720 – Newlyweds Never End – 5
The resort where we will stay during our honeymoon was luxurious and grand, as expected from the Golden Ball.
A place with a panoramic view of Narvesia, a pier where numerous ships come and go, and the wide sea. Perhaps because it is the tallest building in Narvesia, everything about Narvesia caught my eye.
It is fortunate that this resort is located on the outskirts of the city rather than in the center. If I had looked down on the city from the center, I might have thought of myself as Governor Zereno. In fact, even now, I feel like I’m half a governor.
‘I’m glad it came back normally.’
Even thinking about it now makes me dizzy. If they had come to Narvesia not by boat but by Leviathan, how could they possibly be a couple on a honeymoon? He’s just a conqueror who came to take over the city.
To be honest, the Golden Ball probably suggested boarding the Leviathan partly out of consideration for me and partly out of a desire to put pressure on Zereno again. Leviathan, which is a strategic weapon in itself, is used simply to transport two people? No matter how well the Golden Ball takes care of people, moving Leviathan out of pure favor is a wasteful decision.
“Carl. “I washed everything.”
While I was standing at the window looking at the sea, Mara, who had entered the bathroom first, came out wearing a robe.
“We could have washed together.”
“That’s not possible. It’s a long night and you can’t unwind in the bathroom, right?”
When I jokingly expressed my regret to Mar, Mar also smiled and made a subtle joke.
No, maybe it’s not a joke and is 100% sincere. It can’t be a joke, considering the food we ate for several days at the mansion.
“Well, wouldn’t it have been better to relax a little in the bathroom?”
That’s why she gently hugged Mar and whispered in his ear. That choice wasn’t a very good choice.
Right after Mar and I got married, we had a long and passionate love affair. Thanks to this, a precious treasure called Fedi came to us, and based on her experience, we were able to obtain precious treasures from her other wives. And it’s all a miracle called a honeymoon baby.
After that, they did not share the same love as before, but rather a normal, gentle love, and it seems that Mar made her plan based on that love. It seems like the memories from 3 years ago have disappeared.
‘Then I have to remind you.’
The reason I refrained until now was because there was no need to overdo it. Since we are not planning to make a second child, applying more power will only result in excess power.
But not anymore. The gentlemen’s agreement that took care of her ladies was terminated with Mary’s birth.
“It would be good if the second name was Nar.”
Nar is the first letter of Narvesia. The pronunciation is similar to mar, so it is perfect to use as a family name.
“…Yes?”
And at my polite declaration of war, Mar blinked blankly and then spoke in a somewhat bewildered voice.
Unfortunately, it seems like memories from three years ago are only now beginning to be recovered.
“Pedi looks a lot like her father her her her, so wouldn’t it be better for Nar to be born as a daughter who looks like her mother her her her?”
“Kah, Carl? “I haven’t lost yet!”
“Is that important?”
She hugged Marr even more tightly as he tried to retreat. Before I knew it, my hands began to unfasten the waistband of my gown.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s before or after evening, at night or early morning.
I plan on running until morning anyway.

Narvecia is a city belonging to the County of Iravica.
Although it is not the central city where Count Iravica resides, it has a prominent position within the kingdom and is enjoying prosperity as the number one city in the county. Count Iraq also made Narvesia his own territory rather than granting it to his vassals.
And the Delo Resort, which was like a symbol of Narvesia, was taken over by the Golden Duke a few months ago due to the Leviathan incident that shook the entire kingdom.
‘If Count Iraq had it, he could have gone in.’
Thanks to this, I couldn’t enter the resort even though I knew that the best sword on the continent was inside.
Delo Resort was called the best resort in the kingdom even before the ownership transfer occurred. Since such a resort has been renovated in the hands of a golden ball, it is natural that reservations are flooding in. As someone who has hidden my identity, there is absolutely no way to access it.
‘Even if it wasn’t taken away…’
It’s a shame. Regretful. Even if I enter the resort, I have no choice but to watch from afar, but I think I will get some of that energy by using the same building as the best sword on the continent. I think it will be a little bit of comfort.
The desire rose from time to time, but I tried to suppress it. As a royal, it is indecent to storm into a resort without making a reservation and asking for a room. Even if it means risking damage to her dignity, the princess of Zereno cannot make a fuss at the imperial duke’s resort.
So I endured it. Until the time when the best sword on the continent leaves the resort again. Until morning comes and we start traveling again.
“Beryl.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Why isn’t it coming out?”
“I don’t know either.”
But patience and waiting were betrayed. The continent’s best sword and his wife did not leave the resort even after two days.
At first, I thought I was taking a break due to the fatigue of traveling from the empire to my country. It’s not a bad idea to relax at a resort for a day.
But you only stay at the resort for two days? Even if you have a long honeymoon, do you only stay at the resort and not visit tourist attractions?
“Ho, by any chance, did something happen?”
Anxiety surged. It’s unlikely, but what if the continent’s greatest sword is unable to adapt to Zereno’s diet and water and is suffering? It is said that people who stay in their hometown and then move to another place have trouble with water.
