Incompatible Interspecies Wives chapter 134

134 – Confidence (1)

There are a lot of people who talk about me when they see me.

Based on the previous conversation, suspicions and speculations were rampant.

The mercenaries of the Red Flame Team kept their mouth shut, keeping an eye on me, but the soldiers of the royal family, or the residents of the territory who saw me and Shien couldn’t stop whispering.

‘I think you had a relationship with the saintess?’

‘What did you see… It seemed like we were in love, but it’s just a relationship…’

‘I didn’t expect the saintess to cry like that…’

‘Have you known each other since childhood?’

I didn’t react to anything and drove the horse.

It was just heavy, as if my heart was being weighed down.

Still, as if he had abandoned his consciousness by Shien’s side, he was chewing only on her last appearance.

But at the same time, I realize that I shouldn’t be doing this.

There were two wives who constantly looked at me sideways.

“…”

“…”

He didn’t say anything, but his expression wasn’t good.

Of course it was inevitable.

It was all the more so since my past was known in such a messy way.

I was also at fault.

When the opportunity came before, I should have let them know without fear.

“….”

I took it for granted that they were offended.

I’ve been trying to get closer to you, but it’s revealed that we have a relationship like this.

I was hiding this kind of relationship under my nose.

The two were already entangled in the human culture of polygamy.

As different cultures, Ner and Arwin may have felt like collectibles themselves.

I did my best not to feel that way, but it was a different story from my efforts.

It might have been even more humiliating since they were nobles who were married to me, a commoner.

It is known that I have another fate.

How can I take this well?

On the contrary, it would have been even weirder if they didn’t even care about the relationship between me and Shien.

So I knew.

I have conversations to have with my wives.

But I couldn’t do it right now.

There were so many eyes to see.

In an instant, the procession stops.

Adam was looking back from the front.

While we were distracted, it seemed that someone stopped us from behind.

Unsurprisingly, the person is approaching, breaking through the prominences.

The members made a way for him, and the person directly approached me on horseback.

It was a king.

“Berg.”

He said as he drove the horse.

My brother also turned his head and stood next to me.

Stay with me.

“…?”

It was the same with Ner and Arwin.

They sat next to me, hiding their confusion.

Even so, he didn’t stop looking at me sideways.

I can feel how many things I want to say.

“…Causing trouble.”

The king came closer and spoke in a quiet voice.

It was hard to hear even if it was a little far away.

He seemed to be conscious of the gaze around him.

“…”

I didn’t answer.

I had nothing to say anyway.

The king didn’t seem to have much to say.

He was just staring at me.

There was no sign of being surprised at the relationship between me and Shien.

As if he knew everything.

He rode closer.

Then he said.

“…Follow us to the capital, Berg.”

Adam frowns.

Ner and Arwin are also frightened from both sides.

“…Yes?”

Adam hyung raised his voice as the representative.

The king did not change his words.

“Leave the Red Flame Team for a while and come with me.”

Adam’s brother rode a little further and stood between the king and the king.

“…May I ask why?”

“Be on your guard, Adam. I am not doing this to harm you.”

“…”

The king explained.

“…We have no choice but to be in this situation. How could a mercenary who had a strong connection with the saintess go back without taking any action?”

“….”

“…You have to come to the capital and pretend to have a conversation…I think people who hear this news will at least understand it. Think about it. If word spreads that the saintess of innocence had a man…”

Ner grabbed the hem of his clothes.

Arwin looked sideways at me.

The king continued.

“…A lot of people will probably be anxious about that rumor. And in order to win the war, you have to manage that anxiety as a king.”

“….”

The king’s explanation immediately felt its own validity and its own awkwardness.

I let out a short sigh.

…Actually, I realized that I couldn’t refuse the king’s orders even if I felt embarrassed.

Unexpected things happen one after another.

I am put in a situation where I can’t rest even if I want to take a break.

It was a familiar feeling.

This feeling of having no time to breathe.

…Recently, I’ve been getting that break through Nere and Arwin… But the problem is, that wasn’t possible right now.

Adam, who had been standing still, looked back at me slowly, as if he felt the validity of the king’s words as well as I did.

I met his brother’s eyes.

A worried expression.

It was an older brother’s expression that I see quite often these days.

I was just sorry.

Gail appears from behind me and says.

“…You’ll be fine, Berg. Right now, it would be right to follow His Majesty’s will.”

“…”

“I can pass the situation more gracefully. Isn’t it a situation where there might be some unexpected pressure coming to Hong Yeom Dan? For now, it’s safe to be under His Majesty’s protection.”

