Chapter 22 – The Life of Ian Ernest
Ian Ernest is the eldest son of the Ernest family.
His family had a little special corner.
What kind of place is the Ernest family,
When the country was first established a long time ago, it is a family of founding contributors who were directly bestowed with names by the emperor in recognition of the achievements of their ancestor ‘Ian’, who played an active role under the pseudonym of Iron Blood.
In a prestigious family that everyone recognizes even if it is measured not by country but by continent, the children of the present generation are given the name of the greatest ancestor.
It must have been in the hope that the child born would grow up to be a strong support for the family, in a situation where there had been several major incidents in the chaotic situation and the empire was reeling.
Ian, who was born that way, grew up literally paying for his name, without tarnishing his ancestors’ names.
As a result of the expression of the most superior trait among outstanding genes,
Not to mention her outstanding appearance, she displayed truly demonic talents in all fields.
However, if you set your mind to it, you have the potential to become great no matter what it is.
When Ian wasn’t even ten years old, he lost interest in almost everything.
If the situation around him had changed just a little more urgently, the boy would not have fallen into the hot water of boredom and become detached from worldly affairs…
As if Ian’s birth itself was a kind of huge blessing, the Empire quickly found stability within ten years, and the chaos that had spread was already mostly settled at that point.
He had the talents of a hero,
A child born in the wrong era.
Ian’s evaluation in the family was like that.
Is there anything more useless than a hero living in a peaceful era?
If he had become the seed of trouble himself by being perverted, there would have been a sign of his boredom resolving… It was impossible for Ian, whose innate nature was good.
So for Ian,
Life was a series of boredom.
Even though Ian could be so good, he couldn’t understand others, so he would have become a truly arrogant person.
It would have been if it had not been for the teachings of parents, who could only be evaluated as excellent.
Ian’s mother, the only understanding person in the world with his father, told him.
“Ian. When you’re bored or confused, think of Sangvis mindset. Somehow, I will help you so that you do not fall into a strange path or fall into anguish.”
“Are you iron-blooded?”
“Okay. Isn’t it also a family motto?”
Ian’s mother used to teach Ian that way whenever she had time, like a habit out of concern for her outstanding child.
Her efforts can be said to be quite appropriate,
Intelligent Ian was able to grow up straight with just that.
To him, the world was always boring, but the distinction between what to do and what not to do was clear, so he did not cause accidents, and he did not fall into boredom and couldn’t distinguish between construction work.
He was truly a child who fit the nickname of the iron-blooded family.
It wasn’t until several years later that Ian’s parents realized something serious was wrong.
Having restrained his emotions from a very young age, Ian became somewhat numb to his relationships with people.
Especially in male-female relationships.
Most of the girls his age would blush and confess that they liked her whenever they made eye contact, so he didn’t pay much attention to her when he was very young, but as he got older, Ian got into trouble.
Why?
The women who tried to take over the position of mistress of the Ernest family were able to refuse with appropriate words, weighing the gains and losses.
But what troubled Ian the most was when he noticed that when asked why, women were serious when they said things that didn’t fit the logic, that she just liked them because they liked them.
Where the heck is that? I wish I had a clearer reason.
I didn’t say it directly, but Ian’s attitude was such that the opponents who understood it would be sincerely hurt.
Didn’t her mother’s teaching that she shouldn’t hurt others for no reason become useless?
So, Ian got into trouble.
However, Ian, who was also intelligent, was able to come up with a solution right away.
If you can sympathize with that heart, he just liked you, and you might know how to refuse so that the other person who is not at fault is not hurt.
One day Ian asked.
“Father, what is love?”
“Pooh-! Whoop, whoop, whoop…”
“… You are coughing violently.”
“Isn’t it your fault? What’s up all of a sudden, Ian? Be disgusting.”
“I’m just curious.”
“My son was a man. Ask all those things…”
“Honey, there’s nothing I can’t say to my son.”
Coincidentally, Ian’s parents were a married couple famous for being good at drinking even if the whole empire was taken into account.
The relationship between a man and a woman is completed in the most ideal form even to Ian, who is insensitive.
Ian wondered why the two of them were able to become like that.
“Did you find someone you like?”
