Reborn as a werewolf ancestor

In the dense woods, the huge team led by Kane was slowly moving forward.

At the back end of the team were carriages with dozens of horses, and there were several cavalry guards on each side.

The setting sun shines through the dense forest on the faces of Kane and others, as if welcoming them back to the territory.

Looking at the morning glow in front of him, Kane thought that it seemed that the last time he came to Shanjiao Fort was at this point in time.

At the front of the team, Sitz rode beside Kane, and he carefully asked the questions in his mind.

"Sir, why do you think this war ended for no reason?"

Catherine on the side also echoed: "Yes, sir, has the earl told you the reason?"

Kane rode his horse, looked into the distance, and shook his head silently.

"No, I'm afraid even the Earl of Sardis doesn't know the reason?"

"The battle situation on the frontline is changing rapidly. It is not something we can predict, but isn't the end of the war a good thing? No one will die in this battle again, and we can return to our territory safely."

Sitz, who yearned for peace, felt the same way. He agreed: "You are right, that's exactly what it is."

Catherine on the side also said: "Sir, after returning from this trip, I would like to give the soldiers a few days of rest to relieve the stress during this period."

Kane smiled and said: "Well, not to mention the soldiers, even we have been frightened by the orcs in the past few days. Let them have a good rest."

"Yes, sir."

...........

The team walked all the way through the woods and walked out of the forest trails, and finally arrived at Maike Village before sunset.

At the entrance of the village under the setting sun, many villagers were gathering together, waiting for the arrival of the team.

Earlier, villagers who were doing farm work outside the village noticed the team returning from Shanjiao Fort.

He quickly notified everyone in the village, because there were many family men serving in Kane's army.

Looking at the team approaching from a distance, the villagers burst into warm welcome.

As if inspired, the somewhat tired soldiers in the team straightened their bodies.

Just like that, the team entered Maike Village.

Kane was very humane and stayed here for a while so that the soldiers could meet their families.

"Otim! This way."

"Let mom take a good look at it. How have you been these past two months?"

A middle-aged woman came to Otim's side. She held Otim's face with both hands and kept stroking it.

"mom."

Seeing his mother whom he had not seen for a long time, Otim hugged her tightly.

The father who came behind him also opened his arms and hugged the two of them.

After a long time, Otim loosened his hands and looked at his father and mother.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back."

Father patted Otim on the shoulder with great satisfaction and said, "We are all very happy that you can come back safely."

"Yes, there is still some beef at home that has not been stewed. Mom will prepare it for you later. When you return to the barracks, remember to come back quickly."

"Okay, Mom."

Some people are happy and some are worried. War is so ruthless and it takes away the lives of some soldiers.

Different from the warm reunion of Otim's family, a middle-aged woman was walking with her young children in the crowd, looking for her husband.

"Lycoord, where are you?"

After searching for a whole circle, she couldn't see him.

Finally meeting her husband's comrade-in-arms, she hurried forward, grabbed the other man's collar and asked.

"Lister, where is Leckold? Why didn't I see him?"

The soldier named Lister was silent at first, and then shook his head with a painful expression.

Like a thunderbolt, the middle-aged woman stayed where she was.

Lister left only one sentence, "My condolences and my condolences," and then went to reunite with his family.

The child with a runny nose was holding his mother's sleeve. He still didn't understand why her mother suddenly stopped moving.

The woman who had regained consciousness took the child's right hand, walked through the crowd without giving up, and came to Catherine's side.

"Little Catherine, no, Captain Catherine, do you know what happened to my Lecter?"

Catherine, who was chatting with Sitz, also fell silent when she heard this.

She sighed and said: "My condolences, Aunt Ajim and Uncle Lekold have died in the war..."

The woman froze on the spot again. She slowly knelt down, hugged her son beside her, and cried bitterly.

The little boy was a little panicked and kept trying to comfort his mother, until he finally hugged his mother and cried.

Catherine couldn't bear it. She turned around, dismounted, and came to the mother and son.

He took out a silver ring from his pocket, which was a relic of Rykold.

In fact, after arriving at Mountain Point Fort, every soldier will entrust something to her. If they die in battle, they can entrust Catherine to give it to their families.

"Uncle Lecter entrusted this to me and entrusted it to you."

When the woman heard this, she looked up and cried even more intensely.

That was the ring he and her husband exchanged when they got married, and he still wears one on his right hand.

Perhaps she was missing something, because the woman held the ring in her arms, but kept mumbling her husband's name.

She stood up in confusion, took the crying little boy beside her, and stayed away from the lively crowd. Even Catherine's words behind her, telling her to give her a pension, she didn't seem to hear.

Scenes like this have been played out several times. Either the elderly parents came to ask about their son, or the young wife came to ask for the details of her husband.

Watching them walking back one after another, Catherine felt uncomfortable in her eyes.

Sitz turned over and got off the horse. He came to Catherine's side and comforted her.

"As long as there is a war, it is inevitable that people will die. There is not much we can do but give them pensions so that these families can survive this difficult moment."

Catherine suppressed her sadness and said, "I understand..."

At this time, three figures separated from the crowd and came to Sitz's side.

"Brother!"

The childish voice sounded from beside the two of them, pulling Catherine out of her grief.

Sitz turned around and realized it was his little brother and sisters.

He smiled and said: "Oude, have you listened to your mother?"

The boy said proudly: "Of course, brother, and I haven't missed you during this time."

Sitz hugged his body, touched his delicate hair, and said softly: "You did a good job. Brother will buy you good things when he gets back."

"Really? That's great!"

"Brother, what about us?" Two girls' voices sounded in Sitz's ears.

It turned out to be his two sisters, looking at Sitz and Oded with some jealousy.

Sitz smiled and opened his arms, hugging the two of them.

"How could big brother forget you? Don't worry, you will too."

Catherine stood aside and looked at the scene of family reunion with a somewhat envious expression. She had been an orphan since she was a child and had lived in Eagle Castle since she became an adult. She had never experienced the feeling of family at all.