Or maybe it’s not the best sword in the continent, but his wife is sick. The strongest sword on the continent is strong, but the wife is an ordinary noblewoman.
No, if she is the daughter of Lord Sangvis, isn’t she ordinary?
‘It shouldn’t be painful…’
In any case, it is not a very good situation regardless of which of the continent’s best swordsman and wife is sick.
Not being able to talk to the best sword on the continent? It’s so sad that it brings tears to my eyes, but it’s understandable. However, it is unacceptable for Idol, who came all the way to Zereno, to go home after only suffering. Since I came here, I hope I leave with only good memories and go back─
“It’s coming out.”
Hearing Beryl’s words, I hurriedly looked at the resort’s entrance.
It’s true. Finally, the best sword on the continent came out of the resort. Although it was strange that he came out alone without his wife, I was able to confirm that he was fine.
‘Then is your wife sick?’
What should I do? Should I secretly give some medicine to the resort?
No, that’s not good. What kind of medicine is it when you don’t even know how it hurts? In the first place, I’m not someone who can’t even get the best sword on the continent.
Then should I go to church and pray? But he is the blackest living blessed person on the continent. Wouldn’t the prayer of the greatest sword be more effective than my prayer?
‘It’s useless.’
For a moment, I felt a sense of self-destruction. I can’t believe I can’t do anything when the hero I respect is having a hard time. It seems like I have nothing except my status as a princess.
‘…Huh?’
Just as I was thinking about whether I should just return to the palace, an unexpected variable occurred.
The first sword is coming to the cafe we were at. It’s not just a passing path, it’s definitely approaching in a straight line.
“Be, Beryl. What should we do!?”
“Stay still. If you leave now, it will be even worse. Just pretend to be a customer at the cafe.”
When I spoke urgently, Beryl gave the perfect answer.
That is correct. I don’t know who the darkest me and Beryl are. In such a situation, if we hurry to leave the place, it is actually an act that raises suspicion.
“Would you like to talk for a moment?”
“Eck.”
The first sword spoke to me.
What should I do with this?

Mar fell faster than three years ago.
In fact, it is a natural result. Because Mar made the mistake of raising the enemy with his own hands for a few days. The food I ate at the mansion was so sumptuous that it made even a sick person walk on his own two feet.
Thanks to this, she decided to stay at the resort until Mar regained her stability,
‘What?’
While looking at the cityscape, I noticed something strange.
A cafe in front of the resort. A duo of blonde and silver-haired women sitting idle on the cafe terrace. His age seemed roughly similar to Erich.
Of course, it’s not strange to see young women in tourist spots, but it’s strange for those two to be there.
‘You were still here?’
Two figures followed behind Mar and I. At first, I only knew that someone was following me, but I can be sure because I checked faces from time to time while enjoying sightseeing. That duo are the criminals who followed Mar and I.
‘Why?’
Confusing. There wasn’t anything hostile particularly, so I just left it alone, but now they’re waiting in front of the resort indefinitely? What are you aiming for?
No, it’s not that I can’t understand it at all. If there are important figures from other countries in your country, you are bound to be concerned, and it is understandable to assign someone to prepare for an unexpected situation.
But if someone is assigned for that purpose, shouldn’t they be more secretive…?
“Would you like to talk for a moment?”
So she went down to the cafe while Mar was sleeping. I tried to ignore it for the most part, but I can’t ignore this strange behavior, even if it’s just out of curiosity.
What kind of criminal in this world does things like this? If there’s a guy like this in the castle, I’ll destroy him with my own hands.
“Oh, that, that… “
And when I approached first, the blonde woman stuttered her words and rolled her eyes back and forth.
“Hey, so…”
“So?”
When she urged the hesitant blonde woman, she closed her eyes and suddenly bent her back.
“It’s an honor to meet you! I get to see the one who has passed the peak of the sword and reached its end so closely! It’s Alice Newdo! It’s the honor of a lifetime!”
And with a loud voice.
‘Newdo?’
At the same time, her head began to spin.
If it’s Newdo, isn’t it the Zereno royal family? Alice is also the name of the first princess Zereno.
…
‘Damn.’
I came down for no reason. Anyway, I decided to pretend not to know, so I should have ignored it until the end.
“Actually, I heard that the greatest sword came to Narvesia, so I came here because I wanted to meet the person who reached the end of the sword in person! I’m sorry if I bothered you!”
Meanwhile, Alice, who was still bending over, cried out in a desperate voice. Like a believer going to confession.
“If you wanted to see me that much, you could have talked to me, but why did you just watch from afar?”
“Boo, it’s such a shame to interrupt a couple’s time…”
Surprisingly, it was a common sense answer that made me laugh.
He is the person who ran from the palace to Narvesia when he heard that I had arrived, chased after me all day, and guarded the cafe during the two days I was stuck at the resort. A person like that would refrain from interfering with a couple’s time. Should I consider this normal or an eccentricity?
‘He is a unique person.’
Surprisingly, it wasn’t particularly angry or unpleasant.
Maybe it’s because I’ve already gotten used to a certain spicy prince living in Armain, but this feels mild.
