Chapter 104 – Episode 104 – Interlude Before War, a Suspicious Baby and a Warrior Couple
* Interlude before the war, the suspicious baby and the hero couple
Tangelo finally got a happy ending by marrying a warrior.
A lucky man who once knew the darkness of his family, got caught up in a fight with the Demon King’s army, and although his territory was now in shambles, he somehow survived thanks to Gara.
There is Noah, a dark elf maid who has made mistakes in the past, but still faithfully follows him, a warrior with genius talent, and a child born with an unknown power. Now, once this war is over, he will be able to live a happy life without worrying about anyone. With this marriage, the warrior’s castle will be exposed, and he will proudly make it his own. He won’t be lonely at night, so he should have happily had pure love training sex today as well.
“Then, I was captured by a strange woman~!”
“For our miserable future!”
“”Cheers!””
─Ta-da!
He is currently living in the royal palace because he has lost his residence, and after clinking glasses with someone, he gets angry without mercy. It would be a good time to sleep with his wife late at night, but he is leaving the beautiful blonde beauty, a woman who is in the prime of her body to the point of being erotic, and having dinner and drinks with a sinister man who looks just like a fox.
Tangelo, the warrior’s husband.
The opponent is Alex, the contractor of the erotic dragon Reina.
He wasn’t at the wedding, and he’s not the kind of man who should be in this situation, but there’s an upcoming war, and on top of that, there’s an assassination… In order to prevent Alex from being captured and used as a tool for blackmail during the war, the idiot who turned into a dragon brought him here on his own, but somehow these two men had been seeing each other for some time.
“Yes, it was good at first. I’m a man too, so I can act confidently when everyone is watching, right? So I said, ‘I’ll cover up everything that happened to you.’… Hehe… When I think about it now, how embarrassing it is… In front of everyone. I even cracked my dick~ Ugh… “
“I wasn’t able to participate at the time. But from hearing the story, I think it’s quite possible to say that it was like having his woman taken away. Moreover, since it’s a wedding that only happens once in a long life, don’t be pretentious. I was young too. I’ve been bluffed in front of my father several times… Tangelo, you’re still young, it’s such a mistake, everyone will laugh it off.”
It’s a story about the torture of his dead father, Lawrence, but there’s no way Tangelo knew that, and he burst into tears at his vague remark.
“That’s not it, bro! But even so, our idiot wife forced torture on her as soon as she returned without even noticing it!”
“… Is that one?”
“It seems like you’re used to torturing, but this was my first time! No, what kind of man in this world would gouge out his wife’s eyes right after the wedding? What I want is a sweet, sweet newlywed life, not a bloody, gory honeymoon!!! “
“Tangelo… You’re having a hard time…”
“Ugh… Ugh… Ugh…”
After putting his forehead on her table and drinking another glass, Alex patted Tangelo’s shoulder and comforted him. As there were no normal people around, the behavior of Alex, who was my same-sex brother and was about the same age as my older brother, must have touched my heart, so my lips protruded.
“These days… I’m just relieved that I’ve repaid everything I’ve suffered so far… So I’m relieved that I don’t have anything to write about… That’s why you invited me on a date this morning, but you’re preparing for war, and it’s like I’m leaving my child in charge… I can’t help but vent my anger…”
“Of course, thanks to you, it’s been a hard time… I’m also backed up with territory work, and since I’m related to our stupid dragon, I need to be protected, so not only did I exchange a letter with the king I’ll never have a relationship with for the rest of my life, but I even had an audience with him recently. That damn bitch. I am thankful that the story went smoothly thanks to all the unnecessary fluttering, so I had no choice but to reveal everything I had been hiding so far, but acting as one pleases without seeking other people’s opinions is completely unforgivable. If I’m not careful, I’m saying it’s all wrong.”
“Why do you think the surrounding women are so opinionated?”
“There’s a big part of him acting arbitrarily rather than being strong. It might not be something I can say as someone whose life and country are being protected, but as a man involved, I want to say something.”
Gulp gurgle…
“Hmm, in that sense, if she’s a hero, she’s a good woman. Indeed, I don’t like that kind of torture, but once you get used to it, it’s no big deal. If you think of it as a cuteness that you don’t show to others and only show to your husband, and realize that it’s a marital act, you can accept it as love. Isn’t it there?”
