Chapter 182: Side story 11. All is well

***

Tamons symptoms began exactly as soon as he left Monstein.

To be more specific, it was right after Ashas morning sickness started again on the journey when she started thinking it would be okay.

Still, Asha resolutely endured the symptoms that were much more tolerable than the early days.

However, Tamon was not relieved as he watched Asha.

Even at dawn, he barely slept to check on her condition, and throughout the ride in the carriage, she rubbed and watered her and poured out his utmost sincerity.

Did three or four days pass like that?

Ugh.

Out of nowhere, Tamon started to feel nauseous.

It was a surprise to both Tamon and Asha.

Tamon was so strong that had never caught a common cold, let alone motion sickness, since he was born.

No matter how much he ate, his stomach was never upset.

 But suddenly he couldnt stand the nausea!

At first, he thought it might be because of the stress of not being able to sleep for almost a week and watching Asha as she was sick.

But to say the least, Tamons symptoms were bizarrely similar to Ashas morning sickness.

He barely ate and felt dizzy at the slightest smell, and felt so hot that he had to swallow water constantly.

But even more surprising than this, Ashas condition began to improve when Tamon began to feel morning sickness.

She was so startled that she didnt know what to do, but Tamon just laughed.

It is only now that this body becomes useful.

As the days went by, Tamon was quite pleased.

Its a hundred times better for me to be sick than it is for Asha to be sick. I feel better like this than watching you suffer.

It was a secret she would keep to herself forever, that Tamon, who smiled contentedly with a pale complexion, looked pitiful, yet slightly insane.

Anyway, with morning sickness as a substitute, Tamon suffered alone for about ten days.

Asha, who was feeling better and felt sorry, looked at the scenery outside the carriage window, looking brighter as she was able to eat normally again.

Although Tamon was tormented by the smell of food, he took care of Ashas every meal.

He had to make sure she was eating well, and see her smile.

Im happy though. Are you getting better day by day? In this state, as soon as I get to the mansion, I think I will be able to fly.

In the meantime, Asha involuntarily shook her head at his very satisfied smile. Tamon smiled in his pale state and kissed her hand deeply.

 .a foolish man.

Asha stroked Tammons pale cheek a few more times, closing her eyes as if exhausted, then turned her gaze out of the window.

Fortunately, she began to see the spire of Amors palace.

***

Everyone out, come on! Hurry!

The Krasis mansion shook with excitement.

Satin wiped the sweat from his forehead, speeding up his steps.

Dozens of attendants followed him and moved in unison.

Finally, the master is back!

The sun was high and the sky was absolutely clear, and the sea breeze was blowing refreshingly.

It was a day that was not lacking in welcoming the return of the master who had accomplished a great achievement.

Ugh, why is my heart trembling like this?

It was only about half a year.

When his master served as a general, he wandered for years on a much more dangerous battlefield.

Still, strangely, this return was particularly heartfelt.

It felt like welcoming a person who has gone on a really long and distant trip.

Oh, god, whats wrong with me?

Satin corrected his expression, pinching the tip of his bitter nose.

He saw knights and carriages coming in through the wide open iron door in the distance.

His heart was pounding.

will she come with him?

Satin recalled the figure of his master looking at Asha.

He didnt say anything, he just stared at her, but the warm energy that stood in his eyes overflowed.

It was a feeling that could not be described only with instinctive words such as lust or desire.

Although he did not have the talent to look into the depths of his masters heart, he knew that the emotions in those eyes were sincere.

Please, she has to come with him.

Satin clenched his fists and stared intently at the approaching carriage.

Behind Satin, stood three people with their eyes wide open and nervous.

will she come with master?

Of course! I trust our Asha.

The twins whispered among themselves as they stood on either side of Cassion.

Cassion looked at the twins exchanging determined glances with complicated eyes.

No, I believe in you, so why are you dragging me down?

Cassion growled low with a face that he wanted to run away from this place immediately. The twins, who were shaking their heads, lowered their voices and whispered.

Whats wrong with you? Even if youre nervous, calm down and wait. You wanted to welcome them anyway, because youve been waiting since dawn.

My, when am I!

The tips of Casions ears, who were screaming, turned red.

He frowned harshly as if he would never admit it, but only the twins laughter rang out.

