Ilya seemed to be shocked after seeing that familiar face.
‘W, what is going on?’
Galina shouldn’t be here.
‘Galina is dead in both my past life and this life.’
Of course, there was a bit of a difference between the past when Ju-Heon was involved in the process, and the present.
But it was just a difference between shooting her before she turned into a monster or using his devil artifact to rip her to shreds after Galina became a monster.
That meant that there was only one explanation.
Ilya immediately tried to kill Galina.
“You damn artifact bastard. Stop trying to pull some shit on me and get lo…ugh!”
Dan smacked Ilya on the back.
“Hey! What the hell are you doing?!”
Dan ignored Ilya and quickly grabbed Galina. It was as if he had known about her existence in advance.
“Miss Galina, where is the Captain-nim’s bride? I need to take her…”
“No, I am his bride. I’m the one walking down the aisle today.”
“?!”
Even Dan was shocked this time. It was because Galina said the following.
“The brides-to-be failed to control the Treasure in the end! That is why I am going in their place…”
Ilya’s mind was so completely destroyed that it was almost impossible to recover.
‘What the hell did that Captain son of a bitch do now?!’
However, at that moment…
Bang!
“That woman is Seo Ju-Heon’s bride!”
“Get rid of the bride! Get rid of the bride!”
“!”
Terrorists who were against the Majesty suddenly appeared. There were the bastards who had the ring stolen from them as well.
“Get rid of Seo Ju-Heon’s bride! We must prevent the Majesty’s wedding!”
Galina then looked toward a narrow alley and nodded her head.
‘Hurry up and go! You’re going to be late!’
There were some familiar faces when they looked in the same direction.
‘Irene and Seol-A!’
Dan immediately realized Galina’s intentions after finding them.
‘She was using herself as bait for the real brides!’
That was right.
Ju-Heon’s wedding day was fated to be hindered in many ways.
Some dictatorships considered the Majesty to be a thorn in their eyes.
The reason there were so few enemies today was because they kept the date, location, and the identity of the bride all hidden until today.
It was obvious that the wedding would be delayed if things continued like this. That was why Galina, who had been with the ladies, chose to be the bait.
“Ah! The bride is escaping!”
“Chase her!”
The enemies started to attack Galina.
“Man…there’s less than an hour left. Why is the bride so late?!”
Back in the reception area, Julian felt as if his ass was on fire while looking at the clock.
“Will they make it in time? Are you sure nothing happened to them?”
Jaeha, unlike Julian, was very calm.
“Hey hey. Dan went to get them. I doubt anything happened to them.”
“Then what about Ilya and Galina?”
“As for them, well…I’m sure they’re hugging each other and crying. Who cares if they are late when he is meeting his dead lover who has come back to life?”
“What? They can’t be late! Weren’t we going to get Ilya and Galina married here today as well?!”
That was right.
Galina was a present Ju-Heon was giving Ilya. Something Jaeha came over and mentioned to Ju-Heon had been the motivation behind it.
‘Hey Captain-nim, are you unable to bring Galina back to life with your powers?’
‘What? How do you know about Galina? Did you……’
‘N, no! I didn’t dig into his past or anything! The little chick just told us over drinks!’
Ju-Heon seemed quite shocked to hear that.
‘Really? He told you himself? He told all of you?’
Ju-Heon had smiled with satisfaction.
‘I guess he’s finally let most of it go.’
Ju-Heon had a suspicious smile on his face before he quickly disappeared.
He had then come back with Galina. Ju-Heon was planning on sending that couple down the aisle in his place.
Why?
He expected that Irene and Seol-A would have been unable to control the Treasure before the wedding day.
‘I looked into it, and even I would find it difficult to activate it. I would probably need to slowly work on it for a year or two.’
‘Then…!’
‘I doubt that they’ll be able to do it by the wedding day. It is an auspicious day so I don’t want to waste it…’
‘Then I guess you’ll be walking down the aisle with artifacts……ugh!’
That was why Ju-Heon was going to be the cool guy who gifted this year’s date to his subordinate while aiming for a different year for himself.
