29. About Marriage.

Yohan had intended to wake up on the fourth wave.

Contrary to his resolution, he could barely rise at the end of the fifth wave.

“Hoo… I rested for a long time. Time to work.”

Dew.

Popopopong!

Rough Waves.

With the sound of a massive dam bursting, a transcendent wave directly strikes the giant zombie.

It doesn’t end there. His now more skillful spell shines.

Yohan’s newly established theory. ‘Adding Concepts.’ Applied to the spell.

Shield.

[Structure Comprehension] [Off-site Implementation]

Jjeoooooooong!

A shield is created in a cube-like shape. Having succeeded once, the second time is easier.

The giant zombie helplessly turned to Karma.

[Acquired 4 Karma.]

Less acquired than before. Tsk, Yohan clicked his tongue.

‘Still, it’s something.’

Unfortunately, there was no more magic power to use. If he drank more potions here, it would be a real disaster.

“……”

……It probably wasn’t only because Sara was glaring at him from the Gungpo Fort. Maybe?

[Situation Ended!! Announcing again! Situation Ended!!!]

With one of the knights finishing off a medium-sized undead, today’s siege ended.

It was a battle more valuable than anything to Yohan. He goes down the ramparts following the soldier’s guidance.

Sara stood next to him, strongly watching Yohan as if to prevent his impulsive behavior.

“……Should I tie him up firmly?”

“Excuse me?”

“It’s nothing.”

***

“You’ve worked hard!”

“Um!”

The head butler comes out to greet him at the mansion’s main gate. Following behind him, a familiar young servant approached.

His expression and gestures were even more polite than before, as if he had heard of Yohan’s exploits by word of mouth.

“Magician, you’ve worked hard.”

“Yes.”

“I will guide you. Would you like to bathe first? There are also simple snacks.”

“I’ll do both.”

“Understood.”

He headed to the bathroom following his guide.

Cheeeeeek!

As he soaked in the warm water, the fatigue from the battle flooded in like a tide.

“Here, is blue apple juice. There is also strawberry toast.”

“I’ll enjoy it.”

Juice with a blue tint but the taste of apple juice, and toast with strawberries the size of a face sliced and placed on top.

It wasn’t filling, but it was good for quickly replenishing the calories burned.

“After your bath, there will be dinner with the Master.”

“……Excuse me? Do I attend too?”

“Yes.”

He said with an expression that seemed to say, ‘Of course you have to attend, right?’

He’s a talent who used great magic, so how could they not build camaraderie?

It’s only to this extent because it’s a knight family. If it were a magician family, they would have cherished him even more.

‘Was it that great? His attitude really changed.’

In the first place, modern magicians were too poor, and he had never encountered a high-ranking native magician even once.

Yohan was harsh in his assessment of himself, so his understanding of this situation was a bit slow.

“Hoo……”

After finishing his bath, he headed to his room with a pleasant sigh.

“Where is she?”

“She is probably still washing.”

Sara was not visible. Yohan roughly nodded and laid down on the bed.

“Heueoeoeoeo……”

He felt like he would fall asleep like this. So much happened today.

Tak, the servant operated the radiant artifact. The surroundings quickly darkened.

“……Rest in peace.”

The servant quietly said. Already, the magician was asleep.

***

Knock. Knock. Knock. Sreureuk.

The door opens with a quiet hinge sound. Footsteps as secretive as that headed to the bed.

A pure white, delicate hand swept over the bed where the magician was sleeping.

Delicate and graceful fingers. Even seductive.

“Did he just fall asleep?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“Hmm……”

The owner of the hand, Sara, stared intently at Yohan. Really, I told you not to overdo it……

He doesn’t listen. He’s quite the maverick.

‘You can just regress, so why do you keep doing that……’

It’s to close the gap with Sara, but for her who doesn’t know that, it’s touching.

Suddenly, she thought of the servant who was watching them now.

“Leave.”

“Excuse me?”

“I said, leave.”

“I’m sorry, but…… I have the Master’s orders, so I can’t act on my own.”

“……”

It was annoying. She wanted to be alone with him now. She didn’t know why, but she didn’t want her time with Yohan to be disturbed.

She wanted to forcibly kick him out, but……

‘Yohan probably has something planned. I can’t carelessly ruin it.’

