203. Our honeymoon (1)
During the honeymoon, Hesia decided to visit Atlon after a long time. It was like going back to the beginning after following me out of Atlon the first time.
‘Can I really go alone?’
To that question, Hessia nodded.
‘Of course! Ethan. Even if I look like this, I’m a dragon.’
Most wizards and thieves couldn’t even compete with Hessia.
Even so, he put all the knights, including the Colossus and Rien, in the shadow of Hessia.
‘You can’t chase someone you don’t know.’
‘I’m not even a child… . Okay. Have fun.’
Hessia now looked like a fifteen-year-old girl. I spent more time with my friends than with my dad. It was a bit bittersweet, but I decided to think of it as a process of growing up.
In her heart, Hessia wanted to join her in the honeymoon, but because Hessia was going to Atlon, she was escorted by the Royal Guard from South Barn and boarded a carriage heading for Eiras.
Maybe I missed it out of sight.
Anyway, our honeymoon destination was the southern island of the Empire.
It was Tia who first suggested that we go on a trip to the southern island of the Empire. At the word south island, I thought of Arbis Island.
‘Hey Tia, what if it’s a southern island? Are you talking about Arbis Island?’
Obviously, Arbis Island was a good place as a tourist destination. There were tropical waters, emerald seas, and historical sites.
‘No, it’s a better place. There is an island of the Hergé family in the southern sea. It’s a bit smaller than Arbis Island, but everyone will like it.’
In other words, one island was a resort for the Hergé family.
It is said that this time, he handed over an island his father owned to Tia.
as a wedding gift.
When I heard that story, I was horrified. You really give an island as a gift.
As expected, it was a huge gift worthy of the Empire’s greatest grand prize party.
We moved to South Barn under the escort of the Imperial Guard. After that, we headed to the island on a ship arranged by Tia.
The island Tia mentioned was not uninhabited, it was a place where a small number of natives lived, and it was usually operated as a resort in the upper part of Erze.
Of course, Tia said that for the week leading up to the honeymoon, the tourist spots were closed and the island was left empty just for us.
“By the way, what is the name of the island?”
To Sepia’s question, Tia smiled and confidently answered.
“I decided to call the island ‘Honeymoon Island’.”
Everyone, including Sepia, blinked at those words. I forgot. Tia’s naming sense is the worst.
It was Tia who had given the names Undi, Dine, and Neun to the three lower water spirits. I named the wind spirit Silbert, a combination of sylph and albert.
In that sense, Honeymoon + Island was also a name that felt Tia’s naming sense… .
“Honeymoon Island… ?”
“yes! When I inherited it from my father, I arbitrarily changed the name of the island. But why are all the faces like that? It was named to commemorate our honeymoon… .”
Tia tilted her head as if something was wrong. Vivian and Tesha were struggling to hold back their laughter.
not.
Since this is a ‘honeymoon + island’, it feels strange, but if you just say ‘honeymoon’, there is nothing strange.
“Tiaya, don’t name your baby once you have it.”
Sepia put her hand on Tia’s shoulder.
“Ethan, is it strange?”
“uh… . no! Do you think you’re okay?”
I glanced at Sylvia for help. Sylvia immediately nodded and answered.
“Tia, what is the original name of the island?”
“The original name of the island is Irpis.”
No matter how I think about it, the name Irpis sounds better than Honeymoon Island… .
anyway.
The anchor was raised and the ship began to sail. The huge ship made its way quickly through the calm waves.
“Ah, if it’s a real pear, I hate it.”
And within three minutes of departure, Sepia was exhausted.
“It’s a shame.”
“What is it, sorry. Tia?”
“If I had known Sepia would be so seasick, I would have left it at the port.”
Sepia waved her hand as if she had no energy to answer.
“Don’t talk to me because I don’t have the energy to argue. I will pass out.”
Soon, Sepia hurriedly walked onto the sunbed prepared on the deck and stretched out. And soon after, Sylvia also frowned.
“Dana… . Won’t you give me some support… . That motion sickness… .”
Is it because it’s not a single body? Sylvia was also suffering from seasickness.
“Dana… , how long will it take to arrive?”
“They say it will take about 20 minutes.”
“I need to sit down and rest for a while… . I’m sorry.”
I carried Sylvia to the sunbed and put her next to Sepia. So Sepia and Sylvia lay down on the sunbed wearing their wedding dresses.
Tia seems to be fine, even to the point of arguing with Sepia… .
I turned to Tesha and Vivian.
“How is Tesha?”
“Me? I’m fine.”
Tesha didn’t seem to understand why the two of them were sick. After all, Tesha has a good sense of balance.
It was Tesya who ran on the arm of the Minotaur and stabbed her with a sharp sword in a vital place. As a training exercise, I used to do 3 somersaults and even land.
