I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband - Chapter 185
185 – Part 2 Episode 14, Danger Sign
Stella’s first reaction when she found out everything about me.
It was anger mixed with worry.
I didn’t normally do that.
He made me kneel on the bed and scolded me harshly.
“I thought you had a problem that was really hard to talk about!”
“sorry…”
All I can do now is apologize.
Because coming up with other excuses is at the level of a red flag.
“There’s no way I could think of you as strange because of something like that, right?!”
“You are right…”
What she’s upset about is that she didn’t consult herself after her memories came back.
No matter how married you are, it’s natural that there are things you want to hide, so I didn’t make it an issue, but even though it was difficult, he was definitely angry at me for not consulting him.
This is my first time seeing Stella get so angry.
Seeing her, who always treats me with a bright smile, shout out loud and get angry makes me feel like crying for no reason.
“Whew… I hope this is the first and last time I get angry at my husband like this.”
“I’ll never do that again…”
“Now then, please hug me with your sorry heart.”
Then Stella opened her arms wide and closed her eyes to be hugged.
I got up from the bed I was kneeling on and hugged her gently.
Soft smell, soft touch.
The sense of touch and smell added to my slightly broken state of being scolded, so I sobbed for no reason.
“Our master has a weak heart, so he can’t say anything strongly. Pat pat.”
He patted my head strongly while making stroking sounds with his mouth.
I liked his touch so much that I hugged him tighter.
Maybe it’s because I grew up in an orphanage, but my lack of affection is quite severe, so there’s nothing I can do about it.
Stella means everything to me, so it makes me sad to think of her getting scolded by someone like that.
After that, he was held for a while and then sat down on the sofa in front of the bed.
Stella, who was sitting with her head on my shoulder, smiled slightly and slowly opened her mouth.
“I was very surprised when I heard that Seobangnim was Jinwangnim.”
“Well… I was quite embarrassed when I started to remember.”
I went through a period of identity confusion…
When I think about it now, it seems like it was a very scary week.
Strangely, it got better after a week.
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve grown psychologically, or maybe it’s just my heart that understands it.
“So you are saying that the West is resealing chaos again?”
“That’s probably the best thing to do in this situation.”
Otherwise, this world has no choice but to perish.
That’s what chaos is, and isn’t I the true king who was given a destiny for that purpose?
“Would you mind?”
Stella looked at me and asked seriously.
Not only are there concerns about myself, but there are also concerns about the world.
It’s worth worrying about.
Because the fate of the world depends on me.
And it’s just pathetic that I can’t give an answer in this situation where I have no power.
Since I don’t have enough memory to begin with, I can’t even get a sense of it.
“I can’t say anything right now.”
“Then won’t your condition just get worse for no reason? If you’re not sure…”
If you are not sure, there is no need to step forward.
He grabbed my hand and said that it was okay to just stay like this.
Actually, I want to do that too.
Even if the seal is unstable, it doesn’t mean that chaos will be released from the seal right now.
They say it lasts at least 500 years.
If he is resurrected, the goddess can just tell the hero 500 years from now to seal the chaos again.
But… the problem is that it can’t be done.
Aren’t natural disasters occurring here and there around the world because the seal of chaos has become unstable?
And what if I had properly sealed it in my past life in the first place?
This wouldn’t have happened.
It’s my responsibility.
When I think about the people who died in this earthquake, my shoulders feel so heavy that I can barely even lift my head.
“But I still have to… I’m sorry.”
He looked at Sister Stella once again and bowed his head to apologize.
I know that you are thinking of me, but I can’t quit here either.
As soon as she finished speaking, she slowly grabbed my hand and shook her head.
He stroked my cheek, gently wiped away the teardrops around my eyes, and opened his mouth.
“Don’t feel sorry for me. If you decide to do that, I will just stand by your side and follow you silently.”
When she said that she would always be by my side, the tears I had been holding in flowed out endlessly.