Yohan shares her regression. Now that she’s not alone, Sara’s sociability has increased more than before.

“Tsk, fine.”

Saying that, she laid down on the bed. She should just sleep.

She turned to her side. Yohan was sleeping soundly. Even after sleeping so much on the ramparts earlier, it seemed he still wasn’t rested enough.

‘He must have overdone it that much. It’s a shame he doesn’t have a ranged attack method.’

In terms of battle structure, her performance seemed unlikely. Unless a group melee breaks out, Sara’s value currently converges to 0.

“How can a man have such long eyelashes? His skin is so white too……”

It’s like he’s lived a life of only studying in a room, never experiencing hardship.

All sorts of random thoughts come to her mind.

‘How many days has it been since he met his lover?’

She doesn’t know why that question arises. She didn’t particularly want to know either.

A ‘real’ connection that she’s felt for the first time in her life. Its scent was so sweet and addictive.

‘I’m curious.’

There are so many things she doesn’t know. It’s okay. Our time cannot be invaded by anyone.

‘Haa……’

Until the servant, who had finished preparing the meal, called them, Sara endlessly observed Yohan.

“Preparation is complete. Let’s depart.”

“Umm…… Yes. I understand.”

Sara tried to depart accordingly, but……

“I’m sorry, but the Master only called for the Magician.”

Her eyebrows twitched. Just as she was about to say something……

“What are you talking about? Of course my lover has to go too, doesn’t she?”

Yohan quickly opened his mouth. How dare you offend the sensibilities of an infinite regressor, he had to handle it before an incident broke out.

“I’m sorry. It’s not possible.”

“Please tell me the reason. Isn’t it too sudden?”

“I’m sorry.”

The servant only repeated his apology like a parrot. Yohan was slowly getting angry too.

“No, how can this suddenly happen.”

Naturally, the volume of his voice also increased.

“Let’s go to the Master first. I’ll explain everything later.”

Yohan was dumbfounded. He involuntarily snorted.

“Huh! You’re saying you’ll explain it now……”

“Go.”

At that time, an icy tone joined the conversation between the two men.

Both simultaneously turned their heads. There stood Sara, clenching her fists so tightly that they seemed like they would break.

“I’ll listen to the explanation later. Go.”

“No, wait a moment……”

“Thank you for understanding. Then, this way.”

The servant swiftly accepted her answer. He was quite hateful.

“Instead.”

Towering.

Yohan felt a sensation as if his heart was constricting. It felt as if a sticky smell of blood was emanating from somewhere.

Having experienced countless suicides, her aura was already exceptional.

The culprit cannot easily defy her words.

“If the explanation doesn’t please me, you should be prepared.”

Gulp!

Was that sound from Yohan’s throat, or was the servant the culprit?

It could be both.

“Go.”

“……”

“……”

The two men briefly bowed and hurriedly left the scene. At this moment, their hearts were in sync.

Step. Step.

After a few knocks, the door opened. Lord Jakison warmly welcomed Yohan.

“Oh! You’ve come! I’ve been waiting!”

“Thank you for the hospitality.”

“Come, sit! The food will get cold!”

Of course, since there are dishes containing heat preservation spells, the temperature of the food will not drop.

Dishes of artifacts more expensive than the food were piled up! You could get a glimpse of Lord Jakison’s wealth.

Yohan sat down and scanned the faces of the people sitting at the table.

‘Who are they? Let’s just stay still for now.’

They were women of different ages, but all of them were remarkably beautiful.

Starting with a girl who seemed to have just entered middle school, up to a woman who looked to be in her mid-20s.

The age range was truly diverse.

Noticing Yohan’s gaze, Lord Jakison opened his mouth.

“Ah, let me introduce you. These are my children. Aren’t they all beautiful?”

“Ah, yes……”

Yohan felt a sense of unease for some reason. No way, could it be?

‘In the midst of rewarding merits, he suddenly introduces his children?’

And all of them are women? He wasn’t oblivious. It was too blatant.

From their attire to their makeup. No matter how unfamiliar Yohan was with the ecosystem of this era, it was too flashy.

“Ah, you must be hungry. Let’s start with the meal first.”

“……Yes.”

As Lord Jakison touched the food, Yohan also picked up his fork and knife.

……Somehow, it seems like it will be a difficult dinner.
