Chapter 206 – Episode 204. If – When We Woke Up, We Became Two! (Complete)
“You really speak well.”
Kreuz laughed.
I wondered when he became so good at talking, but I also thought that this guy was good at talking from the beginning.
There was not enough justification to oppose by saying that there was no precedent.
In the Einhafen Empire, which has an overwhelmingly short history, Kreuz is the first emperor, and if Leopold becomes emperor, he becomes the second emperor. So, whatever it was, it was just a precedent because Creutz had never been like that, and there was no particular reason to oppose it.
“So, do you want to welcome both of them?”
“Even to say that it is chastity would be a bit of a misnomer. You can just call her Mrs. Isn’t it?”
“Madam. Aren’t wives also in order?”
Creutz, deep down, he meant to say just do it. However, there was something unsatisfying about allowing it so lightly.
It was something that the current emperor, Kreuz, had never been able to do. To have two such beautiful wives, and to think that they are real sons.
It was also the kind of feeling that I have to express that my stomach hurts.
“Where is the order for Mrs. Both of them are crown princesses, and will become empresses in the distant future, and they are like companions by my side.”
“There is no order for wives. Astrid and Asti.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
As Leopold said, Astrid and Asti, who had been listening quietly by the side, responded to Creutz’s call with a gentle bow of their heads. Creutz was satisfied with the world’s modest appearance, and was also satisfied.
“Do you all agree with what Leopold is saying?”
“Yes, we all had a good talk, and we agreed in doing so. If the Crown Prince wants to do it, and His Majesty the Emperor allows it, I will comply.”
“Is that so? If not, Wolfgang.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“No, Wolfgang. Didn’t you call him Grand Duke of Mitterien?”
“… Okay.”
“What are you up to? She suddenly became a sister, but in any case, aren’t they the daughters you raised, like gold or jade? We are both going to marry Leopold, will there be any problem?”
Is there any problem
In fact, Astrid is like that, so is Asti, and they are both Wolfgang’s daughters, although she suddenly became sisters.
If Leopold had agreed to accept one as his wife and the other as his concubine, Wolfgang would not have stayed silent either.
To drive a nail into one heart while enjoying the luxury of accepting her sister as her wife at the same time was something that I could never condone as a father-in-law.
But Leopold didn’t do that, and just looking at what he’s saying to his father, Kreuz, doesn’t he speak well with a lot of logic.
That was enough, thought Wolfgang.
“Is there any problem? Both honest… I want to take you as my wife. As a father, I have no reason to oppose this.”
“Is it.”
Kreuz organized his thoughts in his head.
There is no reason to oppose it anyway, so it should be allowed in a good way.
“I get it. Do it. Regarding the crown prince, accept both Astrid von Mitterien and Asti von Mitterien as wives, regardless of whether they are concubines or concubines.
“I will follow your orders!”
Leopold’s face bloomed.
And the faces of Astrid and Asti were also in full bloom.
*
There was momentary confusion in the empire.
When it was announced that Astrid, the daughter of the Grand Duchess of Mitterien, who was known to be her only daughter, actually had a twin sister.
There was obviously confusion at that time, and there was great confusion even among the nobles.
The only one was that she had been taking care of herself because of her poor health, and the excuse that she was enjoying the Northern Territory because of her health was something that could be eaten in moderation.
However, after arguing, the Grand Duchess of Mitterien wasn’t such a formidable family, and since Ashley would soon become the in-law of the Grand Duchess of Autrien in the south, his prestige would be even stronger, so it was better to just bury him.
In addition, the fact that the two sisters were to marry Leopold, which continued from there, shook the capital with even greater shock.
The romance and envy of many men.
Leopold, a rare lucky man who married beautiful sisters at the same time.
However, Leopold was just as good as him, so it was understandable—- that’s how it went.
“I could just keep it simple.”
Asti couldn’t help but find her wedding a burden. She has a wedding ceremony, but after that, she says that she will even have a parade using a carriage, but the parade is really burdensome now that Sandal is approaching.
“Then I can just do it. Isn’t that right?”
“What?”
Asti opened her ax eye and glared at Astrid.
No matter how otherwise, she canceled the parade itself. To do it together, what kind of nonsense is this?
“Not doing it at all would be a way, but Asti, it would be better to have a parade for the people. Don’t stand instead, Asti prepares a place to sit.”
It was common knowledge that it was bad for a pregnant woman with her new moon approaching.
However, if Asti, who is not just a bride but also the crown princess, does not perform her parade immediately after her wedding, she will not look very good in the eyes of the people.
“… I’ll do it. You can do it. So much.”
No matter what, it is a body with the protection of the stars.
It shouldn’t be that much of a problem.
Above all, it was unacceptable to Asti to endure such low-level provocations from Astrid.
The prince’s marriage.
And the marriage partner is the twin daughters of the Grand Duchess of Mitterien.
The wedding of these three turned the empire upside down.
