I Don’t Want To Be the Main Character

145. Wedding of the Century (10) Complete

1.

Suddenly, in the middle of a wedding ceremony, the ceiling of the building suddenly burst open. Without any warning, the wind suddenly blew in and the ceiling collapsed, and it seemed as if it was buried, but then the large pieces of the collapsed ceiling disintegrated into pieces and disappeared.

And of all places, it was the ceiling of the palace building.

“What, what is this…?”

“Gyaaah!”

“Is it magic? It’s magic!”

Naturally, the reaction was a mix of confusion and confusion. Everyone except the five who had agreed to the terms in advance, including Arwen, was taken aback.

“Verb…?”

Moreover, even Ludrick was quickly looking back at Sylphia with eyes demanding an explanation, asking what was going on.

It had to be that way. It was a conspiracy agreed upon in secret without informing Ludrick in advance, and the guests’ current bewildered reaction was exactly what Sylphia had truly wanted.

Sylphia looked around with the corners of her lips raised in a haughty manner.

Suddenly, the ceiling of the palace building where the ceremony was in full swing was magically dismantled. If it was Sylphia’s magic, a more moderate method would have been possible, but this rough method was exactly what Sylphia intended. And she was in a position to be revered, and had never experienced being ridiculed before.

That’s why I didn’t like it even more.

The fact that humans, who had been busy worshipping her as a dragon in the distant past, were now mocking her. No, until then, it was just a game, so I could have been tolerant and let it go. What I really didn’t like was that they were looking at Ludrick like that.

“If you watch, you will know.”

“What…?”

“Of course it is.”

Sylphia smiled brightly and mischievously at Ludrick, who asked with a puzzled face.

And then the light flashed.

A sign that the polymorph magic was being lifted. Ludrick’s single scream followed, unable to hide his confusion.

“Hey, Sylphia, you are now…!”

“I’m just watching in silence.”

With Sylphia’s response, a gigantic silhouette flashed through the flashing light. The ceiling had been blown away as a preliminary step to secure space for the main body to materialize. The dragon’s gigantic body slowly revealed itself amidst the storm of raging light.

The smooth, streamlined body was covered in red scales without a single gap. And just by appearing as the main body, the red magic power that symbolized her race surrounded the giant body as if guarding it. Even for someone who had never felt magic power in their life, the magic power that was tangible enough to be seen was scattered in a stream.

And, the bright yellow eyes with vertically slit pupils emanated an intimidating feeling to those present in the light.

“D, Dragon…….”

Everyone was speechless at the presence that Sylphia gave off. Born as prey, humans instinctively cower in front of dragons, which are predators. Someone with courage muttered weakly, making it clear that the being before them was a dragon.

Red Dragon.

Silphia, who had appeared as the main body, looked down at everyone with yellow eyes that gave the illusion of being a pumpkin.

at the same time.

“Since you’ve already done it, I have no choice but to go along with it.”

Arwen laughed briefly and her purple eyes lit up. It was an action that had many calculations behind it. Since it was Silphia who had taken the initiative, she was sure that even if she got scolded by Ludrick later, she would get scolded less. She also didn’t like the way the guests treated Ludrick like a strange spectacle.

Her polymorph magic isn’t as dramatic as Sylphia’s usual human-like polymorph.

But the most noticeable and prominent change was definitely the wings.

Before she knew it, the bat-like wings that had been suppressed with magic sprouted from Arwen’s shoulders. Unlike birds, the wings with thin membranes spread wide, the fangs grew longer, and the eyes gushed with red blood. The moment when all of the presence as a true ancestor that had been intentionally suppressed was released.

Unlike most who were dazzled by Sylphia’s presence, one prominent wizard in attendance from the magical community was astonished at the sight of Arwen.

“True…!”

“How could the King of Vampires….”

Although she didn’t have any external features that could be recognized immediately like Sylphia, it would be stranger if the vampire radiating that kind of presence right in front of her wasn’t the real one. The wizard’s face turned pale as he became certain of this.

