Don't worry, the werewolf blood will be given to you sooner or later, but the time has not yet come. Let's see how Sitz's situation is before further discussion."

"I understand, sir." Both of them bowed their heads and said yes.

Kane continued to order: "Okay, I won't say any more sensational words. The oath just made will also be remembered in my heart. You just need to always understand who you are loyal to."

"Keep an eye on Sitz, I'm going back to my room to rest."

Looking at Sitz who was tied up with ropes on the hospital bed, Kane turned and left, leaving Catherine and Marcus behind.

One of them walked to the hospital bed and sat down, while the other leaned against the wall and continued to observe the banquet in the atrium, with expectations for the future in their eyes.

.........

The next day, early morning.

Kane was sitting in his bedroom, unfolding the map of the border, thinking about something.

Beside him, the two moon wolves were still sleeping.

After falling into a coma for several days, Kane was still a little worried about whether they would suffer from a lack of food.

But looking at the steady breathing of the two Falling Moon wolves, he understood that he was overthinking it. It seemed that the spiritual source in the air could also bring energy to the bodies of the two wolves.

Looking at the huge map, I remembered the time when the orcs wanted to quickly capture the Mountain Corner Fort.

Kane secretly speculated whether the other two nobles had also been attacked.

If the opponent had not encountered the orc attack, they should not have come to support Kane yesterday.

Both nobles have sufficient troops in their hands, and they will send people to patrol around the territory on weekdays.

Kane's Cape Fort is located in the middle of the two. Therefore, whether it is the patrols of Viscount Muchat or the scouts of Earl Sardis, they should be aware of the abnormalities in Kane's territory at the first time.

At this time, a bold guess appeared in Kane's mind.

This attack by the orcs may not be an accident, but a premeditated action.

Through some unknown method, they learned the location of Cairn Mountain Corner Fort and its meager military strength.

And the day before yesterday, they attacked all the defensive lines together and used two armies to delay Viscount Muchat and Earl Sardis.

Then, a surprise force was formed to quickly attack Kane's Cape Fort, using this as a front to invade the Kingdom of Dylan from the south, thus easing the war situation in the north.

In fact, the actual situation is basically the same as Kane's guess.

It's just that there is a slight deviation in the strategy of the two nobles, because the military order of the Orc Empire is to suppress the two nobles firmly and capture them if possible.

The commander of the surprise team is also led by a relatively capable lizard man from within the empire.

If this plan had been controlled by an ordinary baron, they might have succeeded. Unfortunately, they encountered Kane, a variable beyond common sense.

Just when Kane was guessing the actions of the orcs, a fast horse came from a distance towards the location of the Horn Castle.

The gate of the castle is still undergoing maintenance. The stone gate that was broken by the lizards that day has not yet been restored to its original appearance so quickly.

Seeing someone coming on horseback, all the soldiers put down the stones in their hands and looked at each other warily.

The archers patrolling the battlements also came and drew their bows, aiming at the opponent.

"Stop! Show your identity."

"On the order of Lord Sardis, I specifically want to deliver this letter to Lord Ridgit."

The archer looked to Catherine's lieutenant, Charles, who was present, for advice.

Charles had already been told by Catherine the names of the two nobles around him, and seeing that the other party's clothes did not seem to be fake, he nodded to let them go.

"Go and inform Lord Kane quickly."

"Yes, Deputy Sergeant."

The other party's messenger was released into the atrium, waiting for Kane's arrival.

Along the way, not only was the horse panting, but he was also a little tired.

But when he thought of the serious look on his face when the count told him, he understood that this matter was extremely important.

He unscrewed the water bottle in his hand and drank it in one gulp to relieve the dryness in his mouth.

The atrium was still very busy. Some people continued to collect firewood after yesterday's bonfire, and some people carried stones to repair the stone door.

The messenger stopped curiously, and a passing soldier asked.

"Brother, what's wrong with your city gate?"

The soldier who was dragged away was not angry, but explained patiently.

"Hey, you don't know. This stone gate was a good deed done by the orc army earlier. That day, the dark orc army came towards our Mountain Corner Fort. If Lord Kane hadn't led us to resist, I don't know what the consequences would have been.

how."

The messenger let go of the kettle in surprise and asked: "What!? Are you also attacked by the orc army?"

The soldier nodded: "Yes, brothers, are you too?"

The messenger immediately talked non-stop: "Isn't it true? If you ask me, that orc is really despicable. He actually chose the early morning when the legion is most relaxed. Fortunately, our Lord Earl..."

Until Kane walked to the atrium, the messenger was still bragging about how powerful the count was and how brave he was in the battle at that time.

"Ahem."

Kane coughed slightly, and the messenger immediately turned around and saw the baron arriving in front of him.

He quickly knelt down on one knee and handed the letter in his hand to Kane.

"Sir, this is a letter that the Earl of Sardis has personally ordered to deliver to you. The Earl said that the matter is urgent, and I hope you can read it as soon as possible."

After delivering Earl Sardis' information, the messenger bowed and rode away again on his fast horse.