He gave me strength by his side. You can feel the sincerity in his expression and words.

“I’ll be there to help, so don’t worry and head to the capital for now.”

I shook my head briefly.

“…I’m worried about…”

Then he looked at his wives for a while.

Now I can see their expressions more clearly.

“…”

“…”

…The expressions were more emotional than I thought.

Ner’s erect ears are folded back and his lips are bitten.

Arwin’s long ears were down, and his expression was full of confusion.

I let out a heavy sigh and said.

“…Brother.”

Adam nodded his head.

“…Please take care of Ner and Arwin.”

Hyung also nodded.

“Don’t worry-“

“- No.”

At that time, Ner instantly raised his voice.

I gripped the hem of my clothes tighter.

“…Where are you going alone…?”

She said, using her herd.

From noble mtl dot com

As if they were anxious about falling.

He showed a little bit of anger.

It was the same with Arwin.

“…I won’t go to Stockpin…Without Berg.”

Arwin’s eyes seemed to show sadness for some reason. Considering that it is not easy to find such an atmosphere in that cold expression, I feel the ripple effect of my actions once again.

“…Besides, we still have something to say.”

I looked around her and whispered to them in a low voice.

“…It could be dangerous. Don’t follow me.”

As long as I’m not going to the capital for positive things, my wives hoped to be resting in Stockpin.

“I hate it. I will follow you.”

But Nere looked at me persistently and said.

His breathing was also a bit rough.

“…”

Arwin looked at me quietly as if he would not change her words.

Looking at us like that, the king says.

“Judgments are quick. I said, don’t worry. Because there is no justification or reason to punish you. Even if you said that you shared love with the saintess as a child in the first place, isn’t that a sin?”

Those words cause a slight change in the expression of her wives.

After that, the king looked around him.

Then he nodded at me and moved on.

“…Let’s go. I don’t want to stay here any longer.”

Number of soldiers and knights follow him.

I pondered over the king’s last words.

It would not be a sin to share love.

…But right now, for some reason, my heart is heavy.

As the king moves like that, brother Adam calls me.

“Berg. Look into my eyes.”

Even in the situation of a sudden breakup, he maintained his composure.

It brings me to the center of my still confused mind.

“…This is what happened…Take the boss, Joe.”

“…”

“…It’s an order.”

I nodded slowly.

If even my wives said they would follow me, I felt comfortable being with the boss, Joe.

Adam let out a short sigh.

“…”

“…”

Then we end our greetings by blinking at each other.

I took the horse’s reins.

Within the king’s procession, they rode their horses.

My two wives and Gail followed me like this.

There was a sudden change in the schedule.

****

Arwin couldn’t figure out the identity of the painful pain that started to feel in his heart after witnessing that shocking scene.

But whatever it was, I couldn’t deny that it was very painful.

As much as I’ve been tortured by the World Tree for decades… I thought I had a tolerance for pain, but I guess it wasn’t.

Or is it because of some other kind of pain?

I couldn’t breathe.

I keep holding my breath.

Alwin looked at Berg’s back while feeling this unresolved pain.

I think it will get better if I hear anything from him.

Because it was Berg who always relieved his pain.

However, I was not in a situation where I could share any words yet.

I had to set up a campsite, but I thought I’d have a chance.

And in the meantime, Arwin kept thinking about the situation from earlier.

The saintess who was crying.

Her arms stretched out to hold her.

The title ‘Bell’.

Berg was in pain with an expression he had never seen before.

“…Sigh.”

Arwin frowned again and squeezed the reins tightly.

…Actually, I was able to infer the situation without Berg’s explanation.

All questions from the past are resolved one by one.

Ner said that Berg knew her saint’s name.

Berg pretended that he was mistaken…But that must have been a lie.

Berg said he was from a slum.

From what I heard from Silprien, the saintess seemed to be an orphan.

Even the poor background is similar.

Berg was extremely angry when the Hea Church appeared in the village.

Now the reason also seemed to explain.

…. He said that a saint woman has a man she loves with all her heart. He was also said to have gone to the battlefield for him.

The reason why she shed tears in the garden of the Jackson family in the past when she became a saint has now been explained.

She was a saint who shed tears when she heard the news that the man she loved had a wife for her.

…Now I realize who the man was and who the wife he was supposed to be was.

‘……Then why don’t we just get a divorce…?’

“…………..”

Arwin gritted his teeth as he recalled the words of her saintess.

