Adopting Disaster

Dolores (3)

Reed and Dolores walked awkwardly together.

It was no different from walking together yesterday, but awkwardness prevailed over comfort.

As of last night, they were no longer just lovers.

Could it be that their relationship was still awkward?

It was even difficult to make eye contact.

"It's really awkward."

Dolores was the first to speak.

"I know, right?"

"After getting engaged, breaking up, and getting engaged again, I'm not sure if we'll break up again when we fight."

Although she knew it was a joke, it was hard to take it lightly.

"Should we just get married then?"

Reed boldly suggested.

Dolores looked happy, but shook her head.

"No, not now."

"Why?"

"There's Rosaria. Be good to Rosaria. Now is the time for that."

She was at an age where she was curious and eager to learn.

Dolores didn't want to awkwardly insert herself as a mother figure there.

Her familiar sister and teacher were the ones who should be there for her now.

"By the way, what kind of children do you want once we're married?"

"What kind do I want?"

"You know, like how many daughters and sons."

"Umm...."

Reed had never thought deeply about it, so he was at a loss.

Dolores, who had brought it up, felt embarrassed as time passed and scratched her cheek.

"This kind of talk is so strange. I used to think about it a lot when I was young... If you're embarrassed, you don't have to answer."

As Dolores was thinking about changing the topic of conversation, Reed opened his mouth.

"...I don't need anything else, just a daughter."

"A daughter?"

"Since I've raised one daughter already, I don't think there will be any problem raising another one. I just want to have a daughter."

Reed firmly held Dolores' hand.

Dolores smiled with her eyes and clung to his shoulder.

"Don't you think Rosaria is a good child?"

"Rosaria is good, yes. But your daughter will definitely be as gentle as you."

"Who says I'm gentle? I'm a cunning fox-like woman."

"Really?"

"Do you think the Ice Queen of Wallinexists for nothing?"

"That will become history now."

Reed looked up.

He saw the tower made of blue, Wallin's Tower.

"We should go."

"Yep."

"How was your trip today?"

"It was great."

Dolores looked up, holding both of Reed's hands.

"I wish time had stopped."

At Dolores' words, Reed lightly kissed her lips.

Unintentionally, Dolores put her hand on her chest.

They had done so much yesterday, but her heart still raced.

It was an excitement she didn't want to forget.

"I'll go back."

"Finish well."

"Okay."

Reed turned and moved first.

After taking three steps, he looked back with a feeling of regret.

He saw her looking down at him as he moved further away.

As their eyes met, Dolores was the first to raise and wave her hand.

She felt the same regret.

Dolores left Wallin's Tower.

The next tower master was a person named Frida Jade.

Reed knew who he was.

In the story of “Disaster 7”, after suppressing Ludis Grancia Jade, he became the new tower master.

Although his magic skills were lower than Dolores', his knowledge of Wallin's Tower made him more adept at leading the tower than Dolores when she first started.

However, it was not easy to catch up to Dolores' status.

No one looked for the missing Ludis.

Posters stating that he had gone missing were put up, but they were covered with malicious phrases like "Traitor!" and "Worse than a dog!" until his figure was unrecognizable.

The Grancia Kingdom erased him as if he had never existed.

Even for a royal born with the bloodline, joining hands with the demons, the enemies of all humankind, was an unforgivable matter.

As the activities of the Eternal Church noticeably decreased, the demons that had been slowly encroaching on the land withdrew.

It was a miracle created by a single flower.

No one could have imagined that cultivating stonecrop would be more effective than the actions of the Althea Church trying to eradicate the roots of heretics.

Dolores, who had been born a workshop magician and became a tower magician, returned to the academy where she had graduated.

No one opposed the kind, diligent, and talented girl becoming a teaching assistant.

After she arrived, Escolleia became even more active.

Dean Anton declared that he would open the lectures he used to give only occasionally every year from now on.

"Teacher! Are you really going to be an assistant professor at Escolleia?"

She asked Dolores as soon as she visited the tower.

"Not an assistant professor, but a teaching assistant. The two are very different."

"Still, that means you could become a professor someday! I heard it's difficult to even become a teaching assistant at Escolleia!"

"That's how it turned out."

"Then, when I enter Escolleia, can I receive your guidance?"

"I'm not sure about that."

"My father said that Dolores Jade is a talented woman and will undoubtedly become a full professor within 3 years!"

With her status as the dean's favorite student and her experience as a tower master in Wallin's Tower, her rapid promotion was already confirmed.

"I still have a lot to learn, so I'll take it step by step. And now I'm not Dolores Jade anymore."

"Oh, I'm sorry!"

Yuria immediately apologized.

She made more mistakes in her speech than usual, perhaps because she was more excited.

Now that she had left Wallin's Tower, she had to give up the Jade surname.

"May I ask what I should call you as my teacher now?"

"Well..."

Dolores hesitated, feeling a bit embarrassed.

However, it was a matter that would soon become a reality.

So she proudly announced.

"Now I'm Dolores Adeleheights."

"The Adeleheights family! ...Wait, Adele...heights?"

Yuria, who had been happy, felt something was off.

It was definitely a surname she had heard before.

And from a very close place.

Yuria turned her head.

What she saw was a white-haired girl, Rosaria.

She smiled brightly and said.

"Teacher is going to be my new mom!"
