Chapter 619 – 619. Coronation (1)
“Huh. So, this time to resurrect that old friend, the doll?”
“I think so.”
Eun-hyun, who came to her house, was able to attend a dinner with her wives for the first time in a long time.
Now, seeing Illyana sitting on the table with her swollen and heavy stomach, it was somehow unfamiliar, but a smile came out.
Previously, she was a heartless woman who looked on with indifference, not caring what happened to other people or the kingdom, but as her husband was born and her family expanded, she even had a child in her belly, becoming a very gentle and benevolent mother. There was.
“Oh, of course she’s not going to go into that right away. When I am working, I want to get your help too.”
“My help?”
“Because the heart of Archis is also an artifact.”
It is also an artifact that contains and produces vast amounts of mana enough to be a huge power source that can maintain the interior of this huge dungeon.
“If I re-equip the core of this dungeon, won’t it work?”
“That is hard. It’s not because of the heart that Arcis’ body itself stopped functioning, but because of various other reasons.”
There was nothing wrong with her heart itself.
If there had been a problem, it would have been impossible to maintain the dungeon’s power like this even now.
“Uh? Hyuna. If that heart wasn’t a problem, why would you remake it?”
“There was no problem with the heart, but the cause of the heart failure was correct.”
To be precise, Arcis’s body could not withstand the output of his heart, which emitted vast amounts of mana with infinite power.
Acting with her Eunhyeon, Archis was never able to maintain her body and parts.
That was her only shortcoming as a puppeteer who made many dolls that she couldn’t fix herself.
“I’m planning to take this opportunity to make Archis’ heart, and also make his body again.”
In fact, only her exterior remains unchanged, her interior is virtually replaced with a completely new one.
The reason why Eun-hyeon wants to remake Archis’ heart is not to put strain on her body and parts by adjusting her output.
She planned to further enhance her powers by remaking stronger and more durable parts and building a more powerful power source, the heart.
In addition to the durability, there is even a mechanic named Eun-hyeon, so as long as Eun-hyeon is present, Archis will never stop again.
“So, remaking the heart and parts of Archis was scheduled for quite a later date. Now… Because that’s not the case.”
Eunhyun glanced at Illyana’s swollen abdomen and smiled.
“If possible, I plan to produce it after giving birth and postpartum care, and when your body condition is completely restored.”
A new successor puppeteer has also been identified, who is scheduled to help create the doll’s parts.
It would take quite a bit of time to pass on and educate Cecilia about the puppeteer’s knowledge.
Until Illyana gave birth to her child and fully recovered her condition, she intended to be fully prepared.
“I see.”
Illyana nodded her head in understanding.
“I plan to stay at home for a while. Meantime… I guess I didn’t pay too much attention.”
Eunhyun smiled bitterly as if she had no respect for her.
It was true that she was really happy to learn of her pregnancy, but she had so many external tasks to deal with that she had to leave the care of her wife to Eleanor and Lily.
Eunhyun made up her mind to spend time with Illyana, at least for now, and do her best for the soon-to-be-born baby.
“Good. I like that attitude. I will forgive you.”
Illyana smiled and responded generously.
She understood from the beginning because she knew that she couldn’t help it, but it was true that she regretted not seeing her husband’s face often.
From now on, she is grateful and happy that she will spend time with herself and the baby in her belly.

“Come… Really came…”
“…”
In the Kingdom of Pernias, it was a day that could not help but be auspicious externally.
Inside her office, where she had been training to become her queen, Yuria couldn’t hide her nervousness.
It was because it was the day of the coronation that I had hoped and hoped so that tomorrow would not come.
None other than Yuria Fernias. Yuria had hoped that the day would never come when she, herself, would formally take over her position as queen and officially proclaim it.
“Really, what should I do…”
In the end, Alex, who was sighing, asked her Yuria.
“Princess. Why are you so nervous?”
“Yeah, that’s right. That I am the queen Alex, do you think this makes sense?”
“You’ve been working hard to inherit her throne, haven’t you?”
Originally, her princess, Yuria, had no right to succeed to the throne.
Her consolation was her eldest son, Prince Damian, and her eldest son, Prince Damian, and her concubine’s son, her own younger brother, Evan.
However, with the official death of her king, Andrea Pernias, the truth of the ugly roots hidden deep in the Kingdom of Pernias was revealed, and in the end, even Damian, who had been taken away by the first King Ortas, died.
The next succession to the throne was in the correct order for Prince Evan to take over, but his younger brother, who is not yet 15 years old, is too immature to lead the country.
“That couldn’t be helped. Because I was the only one…”
Eun-hyeon forced her back and said that she would take over the throne, but as expected, as the day of ascending the throne approached, she couldn’t help but feel scared.
Being a king or queen is like being responsible for the lives of all the people within the territory of this country.
With one of their own choices, someone can win the happiness of smiling, but on the contrary, thinking that someone can fall into the pit of ruin, the burden of responsibility has been increased and has tightened their hearts.
For Yuria, the royal family and the position of king were like shackles that she wanted to run away from, but could never run away from.
“My goal was to live as thin and long as possible…”
Yuria hates taking responsibility for something.
If she takes responsibility, she must carry out her duties as much as she has, and she is afraid that in the process she will experience failure.
Even more so if the result of that failure is a matter directly related to the lives of the people.