“Just because a couple enjoys the torture of gouging out their eyes and grinding their tongues doesn’t make it an act of affection.”
“That’s a problem that can be resolved due to family circumstances. As I just said, the overwriting process is over. Now, if you say you don’t like it, I won’t force you.”
“That’s right. I have a lot to say, but the broad outlines are just as you said.”
“… And then the rain flies.”
Gulp, gulp! Gulp!
I don’t drink as much as Tangelo, but I was intoxicated by the expressionless face of the fox. If you put your hand on the snack and calm your mind, you will flutter as you please as if it is your turn.
“No matter what, I don’t think I can hold that crazy bitch’s leash…”
“Ah… Mr. Raina.”
“I know you heard, but she said the contract doesn’t work. I wrote a contract to her without knowing anything and used her as a slave, but now that I think about it, it was a ridiculous farce. This, that, everything she did so far was just because she wanted to commit suicide. Only pervert dragon years…”
“What happened to the contract you mentioned last time, tying you up for life and all that? So, that’s why you were planning to turn the territory into a drug field and a city of desire lined with prostitutes, right?”
“It looks like he’s responding seriously, but I don’t know how long that will last… I dare say that although he may act quietly according to my plan at first, he won’t stay for the rest of his life. Moreover, even if he confesses that he’s in love with me now, you can’t believe he’s not sexually attracted to me. ‘Were you looking at me with love?’ Looks like they will sell the same thing.”
“I think it’s a compliment considering common sense, but it’s an insult to Raina.”
“Because she’s such a ridiculous bitch that if you confess, it’s certain that she’ll get dumped, but on the other hand, if you look at her with lust-filled eyes, she’ll be happy. If you leave her alone, she’ll either be dead or imprisoned in some ridiculous way in a place you can’t reach. Annoying. Year…”
When he drank again, Tangelo, who was drunk, patted his shoulder and comforted him.
“I heard you also fell in love with a very strange woman!”
“I don’t think that’s what you would say.”
“Just like you said, the hero still has cuteness~! Compared to Raina-san! Ahahaha!”
There was nothing to refute.
Tangelo laughed vulgarly and Alex lowered his head gloomily when he heard the sound of the room they were renting for drinking being opened arbitrarily.
“…!! Ah… What, you were surprised.”
The situation was like this. She tried to respond seriously even though she was under the influence of alcohol because there was no guarantee that Wangseong would be safe, but her shoulders relaxed. The sound of a sleeping baby’s breathing mingled with Tangelo’s light sigh, and the blonde beauty who brought him focused her gaze as if scolding her husband for not returning to her room.
“I thought he wouldn’t come back for a while… The invasion is in two days. Do you think it’s more important to leave his wife lonely and have a drink with her?”
“After you turned down a morning date…”
“A man gets upset over something like that… Tangelo, are you a kid?”
“Don’t say that! I’m still young too! Even though I’m married!”
“That’s not what I meant… Ah, my husband is being rude to me for being late at night. I’m a hero. I’m the one holding Reina’s leash, right?”
‘Snood… Are there rumors spreading that I am that kind of person? … ‘
He must have felt dizzy when the warrior called him a nonsensical title, but even though he answered politely, he seemed to have lost motivation. She’s drunk and doesn’t look like she wants to talk to the woman she was just drinking with. She only shared her greetings and did not talk about her personal life, but her child, whom she was carefully holding, caught her eye and then melted into the background.
“What’s going on here?”
“I told you just now. I came to look for him because he didn’t come back. Look, Brave was lonely because his dad didn’t come back.”
“… Lonely?”
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a peacefully sleeping face. Not only does she bury her face in her mother’s chest and breathe heavily, but her aura is different from that of a normal child.
“When I think about it, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Brave cry. It was like that when you were busy preparing for war, and you were taking care of it with a nanny, it was like that with Noah, and so am I… Even though it’s a warrior’s child, there’s something about it that doesn’t seem clear.”
“I don’t think it’s something you can say to your child?”
“It’s not that it’s weird, it’s just that he’s different from an ordinary child… No, is that it? Thanks to him, he was able to meet the schedule requested by the hero, but isn’t that why he’s such a bad child…?”
“What is that tone~! Aren’t you already jealous just because a boy was born?!”
“That can’t be possible… I want to love my child because he is my child…”
Tangelo held out her hand. She tried to touch her sleeping child Brave’s cheek and her child’s hand shot out in response.