“No, mother. Not like that.”
“Then why all of a sudden?”
“…”
“… Aha. That’s it. Is that why you’re curious?”
As if to prove that I was born from my own womb,
The mother would sometimes see through Ian’s true intentions in such a surprisingly simple way.
However, his mother, who always thinks of Ian and gives the most appropriate answer, gave a blunt answer for the first time in his life.
“Sorry, but that is inexplicable. If you try to find it, you won’t find it, and at some point you can’t even guess or notice it, it’s in your heart. It’s not for nothing that people who say love is destiny.”
“Is that so.”
“Ian, don’t you want to date?”
“He’ll think that’s a waste of time. In fact, it can. It’s best to just wait until you find someone you like.”
“Then what if Ian dies of old age alone?”
“… I know you feel pampered, but that’s not going to happen.”
“How are you so sure?”
“I thought the same as Ian. Until right before I met you.”
“Oh.”
As soon as the couple exchanged hot glances, realizing that Ian was looking at it with interest, they cleared their throats and continued explaining.
“Just, like your mother said, at some point, you will definitely find someone you like too. The person you were looking at might one day look pretty, or the woman you rejected might be attracted to you when you see it again.”
“How about falling in love at first sight with a girl you’ve never seen? It’s romantic and nice.”
“It’s romantic, but can our wonderful son really do that…”
“It could be. Ian. Anyway, feel free to think about it. Until the person of your destiny comes along.”
It’s a pity, but the parents’ words weren’t very useful this time.
For Ian, who wanted a clear answer.
She had no one to ask for more, so her Ian’s anguish was left alone.
Let her think about it to her heart’s content, recalling only the words of her mother that she heard that day.
However, if it lasts for several years, you start to question the feeling of love itself.
“Father. What is love?”
“Is that the sound again? The first time I heard it, I sprayed water, but now I’m afraid and fed up with seeing your face.”
“…”
“It is a joke. Joke. What a pleasure it is to watch your unluckily proud son become the only one who gets nerfed. Ask me anything.”
“Does it come from a desire for physical intercourse? Sexual intercourse.”
“I don’t think it’s a desirable shape, but… What could be If a man is tempted by a woman with big breasts and full butt, he has no choice but to fall for it. Aren’t you?”
“I also rejected Lady Rosvelt’s confession today.”
“… The rosevelt? Are you really a idiot? Are you not standing?”
“No. If I can’t date you, I cried and begged you to sleep just once, so I came back because I was in trouble.”
“My only son is garbage.”
“But when I put my body on top of it, I was so scared and ran away saying I couldn’t do it.”
“Eh? Why?”
“What did you say? Didn’t he say that he would never enter something so heinous?”
“…”
“You had hoped so earnestly, but your attitude suddenly changed in an instant. So I’m not sure. The feelings that girls show me are completely different from what my mother and father told me. Is that love?”
“Uh, um. I have nothing to say. Don’t call Isolde.”
“Yes.”
“Ma’am. My son deceived me by saying it was big in front of his father. What should I do…”
Without a big blue in life, without a big change in emotions,
True to the family motto of being iron-blooded, he always calmly looks at his surroundings without being swept away by his desires.
Even Ian had a lot of sexual desire.
It would be a lie if I said that I had no libido after wearing a large yangmul almost the size of my forearm.
If I could compare it numerically, Ian had a much bigger shape than the others.
The reason why Ian didn’t grow into a rare parakho is because he thinks that he exists within the realm where he can control his sexual desire.
Ian also did not understand that no matter how much agony he was engulfed in, people were swept away by sexual desire that would disappear like a phantom by focusing on something else for a while.
One day I asked her parents again.
“Can I know if I get married?”
“Ian. Marriage is with someone you truly love.”
“What about your father? I heard it was an arranged marriage.”
“Certainly it was. But times have changed. It means you don’t have to sacrifice yourself for the family.”
“Still, wouldn’t it be better to bring someone who can help the family?”
“To argue about that means you don’t know anything about love. Maybe it’s because I married for my family, I don’t want to pass on that burden to you.”
“After all, you’re saying that my father married my mother because of the family.”
