I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband

84 – Journey

Looking at the firewood burning red, I felt like I was on an adventure.

I read in a book that adventurers and bards kept their bodies warm during their adventures.

It is said that he used to get inspiration for writing and music while watching bonfires.

Is that why the tune is automatically created in the head?

It is now the second day since we departed for the Neutral Zone.

Since it is moving with 2,000 soldiers, it is safe and not scary because it is loud and fun.

I think it’s fortunate that the members of the Knights seem to be enjoying the journey in a relaxed and comfortable way, rather than being too rigid.

Well, since we’re going far away, it’s going to be hard for them if we don’t let them talk and play together in order to maintain order.

“But, after all, it’s quiet when everyone is sleeping.”

I came out alone and sat in front of a campfire.

Of course, even if you’re alone, it’s not dangerous or dangerous because the soldiers who stand guard in the back keep watch over the barracks and the fire.

Because it’s boring to be alone, should I bring my daughters and beat them on fire?

With that in mind, I got up from my seat.

“What’s up, father-in-law?”

“Wait, I’m going to pick up some spirits.”

“Then I will guide you on my way.”

“Thank you.”

A low-level priest who has now become a complete master.

The soldier in front of me now is a senior soldier, so if you look at his status as a single part, he must be higher.

I’m glad that being escorted and guided by someone is neither unfamiliar nor bothersome.

For this, we should be grateful to our attendant priests and maids.

As I walked slowly following him, I arrived at a small barracks.

My daughters are very small, so they don’t have to sleep in a big place.

“Perry, Yongyong? Yuri~?”

There were already several small breathing sounds coming from inside.

You are already sleeping.

We usually spend time playing with each other all night long.

“My father’s mother?”

“Ahahahaha, everyone is sleeping.”

“Then there’s nothing we can do about it. Why don’t you go to bed, too?”

“I’m sure. I’ll leave early tomorrow too.”

It doesn’t matter too much because I just need to sleep on Stella’s knee pillow in the carriage.

Still, if I’m awake, the soldier might be annoying.

“hahahahaha, your wife’s mama is really worried about every little thing.”

“Isn’t that right? The person I’m protecting isn’t sleeping for no reason, I’m out and watching the bonfire.”

“On the contrary, it is good for the soldiers. It is the soldiers’ job to learn all those things.”

A mindset close to a pro…

I was ashamed of myself for thinking that I would bother you for a moment.

“Still, it’s more comfortable when the target to protect is sleeping.”

“Kuhmm…”

“Uh-huh, sorry.”

Now that we’re close, we’re in a relationship where we can even make jokes like this.

It is all thanks to Stella that Mosol Chinta came to another world and changed like this.

“Then I will go in and take a deep breath.”

“Sleep with peace of mind.”

Who’s worried about being escorted by such a strong knight?

There are more than 100 people standing outside just for the night watch.

***

“Wow…”

“Seobang-nim, hurry up and eat.”

Is what I’m seeing real?

A whopping 2,000 people are eating together in one place, and there is really no spectacle.

Our maids and priestesses are helping out and diligently distributing food, but whether the line is getting shorter or raising chicks…

“Should I go back and stand in line too?”

“I prepared the meal for Mr. West.”

With that, he handed me the plate that was placed next to him.

Bread toasted with butter, soup with sausage and bacon.

And there are a lot of vegetables that I don’t know why they are here…

Obviously, other people’s plates had cheese, not vegetables.

As I looked at Stella and tilted her head, she responded to me with a smile.

“You should eat vegetables.”

“That…Wouldn’t it be okay to eat cheese and vegetables too?”

“No~ If you go to a neutral area anyway, you’ll have a lot of delicious food, but you won’t eat vegetables there.”

“Chit…”

How did you know?

I heard that the neutral area is also a trading city, so it is impossible not to have delicious food.

In addition, since we are VIPs, it is obvious how the meal will turn out.

As if she had glimpsed such a future, Stella put a lot of vegetables on my plate.

“You promised the other day, right? When I told you to eat vegetables, you said you would eat them.”

“Yes…”

What can I do?

