I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband

171 – Side Story, Luna’s Spirit

It’s already been three months since Luna was born.

I felt a slightly bitter taste in my mouth as the years passed by so quickly, but I am accepting that this is an inevitable part of being a father.

When I occasionally tell customers that it’s already been 3 months since my daughter was born, they react the same way I did.

I think it’s a little fun to look at the distant sky and sigh, ‘Has it already been that long…’

A lot has changed for my daughter in the three months since she was born.

Now, instead of looking wrinkled, he has become completely bouncy and very cute, and when he fully opens his eyes and looks at his dad and mom, he stretches out his hand and asks for a hug.

what? How does a child who is not even a year old express such will?

“Because you don’t know that, that’s why you don’t have children yet.”

“What does that matter?”

“Aren’t you planning on having children yet?”

I’ve never been asked directly, but if you’re not using birth control, isn’t it time to worry about infertility?

Even though Dave and Eri got married less than a year ago…

When I asked that out of concern, Dave chuckled, crossed his arms, and shook his head.

It felt like something was ridiculous.

“Who will take care of you if the two of us are gone?”

“There’s Etheria, Aria, Cain, etc., right?”

I think it’s admirable that you think of me, but isn’t it a bit arrogant to think that you are the only one who cares about me?!

However, I also need to hire a few more priests to help me…

Now, perhaps because he is not a member of the priesthood at the religious headquarters, a person in charge comes to visit him once a week, saying that there is nothing to worry about in that regard.

It’s a little annoying, so every time I come here, I just scratch my head and laugh.

The person in charge must be more bothered than me.

Now that it’s like this, we’ll have to hire about 3 more people within a month.

By the way, who should I pick?

The best thing for me is to choose from among my classmates.

“Everyone wants to be a priest who serves as a guardian, so you don’t have to worry.”

“I did.”

Then let’s not worry too much about it.

And if you don’t like it, you don’t have to do it.

The weather got a little chilly, so Dave and I came inside the house.

Even though winter is now over, it is still very cold.

First of all, it has become natural to wash your hands first when entering the house.

Perhaps because I have a baby at home, I have become very sensitive to outside germs.

Wouldn’t it be a big deal if my daughter caught a cold?

If I catch a cold, it will be a real problem if my daughter or Stella catch a cold.

“What are you going to do now?”

“I’m going to go see Luna.”

It was soon time to go see Luna.

If I don’t go see Luna at least 40 times a day, thorns will grow in my mouth.

Dave looked at me and smiled bitterly.

Now, it seems like it’s just an everyday activity and all that comes out is laughter.

“Then I’ll be in the living room. Call me if you need anything.”

“Okay. Are you having fun with Eri?”

“what.”

It seems like he didn’t understand the true meaning of what I said.

So, when will I be able to have children?

I sighed as I looked at Dave’s stupid face and went up the stairs to find my daughter’s room.

Even though the baby is only 3 months old, you must not forget to knock on the door.

Don’t you think you should get into the habit of knocking from now on so that later, when Luna grows up, she will be used to knocking on the door?

Even babies don’t have any privacy at all.

…I’m starting to go crazy over my daughter too.

I don’t know if this is normal.

“Luna~ Dad, I’m going in~”

“cadet.”

Hehehe.

My daughter is now 3 months old and knows how to babble.

As soon as I heard the voice, I opened the door and went inside.

“My daughter, what were you doing…?”

“cadet.”

As soon as I opened the door, I saw something big and thought my brother was inside.

But, that wasn’t my brother.

For a moment, I couldn’t believe my eyes.

Did I do drugs or something? Or did you have schizophrenia?

As soon as I entered the room, what caught my eye was not a big bear… but rather a large teddy bear.

There’s no way my daughter would have such a big teddy bear.

In fact, I wouldn’t have been surprised if it had been just a teddy bear.

The reason I was surprised was because that teddy bear…

“So…the teddy bear is moving?!”

“Kum.”

Anyone could see that he was shaking the rocking bed that my daughter was lying on!

And very kindly!

Go…Bear…

Why on earth is there a bear in my house?

No, it’s not exactly a bear, it’s a teddy bear!

Anyone can see that it looks like a plush doll filled with cotton.

