Chapter 267
TL: Zimmings
Sourire bit the back of the beast’s neck, which rushed to Leblaine. Then, he slammed the ground with his large paws and got up to block the enemies in front.
There was a huge difference in size between the human hands and Sourire, a werebeast from birth.
‘They’re like a chihuahua in front of doberman, a cat in front of a tiger!’
Leblaine covered her mouth with her hand and giggled.
Humans and werebeast differ in intelligence. For this reason, humans look down on werebeasts, but in fact, if it is one-on-one, the werebeasts would definitely win.
Their unique soft joints and physical strength are ten times stronger than humans.
Sourire was already very strong among werebeasts. But, his intelligence is lower than theirs.
In other words, if there is a person who can control him properly, they will not be able to win against them.
It was probably Jonathan, the paladin, who controlled Sourire in Leblaine’s first life.
Come to think of it, Jonathan always knew where Sourire was.
And the person who is in charge of Sourire in this life…….
“At 5 o’clock.”
Sourire’s ears twitched hearing the low voice, and his blue hair fluttered in the wind above the trees.
“Clear up!”
Dubblede soldiers flocked and went around Leblaine in a circle. Then the man on the tree jumped and protected Leblaine.
Zachary, the strongest knight whose strategy is unrivaled, is the one who can control Sourire in this life.
All of the four knights are excellent, but their strengths and weaknesses are clear.
Sourire is less intelligent but physically competent. Zachary was the opposite.
‘But if the two make up for each other’s weaknesses and make their strengths stronger…’
Tick, tick-!
Countless zeros were drawn on the calculator in my head that was estimating the value of the two.
They are no match for Sourire. The opponent side was chaotic, while running away to avoid Sourire, he knocked down the enemies he encountered like matchsticks instead.
The time to maintain this body was also extremely short. After about an hour of battle, the soldiers of Amity, Marche, and Beryl lost their minds and fell apart.
It was a perfect victory for Dubblede.

Before the battle was over, I got disconnected from Lane.
I let go of Lane’s core and let out a long sigh.
“Blaine, are you okay?”
Tri looked at me sweating with a worried face. Cecilia quickly handed me cold water.
Controlling Lane’s body with the core also consumes a lot of mana. After Sourire defeats the enemy, my body almost bursts.
“Aunt, shouldn’t we call the doctor?”
Cecilia shook her head. It is difficult to call someone for no reason and find them suspicious of me.
On behalf of the doctor, Cecilia checked my condition.
“Your body is a mess. You’d better hurry back.”
“Yes…”
“Okay?”
I rubbed my eyes with my chubby hand and looked at Cecilia with a haggard look.
“Did I do a good job?”
“Pardon?”
“How am I?”
Cecilia, who opened her eyes wide, soon burst into laughter.
“You were so great. Wouldn’t the people who watched today’s battle shout out your name? The temple’s plans are completely ruined.”
I laughed out loud.
‘Okay, then the suffering is fine.’
The pope’s plan to publicize Mina’s name through the battle of seven families was ruined. It only resulted in the temple becoming a joke.
“Blaine, Brivi will finish up the battle, so let’s leave the imperial palace before that. I’ll carry you on my back…… Blaine?
Tri’s voice gradually drifted away. My vision narrowed, and when Tri and Cecilia called me, I lost my consciousness.

When I came to my senses, my whole body was throbbing. When I lifted my eyelids, what I saw was…….
“Ah!”
I screamed when I saw Taylor sticking out his head.
“You’re going to make me deaf.”
“You surprised me!”
“I was checking you with your father’s order. Screaming is too much as soon as you see your nice uncle.”
When I let out a sigh and grabbed my chest, Taylor looked at me with a ridiculous look.
‘How long did I lie down? My body feels like a rock.’
When I rubbed my shoulders thinking that way, Taylor crossed his legs and said.
“Two weeks. You should have seen how extreme your father and brothers acted.”
“My dad and my brothers are always like that. But 2 weeks? Really? 2 weeks?”
“Yes.”
“What about the battle?”
“Of course it’s Dubblede’s victory. The allied forces have been hiding for a while without raising their heads.”
