I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband - Chapter 190
190 – Part 2 Episode 19, Old Memories.
Now that the preliminary fuse training is finally over, the resealing work can begin.
Of course, it will take a while because there is still a process to regain strength before that.
Still, if you want to progress quickly and rest, you have to move as fast as possible, right?
To do that, I had to meet the goddess, so I decided to lie down in bed and get a good night’s sleep as soon as I got home.
“Then I’ll come back.”
Stella, who seemed to be worried about me, followed me by the hand holding my hand to the front of the clock room.
In my arms, Luna is looking at me while stretching out her hand and making an “Awww” sound.
Are you asking me to catch it?
When I approached Luna and gently held her hand, she smiled brightly, which was rare.
After all, my daughter…
It’s the second cutest thing in the world.
Of course, the first one is Stella.
“Mr. Seobang… are you planning to sleep here?”
An expression as if asking why are you sleeping here?
He smiled bitterly and stroked his cheek.
Actually, the master bedroom is the best for sleeping.
Because there is a soft bed and soft pillows.
However, in order to meet the goddess, you cannot be too absorbed in it.
This is because an ambiguous state is best, like a lucid dream.
“I feel comfortable sleeping here during the day.”
“Is that so…”
Nonetheless, she looks at me with concern.
I guess I’m really worried because I heard there could be serious side effects to regaining my strength.
It’s not that I don’t understand.
Because even I am afraid of what might happen.
But, it is something that must be done nonetheless.
“Don’t worry. Rather, while I’m sleeping, please call the Great Sage, Vias, to the front of this room.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve sent a message through the guardian priest.”
He was worried about me until the end, but he told me to wait in the living room and sent him off saying it was okay.
I waved slightly as I watched them go down the elevator, and Stella smiled and waved at me as well.
“Whoa…”
Then, should I go in and close my eyes?
I opened the door wide, went inside, and sat down on the sofa where I always enjoyed sitting.
A large sofa that is long and wide so you can lie down.
I laid down, placed a pillow under my head, and covered myself with a blanket.
The interior has a cold air conditioner running 24/7 to control moisture.
I slowly closed my eyes, feeling the cool breeze.

Now I can walk back and forth here as if I were going back and forth in my bedroom.
As I opened my eyes and sat down on the chair, the goddess who had finished getting ready came over and sat down next to me.
You have a very serious expression.
If God had a face like that, the creatures would urinate.
She slowly placed her hand on my shoulder.
– It’s really good, right?
“It’s okay. Plus, Vias is waiting outside.”
No, I’ll be waiting.
That guy must have made all sorts of preparations just because he felt sorry for me.
Anyway… the saying, ‘Do good while you have it’ comes from times like this.
I nodded, saying that I was truly okay, and the goddess sighed, saying that she understood.
Rather than a sigh of relief, it felt like a lament for me, who wouldn’t listen no matter how many times I tried to persuade him.
– If you say it that way… I still feel so pathetic that I have no choice but to rely on Elvin.
A goddess who blames herself for not being able to directly intervene in the underworld.
I feel like I want to scold her because I feel like she has too little pride for a goddess.
Ugh, if I were in a past life, I would have patted my head hard to make me come to my senses.
When you were traveling… did you pet her often?
My memory is vague.
Well, things like this will happen less often now.
Rather than stroking my head, he lightly stroked the hand on my shoulder.
Since the relationship is between humans and gods, stroking one’s head seems like a violation of good manners.
I can’t even do that anymore.
I need to pat Stella and Luna’s heads a lot.
“Don’t say things like that. You brought it on yourself in the first place.”
– All right. Well then, Elvin… please take care of me.
“I will do my best as a warrior.”
Even if it’s like this, you’re a hero.
The goddess just needs to pamper herself and eat.
And just give me the reward I want.
Hehe… I haven’t decided what kind of reward I should ask for yet, but I’m thinking of asking a favor that might shake the foundation of this world.
Since it helped us avoid the path of world destruction, that’s okay, right?
After all, humans are beings who shake the laws and foundations of the world.
