Incompatible Interspecies Wives chapter 103

103 – The Direction of My Heart (2)

Under tightly closed eyelids, memories of the past flickered.

“…Hiding here again.”

A warm voice calls out to Xian.

Shien buried her head in her lap, she looked up at the voice calling her name.

I didn’t even have to look at his face. She knew just by hearing the voice.

I couldn’t help but know that someone else had come to comfort me.

“Huh…Bell…”

Calling her nickname, Shien jumped out of her seat at that moment and hugged Berg.

The moment she hugs him, the fishy smell of blood comes from her.

Shien was surprised only then and checked Berg’s appearance.

“It’s blood… Bloody, Bell!”

Berg shrugged his shoulders. It seems like nothing.

Then he hugged Shien more tightly in her arms and stroked her hair.

She cried out even as Shien was petted by him.

“Huh…Are you fighting because of me again?”

“…I fought because I didn’t like him.”

Shien could see that those words were Berg’s consideration, which she did not want to burden herself with.

Berg was fighting for himself again.

She must have had a fight with the big man who made fun of her at the orphanage.

“Bee, Bell…! He was 4 years older than you…! What would you do if you were seriously hurt!”

She was furious and angry.

Her berg is what she sometimes forgets, but the berg is now the only thing she has left.

My parents passed away, and I lost ties with my relatives.

The only person left to love was Berg.

I didn’t like seeing him do such a risky thing.

Please don’t do this.

“Don’t you remember the last time you were hurt? Why do you keep-“

“I hate you getting hurt more.”

Berg finally spat out at her anger.

Shien frowned.

She didn’t hurt herself.

What are you talking about?

“I…!”

But Shien tried to talk her out and her throat choked.

Her berg’s straight eyes were watching her.

I could see what Berg was talking about.

I didn’t mean that her body was hurt.

I meant hurting my heart.

Shien shed tears again.

“…Huh…Huh…”

She couldn’t figure out how she could be so comforting every time.

Berg slowly wiped away her tears.

He smiled.

“Crying again. Stop crying, you mannequin.”

“I told you not to make fun of me for peeing…”

Shien returned to Berg’s arms to hide her expression.

Berg accepted her, giggling at her again.

.

.

As time passed, the two became familiar again.

Sien lay on Berg’s thighs and watched the setting sun.

I lost my parents…But thanks to Berg, I was able to do my best.

It was more reliable than anything else that he was by my side.

I was able to stand up because of him, and I could live because of him.

I am happy to be with him every moment.

It was all because of him that I was able to overcome the great tragedy.

So the more that happened, the clearer it became.

Sian already knew what was most important in my life.

Does Berg know?

Can you guess?

How precious he is to you.

He probably liked Berg twice as much as Berg liked himself.

Berg was her treasure.

A treasure I want to hide from everyone.

That’s why I didn’t like his handsome appearance.

I didn’t like drawing attention.

Sure, though everything else covered that little flaw.

I felt like my heart was connected with Berg.

You can tell what he’s thinking and how he’s feeling even if he doesn’t speak.

Right now, he was thinking of himself as the most precious thing in the world…And Shien thought so too.

Nothing could come before Berg.

Even if the world is rough, I would be happy if Bergman was by my side.

She finally whispered to her heart.

“Bell…?”

“Yes.”

“…Can you throw me away?”

Berg laughed.

He says.

“Why did I abandon you?”

“…”

“You are good. Even if I die, I won’t abandon you.”

Shien shook her head.

“I will be by your side forever.”

He smiled.

“…That’s what I promised.”

“Yes. I swear.”

Sian said clearly.

There was no reason why I couldn’t keep this promise.

“…”

“…”

Berg and I meet eyes. At the same time, his heart swelled.

Consciousness instantly matures.

And as she matured, there was only one thing she could say to Berg.

“Love…”

With that drool that twitched her lips, Shien awoke from her dream.

The berg disappeared, revealing a dark ceiling.

The words I was trying to convey are scattered into the darkness.

“…”

From noble mtl dot com

The brilliant past disappears beyond memory. His warmth also moved away from his body.

Every time Berg dreams, his heart aches as if he is about to break up again.

Tears flowed slowly from her eyes.

A promise I couldn’t keep lingered in my mind.

.

.

.

Early in the morning, Shien put on her bitter smile.

Check the letter returned from the church.

Her eyes read the same part over and over again.

‘There is no change in Berg’s personal situation.’

Her little news supported her.

For the sake of Berg’s safety, she was participating in this war.

It feels like everything is rewarded just by saying that he is living well.

“…”

If there’s just one thing I can be greedy for, is it?

…I want to see Berg from afar.

Now that I don’t know how the war will eventually go, I couldn’t appear in front of him.

So I just wanted to look at it from a distance.

I just want to see that beloved face again.

But Shien finally shook her head.

If you see him…Maybe that’s it.

She will never return to the battlefield.

She knew instinctively that she would go crazy wanting to be by Berg’s side.

So I couldn’t.

– Bang!

And at that moment, the hero Felix slams the desk and expresses his anger.

Shien folded the note she received from the church and put it in her pocket, then focused on her group.

“…The Jackson family bastards…”

Felix grinds his teeth at the same time.

“…”

“…”

Everyone could understand Felix’s anger.

The hero’s party has now come to the Jackson family’s estate.

It was to clear out the monsters in the surrounding area and secure a supply route leading to the forefront.

But the work was moving slowly.

The fight over succession to the title in the Jackson family was a problem.

As a human being, Prince Jackson accepted polygamy without hesitation and had numerous wives.

The problem was that when he died, he was unable to decide on his successor, and as a result, many of his half-brothers started fighting.

As a result, the chaos in Yeongji accelerated, and nothing worked properly.

Numerous knights and soldiers were busy lined up.

