Elric lived each day faithfully.
Because every moment of living with Tyria in Wivin was beautiful.
Because today’s happiness cannot be postponed until tomorrow.
Learning was to be a husband, a father, and a lord.
I lived in such fullness for a week, then three days.
『Please come back soon.』
The moment has arrived when you have to face what you have been putting off.
*
It was early morning when I received the letter.
Elric calmed his mind as he looked out the office window at the sight of the green summer wheat fields brightening the land.
‘I should tell you.’
This is something that cannot be postponed.
On the battlefield, he had already shown this much consideration for his convenience.
Tyria was busy getting various educations for her child.
We’ll probably meet around lunchtime.
What was rising was hesitation.
Why does it feel so difficult to say that I will leave even though it was expected?
As I was thinking about how to say this, I realized that the dirty time only goes by quickly at times like this.
“My lord, your wife has returned.”
“Let’s go down.”
“Can I prepare a meal right away?”
“Yes, please give it to me.”
Elric left the office and went down to the first floor.
I saw Tyria just getting off the carriage and returning to the mansion.
“You came.”
As I said this with a bright smile, Tyria approached me and gave me a light hug.
“Have you finished all your work for the morning?”
“exactly.”
“You’re not putting it off again, are you? Maybe you made a mistake in your calculations… .”
“That doesn’t happen. “Your wife doesn’t trust me very much.”
“You must have made a lot of mistakes.”
Elric felt his heart sink at the playful scolding.
“Let’s start with eating. let’s go.”
I led her to the restaurant.
Tyria ate maternal food. I didn’t even know such a thing existed, but the doctor Edward wanted had changed everything about Tyria’s life to suit the child.
“Isn’t it difficult? “Maybe the diet doesn’t suit your taste.”
When I asked out of concern, Tyria answered without the slightest hesitation.
“I want my child to eat something he likes.”
There was an affection that could not be hidden in the voice.
If she was like a mother, she had a motherly attitude, and if she was like Tyria, she had a Tyrian attitude.
Ah, you are using all your strength for your child.
She is doing her best for this family.
I’m happy thinking about it, but I feel like words are getting stuck in my throat.
It was a long task to come up with a clear answer.
It was a moment when I couldn’t even eat properly.
“house owner.”
“Ah, um.”
Elric raised his head at her call.
Tyria, who was sitting across from me, was smiling.
“Don’t you have something to say to me?”
Suddenly, my fingertips shook and the cutlery hit the plate.
how? Was it obvious like that?
“I heard there was a letter from the West. To the butler.”
“… ah.”
Was it Rdio?
Bitterness appeared at the corner of Elric’s mouth.
“It’s because the head deacon is so soft-spoken.”
“It’s not about being light, it’s about knowing the real situation. “I think it’s wise.”
“There is no one on my side.”
“I just need to be on the head of the family.”
Why does the tension go away as soon as we exchange light jokes?
When I see Tyria smiling, that thought suddenly comes to mind.
This person was already preparing.
That smile, I’ve been preparing for this moment.
It’s probably to ease the burden.
I’m just grateful.
To the point where I don’t know how to express my feelings.
“… “I plan to leave tomorrow.”

“Then I guess I should get some rest today.”
“I want to spend time with my wife.”
“Yes, I will leave everything on my schedule.”
Elric looked at Tyria’s hand.
Her hands moving the dishes were shaking a little.
*
I knew she didn’t want to go on this journey.
In fact, it was a journey that Elric did not want to take, but what could he do?
It’s just a pity that this is the only solution.
As such, Elric wanted to be faithful to this day.
He stayed by her side all day, talking about children, the future, and each other.
The conversation didn’t stop until we went to the bedroom at night.
It was also a promise I made to myself.
It is a verbal expression of the will to return.
“How is your sleep these days?”
“I always sleep well, so is there any difference?”
“Well, I’m the only one who has trouble falling asleep.”
“… “Are my sleeping habits that bad?”
“I think it’s attractive.”
“These are empty words.”
As Elric continued chatting, his eyes focused on Tyria lying on his arm for a long time.
I’m still filled with the thought that if I go to the battlefield, I won’t be able to see him again for a while.
