The Overlord of Blood and Iron

Chapter 234

Chapter 234: A Humble Wedding

Kang Chul-In’s gaze scanned the thick forest and ground 50 meters away from him .

Let’s take a look .

He activated the Oraclomind to amplify his brain power .

The trembling ground .

The swaying of leaves .

The scent .

The flow of wind .

All kinds of information diffused into Kang Chul-In’s brain, allowing him to visualize the camouflaged enemies . This was the power of Oraclomind, which maximized its user’s five senses .

It’s not just one or two enemies . . .

Kang Chul-In let out a grin .

In fact, about a hundred of them were in stealth mode .

One could only assume that they had planned meticulously to kill him .

“Ah!”

At this moment, Ninetails suddenly exclaimed .

“Husband! These people are not enemies!”

“Not enemies?”

“They are my subordinates!”

“ . . . ?”

“They are members of the Fox Valley Intelligence Agency . ”

Ninetails shouted over to where Kang Chul-In’s gaze rested on .

“The Queen of the Fox Valley commands you:”

A firm voice .

A stark contrast to her tone with Kang Chul-In .

It had a charismatic tone of a queen, indeed .

“Show yourselves!”

Immediately, those ‘enemies’ revealed themselves .

Crack, crack!

The ground split into half .

Swish, swish!

The leaves swayed .

And,

“Your humble servant… Aluko… greets… her Majesty . . . ”

A demi-human with an owl head bowed in front of Ninetails .

“Yes, thank you for all your effort . Greet my husband, too . ”

“Y-Your… Majesty . . . ”

Aluko didn’t look too well .

“Did I… surprise you… your Majesty… Kang Chul-In . . . ”

“ . . . ”

“You don’t… have to… worry… we are… her Majesty’s… bodyguards . . . ”

Aluko’s voice trailed off and his eyes were half-closed, almost as if he were about to fall asleep .

“…Is he sleepy or something?”

Kang Chul-In mumbled to himself in absurdity .

“You are right, dear husband . ”

“ . . . ?”

“An owl-human is nocturnal, so he tends to doze off during the day . However, he is more agile than any other being at night . ”

“I-I see . . . ”

In fact, the 49 owl-humans that appeared with Aluko were dozing off as well . Some of them were even drooling .

“Take a rest, Aluko . ”

At that moment, a demi-human with a rat-head appeared in front of Ninetails .

“Schröder, your humble servant, greets her Majesty! And also his Majesty, Kang Chul-In!”

He greeted both sovereigns in sequence .

Behind him, 49 rat-humans were lined up .

“I apologize for not telling you in advance, as this bodyguarding mission was to be done in secret . ”

“I see . ”

Kang Chul-In withdrew his Kaiforce and nodded .

“Keep up the good work . ”

“Not at all! For her and his Majesties’ safety, this is nothing!”

Schröder was a staunch man indeed .

“The rat-humans are experts at burrowing . Thanks to that, they rarely get detected by the enemy radar . If it wasn’t for you husband, nobody would have noticed . ”

Ninetails explained .

“Oh-hoh . ”

Kang Chul-In nodded his head and gave a satisfied expression .

Rat-humans that were capable of burrowing .

Owl-humans that were agile at night .

They couldn’t have asked for better bodyguards in these foreign terrains .

“You flatter us!”

Schröder shouted loudly .

“Not at all . ”

Kang Chul-In shook his head .

“I didn’t notice your presence for the past few days, as well . Amazing stealth abilities you have . ”

“Thank you for your compliment!”

“We’ll leave it to you, then . Don’t worry about me, focus your manpower on protecting Ninetails instead . ”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

“Well then, you may continue with your task . ”

“Aye!”

The members of the Fox Valley Intelligence Agency returned to stealth mode .

“Fantastic talents . ”

Kang Chul-In turned around to face Ninetails .

“Right? They will all become your loyal subjects, too!”

“Is that so?”

“My body and soul, and all my possessions belong to you!”

“Hmm . . . ”

“You don’t have to feel burdened by that . They say God joins a husband and wife together!”

Ninetails smiled as she spoke .

“R-Right . ”

Her everlasting devotion for Kang Chul-In moved him a little .

And,

You are a good woman, Ninetails .

He began to develop feelings towards the queen .

Was it just because she was like the Giving Tree?

…No way!

Ninetails not only displayed traits of a good wife, but she also revealed the innocence of a young girl .

In addition, she was sometimes a femme fatale, who even had the cold-hearted Kang Chul-In on her fingertips .

Last but not least, they were fiancées . It was natural for them to gradually develop feelings for each other .

Pzzt!

At that instant, the Needle of the Empress detected Kang Chul-In’s feelings and emitted a strong volt of electricity .

Keuk!

He could barely hold his groan back .

Damn it!

He really had to unlock the penalty option soon .

***

A few days later, in the afternoon, Kang Chul-In and Ninetails infiltrated deep into the Baldur region and would reach Cyamodus soon afterwards .

Soon, Cyamodus came into their sight .

“Pardon this brief inspection . ”

The guards at the west gate of Cyamodus stopped Kang Chul-In and Ninetails .

“Who are you and where are you from?”

