Side story Father-in-law’s’. Give me your daughters! (One)
[Extra quest: Marie Dunareff]
Difficulty: S
[Performing the precepts.]
After the war ended, the chaotic atmosphere inside the academy did not go away.
Following the Kingdom Army, Holy Expedition, and Guardian Association, it has been less than two months since the end of the all-out war in which all the top honors students of level 2 or higher in the academy were mobilized.
As there were many students who were exempted from the semester altogether due to the war, students who were assigned high-ranking guardians within the academy were not often seen.
Meanwhile, there was a group of high-ranking guardians that could not go unnoticed.
Corin Locke.
Marie Dunareff.
Arisha Aden.
Hwaran.
Estel Hadassa el Ras.
Miriam Elisabeth L Ras.
Erin Danua.
Heroes of the Solar War.
Each and every one is special. They are the protagonists of that great war.
The sights of that day were seen by people from all over the continent.
The moment when the world turned upside down, the light disappeared, and the sun descended.
It just doesn’t seem real to me that these are seniors and juniors and classmates I knew well at the same academy.
However, what is certain is that the center of the group is Corinne Locke, and the women in the group are all looking at only one person.
“······hmm.”
Isabelle stroked Corinne’s jawline as she watched him go out alone recently.
The atmosphere surrounding him has been unusual recently.
From one day, Korinhi began to walk alone, and even Marie and other female students avoided him.
No, it is true that the female students are avoiding each other noticeably.
-Why are Jaedeul like that?
-I don’t know. Did you fight?
-Okay, when will you die?
In this way, their changed atmosphere attracted a lot of attention even internally.
-Is this a love issue?
-We had a fight about love issues.
– Well, it was time for something to come to a conclusion.
Those who were quick-witted realized that the female-oriented group centered around Corinne was stranded due to dating issues.
In such a cold atmosphere, the men at the academy harbor one ambition.
-Maybe me too?
-If I attack now, wouldn’t there be a chance?
-If Koga picks one person and catches him, the rest are all free, right?
-It was an ambiguous relationship back then, but now…
Aren’t they all beautiful women? It is no wonder that men who were compared to Corin and did not dare to step forward became ambitious.
-Hey, Marie! If it’s okay, would you like to have dinner tonight?
-Arisha, shall we train together in the weight training room?
-Hwaran said you like fish? There is a house I know well…
Marie has a down-to-earth atmosphere and gets along well with everyone by sharing potatoes.
Alisha is so dumb that she looks like she has a lot of gaps.
Hwaran and others who have no sense of distance regardless of gender.
The Betas, who were looking for an opportunity to become the alpha themselves because they couldn’t see the alpha ruling the lion pride, were drooling…
-sorry! I never thought of XX like that! Let’s stay friends!
-Uh…I don’t like it?
-······why me?
Yes.
Just because the alpha is not visible does not mean that all betas can become alphas.
“Well, of course it will happen.”
Isabelle chuckled as she listened to the boys’ feelings sinking in various places.
“I heard you confessed to 20 people today? How about you, popular girl~?”
“Ugh…don’t be like that! It’s burdensome.”
Isabelle played a mischievous prank on the popular girl who was constantly breaking records.
“So~ What’s going on with Corin?”
“······.”
After seeing Marie’s reaction, Isabelle was convinced that her prediction was correct.
Yes, it was clear that he had a problem with women when he saw a guy who usually walked around with women like that suddenly walking out alone.
He even seemed to avoid not only the group he usually attended, but also women themselves.
Isabelle saw this situation quite differently because she knew that many of the women with whom Corinne was surprisingly friendly had dark intentions towards Corinne.
‘It’s time to decide someone!’
It wasn’t that Corinne herself didn’t notice the kindness of the women around her.
He seemed to understand that the women in the so-called Guardians, including Marie, liked him.
‘The big war is over, and we are praised as heroes, so now is the time to think about love and marriage issues.’
Not that fast.
From Noble mtl dot com
There are quite a few noble men and women at Merkava Academy.
