It didnt take long to return to Troy City from Duargana. I also returned as fast as I could. I didnt inform my citizens of my return, but when I entered the city, people gradually rushed to the side of the streets to toss flowers at and loudly welco ho.
They were the reason I had to slow down. My initial plan was to sprint straight to the palace of Troy City, but it wasnt possible. The road was congested, so I had to lead my guards and get the people to slowly make way as we headed toward the palace. I used to dream of the scene where everybody would be welcoming and treating as a hero, but I unexpectedly got really annoyed due to the timing.
People crowded around as though I was a hero. They showered with flowers and applauses, but I just want to return ho to see my wife.
Did I lose my ambition? I didnt care even if I did. I just wanted to see Nier. I hadnt seen her in a long ti, but I was sure shes still well. Nier had Mommy Elizabeth with her. Freya may have left, but Troy City was my base. Nobody would approach Nier with ulterior motives in Troy City.
Lunas situation wouldnt befall Nier, either. She was nurturing herself and her child. I needed to head back and take care of her before I could sort out the North with peace of mind.
Id only be able to figure out what I needed to do once I returned to the North. I didnt know what thods Freya had or what she was doing. I hope that she hadnt restrained herself waiting for my orders. Freya shouldve been able to sort out lots of things in the North. She was my sister who I trusted. She was also my sister to the rest of the world, so she could give out orders. Freya was very astute. If she could solve the weather problem before I returned, Id be so elated Id hug and kiss her.
Ah, Your Majesty, welco back! Congratulations on your victory!
Your Majesty!! Congratulations on your victory!!
Your Majesty! It is great that you are back!
The people moving about in the palace saluted once I entered the palace. I hastily nodded as I hurried to my room.
This is the room Nier is currently staying in. If shes not here, then she should be in the flower garden I think? Nier wont leave this palace. Shes definitely in the palace.
I took in a deep breath before I opened the door. It was silent inside. The interior of the room was no different to how it was when I left. Everything was left where I put it before I departed. There was a curtain hanging on top of the bed. Behind the curtains was Nier sleeping tranquilly, yet beautifully.
The sunshine after noon shined onto Niers body, making her look as if she had the bright wings of an angel. I treaded carefully, afraid that I would disturb the tranquillity and beauty of the scene. Just as I was about to climb into bed, Nier suddenly opened her eyes to look at .
Sorry, did I wake you?
I smiled.
Nier looked at . She then rubbed her eyes before sitting up. She threw an arm around to pull in and give a deep kiss without saying a word. I sat down to the side and held Nier in my arms. I breathed in her familiar and nostalgic scent.
Nier hasnt changed. Shes still the sa. Nier is still my Nier. Shes in my arms right now. Shes right in front of . Im kissing her. Im kissing my wife.
I responded to Nier. She wildly kissed , throwing her body at mine as if her body lded into mine.
I hugged her and kissed her. Nier leaned on , and then forced down onto the bed before releasing . She looked at with her long black hair hanging down onto my face. She panted and without saying a word, kissed again. It seed as though she thought Id run off if I sat up, so she passionately kissed again and again and again, attempting to rip my tongue off or sothing.
Her tears fell pit pat onto my face. I clasped her face. She stopped lowering her head and looked at with a dumbfounded look. Her tears dripped from her eyes onto my face, so even dripping into my eyes. We looked at each other. I softly asked, Nier, what are you crying for?
Nier pressed her hands on my face and wiped her tears. She softly giggled. Because I miss you so much Dear I really miss you so much I wanted to cry as soon as I saw you. You know I really want to cry right now. You wont leave anymore, right? You definitely wont leave anymore, right?!
I clasped her face and seriously told her, No, Nier, Ill still be leaving, but well be leaving together this ti. Nier, this ti, well
Go to the North?
Nier cut off before I could finish. With a smile, she asked, Were going to the North, right? I knew it. Freya wouldnt have asked to co to the North without your approval. Youre having go there because I can live there in peace, right?!
I froze; then, I shook my head. No, I didnt. I was at Duargana the entire ti. Lucia is facing a problem, so I was taking care of her at her side the entire ti. I havent been in the North. That was Freyas idea, not mine Im not handling anything in the North at the mont, so I wouldnt have you go there.
What? Nier paused. She displayed puzzlent. Why did Freya write a letter telling to prepare to head to the North, then?
Freya wont harm you. Never. She must have her own plans to ask you to co to the North. That ans that Freya has a thod to make the North inhabitable.
I hugged Nier. Of course, I want to take you to the North. I wanted to take you to the North even before Freyas letter arrived. The North might still be freezing. Its not as comfortable as Troy City up there. Nier, do you want to stay at Troy City, or do you want to co with to a place where everything is unknown?
Nier looked at . She clasped my face. Without pausing to think for a mont, she replied, I want to go to the North together with you, of course. Youre my husband, and Im your wife. I will definitely follow you. Ill follow you forward even if the road ahead is hell. It doesnt matter where I go as long as youre by my side!
Lets get ready, then, Nier. I will go with you to the North. Troy City is just a city, but you will be the Queen of a land in the North. I will definitely let you enjoy what Mommy Elizabeth gets to enjoy! Nier, co with to the North!