But what?
[I succeeded!]
[I’m able to control the Treasure!]
‘?!’
Even Ju-Heon had been shocked to hear that unexpected news.
‘……They really managed to handle that shitty thing?’
Well, it was fitting for the women he chose for himself, but…
Anyway, Ju-Heon’s wedding was going to proceed as planned. He decided to make it a two part ordeal to have Ilya’s wedding today as well.
He thought it would be entertaining to have the same wedding anniversary.
That was why they just needed to get here, but……
“Why are they taking so long?! The bride is the most important part of the wedding! When will she get here?!”
Why were they taking so long?
“Irene Holten and Lee Seol-A are over there!”
Irene and Seol-A were grinding their teeth. They managed to get near the wedding venue thanks to Dan after Galina sacrificed herself as bait, but…
“Those shitheads…!”
Of course, she could easily send these bastards flying if she used her power of destitution.
However…
“Stop it! You must not use it at all today!”
“Ugh.”
Destitution was a power that brought destruction. Irene could usually control it, but it was different for extremely happy or sad days.
It was like fire meeting oil.
The power of destitution went berserk on her happiest or saddest days.
“So I will take care of these…”
Irene screamed as Seol-A was about to use her ghost artifact.
“You can’t use that either! It will turn into a funeral instead!”
“Ugh! Then another artifact…!”
Their enemies foamed at the mouth and were sent flying at that moment.
Crack!
“!”
[#$&#!]
Are you going to keep bothering us? Are you?!
The rope suddenly flew over and body slammed the enemies. The rope, wearing a red ribbon, seemed extremely angry as it whipped the enemies relentlessly.
“Aaah! This damn rope!”
“Ahh!”
The rope, which has powered up quite a bit now, was strong enough that just being hit by it felt as if your bones would break.
“Ugh! Uggggggh!”
They then heard a familiar voice.
“Hurry! There’s only 15 minutes left until the ceremony starts!”
“June!”
June, who came to get the brides, quickly summoned something.
Booooooooom!
They were artifacts. The most eye-catching of them was a large golden worm.
[Hand over a wedding gift if you want to go in, you sons of bitches!]
“Aaah! What the hell is that?!”
[Are you trying to freeload?! Huh?]
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
That bastard excitedly ripped the enemies off.
“Hurry up and go inside! Hurry!”
They urgently rushed into the wedding venue. Julian quickly ran over to them.
“Why are you two so late?! The Captain almost went to look for you guys. You should have called us if you were in a sticky situation!”
“We’re sorry…we thought that we would be able to make it over quickly…!”
“Multiple incidents layered on top of each other…”
“It’s fine since you are here now.”
“!”
Ju-Heon smiled and approached them. He was holding the beautiful dress made of the fairy’s winged cloth.
“Alright, you should go wear this now, shouldn’t you? I’ll put it on you since we don’t have much time.”
“Excuse me? N, no, wait…!”
Irene looked toward Seol-A for some reason and Seol-A smacked Irene’s back.
“Why are you doing this now? I’m going to wear it if you don’t want to!”
“……!”
Irene looked embarrassed as she grabbed Ju-Heon’s hand. Seol-A turned around saying that they should head to their seats and Julian asked.
“Seol-A, are you really okay?”
“Yes, it’s fine.”
‘It’s not like I won’t be able to marry the Captain-nim.’
She was just angry that she would not be the first to marry Ju-Heon!
‘Damn, what a pity! It was just by a few seconds!’
Both of them did activate the Treasure, but Irene had been just a bit quicker.
That was why Irene was walking down the aisle first.
A bet was a bet.
Furthermore, she still failed every so often, so she might as well train with it a little more.
‘You just wait, one year, two years…no, I’ll be married to him within a few months too.’
The wedding of the century was finally starting.
“Please be happy!”
“Irene, you’re so beautiful!”
“You have a handsome new son-in-law! Congratulations Mr. Holten!”
The two of their wedding was quite explosive.
Of course, the most explosive of them all was when Ju-Heon got to kiss Irene after the exchanging of the rings.
