Chapter 946: Why Are You Smiling Like That?
Ethan slept for three days straight, and during that time, Illumina didn't leave his side.
She dutifully cleaned his body like a loving wife, and also made sure to give Little Ethan lots of love, and kisses.
Despite the fact that he was sleeping deeply, his body was in peak condition, actively reacting to the Mermaid Princess' touch.
Of course, how could Illumina resist such a temptation?
She made sure to indulge herself a bit while making Little Ethan feel extremely good, which might have caused Ethan to sleep a day longer, for she had drained him dry.
Lilith, who was hiding inside Ethan's shadow, didn't come out and simply observed the Mermaid Princess.
She was surprised when Illumina declared that she and Ethan would be marrying after two weeks. But for some reason, she didn't feel bad about it.
Perhaps, she instinctively felt that Illumina had played a major role in Ethan's life. A role big enough to affect his entire fate, which led to the series of circumstances and thus led to the current situation.
Of course, since her Master had tacitly agreed to the marriage, Lilith had no intention of opposing it.
If Ethan had been forced to marry someone, and he truly didn't want to do it, Lilith would stake her life to prevent it from happening.
But since her Master wasn't forced and even seemed to be looking forward to the marriage, the Catkin remained in his shadow and continued to watch over the situation.
When Ethan finally woke up three days later, he felt very refreshed and filled with vitality.
However, when he found out that he slept for three days straight, he still couldn't help but be surprised. It didn't occur to him that he was that exhausted.
"Did anything important happen during the time when I was sleeping?" Ethan asked.
"I don't know," Illumina replied. "I didn't leave this room and remained by your side the entire time. Should we go and look for Father? I'm sure that he's very eager to have a chat with you."
Ethan readily agreed to Illumina's suggestion.
However, before he could even leave the room, he heard a voice from inside his head, which made his body stiffen.
'Ethan, take a good look at the mirror first,' Sebastian commented. 'Your entire body is filled with hickeys right now. What do you think will happen if the people of this kingdom see it?' ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
'You shouldn't have told him,' Ethan's Other Half chuckled. 'I am even looking forward to his reaction when he finds out way too late.'
Ethan glanced at Illumina and noticed that she was looking at him with a mischievous smile on her face.
Just like Ethan's Other Half, she was also looking forward to seeing what would happen next.
Unfortunately, she wouldn't get the chance because Sebastian had already gotten in the way of her plans.
Ethan waved his hand, and a mirror appeared in front of him.
The moment he saw his reflection in the mirror, he couldn't help but feel his cheeks burn in embarrassment.
Almost his entire body was covered with kiss marks, which the Mermaid Princess had lovingly left behind while she was taking good care of him.
Taking a deep breath, Ethan closed his eyes and circulated King Oceanus' Legacy, which strengthened his body's overall strength and performance, including his regeneration abilities.
Less than half a minute later, the kiss marks on his body healed, making Illumina look at him with a pout.
"Do you really want to let my father-in-law see me in such a state?" Ethan inquired with a smile.
"Yes," Illumina replied. "That way, everyone will know that you truly belong to me." "There's no need for that," Ethan replied as he cupped her face, and kissed her forehead. "Let's go meet father-in-law first."
"Okay," Illumina nodded, and reached out to hold Ethan's hand.
She then guided him inside the Royal Palace to look for King Betram.
They found the King seated on his throne, discussing important matters with his ministers.
He had asked the captain of the guards to send a few people to look for the evacuees and inform them that the threat had already been dealt with.
This meant that they could now return to the Kingdom, and once again live their lives in peace.
The moment King Betram saw Ethan and Illumina, a smile appeared on his face.
When he saw that the two were holding hands together, the smile on his face widened considerably.
"Welcome, Your Highness," King Betram said in greeting.
Despite himself being the King of the Kingdom of Saphirus, he still bowed his head toward
the young man, who was currently the Prince of Atlantis.
The lost city of Atlantis was the capital city of the Ocean Races.
It was the symbol of the Sea King's power and authority.
Whoever sat on its throne was the ruler of the Sea, and even Kings like King Betram had to lower their heads to pay respect for the future King of the Sea.
"Greetings, Father-in-law,” Ethan replied with a smile. "Are we perhaps disturbing your duties?"
"Not at all," King Betram casually waved his hand as if downplaying Ethan's words. "We just finished our court session for the day. Isn't that right, everyone?"
""Yes!""
The ministers were more than happy to play along with their King, and while at it, observed
the young man who was holding the hand of their princess.
The two of them standing side by side truly looked like a match made in heaven.
