Chapter 499 – The Elf in the House (3)
===============================
El, who was admitted to the hospital due to the pressure of the people around her, applied for discharge as soon as she could not overcome the frustration.
All wounds have healed.
The same was true of internal injuries sustained during the fierce battle.
She had no reason to be in the hospital.
El complained that it was a useless effort, but she was soon relieved by Yushin’s hospital visit. It was because she had received her ‘words’ from the man she had a crush on, along with her kind concerns.
‘W-would you do anything for me… ! I never fought Grid for the price, but I never thought that the luck of a genius would roll in like this!’
Unlimited wishes.
She was indeed a luxurious reward.
She accepted the promise.
Obviously Yushin will try to fulfill his promise.
If so, what kind of request should I make?
If she had been a belligerent character, she would have made the outrageous demand that the marriage papers be stamped immediately. Unfortunately, however, El was very far from that category.
‘Should I ask you to go on a picnic to the garden where the cherry blossoms are in full bloom… Go, look at the scenery together and hold hands warmly.’
He had no dating experience.
Of course, I had to be very passive.
Love with the opposite sex?
Ever since the loss of her beloved sister, she has spent her years focusing only on becoming stronger.
Because she lived through years of bleak loneliness, dating with the opposite sex was very unfamiliar to her. She was also, unfortunately, all the more so because the person she had a crush on was her pupil’s husband.
“Master?”
“Yes… ?! What did you say?”
The beautiful high elf with her coveted blonde hair tilted her head and called.
To which Elle reacted in amazement.
She had her mind wandering for a moment.
She was on a walk with her beloved pupil.
“I’m sorry, Master. You must be very tired.”
“No no, it’s okay.”
Maybe Master is trying hard to hide his fatigue out of concern for the worries of those around him.
Ardena’s face was filled with deep sorrow.
She was an infinitely admirable disciple.
Seeing Ardena genuinely worried about her teacher, El was burdened with a heavy sense of guilt.
‘Kuk! To think that I was such a shameless woman… ! Her beloved disciple cares for her wholeheartedly!’
Are yearning
None other than the disciple’s husband.
It’s a brutal thing indeed.
She resented herself for having cherished a love that would rage against the heavens.
Every time Ardena showed her respect and cared for her meticulously, her heart sank. If she knew the truth, she would surely be despised by her one and only disciple.
“Thank you very much for protecting Yushin. I feel like I owe Master’s favor every time… On the one hand, I am really sorry.”
“You don’t have to worry about that.”
El laughed softly and stroked Ardena’s hair.
Like a mother stroking her daughter’s hair, her tender motherly love overflowed from her tender touch.
Ardena blushed in her face.
And she smiled bashfully and nodded her head.
Facing her beloved Master’s smile, she recalled the nostalgic past. Tears suddenly filled her eyes at her unchanging benevolence.
“Since it is the work of a beloved disciple, of course I have to step in. And I owe Mr. Gilead a debt heavier than eons.”
“… Yes.”
Yushin lost one of his arms while fighting against the tyrant of Vulcanus Kingdom to protect his master.
Did I forget about it for a while?
On his return, he showed ungratefulness to his husband.
On the subject who left with a spirited appearance, he welcomed a new wife locally. In response, she poured out her resentment while accusing her husband of betrayal.
‘Yoo-shin lost his arm while fighting to protect Master… But I was swept away by petty jealousy and poured out my resentment against Yushin. It’s really unseemly behavior.’
Yushin is a lifelong benefactor who saved Master’s life.
Nevertheless,
He himself could barely overcome his jealousy and poured out his resentment.
He deserved to be pointed at by him as an evil wife.
Even if the cheating husband kept bringing in new women, he had to accept them. He owes him a favor he will never be able to repay.
“But I poured out my resentment against Yushin. Yushin is a benefactor who gave his life to save Master.”
“… Ardena.”
It was still a shame that the husband who secretly cheated on her.
But I decided to cover it anyway.
Yushin Gilead is a loving husband who promised to be with her for the rest of her life.
‘Ardena, you’ve grown a lot.’
It was truly admirable to see Ardena reflecting on her past and feeling her responsibility.
Not only the body, but also the mind is nearing completion.
When did you grow up so fast?
Elle let out a gentle smile from her, feeling the elation of her otherworldly feelings.
“Master, can I ask you one thing without shame? It is really, really important.”
“Of course.”
“I hope you continue to protect Yushin.”
“Yes? Mr. Gilead… ?”