George looked ready to throw a dagger at Ju-Heon at that moment.
“Fuck, I’ll let you off since you are at least marrying Irene first!”
As they were finally taking the pictures they couldn’t take prior to the ceremony…
“Have you seen Ilya and Galina?”
Ju-Heon was looking for the two of them.
“I was going to have the two of them get married before the dinner party. Did they even show up to the wedding?”
An anxious Dan looked around.
“Yes sir, I definitely saw them there, but…”
“Ah, they’re over there.”
Jaeha, who was emptying a glass of wine, pointed to the back.
“But I don’t think they can get married today even if you find them. Well, they may never be able to get married at all……”
“What? Why?”
What was the reason behind it?
They heard someone screaming not too far away as Jaeha was about to respond.
“Ilyaaaaaaaaa!”
“!”
The team members became shocked and all rushed toward the noise. They found Galina and an unconscious Ilya on the ground.
“Ilyaaaaaaaaa! Wake up! Ilyaaaaaaaaa!”
Galina was crying with an almost dead(?) Ilya in front of her.
Ju-Heon urgently walked up to the two of them.
“What is it, what’s going on?”
“T, that…!”
Galina grabbed Ju-Heon and cried.
“Mr. Ju-Heeeeeeon! What should we do? Ilya can’t touch me at all~”
“?!”
That was right.
What was the point of this emotional reunion?!
Who cared if they were able to meet again like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl on July seventh?!
Galina was a Holy artifact after turning into Saint Mary’s artifact. Ilya was a devil artifact user.
He couldn’t touch her even though he wanted to do so because of the repulsion between the two types of artifacts!
Of course, Ilya wouldn’t let that stop him.
“N, no. The Captain did all of this so that we can meet again. I can touch you… No, fuck, I’m going to touch you! ……Ahhh!”
Ilya screamed and fainted while trying to touch Galina’s boob. The pain that felt as if he was being burnt to a crisp by thunderbolts was beyond anything he could have ever imagined.
An astonished Julian turned toward Ju-Heon.
“Hold on! You didn’t revive her as a person?!”
“A, ah. That…”
Ju-Heon was sweating bullets.
All he did was restore the destroyed Saint Mary’s artifact and revive Galina’s personality.
He just had to use the Akashic records to modify the part about how her conscience would be swallowed by the artifact as a risk.
Anyway, the current Galina was an artifact.
His original plan had been to use the Akashic records to turn her into a human, but…
[Warning. This is at the level of harming humanity.]
[It may end up changing the past and future of Earth.]
After being unable to do that, he just used the Raven’s Tears on her instead. The team members felt pity for Ilya.
“Does he have to break his contracts with his devil artifact?”
“No, he has so much negative karma that it’ll be difficult to break the contract.”
“Ah, our poor little chick…… This is like hopeful torture.”
Ju-Heon let out a fake cough after hearing that.
‘I didn’t expect it to be this bad.’
“Don’t worry. Our fat pig should be able to make something that will let you touch a holy artifact.”
‘At least I think she can.’
“Then I guess the two of them can’t get married today. Should we cancel part two?”
Chloe asked and Ju-Heon asked if there was a need to do so.
“In this case, why don’t we have the damn pushover and Nina get married? Don’t you two need to quickly get married?”
“?!”
Jaeha and Julian had extremely different, one full of joy, the other full of sorrow, expressions on their faces. Julian gasped and grabbed Ju-Heon by the collar.
“Hey, are you really going to be like this? You’re going to make them have a shotgun wedding like this?!”
Ju-Heon laughed before responding.
“You’re going to destroy all plans if we don’t do something like this.”
“Aaah! No! This wedding will not happen. Who gave them permission?!”
“Aww come on. You have no choice. Our niece is already waiting for us.”
“Aaaaaaaaaak!”
Julian could only boil with anger without being able to do anything.
However, at that moment…
“Who knows? Based on Jaeha and Nina’s situation, they could probably take it slow and wait a few years…”
“What? But Nina…”
“No, Nina is not pregnant.”
“?!”
The doctor bluntly blurted out the facts. The joy and sorrow was in reverse this time.
