Chapter 518 – The First Wedding Invitation

‘Ah.’

Roman opened his eyes and came to his senses by checking the unfamiliar ceiling.

She realized that she had fainted and fallen asleep at the same time she had finished making out with Chloe.

“Mr. Roman. Are you awake?”

“How are you feeling?”

– Sigh!

When I turn my head, Alice and Lilyne, who are lying on either side, make eye contact.

Because soon-to-be brides ask questions with a smile on their faces. First, I stretched out my arms and hugged them both.

“Uhmmm…”

“Oh my? It’s precious to see Roman complaining in his sleep.”

“Roman has become a baby!”

– Sigh!

It’s just the behavior of lovers who hug and caress each other and say whether it’s right or not, even though their necks are locked in water and their eyes can’t open properly.

Roman laughed at the treatment he was receiving for the first time and continued his thoughts.

‘Well… It’s not too much of a fuss.’

I can’t help but laugh at how scolding Lily’s and Alice’s actions are, but I don’t know how long it’s been since Roman’s been sleeping as deeply as he is now. At least for a few years.

Usually, when Roman wakes up in bed, he jumps up and starts taking action. I don’t remember him looking this sleepy.

Even if I tried to sleep well, there were many things that bothered my sensitive senses, so sleep was just an extension of rest with my eyes closed.

Anyway.

I don’t know where the rest are going and why these two are the only ones in the room, but I’m glad that nothing much happened while they were asleep.

“Big, big.”

Roman let out a dry cough to wake up his locked throat.

Alice jumped out of bed, holding her tero.

“Roman. Would you like some water?”

“Hmm, yes. Please do me a favor.”

I saw Alice moving with light steps to get water.

Lily Nega gently touched Roman’s lips with her fingers.

“If it was a liquid, he drank it like that, but Mr. Roman choked. That’s a big deal. Is the room dry?”

“What did I drink…?”

“Hehe, I don’t know.”

When she saw Lily provoking her in a cute way, she thought that she would make her moan if she tickled her delicate side.

Let Roman’s thick fingers travel down his back and towards his side.

Lillie wiped her smile with a sigh and poked the corner of Roman’s mouth, which was already up in excitement, with her finger.

“Roman… I’m weak when it comes to tickling!”

“Of course I know.”

“Really…”

Only then did I hear what had happened while I was asleep.

First, the most important result was that Sister Dritna successfully entered the same state as Rikke and everyone congratulated her.

As time passes, pregnancy becomes irreversibly certain.

After that, Roman slept for about three hours.

Atra came running and examined Roman’s body, concluding that she had simply fallen asleep from exhaustion.

She is said to have expressed the opinion that rather than forcefully awakening the senses with divine power, it would be better to leave it alone since it was the first time she had seen such a deep sleep.

Everyone agrees.

There, Atra naturally added an explanation.

– Even though recovery itself is amazing, it would be a good idea to take supplements that will accelerate your body’s recovery.

– How do I feed him when he’s asleep?

– It should be poured slowly from mouth-to-mouth.

– !!!

Everyone’s eyes widened at the small glass bottles that Atra took out from her bag.

Isn’t this a situation that everyone has dreamed of at least once? Thanks to this, everyone stepped forward to do it themselves.

In order to avoid overdoing Atra, we made Roman, who was sleeping while looking at the road, take various kinds of tonics and fatigue recovery medicine.

After one lap, a total of 7 bottles of supplements seeped into Roman’s body.

“···Then I guess I didn’t sleep too little.”

Roman smiled as he wet his neck with the cold water Alice gave him.

In conclusion, I slept for three hours even after drinking that much. If I hadn’t taken it, I might have slept all day.

“Roman must have been very tired. Are you feeling a little refreshed?”

“I’m fine. But where has everyone gone?”

The first question I wanted to ask got pushed back to here.

“Eclair and Chloe are getting their bodies checked by Atra just in case!”

“Then what about Ricke and Seria?”

“When Rike said she would come meet the people who specialize in cooking, she said Seria wanted to come along…”

“Hmm, I guess there’s something I want to eat.”

I remembered the explanation Varian gave while showing me around the room.

For food, talk to the chefs on the first floor, and they will make any menu for you regardless of the time.

“Let’s go and check the status of Eclair and Chloe first.”

When Roman jumped up from the bed, Alice, who was startled, grabbed his arm as if to support him.

“Ooh, do you mind if I move?!”

– Hissing…

Two pairs of bright eyes looking at you with concern. No, three pairs including Tero.

Roman moved his body around and even rotated his mana. She nodded and was convinced.

“It’s okay. I slept well, and I wasn’t hurt.”

So, the two of them headed to Atra’s room and confirmed that Sister Dritna was okay.

When we all returned to the room holding hands, Rike and Seria were back.

“Brother, let’s go.”

“Where?”

“You have to eat to gain energy.”

If it were a mansion in the capital, it would have been early in the morning, but the meal continued at Ricke’s recommendation.