It’s a promise I made to my wife.

Actually, the priest and doctor warned me to eat a lot of vegetables because I haven’t used mana lately, so my mana production has gone down.

Emission is something Stella can easily help with, but if the mana produced by my body drops,

I have to eat a lot of vegetables because sudden changes can make my body weak.

I kept it a secret, but when the doctor and priest ran into Stella, they all told it.

How scolded I was that day…

Aww… I still get goosebumps.

“I will eat well…”

“If you want more, just tell me!”

I’m about to die because I’m dipping the vegetables with a fork.

Isn’t Stella not my wife, but actually my mother?

“Why is my wife, mama, so depressed in the morning?”

“Hello…”

It was Dave who spoke to me.

It looks like he came here because he also brought a lot of food on the plate, and there were no empty seats.

“By the way…Where did you get that vegetable?”

“Special meal.”

“Wow… How precious are vegetables during the trip…”

It’s the same that this guy doesn’t like vegetables very much, but he started to admire the odd part.

Because it is difficult to keep vegetables fresh, you have to use preservation magic, but vegetables are large in quantity and cumbersome, so I don’t eat them while traveling.

That’s why they say it’s not something you can stack and eat like on my plate.

How much did Stella prepare for my health?

“You are truly blessed.”

“I’m well aware of that.”

I replied as I shoved the vegetable into my mouth.

The reason I’m living like this right now is because of Stella.

“Looks like you won’t be leaving today?”

“What’s up?”

I was fishing in front of the river during off-hours after I finished eating.

There is no sign of departure.

I was even more puzzled because I had left around this time yesterday.

“Dave, go check it out.”

“Yes, Mrs. Mama, I will follow your orders.”

“Don’t play around.”

I said there was no need for that between us and laughed.

After watching Dave run away after putting down the fishing rod, I got bored again and looked at the end of my fishing rod.

I felt as if I was about to bite the prey as it swayed gently.

“Ask…Ask…”

Today’s lunch is grilled fish.

I’ll eat it deliciously, so don’t worry and bite the needle.

“Oh.”

The end of the fishing rod that had been shaking Busan until just now became quiet.

It seems that the fish ran away after watching the bait for a while.

I let out a sigh at the moment, but shouldn’t I just catch the fish again?

With that thought in mind, I pulled the fishing rod out of the water.

“But when did this guy go and he’s still not coming?”

Did something big happen?

Should I go too?

No…

If something really big happened, Dave or Etheria would have come to pick me up.

As long as you let me go fishing by myself in the river, I don’t have to go… That’s right?

Strangely, I can’t give you a definitive answer.

I was worried, so I left the fishing rod on the floor and returned to the barracks.

There, the knights were patrolling the area as usual.

“What’s wrong?”

Then I looked around.

Everyone is doing their job diligently, and after seeing me, they just bowed their heads and walked on their way.

Is everything okay?

“Huh?”

No, that doesn’t seem to be the case again.

Looking over there, there is a place where people are crowded.

Looking at all of them wearing priestly and maid outfits, they must be our family.

Looks like Dave is over there too.

“What are you doing?”

“Oh, are you here? Look at this.”

“Huh? Why Perry?”

“Bung!”

“Huh? Why is Perry here?”

Obviously Etheria was holding Perry, and Perry barked blankly next to me.

What is it? Are there two ferries?

“Idiot, look closely.”

“What do you mean look closely, anyone can see…”

No, looking closely now, the guy Etheria is holding has rather long hair.

Compared to that, Perry still feels like a baby river like a ball of cotton.

“Could it be another spirit?”

“Etheria was chosen right away.”

“Wow… You were chosen by a spirit in a place like this?”

“Yeah… This kid is on my head.”

And besides, Perry and the same fluffy puppy spirit.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence or if the Goddess played a trick.

“Can I hug you?”

“Can I hold you?”

“It would be fine if it were me.”

Originally, a spirit cannot be touched without the chosen owner’s permission.

No one can touch a spirit that has not chosen a master.

Still, who am I?

Isn’t he a popular spirit limited to spirits who are embraced by non-chosen spirits and make a fuss?
