2.
There are times in life when you receive gifts by chance.
“Lady of the Golden Silk. “I have something important to tell you.”
“Hey. It’s been a while since my butler called me [Lady of the Golden Silk] instead of [Miss]. Every time, something sinister happened. “Let me try to deduce what happened again.”
The Lady of the Golden Silk slowly lifted her teacup.
A truly elegant appearance.
“Do I have a secret half-sister?”
“no.”
“indeed. In fact, my mother was actually the illegitimate child of His Majesty the previous emperor, so do I also have some imperial blood? So, His Royal Highness and I are in an unending love?”
“no.”
“Or do I have a hidden half-sister and a hidden bloodline, so I have the talent to be chosen as the main character in a crazy story?”
“no.”
“Then what is it, you bastard?”
“I’m getting married soon.”
“Oh my. It’s marriage. It’s marriage. marriage—.”
Pooh wow!
The Lady of the Golden Silk sprayed the tea she was drinking. Mainly on my face.
I couldn’t find any trace of elegance.
“marriage?!”
“yes.”
“Gyeolhoooooon?!”
“That’s right.”
“If it’s a joke, it’s too base a joke, Butler! Do you want to get spanked by me after such a long time?!”
“It’s not a joke.”
I wiped my face with a handkerchief.
“There’s no way you could joke about something like this, right? I’m really going to get married. Trying to dry it doesn’t help. “We have already scheduled our wedding date for a month later.”
“S-what about the opponent?”
“I am the Lady of the Duke of the Silver Lily.”
“Oh, what is it? After all, it was Gura.”
The Lady of the Golden Silk sighed.
A relieved face. It was an expression that made him think that even if the world were destroyed, there was no chance that Raviel and I would get married. Well, that’s a normal reaction.
“Do you think it’s a lie?”
“yes. I think it’s not just bullshit, it’s bullshit. If you’re trying to deceive me, please create a more believable plot. “I give you a failing grade for creativity.”
“If it’s true, will you allow me to marry you?”
“Ahaha. Yes, yes. I’ll allow you as much as you want. butler. If it’s real. Rather, it would be a great benefit for me personally to have my servant enter into a marriage with the most noble family in the empire, right? “My family’s reputation is to jump six stairs in one go?”
“Please put your seal here.”
“huh?”
I handed out the documents I had prepared in advance.
“What is this, deacon?”
“This is a document that states that if I marry Raviel Ivansia, I will allow this marriage as the original owner. “I will escape from the shadow of the Lady of the Golden Silk and become the wife of the Ivansia family.”
“Phew!”
The Lady of the Golden Silk held her belly button and laughed.
“This, the wife of the Ivansia family… Puku sip! Something, that. joke? Gag? Are you saying that our butler is called [Duchess Ivansia]? It’s so much fun just imagining it. “It would be more likely for me to become the empress of the empire.”
The Lady of the Golden Silk, who was laughing like that, smiled a different smile.
“Well, it will happen this time.”
hmm.
I recalled the summary I read before entering this apocalypse.
‘Second Yeoju.’
At this point, I thought of many things, such as the identity of the Lady of the Golden Silk, which I could roughly guess, and the Heretic Questioner who had not yet possessed her.
And I buried it all for a moment and said:
“Could you please stamp it?”
The Lady of the Golden Silk held her stomach again and laughed.
“Oh, willingly. This adds to the butler’s dark history. “As a generous owner, I can’t turn away this fun experience.”
“thank you. Then, I will call the person who will become my husband tomorrow.”
“Yes. yes. Duchess Ivansia. The second brightest moon in the Empire. Please have fun playing with your delusional husband.”
next day.
I stood in front of the Lady of the Golden Silk with Raviel.
“I’ve been summoned. miss.”
“…….”
The Lady of the Golden Silk’s mouth opened wide.
“I know you already know, but I’ll say hello again.”
Raviel said as she fanned herself.
“I am Raviel Ivansia, the legitimate daughter and heir of the Ivansia duchy. She was bestowed the title of Silver Lily by His Majesty the Emperor.”

“uh? ah. Yes, of course I know. Princess… … ?”