I wasn’t worried about Vivian because she doesn’t tend to get motion sickness.
“How is Vivian?”
“Hey, that Ethan brother… . I’m feeling a bit unwell today… . Can’t you help me too?”
“Are you feeling unwell?”
Reluctantly, Vivian nodded. I helped Vivian and headed for the sunbed. After all, it is best to lie down when motion sickness occurs.
“I think it would be better if I got some fresh air… , yo. this.”
“You want to get some fresh air?”
“yes… . Can you accompany me to the front of the deck?”
Then, a small laugh was heard from behind.
I turned around to see Tia covering her mouth with her hand and laughing.
“Why are you laughing… , Tia?”
“Sometimes I don’t know if Ethan is dull or quick-witted.”
At those words, Vivian was taken aback.
Only then did I realize that Vivian was acting. Acting to get attention by naturally inducing skinship.
“sister! It’s too much. You can just pretend you don’t know… .”
“Oh, sorry… . But it’s kind of disgusting that you treat your spouse with lies.”
Tesha smiled as she saw us like that.
“Stop doing this, shall we all go to the deck and get some fresh air while looking at the sea?”
Leaving Sepia and Sylvia who collapsed from exhaustion at Tesha’s proposal, everyone headed to the front of the deck.
Seagulls were flying across the deck. They seemed to have built a nest on a nearby island.
Looking at the horizon stretching far into the blue sky, I thought it would be nice to see Sepia and Sylvia together.
Even while watching the sea, Vivian clung to my arm and laughed heheh.
“Is it that good? Vivian?”
Vivian nodded at Tia’s question.
“Of course it is good. I’m still progressing slower than my sisters, so even at times like this, I want to arm in arm with Ethan oppa… .”
Tia nodded her head as if she understood.
“Well, Vivian and Tesya haven’t slept with Ethan yet, have they?”
At those words, both Vivian and Tesha turned their heads for no reason. Tia didn’t miss the opportunity to tease the two of them.
“Ethan is the best at night. I will do anything you ask.”
Tia grinned and whispered in Tesha’s ear. Unfortunately, Tia’s voice was all audible to me, who had developed hearing through super-intuition.
I suddenly remembered the night I spent with Tia. At that time, Tia got a cramp at the end and massaged her leg… .
“Don’t miss it and ask them to do everything you want to do.”
Tesha’s eyes twinkled at those words.
“I will do everything you ask me to do… ?”
“sure. Tesha. He asked me to spank his butt… , leash if you want… .”
There I covered Vivian’s ears.
Is it because I have a strong image of being the maknae among my older sisters? Vivian knew everything, but I felt like I had to protect her.
“iced coffee… . Ethan oppa, please join me too… . I’m an adult too… .”
“no. Good Vivian doesn’t listen to things like that.”
I forgot that Tia’s hobby is reading novels like that.
Even when I met Tia for the first time outside of the academy, Tia was choosing vulgar language… . Was the book I was going to buy at that time ‘The Hero’s Secret’?
“Hey, Tia, but why did you name it Honeymoon Island?”
I thought I should change the topic, so I asked about the origin of the name of the island.
“Well… . Isn’t it suitable?”
I pondered for a moment.
A few decades later, in history textbooks or in my autobiography, ‘Ethan who caught the devil got married after that. And Ethan’s honeymoon destination was Honeymoon Island.’
Oh, suddenly it seems that it will never happen.
“As expected, I think the original name would be good… .”
No matter how much I thought about it, it seemed like it would be better to be listed as ‘Edan’s honeymoon destination was Irpis’.
“like. Then let’s go back to Irpis. What.”
“Yeah, that would be nice.”
“Oh, and… . In the future, this island will be closed as a tourist destination.”
Closing as a tourist destination?
I suddenly wondered why. Perhaps realizing that I was puzzled, Tia added the reason in a calm tone.
“Yeah… . It’s a place where memories of our honeymoon with Ethan will be stored… . I don’t like it when other people step in. If rumors spread that the country-savior hero Ethan came to honeymoon, a lot of people would come, right? I want this place to be a place full of our own memories.”
People flock to this place because of me?
I hadn’t even thought of that. I was in the process of realizing that I had become a celebrity one by one.
“So… . From now on, we will all come here to play together every summer.”
Tia, who is rational and well-calculated, said so much, I thought that Tia had changed a lot since the first time we met.
“yes! OK.”
Tia smiled at my answer.
“Ah, Ethan’s older brother and older sisters! I can see the island now.”
As Vivian pointed out, we moved our gaze. There was an island where we would be staying for the next week.
Irpis Island, which harmonized with the emerald sea and the cold blue sky like ice, was like a paradise on earth.
Under the warm sunlight, the palm trees swayed healthily in the wind.
As Tia said, it was a really beautiful island.