Anyway, putting that thought aside for a moment…
I took a deep breath and slowly closed my eyes.
After checking that I had closed my eyes, the goddess went behind me and placed her hand on my back.
I felt a thin finger…
I suddenly felt a tremendous energy.
Commonly, it was a divine power belonging to the higher concept of what is called magical power.
“Keuuu……!”
– Just a little… Cheer up a little. You are a warrior who can do anything… So…
Suddenly, the goddess’s voice began to be muffled, as if her speech had stopped.
Obviously, it was still like someone had their hand on my back.
It’s hot.
I feel like my soul will burn.
If it were other people instead of me, their souls would have already perished.
Divine power is the power that penetrates the soul.
I felt as if something contained in my soul would be pulled out by the divine power that flowed like a river.
Ah… That’s why I said it was dangerous.
Even if I tried, it wouldn’t have lasted even 10 minutes… My mind had already moved from the pure white space where I was with the goddess to a far, far away place, as if I was being swept away by a wave.
It’s not a pure white space…
A space of emptiness where nothing exists.
I couldn’t even recognize where I was, so I lost all feeling in my hands and feet, and the concept of up, down, left, and right disappeared, so I started to feel like I wasn’t myself.
Where am I?
Until recently, I was with the goddess in a pure white space.
– Can you hear me?
“Goddess?”
Thank goodness.
Fortunately, my soul, swept away by divine power, seems to be connected to the goddess.
Only then did the feeling in my hands and feet begin to return and my vision began to return.
Nevertheless, it was no different from being a space of nothingness.
– Elvin. This is where you were born.
“Are you here?”
I wondered what kind of place there was, and they said it was where I was born.
It seems that the goddess is mistaken.
I wasn’t born in a place like this.
Obviously, I was born on Earth and lost my parents when I was young… in an orphanage…
No…
I grew up in a quiet fishing village.
He had no memory of his parents, but with the help of the villagers and Stella… he became an adult who was able to feed himself well…
Huh?
Stella?
– Did you remember?
“It’s strange. Rather, I feel like my memories are all mixed up.”
It seems like the memories of my past life and my current life are all mixed up.
Certainly, I have unmistakable memories of being called to this world as soon as I was born and growing up in a fishing village.
But what about Stella?
The only Stella in my head is… Stella?
– No. Your memory is correct.
“Is that so… There’s no way Stella existed 3,000 years ago, right?”
– No, there was.”
“What is that…”
I don’t understand at all.
Why does Stella, who is living at this time, still have memories of being with King Jin from 3,000 years ago still in my head?
Anyone who looks at it can only see it as multiple memories coming in at the same time, causing confusion.
In the first place, Stella…
Sister Stella…
No, Stella…
“Stella…?”
At that time, I suddenly felt a shock as if someone was pouring ice water on my head.
A fragment of a memory engraved deep in my soul suddenly came to mind.
A vague memory.
It was full of childhood memories from my previous life.
Most of my memories are of running around in the mountains behind me or jumping into the ocean.
And even the memories of that day when my once peaceful life collapsed…
It was definitely there.
The girl with silver hair and blue eyes who always took care of me in the fishing village.
– Even after you became a warrior and left the village, Stella only thought about you.
“……..”
I know.
Because I remembered everything too.
As I traveled with saints and great sages, I always thought of Stella.
While wandering around various villages, I stopped by the Adventurer’s Guild and received a letter from Stella.
Stella waited for me until the end.
I also waited for the day to return to the village where Stella was waiting.
But, I died.
Because of a very small mistake.
From noble mtl dot come
– And you asked me to do it after you died. May you be reborn when you return to this world.
“No way… Sister Stella…”
– I don’t know that it’s a past life or a rebirth. However, the love I give you back then and now is no different.
For a moment, a sigh came out.
It was strange from the beginning.
At that time, I thought it was because I was hungry for love due to lack of affection, even if it was a love whose origin was unknown…
However, thinking about it now, it definitely feels unnatural.
Wasn’t the love Stella gave me too much?
So much so that I can’t even see the person I met for the first time.
It’s like a relationship that’s been together for decades.