“This time, fortunately, I have entered into a marriage engagement with your butler. The deacon is a body whose identity is tied to you. If you didn’t give permission, the marriage would become difficult, but you willingly gave permission. thanks.”
“yes… … ?”
“This is a wedding invitation.”
Raviel flicked the letter. The border was decorated with silver thread. At the very center of the letter was a red wax seal with the ducal family’s seal. The Lady of the Golden Silk accepted the letter with a puzzled expression.
“Rejoice. You are the first person to receive a wedding invitation. I hope you consider it a great honor. Well, this is a small gift to you who have taken care of the butler until now.”
“Ji, butler… … ? Now this is a joke… … ?”
“That’s rude. From today, this man is not your butler, but my fiancé. I believe that you will not think that the Ivansia family’s status is lower than that of your baron. “From now on, please treat my fiancé with courtesy.”
“Go, go, duke… Buyin… … ?”
The Lady of the Golden Silk looked at me with a face that was lost in the world. My gaze was desperate. Her eyes were now begging him to deny the title she had put into her mouth.
I bowed politely.
“It was truly an honor to serve you, young lady.”
“…….”
“But from now on, please call me ma’am. “Respectfully.”
“………….”
“Then shall we go? “Raviel.”
“Huh. “I told him to call me my wife in front of others.”
“Ah, sorry. Sir. I’m not familiar with the name yet… .”
“My wife is truly miserable. “I love you, including that.”
“i love you.”
“love.”
We left side by side.
After a while. A faint scream was heard from behind.
“What is this?!”
Spring when magnolias are withering.
The wedding was approaching.
3.
My lover, Raviel Ivansia, is a person who can do anything.
When Raviel says she will get married within a month, the wedding really will take place within a month.
“I imprisoned my father in the villa.”
Raviel spoke calmly and without any hesitation.
“There are still some in my family who follow my father, but they are only a small number. It is at a level that can be ignored. Since I have negotiated with the Emperor and been officially recognized as the successor, I am already the Duke of Ivansia. “Now you will be called the Duke of the Silver Lily rather than the Lady of the Silver Lily.”
“Uh… .”
Suddenly, my father-in-law was imprisoned.
‘Is it okay to do this?’
As I was feeling a deep sense of immorality toward my father-in-law whom I had never met, Raviel looked at me.
“Now you are Duke Ivansia’s fiancé in name and reality. “She became the mistress of a family with the highest status after the imperial family.”
“…….”
“Except for His Majesty the Emperor, the Empress, and the Prince, there is no one to whom you must bow first. At least not in this empire. All citizens of the empire, regardless of status, must bow to you. “In a place where the imperial family does not reside, you will receive the most honorable treatment.”
Raviel was serious.
It was only after hearing her words that I realized that [something very big] was happening.
Until now, I had approached the wedding solely out of love for Raviel. That love was sweet. It was romantic. But to Raviel, marriage was something more than romance.
I opened my mouth, having a premonition of the enormous reality of something.
“Still, I’m just a commoner… .”
“Of course, the socialites will be whispering. Confucius. For you, origin is like the skirt of an uncomfortable dress, and it will follow you wherever you go. But we have done everything we can.”
action.
“What are the measures?”
“You will first register as the adopted son of the Imperial Chamberlain.”
Raviel handed me a document.
“The current Chamberlain is a senior figure who has served the imperial family for a long time. He was given the rank of nobleman, and his reputation was high due to his clean private life. First of all, he has no children. “You will become the adopted son of this old chamberlain and raise his status once again.”
oh my god.
No, really, oh my god.
“Well, is that okay?”
“That’s okay. “If I wish.”
Even now, Raviel was processing a mountain of documents. Sssssseu! Raviel’s quill was constantly moving. It was difficult for me to guess what those documents were and what kind of political impact they would cause.
“All troublesome procedures were omitted. Just sign that document. Then, you will be recognized as the adopted son of the Imperial Chamberlain.”
“…….”
Yes.
Marriage was real.
My father-in-law, whom I had never met, was imprisoned. As expected, I became the adopted child of someone I had never met. Something was happening in a place I didn’t know about.
