The Flower That Was Swallowed by the Beast
Chapter 39
Iris became flustered as soon as that realization struck. She had never felt this way before, so she didn’t know how to react.
Unknowingly, she pushed Keivrand’s head away with both hands, enough to tilt his head back completely.
‘Damn, I wanted to keep going.’
She hadn’t meant to reject him.
Fortunately, Keivrand turned around and laid down next to her without showing any sign of displeasure. Then, stretching out one arm toward her, she wondered what he was trying to do as they made eye contact.
She didn’t know what Keivrand wanted her to do, so she stared blankly at him. Seeing her like that, Keivrand nudged his arm and spoke.
“Aren’t you going to lie down?”
However, Keivrand’s arm crossed her spot and there was no room for her to lie down.
While trying to figure out where to lie, she went to a corner where his arm didn’t reach.
Keivrand, who was watching this, burst into laughter.
“Irie, do you know that sometimes you’re really weird?”
Iris had no idea why he was laughing, so she gave him a curious look.
Keivrand came close to Iris and placed his arm under her head as he pulled her into his arms.
“I meant to lie down like this, Irie. Don’t you know of an arm pillow?”
Of course she knows.
But she doesn’t remember doing such a sweet thing with a sober mind.
Her face was pressed against Keivrand’s chest, and his body odor strongly stimulated her sense of smell.
The earthy smell of forest and grass.
A refreshing scent of a clear lake.
“You smell like the earth, Kei.”
“You didn’t know? Before I go to bed, I change into a wolf and roll around in the dirt.”
“Really? If so, I’d love to see it.”
“I’m just joking, Irie.”
He kissed the top of her head.
His arms were tight enough to embrace her, but he wanted to hold her tighter.
If he hugs her harder than this, Iris might feel suffocated, but even so, he felt like something was missing.
“Go to sleep, Irie.”
“I can’t sleep.”
“Then…”
He took the Sleep Stone out of his pocket.
Iris didn’t want to go to sleep yet. She wanted to feel this way a little more in his arms.
But before she could say so, the Sleep Stone brushed her forehead. In an instant, her whole body relaxed and she fell into a deep sleep.
Keivrand placed the Sleep Stone back into his back pocket and stared at the defenseless Iris who had fallen asleep in his arms.
Even when he was holding her, he felt that it wasn’t enough.
He wondered, will his needs be satisfied if he hugged her as hard as he wanted?
‘No, it’ll break Irie.’
Her flesh was soft and tender, so it felt like she would break like pudding if he hugged her even a little bit harder. It was the first time he held such a tender existence in his arms, so he didn’t know how far he could go. He wanted to hug her stronger than this, but it would be a big problem if she breaks.
Iris had a light smile on her face as if she were having a good dream.
Keivrand lost track of time as he looked down at Iris, happily watching her sleep like this.
His shadows were waiting for him, but it wasn’t easy to get out of bed.
“Why isn’t the boss coming?”
“Maybe he fell asleep with his wife?”
“No way. The boss told us to stay up and wait. He’s not so lousy as to have slept on his own.”
With Keivrand’s acute hearing, he heard the conversations between his shadows.
‘I really need to get up.’
He carefully pulled his arm out of bed so that Iris wouldn’t wake up. Still, he stood next to the bed and looked down at her before turning around.
“Ah…”
A cute nasal sound caught Keivrand’s ankle.
‘Ah?’
He turned his head around.
Iris’ eyes were still closed but there was a deeper smile than before.
“Ah, no you can’t do this.”
Iris’ red, plump lips murmured.
A cute voice that Keivrand had never heard before.
“You can’t do this, huh?”
Gulp-
Keivrand swallowed his saliva.
What kind of dream was his wife having for her to make such a cute sound?
‘Of course it’s a dream about me.’
Keivrand was confident.
Dreams are the product of the unconscious mind.
He believed that he was the only one who could make Iris show this cute side of her.
One day, Iris will be just as sweet to him in real life.
‘I’ll make it happen soon.’
As he turned around with renewed determination,
“Ah, you’re so cute, Windy.”

Keivrand, the guardian of the sacred relics, was a very busy man.
The former guardian of the sacred relics, Count Wyvern Green, wasn’t very active in finding and collecting the sacred relics.
[If you gather all of these dangerous things in one place, bad things will surely happen.]
Even if he knew the location of a sacred relic, he would leave it untouched unless it was very dangerous.
Keivrand had a similar policy, but he was active in finding the location of the sacred relics.
The sacred relics will be of great help if there comes a day he has to fight for the freedom of beastmen. Although he hasn’t found anyone else who could handle the sacred relics, if he scours the continent, there’s bound to be a person who can handle it.
