200. Daily Couple (2)
“Is the Schluss now?”
“·······.”
The door burst open.
Spotting a grinning Iris on the other side, Emilia swallowed her saliva.
“I… Heinkel-nim is currently out of office.”
“Then I’ll wait inside.”
“I think it will take a little longer. Please come back later-“
“You’re not going to stay out tonight, are you? Then I’ll wait inside.”
“Yes…Then do so, saintess.”
Emilia clicked her tongue inside her and let her Iris in.
She lied when she said it would take a long time.
Since Schluss checked the report card and said he was going to meet Assistant Erwin for a while and left.
“What’s the matter? If it’s urgent, I can contact Heinkel.”
“I don’t have anything in particular. I’m just here to chat.”
“·······.”
Emilia strained her face and managed to keep a smile.
This human used to visit only for essentials, but now he came and went as if it were his own home.
Where did the saintess’ dignity go?
Feeling a little annoyed, Emilia headed towards the kitchen.
“I’ll serve you tea right away.”
“No. It’s okay to hand over the tea later when Schluss arrives. More than that, I want to chat with Emilia.”
“With me…?”
Was it not Schluss who wanted to chat, but me?
Puzzled, Emilia turned around and came to the living room.
As she sat down on her couch facing Iris, she felt something strange.
She had never faced a saint like this before.
“How’s your progress lately?”
“How’s your progress?”
“I was asking if my relationship with Schluss was going well.”
“Oh, no! It can’t be! Heinkel-sama and I aren’t like that at all…”
Surprised, Emilia clenched her hand and denied it.
She wondered if Iris had figured it all out, so she was nervous, but realizing that she had just stabbed her, she quickly calmed down her agitation.
The engagement with Schluss should not be disclosed to the outside world yet.
Later, when the cooperation between the kingdom and the empire became more visible, it had to be used to solidify the alliance.
‘As expected, no progress has been made yet.’
Meanwhile, Iris was feeling relieved.
There was a time when she was cheering for Emilia and Schluss.
However, I felt frustrated as the relationship between the two did not seem to be getting any closer no matter how much time passed.
‘Both of them are very shy, so they’ve never even kissed, let alone engaged.’
Then she had nothing to feel guilty about.
She gave enough time, but it was Emilia who didn’t seize the opportunity.
From now on, it was Iris who carefully thought about whether she could aim from this side.
Clap······
“I’m here.”
“Are you here, Mr. Heinkel?”
Then the door slammed open and Emilia stood up with a bright smile on her face.
She goes around expressing that she likes her so much, but she hasn’t made any progress yet.
You’ll be relieved that you can always see Schluss and her face at home.
That felt a bit outrageous.
“Tea is ready.”
“Thank you, Emilia.”
“No.”
Soon Schluss sat across from me and the car was coloneled.
She smiled, and Emilia responded with a slightly uncomfortable smile.
She says that her man is talking to another woman and she is uncomfortable.
A sense of mischief kicked in from within Iris.
“If it wasn’t for you, I would have missed the top spot.”
“Huh… If you’re really grateful, is it okay if I ask for a reward?”
“Reward? I just want to give you anything I can.”
Iris stood up and walked over to Schluse, holding on to her skirt.
He pulled up his long skirt to give a glimpse of his legs.
However, the insensitive Schluse didn’t notice the intention at all and was just puzzled.
“Yes, please do me one favor.”
“Tell me.”
Sitting down next to him, Iris put her mouth to Schluse’s ear and gently covered it with her hand.
“Will you be my husband for just one day?”
“·······?”
Her voice was so loud that it was colorless to have her mouth close.
Of course, it was done with the intention of letting Emilia hear it.
Unsurprisingly, Emilia couldn’t contain her agitation and kept her mouth wide open.
Iris felt a great deal of catharsis with that alone.
‘It’s calm…’
Iris peeked curiously at Schluse’s reaction, and she was a little disappointed.
She looked a little embarrassed, but there was no blush on her face, nor was there a hint of shyness on her part.
Iris got pouty and sat down again in her straight posture.
“I don’t know where the story came from. Asking me to be your husband for one day.”
“I’m a saint. I don’t know if you know it, but a saintess is a job for life. So she can’t date a man or marry her all the time until she dies.”
“Then isn’t even a one-day marriage ban…”
“It’s kind of like playing house, but wouldn’t it be okay to deviate like this? It’s just for one day. I think even Aegis-sama will tolerate this much, considering the faith I will dedicate my whole life to.”
“·······.”
Schlus’s confused expression.
Iris let out a shallow sigh and regretted it.
She tried to bully the arrogant and easy-going commoner, but she herself got hurt in her heart.
“Good. Married couple for one day. When is the best time?”
“Ah? Eh? Are you okay? Really?”
“Who in this world would dare to marry her saintess? It would be a fool to miss this opportunity.”
“That’s right…”
She is, after all, the only example of being a living, breathing saint.
If it was a married life with such a saint, you would be curious…
Iris only smiled at her bitterly.
She seems to be nothing more and nothing less than the object of her curiosity.
