“Ehehehe, ehehehe….”

After the successful proposal, Arjen and I officially became husband and wife.

Of course, there was no institution or individual that notarized it, but anyway, there were some new feelings.

When someone asks about your relationship, you can no longer say that you are cohabitants or lovers, but that you are a couple.

When I think about it, I have walked a lot. Especially considering that it started out as a love doll.

I was an incredibly foolish person who couldn’t even see sunlight, and even went out for a walk and got my leg cut off… A lot of things happened.

“Uhihi, hehehe….”

Actually, Arjen didn’t think anything and was just busy laughing while looking at the ring I gave him.

“It’s so pretty. It was shaped like a four-leaf clover.”

Arjen slowly examines the ring after returning to Lair. I answered her questions one by one.

“Yes. It looks like it was made by combining four hearts. The heart colors are Rube, Kaela, Rosé, and Viola. I took it from the personalities I met.”

“Woo! Me!?”

“I used the color of the ring.”

“Oh! Is it true?”

Before Arjen could even be happy, his hair suddenly changed color. A different personality appeared.

“Kaela?”

Kaela, who suddenly popped out, continued to look ecstatic as she looked at the ring on her finger.

“Hmm. It’s pretty.”

“Uh, how did you find out?”

As far as I know, the only one who can see Arjen’s vision is Luv.

“Lube told me. He’s proposing to Arjen.”

“I came here because I was curious…”

“…I tried to endure it.”

It was a poor excuse. The fact that it came out like this means that I couldn’t bear it in the end.

Kaela was a calm person who always maintained a poker face, but there were times, like now, when she showed an unexpected side.

“Oh.”

Kaela’s hair turns red as she looks at the ring for a while.

“Lube. Hello.”

“Whoo! Hello, Eugene. Were you really surprised when Kaela suddenly appeared?”

“Well, it’s not the first time I’ve experienced this.”

“Ah, umm… well, what should I say. Still, I guess you were surprised.”

Rube speaks gibberish, which is uncharacteristic of him. His eyes seemed to move here and there as he spoke, and he kept glancing at the ring.

I thought I knew why Kaela and Luv came out one after the other.

“Ring, what do you think of the design?”

“So pretty… These are all diamonds. It must have been hard to find a color like this.”

“Uh… Well, it took a long time. Especially the red one.”

Rube’s expression distorted as if she was both happy and sorry when she heard that it took her the longest to find the color that symbolized her.

After admiring that mysterious expression for a moment, the hair color changes again.

Height becomes suddenly shorter. It was rosé.

“Wow! What!”

“What do you mean… Rosé, didn’t you come out?”

“No! I was suddenly thrown out!”

“You threw it away?”

I became curious about what was going on in the world of imagination. At this point, I want to go in myself.

Fortunately, Rosé, who was trying to hide her embarrassment, told me about the internal situation on her own without me having to ask.

“Lub just said that Arjen proposed and even received a ring, and the kids are all going crazy!”

So, it probably means that they are fighting each other to come out.

“Even the normally calm Viola is turning a blind eye and struggling to get out. know? Once he comes out, he almost never goes back in.”

As Rosé said, once Viola comes out, it stays out for about a week. Instead, it just doesn’t come out that often.

I thought it was the other personalities’ consideration, but now it seems that the other personalities can’t intervene when Viola appears.

“Ah, anyway, I didn’t come out because I wanted to!”

It’s cute how his eyes keep glancing towards the ring while he says that.

“I see. But I want to show the ring to Viola, so there’s no need to stop her too much.”

“Yeah, really? Then they tell you to come out!?”

He spoke loudly, but his expression showed no reluctance at all. To make it even more annoying, I stroked Rose’s head.

“But since this is the ring I am giving to Rosé, there is no need to ask her to come out now.”

“I don’t really want to see this…”

As expected, contrary to what I said, as soon as I finished speaking, my gaze, which had been moving back and forth, was fixed on the ring.

“Well, you don’t have bad sense…”

I wonder if he knows that even if he says it with such a relaxed face, it won’t be persuasive.

I think Rosé would have liked it even if I had picked a real four-leaf clover and tied it into a full ring instead of an exaggerated ring that looked like that.

