Lakrahan leaned his body towards her.
Feeling Lakrahan’s gaze, Bercheria turned her head and looked quietly at him, then blinked and shifted her body forward again.
“About what was said earlier.”
Lakrahan, startled, opened his hands in the air.
“No, don’t feel burdened by it. It was just…”
“Was it a lie?”
At Bercheria’s question, Lakrahan looked down and whispered.
“It wasn’t.”
It was the first time he had ever felt as though his skin was burning.
When he could no longer bear the silence,
Bercheria was the first to speak.
“Thank you.”
Her beautiful voice echoed, but Lakrahan’s face showed signs of confusion.
“Eh?”
“I’m sincerely grateful for your wish to help me.”
“Ah, yes.”
His heart tickled inexplicably.
“I feel the same way.”
Realizing how unusually stiff he was, Lakrahan stretched his long legs under the chair.
He leaned back, letting go of the tension that had enveloped him moments before.
“I’m also grateful you showed up and didn’t run away. I almost got married alone.”
At Lakrahan’s joke, Bercheria chuckled lightly.
It was the same laughter he had heard on the day she first arrived at the castle.
A clear sound, like small water droplets bursting.
Bercheria fidgeted with the knot on her bouquet.
“I have something to say.”
Lakrahan’s shoulders tensed at Bercheria’s words.
“Go on.”
Though it was not a response to his confession, the tension he had just released flooded back in.
“Say whatever you want. I’ll accept it all.”
And thus he was adding unnecessarily stiff words.
Bercheria looked up at Lakrahan.
“Emperor Gerard will be passing through the portal and coming here soon.”
Lakrahan couldn’t process what had unexpectedly come out of Bercheria’s mouth and questioned back.
“What do you mean?”
“Exactly as I said. The Emperor has departed for the northern part of this place.”
“He’s coming here?”
Lakrahan’s jaw muscles bulged.
Kelita had just passed away, so he had thought that there would be more time left.
During that time, he had not considered it insufficient time to hold a wedding ceremony with Bercheria and manage the northern territories.
‘Was Gerard always this quick-witted?’
“Where did you hear that information?”
Bercheria shook her head.
“I can’t tell you that.”
She couldn’t mention that she had heard it from the guardian deity of the Kingdom of Kontana.
“But you can trust me.”
Lakrahan stood up from his seat.
“Fine. If you trust it, I’ll trust it too.”
Lakrahan quickly calculated the time in his head.
It didn’t take long to move from the royal palace to the portal.
Moreover, crossing through the portal took only a few minutes at most.
If the Emperor had already left the royal palace, there was no time.
Could they finish the wedding ceremony before he arrived?
If the priest could simply verify their marriage, everything would become much easier.
Even if one were the Emperor, unless there was a significant reason, one could not take the Duke of the North’s wife to the royal palace.
Especially if her identity was Bercheria; due to the nature of a wife belonging to her husband’s status, it wasn’t simple.
It was equivalent to dragging the king of a country into the royal palace without any special reason.
“Bercheria.”
“Yes.”
“Will you wait here for a moment? I’ll go check if the priest has arrived. If the preparations are complete, I’ll send someone so we can start the ceremony immediately.”
“Okay.”
“Good.”
As Lakrahan was about to leave, he turned back to her.
As Bercheria looked up at him, Lakrahan hesitated for a beat before speaking.
“You look especially beautiful today.”
As Bercheria’s lips parted slightly, Lakrahan impulsively bowed his waist toward her.
As their lips almost touched, he hesitated for a moment, lifted his chin, and lightly pressed his lips against her forehead, above the veil.
“I’ll be back.”
When Lakrahan turned around and left the room, a thin sigh escaped from between Bercheria’s lips, who had been holding her breath until then.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