Originally, there seemed to be a set menu to serve the group, but at Ricke’s request, a generous selection of some of the best health foods in the Federation were placed in front of Roman.

“Oppa. You have to eat it all, don’t leave any leftover.”

I had nothing to say when I looked at Rike’s eyes as if he knew how worried everyone was.

Eclair and Chloe are happy about the vitality in their lower abdomen, but their faces also feel guilty for putting Roman through strain.

I comforted her earlier, but it seems it will take some time for her sister to relieve her guilt.

“Well… I’ll try my best.”

With determination, Roman picked up his fork and knife.

Fortunately, the taste of the dishes I saw for the first time was not bad. No, it was actually great.

There were quite a few things that were repulsive just because of their appearance, but when you put them in your mouth, the taste melted away even that repulsion.

After chatting with everyone and emptying the food piled on the table, Roman patted his stomach and even took a bite of the dessert that was said to be mixed with medicinal herbs.

I lay down in the same bed with my lovers and slept soundly until morning.

*****

The morning when the sun rises.

After having breakfast with unique fruits that can only be found in federal countries, we exchanged opinions.

After announcing her wedding date and before returning to the Empire, she said that since she had come this far, she wanted to tour the capital, so we all made plans and wondered how much time had passed.

Varian came to visit and told us that Theodor Spenta had escaped by breaking the wall of the hospital room.

Roman laughed and Atra sighed at the picture, which was somehow expected.

One way or another, it is true that it is a time when we must absolutely take stability. Varian knows where Theodore has gone.

But I don’t have the ability to bring it. I went there and was already kicked out.

“I would like to ask the distinguished guest, Roman, without any shame…”

As soon as she announced the short news, Roman quickly grabbed Varian, who was about to get on her knees and headbutt her.

··

“They don’t listen to me when I tell them not to drink.”

“It’s fast. I thought it would come if I did this already.”

Theodore, who was sitting in the clock tower and passing through a bottle of wine, turned his head to see someone.

Then, naturally, I handed the unopened wine to Roman.

Roman took it and opened the lid.

“If you’re going to invite me out for a drink, there’s a nice way to do it.”

“When I tried to go out the front door, various people were holding my legs and clinging to me, telling me I couldn’t move.”

Roman, sitting on the clock tower, tilts his bottle towards Theodore.

The Yongin people giggled and gently hit the bottle and voila! It made a sound.

‘It’s not something I would say, but what is resilience…’

After gulping down a glass of wine, Roman’s gaze swept over Theodore’s body.

New flesh has already sprouted over the cracks and the shell has settled down. It makes me wonder inside.

“Ha…! It’s been a while since I tasted a good drink.”

“When you finish drinking, go back to the hospital room. You should also think about the subordinates who are suffering below.”

“I will do so. A loser whose life was saved by mercy must be listened to kindly.”

“Oh my. You’re making such a fuss.”

The second time mixed with laughter.

Theodore confirmed that the bottle was almost empty and spoke out.

“Roman.”

“Why?”

“What should I do to become stronger?”

“Suddenly?”

“I have never tried to become stronger. Among the dragon race, it is rare to find someone who systematically learns something. A guy like Varian is special.”

“Hmm.”

This guy is trying to beat me. The eyes are honest.

I like the spirit of victory that erases fear even after being hit like that. I wonder how strong he will become if he continues to deal with him.

‘This style…’

I hold the clinking wine bottle and think seriously.

The view looking down seems to refresh the mind.

It was not depicted that Theodore would become stronger by learning martial arts.

In fact, even if the movements shown during sparring were based on instinct, it was not simply a simple push with force.

There were various changes and even a plan to catch the opponent.

Even if you take away his overwhelming speed and strength, it is clear that he is so difficult that it is impossible to compare him to those who walked around with their shoulders straight, claiming to be masters and all.

“Wouldn’t it be better to fight a lot to get a feel for it? I think the balance is good right now.”

“In the end, it’s an experience with a strong enemy… It’s difficult.”

“Anyway, we’ll spar again. Don’t be too confused.”

“!”

Was I excited by the word I was waiting for?

Theodore flapped his wings and jumped up.

“When are you going to fight again?! Roman. I’m fine now.”

“I can’t do it now because I promised to tour the capital. Get your body back on track. Do you remember what I wrote in the letter?”

Theodore immediately thought of those words.

– Be prepared in the best condition.

– Don’t disappoint.

Words that are imprinted in my mind. Theodore nodded without hesitation any longer.

“Um… I understand. Are you going to continue to work at the federal agency?”

“No. I’m a bit busy right now, so I think that might be difficult.”

He said he would give me this instead.

Roman handed Theodore the warm wedding invitation that Ricke had hastily made in his room.

“Now that I think about it, this is the first wedding invitation given to people around me. It would be better to give the first wedding invitation to a friend rather than an old person or nobleman.”

“Friend…”

“If you’re not busy, come visit the empire. I’ll prepare plenty of meat and alcohol.”

Theodore, who was muttering and thinking over words, nodded with blazing eyes, saying that he would definitely go.
