Chapter 3: She is like a witch

In that moment, the queen quickly disappeared behind the shield and armor.
Heinrich's expression changed in the firelight, regret and vaguely relaxed alternately passing. Finally, he put down the gun complicatedly.
People from other families finally arrived: "What happened?"
"Dalton rebelled and the queen fled."
Heinrich answered concisely.
Curses and verbal abuse erupted from the crowd, and a cloud of unhappiness and tension hung over everyone's faces. Things are sliding away from control.
………………
"It's a pity that I didn't see it with my own eyes." Dalton said happily as she escorted her into the day house. "Their expressions must be wonderful."
"They will try to restore the situation, sir."
Adele reminded him.
"So, I need you to work hard again." Gentleman Dalton opened the door for the queen. "Do you mind writing a paper right away? Your Majesty."
Dalton asked the queen to draft the appointment letter of the Imperial Marshal.
In the letter of appointment, Dalton was granted the right to "in a necessary crisis, the right to form and hire an army to protect the safety of the Queen and the Roland Empire"-this power enables Dalton's mercenaries Having a valid reason to participate in the war will not make him bear the reputation of "traitor".
"My maid is safe, right?"
Adele wrote smoothly while looking up at Dalton.
Dalton placed one hand on the table and leaned over to watch the queen write. Her skin was so pale that it reflected light under the candle, and a chain inlaid with pearls made her wrist bones slender. But the words written by the quill she was holding were not as soft as ordinary ladies—the elegant italicized characters were sharp.
"Yes, you will see her soon." Dalton promised.
Adele signed her name and then stamped her and the empire with a seal.
"Then, I need to rest." Adele issued an expulsion order.
"I wish you a good dream."
Dalton stepped back graciously, and closed the door for the queen.
Unsurprisingly, she heard the sound of the door being locked from outside.
In the small matter, Dalton did not break his promise.
A few days later, the queen saw her maid. Seeing the mistress again, Mrs. Kelly knelt down in front of the queen and kissed her hand again and again, almost speechless.
Adele reached out and pulled her up: "My dear, why are you more haggard than my imprisoned hapless person?"
Madame Kelly's eyes were red, and she was full of grief and anger. Adele is the most tolerant and just monarch she has ever seen in her life-in this era of violent/destroy/prostitious kings, she worked hard day and night to gradually put a precarious empire on track. But what did she get in return?
Rumors, vicious murders, vile betrayals...
Because she is a woman!
Seeing that the maid's long eyes, who always reminded her of etiquette, had red eyes, Adele kissed her on the cheek.
"Good things and bad things always come hand in hand, Kelly." Adele said, "Don't be sad, what's going on outside?"
"They are deadlocked." Mrs. Kelly's loyalty is comparable to that of any knight. When she can't see the queen, she still tries to find out information for the queen. "The mercenaries can only land from a port-traitor The party has blocked most of the ports, and they are also gathering troops. But don’t worry, Mr. Dalton’s military command capabilities are so outstanding that we can keep the mercenaries arriving."
"I am not worried about this." Adele shook his head.
She opened the dressing table, took out a simple map and spread it out.
Who would have thought that what a queen carries with her is not jewelry but a map?
"Our neighbors are all wolves." Adele said, "The empire is facing each other with swords in their hearts, and they are afraid that they are already jumping for joy. When Dalton's mercenaries and the noble knights lose both, they should Showing his fangs, Roland tore to pieces."
Her pale fingertips slid across the map and pointed out a few countries around the corner to show Mrs. Kelly.
In her memory, after her death, these countries invaded through Roland's throne struggle. At that time, the nobles were cheating, the old and the new religions were slaughter...Thirty years of chaos caused this, and the empire was precarious. This world is like hell.
"This turmoil cannot lead to further wars." Adele straightened up. "We must shake hands with the rebels."
"You want to forgive a group of thugs who tried to murder you?!"
Mrs. Kelly jumped from the ground in shock.
"They could not kill me before, and then they will be impossible." Adele's tone became severe, "However, without the people, I will have nothing."
In June 1557, a sudden drought triggered turmoil, and Adele was busy dealing with the drought. Other countries took the opportunity to promote "women's ruling against God's will, causing disasters." This gave the Noble United Church the opportunity to launch a coup/change. In this coup, she would have been taken away from everything.
"But, but..." Mrs. Kelly could not find a reason to oppose the Queen, and finally could only say, "If Dalton finds out, he will kill you!"
Everyone knows the cruelty of that man.
"Natural disasters, man-made disasters, how long can our people withstand the devastation of war?" Adele's voice softened, "It is Dalton that will never die with the nobles, not the empire."
