Chapter 688 – Ep.686 Tullius Empire
That evening.
“Why don’t we get away from Dad for a moment?”
-Ugh.
When I waved my hand at Winter, who had woken up from a deep sleep, Winter, who had been carried into Kernax’s arms while she was sleeping, looked at me and then jerked! And he hid his face again.
“Hehe, you’re going to cry again because you don’t have a dad.”
-Ugh…
Even if you hide your face, you can’t do anything else! She seemed to have buried her face in Kernax’s arms, but her plump cheeks were sticking out, which only made her cuteness stand out even more.
“I will be back.”
“Okay.”
I kissed Kernax’s forehead and lips as he prepared to feed the hungry Winter, then gently kissed Winter’s head one last time and left the room.
“Bad guy.”
“Evil?!”
As soon as I came down the stairs and entered the kitchen, my sister slapped me on the back.
“Why, why?!”
“I have the winter all to myself. “If you hadn’t intervened during the day, it would have been my turn to be chosen, you bastard!!”
“No…”
I felt good because they liked Gyeoreum, but I felt very wronged because I felt like I was beaten for some strange reason.
“Sniff, sniff!! Haha, baby smell…”
Moreover, I don’t know when Siron came closer to me, and he immediately latched onto my arms, buried his nose in the chest where Gyeolgi was hugged, and started sniffing.
“… “We need more supplies.”
Nyaho is muttering as if something has turned black.
Fortunately, Gienna and Nemea, who were present during the day to receive Winter’s selection, did not show any unusual behavior.
“But I think it’s really cute because there’s a really cute baby among the kids with weirdly big breasts.”
“That creepy bitch was pretty cute 20 years ago.”
Siran and Bizelin, who had already emptied a bottle of wine, also added a word.
Match──!!
And the sound of handclaps echoing through the chaotic kitchen.
“Everyone is here, so please take a seat.”
Sis’ clear tone spread calmly through the kitchen, which had become quiet, along with the sound of hand clapping.
At the same time, the wives who still find it a bit difficult for the sis clear their throats or scratch their cheeks, find their own seats, and sit with their butts pressed against hers.
“Meals.”
Giena and Beneo, who were waiting for him, put today’s dinner on the table and sat down. Only then did Sis sit down and raise his spoon.
“I’ll eat well.”
When I first took a bite of the beef in front of me and put it in my mouth, the other wives also started eating as usual.
It was naturally late in the evening as we waited for Winter to wake up, but as always, we had a pleasant time chatting with each other.
Everyone was satisfied with their stomachs, took a glass with a drink of their choice to freshen their mouths, and looked at Sis.
It was because of what was written in the emperor’s letter during the day.
“I’m sure everyone has read the letter, but I will read it one more time here.”
Sis, who had been carrying the letter on a day when she was not there to care for Winter, took out the letter from the rough envelope and unfolded it.
“Did you get what you wanted from the warehouse? It would be a shame if I didn’t get it. Well, if you show me something that will make me happy again, I might let you in one more time. But before that, it seemed like he took my warning that day quite seriously, and I liked that part. So, if you behave well for about a week, I will personally send you to the Demon Continent that you wanted to go to.”
Sis folded the letter and put it back into the envelope.
“Like this, the emperor appears to know quite a bit more than he thinks. “That person wrote in the letter that he would send Mr. Smith to the Demon Continent.”
The mysteriously shining water-colored eyes turned to Bizelin.
“What kind of person is the emperor?”
“A little bit crazy? Well, he may look that way and he may actually be a bit crazy, but he is very intelligent. “Except you and me, you’ll never win in a battle of heads, right?”
“Is there anything else to watch out for?”
“Doesn’t exist. Although she is a bit of a crazy bitch, she is the emperor and does not go back on what she says and always keeps it. So, the letter is the same. “You just have to accept what’s written as it is without thinking too much about it.”
“Be quiet and don’t mess with Nuitism anymore, or I’ll send you to the Demon Continent in a week…” … “I see.”
“Yes.”
Master Bizelin nodded once at Sis’ literal translation and took a sip of the hot coffee filled with Siran’s breast milk.
“I would appreciate it if Siran would also answer this time. Could you please tell me what kind of place the Demon Continent is and how many of the current personnel can protect my safety?”
“Him, him, and me.”
Without any hesitation, Siran pointed to his sister and Nemea and then to himself.
“Well, if you don’t go in too deep, it’s okay to carry that baggage. “If you’re going to go beyond the center, it’s literally a load of luggage.”
At that time, as she was quietly drinking tea, I went out and raised her hand.
“Is it impossible for me too?”
“Uh. Not possible. You know that the Demon Continent is a really barren place, right? So most of them have a lot of money from you elves. “Let alone protecting your body, the moment I take you away, it’s obvious that there will be a series of accidents, so I’m eliminated.”
