My Wife Waited in the Wheat Fields - My Wife Waited in the Wheat Fields chapter 75
#14 Crossroads (4)
There was a moment in my life when I realized that the flow of time is not necessarily constant.
These days were like that for Tyria.
Even after Elric’s inauguration was decided, it was about a month.
The first few weeks seemed to go by so quickly, but with the inauguration three days away, I was beginning to resent how time passed so slowly.
There must have been many reasons internally and externally, but in the end, if I had to pick one, it was insecurity.
The inauguration ceremony is a place where Elric declares that he will protect this place for the rest of his life as the owner of Wibin.
Wouldn’t the weight of the words that were publicly declared a bit less?
Could the ceremony under the king’s personal letter be held carelessly?
Embarrassingly, the anxiety that Elric might run away again due to such a burden grew stronger.
I had a criminal record, so I couldn’t help it.
Besides, my legs are all better now.
But that worry is over.
The morning of the inauguration ceremony finally dawned.
“Madam, did you cough?”
The maid knocked on the door before the cock even crowed.
Tyria, who was already awake, replied in a plain tone.
“Come in.”
“yes.”
With a click, the head maid and the chief maids entered the room, drew the curtains and made the bedding.

Tyria sat on a chair and stared at the world outside the window that was getting brighter.
‘I should have slept a little better.’
No, I couldn’t sleep any longer.
Today was finally the day of the inauguration ceremony, so it was hard to fall into a deep sleep.
Furthermore, thinking about the scale of the inauguration ceremony, the chronic disease, anxiety soared all night.
“Maid, were there any other guests who stopped by Weebin last night?”
“Yes, there was news that the princess came on the last train of the railroad late at night.”
“What is the situation at the inn now?”
“Oh no, don’t talk. The inn, the inn, is full of rooms, and the villagers temporarily invite guests into the house.”
“Has there been an accident?”
“We only selected people with clear identities, so you can rest assured.”
Tyria let out a deep breath.
Although Tyria lived in Wibin for 26 years, I can assure you that this village has never been so crowded.
To that extent, this inauguration ceremony was an important matter for the entire Ferdinand Kingdom.
It was the same even if I left the external thing.
Portman is the first aristocratic family in Ferdinand to emerge in 100 years. Of course, I was talking about a succession title, not a single victory.
In addition, the acquaintance with Prince Graham at the last banquet.
In addition, it became a hot topic not long ago when Prince Graham visited Wibin separately, so even aristocratic guests who came to hang out with Elric came from all over the place.
It was clear that accidents would break out everywhere if we were a little vigilant.
“Not everyone is accustomed to crowds like this. Please pay more attention to safety management.”
“Yes, I will leave it to the knights.”
“And speaking of the banquet hall. Did you finish this part properly?”
“Yes, we have obtained cooperation from the Yubin family.”
Tyria nodded.
Portman did not have a banquet hall attached to the mansion.
At least there is a space that can be called a hall, but since it has become a large event where even the princesses come, it is not possible to accommodate the number of people and to treat guests.
In the end, he asked for help from his parents, the Yubin family.
The relationship with the swings was very bad, but in the end, the Yubin family also had something to gain, so the answer came back in the affirmative.
‘It seems that all external preparations have been completed.’
Then there is only one thing left.
I’m going to meet the main character of the day.

“Honey, are you feeling okay?”
“It’s okay. Sleep less.”
Tyria stared blankly at Elric as he nibbled at the bread on the table.
His expression was very unsettling.
It’s been like this ever since the inauguration ceremony was decided.
When I ask about it, the answer comes back that I am just nervous.
I know it’s not true.
He must have had other concerns.
Perhaps, this inauguration itself was not to my liking.
Even knowing that, the reason why he enforced it was selfish.
I had to do this so that the anxiety that he would leave had subsided a little.
She knew that Elric was treating her with a warm voice and gestures like never before, but that didn’t relieve all her anxiety, so she did this.
Tyria needed a means of coercion, not just a covenant.
It was as if she needed a virtual leash to erase any remaining anxiety.
He himself admitted that.
Even so, it was also clear why he hadn’t spoken to him about this.
“… It will end well.”
He said that he had to relieve this anxiety by disregarding his feelings a little.
As I said before, it was for selfish reasons.
“I received a call about Captain Dynan’s younger brother. He said he would be coming here soon.”
“Ah, I heard that too.”
“The head of the household, please enter the cremation immediately.”
“What about your wife?”
“Hey, to the family… .”
“Give the family to me, and the younger sister to your wife.”
“… yes? Then what is the head of the household going to do?”
“It’s done. What is a man doing to make things look pretty?”
