I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband

chapter 240



240 – Part 2, Episode 68, The sound of foolish cheers.

The remaining horsepower was too low.

Since there was no way to immediately restore magical power, I asked Priest Subal to bring Perry or Yongyong.

You can’t even drink the potion.

In this case, it would be better to receive magical power directly from the spirit.

“I’ll…I’ll be back!”

So, one of the priests on duty went out.

It was Stella’s helper fuse that she had left behind just in case something happened.

First, let’s sit down for a bit.

I looked around to see if there was a chair I could sit on, and there was a small chair placed next to where Priest Subal was standing.

He must have been holding Eri’s hand.

Dave, that guy, my husband, is asleep at a moment like this…

Oh, did I put you to sleep?

My mind is fuzzy and I can’t remember what happened just before.

Should I say that it doesn’t feel realistic?

I don’t think Eri and the baby were breathing until just now…

No, it is currently in progress.

Aren’t they given each bottle of elixir and are still using recovery magic?

But why haven’t I thought about waking up yet?

Could it be that it’s already too late…?

No, that can’t be true.

Not even a minute had passed since Eri stopped breathing.

The baby was healthy in the womb and was not breathing when it came out, so it was not a stillbirth.

So it will be okay.

It will be enough to save both of them.

Ah, damn it.

Why does my mind go back and forth at times like this?

I couldn’t overcome the momentary frustration and started tearing my hair out.

It’s been a long time since I pulled my hair out because of stress.

Of course, I didn’t pull my hair out just because I was frustrated.

If you can escape from the curse by doing something like this…

Yes, there’s no way you can escape the demon just by pulling out your hair.

In your past life, wasn’t there something similar to this moment where you tried to escape from the curse?

My eyes keep closing, but I absolutely must not fall asleep.

It may be a little unhygienic, but he took a small dagger out of his pocket and gently placed it on my thigh.

“Ugh…”

The pure white clothes I was wearing turned bright red.

Now is not the time for me to fall.

At least after confirming that Eri and the child are safe.

Then I collapsed.

“Ha… When will you wake up… Eri…”

It came out as if he was lamenting… and blaming Eri.

Additionally, as I heard the priests who were close to me shedding tears and crying, I became more and more desperate.

1 second… 2 seconds… 3 seconds…

I endured the pain and passed the time in my mind.

And about 50 seconds passed?

Fortunately, Eri and the baby responded.

However… the reaction was a little different from what I knew.

That… golden color.

The effect of the elixir is green…?

Elixir is the highest level of liquid healing magic.

It is a legendary magic completed by pouring spells into liquid magical power.

There are no production methods left, and all that can be found is excavated.

So, each bottle is no different from a relic.

However, the golden light just now was not the light of recovery magic.

I’ve seen golden light a few times in my past life, but it’s definitely… the goddess’s…

“Even when the goddess used her divine power, that kind of light…”

Yes, I saw the goddess once… when she came down to earth as the first saint.

When the earth was poisoned by the poison of chaos and began to become desolate, the poison of chaos was purified using divine power.

When the blue sky changed to golden light, the silhouette of the Goddess was visible, and the revelation of God was given to the ears of all living creatures.

And just like then.

This was heard by everyone in this room.

[I do not allow trials and tests that you cannot bear.]

A word that is also found in the Bible.

Certainly not only me, but everyone in the room heard it.

The proof was that the attendant priests were praying while looking at the golden light.

It was one of the most devout and religious prayers I have ever seen.

And, around the time the golden light began to calm down like a sunset.

“Ugh… the head…”

Eri’s sleepy voice was heard.

It seems that because he was not breathing, the oxygen level in his blood dropped and he got a headache.

After hearing Eri’s voice, I breathed a sigh of relief.

“Mite!!”

“Baby…”

Even the sound of a baby crying later.

Only then did the attendant priests come to their senses, stood up, and began checking Eri’s pulse.

Thank goodness, thank goodness.

After seeing that the baby was properly checked, I got up and walked out the door.