“Based on what Nina told us, it is questionable if they even did it…”
Joy nodded her head as well. Then was the reason Nina angrily kicked Jaeha because she seduced him so much but couldn’t put a hand on him?
Julian shouted with Joy while Jaeha was shaking.
“Then what about that pregnancy test?!”
The Supreme Leader of the artifacts smiled and feigned ignorance after receiving everybody’s gazes.
“Who knows? I’m getting old now so I might have made a mistake and thought I saw it in Nina’s room.”
“Hey!”
Jaeha was in disbelief while Julian was praying to God and cheering with joy.
“That dream of conception was just bullshit! Good, you guys break up right now! Break up!”
“Damn it!”
“It was just a damn dream that the two of you did it! Break up right now!”
“No! It wasn’t a dream!”
Jaeha felt wronged.
It had been Nina pushing him down, but he was sure of it.
It was back when he found out the truth about Nina’s feelings.
It was after Nina, the girl who he thought was a stalker and a murderer, almost died protecting him.
‘Hey Nina? I understand how you feel, but you’re injured. You got discharged from the hospital, but you can’t move yet… ugh!”
Nina had knocked him unconscious(?) as if telling him to shut up. Although he had some memories of that time, he thought it was a dream because he didn’t think he would do it with someone who was still recovering, but…
“Now that I think about it, it wasn’t a dream!”
They couldn’t ever do it again after that because the damn artifacts were drooling and being perverted voyeurs.
[#$&#!]
Human, we will help you as a reward for restoring us over and over! Hurry up and try!
[#$&*!]
Wait, not there! Deeper! Push it in deep! No, the angle is wrong!
[$#&$!]
Don’t feel bad because yours is smaller than the Majesty’s! What is important is the skills!
“Damn it #$#&!”
‘This shitty artifacts! Fuck, it’s not like I’m a king from the Joseon era who did it in front of his vassals!’
Anyway, there was someone else whose eyes were sparkling after hearing this news.
‘What? Jaeha sunbae’s girlfriend isn’t pregnant?’
It was Jaeha’s hoobae Yoon Min Hee, who was at the wedding as well.
She had been stuck next to Jaeha during his copycat days until Ju-Heon appeared.
She was also the same girl who was praying every single night for Nina and Jaeha to break up.
‘Okay. That means that I still have a chance!’
She might end up being a perfect partner for Julian to break this relationship apart.
However, at that moment…
Dan mentioned something.
“Well then… That means that Nina is not pregnant but not that the pregnancy test was fake, doesn’t it?”
“!”
Everybody’s eyes opened wide.
‘Now that he mentioned it…! Then whose pregnancy test was it?’
It was at that moment.
“Mmph!”
“!”
The team members quickly looked around. An extremely fragrant barbeque was being delivered into the reception area.
And then…
“Mmph!”
Everybody anxiously turned toward the sound of the noise.
It was Irene!
‘P, perhaps…?!’
Irene awkwardly smiled.
“Ah, umm… I couldn’t say anything because it disappeared from my drawer, but that test is mine…”
The team members gasped. Ju-Heon was sweating bullets again.
“Umm, Captain-nim……?”
“Ahem, sorry. I guess it was me.”
“Captain-nim!”
“N, no, t, this is good. The dream of conception seemed to be for a girl. I’ll happily receive this gift of a daughter.”
“Hey!”
The team members grabbed the back of their necks. A daughter between Ju-Heon and Irene would be the beauty of the century no matter what, but…….
‘Wait, that’s not the issue right now.
This guy, Mr. guaranteed to be number 1 daughter idiot, is going to get a daughter?’
“Wa…hey! No! The dream of conception was wrong. It was just bullshit!”
“Irene, no. You can’t have a daughter in order for us to have world peace!”
But at that moment…
“Who knows? Are you sure it is just one daughter?”
June made a suspicious comment.
“He said that there were lots of carps in the dream of conception.”
“……?!”
As soon as he said that… Seol-A suddenly covered her mouth.
“Mmph!”
‘!’