Of course I couldn’t fight.

The centaur Akran also said, swallowing bitterness.

“Felix, calm down.”

“How cool! How much damage do you see because of the Jackson family bastards…! Even at this moment…!”

Silprien also assisted Akran in calming Felix.

“…Still, Prin-nim decided to take our side. Believe that-“

Prine was the son of the late Prince Jackson with his first wife.

“-You know it’s not a matter of believing or not, Silprien.”

“…”

“There is not enough soldiers. Even if all the soldiers of the Jackson family help, how can you go to war with only those who are on the side of Prin while selling your hat!”

Felix shook his head.

“…There is no answer at this rate. I have to do something.”

Akran scratched his chin.

“For example?”

“…Either we side with Prin and put an end to this battle for succession, or use the damage we caused to imprison everyone…! Anyway, I have no more time to waste on this fight…!”

Silprien spoke kindly again.

“Calm down, Felix. The more you get angry, the more you may make poor judgments.”

And at Silprien’s second intervention, Felix let out a long sigh.

Following Silprien’s advice, close his eyes and let go of his anger.

“As I said, Prin-nim said he would take the side for now… So I’ll put out the urgent fire with that power.”

“…”

“For more than that, it might not be a bad idea to ask Gail for help.”

Felix shook his head.

“…Master is busy right now.”

“Is that so?”

The subject slightly changed, and Felix gradually calmed down as well. He said.

“…There is news that you visited Hong Yeom Dan.”

My eyes are focused on Xien for a moment.

“…”

But Shien shrugged her shoulders.

Because Berg, the controversial human mercenary, was not Bell.

Felix continues.

“…Yes, getting help from the mercenaries is also a way.”

But Sylprien shook her head again.

“How will I pay? No more burdening the King…”

The hero finally let out a sigh.

“… Ha.”

No one could come up with a sharp idea.

****

“…Mmm.”

Ner wakes up with a mild headache.

I think I drank too much the other day.

I was still tired. Lack of sleep

She reflexively groped her side to help her fall asleep.

– Took.

“…”

But I can’t touch the warmth that should be there.

Ner slowly opened her eyes.

The next empty seat.

Berg seemed to have already woken up and left.

“…….”

Seeing his empty seat makes me fall asleep.

I still wanted to sleep more, but… I feel cold because Berg is not by my side.

Ner sighed and slowly raised his upper body.

She looked outside the window at the sunlight streaming in.

It’s as if everything that happened yesterday is like a dream.

I still can’t believe that the dreamy thing happened.

‘I love you.’

Ner touched my mouth.

I can’t believe he whispered those words with his lips.

“…”

It wasn’t that I didn’t want to do something that didn’t exist.

She borrowed the alcohol, but… Her heart didn’t change.

It was not a word that could be spat out carelessly in the spirit of alcohol.

Especially for her race, it was the most heavy word.

It was just morning, so I was a little embarrassed.

She finally understood what the old woman she had just met said.

Even when love came to me, it was difficult to admit it, and even if I did admit it, I felt ashamed.

I didn’t want to shout and promote and boast about my heart.

As precious as it is, I wanted to keep it more secretly.

Also, it was Berg, which had now become her weakness.

It is a love that cannot be undone.

I didn’t want to be caught as a weakness and be swayed here and there.

So I still approach that mind carefully.

As it is now, wouldn’t it be fine to slowly get closer to Berg naturally?

Anyway, time is surprisingly enough.

It’s a lifetime.

We will be by each other’s side until death.

I have already been married, and there is no position closer to Berg than this.

There was no reason to rush the progress of the relationship.

The whole process of love will happen naturally.

“…”

Ner’s heart trembled again at that reality.

Her tail waggled wildly.

What would someone think of her now if she saw her?

A noble from the Blackwood family fell in love with a human mercenary from the slums.

Shall we play? Shall I laugh

It was an irrelevant story anyway.

She stopped thinking about it.

Anyway, being by Berg’s side was more important than anything else.

“…”

Suddenly, I was concerned about the quiet house.

I tried to wait, but it is as quiet as a dead mouse.

No sound.

Are you home alone?

Ner stumbles out of her bed.

“Berg?”

She came out into the living room and looked for Berg.

He was nowhere to be seen.

“…Arwin?”

Ner went on to find Arwyn as well.

But Arwin, as expected, was not at home.

“…”

Suddenly, that unrealistic moment of yesterday returns to reality.

You can see the situation you are in more clearly.

She fell in love with Berg.

…But Berg was human.

A human race that can command many women.

I already have two wives.

He’s even giving his attention to Arwin.

To Arwyn, who once wished Berg to die.

She also has an unknown liquid, she says.

Ner put on her light clothes and stepped out of the house.

She wandered around town looking for Berg.

“Ner, good morning!”

Her human mercenaries greet her.

“Yes. Have you seen Berg?”

Ner asked about Berg’s whereabouts whenever that happened.

According to the mercenaries’ eyewitness information, Ner moved her steps.

Soon, she spotted Berg from a distance.

“Are there any inconveniences?”

“Thanks to you, Vice-captain.”

He was looking around at the villagers.

…With Arwin and pods.

“… Ha.”

Ner let out a laugh involuntarily.

Her wagging tail stiffened.

As you become aware of the heart of love, one emotion becomes that much more certain.

As much as the depth of love, of course, a deep heart.

…Jealousy.

At least, I was used to Berg taking care of Arwyn, so I put up with it.

But the feeling of dislike was clearer than ever.

Did Berg leave himself early in the morning to get along with Arwin?

From noble mtl dot com

“…”

Ner could tell what his priorities were.

You don’t have to worry about getting close to Berg.

Because there is endless time ahead.

…So maybe, pushing Arwin away was the first thing.