His fists trembled with fury that began to well up.

Did she say something like that to get between herself and Berg?

As Arwin sees such intense emotions blooming, he now admits it.

Who has settled in your heart and who has become a precious person.

Who she fell in love with.

In such a negative situation, I come to a realization.

But because of that, she might not have been as sick as she is now.

Her heart is enlightened, and she realizes the difference with the target again.

He may be compared to him because he saw someone who looked much like him.

The saintess resembled Berg in everything.

Same race.

Same life span.

Same origin.

Same background.

Same spirit of sacrifice.

Same hair color.

Same pupils.

…On the other hand, Arwin was the opposite of everything.

Elf, long life, nobility, even hair and eye color.

She feels inferior to the fact that her relationship with Berg would not have started had it not been for an arranged marriage.

It was as if the love between the saintess and Berg was purer and purer.

She felt that the relationship between herself and Berg was contradictory and forced.

After realizing her heart, even such a trivial fact becomes a stumbling block.

She

She Is even wanting to resemble someone is love?

…….Everyone left, the hardest part was that there was someone Berg really liked.

Even if that’s the case with Ner… I never thought that there would be someone else.

I heard that it’s Berg who always avoided women.

I was told by the Red Flame Team members that I had pushed away any woman for the past 7 years before marrying Ner.

…It was seven years ago that the warrior chosen by the five gods appeared.

Even this fits perfectly.

“……”

Arwin’s heart didn’t stop beating.

Even on the eve of the sacrificial ceremony where life was taken away by the World Tree, he probably wouldn’t have been so shaken up.

Berg loved the saintess so much, it was so hard that she might have pushed women away for the past seven years.

…I knew he was originally that kind of guy.

Originally, I knew Berg had that kind of personality.

He knew all too well that he was a person who valued his mate.

But the fact that he had a woman whom he might have loved more than himself… Made me very angry.

…No, I wouldn’t be upset.

I was jealous.

I was so jealous.

It was a surprisingly deep jealousy to himself.

She also wanted to receive that kind of love from Berg.

She wanted to leave such a mark on Berg.

But it was hard for her to have a woman who had left such a mark in Berg’s short lifespan before her.

Arwin was surprised by her own monopoly.

Maybe it’s because she’s happier being by Berg’s side than being free.

Maybe it’s because she doesn’t want to give up her precious berg… To anyone.

It seemed that the desire that had been suppressed for 170 years began to slowly pour toward one object.

“…”

At first, a conversation was necessary.

Arwin didn’t know how to solve this problem with Berg.

But one thing was certain.

Now I have given up my feelings for Berg.

He couldn’t yield to anyone.

…It was decided.

****

Ner continued to gulp her saliva and hold back the tears.

I didn’t know why it seemed like it would flow, but I kept hearing her resentment.

Her head is burning and her heart is pounding with anger, but there is nowhere to release it.

She never thought her mate might have had someone.

She

She had firmly believed that she would be Berg’s first woman.

But it wasn’t, and even now, in his mind, he didn’t know who was first.

That fact drove Ner crazy.

Maybe it’s because he vaguely believed that Berg loved him the most.

Ner looked at the back of Berg on the horse.

The conversation will become clearer later… I still don’t know what to say.

In Nere’s mind, the anxiety he had been thinking about for a long time came to mind.

He himself fell in love with Berg… But what if he wasn’t Berg?

What would happen if I told you not to take this too seriously and just move on?

It may happen because the culture is different.

Maybe it’s natural for humans to love a variety of people.

But not for Ner.

It was shocking that Berg had another woman, and it was scary that the possibility was still open.

There is no proof that the saintess was the last woman Berg loved.

Gerberg, he was frustrated that he might treat another woman kindly.

He had to be his own.

He had to be his own.

To her kind, love is like that.

As much as their souls were bound, they had to only look at each other.

If you live, you must live on the same day, and if you die, you must die on the same day.

It was natural for Ner.

“…………”

Suddenly, Ner remembered the soul bond he had with Berg.

A soul bond that didn’t work out properly.

…Could this be the cause of this misfortune?

I feel discomfort in my chest.

“…Let’s stop.”

At that time, Berg spoke from the front.

Ner looked up and saw that the royal family soldiers were preparing to set up camp.

Berg said to Chief Joe.

“Let’s get ready to rest too.”

Ner averted his gaze as Berg turned his head.

I couldn’t make eye contact right away.

Nevertheless, I knew.

…The moment for the conversation was approaching.
