The Sage of Einar

Einar, who was lying on his bed, felt a strange sensation on his face, so he opened his eyes and could see how his little baby Katherine looked at him with a smile.

At that moment, little Katherine reached out her hand and caressed her father's face while laughing.

Einar just smiled and leaned over to kiss his daughter on the forehead.

"Thanks for waking dad up, Katherine."

With great care Einar held his daughter in his hands and got out of bed, later using a blanket, he tied her to his chest and went to his office to work.

Einar had been doing that with his babies for the last few days, as he was quite stressed, and having his children around was relaxing for him.

When he got to the office, he could see Norma and Laura playing with some wooden cubes.

"Good afternoon kids, I hope it didn't take too long.."

Norma shook her head and looked at her father with a smile. "You only slept an hour dad, I think little Katherine didn't like seeing you sleep."

Einar just sighed and stroked his daughter's red hair. "I guess she's just as stubborn as her father, but she has the patience of her mother.

She will be a very good woman in the future, but it is time to work. "

Einar then walked to his desk, from where he took a bottle of apple juice.

Very carefully, he put the bottle on little Katherine, who grabbed it with both hands and began to drink the apple juice.

Seeing his daughter happy with her apple juice, he set to work on the design of the marine mine.

To begin with, he had solved the problem of the amount of mercury fulminate and dynamite.

To destroy a strong wood, he would not spend more than 100 grams of mercury fulminate and almost 300 grams of dynamite.

The operation would be similar to that of the mines at the beginning of the 20th century, only smaller

They would have a total of six iron peaks which would have mercury fulminate inside.

When a wooden ship passes over them, the mercury fulminate in jars would be destroyed, causing the dynamite to explode. 

The blast will be powerful enough to remove some of the wood from the ships and make an opening that will render the ships useless.

So knowing all this, Einar set out to design the last parts of the product process that would use glass and iron.

'If my calculations are correct, the marine mines will have a useful life of only 4 months before the iron begins to let in water.

So it should be enough time to be able to create the sea mines to destroy the Crusader ships.

With some 20,000 mines in the entire southern zone and some buoys in the sea to mark dangerous places, I think that there would be more defense insurance against the enemy landing.

What I am sure of is that it will revolutionize the way war is waged, so they will not have the opportunity to do something against us.

I just hope that the highest pontiff in Rome is not such an idiot as to be sending crusades every year to be able to win something. '

Einar kept working hard when he saw that his little daughter Katherine was already falling asleep, so he took the bottle from her.

In order to accommodate her in his arms so that he could sing her a lullaby, it was at that moment that the office door opened and Kassia entered.

Seeing her daughters playing on the mat and Einar singing a song, she could only smile, so she entered and sat on the sofa.

Einar, seeing his wife, walked towards her and sat down next to her.

"These quiet moments with our children are a window of escape from all the worry that I have above me.

Seeing their carefree little faces free of any kind of problems makes me feel that everything I do must be for them.

Although if we look closely at her, I think she has your whole face. "

Kassia just laughed and hugged Einar's shoulder while stroking her daughter's hair. "That's a trap because little Katherine has your hair.

Not only does she all your children have your red hair, no one has been able to inherit anything other than your red hair. "

Einar just shrugged. "It wasn't my fault. That has to do with my family genes.

I guess the gene for red hair will continue until it meets a stronger gene for another hair color.

But we will not be able to do that. It will depend on our descendants and their actions as time goes by.

For the moment, let us only enjoy this little moment of tranquility that this time of peace offers us, for the moment when we have to fight is dangerously close.

Remember to be in the imperial palace at all times, as it will be the least dangerous place during the war.

I will be on the ships to face the fleet that outnumbers us. I will wage a naval battle that will be remembered for centuries to come.

A battle where the superior armament could win over the enemy's numbers. If something comes to pass, Laisa will take control until it appears.

My father will also help, so you do not have to worry, because I am not going to die in the war.

Because you and my children need me to be with you, Kassia, you have to be strong during labor.

Felipa is learning with me how to perform a cesarean section correctly. It is not something simple, but with what we have been learning, we can guarantee your life.

There is no need to risk a natural birth when you can do a cesarean section. It may be painful, but you must be strong.

For your care and that of the baby, when I return with victory, things will be better for us.

Well, we can enjoy a period of peace with which we will grow to one more, because no one will dare to attack us in the short term.

When the time comes, we can launch an invasion to the south and be able to conquer all the British Isles to be able to take revenge on the stupid Ludovico.

I'll show him that calling you a whore will be his downfall. "
