Chapter 972 – Ep.970 Smith, a Black Company in Another World
Just as I was coming back to my senses, Kernax, holding Winter, returned to the bedroom.
Kernax looked somewhat exhausted, and Winter was hiding her face as she was held tightly in Kernax’s arms. From the looks of it, winter didn’t seem to be in a very good mood either.
“Smith. The neck…”
“Uh? Oh, Siron said he didn’t have an appetite, so I’ll have a little instead of breakfast.”
“Ha…”
Kernax sighed, put Winter in the cradle for a moment, then came over and sat down next to me.
“It’s much deeper than before.”
“Okay? It felt a little stinging somehow.”
“Smith.”
“Huh? Evil?!”
I jumped up, clutching my side due to the stinging pain.
“Go, suddenly?”
“I am also worried about Shiron, but I wish he would cherish his body a little more.”
I, who was making a fuss at the sight of Kernax talking seriously, scratched my cheek in embarrassment and said.
“This is okay.”
“… “What should I do about the hole?”
Kernax got up from the bed and said in a whisper, covering the area around her neck where Siron had bitten her with his robe.
“If Winter sees it, she will wail loudly.”
“Ah… !!”
I nodded, cursing myself for not thinking about that part because I had never seen the wound directly.
“The smell of blood is also a problem.”
“… Sorry. “I’m worried about Shiron.”
“It’s okay. “You took care of me from beginning to end, but you did not care about Siron, so please pay more attention to me than you do now.”
“Thank you.”
“Thank you.”
Cernax, who was gently held in his arms, raised his tiptoes and kissed his soft lips. Then he said with a gentle smile.
“Family should take care of each other.”
“That’s right. Family takes care of each other…”
“… Smith?”
“Uh? No, uh. Okay. “Family should be embraced.”
I thought I might be making a stern expression right now, so I quickly hugged Cernax and pressed my lips to her forehead and head.
“Hmm. “I will go down first, so I think it would be a good idea to at least put on a bandage.”
“I will. “Can you send me Beneo?”
“I understand.”
After getting out of her arms, Cernax headed back to the cradle and took Winter in his arms. In the process, she caught a glimpse of Winter’s face, and she had a very sad expression on her face, wondering what had happened.
No, but can a one-year-old baby make a sullen expression?
While I was thinking about that, Kernax left the bedroom with Winter, and not long after, Beneo came into the bedroom with bandages and ointment.
“What did you do on the Demon Continent?”
“Suddenly?”
Beneo, who was gently applying the ointment, closed the lid of the ointment and took off the bandage and said.
“A hole in your neck. If it had been any other human being, he would have died from excessive bleeding in less than a minute. But what happened to you is that you didn’t even try to stop the bleeding, but the bleeding has stopped, and the wound is healing.”
“Hehe, my body is a bit strong──Jik?!”
Beneo, who had tied the bandage over his shoulder and around his armpit, held it tight! He glared at me with narrowed eyes.
“I have known for a long time that you are not an ordinary human being. What I meant was to be a little more careful with your actions. “You idiot.”
“… “I’ve already been nagging Kernax, so let’s skip Beneo.”
“I am doing this considering the state of poetry. “If I was in good condition, I wouldn’t have made this mistake.”
Beneo straightens his bent back and organizes the bandages.
I got up from the bed, looking at the bandage that was tied so tightly that I thought it was a bit excessive.
“How are you feeling?”
“… “I can’t sit on the chair because of you.”
“But it was still good–kitchen!!”
Both cheeks are angry! Beneo, who turned red, planted his fist firmly in my side and gritted his teeth.
“Ha, one more time… “If you touch me like that, I will pierce your ass.”
“… Yes.”
I didn’t know anything else, but I didn’t want to offend the young man, so I nodded obediently and quietly left the bedroom with Beneo and headed toward the kitchen.
**
“How is it… ?”
“It’s delicious!”
In response to Kernax’s anxious question, I scooped up a large piece of the omelette on the plate and stuffed it into my mouth.
But it wasn’t just empty words, it fit my taste perfectly.
“Cernax woke up early in the morning to prepare.”
“Gee, Geena!”
“Uuum, what should I do, in the morning…” Gulp… Huh, I woke up in the morning and there was no one next to me. “You were making this?”
“… “Just eat.”
Kernax, shyly avoiding his gaze, loosened his grip and patted Winter’s back, who was hiding her face from the bedroom, and skillfully breastfed her.
Even though Winter didn’t want to show her face, she must have been hungry, so she started sucking Kernax’s breast eagerly as soon as she could.
I smiled and thought happily as I watched my wife and daughter happy.
‘… ‘You’re screwed.’
You wake up early in the morning and prepare your own food.
But now I had to pour cold water into this warm atmosphere.
What if you don’t pour cold water in now?
Then, we will definitely face a future in which we will have to pour gasoline, not cold water, into a blazing fire rather than a warm atmosphere.
‘First, let’s eat first.’
