After His Divorce， the Warrior Became an Assistant Professor at the Academy. 251

Chapter 251 – Side Story 7: With Ex-Wife Ashley at the Disaster Site (1)

***

Queen Isabella’s third year on the throne.

A peaceful afternoon with warm sunlight.

Camilton, a city adjacent to the royal capital.

The bell tower that stood tall in the center of the city suddenly rang like crazy.

Coo coo coo.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

People ran out screaming from inside the building.

“It’s an earthquake!”

“Ahh! It’s an earthquake!”

“Everyone, look out for the overhead and evacuate!

The ground of the entire city shook violently and all the buildings collapsed like dominoes, creating a huge dust storm.

“Kyaak, save me!”

In the scene of chaos, a city that had existed for hundreds of years collapsed in an instant.

The earthquake continued for an hour.

Two days later.

The earthquake that occurred in the city of Kemilton was quickly reported to the royal capital.

“The casualties are estimated to be approximately 7,000.”

“What kind of troops can be mobilized for rescue?”

“We are currently investigating. “I told all units to bring in rescue troops little by little.”

Emergency disaster response meeting held by Queen Isabella.

The queen looked down at the map placed on her round table with a serious expression.
A wide area was damaged by the earthquake, causing considerable damage to the kingdom.

Even the plains where grains grew densely were damaged by this disaster, which had an immediate impact on grain supply and demand.

“Inform each noble family of this fact and tell them to donate food and relief supplies. Additionally, tell each family to dispatch people to Camilton, go to the site, provide lodging, and actively care for the sad and hurt people. “I will pay special attention to who has been to the site and who has not.”

“Yes! Your Majesty!”

“And the general commander of the rescue site will be Grand Duke Kang Na-ru from now on. Everyone must follow his orders carefully and act quickly.”

“I… “The Grand Duke has not been seen since this morning.”

“I also went to the office a little while ago to ask you to attend the meeting, but you weren’t there.”

The queen smiled lightly at the questions of the ministers.

“My husband had already sensed the earthquake situation with the excellent sense of a warrior and set off to the scene even before the disaster report came in.”

Starting the next day, carriages of nobles lined up to go to the disaster site.

There were strict instructions from Queen Isabella, so if she herself, her wife, or her husband could not go, her children were sent instead.

“Sister, how many clothes did you pack? Someone said it needs to be at least two months.”

Inside the carriage heading to Kemilton.

Her half-sister Millia asked, looking at her Ashley.

“… “Ten sets.”

Ashley was fiddling with her faded family portrait, her eyes full of anticipation.
A family portrait depicting her and Naru, who was once her husband.

It was old and worn, and now the color had faded, as if the whole thing had been painted brown.

‘If you go there, you can meet with a reasonable excuse.’

Ashley smiled with satisfaction as she continued to look down at the portrait that was the size of her two palms combined.

***

The site of a historic disaster where the entire city collapsed.

“Take the vials! Hurry up!”

“Come this way! Move that over here!”

“Everyone gathers together! “I’m going to remove the rocks again today!”

“Yes!”

People were busy here and there.

Wizards use magic to lift and move the heavy remains of buildings, and soldiers are busy building temporary accommodations for the surviving citizens in a wide open space.

The priests set up an emergency clinic and were taking care of injured citizens.

But everyone is short of workers.

A city where 30,000 people lived was destroyed overnight, so the quickly dispatched manpower was not enough to handle the aftermath.

As a result, nobles were also deployed.

To rebuild the collapsed city, nobles, regardless of gender, were expected to take on various tasks such as construction, administration, medical care, cooking, waste disposal, transportation, production, etc.

The first noble carriage sent from the royal capital arrives today.

After a brief meeting with the commanders, Naru stopped by the lodgings.

“I’ll just wash my face and meet you.”

The accommodation was built with a tent.

There was an office space, a small conference room, a bathroom, and two rooms.

Because the partition was built with wooden planks, the soundproofing was not good.

“Whoa.”

It has been four days since the large-scale earthquake occurred.

Naru hasn’t been able to sleep even a wink.

The first day I arrived here, I was frantically trying to figure out the situation, and it wasn’t until today that I felt like things were finally sorted out.

His body quickly began to adapt to life in the barracks.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the academy for the time being.

Now, I had to put aside my teaching duties for a while and take responsibility for the disaster site directly as the queen’s consort.