Dragons and True Vampires.

There were two transcendent beings in front of me, who were not only difficult to handle but also questionable to match. In other words, the power of life and death for everyone in this place was in the hands of the two of them.

The corners of Sylphia’s mouth went up. This was the reaction she wanted.

People who had made assumptions about Ludrick after reading low-quality articles that were too embarrassing to even call media, or who had simply been prejudiced and ridiculed Ludrick simply because he did not conform to common sense, were now all looking at him with dumbfounded expressions.

“This is the right reaction.”

“…What exactly is right?”

“Those who used to slander and defame you are now all in awe of you. Those who can’t even raise their heads properly dare to be so presumptuous.”

“…….”

And then Ludrick actually shut his mouth. He didn’t say it out loud, but seeing Arwen nodding her head next to him made his back ache.

“I have a rough idea of ​​what you were thinking when you did this, but…….”

Ludrick’s eyes went dark. It seemed like things had been quiet recently, but he never thought such a major accident would happen on the day of his wedding.

In fact, when I thought about it objectively, I didn’t like the behavior of other people. However, apart from that, since I went against the ‘common sense’ that the world talked about, I was prepared to receive some degree of criticism. In a way, this current situation was close to being Ludrick’s karma.

As Ludrick closed his mouth, intending to see what the hell he was talking about, a smug Sylphia looked around and declared.

“You all have crossed the line.”

The first words Sylphia spoke out of the blue.

The way she spoke was no different from her usual Sylphia, but her voice was filled with anger. Even her usual feminine tone of voice, coming out of the dragon’s large body, was quite intimidating. It was a bonus that there were many faint-hearted people who rolled their eyes and fainted.

“Ludrick──That is, Ludrick Weiss is my companion whom I chose with my own hands. And yet you dared to say such nonsense about the dragon’s companion.”

“…….”

“It’s natural for me to feel bad, right? No, let me change the question.”

Sylphia’s eyes scanned the room.

“Why wouldn’t I kill you?”

A grim declaration.

But there was no refutation. Sylphia had the immense power to destroy everyone in this place if she wanted to. The only reason she could do that was because she was a dragon.

In reality, the rumors were not true, and even if the rumors about Ludrick were true, the only human who could fight a dragon one-on-one was Ludrick Weiss. While everyone was speechless and looked bewildered, the biggest victim was the cardinal who was officiating the ceremony.

“…….”

The cardinal, who was initially shocked, quickly came to his senses and looked at Arwen with a bewildered expression before hurriedly controlling his expression.

Even though he was rotten, he was a cardinal who could perform miracles called divine powers on behalf of the goddess. From the perspective of a priest who believes in true faith, the existence of Arwen, who could be said to be the worst of the heretics, was bound to be uncomfortable.

“You’re lucky. This is the first and last time you’ll look at me. And it’s only because I saw my husband’s face.”

“…I am the same. I declare myself the king of all vampires. Not twice. Isn’t that ridiculous? It’s because of my husband, whom you b*stards so slander and ridicule, that you are able to extend your miserable life.”

As soon as Sylphia’s words ended, Arwen joined in.

The most powerful means of controlling humans is fear. The two who believed this without a doubt, who were just threatening each other, immediately returned to their original forms. At the same time that Sylphia polymorphed back into human form, the ceiling that had once been disintegrated by magic was completely restored.

Everyone looked dumbfounded.

Anyone who was able to sit here was worthy of being called a VIP. It was hard to believe that these blue-blooded people had just been threatened with death by a transcendent being that could not be controlled by human power.

Even the cardinal who was officiating the service was unable to say anything and just had a puzzled expression on his face.

“Oh, I almost forgot this.”

Silphia nodded calmly as if nothing had happened and turned to someone.

“…….”

“Anyway, that’s how it turned out, but please take care of me from now on, Mother.”

Sylphia, with a brighter smile than before, bowed and lowered her head before Count Alin Weiss.