“… Okay.”
Gyna lowered her hand and Sith calmly looked around at each face before she made sure no one else was talking and continued.
“If Master Smith goes to the Demon Continent, the candidates to accompany him are Siran, Amela, and Nemea. “There will be three of you.”
Nyaho, who had almost no power, couldn’t even participate in this story in the first place, and even Siron, who was always dissatisfied, kept his mouth shut and remained silent, even though he frowned this time.
“From here on, it is just my opinion, but for the safety of Lord Cernax and the young lady, I hope that Lord Amela and Nemea will remain here.”
“… For a moment. “No matter how strong my mom is, I feel uneasy about leaving a fool alone.”
“I agree with that.”
“It’s not that I don’t trust Siran, but I still feel a little alone…”
When Siron opened his mouth, Giena and Nyaho agreed.
The most important thing here is my doctor, but since I also wanted to respect the opinions of my wives, I first looked at Siran’s complexion.
However, contrary to what I thought he would say, Siran was looking at his sister, not at Siron, with a sad look on his face.
“Tsk… “There’s one more person going, so you don’t have to worry about that.”
“Who? Could it be that Gomtaeng who came during the day?”
“Well, that pretty bear ended up being…” … !!”
Siron’s eyebrows were bent downward, and Nyaho also gritted his teeth and did not hide his discomfort.
“Anyway… “I want to follow along, but what do you think?”
My sister asked me as if she was passing something on.
“Please stay here as Sis said. Nemea too.”
“… Well, it doesn’t matter because Winter is cute.”
“I just follow.”
Fortunately, my sister and Nemea both accepted my wishes without much opposition.
“Then the selection of personnel has been completed. What’s left…”
Sith’s eyes turned to Master Bizelin again.
“Really, you really don’t want to follow me? There’s nothing to enjoy and it’s really cold, right? Besides, the food is tasteless.”
“But in order to show you Mr. Smith’s face, Mr. Bizelin must accompany you.”
“Therefore!! Shit!!”
Bizelin had already finished drinking all of her coffee and fell down on her table, messing up her hair.
“Keuhum, big… Well, there’s nothing I can do for you, and I’ll always walk with my legs down so you don’t feel any discomfort.”
“I don’t need it? “It’s a hundred times more comfortable to just float!!”
Lady Bizelin’s hot gaze was shooting me as if she were looking at her parents’ enemy, and I was at a loss for words, so I just smiled awkwardly and scratched my cheek.
“Shall I at least kneel?”
“Who do you want to see die?”
At those words, I was able to find Siran sitting next to Master Bizelin, clenching his fists.
“Ha… Even if you tolerate everything else, not having a taste for food is the worst. Worst!!”
“Well, I’ll try my best to solve it somehow.”
It has already been confirmed that goods from Earth can be brought in through exchange. And when it comes to food, it doesn’t have to be Earth food, as long as it tastes good, it will be easier to find.
“That word. “Do you really have to take responsibility?”
“I will really try to do something.”
“Well, I just squeeze it and eat it myself, so don’t worry too much.”
On the other hand, Siran laughed, his lips strangely thin with a bright red tongue.
“Well, it seems like everything has been decided, so I’ll just leave it at that. “Thank you everyone for your time.”
As Sis got up from his seat without any hesitation, Giena and Beneo began to clean up the table as if they had been waiting for him.
“You idiot. “I’m going to take a shower. Do you want to come with me?”
“Uh? Oh, I’ll go first. “I’ll go in a little later.”
I patted Siron’s butt as he approached me and sent him up with Nyaho first, and I leaned my head back against the backrest, swallowing half of the lukewarm beer that was still left.
‘… ‘It’s so different from what I thought.’
I thought we would all travel together when we went to the Demon Continent, but as you can see, the reality was harsh.
‘Since Bizelin is going with you, the move itself won’t take long… Still, I would have to stay away for half a year.’
Other wives will be patient and wait somehow…
I immediately remembered the scene where Winter cried bitterly as soon as she saw me during the day.
“Okay… !!”
I had to go, but I really didn’t want to go.
Perhaps this was exactly how Bizelin felt a moment ago?
‘… I also want to see Ardel and Ardel.’
Even if you send a letter by express via the black line, it will take a month, so I think the letter attached after arriving at the mansion will reach Ardella’s hands as soon as next week.
If you wanted to have a really quick conversation, you could use Sith to communicate with the believers in Molingta, but that was a bit awkward.
Gulp, gulp, gulp──!!
“Puha~!!”
After shaking off the remaining beer in one go, I put the empty glass on the table and jumped up.
“Decided.”
One week ahead.
I decided to just stamp my attendance and go straight home.
