Chapter 974 – 974. Gather (3)
“I’m trying to protect Hyeon.”
“What?”
Siete couldn’t understand.
I don’t understand why Eun-hyeon’s relationships with so many other women lead to the conclusion that she is protecting him.
“What about Hyun? “She may look really fine on the outside, but on the inside, she’s really not that good, right?”
“…”
Siete quietly listened to Erin’s words.
There was something about her that made sense to her.
“She’s really obsessed with what she needs.”
It is absolutely necessary.
It must be done.
In those areas, you have to do it to be able to solve your true nature.
“And she has incredibly low self-esteem.”
So when she needs to get something done, she doesn’t hesitate to use herself as the cost.
She always built up what she wanted as she was hurt, broken, and shattered over and over again.
She couldn’t help but worry about how precarious and unstable her castle was in the eyes of her other wives.
“We love Hyeon-i and as her wife, we work hard to support her to achieve Hyeon-i’s mission, but at the same time, we are shackles to hold her down.”
She has no hesitation in describing herself and her other wives as shackles.
Even though it was a very disturbing expression, Erin didn’t seem to feel bad about the role.
So Illyana put shackles on Eunhyeon.
She gave birth to a daughter who inherited his blood at the same time as hers, and took on her other wives.
She gave Eunhyeon her family.
To keep her from gnawing at herself and giving up.
It could be seen that she took advantage of his sincere and responsible nature.
The expression ‘shackles’ is a very direct, explicit, yet touching expression.
The result of a woman named Illyana’s insane obsession with keeping the man she loved by her side.
“Oh, that doesn’t mean that just any woman accepted it.”
There were many women who approached Eunhyeon with a rational attraction.
Among them, those who were recognized as women who truly cared for Eunhyun and could move for him were Eleanor, Lily, and Erin.
“What about Hyun? She’s very talented, right? And she’s also good-looking.”
“… “Isn’t that just your opinion?”
“Are you saying Hyeon is ugly now?”
“Listen carefully. “This.”
“Ouch!”
Siete fed honey chestnuts to Erin’s forehead.
Erin cried out at her heavy blow, but Siete only snorted at her.
“Why was I able to get permission? “I think I know why.”
And Illyana naturally realized what role she wanted.
Siete, like Verdandi, was one of the few beings that Eunhyeon could rely on.
She is also different from her other wives like Illyana and Eleanor.
Siete is the starting point for the creation of Eunhyeon’s swordsmanship.
And a good prop to push his growth further upwards.
“… “It’s an amazing feeling.”
She laughed at the witch’s intention to use her.
I hated this on Earth.
She had no intention of listening to anyone’s orders, and she had no intention of being tied down somewhere.
So he didn’t even think about forming a relationship with anyone, let alone belonging somewhere.
Accepting Eunhyeon as a disciple was purely a whim.
But what about now?
She didn’t feel bad about the witch’s attitude, as if she openly declared that she would use her.
“Good night. “I’ll skip this point.”
Siete naturally joined Eunhyeon’s wives.
◆ ◆ ◆
When she finally got home she was greeted by Lily coming out to meet Erin home.
“Oh. Erin. Come on.”
“Hi-Hi. “I’m back!”
Eventually, Lily moved her gaze to Xie Te and bowed her head.
“I was waiting. Sir Siete.”
“Uh, um…”
Even though she decided to live in this house in accordance with Illyana’s intentions, Siete couldn’t help but feel quite awkward.
As expected, Siete’s interpersonal relationships were not that extensive.
At most, she was like Eunhyun or Erin.
It is said that Eleanor received various considerations, such as finding a house within the duchy for her convenience, but among Eunhyeon’s wives, except for Erin, there was no one she could treat so comfortably.
“I’m planning to prepare dinner today to welcome you, Siete. Please look forward to it.”
“… I get it.”
What made her so happy was that Lily smiled brightly and spoke to her. Even though she felt awkward, she couldn’t help but nod her head.
It was a strange feeling.
Even though she felt awkward like this, Lily was dealing with her without hesitation.
Erin has a tendency to treat herself poorly, so she gets scolded sometimes.
The same was true of Eleanor’s excessive kindness and consideration before.
Eun-hyeon’s wives had been showing excessive favor toward him to the point that he had doubts about it.
“Are you embarrassed?”
“…”
Lily clearly understood Siete’s bewildered state of mind.
She was as sensitive as Erin to the emotions of others.
She may have always been calm, but her question about Lily was straight to the point.
“Of course. Because you are precious to your master. And… “Now you’re just like us.”
She had no reason not to welcome it.
“Please wait for a moment. I will speak to the little madam and the master right away. Erin. “Would you please guide Siete to the living room?”
“Huh! Okay! Sister. But what about Illyana?”
“You are sleeping in the master bedroom. “I think she fell asleep as soon as Reyna ate her meal in the morning.”
“Ah. “I need to be quiet.”
Once Reyna begins to fall asleep, she sleeps very deeply.
Even so, she couldn’t disturb the baby’s sleep, so even Erin, who was active at times like this, would act very cautiously.
“Master! Go to our living room and wait. I think Hyeon and Eleanor are working in the study right now. “He’ll be back soon.”
“… Okay.”
“Then please excuse me for a moment.”