As I was signing the adoption papers, I realized this, albeit belatedly.
[Becoming Duke Ivansia’s husband] is such an incredible task.
This was clearly proven in the scene I encountered a few days later.
“Greetings to the person who will become the second brightest moon in the Empire.”
Just walking around the academy for a moment, young ladies and young people recognized me and bowed their knees. He was extremely polite. Before we knew it, the rumor had spread to the Academy.
“I salute the hostess of Ivansia.”
“ah. okay… .”
“Congratulations on your engagement. May Ivansia have eternal glory.”
“Thank you.”
As soon as I walked nearby, the ladies and the ladies stopped chatting. I stopped what I was doing. And he remained politely silent until I passed. The academy’s guards and knights also saluted politely when they saw me.
There were no exceptions.
Even the teachers at the academy bowed as if it was natural.
“…….”
When ranked 3rd in the top. Even when you suddenly become a popular star and are surrounded by crowds… I’ve never felt like I do now.
‘This is class.’
Not a popular star. I’m not a celebrity. They didn’t surround me and they didn’t raise their smartphones to take pictures of my face.
Just kneel down.
‘… … It’s awesome.’
Maybe people only do that in front of me.
As soon as I disappear, there will be all kinds of dirty rumors and dirty gossip about my humble origins and Raviel’s unexpected engagement to the crown prince.
But no one dared whisper in front of me.
“Hi!”
Clink!
One day, a servant from the academy broke a water bottle while moving it. I was just passing by nearby. I was about to say [Are you okay?] without thinking, but at that moment, the six servants around me knelt down at once.
“So, I’m sorry!”
“I have committed a mortal sin!”
“please. It was a foolish mistake, so please forgive me… !”
I was speechless.
I wasn’t dumbfounded for any other reason.
They are asking for my forgiveness as if it is natural. The fact that I had the right to [forgive] them paralyzed my thinking.
In other words, it was my freedom to punish them rather than forgive them.
“…….”
It’s crazy.
This was crazy.
-what’s the matter? It’s natural to do this.
Bae Hu-ryeong said while swimming in the air.
-It’s amazing that you, the tower, are nominally without status or class. You didn’t know, right? If you go up to the 50th floor, you will realize that most towers are class societies.
Did you say that from the 50th floor onwards, you start competing with other world towers in earnest?
Bae Hu-ryeong picked his ear with his little finger and then blew.
-The Ivanshian family that your husband belongs to is the second most powerful family here after the imperial family. Then, zombie, you’ve become a queen.
Queen.
-Congratulations on becoming Cinderella. boy.
The servants were lying face down in the hallway, their shoulders shaking.
Suddenly, what Raviel said came to mind.
『All citizens of the empire must bless you.』
『My world and my country should recognize my marriage.』
That’s what it meant.
In just a few days, I reached the top of the pyramid.
He has risen to the pinnacle of power.
‘this… ‘It’s Raviel’s world.’
then.
‘How should I behave?’
Not just as [Kim Gongja].
Not as a hunter with the nickname [Death King].
As the [spouse] of the most noble nobleman in this country.
“…….”
I bent down.
And I picked up the fragments of the broken water bottle.
He quietly placed a fragment in the palm of the servant who made a mistake.
“Make the piece into a necklace and wear it.”
I opened my mouth.
“A necklace is the closest accessory to the heart. “Keep your mistakes closest to your heart, reflect on your mistakes and be sorry.”
“…….”
“Don’t wait for me to forgive you. When you think enough is enough, forgive yourself. “Do you understand?”
“Yes, yes…” … !”
I turned my back and walked away.
On the evening of the day this happened, Raviel spoke.
“Your wife showed a thoughtful response.”
I cut the meat with a knife and fork. I was learning table manners while eating dinner. Raviel deliberately moved his hand slowly across from me so that I could fully see and learn.
“uh. hmm. “Am I right?”
“It couldn’t have been more wonderful. If his wife had forgiven him easily at that time, [Maybe because he comes from a lowly background, he is not strict with his subordinates. People would have said something like, “How can one lead a duke’s family with that kind of attitude?” “If I had pressed him hard, a rumor would have started going around saying, [He is already arrogant, as he was a man who rose to prominence overnight].”