***
The Jinwang ancestral rites are held in a solemn atmosphere.
Previously, he offered alcohol to King Jin’s tomb as a low-ranking priest, but now he sits next to our saint as a warrior.
The warrior and the saint are seated on these gorgeous chairs.
I don’t know what it means… but it feels good.
“Mr. Seobang. How do you feel while watching the ancestral rites now?”
Stella, who was sitting next to me, was wrapped in my arms.
I looked around to see if the people standing around would see it, but they didn’t seem to be very interested.
The Jinwang ancestral rite is a solemn and important ancestral rite.
It doesn’t seem like the saint really cares much about what she does.
“Um… I don’t know…”
I am performing a ancestral rite for myself in my past life…
Although I am alive now, I am certain that I was dead in my past life, so it wouldn’t be particularly strange to hold a ancestral rite.
I also understand that there is nothing scarier than watching your own ancestral rites.
However, considering that people die anyway…
On the contrary, I feel grateful when I see a memorial service like this being performed for the dead King Jin.
“That’s natural. King Jin has accomplished something worthy of it!”
“Hmm…”
“Ah, the West was the true king.”
How can you say such shameful things so casually?
As expected, Stella is like older sister.
by the way…
I think time passed very quickly when I was in the role of offering alcohol.
As I sit here and watch it, it goes by very slowly.
What is the low-ranking priest who is lifting and moving the liquor thinking?
Let’s walk carefully?
If it breaks, is it really a big problem?
I was thinking something like that.
I’ll call you later and ask.
“Sir, we don’t have time for that.”
“Is there another event after this?”
“Is this impossible to begin with? There is still about three to four times the amount left.”
Wow… why on earth does the church headquarters hold such a big event…
Can’t the ancestral rites be completed by just providing rice and alcohol?
Since I am the true king, I don’t think it would matter if I did that.
He’s already dead anyway, so what kind of sacrifice is that?
“Whoa… I got excited for a moment…”
“But you still have to eat the ancestral rites.”
“I feel a little strange hearing those words from my wife…”
Should I just ask them to completely erase all memories of King Jin?
I think that would be much more convenient.

After the ancestral rites were over, I wanted to do something, and it was to take out the armor I used before and put it outside to display.
It seems that for maintenance purposes, it is only displayed outside for about 30 minutes, just one day a year.
From noble mtl dot come
And it seems like people come from all over the world to see it.
Looking at the place where the armor is displayed from afar, there are people who are worshiping it as if it were Mecca.
“Rather, they seem to have deeper faith than the citizens or priests of the religious countries…”
“Wouldn’t the citizens of the Church of Christ be a little dull because they are under the protection of His Majesty the King of Jin?”
Is it like the difference in emotion between someone who sees it all the time and someone who only takes the time to see it once in their life?
Well, there must be a huge difference between an ordinary person’s worship of the Goddess and Stella and I’s worship of the Goddess.
But that’s a bit too harsh.
That armor is a replacement for the armor that became unusable after being attacked by a monster during the adventure, and was purchased for 10 silver coins at a local blacksmith shop.
Immediately in the next big city, exchange it for armor worth 10 gold coins…
Obviously…
“Ugh….head….”
“Are you okay? Why suddenly…”
“No… I don’t remember what I did with that armor…”
Is it one of the memories that hasn’t returned yet?
No matter how much I try to remember what I did with that armor, I can’t.
The gap in memory is scarier than you think.
Because I’m curious about that memory, I feel like I want to find it.
Phew…it’s hard.
I feel a little sleepy because my head suddenly feels overloaded.
“But how is that armor stored like that?”
“I heard that it was found in the forest. Was it a month after His Majesty Jinwang passed away?”
“forest…?”
While I was traveling, I often stopped by the forest.
So, I guess you were thinking of replacing the armor and throwing away that armor?
I think that’s the closest answer right now…
Ugh… I feel strangely uneasy.
I don’t remember anything, but I feel like I’m detecting a danger signal mentally.