─Tap!
“…”
“… It’s like this.”
He cried, rubbing the back of her hand as if it hurt the area where she hit him. A child who continues to sleep in her mother’s arms without even opening her eyes. However, she refuses her father’s touch and even slaps her hand away as she pleases… For some reason, Tangelo is not the only one who has a bad feeling.
“My blood is thick… So, even at this age, he is very strong… So, I am certain that he is my child… Because of the circumstances of this pregnancy, he may have been born with an aversion to men… At least I think so…”
“That’s the hero’s guess.”
“Even if it’s a guess, it has to be otherwise… Otherwise, we have no choice but to draw a harsh conclusion…”
“…”
It’s the same for heroes who end up crying. If she does not protect and protect, she will reach the conclusion that she will kill or abandon the child she saved at best. Tangelo also knew that, so she did not go any further and smiled bitterly as she continued to caress the back of her hand that had been hit by her son.
“That’s right, she might like women like the warrior said. This guy smiles so happily when he’s with her nannies or in Noah’s arms.”
“Tangelo…”
“I’m sorry for coming in late. The drinking party is coming to an end. I’ll say a few words and then go back, so please warm up the blanket first.”
“I’m sorry… It was a quick fight, but you didn’t come back, so I interfered without knowing…”
“I said it’s okay. It’s my fault for not imagining what it would be like to be a hero.”
Tangelo took her lips first and kissed her, then the warrior came to take her lips, and after sharing their tongues, they soon separated.
“Come quickly…”
“Yes.”
After falling, one word was enough. The warrior goes back out with her child, and Tangelo, who sits in her seat, becomes depressed. Alex, who had assimilated into her background, returned like a chameleon and took another sip, her face shaking off her intoxication, before she chattered.
“It’s your child. Even if something unwanted happens.”
“I know.”
“… Don’t you think that something may have been crafted into that child?”
“You can see it just now. Both I and the hero have already made up our minds. Even if I am criticized by others, even if it is my brother who is right in front of me, I will gladly accept it for the sake of the child and the hero.”
At Tangelo’s words, she closed her eyes, nodded, and kicked her in the foot.
“Aya?!”
“I’ll take it back exactly as I said before. You, too, fell for this annoying bitch. Her cowardly man dated her and fell in love with her, to the point where he took her lion’s heart into his hands.”
“Still, I don’t think it’s as good as Raina…”
“… Yours is more annoying. It’s better to date a cool, idiot dragon than to date a woman who forces you to say such annoying things.”
“Ugh… No matter how big brother you are, that’s a bit… But Hero is better…”
“No, absolutely not. It’s Raina.”
“I can’t back down from this…”
We said we would be back soon, but it turned into a battle of pride, and we talked for quite a while. Even if their voices got a little louder, no fists were thrown, and their relationship was more like pointing fingers at each other. When Tangelo suddenly stood up thinking of the hero, he turned to his back and warned him.
“I won’t reveal anything about the child, so don’t let it hurt me.”
“I think it’s already too late. If anything happens to my brother, Reina will turn her back.”
“… I never thought that that idiot would do anything just because it hurt me. It’s all just speculation.”
“When you say that, it seems like the relationship between you and Reina is beyond simple and there is no affection… I know that you are following him, but I think he will cut it off right away if you don’t have a dick, so it seems like a bleak relationship that only looks good on the surface…”
“… Are you jealous?”
“Not at all…”
Tangelo wanted a loving family, and Alex was quick to point out that he couldn’t understand such a loving family, so it didn’t really suit her relationship with her older brother. Nevertheless, as men in similar situations, they parted ways on a good note, and as he remained alone in the place where Tangelo had left, sipping alcohol, he came to one conclusion.
“Okay, let’s run away!”
Refreshing laughter.
Truly a fox’s smile.
Alex was convinced when he saw Brave, the son of a warrior and Tangelo.
‘That’s a bomb that will overturn the royal capital. If I were an enemy, I would absolutely use them. Above all, there was a lot of circumstantial evidence that even I, who had just heard the story, could know… My life is precious to me, and I feel sorry for Tangelo, but should I let him be protected somewhere else until the war ends?’
At least this man ran away because he thought the royal capital was not the place for him.
The sensor he saw shined brightly, and he later learned that this was the best choice.