Even though the wedding ceremony itself was held privately, with only the nobles present, it was already entering into a festive atmosphere with the sound of fireworks fired continuously from the imperial castle.
Bars and restaurants provided free unlimited drinks and food for three days immediately after the wedding.
The cost was to be fully compensated by the imperial family later, so it was literally an out of time part, and the wedding ended in great success with people from all over the country forming a crowd.
And finally, the moment when the carriage carrying the crown prince and his wife left the imperial castle and started to circle the parade was the climax of the festival.
A carriage appeared in the midst of the crowd.
With the already deployed troops controlling the onlookers, the wizards dispatched from the Mage Tower were also hiding out of sight and spreading a force field to check each one for any suspicious signs.
Completely secured safety.
Among them, along the safety line that divided the crowds and the road exposed between the safety lines, Leopold, the crown prince, and Astrid and Asti, who sat on either side of him, smiled brightly and waved their hands to greet the people.
Marriage.
It really felt like coming back from a long way.
A lot of things happened, and there was a confusing situation that suddenly became two, but it was really nice to have such a peaceful ending.
‘I didn’t know it would turn out like this… ’
Asti waved his hand and smiled.
Her endless admiration, congratulations, and joy for her now crown princess came out without a trace in the smiles of those cheering people who looked up at her.
It was a good day.
It was also a happy day.
Asti thought that such happy days would continue in the future.
And at that moment-
An anguish came.
It was at that moment that Asti’s normally white face turned even whiter.
Clinging to her huge, swollen belly, Asti hardened her smile into her face.
And Astrid was the first to notice that sign.
“Asti, Asti! Your Highness, Asti is strange!”
Only then did Leopold realize that Asti’s condition was strange.
Her face was white, and even her hands on her stomach were pale and trembling.
As she was sitting in her seat, something from her liquid flowed out and dripped down like water droplets on her.
“Asti, no way… !”
A fact popped into Leopold and Astrid’s minds.
It is said that the birth month is approaching, but premature birth can happen at any time.
Leopold immediately called the attendant who was waiting on the platform below him.
“Asti, I will go back to the imperial palace right now, so just be patient!”
As soon as he saw the trembling Asti, Leopold quickly took off her coat.
The robe, which was supposed to shine beautifully as a new groom’s wedding dress, was used to cover Asti’s body and was crumpled and soaked in water, but Leopold didn’t care about that.
“Asti, be patient! What are you doing, is the return palace still far away?!”
In the meantime, Asti shuddered at the intense pain in her stomach, but she couldn’t even answer.
In the meantime, the carriage, which had her horse reversed and tied, rode the way to the return palace, and the parade did not come after the scheduled time, leaving the people who had been waiting endlessly to wonder.

“Still, if you do this, you can say that she gave birth smoothly.”
“Let’s see how you feel when you give birth, really.”
Astrid, who came to visit Asti with a Parisian complexion, said that he wouldn’t be like that and boasted with his shoulders straight.
She ruined the parade, but in fact she didn’t want to resent it, and above all, Asti’s daughter was really pretty. Although she is Astrid who doesn’t like children very much, the daughter who is my blood relative was really pretty.
“Is she a niece or just a daughter… That is the problem.”
In terms of her degree, she is a niece. Astrid didn’t tell Asti, she admitted that Asti was her older sister, so she was a sister anyway. She is the daughter of her sister, so she is her niece, but she is a sister and her husband is the same, so whether she should be just a daughter.
It didn’t matter anyway.
Her first daughter was named Lesti after Leopold and Asti.
Resti von Einhafen.
The parade was canceled and the atmosphere of the wedding somewhat subsided, but even before the excitement subsided, her birth and the birth of her princess were enough to stir up the empire again.
Again, each bar and restaurant was closed and free food and drinks were provided for three days, and thanks to that, the internal affairs of the imperial palace screamed, but that was probably a good thing for Leopold, Asti, and Astrid.
“Astrid was there too.”
Leopold, who had gone to see his daughter, had a strawberry cake in his hand.
She is Asti, who especially likes cakes, and she likes strawberries, so she eats them often. Leopold seems to have bought strawberry cakes today too.
“They said it would be sweet with lots of condensed milk. Astrid is here too, so let’s go with her.”
“It’s really embarrassing to have a wife who treats you like this just because she gave birth to a child.”
At Astrid’s words, Asti twitched her eyebrows again.
Well, I thought he knew he wouldn’t have children. She is Astida, who promises to see her again and again.
“Astrid, you come along too. It tasted good.”
“Is it so. I also… “
Leopold put the cut cake on a plate and put it in front of Asti, and also put it in front of Astrid.
A sweet scent wafted from the cake sprinkled with condensed milk, and Astrid—
“Oops.”
Asti’s and Leopold’s eyes turned to that retching sound.
And Asti, who was well aware of the meaning of that retching, smiled in full bloom.
It also means that the time has come to give back as much as you have received.
