Chapter 142 - The Disappointed Zach

The night was getting darker in Preston.

Under the moonlight, the Werewolves waited with their green eyes.

But in their eyes, there was confusion.

The scene of the Werewolf being burned by the flames had completely shattered their desire to attack Preston.

With that sword, they couldn’t get through at all!!

They sighed in their hearts.

At the same time, they felt indignant.

Why was there such a powerful Cardinal!

Why did he have such a terrifying divine sword?!

Why wasn’t this Cardinal from their Werewolf clan?

And why wasn’t there such a powerful figure among their Werewolves?

Countless questions appeared in their hearts.

They could not understand why the heavens were so biased!

Every time they attacked the humans, there would always be some powerful humans who could stop them!

They were caught off guard!

But none of their questions could be answered.

The Werewolves hesitated for a moment and looked at the gloomy Zach and asked, “Lord Zach, what should we do next?”

Zach looked up, his eyes also filled with confusion.

What should we do?

What should we do?

He didn’t know either.

Should we let the Werewolves use their bodies to fight?

Let’s not talk about whether the werewolves would agree or not.

Even if we use our bodies to open a path, would that be enough?

Would that flame stop burning?

Would it not burn the Werewolves to ashes?

That was impossible.

He sat on the ground dejectedly. “I don’t know either.”

He looked up at the Moon.

He said helplessly, “Wait until tomorrow to send the news back to the Clan and ask for their opinion. There’s no way that we can enter this place.”

With this flaming sword around, he understood that it was impossible for them to enter this place.

With the current strength of the Werewolf Army, if they couldn’t even enter this place, how could they possibly take down Preston?

With disappointment, the Werewolves returned to the forest under Zach’s lead.

As for why they didn’t set up camp near Preston, the reason was obvious. Even with the help of the moonlight, the Werewolves couldn’t enter the city.

Were they going to wait for the Werewolves’ strength to drop during the day and then be chased by the humans?

He clearly remembered that Cardinal had something that could enhance the strength of the humans.

It had only been a day, how could the Werewolves forget how pathetic they looked before.

Therefore, they could only use this jungle as a temporary hiding place.

They would first hide from the humans during the day and wait for the news from the Clan before proceeding with the next attack.

This was what they should do now.

As for Zach wanting to make up for his losses.

After what happened just now, Zach had also recognized his own strength.

It was better for him to obediently listen to the Clan’s arrangements.

Whatever punishment he received would be fine.

With his clan’s strength in the Wolf Clan, it was impossible for them to give him a cruel punishment.

After thinking it through, Zach only wanted to have a good sleep now.

In Preston, the Holy Knights on the city wall saw the Werewolves leaving in a sorry state.

They couldn’t help but laugh loudly.

Philip glanced with disdain.

Then he said, “Alright, the werewolves just performed a big show for us, making us happy. However, after being happy, the mission still needs to be completed properly. So, hurry up and complete your own mission!”

When the Holy Knights heard Philip’s words, they chuckled. Then, they no longer cared about the Werewolves and continued to repair the city walls of Preston.

At St. Servant, Cardinal Monn and the others leisurely finished their dinner.

When he sensed the movements of Elendil, Cardinal Monn did not have any reaction.

If the Werewolves wanted to attack, then what awaited them would be endless flames.

Cardinal Monn had a lot of confidence in Elendil.

He leisurely finished his dinner.

Cardinal Monn then immersed himself in the bathroom that he had rebuilt with his beloved gold.

He wished he could bury himself and live here forever with his gold.

In the end, Ace pulled Cardinal Monn out of the bathroom with a red face.

With an unknown expression on her blushing face, Ace criticized, “Cardinal Monn, you can’t be too concerned about money! You have to put your eyes on something more meaningful!”

Ace had her hands on her waist and a serious look on her face.

Cardinal Monn sat on the chair with an expressionless face.

There was indeed some disdain in his heart.

As the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, of course she didn’t know the importance of money.

When Ace saw Cardinal Monn’s face, she knew that this guy wasn’t listening at all.

She couldn’t help but sigh.

She didn’t know when she would be able to correct Cardinal Monn’s values.

However, it didn’t seem too bad to love money like he did.

After all, as a Saintess in Orthodox Church, she was very rich!

Sometimes, when she saw how money-grubbing Cardinal Monn was, she really wanted to tell him, “If you want money, it’s easy, as long as you obey me.”

Ahem…

Ace’s eyes reddened, and she hurriedly coughed a few times to dispel this thought.

How could she be that kind of person?

No, it’s impossible!

She nodded her head with a firm gaze.

But Cardinal Monn was a little confused.

Women are really troublesome!

Cardinal Monn sighed in his heart.

Another silent night.

The night passed quickly.

The light of dawn broke through the night and and the sunlight back to the world.

Cardinal Monn welcomed the dawn and got up early in the morning.

After doing his morning exercise, he leisurely ate the breakfast prepared by Ace.

Cardinal Monn recently realized, it seemed good to have a woman at home.

Now he didn’t have to cook for himself, and it was very relaxing.

Of course, this woman must be able to cook.

Otherwise, if a useless woman came, Cardinal Monn would feel uneasy.

Ace was quite good, she could do all kinds of housework.

Cardinal Monn was very satisfied.

But there was one thing that made Cardinal Monn a bit heartached.

It was that this month’s expenses were high again.

It would be even better if Ace could bring her money along, Cardinal Monn thought shamelessly.

Not only did he want Ace to cook, but he also wanted her to pay for it herself?

If Ace heard this, she would probably tear his heart out.

Of course, Ace, who had finished cleaning up, did not know what Cardinal Monn was thinking.

She watched Alma go to school.

Cardinal Monn suddenly remembered that if he had to go elsewhere, he might have to find another school for Alma.

He didn’t know if Alma would be able to adapt to it.

He suddenly thought of this problem, and he couldn’t help but frown.

He felt that it wasn’t good for Alma.

After all, Alma had already familiarized herself with St. Servant.

Now she had to suddenly go to an unfamiliar environment.

This made Cardinal Monn feel a little worried.