From then on, I hurriedly stuffed the food prepared on the table into my mouth without even having time to properly taste it, just filling my stomach.
Fortunately, Kernax and Geena looked at me with great satisfaction, as I was very anxious, because their food was so delicious that it seemed like they were wasting their time eating it.
“Here.”
“Thank you.”
If possible, I wanted to clear my stuffy throat with a cold beer, but since it was winter in front of me and there was no way Giena, who prioritizes health, would give me beer, I just quenched my throat with cold water that was so cool that it made my head tingle.
“If you want, I can make some more.”
“No. Are you okay? Rather, would you all like to sit down for a moment?”
“…”
“… ?”
After looking at me for a moment, I went to her own seat, and Beneo, who was organizing her dishes behind her, tilted her head and placed her butt on the seat next to me.
‘I can’t see Nyaho…’ …’
As was the case in the past, Nyaho will accept anyone as family if Siron and Kernax allow it.
Of course, this did not only apply to Nyaho.
The reason why Amela, who likes to solve everything by force, and her other wives are unable to move from Siron.
That’s because my first lover was Siron.
To be precise, the two legs, that is, the fact that I asked Siron for permission when accepting Kernax was the biggest opportunity that led to our current relationship.
In another sense, in a world where polygamy is taken for granted, there is no need to talk about what it must have looked like for me, who was far superior to other males, to cling to one woman.
In the process of Cernax, who joined for the second time, slowly recovering her relationship with Siron, she naturally accepted Siron as her confidant, and later told this to the other wives, including Giena and Amela, who joined.
“Smith?”
And even now that he has Winter, there doesn’t seem to be much change in Kernax’s thoughts.
“It’s nothing else…”
In the end, all the decision-making power was in Shiron’s hands, but that was it and the other wives had the right to know, so I took a deep breath and slowly opened my mouth.
“… “I think the family will increase quite a bit.”
“Ha, what else can I say?”
“That was somewhat expected.”
“Can I get up?”
The wives’ reaction as if they knew this would happen made me look back on the past.
But before that, the first thing to do was to catch the girls who were trying to get up.
“No, that… There really are a lot.”
“I’m fine as long as your love for me doesn’t change.”
“I will follow the hostess’s opinion.”
Giena’s reaction was as expected, and Beneo responded that he would follow Siron’s decision.
“I don’t know if it’s because there are so many.”
And Kernax looked at me as if asking me to tell him where and how many people there were, and patted Winter on the back after biting her breast.
“Well, first of all, there’s Marvius, that is, the princess and Adrian…”
“Is Marvius okay?”
“Uh? Ah, uh. “You’re safe.”
“… Thank goodness.”
Kernax smiled faintly, looked at me with a more envious look, and gestured for me to continue speaking.
“Melbourne… “You know?”
“How could someone who has been knighted not know Lord Melbourne?”
“… That’s how it happened.”
“I knew it would end up like this ever since I came out to meet you several times while I was in the islands as the Crown Princess’s messenger.”
As expected, the woman’s senses were scary.
“And Irina, from the desert──”
“I know. It’s a name I heard from Nyaho. “The two of us even had a meal together.”
“… Yes.”
The fact that Nyaho, whom I thought was my absolute ally, was secretly sharing my news with her wives made me feel dizzy.
Even the meal with Irina must have taken a carriage during lunchtime. How did you know that?
“Four? There are definitely a lot.”
“…”
As I was thinking about Nyaho for a moment, my mouth went dry when I heard a few words that came out of Kernax’s mouth.
And is my psychology revealed on my face?
“… “More?”
“… Yes.”
As I nodded, Cernax’s face, which had softened at the news of Marvius, hardened again.
“Is that because there are more of them? Two? Or three?”
“Joe, just a little more.”
“… Four?”
There were a total of eight there.
The expressions of Giena and Beneo, who had been sitting there as if they were okay with it, also hardened when they got there.
And I said, raising one index finger towards the wives whose faces were stiff.
“One more person there… ?”
“”…””
A total of nine.
This number even excluded Toriel, Agnes, and Giselle.
Oh, Mariel was also excluded.
“No, one person──”
“Stop.”
Kernax stretched out his hand and interrupted me.
And he said, pressing his eyebrows as if he was very tired.
“… Nine, no. Since you said one more person, does that mean there are ten? “You have started a completely new life.”
“No, that explains everything──”
“It’s done.”
Kernax stood up, carefully holding Winter in his arms.
“I don’t know, so I will leave all decisions to the will of the poet.”
With a cold notice, Kernax left the kitchen with Winter.
“… “I will also follow the will of the poet.”
“Gi, Giena?”
“I’m sorry.”
She said she would take my side, but I bowed my head and apologized and withdrew my intention.
“They said I wouldn’t give you my heart. “Wow.”
“…”
Is this revenge for yesterday’s butt and ears?
Beneo snorted at me and got up and left to finish his work.
‘Lonely──’
【Stop shaking and come over quickly when you are done with your business.】
‘… ‘I’ll go now’
Today seemed like it would be a very long day.