I jumped up and down shouting “What to do!”
Since the battle of 7 families is over, I should have gone to the palave! I was the commander, but I didn’t go, so people must’ve thought it was strange.
When I made a crying face, Taylor pressed my forehead and laid me on the pillow.
“I know what you’re worried about, but Henry took care of it well. Johann was saved, and in the second half of the battle, you also told the imperial palace that you were not feeling well.”
“But it must be noisy outside asking who the culprit is.”
“Yes. The emperor ordered to catch the one who dared to cast a spell in a sacred battle. It was pressure from your father. By the way…
“What?”
“The investigation team is lead by Amity right now.”
Huh?
No, Amity investigate the whole thing when two of Dubblede’s commanders were struck by magic?
Isn’t that crazy?’
When I frowned, Taylor smiled.
“You shouldn’t think that you are the only one who is favored by the emperor. Before you were born, Amity was the emperor’s sword and shield. He was the one who saved the emperor, who had to meet assassins countless times in his bedroom before his accession.”
“I know, but there are a lot of things to say because the Amity and allied forces are the most dangerous for the investigation team.”
If it’s Theodore Dubblede, he won’t miss this golden chance to destroy Amity.
The empire was almost Dubblede’s. In this situation, if Amity, one of the few families that have some influenfe there disappeared, Dubblede’s power would overflow the imperial palace.
‘Breaking the balance of power means that he will not sit by.’
Emperor, this yellow head-
I clicked my tongue.
“But I don’t understand why they’re the head of the investigation team.”
When I say that, Taylor laughed.
“Child, your father is heartless more than you think. In fact, even before the Duke of Amity became the head of the investigation, he was working behind the scenes to bring him down.”
“Why are you talking about something obvious?”
“What?”
“No, the opportunity to bring people down! Is the person who gave the opportunity bad, or my father who seized the opportunity is bad?”
Looking at me as if he had heard nonsense, he burst into laughter.
“Who would think you’re not the daughter of Theodore Dubblede? Well, this is the result of you and your brother’s injury.”
What he handed over was an engelot. My face brightened at once, so I quickly hugged it. Taylor asked, “Are you that happy?” and I nodded several times.
Of course, I’m that happy.
I can say goodbye to my ancient body say hello to my body in present life.
I quickly kicked Taylor out and put divine power into the engelot.
Rumble-
The place vibrated, and a pillar of light appeared in front of me.
[I’m the 35th pillar, Marcosiac, The one who called me-]
“It’s me! It’s me! Me! I called you out!”
[I’m not done talking yet.]
“Oh, it’s not important to be honest. Get rid of the rest of her power!”
I’ll grant your wish.
Let’s take care of it quickly, okay?
[If you want me to get my power, pay that price. What I want is…….]
As I listened to him with an excited face, my expression gradually darkened.
There’s nothing in the world that goes the way I want!
***
The next day.
When I visited the shopping district with Seria, I hid behind a pillar and stared at a person’s back.
“Lady, you’re not feeling well, so go back to the mansion.”
Hearing Seria’s words, I shook my head and spoke in a gloomy voice.
“No. Because I have to grant its wish.”
“What was its wish?”
I gritted my teeth.
[What I want is the tears of the most righteous God’s child, if you fulfill what I want, I will also fulfill your desire.]
“Seria, who do you think is the most righteous person in the world?”
“That-”
Seria hesitated before answering.
“-Isn’t it the Duke of Amity?”
“That’s why…!”
Even if we catch someone on the street and ask them, they will all answer like that. So I was chasing the Duke of Amity sinc3 the morning.
“I can’t just tell the knights to bring tears by hitting the Duke of Amity.”
Wouldn’t he find me suspicious by then?
‘Of all things, I can’t use etwal because it’s an ancient body, so I can’t do anything…’
I sighed deeply and rubbed my face.
“Uh, uh! Lady, the duke go into the building.
I rushed and ran, grabbed the exterior wall of the building, and stuck my head out.
But then,
“Argh!”
Someone held me up.
While moving around, I looked at my opponent with a stiff face.
The Duke of Amity squinted and asked.
“Why did you follow me since the morning?”