In any case, each academy in the capital also announced a month-long closure and was scheduled to come here to volunteer a few days later.

“We need to quickly build temporary accommodations for thousands of people before winter comes… “

Because there are so many disaster victims, there is no suitable vacant land to build accommodations.

We had to quickly clear away the remains of the building to create a foundation.

Also, installing a toilet is a problem.

Hundreds of toilets also had to be built.

“However… “

Naru looked through the list of nobles who were first dispatched this time.

Although she had expected it to some extent, she never thought we would meet so soon…

[Two Rapone family volunteers – Ashley Kang (26) and Milia Rapone (21)]

His ex-wife was included in the list of noble volunteers.

Moreover, she did not use her last name, Rapone, to show off, but instead used Naru’s last name, ‘Gang’.
Does she do this because she knows she is here?

“… “I might have a headache in the future.”

When I meet him, I have to nag him to change his last name immediately.

***

Ten carriages filled with nobles who had come to provide disaster relief services entered the command camp.

Since they were nobles, the commander-in-chief had to come forward and personally say hello at least once.

“Thank you all for coming. We all have a historic mission… “

After giving a brief speech to the nobles lined up in a large space, he shook hands with each one of them.

“Count Lichne is here too.”

“You have to be able to stay still. “I will actively do my best for all the people.”

We moved around shaking hands one after another, and eventually we came to stand in front of Ashley.

My complexion brightened with joy.

Her eyes widened when she saw Naru.
It was an expression that could not control its emotions.

“Honey!”

When did you get divorced?

No matter how happy you are, you have to grasp reality.

She tried to hug her, but Naru quickly moved to her side.
She immediately raised her hand and made a gesture telling him not to come closer.

“Lady Ashley Rapone. Thank you for your hard work in coming a long way.”

He spoke clearly and deliberately emphasized his last name.

“Honey… Can’t I hug you? It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other.”

Still her honey, her honey, her distance. Naru’s brows furrowed slightly as he looked at her.
After clearing her throat, she spoke calmly.

“You will have a lot of trouble in the future. Please cheer up. “Okay then.”

“Go, don’t go! I didn’t say anything! “You have to talk to me!”

“Shh.”

Naru put her finger to her lips and gestured for her to be quiet.

“Let’s meet and talk later, just the two of us. Now people are staring.”

“Later? “Are you going to meet me later?”

“I have something to tell you. I’m waiting.”

“Okay! When are you going to meet me?”

“I’ll send someone separately.”

Ashley quickly calms down and is happy.

A bright smile bloomed again on her relieved lips.

“Hello. Tongue, brother-in-law… Should I call you that? Hehe, it’s awkward. Since her older sister is divorced, she should be called Grand Duke, right? Nice to meet you, Grand Duke. Ashley is her older sister’s younger sister, Milia. “I heard a lot.”

Milia Rapone.

Naru had also heard about the Rapone family’s circumstances, so he had a rough idea of ​​who she was.
When Heirger, his former father-in-law, went on a trip alone, he knew her as the daughter of a woman he met at a resort called Ris and remarried.
I met her for the first time today, and she looked pretty and lively.

It was completely different from Ashley’s younger sister, Serena, who died.

‘If I had a sister-in-law like this, would she have helped me when I was having a hard time? ? Then you didn’t get divorced, right?’

Naru suddenly had that thought.

“The future will be difficult. “Please be strong and work hard for the people.”

“Yes! I’ll work hard! See you often!”

“Have a nice day.”

Naru took her steps.
I can feel Ashley’s gaze continuing to look at him from behind.
Very hot.

I don’t want to fall.

It’s burdensome.

‘Stop looking at me. The whole world knows that you and I are divorced, but if you keep looking at me like that, they will misunderstand. I will meet you quietly later and tell you to stop using Mr. Kang’s last name and remind you not to act like a married couple.’

Naru thought so, but…

In fact, he was secretly attracted to the sexual charm of the word ‘ex-wife’ by instinct.

Ex-wife.

At one point, I didn’t want to see her because I felt betrayed, but seeing her again after a long time gave me a fresh feeling, like meeting a new woman.

A touching memory came to mind when he just saw Ashley, and at the same time, he remembered the shape of her breasts and the taste of her pussy, and Naru also knew that the stuff in his pants had become slightly heavy.

But I did my best to ignore it.

No matter how bad she is, you can’t touch her…
I took hold of her heart.