The team members’ expressions changed. Even Ju-Heon seemed anxious.
“S, Seol-A?”
Seol-A anxiously shook her head.
“N, no! There’s no way…no, this is… mmph!”
“?!”
That wasn’t all.
[Mmph!]
[Mmmmph!]
Artifacts with female appearances started showing the same reactions. Ju-Heon had a mental breakdown while Julian grabbed their Captain by the collar.
“Hey! What the hell have you been doing…?!”
“No, I didn’t do anything. Hey! June!”
“This is great. It looks like it’ll be you up again for part 2, Captain-nim.”
“Hey!”
June ran away while looking at the rope.
The rope was trying so hard to imitate the morning sickness.
Maybe it thought that it would be able to marry Ju-Heon if it did this.
But June lightly smacked the rope and picked it up.
“Not you.”
The rope whined and kept trying because it liked Ju-Heon so much. June smiled bitterly.
‘I guess I have no choice.’
June took out the Cradle’s core. The Cradle (Birth) had been destroyed by the apocalypse artifacts in the past.
Although June only had the power to destroy things, this one was different.
It was an amazing artifact that was capable of giving birth to artifacts with the Majesty. It was the Treasure that all past Majesties had desired.
Even after Birth had its body destroyed, whether it was its instincts as the Cradle or attraction, it always roamed around the Majesty’s side. It was like a ghost or an invisible person.
For hundreds, no, thousands of years…
It did that despite none of the Majesties realizing its existence.
However…
‘Has this child been abandoned?’
The Birth’s conscience that had been floating around coincidentally ended up inside a dead human’s body and the Majesty was finally able to notice it.
But it had to be the former Majesty of all people, the one that June loathed and ran away from.
‘Poor kid…it looks like you cannot talk.’
‘Your majesty.’
‘I will take this child to the palace and raise her myself.’
Birth ended up being raised as the former Majesty’s daughter.
The former Majesty only figured it out right before he died.
He finally realized that this child of his was the Cradle(Birth) that he had desired for so long.
‘Well, she couldn’t use the Cradle’s power because I had the core.’
That had just been her conscience.
And then…
[#$&#*!]
Why won’t it work, why won’t it work?!
June smiled while looking at the rope that was sulking because it couldn’t have morning sickness. How could a rope that doesn’t have a mouth have morning sickness?
More importantly, did it even know the meaning of morning sickness?
‘I have no choice.’
Honestly speaking, he did not want this child to get close to the Majesty.
But June still secretly implanted Birth’s core into the rope.
‘I will give it back to you since it is your power.’
June tapped the rope and a small light seeped into its body.
He prayed that although it died such a pitiful death after being executed by the artifacts in the past, it would be able to protect its master and be by his side until the end.
‘But why a damn rope of all things?’
The rope tilted its head as if it had not noticed the power of the core.
Ju-Heon’s chaotic Dominance spread out at that moment.
“Cut the crap, you shitheads!”
Kyaaaa!]
[Kyaaaa!]
The female artifacts screamed and were sent flying.
[My king! Please stop! Your child inside of me…!]
[Please don’t do this to this humble girl…ugh!]
And then…
“Umm…… Representative-nim? They said that they are ready for part 2, but what…”
Edward, who came with the staff, didn’t know what to do after seeing the human-shaped artifacts desperately faking morning sickness.
The artifacts seemed to have perfectly(?) learned the human culture as they were saying things as if they were spewing fire.
[Kyaaaaaaa! It’s coming! The baby is about to be born!]
[My king! Your chiiiiiiiiild! Mmmmmph!]
[Morning sickness, it’s morning sickness! Mmph! We must get married immediately!]
[What are you talking about? It’s me, mmph! I will be the Majesty’s partneeeeeeeer!]
Well, it was hard to tell whether they were having morning sickness or just on drugs, but…
“Umm, which of them shall I escort to the bride’s prep room……”
“What the fuck do you mean escort?! Throw them all into a fire!”
The veins were visible on Ju-Heon’s neck.
It was truly a peaceful wedding day, as peaceful as the beautiful sky above them.