“……Please take good care of me too.”

The somewhat polite and well-mannered appearance and the intimidating appearance just before. Count Weiss, bewildered by the sudden change, answered late once.

Count Vice suddenly has a daughter-in-law with a dragon, and Sylphia is the first of the five daughters-in-law to strike.

“I’m going crazy.”

Ludrick muttered as he watched this sight.

2.

The wedding ended in a flash. Of course, many things happened after that. There was no such thing as a big headline in the newspaper or a special edition, and just like Sylphia’s theory that people listen well when controlled by fear, the public opinion against Ludrick disappeared in an instant.

There has never been anyone in the world who has ever dared to fight a dragon and harbored the ambition of becoming a dragon slayer.

And after the wedding, revenge naturally followed.

Ludrick’s irritation and anger towards the five people who did this without consulting him was difficult to handle, and Sylphia in particular had to suffer considerable humiliation as the price for taking the lead in doing this.

It was a minor story, but Ludrick had also moved out of the villa he had been living in for nearly a year and bought a new mansion in the capital. Ludrick thought it was nonsense to have his newlywed home be the imperial palace, so he changed his direction to buying a new mansion and working from home and commuting to work.

Another year has passed since that noisy wedding.

“…….”

Ludrick opened his eyes with a sullen face. He had a dream last night, but he couldn’t quite remember what it was about. There were days like that. Days when he woke up in the morning feeling uneasy and particularly dazed. Today was one of those days.

“Why am I so sleepy?”

Ludrick muttered a short message to himself and unconsciously looked around the bed next to him. However, there was no one in the bed. Normally, there would be one person lying down, or one or two more people sneaking in, but Ludrick was the only one in the bed.

“I don’t even feel any presence.”

Ludrick narrowed his eyes and groaned. There was no sign of life at all. Looking at the clock on the desk, he saw that it was still early in the morning. He extended his scope and zoomed in, but there was no one in the mansion. It was definitely strange that there was no sign of life at all.

Ludrick opened the door, put on his slippers, and looked out into the hallway of the mansion.

There was still no sign of life, and the hallway was empty.

‘Did I have a strange dream… …?’

At that very moment, Ludrick muttered at the sight that was so strange that he thought about it without thinking, and then came down the stairs and stepped into the living room.

Bang! Pababang!

With the sound of firecrackers exploding, Ludrick unconsciously flipped over the colorful paper. However, Ludrick did not panic and asked with a nonchalant expression.

“……What are you doing all of a sudden? Today isn’t my birthday.”

“It’s not your birthday. But it seems like Kyung is forgetting something important.”

Elena said with a faint smile on her face.

It wasn’t the first or second time he’d experienced such pranks since their marriage, so it wasn’t anything new, but today’s reaction was different from usual, and Ludrick was absorbed.

You’re forgetting something important.

And then the crazy Ludrick muttered with a puzzled expression.

“Wedding anniversary…?”

“If you’ve only just realized it now, even you’d be a little disappointed.”

Ludrick scratched his head in embarrassment as Eileen answered with a blank expression.

“I clearly marked it on my calendar, but I forgot.”

“Are you just going to brush it off and say you forgot? Of course you have to go on a date today. You can’t just skip out because it’s annoying, right?”

“I, who has a much longer sense of time, also remembered, but what if Ludrick doesn’t remember?”

“That’s too bad. I’ve been looking forward to today for several days.”

As everyone added their own words, Ludrick finally raised both hands and made a surrender gesture.

“Okay, I get it. I’m the one who’s at fault for forgetting our wedding anniversary. Well, I’ll just quietly give up today.”

Ludrick shook his head helplessly, still holding the colored paper over his head. The corners of Ludrick’s mouth, which seemed to say that he had no choice, rose slightly without him realizing it. Ludrick, who realized this belatedly, made a surprised expression for a moment, then smiled.

Thinking that this kind of daily life isn’t so bad.

I don’t want to be the main character in a romance novel.

The main story is complete.