“We are Smith and Helena from one of the free cities . We happened to pass by during our honeymoon trip across the continent . ”

“Your ID?”

“Here you go . ”

Kang Chul-In was a proficient liar . He handed over a fake ID to the guard .

“Hmm . . . ”

The guard inspected the ID for quite some time but,

“You may enter . ”

He fell for the trick in the end .

“Please get your visa from the immigration office by today evening, elsewise you will be deported for espionage . ”

“Certainly, will do . Thank you . ”

“Thank you for your hard work!”

Fortunately, the two of them could pass through the gate without any friction with the guards .

“Hold on!”

At that instant .

“Hey, was your name Smith?”

An officer of the west gate garrison narrowed his eyes in suspicion .

“What’s the problem?”

Kang Chul-In replied casually .

“You look familiar . . . ”

“How can that be? I am . . . ”

“No, I’m positive . ”

The officer dug through his pockets and whipped out a paper scroll .

Damn it .

Kang Chul-In’s face twitched . What was drawn on the paper scroll was none other than his own face .

“Hmm…without this moustache, you look almost identical to Kang Chul-In . ”

The officer’s voice carried a hint of skepticism .

Damn it, if only I had an item for disguise .

Kang Chul-In was flustered inwardly .

He carried many items, but none of them let him hide his identity . Wearing a mask would only stir more suspicion .

“Oh-ho, Mr . Officer! Are you telling me that my dear husband looks like that evil and cruel Overlord?”

Ninetails smiled and distracted the Officer .

And,

‘Mesmerize’!

Ninetails’ eyes flashed with a pink beam of light .

“Really? My handsome officer?”

“T-That’s not…!”

“I’m disappointed . . . ”

Ninetails dropped her head .

“N-No, not at all! Mrs . Helena, that is not true!”

Suddenly, the officer’s attitude changed 180 degrees .

“Righttttt?”

“Of course!”

Not everyone agreed with the officer, however .

“Major Wilson! That man’s moustache is still very suspicious!”

“That’s right! We should inspect him further…!”

“What if that man is really the cruel Overlord Kang Chul-In!”

The remaining soldiers persuaded their superior to review his decision .

“Oh-ho, my dears?”

However, Ninetails easily mesmerized them all .

“Do you really think so? Heung . . . ”

Ninetails’ voice had a hint of mana of seduction .

“W-We must have been mistaken . . . ”

“Please feel free to enter!”

“I love you . . . ”

Over twenty soldiers were seduced by Ninetails, becoming mindless idiots .

“Husband, did I do well?”

Ninetails smiled brightly .

“That was excellent . ”

Kang Chul-In nodded and praised her .

***

After that brief crisis, Kang Chul-In and Ninetails continued heading towards the heart of Rothschild’s territory .

A day passed .

“Groom Smith, do you solemnly swear to love bride Helena for eternity?”

Kang Chul-In and Ninetails held a humble wedding in the temple of Kestos, the goddess of love, located in the outskirts of the city . Considering their status, it was really an unpretentious wedding .

“I do . ”

Kang Chul-In replied .

Marriage system activated!

Do you accept Ninetails as your wife? (Yes/No)

Yes!

The system notification popped up .

“Bride Helena, do you solemnly swear to love groom Smith for eternity?”

“Certainly!”

Ninetails replied .

“Now, you may kiss the bride!”

The priest, who was notorious for his greed, instructed Kang Chul-In and Ninetails to kiss .

“Here I go . ”

“Huh? Heub…!”

Ninetails gasped as Kang Chul-In advanced towards her without warning .

H-Husband…! H-Heung…!

Ninetails could hardly contain herself during her first ever kiss . It was extremely sweet and delightful .

“Heung . . . ”

Ninetails moaned throughout the kiss .

H-Husband… you are too good at this!

It was because Kang Chul-In’s kissing technique was fantastic!

T-These two!

The priest stood there in shock as he witnessed the passionate kiss between the couple .

H-How are they even kissing like that…!?

He had never seen anything like that before .

After some time, the kiss finally ended .

“D-Don’t look at me!”

Ninetails whined cutely and covered her blushing face .

Pfft!

Kang Chul-In smiled .

He could still remember how she was about to pounce on him during their first encounter . Now, she was just a girl who puffed up her cheeks in embarrassment .

Marriage established!

Ninetails is registered as your spouse!

The status notification finally announced their successful marriage .

God damn it!

Kang Chul-In’s face stiffened suddenly .

The notification… was a bit disturbing .

[Spouses]

Wife 1: (Locked!)

Wife 2: Ninetails

Wife 3: Empty

Concubine 1: Empty / Concubine 2: Empty

Concubine 3: Empty / Concubine 4: Empty

Concubine 5: Empty / Concubine 6: Empty

Concubine 7: Empty

What is this nonsense…!

It was a humble wedding indeed, but it was his first one nonetheless . But now the system was saying that she was his second wife? Kang Chul-In could hardly comprehend this bullshit .

Pzzt, pzztt!

At that instant, the Needle of the Empress emitted a strong volt of electricity .

Flash!

It sparked violently .

-Warning, warning!

-Penalty option activating!

The catastrophe was finally about to begin!