◆ ◆ ◆
Lily headed straight to the study.
She wanted to inform the city that Te was visiting as scheduled.
As soon as she arrived at the study, she knocked and tried to announce the news.
“Master…”
“Ah, ah… !”
Just as she was about to call Eleanor and her Eunhyun, Lily heard Eleanor’s moans coming from inside her study and was unable to continue her words.
With that sound, the negative energy leaked out through the crack in the tightly closed door.
The scent of lust that stimulates the instincts of a succubus.
At that moment, I was filled with the desire to go into the study and join them.
But I let out a small sigh, filled with regret at the reality that now was not the time.
Lily knocked cautiously.
“… !”
With just two knocks, the movement in the study stopped as if time had stopped.
Lily deliberately made her presence known.
It was also a little grumpy that they were enjoying themselves so much.
“Master. Little madam. Erin brought Siete with her.”
“Oh my… Look at my mind… Okay. Lily. I’ll be leaving soon… ! Hmm!?”
Eleanor, who quickly came to her senses, was momentarily startled and was unable to continue her words.
“You… ! Siete is waiting now… !”
“I’ll finish it soon. “Lily.”
“Yes. Master.”
“Sorry. “Can you tell me I’ll be leaving soon?”
“Yes. All right.”
It seemed like Eunhyeon was planning to see it through to the end once she started.
It was also a bit disappointing.
“Ha, Aang… ! It’s too strong… !”
Lily came out into the living room while listening to the intense chanting coming from the other side of the door.
“Master and Little Madam have some unfinished business yet, so it will take some time. “I will prepare dinner soon, so Siete, please wait patiently.”
“… “Sure.”
Siete had a question when he saw Lily’s expression showing complex emotions, whether she was dissatisfied with something or regretful, but she didn’t bother to ask it.
‘… ‘You’re doing it.’
Only Erin, who knew that Lily couldn’t make such an expression just because she was busy with work, noticed the general situation.
◆ ◆ ◆
From Siete’s fragmentary perspective, there was no discord in Eunhyeon’s family.
It was a family where Eunhyun, of course, was centered around Iliana, with Eleanoa and Lily supporting them, and Erin being very loved by her husband and the other wives.
Verdandi was next to Eunhyeon, looking at the scene with joy.
It was truly a relationship between women that Siete could not understand, but Eunhyeon’s family was so peaceful and full of love that she was able to get rid of that sense of discomfort.
She didn’t feel that bad about being in this relationship as well.
However, even in Eun-hyeon’s family, which was full of love, there was never a conflict like her clash of opinions.
“No! Even Illyana can’t give up on this!”
“… Baby. “Are you serious?”
“Yes! “Just like that!”
She was a completely different person from when she always showed off her foolish side to Illyana.
She had a resolute attitude, as if she had no intention of backing down.
Illyana also looked at Erin and confirmed her intention.
Erin spoke once again firmly.
“You have to pour over the sweet and sour pork!”
Ironically, the clash of opinions occurred at a dinner welcoming Siete.
At the table where Lily had prepared a generous meal of Earth food that she had mastered in Eunhyun’s dreams for Siete, Erin strongly expressed her intention, pointing to her sweet and sour pork.
As Iliana ate the sweet and sour pork with the sauce, she enjoyed the crunchy texture of the fries.
However, Erin really liked the deep flavor of the sauce on her batter.
“What does that mean? Erin. You have to eat sweet and sour pork with a dip. “If you pour in the sauce, it becomes soggy and not tasty.”
“No. It’s not getting soggy. Lily. It adds flavor. Erin is right.”
“…”
Poor Eleanor and Erin.
Illyana and Lily, both of whom were very angry, had different opinions.
When the score was tied at 2 to 2, your wife’s eyes turned to the others.
“What do other people think?”
The first opponent Erin targeted was Verdandi.
“Lord Verdandi! “It would be delicious to pour it in and eat it, right?”
“I think it tastes better if I dip it too…”
“Really… “Ro?”
Erin’s pupils shook greatly when she did not agree with her opinion.
Verdandi was very embarrassed when he looked like he was going to shed tears like chicken shit at any moment.
“Oh, no! Let’s pour and eat! I think it would be better to pour it out… !”
He hurriedly changed her words and agreed with Erin’s opinion, but it also meant that he did not follow the other side’s opinion.
“Lord Verdandi. “Are you serious?”
“Well, that is…” .”
The other wives, who were waiting for an answer, rolled their eyes and all eyes turned to Verdandi.
‘… ‘That’s a goddess?’
Siete, who had already abstained from voting because it didn’t matter to either side, looked at Verdandi as if it was absurd.
It looked pitiful to see them struggling and not being able to decide on a choice.
In the end, he ends up crying and clinging to Eunhyeon.
“Oh my! I can’t decide! Help me!”
“Why, me…”
It was a really tiring situation.
It’s an either/or choice where it’s obvious that if you choose one, you’ll be glared at by the other.
It really wasn’t easy to side with one side.
The wives usually get along very well with each other, but when there are occasional differences of opinion like this, it gives me a headache.
“Hyuna! Let’s get together!?”
“…”
“Answer.”
Erin stormed out, demanding her answer without mercy.
Eunhyun sighed and opened her mouth.
“Can’t we just take half and half and eat whatever we want?”
