The Villain Wants to Live Quietly - The Villain Wants to Live Quietly chapter 174

Special Chapter. Flowers bloom and bear fruit (5)

In the end, it wasn’t until just before dinner that Raymon was free from his sister’s nagging.

“You’ve worked hard, brother-in-law.”

“hahahaha… What about suffering?”

When Ludwig patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, Raymon laughed bitterly and spat out empty words.

I didn’t expect that such a anger was dormant inside the gentle sister, but on the other hand, I thought it couldn’t be helped, partly because he was so lukewarm.

How frustrating it must have been to give such sincere advice.

Thanks to that, I felt like I heard a story that would become blood and flesh, so I was grateful.

It was still tingling in my ears.

“Emilia suffered a lot too. It’s the first time I’ve seen you talk for so long.”

“I, without realizing it, have become so sincere. It must have been more because it reminded me of our dating days.”

Emilia, who was ashamed of the fact that she had been talking about it for almost half a day, blushed.

She was usually more of a listener when a topic was brought up, since she was rarely so talkative.

In a way, it was also because there were so many things to talk about.

Ludwig also had a lot to understand about this.

“Okay, I understand. I was a bit nerdy at the time.”

Even in his opinion, during the days of dating, more precisely, during the days when they were friends right before dating, it was frustrating.

Even though I made up my mind, I was busy wandering around, and I was afraid to make progress between them, so I used to curl up.

“Yeah, if you take it that way, I’m in trouble.”

Meanwhile, at Ludwig’s self-deprecating words, Emilia expressed disapproval and patted him on the shoulder.

Of course, it can’t be said that he didn’t have a frustrating side when he was young, but Emilia found even that attractive.

The only reason why I swear to Raymon was because the case was different.

At that time, the two of them were quite active on Emilia’s side, so it was noticeable that their relationship was getting closer little by little.

Besides, even if a woman pretends not to be a creature, she implicitly hopes that a man will approach her.

There were times when she also had that kind of heart.

Perhaps thanks to that wind, after the marriage, Ludwig’s side took the lead, but more and more.

Anyway, Raymon bowed his head to thank him for the good advice he had given his sister.

There was nothing wrong with what she said, even if it was a bit forced.

Rather, it made a revolutionary contribution to calming his mind, which was a little confused.

“Thank you very much, sister. Thanks to you, I’ll be able to treat Elona with dignity.”

“Your name must have been Miss Elona. Anyway, I’m glad. Please do your best, Raymon.”

Emilia, who gave encouragement by patting her brother on the shoulder, turned around and headed to the restaurant with Ludwig.

Then, he stretched out his hand and put it between his arms, then crossed his arms, and as if in response, Ludwig smiled at her and said something.

‘What a good couple.’

Looking at her back, Reimon strengthened her resolve.

He said that one day, he would also try to have such a harmonious relationship with the woman he liked.

He said that it would be more urgent than becoming a man worthy of the head of the Bayemurn family.

Dinner started with such a welcome guest.

In the midst of enjoying the food that came out as an appetizer and enjoying the main dish, Stefan suddenly opened his mouth.

It was to reaffirm the news I had overheard earlier.

“Come to think of it, you’re going to Astepor tomorrow?”

“Yes, father-in-law.”

After putting the fork down for a while, Ludwig nodded, and Yulia responded in a very unexpected way.

“Oh, to Astepor? It’s a big deal. Do you have any business?”

As far as she knew, Ludwig had never been to Astepor since the curse was lifted from Emilia’s eyes.

But I’m going to stop by there all of a sudden.

Anxiety sprouted, wondering if there might have been an unspeakable situation like that time.

“It’s not to the point of being a business, but… I plan to take Anis with me to the temple for a while.”

“To the temple? Are you planning to visit even the Goddess Hypresia?”

Basically, the people sitting here are not particularly religious.

However, in the case of the Bayemurn couple, I believed that their existence existed through what happened between Ludwig and Emilia, so I asked just in case.

That would be the only reason Ludwig would stop by the temple.

“Similar. I thought it would be nice to go on a memory trip with my daughter for a while.”

“Well, it must be a place with deep meaning to you.”

