Taming The Villainesses

Episode 196.2

(EP-196.2) Break #5

196 A Short Break #5

Mirna broke the ice as we got close to her dorm.

By any chance, has Lady Lioness been troubling you recently? Surely, she might try to disrupt our beautiful and blessed marriage?

Trouble?

Well, like trying to tempt you. She might manipulate Sir Theo like a puppet, and control you according to her own desires.

Right. Mirna and Elga were having their own little bet

Although she didnt show it, Mirna seemed worried that Elga might be seducing me and engaging in secret activities behind her back.

She really had a keen sense.

However, if I spoke the truth here, Mirna might explode with rage and turn me into an undead after slicing my throat, so I pretended not to know.

Well, not so far.

Huu, I see.

Mirna breathed a sigh of relief, seemingly reassured. Of course, she still casted a suspicious glance at me, but what could I do?

Not wanting the day to end on an awkward note, I decided to steer the conversation in a different direction.

So, when are you planning to hold the wedding?

I dont know. Theres still issues to consider. I also need to get Narmis approval.

Ah. Miss Narmi.

Narmi might not allow it. We just had a fight because she got our ears pierced without permission. If she finds out about something like this.

Indeed.

Mirna had fiercely argued with Narmi after getting her ears pierced. They fought so hard, they drew blood. But in truth, Mirna had done something even more significant.

Revealing this to Narmi I shuddered at the thought of how angry Narmi might be.

In the worst-case scenario, Narmi could oppose both my and Sir Theos marriage itself. Of course, well have to try to persuade her somehow.

I didnt think Narmi would oppose it. But there could be disagreements with the sisters, especially when there were secrets between them. Watching the Draco twins, I realized the importance of honest communication within a family.

Marriage.

Marriage, huh?

Then I suddenly became curious.

I am now a Rank 5 Archmage. Would there be any issue with marrying Mirna-nim? I heard that high ranking mages need to be careful when choosing a spouse.

Im also deeply involved in the path of magic, so thats not a problem. Besides, there arent many restrictions for male mages in the first place.

I see. So male mages didnt have that many restrictions on marriage, even if they were high-ranking.

Speaking of, Kasim was also a Rank 5 like me and he even had several wives. In fact, he was probably somewhere in Ark right now enjoying his happy time with the local women.

You have calmly judged the situation!

You have gained experience points through the talent Calm Thinking.

All job experience +5

No, I didnt really want to learn this

Anyway.

Before I knew it, we had already arrived at Mirnas door while chatting away.

As she safely entered her room, Mirna slightly opened the door and said through the gap.

Thank you for today and the Marumaru doll.

Lets see the festival together sometime.

Okay, when we get the chance.

In typical Mirna fashion, it was never a straightforward okay. But shed got proper reasons. She had her hands full as the Head of the Draco Family.

And just when I thought the door was about to finally close

If we get married, well enter the same house without ever parting like this, and well rest and be together, right?

Mirnas question, heard through the crack in the door, contained a natural yet tenderly romantic sentiment.

I hadnt really thought about it before. If we get married, wed live together, so parting at the door like this was unlikely to happen.

Bye!

Before I could reply, the door slammed shut. And with that, I made my way back to the Gold Rank dorms alone. The walk felt unusually long.

Did the guys who dropped off their girlfriends all felt like this? Probably not, as theyd be making calls and texting on their phones.

But in this world, there was nothing as convenient as a cellphone.

So, on the way back, I couldnt talk to Mirna. I was left alone to admire the stars in the night sky.

I wondered what Mirna was doing now? Was she doing her routine with her apple-mint-scented products?

I didnt know. But it was funny how I started thinking about what Mirna got up to when we just parted.

I chuckled to myself. Maybe such thoughts would disappear once we lived together

What was marriage?

Honestly, Id never seriously pondered about it, and had just been kind of pushing it aside to the neglected pile. But now, there was so much to consider.

Dolgak, gieeek.

I finally got to my room, which felt cool and refreshing.

Keongkeong-!

I didnt bring any food with me.

Keureureung!

I was greeted by Keongkeong, who was hard at work on his wheel. But the chilliness of the room made it still felt somewhat lonely.

Ah, the frostbloom!

Since I had left out the frostbloom, the room was chilling all day. As I carefully placed it in the fridge, I wondered how it would have been if someone had taken care of my room while I was away.

If someone lived with me in my room.

Would I someday live a life where someone welcomed me back after finishing work?

Just like a real family