As Ardena bowed her head, she begged earnestly.
It was an unexpected request.
At that, El couldn’t contain her doubts.
But he never refused her request.
Because it was a request from a disciple she loved.
Moreover, since it was a request to protect the safety of the man she truly admired, she accepted it without hesitation.
“I will protect Mr. Gilead no matter what. Even if it causes seven or eight sufferings. The beast of lust will never take Mr. Gilead.”
He put his hand on her chest.
She swore by the name of a warrior.
She made a promise to herself, embodying her pride and honor.
I will protect her even at the cost of her life.
To protect the happiness of her beloved disciple, she swore to herself. And to protect the man she secretly adored, she carved her oath once again.
“Really… Thank you very much, Master.”
Are you guessing?
The fact that Master, who regards her like heaven, is single-mindedly admiring her husband.
Of course I don’t know.
Unless you have a knack for seeing through the inner thoughts…
Ardena, who wanted to protect her beloved husband somehow, made her mistake that she would regret all her life. However, from the point of view of El, who is very proud of her unrequited love, it was a chance that she was a genius.
Romance of a priest who loves a man.
A love triangle surrounded by shame and adultery has finally begun to be triggered in earnest.
* * *
As soon as Grid stepped down, Yushin immediately returned to the Valencian Forest.
Are the children okay?
It was to check it directly with the naked eye.
Fortunately, all of the loved ones were unharmed.
“Paa!”
“Beeeee!”
When the father, who had been absent for a long time, returned, the children burst into laughter waving their hands.
I was worried that the children would become depressed due to a long-term separation, but… Like the children of Ardena and Allen, they were always strong and healthy.
“Allen!”
“The flirt has returned with his ironclad skin on his face.”
Her husband, who committed an unscrupulous affair with a local wife, returned without an apology.
Allen glared at her flirt with a high-pitched voice. Her mood was very cold, as if she would immediately send her husband to the operating table and order her to be neutered.
“I’m glad you’re safe. Thank you for protecting the children.”
“… Hmm.”
Yushin hugged Allen while giving her a look of relief.
Thank god.
I’m so glad…
There was a pathetic shaking of relief in his voice.
Allen said she tried hard to maintain her brusque appearance, but she failed. It is because her hatred melted away with the warm whispers of her beloved husband.
“I really hate my brother! Cheating every time… !”
“It was force majeure.”
“And after being caught, he keeps making excuses.”
“…”
That’s right.
So it’s hard to refute.
She had to keep her mouth shut at the sound of Allen’s voice.
“I-I won’t forgive you this time!”
“It’s okay though. As long as you and the children are all right.”
Unleashing her raging jealousy, she violently tugged at Yushin’s sleeve of her dress. And she let out a furious cry as if she was about to bite her neck.
Hate.
I hate it so much.
She waited day and night, worrying and worrying…
Because I didn’t know that kind of heart and had an affair.
Wouldn’t that be innocent enough to kill?
But in the end, he forgave her flirtation.
It was hard to keep her hatred, knowing that she genuinely cared about her family. She met his face, which had become solemn with relief, and Allen gave her a bitter smile and responded to her hug.
“Gya! Gyaaa!”
“Ehehe! Meow! Meow!”
Bell and Ni-sama suddenly became noisy.
It was because she faced a woman with her red hair that was striding towards her.
As if she found a new toy,
The children burst into laughter with twinkling eyes.
“Have you ever penetrated Polymorph… Amazing.”
The guest who visited without a message was Lemeria.
Lemeria exclaimed in admiration as she looked at the children who immediately realized that she was a dragon transformed into a human. And even though she knew it, she had to marvel once more at the children’s courage to laugh innocently.
“…”
Arlen, who witnessed the red dragon, shuts her mouth.
And strangled her husband mercilessly.
“I will kill you! I will really kill you!! Did you get a new girl after being scolded like that?! Besides, this time it’s a dragon!! Now you’re not satisfied with your long ears, and you’ve even turned a lizard into a concubine——!!”
“Khehe! This is a misunderstanding… Kehehe!!”
Die.
Really die this time
Aaaaa-.
Superhuman strength gripped his neck.
Yoo-shin, who returned home to check on his family’s safety, was in danger of being killed by his wife. It was the worst situation in which his life was at risk.
“Hey, you’re a concubine?! Displeased! Do you think I, the daughter of the Dragon Lord, will mix flesh with a lower creature!!”
Hearing Allen’s rant, Lemeria immediately went into a fit of rage and let out a shout close to her roar.