Either way, you’re out.
“Even if you forgive or scold her, people will curse at you. In this case, the nature of the incident is not important. Packaging is important. “The wife cleverly packaged this incident by creating a beautiful story.”
Raviel smiled.
“What happened today has already spread throughout the empire’s social circles. A person who is purely curious will admire her personality, and a person with a thick mind will recognize her wisdom. I thought you were illiterate in politics. “What magic did my lover do?”
“… … “I was just thinking about Raviel.”
My knife split the egg yolk.
The color of the young chick has faded.
“A place I can’t see. “I found out that Raviel was running around a lot in places I didn’t know about.”
“hmm.”
“I thought about how hard you worked for me, and naturally, I started thinking about you too.”
I just thought from Raviel’s perspective.
『How should I behave best for my wife?』
“If I had forgiven my servant, I would have been accepted as a generous duchess. She would have been a strict duchess if she scolded her servants. However, I thought that the recognition of her as a [wise wife] would be most helpful to Raviel.”
“Why?”
“Just because I behave leniently doesn’t mean Raviel will be lenient. “Just because I’m strict doesn’t mean Raviel becomes strict.”
The candle on the table was lit.
“But if I become wise, Raviel also becomes wiser. Because choosing a [wise spouse] in itself means that Raviel is wise.”
“…….”
Raviel wiped her lips with a white napkin.
“You were thinking of me.”
“yes.”
“Confucius. You already helped me. The world may not know it, but you saved this world from the brink of destruction. I will seek it in the future. “Isn’t it okay to be a little unruly?”
“no.”
I shook my head firmly.
“I will be with Raviel for the rest of my life. It’s a lifetime. I don’t want to obsess over [what I did for Raviel]. I do not even want to think about it. “I want to give Raviel something more and something more precious than what she has given me so far.”
“…….”
“I hope that meeting me is the greatest luck in Raviel’s life. I hope that being with me brings the greatest happiness to Raviel. “Only I want to mean the most to Raviel.”
“… … “It’s not about luck or happiness.”
Raviel stood up from the table.
She slowly approached me and bent down.
“You are a miracle to me.”
Our lips overlapped.
* * *
Of course, not everyone bowed to Ivansia’s name.
“I am! In this marriage! “I’m against it!”
The Lady of the Golden Silk came to me every day and complained. Now that her crown prince had been summoned to the emperor, she could not have dared to confront Raviel directly, so she only protested to me.
“Didn’t you already stamp the document?”
“It’s invalid, it’s invalid! “I thought it was a joke so I filmed it!”
“Regardless of what you think, the documents are legally perfect.”
“Ugh… Ugh!”
The Lady of the Golden Silk chewed her fingertips.
“weird. Weird. This didn’t happen last time… Butterfly effect caused by me? No, I don’t think that’s the case… Ah, the cow who harvests the ruins, what on earth is going on? ?”
Cows harvesting ruins.
I deliberately tilted my head as if I was hearing that keyword for the first time.
“What do you mean?”
“… … it’s nothing!”
The Lady of the Golden Silk clenched her teeth.
“It’s okay. At least this is probably something the Lady of the Silver Lily planned!”
“This is the Lady of the Silver Lily. He will soon become a duke. “Be polite.”
“Tsk. Butler, I really hate you! “I will never forgive you!”
The Golden Silk glared at me and left the room. bang! The door closed roughly and the hinges creaked. It was a blatant expression of intention not to sit idly by and ignore this marriage. Perhaps the Lady of the Golden Silk will be the biggest obstacle to this wedding.
But I wasn’t worried at all.
The wedding day is 10 days away.
“Death King!”
Someone dressed as the Lady of the Golden Silk opened the door.
“Well, it looks like I’ve become the heroine of this apocalypse!”
I sat down in the chair and smiled.
“Mr. Heretic Questioner.”
“yes! Death King!”
“In ten days, the constellations of this world will invade.”
I spoke to my colleague who went from being my biggest obstacle to becoming my best helper.
“Please prepare for the temple, SSS-level religious person.”
etc,