It is common for them to enter into arranged marriages from a young age. Even students who were commoners become knights and wizards with guaranteed success.
There are many cases where noble families or wealthy people who do not have a guardian within the family invade their sons or daughters.
Well, as long as you have to do Guardians activities, there are a lot more cases where the same Guardians see eye to eye.
In any case, Corinne Locke is a legendary leader who has surpassed blue chip stocks in the marriage market and has been hitting record highs every day since listing.
He achieved the legend of going from level 5 to level 1 knight overnight, and became a special knight, president of the Guardians Association, and the ‘sun’ in the prophecy of the Unified Holy Church. War hero…
A super blue-chip stock that soars endlessly without a high point.
Isn’t he the best son-in-law who has already bid for Duke Dunaref, sword master Aden, and the royal family of El Ras?
‘It’s not that Marie is outclassed, but her competitors are also formidable.’
Isabelle clicked her tongue as she looked at the numerous war heroes and rivals of her friend who held absolute social status.
“So… who do you think Corin has feelings for? Anyway, isn’t Marie the most likely one?”
“······.”
Oh no, Isabelle felt like it was a mistake when she saw Marie who didn’t react in any way.
To be honest, I thought Marie was the one who made the most progress toward a relationship with Corinne.
“Dogs are really funny too. How much you did for Marie!”
This girl, whom Corin sacrificed herself to save, showed him infinite kindness and support.
Right now, the Corrin Guardians’ magnificent office, dozens of wyverns, and even Hresvelg, which is said to be less than the price of a feather with an ordinary person’s salary!
“Well, don’t be like that… Corin has something on his mind too.”
“What are you thinking? I must have received an offer to be the sire of the royal family! I don’t need Jo Kang Ji-cheo anymore, right?”
“Jo, Jo Gangjicheo?”
“This is why I told you from the beginning. Don’t give too much away. When a woman gives something to a man, he calmly accepts it, but later says, ‘You did that because you liked it, right?’ and throws it away like a devoted partner!”
“No, that’s not true! Corrin is not that kind of person!”
“Ugh…! I heard that every time I see you, Marie, I get frustrated and throw a tantrum.”
Isabelle felt sorry for her best friend who was so pushy when it came to dating.
‘Do you think Marie lacks beauty or has a bad personality?’
They even have a lot of money, a lot of power, and a lot of land. Corin Locke had to kneel down when Marie asked him out.
But now Corrin’s position was very different from before.
He was a hero of the world, the strongest man at the peak of an era, and there were countless women around him.
It’s a position where you can choose to eat.
So I felt even more embarrassed. My friend’s stake in achieving that success is not small.
“What kind of b*tch are you? The fox b*tch who snatched that swallow away from our Marie?”
“······Using energy.”
“huh?”
Isabelle listened to Marie who was muttering.
“I decided to get married.”
“Huh?!”
Isabelle could not believe her ears.
marriage? Without even dating?
no no.
Okay, is there even a need to date?
To be honest, Marie and Corinne aren’t officially dating, but haven’t they done everything they need to do?
We go on dates from time to time, have close skinship, and have children… We also have biological children who inherited our DNA.
In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that their relationship lasted for nearly three years. At this rate, we’ve been dating for a long time.
“Fast, so fast? But why…”
Why have you been avoiding Corin so much lately? Did the women in the same group act as if they were keeping each other in check?
“Hey, Isabelle! I have a problem!”
“okay···?”
worry? If it were the Marie I knew, she would have been using the national budget to prepare for the wedding by now.
“say it.”
“Umm…”
Unlike Isabelle, who responded to her concerns, Marie did not readily respond even when she actually spoke.
She opened her mouth with difficulty.
“Well, what should I do to become a crony?”
“???????”
Isabelle, unable to understand what he said for a while, gaped and remained silent for a long time.
The explanation continued, and after hearing the agreed upon issues── only after hearing the stories of the remaining ‘six’ did Isabelle open her mouth…
“I······.”
“I?”
