User blog:KuraiMAO1993/Inherited Lover: Chapter END

After all of it was over, the both of us cleaned up most of the mess that we’ve caused inside, like the toppling down of the book cases and making a mess of great-grandfather’s shrine, which I sincerely apologized for. Not only I apologized to him for all the things that happened, but I’ve also made a vow to him that I would take full responsibility as Mei’s current husband and I’ll make sure to give her a wonderful life.

“Great-grandfather, we’ll take our leave.”

“Chen my darling, thank you for everything up to now. I hope one day we could meet again.”

With that said, we left the shrine and traveled back up to the surface, luckily its morning. Now that I think about it, I’ve spent for almost two days in there at most.

(Breaths in and out)

“Fuuu~!….Ahh~! Nothing beats the fresh air of the surface!!”

Strangely, the air is currently feels refreshing unlike before when I came here. Was it just all my imagination that the air feels heavy back then?

“…I see. So this is the current world….”

Well it’s not surprising for her to have that reaction, since she’s been reanimated after almost a century.

“Right! Time to seal this place!”

“Alright!”

Agreeing with me, we sealed the treasury again by taking the keystone fragment from the stone tablet embedded on the ground, just before the entrance.

“Phew~! That should do the trick”

“Darling, are you sure you don’t need more than that?”

Mei was asking me if one small bag of gold was enough as my souvenir. She seems to be curious why I haven’t taken at least more, so I answered her truthfully.

“Well it’s just for our traveling expenses and we don’t need that much and besides….”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“Hm~?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">Damn! After all of the things we’ve went through, why am I getting embarrassed all of a sudden?!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">Come on say it!!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“….Y-You’re are more p-precious than any t-treasures in there…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“\\\\\\\\\  \\\\\\\\\---!!!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">Her face blushes as she was surprised hearing this. She was shocked at first but eventually calmed down and shows a cheerful look on her face.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“…Thank you, darling. I’m really happy when you said that to me. <span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"SegoeUISymbol",sans-serif;mso-bidi-font-family: "SegoeUISymbol";mso-ansi-language:EN-US">♡ “

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“—Y-Yeah…O-Okay! Let’s get going!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">With an embarrassed face, I quickly changed the topic and went on our way.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“Darling~ wait for me~!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">Mei quickly followed me from behind.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">……Though I’m still not sure of what to do, there is one thing that is clear. I will do anything for Mei’s sake!! And with that, our next destination would be the nearest Demon Realm and to find Mao-san for some advice.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">While thinking our next move, Mei catches up on me and cling to my arms as she made a pouting face.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“Geez~! Don’t just leave me like that…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“…S-Sorry, I got carried away.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“Fufu~! Well, it’s not like you did it on purpose so I’ll forgive you~ “

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“Th-Thanks…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">….That’s right. For the sake of our relationship, I must find some ways for my family to accept our union.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">“Darling, I love you~<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"SegoeUISymbol",sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-family:"SegoeUISymbol";mso-ansi-language:EN-US">♡ “

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">I gladly accepted her feelings for me as I gently smiled back to her, which in return made her really happy.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph; tab-stops:158.25ptright6.5in">In the end, we departed from the treasury and began our new journey together to our next destination, the nearby Demon Realm…
