The Book Eating Magician Chapter 385:

Chapter 385 - The Marriage of the Century (6)

There were the sounds of insects coming from somewhere .  The noise tickling his ears woke him up . Then Theodore opened his eyes and gazed up at the ceiling .  Beyond the glass ceiling, moonlight shone . Theodore blinked a few times and calculated the time .

‘Not yet midnight . ’

He looked at the desk clock and saw that there were a few more hours until the sky would brighten . He tried to close his eyes again, but once he woke up, all drowsiness was cleared .  Should he drink a glass of water? Theodore was about to raise his body but was forced to stop moving . It was due to the heavy weight on his shoulders .

“Um . . . ”

“ . . . Ung . . . ”

Veronica and Sylvia . . . Even in the darkness, their hair colors shone . Their skin that wasn’t covered by the quilt was white and smooth .  Theodore couldn’t help looking at their sleeping appearances, particularly at the dark marks made by his lips which remained near their necks . As his gaze heated up, Veronica opened her eyes and laughed with a whisper-like voice, “―At any rate, you are very sneaky . ”

Sylvia hadn’t yet woken up, so Theodore replied in a low voice, “Becky, you aren’t sleeping?”

“Huh? No . You are looking at me with such beastly eyes . How can I sleep well knowing this?”

“A beast . . . ” Theodore tried to refute it .

However, Veronica lifted her blanket with a look like she knew everything .  The only lighting present was from the moonlight and the stars . Ordinary people might not be able to see the dim shapes, but fortunately, Theodore wasn’t an ordinary person . Veronica’s curves, not covered by a single piece of clothing, choked him . He was rendered speechless and could only open his mouth .  

Veronica giggled in a teasing manner at the sight . “Look, this is a beast . ”

He couldn’t win . Theodore smiled bitterly and raised his eyebrows . Veronica kissed his collarbone and abs as if to celebrate her victory . Although Theodore wasn’t ticklish, he couldn’t help laughing . He endured the prank for a while before holding her hands and kissing her on the forehead .

“Stop . ”

“Theo is stopping me before I’m satisfied . How stingy . ”

“What if the bed almost completely bends?”

It sounded like a joke, but it really wasn’t . This bed, which never had a single person lay in it before the first day they arrived at the villa, had bent slightly over the course of two months . Despite being a bed made of solid iron and wood, its durability was like a cheap timber bunk .

Veronica’s face flushed red after hearing it . “Oh, no . I didn’t do it all alone, but it is my fault?”

“The number of times . . . Becky is very violent . ”

“Theo!”

Theodore smirked as he took the initiative in this conversation . His words were actually true . Despite being a 7th circle magician, Sylvia was still a human who trained herself . It was difficult to compete with Veronica in everyday life, not just combat . Above all, Veronica had inherited a red dragon’s blood and was famous for being faithful to her ‘desires . ’ In the environment of their honeymoon house, her desires burned more intensely every night .

After exchanging sexually explicit words, the two people looked up at the same sky and were silent .

“ . . . Is it time to go back?”

Theodore didn’t immediately answer Veronica’s question .  However, his silence was a positive reply . It would be a tremendous loss if three tower masters were away for more than two months . Kurt said he would give three months of vacation, but this overloaded the entire kingdom .

“They were the most enjoyable two months of my life . ”

Theodore was feeling burdened when Veronica leaned against his shoulder and said in a bright voice, “We could go anywhere and eat anything . It lasted two months, and Theodore is the best part . ”

“Am I the beast or is it someone else?”

“Omo, you don’t know? I am a dragon . ” Veronica playfully bit his earlobe . It was a charm that was closer to that of a cat than a dragon .  Theodore tickled her chin and laughed .

Veronica stroked her belly and whispered, “Will it happen? Our baby . ”

“I’m not sure . ”

It was hard for Veronica to become pregnant due to her dragon blood . However, the story was different when her partner was Theodore, a transcendent who wasn’t bound by cause and effect . From then on, it was a matter of pure luck .

‘A baby…’ Theodore became a bit nervous at the unexpected thought of the birth of a life that would inherit his blood and surname . He knew it well in his mind, but it was hard thinking about it becoming real .

‘Me… A father . ’

He wondered what color the hair would be . Black? Red? Silver? It would be nice to have a child with their lovely coloring .  A child with small limbs who would call him ‘Father’… His mouth twitched just thinking about it . This vision of the future was broken by Veronica’s words, “Theo . From now on, do you plan to go to that kid?”

“ . . . Yes . ”

There was no separate explanation about who they were talking about . Ellenoa was unable to leave the Northern Great Forest while acting as Mitra’s Saintess, so he had to find her . With two months left until the fall of Wrath, Theodore planned to spend half of the time limit with Ellenoa .  Hearing the expected answer, Veronica pinched him .

“Ouch . ”

“A person with two people needs a third? You are really a bad guy . ”

“I love you, Becky . ”

“It’s fine, you **** . If you are sorry, hold me a bit harder . I won’t forget your arms . . . ” She murmured in a lovable manner .  Theodore gripped her shoulders . Her body came closer without any resistance, and hot heat was transmitted through their touching skin . It was a temptation that couldn’t be endured if they were alone . However, right after that, Theodore’s other shoulder became numb .