"Father-in-law, is it possible for me to call you Father from now on?" Ethan inquired.
"Of course, you can call me Father," King Betram replied. "We're now a family, so there's no
need to be polite."
Although Illumina and Ethan hadn't married each other yet, their union was already considered a done deal in their eyes, so there was no problem with King Betram's statement.
"Then, Father, did something happen during the past three days that I was sleeping with Illumina?" Ethan asked.
The Ministers and other important officials of the Kingdom looked at the young man with envious gazes.
'He actually made love with our princess for three days straight?! How envious!'
'Damn! He was just like me when I was his age. The only breaks I had was when I needed to
pee.'
'Young people sure are vigorous and full of life. It seems that the Princess will give birth to the future princes and princesses of Atlantis!'
Even King Betram couldn't help but look at Ethan in surprise.
'His performance is indeed worthy as his title of Prince of Atlantis,' King Betram mused. 'It looks like I'll be holding my grandchildren soon enough.'
Illumina, who seemed to have guessed what her father and the ministers were thinking,
couldn't help but blush.
However, she didn't say anything to clear the misunderstanding because it was more
beneficial to her this way.
Ethan, who had no idea what everyone was thinking, looked at King Betram with expectation.
"Father, is something wrong?" Ethan asked. "Why are you smiling like that?"
"I'm just happy," King Betram chuckled. "What was your question again?"
"Did anything important happen during the last three days?" Ethan inquired. "Well, there are many things that happened during those three days," King Betram answered. "For one, we have received many gifts from Royal Families of the different Ocean races. "There are also a few marriage proposals, and I have set aside for you. The various kingdoms have also informed me that they had already dispatched their scouts near the lands of
Midgard.
"We have also created a means for long-distance communications so that we can be informed
right away if they see the Fomorians Army.
"Last but not the least, Lord Leviathan insisted that the wedding be held in the City of
Atlantis. Our people are already working on the venue to make sure that the ceremony will
proceed without fail.
"Lord Leviathan even said that he already found a priest from a place called Lont who will
wed you and my daughter on the day of your wedding."
Ethan glanced at Illumina and gave her hand a light squeeze, making the smile on the
Mermaid Princess' face widen.
"Oh, I almost forgot," King Betram lightly patted his forehead. "Princess Wilhelmina will be
here in two days' time and will stay in the Royal Palace until your wedding day comes. It seems that her father has pulled some strings to convince her to stay here for the time being. "She's a very righteous, kind lady. She also calls me Uncle, and Illumina is a very close friend of hers. Although she participated in the war against us, I know that she and her father were
only forced to do so.
"So, I hope that you can treat her a little better. After all, we should keep all the good things inside the family, right?"
Illumina rolled her eyes at her father for trying to play matchmaker.
Ethan, who only thought that the King was saying this so that he wouldn't punish Princess Wilhelmina for standing against Illumina, nodded in understanding. "Understood, Father," Ethan replied. "I will not make things difficult for her."
"Good!" King Betram smirked as he patted the young man's shoulder. "Since my daughter is going to be the Main Wife, it is only normal for her to keep the harem in line."
"Main wife?" Ethan blinked. "Keep the harem in line?"
"Um, isn't my daughter going to be your Main Wife?"
"... Um, Father, about that-" Ethan explained that he was already married to someone, and had eight other fiances waiting
for him back home.
The corner of King Betram's lips couldn't stop itself from twitching repeatedly after hearing
the young man's explanation.
But after digesting everything that Ethan had said, King Betram thought that the situation
wasn't as bad as he originally thought.
Ethan was only married to one lady, and the others were merely his fiancees. Although his daughter couldn't become the Main Wife, she would still be his second, which
was something that he could still accept. Meanwhile, somewhere in Brynhildr Academy...
Lily felt a bit dizzy as she rose from the bed.
She was also feeling nauseous, but not to the point that she would start vomiting.
"Am I sick?" Lily thought as she pressed her hand on her neck before shifting it on her
forehead. "I don't have any fever, but I don't feel well. Should I skip classes today and just rest for the time being?"
The young lady weighed his choices before making up her mind.
She would first ask the maid of their Manor to go to the Kitchens of the Academy and bring her anything light like a soup, so that she could eat without being nauseated.
Lily didn't feel like going to her classes for today because she thought that she might have overexerted herself in yesterday's training session with Nicole.
'She has grown quite powerful as of late,' Lily thought after remembering her battle against
the pink-haired beauty. 'But she felt... different.'
However, before she could think more about the spar they had yesterday, she felt like puking, so she hurriedly went to the bathroom and did what she needed to do to feel better.