The light of the chandelier fell on her determined face, and Mrs. Kelly slowly knelt down and put her hands on her knees. Those kings, those enemies, they all compared her to Salome who killed the prophet, saying that her appearance was evil or desire/hope. But in Mrs. Carey's view, if Maria really exists in the world, there is no other choice but her master.
"Who do you want to contact?" she said, "Give me a letter. Even if my head is cut off, I will give it to that person."
"Heinrich." The queen mentioned the name in an eerie calm tone, "There will be someone who will send me a letter, but it will never be you."
Before Mrs. Carey wanted to speak again, the queen put her finger on her lips.
"Don't let me lose the last credible person, Kelly."
she says.
………………
The day palace was built so high into the clouds, the lush gardens and orchards make it like a fairy tale. Apart from the towers with gilded weather vanes, there is also an exquisite royal chapel in the Sun Palace, which is half hidden in the lush roses. Dalton didn't intend to break his face with the queen, so Adele under house arrest barely had some "freedom".
The queen knelt in the confessional.
She changed into a black dress, and the prayer figure was as thin as a cut out of paper.
The archbishop sitting behind the small window was expressionless.
He can be said to be the youngest archbishop of the entire Roland Empire. Before he graduated from the seminary, the professors predicted that he would go further on the spiritual path than anyone else. Although it is difficult for people to get close to him-he is handsome but too serious. Under the eagle-winged brow bones are steel-blue eyes, the lip line is always drawn straight, and the eyes are sharp as if they can cut into people's hearts and see through everything.
He is more like a judge than a rescuer.
This is why Dalton doesn't mind the queen's religious routine--
The bishop of the Royal Chapel of the Sun Palace is a devout old Christian.
"I confessed my sins to God... I am the daughter of the twin kings and the king of Roland. I am responsible for the fate of this country. All the misfortunes and all the sufferings it has encountered are my fault..."
The woman's voice echoed in the quiet confessional room, because of the special echo structure of the room, it became vaguely ethereal.
The archbishop sat indifferently and said nothing.
People confess to the priest in order to get forgiveness from the priest and thus obtain salvation. However, Adele Roland will never get forgiveness from him. She is a woman who deserves to go to hell. She is a neotheist-and she has openly declared that "all beliefs are the same, but in different ways Ask God for forgiveness".
This is heresy and an unforgivable sin.
"...Every Roland in exile, every Roland who died of hunger and war...I should bear their suffering..."
Adele's voice gradually lowered.
When the archbishop planned to silently recite the scriptures to ignore her, the queen's voice suddenly disappeared completely, followed by a low muffled noise.
He subconsciously looked up through the window.
The queen fainted on the cold stone face, her chest barely fluctuating.
At a glance, he immediately stood up.
Those who can rank among the archbishops in the empire must have a certain political sense in addition to piety. The archbishop almost instantly thought that if something happens to the queen here, what kind of disaster it will bring to him, to the old gods, and to the current situation. This heresy of the that deserves to go!
He walked out of the secret room quickly with a stern face and came to the queen.
The black dress made the queen pale, her forehead was cold, her breathing was so low that the archbishop could barely feel it... Is Dalton stupid enough to abuse his trump card? Although, if given the opportunity, the archbishop would be happy to personally send the heresy queen to the torture, but it is by no means now.
The queen did not bring the maid, and the physician in the castle was unable to call for a while. The archbishop had to personally untie the queen's coat so that she could breathe the air as easily as possible. Just when he lowered his head to find the smelling salts from his robe, Adele who should have fainted suddenly opened his eyes.
She raised her hand, put her arms around the bishop's neck, and used force suddenly.
Before the archbishop understood what was going on, he was pulled to the ground, and the original comatose was turned over and covered him.
The soft and fragrant net enveloped him, and silk-like hair fell on his face.
"What are you going to do? Heresy!"
His voice was like rock, cold and hard.
His pupils were printed with the Virgin Mary and the witch Lilith.
Adele propped up half of his body and let his dress slip off. Her upper body is almost naked/bare, and the light from the only small hole in the dome envelopes her, covering her face from the tips of her hair, her shoulders, her breasts... Her curves are cast in the shadow and gold Here, all those who witnessed this scene should crawl on the ground-for this sacred, licentious, brilliant, eternal beauty.
At this moment, the ascetic monks with a heart of iron and stone should worship her feet.
Adele's palm was pressed on the pious bishop's chest, and the quick heartbeat under the monk's cloak let her know that she had won the beginning of this war.
Dalton allowed her to move freely in the castle because he thought she had no soldiers.
But she has made herself the sharpest and deadliest knife, and her beauty will cut her enemies' chests and cut their throats.
"I want you to save me." Adele said, "not for me, but for Roland, for all the brothers and sisters who shouldn't kill each other."
Her voice echoed in the quiet room, like a god's will, like a demon whispering.