“ . . . Sylvia?”

Sylvia looked at him with blurred eyes and punched his shoulder . Unlike her usual gentleness, her eyes were filled with **** and a desire to monopolize . Veronica read her expression and laughed as she threw back the blanket . “Okay, my younger sister wants to do it first?”

“What?”

“This is the last night of our honeymoon . Look at my strength!”

Theodore realized what she meant by this time, but it was already too late . The two beautiful women, Veronica and Sylvia, took the lead and knocked him down .  Just before his resistance was broken, Theodore realized that Armand’s words were right . Other people shouldn’t hear these sounds .

The next day, breakfast at the Miller villa was late . The three people only emerged from the room after the sun was already in the middle of the sky . Unlike Theodore who looked haggard, the faces of the two brides were bright .  Only Armand made a complicated expression when he saw the aftermath . He approached Theodore, who just finished breakfast, and handed him a small bottle .  “Master, have some of this . ”

“ . . . This?”

“It is a popular remedy for fatigue in my industry . The effect isn’t large, but it is good for rapid physical exhaustion and malnutrition . ”

“Sigh, I won’t refuse . ”

It was different from consuming stamina or magic power . This refreshed the mind . . . ? Still, it felt like something was empty when he drank the glass bottle that Armand gave him . After drinking, Theodore found some spare energy and thanked him .

“Thank you, Armand . ”

“It is nothing . It is my duty as your butler . ”

There was no fault in Armand’s behavior as a butler . Kurt hadn’t appointed him to this villa for no reason .   Theodore wondered about Armand’s career and opened his mouth, “There will be no one in this villa for a while . In the meantime, run this villa as you wish . I completely trust you . ”

“Huhu, this old man doesn’t deserve this . ”

“Are you sure? I haven’t met a better employee than Armand . The king’s chamberlain won’t be able to do the work like you do,” Theodore finished their conversation with a hearty compliment .

“ . . . ”

“Please make a villa that I will visit one day with my parents . Please . ”

“ . . . I will do as Master commands . ” Armand Gustain, the former chief servant of the palace, bowed down with a faint smile . The situation seemed to be pretty interesting for an old man .

“Then I’m going . ” Theodore turned to the two people waiting for him and hugged them . Veronica and Sylvia—he liked them a lot before but they were now an indispensable part of his life . A ring shone on the ring finger of his left hand, and their heartbeats made him happy .

“Be well for me . Of course, don’t be any better than me, okay?”

“I’ll be angry if you don’t come back soon . For around half a year . ”

The two of them gave him words of encouragement and complaints as they stepped away from Theodore .  Veronica and Sylvia were returning to Meltor . He regretted the warmth that disappeared from his chest and reached out a hand .

“I’m too scared to do that . Then… 「 Transition . 」” At Theodore’s words, there was a flash of light .

Flash!

While the two people moved to Mana-vil’s central tower, he continued teleporting without a break .

「 Transition, Northern Great Forest . 」

As always, the flash of light blinded the caster . Theodore passed through a gap in space where nothing could be seen, moving thousands of kilometers . If he wanted, he could move to another place inside here or he could stop the transition and go back . However, Theodore was silent and arrived as usual .

“Hmmm . ”

As soon as he arrived, the smell of a dark forest tickled his nose . The smell of life, the scent of the soil and vegetation mixed together, was so rich that it was difficult to sniff out anything else .  Theodore slowly opened his eyes once he arrived .  Some trees were the height of ordinary buildings while others were big enough to be half the height of the magic towers . This was proof that the vitality of the world tree had gone beyond its limit . It was at this moment that . . .

“ . . . Eh?” Theodore’s eyes widened as he saw something .  

There was something that shouldn’t exist here .  He had set his arrival point at the outskirts of the forest and not the center so that the elves wouldn’t be surprised . As such, he wasn’t surprised by the forest that had been rejuvenated after several years . Then why . . . ?

“Mitra?”

Mitra was the embodiment of the world tree .

[Hoing? Deo?]

Her height didn’t even reach his knees, and the bud on her head was like before she had grown up .  Why had she degenerated instead of evolved? Having heard his voice, Mitra smiled widely . [Deoo! Deo came!]

Mitra was still Mitra . Theodore was about to hug her when . . .

[Eh? Deo?]

[Hooing? Really Deooo!]]

[Deo! Deo!]

[No! Give to me!]

One, two, three . . . Soon, the Mitras, that seemed to number in the two digits or maybe over 100, started to flock .  They were cute kids, but more than 100 of them had gathered . It was so terrifying that Theodore was stunned . His magical knowledge was useless as he didn’t know why Mitra had multiplied .  Mitra grabbed his leg, Mitra climbed onto his shoulder, Mitra climbed onto his head before anyone else . . . Theodore was confused by the unfathomable sight .

[Theo! You finally came!] His savior arrived . No, his savior was still Mitra . However, unlike the other Mitras, this Mitra was a teenage girl riding on something .  

Theodore recognized the three wagging tails and exclaimed, “Tres? This is ridiculous!”

The number of tails was the same but the body was bigger . . . ? The series of incomprehensible situations left Theodore feeling lost .
