I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 897
13. No time for romance, my wife!
Staying in this place of trouble will only attract more unnecessary attention. In the Rodema Empire, the chaos fairy Claudius is already a “superior being,” but Kefir and I, who want to remain “low-key,” can’t stand being surrounded by onlookers because… Nilu is not around, and without the “command” ability of the fairy Jiyas, our actions must be cautious and careful.
Especially… now.
Without saying much, Kefir and I silently led the fairy Claudius, sent by Nilu, to our residence—though “residence” is just a temporary lodging we found. After all, neither Kefir nor I would have thought that: we had just arrived in the Rodema Empire, and before we could even slightly enjoy our time together, we encountered that incident right away.
But at this moment, compared to those extras just now, I am more concerned about the fairy in front of me—Claudius.
[Claudius and Euclid contact!]
At the moment when Kefir closed the door for us, the script appeared. However… this seemingly ordinary script, with no extra content, made me feel inexplicably strange.
Unfortunately, I can’t find any “entry point” now, nor do I have time to think about it. After all, this fairy lady from Nilu seems to have a big opinion of me and has been staring at me.
“You two, it looks like you just arrived in the Rodema Empire.”
As far as the eye can see, although Claudius followed us into the room, she didn’t have the slightest intention of getting close to us. Even though it was a reunion, this purple witch still held her crystal ball, and even a novice like me could feel that she was wary of me.
If there’s anything strange, it’s that: everything about this fairy in front of me is strange, but according to the script, she is indeed the genuine chaos fairy Claudius from Nilu. No wonder Kefir whispered in my ear, “Did you do something bad to her?”
But… I’m innocent, my dear wife. I haven’t done anything strange to this fairy. I’m still puzzled myself.
The next moment, I shook off the wild thoughts in my mind and said, “We just arrived in the Rodema Empire. Rather… your appearance surprised me. You found us too quickly.”
Although I had thought: Could this be the “grand welcome” that Nilu prepared for me? But Claudius’s shaking head finally dispelled my doubts.
Come to think of it, how could Nilu give me today’s surprise in such an “explosive” way?
“It was a coincidence that I found you, and then I followed you all the way and saw that scene. As for the result, you don’t need to thank me. After all, it was our Rodema Empire’s people who were arrogant and ignored the ban, making mistakes first. So I just gave a normal lesson, not standing up for you, Euclid.”
“……”
I frowned but still suppressed my displeasure.
After all, I am quite familiar with Nilu’s fairy, and Claudius is the one who hates me the most among all of Nilu’s fairies because of some “past events.” Her attitude towards me now is quite ordinary.
Before I could respond, Claudius continued.
It seemed that she found us not just to stand up for us but also had other purposes.
Maybe this is Claudius’s real intention?
“Since you two have arrived in the Rodema Empire, there is no need to stay in such a place in the city. Why not come with me to see my master?”
Nilu?
Ah, come to think of it, besides half-seriously investigating the history of the white-haired elves, Kefeier and I came to the Rodema Empire to see Nilu. After hearing that I was coming to the Rodema Empire, the excited Nilu left first, saying she wanted to prepare a “grand welcome” for me. It’s been so long, Nilu should be anxious by now.
I hadn’t even had time to speak when Kefeier, who was more contradictory, spoke first.
Although she always quarrels with Nilu over trivial matters when they meet, after not seeing Nilu for so long, Kefeier seemed to miss her and wanted to agree immediately!
So… I couldn’t hesitate at all!
“Let’s wait a bit longer!”
Before Kefeier could speak, I grabbed her arm and stopped her, “We still have some ‘personal issues’ to resolve after arriving in the Rodema Empire.”
In fact, Kefeier and I had no “personal issues” in the Rodema Empire, but this time I just wanted to continue our “two-person world” for a while longer.
Without a moment’s pause, I tried my best to use a serious attitude to cover up the lie in my words. At the same time, I checked the script to see what the fairy Claudius in front of me was thinking.
“Meeting Nilu is something I’ll do when I get the chance, okay?”
“……”
Although she was a bit dissatisfied with my words and frowned, Claudius didn’t notice the small lie in my words and agreed quite readily.
“Of course, no problem. Then please take this token. If you want to see the master, just show this.”
As she spoke, Claudius took a white flower from her hair ornament and placed it on the table. Without even saying goodbye, she opened the door and left on her own.

The sound of the door closing left me alone with Kefir in the room. After a moment of silence, my dear wife couldn’t hold back any longer.
“Did you really not offend her? This fairy’s attitude towards you is too bad…”
“Hahaha…”
I can’t help it, dear wife. Claudius has never had a good attitude towards me from the beginning.
As for this time…
I watched as Kefir carefully put away the “token” left by Claudius and then whispered.
“Sorry, Kefir, our ‘honeymoon trip’ might have to end early this time.”
[Eucleides and Kefir hid in the Rodema Empire.]
With the appearance of the script, I could only remind her of this sentence that puzzled Kefir. If possible, I would also like to have a honeymoon trip with Kefir, but unfortunately…
Now, for some reasons, we have to enter “work” mode early. The time I just lied to buy is definitely not for a “two-person world” with Kefir, but to “reinvestigate history.”
Sorry, dear wife, it seems that even if you think “the seven-day period is over,” I have to extend the “prohibition time” a bit longer. No time for romance, dear wife!
