Chapter 25: 27

Eustaf left Adelia with a message that he would wait.

Adelia sat alone in the drawing-room and looked at the back of Cardinal Eustaf leaving.

She felt something storming away.

Though tired, Adelia could not rest.

She has something urgent to do.

Adelia jumped out of her seat and headed to her room.

clatter

When she opened the door, her eyes met the maid who was cleaning the room.

Adelia did not miss the maid’s cold face.

Well, there are bound to be complaints.

Unmarried young grand duke at the right age for marriage. He needs to find a wonderful marriage partner. 

In addition, Ivan Hamilton is the brother whom the current emperor is very fond of.

Even if all the above modifiers were excluded, Ivan Hamilton was also a handsome man who would steal tears from social ladies.

In this way, the value of his name is bound to soar in the sky.

Then he suddenly brought an unidentified woman into the mansion.

For someone who serves the Grand Duke, it must not be a very pleasant situation.

Liam, who showed favor with Adelia and Emily, was a special case.

“It’s a little cold,”

Adelia, who breathed a sigh inside, looked at the balcony window that was wide open and said,

“I couldn’t help it because I needed ventilation.”

The maid with dark green hair explained with a blunt face.

Adelia burst into laughter.

ventilate again.

Before going to the drawing-room Adelia had opened her balcony window and watched Emily make a snowman.

If it was fresh air, there would have been enough in the room.

Adelia swallowed her sigh at her new feeling of hostility

Under normal circumstances, as soon as the servant entered the room, she should have felt the cold air, closed the door, or burned the stove to perform her duties as a maid.

Adelia turned her gaze slightly toward the stove.

The stove had been turned off for a while before going to bed last night.

“Yes. Ventilation is important.”

“Yes, then I’ll get going-”

“But if it goes like this, I’m going to be really cold. I want to take a hot bath; can you prepare it for me?”

The maid’s face was irritated by the order.

Adelia looked at the maid’s manner and said,

“Am I bothering you too much?”

The maid, raising her head slightly, had no choice but to bow again in a hurry when her eyes met Adelia’s.

for Adelia’s eyes were so frightening, contrary to what she asked in a friendly and graceful voice.

Dinah, the maid, shut her mouth to Adelia’s high-handed gaze.

“I, I’ll prepare it right away.”

“All right. make it in half an hour.”

“What…? Ha, but to carry so much water by myself….”

“Are you the only servant here? I didn’t ask you to prepare everything by yourself.” said Adelia. 

At that moment, Dinah’s face turned red. For she was ashamed of her foolish misunderstanding.

“I’m sorry! I’ll get it ready!”

Dinah escaped from Adelia’s room.

Smack!

Adelia clicked her tongue briefly as she saw the door closing in a hurry.

“At times like this, this face is comfortable.”

There was a reason why she is called a wicked woman.

Adelia’s appearance was beautiful, but at the same time sharp.

When she has a blank face or gets angry, she turns venomous.

People used to look at Adelia and compare her to a poisonous butterfly.

“Ha… I’m tired.”

Adelia shook her head and sat down on the sofa.

Feeling the soft cushion wrapped around her body, she unfolded a replica of the Bible in my hand.

Then I began to see familiar characters.

Adelia blankly stroked the letters of her previous life.

“It’s really… ridiculous.”

I burst into laughter.

The neat handwriting caught Adelia’s eye.

In terms of content, it seemed that Cardinal Eustaf eagerly interpreted the oracle.

“How can the letters be so neat?”

The neat appearance was indeed Cardinal Eustaf himself.

Of course, unlike his neat and serious handwriting, the contents of the trust he interpreted were quite clumsy.

His interpretation subtly deviated from the original content.

Not just one part, but the whole part.

At this point, the interpretation was completely wrong.

“But you managed to meet the date of the disaster.”

Adelia quickly turned the pages.

Then Adelia’s hand stopped at a certain page.

On the page that predicts the “first disaster.”

Adelia quietly read the prophecy of the first disaster.

[The disaster will begin in Rohen, a small town of the great empire located eastward from Tarke’s tears] 

Suddenly, a harsh laugh broke out between Adelia’s lips.

God had already predicted the fall of Rohen.

[A small but prosperous village will be devastated beyond what it used to be. There will only be one survivor. Be prepared for an unstoppable disaster.] 

And the fact that Hestine will not protect Rohen, that only Emily will survive.

“Well, haha…”

A feeble laugh filled the room.

My misfortune had already been decided.

To walk along the thorny path as God had set her. 

– I’m sorry, my child.

Then another soft voice penetrated Adelia’s mind.

– My child.

Who’s your child?

One side of Adelia’s mouth rose.

– I wanted to give you only good things.

– I’m really sorry. Being bound by a sacred name, yet unable to escape its limitations.

Her voice was full of melancholy unlike usual.