And there the memory stopped.

Where is the priest Subal who told me to bring Perry and Yongyong earlier…

*

I apparently collapsed outside, but when I came to, I was inside my room.

He hasn’t opened his eyes yet, so I don’t know where he is, but he seems to be sitting comfortably and leaning against the wall.

I don’t know who put it there because I fell asleep like the film was cut off…

Did Dave move it?

I slowly opened my eyes and looked around.

The attendants and maids were still busy, and there was a thin curtain between the sofa where I was sitting and the bed where Eri was lying.

“Whoa…”

Still, seeing as I can move, it seems like my magic power has recovered.

I can’t see Yongyong or Perry, but they must have shared their magic power with me and then gone out to have fun.

Visit her later and pat her on the head to say thank you.

With that thought in mind, I moved my body and heard a creaking sound.

Unlike the poor chair I was sitting on earlier, I was sitting on a single-person sofa.

What I was wearing wasn’t a blanket, but a proper blanket.

It’s kind of warm…

Was it ever so comfortable to be covered with a blanket in the corner of a noisy room?

“Yes…”

Of course, the creaking sound was enough to attract Eri’s attention.

Eri forcefully pulled back the curtain in the middle.

Unfortunately, because I was yawning with my mouth covered, Eri saw everything.

Now I realized that Stella was also sitting next to me.

There was a moment of silence that came when I was caught yawning so loudly that my mouth broke.

“Everyone, please leave for a moment.”

“I understand, Your Majesty.”

“Yes, master.”

Everyone bowed their heads at Stella’s one word.

Then he hurriedly moved out and went out.

what? Are you angry?

That can’t be possible.

Because it’s not like Stella to get angry over something like that.

Stella, who casually asked me if it would be better to take Etheria as a concubine while she was pregnant, couldn’t have done that.

“Sir, come and sit next to me.”

It looked a bit serious, so I got up from the sofa and went next to Stella.

When I went to the side, Stella squeezed my hand.

“Is it true that Eri stopped breathing for a moment?”

“Oh, that’s a related question… When I couldn’t hear Eri’s screams, I thought she had fainted, but the person who came out from inside said she wasn’t breathing.”

What time is it?

Anyway, he told me in detail what happened at that time.

Since Stella was not there, she asked the priests and maids in detail to understand the situation at the time.

“First of all, I brought two bottles of elixir and gave them one each.”

“Eh…elixir?”

Eri was surprised when I said it was an elixir.

It is a legendary potion that has not been discovered recently, and is only rumored to have been consumed by royalty from a distant foreign country.

It seems surprising to think that he and the baby in his arms ate it.

Well, I don’t think it’s a waste at all.

“And just in case, I used purification magic… and prepared a recovery magic circle.”

“I see…”

It seems that the arrangement was finally completed.

Sister Stella crossed her arms and was lost in thought for a moment.

“Eri, how are you feeling?”

“Hmm… I feel much healthier than before I got pregnant.”

That’s right.

A body healed by the elixir would have returned all physical traces of pregnancy to how they were before pregnancy.

Not only that, but it will be much better than then in every way.

I also feel much better than before I started having headaches.

“The baby looks okay too.”

“Hey… Your Majesty…”

Ah, that’s it.

It is the look in the eyes of a person who is grateful for saving his life.

Personally, I think such gratitude is a bit burdensome.

“Hmm… I think I would be really embarrassed if I even received a thank you note here, but I’ll just ignore it.”

“Well… Still…!!”

“Then, please do it later. Don’t think about anything else right now and get some rest.”

Even if she recovered with the elixir, didn’t she just give birth to a child?

You can rest now and receive gratitude later after you have finished taking care of yourself.

You didn’t save Eri just to get a thank you, right?

“Shouldn’t we rather be thanked by Dave rather than Eri?”

“Dave was just thinking about what to say to thank his Majesty, and then…”

Then, Eri looks out the window.

It seems that this stupid cheering sound from earlier was Dave’s voice.