“It’s not like that. Well, it was a bit miserable back then. She had a woman she liked, ah.”
“See you later tonight.”
“… Ma’am. I made a big mistake. Wait, that’s not what I mean, how much I love you. Ah. Yes, I fell in love at first sight. Ian, this is love. Can you see my eyes when I look at Isolde?”
“Honey. It’s already too late. Whoops…”
“… Big hum.”
My father said he had glared at Ian almost in a fit of rage.
But Ian just shrugged her shoulders,
“I do not know. Can’t I just pick out a girl I like and marry her? Then you might fall in love. Like my father.”
“You naughty boy. When your older sister, who has missed her wedding day, hears it, she makes a very high-pitched sound.”
“Finding the one with the best conditions among them and contributing to the family…”
“If that was the case, I would have married your sister right away. Shouldn’t it have been? I didn’t expect to live as an old maid until she was that old.”
“Ian. You still don’t know We really don’t want anything from you. Even if you say you don’t inherit the family line itself, then? And to the extent that it is acceptable. It’s a bit late, but I just need to work hard with your dad to give birth to another youngest child.”
“Wait a minute, let’s talk about this, Ian, our only son, Ian, is consulting with us. Wait, stop… !”
“I’m going first.”
The mother who bit her father like that said to Ian.
Ian still can’t forget the expression his mother made at that time.
She said that with a sly smile like a fox.
“You are good at anything, but… Very occasionally there are times when I impulsively try to solve things. I am afraid that you will be swept away by your first feelings, hurting the person you love and missing out on.”
“What should I do in that case?”
“Ian. Do you really think that Dad and Mom were swept away by the times and had no choice but to meet through an arranged marriage?”
“Yes?”
“It’s a secret from Dad. That marriage, I made it so. Of course, I knew that Dad had a crush on him.”
“…”
“It’s something I shouldn’t have said as a mother… It’s far better to carry the stigma of stealing someone who belongs to you than to miss it and regret it for the rest of your life. Don’t you think so?”
“I do not know.”
“When you find someone you like, tighten them slowly so they don’t run away. Slowly. Very slowly You want to stick to it right away, but be patient. Just like this mother did. Whoops…”
“How long?”
“Well, until the girl you like whispers to you from the bottom of her heart that she loves you?”
Such a mother’s expression and words can be said to be truly shocking,
It remained like a stigma deep in Ian’s heart.
And again, years passed,
When Ian, who was somewhat cynical, softened when he realized that her cold personality was not conducive to her relationships with people,
When she corrects her hard way of speaking, does the things she wants to do just like children her age, and enters the academy like a child from a prestigious family usually does,
Just one day after her admission,
She wondered what had been bothering her parents all her life.
Ian is in love.
And the story finally returns to the present point…
“Master, I am cold. I need to hug you. Yes? I like to fit the boat. It’s getting so hot in here, hehe, I feel good…”
“Senior, this is a little out of the blue. Can you give me a serious answer?”
“If you hug me tight, yes, it feels good to sweep your back. Please touch my head Please stroke me. That will answer you. Yes…”
“Is the senior doing this? Is it because you like me? Well, it might be a strange word, but I love you…”
Eve, intoxicated by her drug, trembled as if struck by lightning at Ian’s question.
That’s what he said with ferocious eyes like a wounded cat.
“… Me, why? Really stupid I’m just doing this because it’s cold. Hee, hee, tell me the truth, tell me the truth?”
“Yes.”
“I really hate it. If you like it, it can’t be I hate you so much I hate you to death Aw, I like the head press, but I really hate you…”
“…”
Although she had heard some hurtful words, Ian didn’t show it at all.
Ian feared that, swept away by her first wave of emotions, lost in her lust, and lusting after her Eve, she would be hurt and go far away.
So her Ian, like her mother’s advice she had once heard, was patient and patient, and she intended to wait for Eve to tell her that she loved her first.
Waiting recklessly was not in her temper, so she had the knack of inventing something that would force her to say so.
Poor senior. How did you get caught by a guy like me?
Ian thought she was a mean and bitter human being.
And that,
Ian, who barely experienced his first love after her adulthood passed, was her way of treating Eve and all of her guidelines.