In the end, unlike the other personalities, the person who came out after Rosé, who went in after looking at the ring to her heart’s content, was not Viola, but Arjen again.

“Ugh… I’m so tired of trying to stop you.”

“You worked hard.”

“Ah!”

Before Arjen could even respond to my words, his hair changed color again. Kaela has appeared again.

“…….”

“……I haven’t seen it properly yet.”

“No, if I do this, the other kids will go crazy…”

Sure enough, the hair color changes once again.

Then, I watched it change continuously for a short period of less than 5 seconds. It was a bonus that I felt a little scared while watching it.

“Ahh! really! Stop it!”

The serial personality swap incident was barely resolved after Arjen exploded, unable to endure it in the end.

It was only after we came together for 30 minutes and enjoyed the afterglow of the proposal that we were able to calm down.

It’s a shame that Wayne and Orha came back at just the right time. If they had been a little late, they would have revealed this ridiculous situation.

***

Although the proposal was successful, there was no separate wedding ceremony.

Since it was a culture that did not exist among dragons in the first place, I had no intention of forcing it on Arzen, and I was also skeptical.

Maybe it’s Earth, but in this world there aren’t that many people to invite.

Of course, there is definitely a relationship that has been built over 50 years.

But the most important thing is that it is a wedding where the bride is a dragon.

How much will it take to send a wedding invitation when you don’t know whether you are going there as a guest or for food?

Although some time has passed since Arjen produced food for humanity, those who come nearby for trade still fear Arjen.

Giving food to humanity is giving, and Arjen’s eating habits have not changed at all.

Maybe that’s why no guests came unless it was a special occasion, and I spent some leisurely time with the three women for a while.

Perhaps my sense of time was gradually becoming blurred, but the passage of time did not feel like a waste or a slow process.

Just like that, years passed by.

“Eugene! Eugene!!”

Arjen comes running towards me, panting. It was an unusual appearance for her, who rarely makes loud noises these days.

“Ah, it looks like the kids will come out of the egg soon!”

“What!?”

When I wondered why there was such a sudden uproar, I realized that it was actually something that was uproarious.

Not only was I surprised, but Wayne and Orha who were nearby also widened their eyes.

“It’s finally time.”

“Wow! I want to see it too!”

Arjen shook his head at Orha’s words.

“I’m sorry, but I think only Eugene should come now. It’s the children’s first time coming into the world, so I have to show them mom and dad.”

“Ah… it’s a shame.”

In fact, if you think about it, Orha, who was incorporated into Arjen’s personality, could be said to be the mother, but it is impossible to show children who are born for the first time in the world that a mother has two bodies.

“Let’s go to the hatchery, Eugene.”

The hatchery was a room with optimal temperature and atmosphere, so it would not be strange for children to be born at any time about a year ago. Naturally, no one except Arzen himself could enter.

When we followed Arjen to the hatchery, there was a cute baby room interior, contrary to what the name suggests.

In the middle of it, two large eggs were clearly cracked.

“Oh….”

It is said that the moment when life is born is always amazing, but the birth of a dragon was even more so.

Since it was hatched from an egg as big as a person, its scale was unique.

Snap… pop! Quad Deuk!

As if it was struggling to come out from the inside, the slight crack cracked wide open, and fragments of the shell began to fall out.

I couldn’t even utter cliché cheers like “Cheer up” or “You just have to do a little more.” I thought those words could be a burden for no reason.

All I could do now was not to say anything and just watch in silence as the children cracked open their eggs and came out into the world.

and.

“Kaeuuugh!”

Eventually, a small dragon completely broke out of its shell…

“Huh?”

Contrary to my expectations, which I thought would be a cute little dragon resembling Arjen’s body, a baby who looked to be about 18 months old shook the moisture from his hair.

“Hmm? Huh?”

The second egg hatched without anyone to answer my questions. As expected, the baby was no different.

“Uh, why?”

“Wow! My children! I’m mom! mom! Eugene! Come here quickly and hug the kids!”

“Huh? Uh…”

Without even having a chance to ask questions, I followed Arjen and wiped the child with a warm towel.

Both children resembled Arjen, with silver hair and red eyes.

“Oh my cute babies! Eugene, what are you doing? I need to show a lot of affection!”

“Oh, of course it would be so…”

Before that, there are more than one thing I want to ask…