4 years of friendship. Isabelle was the first to raise her hand and hit her best friend.
“Come to your senses, Lee!!”
“Huh!?”
* * * *
Marriage is not something you do alone.
Marriage is a union of two families and is also a family matter.
As a member of the green MZ generation in Korea, this is a difficult issue to agree on, but I am not old enough to admit that this is reality.
“Ma! Li! E! Ma! Li! E!
“Corrin…! Corrin…! Corrin…!”
“All of us! Let us joyfully welcome the heroes of the Sun War!”
“”Waaa…!””
The hospitality…is excessive.
I was exempted from the first semester of my third year due to ‘personal reasons’.
It was a small compensation given to a student who served in the war, but I didn’t bother to pay it because I wanted to enjoy my school life, and I used it to come to the South like this.
The purpose is consent to marriage. In addition, the harem is revealed…
“Wow, there are a lot of people.”
“I heard that they were sent back when there were over 100,000 people…”
I didn’t think my wife’s family, Duke Dunaref, would be an easy opponent, but…
“Miss Marie! Here! Look here!”
“Our girl is pretty!”
“It’s beautiful! It’s cool!”
If you do this wrong, won’t you get beaten up by the crowd?
Dunarev’s position in the south is absolute. In addition, Marie is pretty, strong, has a good personality, and is the next Duke of Dunareff… Her popularity is no less than that of a top star.
“aaah! Deokgu oppa! Please look here!”
“How does it feel to be this month’s fashion magazine model!”
“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!”
-What is this guy’s popularity?
“······.”
what. Why is Deokgu so popular?
“How do these people know Deokgu?”
“You didn’t know Corinne? After the Deokgu War, you became a fashion model.”
“······yes?”
“The modeling fee was donated to post-war support! I also donated it to the National Kennel Association and a homeless dog adoption center! Deok-gu looks like Corin, so he has a very kind heart~”
“······.”
They say a child grows up in an instant.
Our daughter, Deok-gu, born from our heart, is now doing better in social life than her father…
“Corinne, look over there. It’s daddy and mommy!”
at las.
I swallowed my saliva and looked at the Duke and Duchess of Dunareff walking from afar.
“Corin Locke.”
“Duke Mard…”
In this war, there were many heroes who fought on the front lines, including Marie and I, but the one who supported those heroes was none other than Duke Dunareff.
Without his decision to use up all of the year’s food production and stored supplies, he would not have been able to persuade the northerners at the northern gateway, and a supply war mobilizing hundreds of thousands of troops would have been impossible.
But regardless of that, there is no change in the fact that the duke hates me very much. I have to convince this person.
“Let’s say hello later.”
Duke Mard calmed his frown, placed his hand on my shoulder, and then raised his hand towards the crowd.
-Wow!
People who are enthusiastic. Indeed, Duke Dunareff. This level of showmanship seems natural. He performed a loudspeaker spell on his own and began speaking in a deep voice to the entire crowd.
“The scars of the great war have not yet gone away. It was the blood and sweat of the patriotic spirits and our southerners that led to victory in the War of the Sun——”
The atmosphere is suitably lifted by commemorating the soldiers and acknowledging that the South’s support was crucial.
People were secretly proud that they had played a sufficient role in this war, and showed endless kindness to the war heroes Marie and I.
“I would like to take this opportunity today to name war heroes and praise them in the name of the South.”
“My proud daughter, Princess Marie Dunareff of Dunareff——”
Marie is called first, and other veterans who participated in the event are also called.
He presented them with medals and plaques in the name of the dukedom and promised them a considerable amount of pension.
Finally it was my turn.
“Head of Baron Locke, the standard-bearer family of Duke Dunareff. President of the Guardian Association. Special knight of the continent’s public figures.”
First, they show off their secret friendship by revealing that they belong to the standard-bearing family of the duke. But I had no complaints.
In the first place, my baronetcy came about when Marie gave it to me and even gave me the title.
His Majesty the King also said he would give me a title, but it was even more special because it was given to Marie.