Young Master is too shy. What are you hiding like that? If you couldnt see them off properly last time, and if you have conscience, shouldnt you welcome them back better this time?

Huh? Why does the word conscience come up here?

If you have a conscience, you should ask did everything go well? Im glad youre safe, I love you! Give Asha a present as well!

No, wait, Tasha! I cant tell Asha that I love her.

Hey, if youre smart, youre only going to tell your brother that you love him. Do you have no conscience at all?

dont you know youre treating me too harshly?

Cassion glared at the twins like they were crazy, but he knew they cared.

In fact, while Tamon was away, Cassion stopped by the mansion from time to time to handle the family affairs on Tamons behalf.

And whenever he came, it was the twins who helped him without fail.

Thanks to this, the three became closer.

In particular, Cassion, who was shy at being kind, only complained about the behavior of the twins, but he didnt mean it.

They have arrived.

The lobby, which had been noisy, fell into silence in an instant at Satins announcement.

A huge crowd of chariots and knights stopped at the place where there was a lot of tension.

Welcome, Commander Lutre, long time no see.

Satin was the first to approach and talk to the commander Lutre of Tulip Knights, who was at the forefront.

Tamon, who should have appeared by now, was nowhere to be seen.

When Satin looked at Lutre with bewildered eyes, Lutre blinked at the carriage standing in the center and said:

He came by carriage. We will unload the luggage, so please go see master Tamon.

.The master is the carriage?

Satine rushed to the four-wheeled carriage that stopped in the middle of the line with a puzzled expression on his face.

As soon as he arrived in front of the carriage, the door that had been tightly closed, opened.

Master!

In a voice filled with joy and surprise, Satin called out to him.

The moment when Tamon, with his stiff head and shoulders, turned toward Satin.

Satin was startled with a bewildered look on her face without realizing it.

Oh no! Uh, why is your face so bad? Where have you been injured !

It was an appearance that Satin had never seen before.

The sunken eyes that clearly show that he did not properly take care of his meal, the rough skin and the slender jaw line that was particularly sharp.

Ah, your complexion, why is your complexion so!

Astonished Satin stammered and looked at Tamons face sadly. But Tamon waved his hand as if annoyed, and said,

There are no injuries, so there is nothing to be surprised about. Its just that I got a little bit of carriage motion sickness.

Motion Sickness? Him? What!

Tamon said it lightly as if it was no big deal, but for Satin, it was something to be surprised about.

Tamon Krasis, the god of war who knew no death, was so sick that he looked damaged.

Satin was one of those who had been with Tamon from the very beginning. How strong and indestructible he was!

In the nearly 25 years of watching him, Satin had never really seen Tamon like this.

Its not motion sickness. Its not. He must have some kind of disease and be unable to speak publicly.

Satin couldnt believe it, so he denied the word motion sickness that came out of Tamons mouth.

There must be some reason, so Ill ask again later. Ill have to call the doctor first, and check again after dinner tonight.

Looking at Tamons rough complexion, Satin secretly clenched his fists.

Tamon glanced at Satin, then sighed and shook his head.

He could see what the old man was thinking.

But now, he didnt even have the energy to correct the misunderstanding.

Tamon took a deep breath. The familiar temperature and humidity, and the damp smell of the sea, quickly calmed him down.

While Tamon was holding his breath, Cassion, who was hesitating, was pushed forward by the twins hands and walked towards Tamon.

Tamon slowly turned around and looked at Cassion who was approaching.

Was it because of Tamons sharper impression?

Cassion shuddered involuntarily, then clenched his fists and steeled his voice.

Hahow is everything, brother?

How difficult was it to greet him?

Cassion bit his lip and lowered his eyes.

If it had been in the past, he would have been very proud of his impudence as a weapon.

He used to ignore the meaning of his brothers cold eyes, he fought him every time.

But now it was different.

Cassion acknowledged his differences from his older brother.

He also had to admit that he had never made any sacrifices or acknowledgment that Tamon did a lot for him.

After accepting that fact, he felt Tamon was bigger and scarier.

On the one hand, he was proud and proud that this terrifying, hard, and huge being was his older brother.

Cassion wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with his brother.

He seemed to have the courage, though he knew he was far short of it.

All thanks to she.

Yes.

Tamon, who was quietly looking at Cassion, reached out and placed his hand on his shoulder.

All is well.