I rub her cheek and feel her breathing, and then there is silence as Tyria dozes off.
When Tyria falls asleep, I erase all thoughts from my mind so as not to forget the warmth in her arms.
That moment was for a long time, some moment.
‘There are three.’
I thought back to myself.
‘There are three of them. ‘Something I must protect for the rest of my life, something I must not let go of.’
My home that must be protected in the face of any adversity.
My home, to which I must willingly give up even my life, and to which I must also take ownership.
Completing Elric Portman were Tyria and her unborn child.
Warmth and heartbeat, you will not be alone.
That is enlightenment.
“ah.”
I felt like I knew something.
The moment his mind cleared and the mana pounding in his heart spread throughout his body in joy, Elric instinctively became convinced.
‘… Geomje.’
You are wrong.
*
The next morning was busy.
All of Wibin’s people gathered in front of Elric, who was leaving the mansion in light clothing.
“You must come back victorious!”
“You idiot!!! If you don’t get hurt… .”
“This person is in trouble again. “Shut your mouth!”
“My lord! “I will support you!”
“Elric! “Destroy everything!”
Everyone who is shouting noisily is smiling.
No, is Rdio crying?
He says, “Young lord,” “Young lord,” and at this moment, he chants “Young master,” as if he sees you as a child.
It was an instant before I was dragged away by the head maid.
It was quite pleasant and also touching.
I was grateful that they all had no doubt that he was alive.
“How long will it take?”
Tyria asked.
They were holding hands.
Elric thought about the flow of war.
A time when the isolated empire’s supplies were running out, morale was falling, the heavenly interests remaining in the imperial capital, and the Sword Emperor.
How long will it take to get rid of all that?
Finally, I answer.
“Until the wheat is harvested.”
The day this Wibin turns golden like the day we met again.
That on that day we will be together in this mansion again.
“I will work during the harvest season this year.”
Elric said and hugged Tyria.
Immediately after, I fell and put my hand in my arms.
“Please keep this.”
What he took out and handed to Tyria was a dagger with a dead blade.
At one point, it was an object that Elric cherished as if it were his own body, and it was also a shadow of his past.
“What is this?”
“It’s an amulet.”
“A talisman… ?”
“Every time I felt weak on the battlefield, I took it out and held it tightly. “That made me feel relieved.”
“Then you should take it with you.”
Tyria declined and tried to put the dagger in Elric’s hand again.
Elric refused.
“It’s okay.”
There will no longer be a day when you are afraid of the shadows of the past.
“It’s something I don’t need anymore.”
So for those of you who still need this.
“If there comes a time when you are worried, please hold on to this and pray. That’s all I need.”
Tyria’s eyes trembled.
Elric grinned.
The realization that passed by during the night still remains within me, awakening my heartbeat.
Everything that is reflected on the retina is once again engraved in the mind in a clear form.
“I’ll come back.”
So Elric turned around.
That’s why I suddenly felt funny.
I left Weibin a total of three times in my life, and this was the first time I spoke of reunion.
*
Cheeeeeek!
Kingdom joint camp on the Western Front.
A train came into the station.
Zeldia spoke while sitting on a chair.
“Is that the train?”
“Yep, if you came with the ticket I sent you, that’s the car.”
Edward answered politely.
No, in fact, Zeldia had already expected Elric to be on that train.
After all, a strange energy is radiating from inside the train, so how could that train be the only one not aware of the difference?
Nevertheless, there was only one reason to be suspicious and ask.
‘Isn’t it because you took a break?’
Mana jumps out heterogeneously from the train.
It was a distant and incomprehensible type of mana that Zeldia had never felt in the 120 years of his life.
It was the second time in my life.
‘Can we win?’
It is a feeling that an individual has a temperament that seems impossible to resist at any cost.
The first, of course, is Geomje.
However, Elric’s mana was of a completely different nature than that of the Sword Emperor.
Cheeeeeek!
While my thoughts were passing by, the train door opened.
Zeldia was delighted to see the man walking out from inside.
‘Oh, I can’t win.’
I can’t beat him.
And, even the Geomje cannot defeat him.
“Why did you come out to meet me?”
Zeldia sensed that all the lingering regrets of this life would be resolved.