“We award the Golden Potato Medal to Corin Locke, the Knight of the Sun, who subdued the enemy monsters and brought light back to the world through his heroic performance in this war.”
Golden Potato Flower Medal. Although it is called a potato flower, it is an extremely beautiful flower.
Potatoes have been a grateful food that has supported the starving common people since ancient times and were the crop that laid the foundation of the South.
That is why in Dunarev, in the south, the potato flower is selected as the most beautiful flower.
“Also, Baron Corrin Locke inherits the territory and earldom of the Kadriol region under the Dunaref duchy.”
“······!”
I was surprised by the large gift from Duke Mard.
The County of Kadriol is one of the most valuable lands among the 25 provinces owned by the Duke of Mard.
It has three mines, including diamond, gemstone, and gold mines, as well as an industrial city where jewelry processing is a business.
In other words, Duke Mard granted me three mines and an entire city.
“Wow, it’s too much, isn’t it?”
“My arm hurts. Grab it quickly.”
I accepted Duke Mard’s medal and plaque with trembling hands.
Me, I’m rich…!
-Waaa!
-Congratulations!
-Long live Corin Locke!
-Long live the Knight of the Sun!
The medal award ceremony ended with everyone’s welcome and applause.
············
·········
······
“Whoa~ Corin, try this. It’s a boiled potato made from the biggest potato of the year!”
“What did you sprinkle on the ground that made it this big?”
We briefly held an award ceremony and welcome ceremony while eating potatoes the size of a human body. Marie, who was offering me potatoes at the banquet hall, tapped them and pointed to one side with her finger.
“Corin, it’s daddy.”
“Keuhum······.”
I swallow my saliva out of nervousness. It has finally come. I looked at her for support, but Marie pouted.
“Try hard.”
“Heh, help….”
slap! Marie turns her head away. It seems like I still don’t like the harem plan.
I’m sorry, Marie. Because he is this kind of boyfriend…
“Whoa…”
Putting aside my guilty feelings about Marie, I turned to Duke Mard, who was standing with a solemn expression.
“Duke──”
“no.”
“I haven’t even said anything yet──”
“Not my daughter.”
I was speechless at his resolute attitude.
“Duke. I saved the world.”
“whatever.”
What should I do? He is a hero who saved the world, but isn’t it the rule of the country to give him a princess?
Those words were swallowed in my throat.
“Hey, still…”
“No. You gave me a medal.”
“No──”
“You gave me territory.”
“excuse me······.”
“You also gave me three mines.”
“Duke?”
“That’s not enough, you’re going to take my daughter too?”
“······.”
The duke pouted and had a bad attitude. This person… is being unreasonable!
“Duke. I already promised to marry Marie!”
“What the f*ck?!”
We can’t stop here. The Duke of Mard is expected to be the most difficult. This person must be confronted head-on.
“Father-in-law! Give me your daughter!”
“Who is my father-in-law!”
“father!”
“I told you not to call me father!”
From Noble mtl dot com
I can’t back down. I clung to him and begged him to give me Marie.
“Let go! Won’t you let go, you bastard?! Huh?”
“Oh, duke! Are you talking rudely to a war hero? After all the pretending you were friendly with me earlier!”
“I just took a picture for the press, you bastard! You can’t give me my daughter!”
“please!”
“I can’t give it to you!”
How long did it hang like that? The Duchess of Ellencia was also present and met face-to-face at her home.
“Ha… Okay, let’s hear the story.”
“Thank you, father-in-law!”
“I told you not to call me father-in-law!”
“mother in law!”
“Oh my~”
I spilled out the whole story. The purpose of this visit is not just to marry Marie.
He also spoke frankly about the harem.
“······.”
“······.”
A long silence passes between me and Duke Mard. He looked at me and Marie in turn, trembling with an expression of disbelief.
“this person······.”
A pupil that causes earthquakes. My trembling knees shake the desk. I felt a wrath in him that I could not hide.
“You bastard trash, no bigger than a potato sprout!”
I couldn’t bear to refute it.