Those were not words that would come out of the mouth of the person who would become the main character.
But Elric’s attitude was uncommonly stubborn.
It’s not worth the time to argue.
It would be better to just tell the maids to be meticulous.
“All right. Stop standing up.”
When Tyria finished eating, Elric stood up.
At that time, Tyria suddenly realized.
For today’s meal, he never smiled.
*
It was a disturbing moment.
“lady! It’s been a while!”
The one who opened the door and entered was, of course, a very tall, gorgeous woman with makeup on par with a mask.
The tickling voice was creepy, yet welcome.
“How are you?”
“sure! How fortunate to see you again! My tears came to my eyes when I heard that you accepted my ugly brother as a knight!”
A ridiculously exaggerated hand gesture.
At that, Tyria’s expression began to relax a little.
Perhaps noticing that, she smiled and approached quickly.
“To expect. Because I will make you the main character today.”
“The main character should be the family head.”
“What a shame! Being beautiful is what makes the head of the family shine the most!”
“Thank you for your words.”
“Are you serious?”
I put my index finger on my lips and blinked my eyes open, which made many thoughts pass by.
Tyria froze for a moment.
“Why are you like that?”
“… No, he looks very similar to the leader.”
“Yes… ?”
At that moment, cold sweat poured down Danal’s back like a waterfall, but Tyria was unaware of it.
“Am I a brother or sister?”
After saying that, Danal tried to change the topic and started dressing her up.
“Then let’s begin! Please close your eyes!”
“Please take care of me.”
Tyria closed her eyes and fell into other thoughts.
I was replaying the inauguration ceremony in my head.
It was a good thing for Danalo.
‘Oh, didn’t you hear me?’
Today, the makeup was thicker than usual, the voice was thinned, and the posture was also studied repeatedly to make it more feminine.
I haven’t been doing this for a while, so I’ve had some anxiety, but fortunately, it seems that it’s over.
Tyria didn’t seem to feel awkward at all.
‘Let’s finish quickly.’
Danal, who made a decision, glanced at Ricky and Maven, who were dressed as women today.
The two nodded.
“Today’s concept is a neat bunch of flowers!”
Charleuk-!
The make-up tools were unfolded.
It was the moment when even Elric, who had a history of participating in imperial banquets, admired the cosmetic technique once again.
As if the hands of the three had multiplied into dozens, they began to leave traces.
*
“Good.”
After finishing her makeup, Tyria exclaimed and looked around at her reflection in the mirror.
I solved the problem safely today.
I should express it that way.
Danal smiled and raised his thumb.
“Come on!”
“Thank you. When I come back, I’ll be sure to give you plenty of thanks.”
After answering, Tyria quickly moved out of the room.
Ah, since he is the one who prepared the hardest for today’s inauguration ceremony, he must have no time to rest.
whatever it is good
“Huh, I’ll follow you!”
Danal, who sat down on the floor, took off his wig and fanned his hands.
Ricky and Maven also had exhausted faces, but they couldn’t sit down like Danal.
“Then we will move right away… .”
“Ah, suffer.”
Temporarily escaped for Tyria’s cremation, but their main job is as a knight.
If the three of them were away on a day like today, it would surely raise suspicion.
You have to go right back to your vigilance mission.
In this case, the leader was good.
Because I was able to rest a little more than others with my position.
Left alone, Danal untied the front of the dress.
‘I’m going to die from the heat.’
It’s even surprising how other women wear this long hair and tight dresses every day.
Are they really the same species?
‘Ah, when do I remove my makeup again?’
I have to throw off this thick mask, but why is the time so tight?
It was a moment when Danal let out a sigh.
Click!
“lady! Lord… .”
the door was open,
“… leader?”
Upon entering the room, Veron and Danal’s eyes met.
Danal, who took off her wig and half-naked dress, and Veron, who was wearing a full plate, stared at each other for a long time, as if they were stone statues.
At that moment, Danal could see Veron’s eyes shaking like crazy.
The words came out instinctively.
“… no.”
“I understand.”
“No. What do you understand?”
“I-I… !”
Veron closed his eyes and turned his head away.
Danal felt like going crazy.
At that moment, Baron shouted.
“Yes! Because the captain is a manly person! Dressing up as a woman is something only men can do! That’s why it’s the most manly thing to do!”
From noble mtl dot com
“What are you talking about!”
“I understand! I understand!!!”
The dew on the corners of Veron’s eyes glistened.
“Keugh! sorry!!!”
Shasha shak!
Veron turned around and ran out.
Should I say that it is phenomenal that he is using the shadow step perfectly even in the midst of this?
anyway,
“No, you crazy bastard!!!”
Danal screamed.
His ordeal was not over.
