Restart in the World of Gender Reversal

chapter 28



28 – Party at the Royal Palace

The relationship with Maron started to spread, and the domestic and international media made a lot of noise.

At first, it was a news story full of speculation about the saintess’ marriage partner, but no facts.

After she announced her official position at the Kritias Royal Family and Holy Kingdom Cardinal Meeting, she entered a lull.

She guessed that there would be chaos within the Holy Kingdom, but she was unexpectedly quiet.

She even issued a statement in support of marriage, saying that it was normal for her to marry her own people…

And I heard that one of the cardinal’s sons ran amok.

What did they say?

Her husband is said to have had contention or something.

It seems that she tried to decide the ranking from there and choose the man with the highest score as Maron’s husband.

As the final result of that competition, it was decided that he was the son of the cardinal who was said to have run amok.

By the way, it’s not an elf, it’s a human.

Maron is less than 100 years old in her sleep. At such a young age, she almost became a widow.

Anyway, there is no such thing as competition anymore, so Maron is my woman.

I hope you don’t confuse me like an idiot, wondering if it’s Lipton or Rickton like last time.

***

Full of shining chandeliers and countless wine glasses that reflect the light

At the party venue, the soft sounds of musical instruments and the chatter heard seemed to harmonize.

It gives off an antique and elegant feel.

The party venue, where not only domestic aristocrats but also high-ranking families invited from the Holy Kingdom hang out together.

It is a completely different interior from the party that King Sieghart also had in his mansion.

It exudes luxury.

“Huh…That’s a lot?”

“That’s about the number of men who passed the final round. If we expand the range to the preliminary round, uh… It’s hard to imagine.”

“It must have been a bigger deal than I thought.”

I heard from an unknown cardinal from the Holy Land, that there are tens of thousands of men who participated in the holy woman’s husband contest.

What is the title of a saint?

It is undoubtedly a main character in fantasy, but it is not enough to explain it with just that.

It’s not the wife’s competition, it’s the husband’s competition.

“Well then, I’m going to leave.”

“Ah, thanks for the info. Cardinal”

“Say nothing.”

It was only when I saw that the cardinal, who had answered the question in good faith, was getting farther away.

I also turned around.

Maron was also surrounded by other people and was talking, but unexpectedly, most of them were from the home country of the Holy Land.

The domestic nobility seemed to decline.

Though they flocked to me instead.

The people who participated in this party were me, Alice, Lillie, Lara, and Marron.

Just everyone was involved.

As a wife…

It was a bit puzzling that his wife would participate in the wedding celebration party, but

I don’t think anyone except me thinks it’s strange.

Not only Maron, but also Ellis, Liliego, and Lago all suffer surrounded by other people.

Anyway, they were also active in the social world, and given their position as the wife of Guk-seo, it seems inevitable that more people will flock to them.

I was also greeted by a few cardinals, the pope, and Maron’s father.

Maron’s father was a fairly ordinary man, and after saying thank you for accepting Maron and wishing her well, he moved on.

From what I’ve heard, Maron seems to have been a pretty badass when she was in the Holy Land.

She is, well, she wasn’t the first person to miss the academy for a month.

“Whoa…”

I thought I had improved my stamina quite a bit through swordsmanship lessons, but the speed at which I was tired was different from simply running.

Should I say that the body is harder because the mind gets tired as well?

I decided to go to a chair with a table and sit down for a while.

I closed my eyes for a moment, then someone came over and put the cup down on the table.

It was Alice.

Alice must have been a bit tired as well, so she brought a chair and put it right next to me and sat down on it.

Every single action makes you feel like an elderly couple who have been together for a long time.

It gave me an opportunity to think once again how much Alice cares for me.

I hope it’s not something like excessive self-consciousness.

I picked up a cup from the table and drank it in one gulp.

“Puha.”

After hitting one shot coolly, I looked at Alice, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

Her expression was that she was looking at something cute.

“If you keep staring at me, I’m embarrassed.”

“After all that, I drank it cool. Would you like another drink?”

“It was because she was thirsty. Did Alice come to rest too?”

“I felt sorry for my husband to be alone, so I came to stay with him.”

“Ahhh… That’s a pity.”

She spends her time sitting alone at the party venue where she is the protagonist.

Other people might feel sorry for her.

Of course, it doesn’t apply because I was expressing with my whole body that I was tired.

I leaned my head on Alice’s shoulder, who was making fun of me.

Alice also supported me with her body closer to me, and I leaned against her in a more comfortable position by putting her weight on it.

About 20 minutes had passed.

A guardsman came up to Alice and knelt on her knees.

Looks like a knight, not an ordinary guardsman.

“Your Majesty, there’s a man at the entrance who wants to let you in because he’s late for a party.”

“Invitation?”

“I have it with me, but I heard it’s a little late because I’m attending as a proxy…”

“Hmm… You’re trying to come in an hour after the party starts, are you a domestic aristocrat?”

“No. It was an invitation in the name of the Cardinal of the Sacred Kingdom.”

“If it was a domestic aristocrat, he would have been kicked out, but he’s a guest of the Holy Kingdom.”

Alice got up from her chair, so I got up too.

Actually, I woke up because I was bored and bored, so I wanted to watch latecomers.

Alice didn’t hold back either, so she followed.

As I approached the door to go out of the venue, Maron came by my side and crossed his arms.

It was a cute and cute move, but I was a little disappointed with the flat chest that hadn’t grown yet.

No, if you look at the chest of His Holiness the Pope, there is a possibility.

You shouldn’t be disappointed already.

“Where are you going? It’s too much for you to leave her wife alone.”

“No, that’s not it. I’m going to visit because a deputy from the Holy Land arrived late for the party.”