Yulia nodded as if she could guess, and a question mark appeared over Anis’ head, who was only listening to their conversation.

She had heard that he was stopping by Astepor, but she did not know the exact reason.

“Do you know why your grandmother is going to Astepor?”

“Then don’t know. How can we not know Right, honey?”

“Well. It’s an unforgettable place… … .”

It wasn’t because the Bayemurn family had worshiped the Goddess Hypresia for generations.

It’s just that Astepor was the place where the two truly met their daughter again, the beginning and the end.

And it was this man in front of me who untied the chains that were so complicatedly entangled.

Looking at the two people who were so sentimental that they stopped eating and kept their mouths shut, Ludwig smiled calmly and added.

“Besides, I had an appointment, so it was a car I thought I would visit at least once.”

“A promise?”

“It was like that when we parted ways after seeing Goddess Hypresia for the last time. One day, a beautiful child will be born between me and Emilia, and when that child grows up, he said to come and say hello.”

Stefan and Yulia’s eyes were filled with surprise at the story they had heard for the first time.

Maybe that’s why he chose tomorrow as the day he hadn’t visited before.

“Emilia, did you know?”

“Yes, I also heard from him a while ago. Because I have never met Goddess Hypresia.”

Emilia also seemed to have a deep connection with Goddess Hypresia, but in fact, she had never actually seen it.

Because Ludhibi was the only person who met and talked with Goddess Hypresia at this place.

That’s why I just conveyed the words she conveyed to Emilia instead.

“Dad, have you really seen Goddess Hypresia?”

“yes. Why, do you think Dad would lie?”

“Heh, it’s not like that, but it’s kind of strange.”

Meanwhile, Anise couldn’t hide her surprise at the fact that her father had actually encountered a goddess who only existed in legend.

She knew that her father was a great man, but he did not know that he was a man who faced a god that is difficult even for believers to witness.

Besides, it’s normal to be suspicious of something like this, but Anis had none of that.

Of course, she had never heard a single lie from Ludwig before.

It could be said that it was a trust close to faith.

“There is also a stream running near the foot of the mountain on the way to Astepor… Shall we go fishing there?”

“like.”

Anis, like Ludwig, likes fishing, so this kind of suggestion was always welcome.

Emilia also liked to enjoy the quiet time passing by with such women, so in a sense, it could be said that they were a family that got along really well.

“Are you going out together as a family? nice.”

“Will your father-in-law join you?”

“I’m done. It’s been a long time, so let’s go home with the three of us.”

The short trip to be held this time is a memory trip only for the Ipretz family.

Knowing that there was no room for him to intervene, Stefan declined and continued the meal again.

“How many years have you been visiting?”

“Sixteen… No, I think it must have been over 17 years.”

“Nearly twenty years. Time goes by so fast… … .”

What happened that day is as vivid as a memory from yesterday, but it has already passed that way.

Feeling mixed feelings, Emilia watched her husband’s side profile, then reached out and touched the back of his right hand.

“What’s wrong?”

“Whoops, it’s just that. I think it’s been so long since I married you… Things from the past passed by like a kaleidoscope.”

“There will be many more days to be together. The same goes for Anise.”

“Yes. That makes me happy.”

I know it can’t last forever, but the fact that there are more days left was the most hopeful fact for her.

Who would have known that a foolish girl who had only been confined to her home and showing distrust of others would have such a decent family and see a child who would succeed her.

“I am looking forward to tomorrow. Will the goddess greet you in person?”

“It’s something you have to go to know. But even if you don’t welcome it, I think it’s meaningful as it is.”

I just go back and look back at the places I passed by on the way after the trip is over.

Wouldn’t that alone take up a lot of meaning in the journey of life?

Moreover, at that time, Anise had not yet entered Emilia’s stomach.

So, tell your daughter about what happened that day, and tell her what a new story started there.

This was Ludwig’s idea.

“I’m looking forward to hearing the stories of my dad and mom while fishing.”

“Whoops… Even if you say that, Anise is a sleepy person, so she might end up falling asleep.”

“Oh no! I will definitely hold on!”

Calm laughter spread around Anis’s boastful words.

It will be known tomorrow if she will be able to spend the night listening to their story to the end.
