But even though Curieta had mixed feelings at that time, she was still able to persevere. After all, Noxus was a man who paid attention to what you sacrificed. The reason they were groomed was because the three of them had passed the General's test and had the courage to assassinate General Noxus. That was why she naively thought that the Empire intended to select the best children from this poor village and those who survived would be heavily groomed by the Empire.
But she was wrong.
The Empire had no intention of grooming the surviving children among the cannon fodders. Even if they survived, they would be immediately assigned to the next battle or join the ranks of the adults to deal with enemies that they couldn't handle. All of these made her full of doubts. The indifference of the people above to the soldiers and the possible misinterpretation of the orders made her very worried. This kind of worry reached its peak when they faced a Bay Town filled with many experts.
"Curetta, did you know? We have new weapons. "
Curetta, who was still traumatized by the whereabouts of the children, gazed at Delius who was as happy as if he got a big toy. Then, she lowered her head and continued with her work. But at this moment, the door of her tent fell and the light dimmed instantly. Then, a familiar presence attacked her from behind and a pair of rough hands wrapped around her.
"Don't ignore me. It wasn't easy for us to be together and we don't have to eat sand in Shurima anymore. Don't you miss me?"
As they weren't at the frontline, Curetta didn't put on her breastplate. She wore a uniform for convenience and she could clearly feel the discomfort of the steel gauntlets squirming on her body. Her bra was slightly wet from the movement of her lover. She couldn't help but think of her children. They hadn't been weaned yet, but she was already accompanying their father on the battlefield. For a moment, she had the urge to tell this mischievous man that he was already a father. But after thinking about the anxious situation in Ionia, she held back the urge. After all, it wasn't auspicious to tell her husband that she had given birth to her children on the battlefield. Besides, this matter wasn't that simple.
"I hope that the war can end soon so that we can live together for a period of time. As you know, we're getting old. It's time to think about our children."
She didn't want her children's father and mother to be unable to accompany their parents for an entire year. After all, she grew up as an orphan and knew how much children yearned for their parents. That was why she wanted to have a good talk with Delius after the war ended. After all, they weren't young anymore and the war that he was participating in was getting more dangerous. It was time for him to retire.
But because he saw his lover and his commanding officer was kind enough to give him a mission that was equivalent to a holiday, he cherished the time he had with his lover. Even though he wouldn't really do anything, just hugging Curetta made him feel an unimaginable sense of security and joy. Why did he work so hard in the war? Of course, it was to let his lover be proud of him. And what could be better than the glory of conquering the entire world to let his lover be proud of him?
He had imagined countless times that his wife would call him the Conqueror of the World when she told their children about his great achievements. Even if it was just for this scene, he would still lead Noxus to conquer the world and leave his legend in the world! Their childhood promise would be fulfilled perfectly. Yes, when they were very young, when they didn't have enough to eat, Curetta, De Levin, and Delius had promised to save the world.
That was why he laughed at Curetta's words and didn't mind. In his opinion, Curetta was just a little sad because of the heavy casualties. She had always been so kind and that was why he loved her so much. But it didn't matter. As long as they won a few battles, as long as they could make Noxus stronger and further their career and ideals, Curetta would be happy again.
He had done this countless times, so he felt that this time was no exception. Besides, he had another way to comfort her.
He rubbed his face on his lover's neck and greedily smelled her scent. Even though it was mixed with dust, smoke, and a faint smell of blood, he could still smell Curetta's unique fragrance. Strangely, he felt that the fragrance on Curieta's body was even stronger this time. There was also another pleasant smell that made him feel very close to her.
"Huh? I'm Noxus's hand! My dear! Have you ever seen anyone fight without a hand? "
He purposely said this by Curetta's collar. His hot breath spread along Curetta's back and chest. Curetta's face stiffened. She put down her pen as if she surrendered and completely leaned into her lover's embrace. She stretched out her hands to hug her lover's head and felt the stubble that hadn't been shaved for a long time rubbing against her skin.
"Even if you can only be intimate with me occasionally, is that okay?"
Even though she was already the mother of two children, Curetta knew that they were still young. If they wanted to, they could have more children. She didn't want to tell Delius before because they were too young. If people knew that Delius had children, it would undoubtedly be a blow to his reputation. After all, other than the occasional vacation where he could spend time with her, he had been fighting in all kinds of battlefields. If he suddenly had two children, it would be hard for others not to think too much about it. And as someone who had always supported his career, she could only hide something like this from him.
However, it was a pity that she couldn't witness the birth of her children. So when Delius kissed her neck, she had already thought of how to compensate Delius for not being able to witness the birth of his children.
As long as she had a few more children with him, she would be able to make up for this regret to the greatest extent, right?
"Ah, Curetta, you know, haven't we always been working hard for this dream? To make Noxus the strongest country in the world. "
Delius was a little embarrassed because when his hand reached into Curetta's clothes, Curetta pulled his ear hard to remind him that he was still wearing the steel gauntlet. At this moment, he finally had the time to answer Curieta's question. However, his answer reminded Curetta of the children of Noxus who died in vain. The moment she heard the word 'strongest', the corpses of the children in front of her instantly turned into the appearance of her children.
Thus, she immediately pushed her lover away, and the smile on her face disappeared in an instant. She looked at her confused lover and slowly said something that made him stunned.
"What if I say that it's no longer my dream?"
For a moment, Delius thought that he had gone crazy.