“A proxy? I’m sure you’ve decided not to send a proxy to this party…?”

Anyway, it was a holy woman’s wedding party, but she couldn’t come if she couldn’t come.

It seems that the meeting of the cardinals decided not to send a proxy, saying that it was not a violation of etiquette.

Did Alice hear that?

The atmosphere suddenly turned sharp.

When I arrived at the gate, the attendant was a dark brown haired man accompanied by a woman who looked like a butler.

The knight guarding her castle gate is threatening to let her in.

In comparison, he was tied up with ropes.

Are you stupid? I have children like that.

“Hey! Do you know who I am? I brought an invitation, but instead of letting you in, you arrest me? Shall we turn this into a diplomatic problem?”

A vulgar way of speaking and threats that don’t even know how to do it.

Do you not know that intimidating the knights protecting the castle is a matter of diplomacy?

The knights protecting the castle now are the nobles who gave it to them.

He is from a holy country with no social status system. He is just a commoner who is not protected by the treaty.

It is legal to cut the head on the spot for blasphemy.

Of course, since he was a knight guarding the royal castle, he seems to be holding back well.

“What’s up?”

“Your Majesty…Your Majesty!”

He felt sympathy for the knight as he knelt in amazement as if he had done something wrong.

Wouldn’t it be troublesome to get it wrong…

“He told me he was late for the party and asked me to let him in… So I had no choice but to tie him up.”

“Let go! You b*tches!”

“I can’t shut up! How safe are you teasing your snout!”

“Do you think you guys can handle this rudeness of arresting a cardinal deputy!”

…They?

Wow.

You curse in front of the king.

I have a bully like that, but I’m sure he’ll do as much as threatens a knight.

In an instant, I understood.

I was thinking something like that, but the expressions of the knights and Marron were rotting.

Especially, Maron seemed to have a sense of absurdity that a person from his own country was behaving like that.

Did she decide that she, as a saint, had to step in if the problem was not to escalate any further?

Maron stepped forward to the captive.

“….!! Holy woman! This is me! I decided to be your husband in the competition…!!”

“Shut up.”

“Wow…”

Maron’s expression was not a human eye.

Her cold eyes, like looking at a trash bag thrown in the dump.

They were so unfamiliar and scary that I doubted if they were the Maron eyes I knew.

“Everyone…Shut up! I am the person who will be the saintess’s husband! Even if it’s the saintess.”

“Shut up. Someone like you will be my husband? A subject that doesn’t even know how to do it.”

“What… What?”

Write it.

Should this be called déjà vu?

I think I saw it once just a while ago.

Licton or Lipton, the son of the estate next to Lillie.

Maron took out her sword from her belt and put it around the man’s neck.

It’s not a practice sword that I used to fight with Lillie, it’s luxurious and beautiful, but it’s sharp enough to be used

A sword that feels cold.

“Did you really think that an idiot like you would marry me just because I was selected in a competition or primary?

Her head is worse than an amoeba.”

The blade that Maron brought to him was pressed around her neck, and her bright red blood rose slightly.

I was uncomfortable watching that scene, so I hid behind Alice.

“Do you really believe that you, as only the son of a cardinal, are worth more than that?”

“No… Of course, I’m a low-level member, but I belong to the Goddess Association, I graduated from the second place at Feihong Academy, and…”

“I’m ashamed of your brain for thinking that such a worldly status can affect a person’s worth. Don’t go out and say you’re a cardinal’s son.”

I put the sword I was aiming at my neck into the scabbard of my waist dance

I turned back.

As if you could only see in a swordsman movie…

It was cool itself.

“Because the national prestige of the Holy Kingdom is falling.”

As if his spirit was broken by his last words, he knelt down and bowed his head.

Wherever you look at it, you mean a saint.

I would believe him even if he was a swordsman who dominated the era.

“I will not mention this in the international community for the sake of Maron.

It seems that Alice also liked Maron’s handling, and decided to just skip this one.

Maron bowed her head and expressed her gratitude to Alice.

She smiled bitterly at Alice stroking Maron’s hair.

Alice takes care of her Lily, Lara, and Marron as if she were her own sister.

No, Lara was her biological sister.

“…….”

Anyway, let’s not make Maron angry.

You change very scary when you get angry.

Alice entered the castle first, followed by Maron.

I’m still looking at the guy with his head down on her knees, tied to the entrance.

Come to think of it, did you say that this bastard was the first in the competition?

To come all the way to another country because of Maron, you’re a guy whose obsession is no joke.

Well, if my woman suddenly gets married in another country,

You might go there without thinking.

Of course, that won’t happen, but…

She sympathized with him a little.

She then turned her back and walked towards the inside of the castle.

No, I walked and then stopped.

The crunching sound I heard earlier

Because it started to bother me.

What?

Looking at it now, the hands of the guy who should have been tied

It moves freely.

And in both his hands was a sharp dagger.

“f*ck.”

I cursed unconsciously.

Because, the guards said they would deal with that bastard.

This is because after Alice entered the palace, she headed to the guard’s station.

Now, there is only me and that child in this place.

“Kuh… Bastards… I’m going to kill them all… Saints, kings, bureaucrats…”

I stood up and looked at my hands clenched with daggers.

But today, even during the daytime, one of the well-made magic cores cannot be created.

Is it because you’re nervous?

That’s really f*cked up.

I don’t think it would be possible without a magic core to stop that bastard…

I looked back, but no one was there.

“Die bastard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

I tried to avoid that bastard who was running towards me with a dagger held high, but

I wonder if it’s a joke.

My leg got caught on a stone root, but I didn’t fall, I just stumbled.

When the dagger he held drew closer to me and reached in front of me

I closed my eyes tightly.