“Above all, I think my married life with you will be quite enjoyable.”
“·······?!”
However, Iris flinched and shuddered at Schluse’s words immediately followed.
“Why?”
“It’s written. It’s hard to pinpoint and explain the reason, but I think it’s for some reason.”
“·······.”
I see.
Schluss thinks he’ll enjoy living with me.
I don’t think she’s a gloomy, suspicious woman who knows the future by herself.
“Is it possible right now? By this time tomorrow. I want to live as Schluse’s daily wife for just 24 hours.”
“Today tomorrow… Um. I have an empty schedule, so I can make time for the whole day.”
Iris’ expression brightened even more.
She didn’t expect it to be so easy.
From noble mtl dot com.
She thought she’d be busy for the time being, since Schluss had obtained an important office.
“I… I’ll go to the grocery store, then. I think I’m going to run out of ingredients.”
Unable to see the two of her, Emilia turned her back.
She said that for the next 24 hours, she would like to empty her mansion altogether.
I didn’t want to make food for the two of us to enjoy together.
But considering the sudden happenings that would happen when only the two of them were left, it was impossible to leave the mansion empty.
‘Annoying…’
Obviously I was the one who said it was fine whether it was the second or third time.
Even so, Emilia was feeling annoyed for no reason. She
She hates me She seems to have made herself a contradiction.

“That… Iris.”
“Yes?”
“What is this now?”
A leisurely afternoon tea time.
I questioned myself as I sipped my tea.
“Well, that’s what couples do when they’re together on the holidays.”
“·······?”
This is it?
Is this normal posture of sitting on my lap, facing each other and clinging to each other so much that it’s hard to even flinch?
Do you think couples in this world spend their holidays like this?
Or was it because I had never been married before?
I definitely got an answer, but the questions continued to grow.
“Why? No?”
“I don’t hate it…”
Should I say that it is too stimulating in broad daylight?
It was a difficult position for me to endure.
Because even now, I had my back pulled all the way back and barely touched it.
“It’s a bit inconvenient to move around.”
“Don’t act. It’s just like this.”
“·······.”
Yes.
It would be a wiser choice to enjoy the present moment rather than thinking about what to do.
Matana Iris says A saintess is a being who must keep her chastity for the rest of her life.
Until the ending, the paradigm of religion will not change at all, so the day when Iris and her husband can play as a married couple will never come again.
I put down the already cold teacup and hugged Iris’s waist.
“Huh?!”
“Why but.”
“I just got goosebumps all of a sudden…”
“Did you hate my touch that much?”
“That’s not it! I’m just surprised… It’s the first time I’ve experienced something like this…”
Iris showed a cute reaction and she burrowed into my arms even more.
As if she was ashamed to show her face, she buried her face in my shirt and rubbed it.
‘Really crazy…’
I realized that Iris was amazing because they were so closely attached.
It was hidden behind her clothes, but the size was beyond imagination.
I don’t think it will fit in her hand if I touch it…
Damn it. What am I thinking about the saintess right now?
I told you not to look at fruits you can’t eat anyway.
“Hey, Schluse…”
“Why but.”
Iris, who had been hugging me for a while, raised her head.
“That way of speaking. Would you like to stop for today? It’s too formal to call it a conversation between husband and wife.”
“Then would you like to stop using honorifics too?”
“Ah… This has become a habit…”
“That’s shameful.”
“I’m sorry…”
Are you trying to draw a line?
It’s a daily couple, but it’s not like real couples do.
I already knew that, but I couldn’t help feeling a bit sad.
“But being a couple… Is it really fun just to cuddle like this all day?”
“Hmm. Well, it depends on the person, right?”
Although we weren’t married, I was happy just cuddling with him.
To be able to live so peacefully meant that there was no treatment or rehabilitation schedule for that day.
For about 300 days of the year, I was asleep after taking medicine, asleep after surgery, or complaining of pain while undergoing rehabilitation, so there were few days when I could live peacefully.
“It’s fortunate. I was worried that I might be too lazy to be happy. Even just doing this, it’s so warm and comfortable… I feel like taking a nap even though it’s still broad daylight.”
“Then come on. I’ll wake you up when you want.”
“I can’t do that. It’s only 24 hours and it’s such a waste to spend time napping.”
I was the kind of guy who could give Iris a level of comfort.
She was a little proud.
She can be a haven for a saint who lives under her stress here and there.
Iris also kept close to me and tried to hug me, but she raised her head as if something came to her mind.
And then her Iris’ pelvis got closer, so I had to pull my back more from there.
Damn it. I’m dying of discomfort because her back curves like a bow.
“If you’re a couple… You’re supposed to kiss as well, right?”
“I’m not talking about doing it on the back of your hand.”
“That can’t be the case. Don’t embarrass me.
“Can a saint be like this?”
“It’s not a crime if you don’t get caught.”
“Who is it…”
This is absurd.
Is this the line that will come out of the mouth of the saintess?
“Only once. Do it once, we. So that there are no regrets left.”
A sweet voice flowed into my ears.
My mind was slowly but surely going numb.