A contradictory situation in which her sincerity and responsibility to perform her duties and bring out good results rather tighten her heart.
It was much better than her irresponsible and selfish disposition, but in Yuria’s case, that disposition is a bit excessive.
Either way, she was aware that Yuria was a very troublesome woman herself.
Even though she knows she has to, it doesn’t come easy for her to accept it.
“Ha.”
Why did it become like this?
She didn’t even know herself, so she sighed.
– If you can’t avoid it, you should enjoy it. Haha.
Suddenly, the face of Eun-Hyun, who was smiling brightly, appeared in her mind, and she clenched her fists.
When he remembered the nasty face that pushed him onto the throne, he felt full of wanting to punch him with his fist.
Even he was so pitiful that he had been fooled by one, and his pride was hurt.
“Excuse me~.”
Soon enough, Eunhyun’s voice came very naturally.
Yuria and Alex’s heads simultaneously turned in the direction the voice came from.
“… Did the fantasy come true to grant my wish?”
“Hmm?”
Eunhyun, who heard YuRia’s muttering, as if she had gone half out of her mind, looked at Alex and asked.
“What situation?”
“… It seems that you are under a lot of stress because of the coronation ceremony tomorrow.”
Alex did not criticize Eun-hyeon for calmly appearing in the palace, where only members of the royal family and those allowed to enter were allowed to enter.
This situation of allowing outsiders to invade too futilely is meaningless if the opponent is Eun-hyeon, even if it is an action that could undermine the authority of the royal family and the kingdom.
Alex and Eunhyeon were not in a relationship to criticize such things, and in Eunhyeon’s case, he was a man who did not cross the line and kept it well.
“Ah.”
Listening to Alex’s story filled with a bitter smile, Eunhyeon understood what Yuria was feeling right now.
“I really have one request. Can you please listen to me?”
YuRia asked, looking at Eunhyun with her sparkling eyes.
Judging by the expression on her face, Eun-hyeon felt that it was very unusual, and guessed that it was not a light request.
However, Eun-hyeon and Alex, who knew her, also knew that the request was meaningless, even if it was important from her point of view.
“Can’t you just let me hit you in the face once? It’s so nasty that I can’t stand it.”
“I don’t know why she did that all of a sudden, but if she doesn’t want to be scolded by Illyana, she’d better stop.”
“Are you hiding behind Master with a shield at a time like this! Really annoying!”
Eun-hyeon had persuaded Yuria with sincere advice, but from Yuria’s point of view, it was only heard that Eun-hyeon was hiding behind Illyana and intimidating herself.
“Calm down. Princess.”
Sure enough, as if it were normal, Alex intervened to mediate the scuffle between the two.
After a while, he looked at Eunhyun and asked.
“What did you come for?”
“Well, because tomorrow is the coronation. I also came to see the princess’s condition.”
However, as you can see, Yuria was in a slight panic, as if the burden of her position as queen was heavier than expected.
“Just in case, even now, the throne…”
“That’s not okay.”
“Yes! I knew! I just did it! Even so, there is no such thing as an immediate answer!”
Even though she knew it, Yuria felt sad when she heard Eunhyeon’s answer, which she rejected with a single knife.
“Don’t feel too pressured. Me and Alex, as well as the two dukes, and many other nobles are princesses… No, I will help her queen.”
“The coronation is tomorrow. Don’t call her queen already. I really hate it…”
Yuria shuddered as if goosebumps ran through her body as she imagined herself to be called her queen.
“No wonder… This really feels like a boss boss… Don’t you have other plans with me in front of you again?”
“Can there be such a thing?”
Eunhyun shrugged his shoulders and replied succinctly.
His purpose was to prepare for the future war against disaster by putting the royal family, Armitas, and the two ducal families of Olivion at the forefront, and he had no other ulterior motives.
“Manipulating the most powerful people, including the royal family, from behind, this is a complete nonsense…”
“Because I am not that kind of person.”
In reality, Eunhyeon was only preparing for future disasters, but he had no intention of taking advantage of Yurina or the other two dukes’ families for personal gain.
He already had enough money to spend his whole life, and his honest intention was that he wanted the kingdom of Fernias, which had strengthened its military power, to overcome the disaster on its own.
Then he’ll be able to live and spend quality time with his wives.
However, Eun-hyeon herself knew best that this was impossible.
That’s why he makes the best preparations he can.
Eunhyeon changed the subject and spoke to Yuria, who was distraught that she was going to inherit the throne tomorrow.
“At a time like this, how about eating something delicious to lighten your mood?”
“…”
YuRia didn’t say anything and glared at Eunhyun.
Yuria’s eyes as she looked at Eunhyun, who spoke lightly as if it were someone else’s business, were full of meaning, ‘What is this human talking about?’
“Alex. Queen… I want to take her princess to her duchy and treat her to a meal. Is it possible?”
“Okay. About today…”
Seeing that Alex was looking at Yuria who was very distraught, he had no choice but to accept her offer from Eun-hyeon.
As soon as Alex’s permission to assist her was given, her Eun-hyeon asked her Yuria.
“Ramen. Shall I boil it for you?”
“… I want to eat.”
Eun-hyeon was a really nasty person to Yu-Ria, but she said that she had no sin in food, and she accepted his offer.