“Kum.”

“cadet.”

Cum! The bear was looking at Luna and shaking Luna’s rocking bed, which was not on guard for her.

There seemed to be no intention to harm Luna or anything like that.

Luna is also laughing as if it’s fun.

It looked like everyone was taking care of him.

No way…that big teddy bear….

Is it a spirit?

“You… are you really a spirit?”

“Kum.”

The teddy bear nodded.

Judging by the fact that it understands what I’m saying, it’s definitely a more intelligent entity than a spirit.

Gulp….

Then, can I come up and touch it?

Normally, spirits cannot be touched by anyone other than the contractor, but in my case, I have a special constitution that allows me to touch the spirits even if I am not a contractor.

As expected, it is a bear (doll) that does not move even when approached slowly.

Since it’s a spirit, it seems like it’s on guard or something.

Somehow, I slowly approached and placed my hand on the bear (doll).

Fluffy and soft…

No, is this really a teddy bear?

Even if spirits take on appearances of their own choosing, isn’t a teddy bear an object, not an animal?

Oh, of course it might be better than a scary spirit in the form of a large bear.

If you look at it this way, it looks like an extremely friendly teddy bear.

“Hmm… no sense of discomfort… no fear…”

“cadet.”

“My daughter seems to like it too, so I guess it’s okay..”

The fact that the spirit is here means that it has made a contract with my daughter.

Becoming friends with spirits from a young age is not a bad thing, but rather a good thing.

I tried to keep Perry and Yongyong attached to Luna when they were about 2 years old, but there was no need to do that anymore.

Because this is how I created my own contract spirit.

“Our Luna is doing well. She has a strong spirit.”

“cadet?”

Of course, my daughter doesn’t know that.

I’m just crying aww.

Hmm… But if you think about it, there won’t be any danger if the spirit is by your side.

It’s a big teddy bear, so it’s probably soft.

Aren’t you jealous of Stella for no reason?

I might try several times to be hugged by a big bear.

***

I told Stella that Luna had a spirit.

Naturally, when Stella entered Luna’s room and saw the large teddy bear, she fell in love with it at first sight.

It’s a secret that I ran towards him to be held in his arms, but fell over when he passed…

Perry and Yongyong are allowed to touch each other, but Luna’s spirit is still not possible because she has never received such an order from Luna.

So, it is only possible for about two years.

At least Luna should be able to speak, right?

“Wow… I’m jealous of you, sir…”

“Ahem… I can touch it without any worries.”

Still, there is no point in envying me too much.

The reason I have this power is because I am the reincarnation of King Jin, who was called the guardian of spirits.

King Jin also said that he touched the spirits recklessly.

Ah… Anyway, the teddy bear is nice too.

“But you’re a bear, are you okay? I wonder if you make a mistake and cause an accident…”

As I was being held by the bear, Mr. Eri, who was standing behind me, started talking.

She seems worried because it looks like a big bear.

“You don’t have to worry about that. It’s not a bear, it’s a doll, and it only looks like this, but all spirits are the same, right?”

“Yes, but…”

“It’s so soft anyway that it’s hard to get hurt.”

Hehe, other people can’t touch it, but I know because I can touch it.

This teddy bear has a softness similar to a latex pillow.

At the same time, it seems like you can make it hard at your own will.

Wouldn’t we be able to see Luna riding around on this teddy bear in the future?

It’s cute just thinking about it.

“I have to give Mom a ride later too? Okay? My daughter?”

“cadet?”

“I’m still young so I don’t understand what you’re saying.”

“But~ If I tell you now, won’t I give you a ride later?”

That’s right.

Since you’re my daughter, why don’t you give Mom a ride?

Should I ask for a ride too?

Honestly, I want to ride it at least once.

“But does this spirit have a name?”

“name?”

And Etheria, who was behind her, finally spoke.

name………

It’s a bit inconvenient without it, but isn’t it a bit strange that we give it a name?

The name must be decided by the owner.

The names we give are not our true names.

“Then how about I call you Teddy for a while? Teddy from Teddy Bear.”

“For your naming sense, that’s not bad! Ah! That was a compliment!”

…..?

You just said that was a compliment?

I don’t think so.