Adelia nervously ruffled her hair and shouted inside her.

‘It’s none of your business, so please be quiet.’ 

-…….

Perhaps the silent cry had worked, and the voice that troubled Adelia was no longer heard.

Adelia rubbed her twitching forehead and looked back at the book.

‘It’s not Rohen that matters now, it’s the second disaster.’ 

Adelia struggled to turn the pages.

“Second…”

When the second oracle page appeared, Adelia closed her eyes for a moment and took a deep breath.

“Phew… Even if you don’t want to read it, you have to read it.”

Adelia’s close eyelids slowly opened.

[On the day when the first disaster is over and the third month of life is filled, those who confront God will appear in the second most prosperous city in the empire.

Those who follow me will stop the leaps of evil things.

Then the glory will follow.] 

The month of life meant full moon. The Full Moon appears only once a month.

Therefore, there are three months left until the next disaster strikes.

“The second most prosperous city.”

The second most prosperous city in the empire is Zephyros, a commercial district.

Adelia sighed, finding out when and where the next disaster might occur.

‘What shall we do?’

[DO NOT SHARE/REPOST OUR TRANSLATION READ ONLY AT MOONLIGHT NOVELS]

Zephyros was an incomparably large city compared to Rohen.

In addition, Zephyros could be said to be the center of the imperial economy.

Therefore, the Duke of Valkyr would not let Zephyros be ruined like Rohen.

‘But the interpretation of the Oracle is wrong.‘

Adelia looked down and stared at the interpretation of the temple.

Previously, the temple interpreted the second disaster as four months later.

‘I must correct this part and send it to Cardinal Eustaf.’

Hestine’s expedition must fight back the disaster for the time being.

“On my behalf,”

Adelia closed the book with a short click of the tongue 

Just in time the maid, who had gone to prepare the bath, returned.

“The bath is ready.”

“Thank you. I’ll be right out.”

Adelia put the book deep in the drawer and left the room leisurely.

“Have you seen the saint?”

The gray-haired man bowed politely and asked the man, who appeared to be his great-grandchild.

The old man nodded his head, as always, without any discomfort.

“Oh, I’ve seen her.”

“How was it?”

“Well……she’s exactly what people say.”

She is as beautiful as a lily of the valley, pure and kind-hearted

When people talked about Hestine, they were always words that were not left out.

Well. He thinks there’s something wrong.

Yohan Kervan, the owner of the ivory tower, headed straight to his lab.

The walls of the lab were filled with books.

Without hesitation, Yohan moved forward and took out one of the many books.

It was the only white book that stood out among all black and blue books.

The back of the book was engraved with letters that were now forgotten.

“It’s only me and the old man who can decipher this text now.’

Yohan remembered a man kneeling in the depths of the Holy Land toward heaven.

He foolishly begged the sky to give him a weapon to prevent the coming disaster. 

He remembered his curved back, praying day and night.

“Am I getting old, too. I can’t believe I’m falling for useless emotions.”

John grinned and sat comfortably on the sofa with a book.

Actually, there was one thing that caught his eye.

‘I’ve heard that the symbol they’re using in the temple is different from the real one.’

However, on the left hand of the saint, which he saw in the Imperial Palace today, is the symbol used by the temple. It was exactly the same symbol, not even a slight difference.

At that moment, doubts sprang up in Yohan’s mind.

He heard about the symbol about a long time ago so he wasn’t certain.

It bothered the sage of the ivory tower.

All the scholars belonging to the ivory tower always find the answer to their questions. 

It wasn’t because it was a sense of duty or because they wanted to save the world. It was just their nature itself.

Among them, Yohan, who ascended to the position of a sage, was stronger than others. 

Yohan stopped thinking and focused on the contents of the book.

Only the sound of the candle burning wandered the room.

snap

Yohan, who showed great concentration, read a book about the size of an adult man in just 30 minutes.

In fact, it didn’t take much time to read because he already remembered most of the contents.

“Nothing,”

No matter how fast I read it, it was useless if there was no information I wanted in it.

Yohan sighed and rubbed his eyes.

“As expected, there’s no choice but to go and check it out in person.”

Perhaps the Pope knows more details than the book.

But there was a problem. It was said that the present pope has gone to the Holy Land for training. 

“What kind of training are you going to do with that old body?”

Yohan expressed his dissatisfaction with annoyance. But that didn’t change anything.

If it’s impossible to ask the Pope, he has no choice but to find out by using the ones closest to him.

‘To be sure that the saint is real, I will have to see her miracle in person.’

Unfortunately, he could not join the saint’s expedition, but he knew where the next disaster would occur.

So, all he has to do is go there without anyone knowing and observe the moment of divinity.

“Benko,”

“Yes, Master,”

At John’s call, an old man who had just greeted him came into the room.

“I’m going on a trip, so get ready.”