And if that’s the case, since there are almost no wizards left, it will benefit Keivrand greatly.
It was natural for Keivrand’s shadows to find out where strange phenomenons had occurred on the continent and hold meetings late at night to locate the sacred relics.
Tonight, there was one thing that wasn’t natural in the conference room where the meeting was held.
It was Keivrand’s gloomy expression.
Keivrand, who made the shadows wait a very long time, looked sullen from the moment he entered.
‘What’s wrong with him?’
Nathan asked Jamie with his eyes.
‘You don’t know, how would I know?’
Jamie also answered with his eyes.
Eugene sat silently as always, waiting for Keivrand to speak.
“Boss. Did you get dumped by your wife?”
He was as tactless as ever.
A deep wrinkle was carved between Keivrand’s eyebrows.
Nathan poked Wallace in the ribs so he would stop talking nonsense. However, Wallace took it in a different way.
“What is it? Tell us. Sister-in-law doesn’t like you, boss? Or did you force sister-in-law to do something…”
“Wallace, you need to shut up.”
As Keivrand’s expression grew darker, Jamie interrupted Wallace.
Wallace looked back at everyone with his eyes, ‘Why? What? Did I say something wrong?’
“Boss, what the hell is going on?”
Jamie asked as he looked at Keivrand.
Keivrand, who was staring at the table with gloomy eyes, slowly opened his mouth.
“I lost to Windy.”
“What?”
“I used a Sleep Stone on Iris, and she dreamed of Windy.”
“…Huh?”
“She looked very happy. She made a sound that even I had never heard before…”
Keivrand stared at the table and didn’t realize the shadows’ expressions were turning gloomy.
“What does my wife like about a unicorn that I don’t have?”
“A punch, boss.”
At Jamie’s words, Keivrand lifted his head.
“Jamie, you can’t hit Iris no matter what…!”
“Not Miss Iris, boss. Boss. I’m talking about you. I want to whack you on the back of the head!”
Jamie’s blue eyes were blazing as if they were about to explode.
Only then did Keivrand notice that the eyes of the other shadows were no different from Jamie’s.
Everyone here. They had a look in their eyes that said they wanted to take out their weapon and hit Keivrand.
“You kept us waiting until this late hour…For what? Were you sulking because Miss Iris dreamed of Windy? Did you really? Were you so upset that your wife was happily dreaming about a unicorn? Huh?”
“No, it’s…It’s a voice that I had never heard before.”
“Oh, I see. Our boss was so sad that his charms couldn’t even show up in his wife’s dreams.”
“Jamie. That’s a bit harsh.”
“Am I being harsh?”
Jamie looked back at the other shadows.
They shook their heads.
“What he said isn’t wrong, boss.”
Even Eugene, who usually doesn’t show his feelings, was giving Keivrand the look of ‘such a pathetic little man,’ which wasn’t much different from the other shadows.
Keivrand sighed deeply.
“Sorry.”
Jamie put back the dagger that was half taken out of his arms.
“Jamie, did you really intend to cut me?”
“Why, you don’t think I wouldn’t?”
“…Okay. I’m sorry. This is my fault.”
“As long as you know.”
“Hahahahaha!”
Suddenly Wallace burst into laughter.
“Why are you laughing again?”
“Hahahaha. Boss…you’re jealous of a unicorn. The boss…hahahaha. Really… Hahahaha. You look so silly, boss. Hahahaha. Oh, that’s hilarious.”
Nathan and Eugene’s lips also twitched.
Keivrand, who became a laughing stock, quickly opened up a map of the continent to change the mood.
“According to the information this time…”
“…Bwahaha. Sister-in-law had a dream about a unicorn…kuku…that’s funny.”
“Wallace, stop laughing, will you?
“It’s no use pretending to be dignified, boss. A unicorn… Hahahaha, jealous of that little Windy…hahahaha. I’ll tell Cel tomorrow.”
“Wallace! I thought I told you what happens in the conference room cannot be disclosed outside.”
Keivrand scolded with dignity.
“Boss, what are you pretending to be dignified about now? You’re jealous of a little unicorn and were caught.”
Nathan sided with Wallace.
Eugene, who sat silently and held back his laughter, finally spoke.
“I’m going to meet with the late Count tomorrow.”
“Why…? ”
“Because I need to let him know how his son has grown up.”
“Haa.”
Keivrand grabbed his head with both hands.
“You guys, once you find something to tease me about, you plan on making fun of me for the rest of your life, right?”
“Come on, boss. Not for the rest of our lives. This time…um. Nathan, how long will this one last?”
As if to reassure Keivrand, Wallace looked back at Nathan.
“About five years? But Cel will tease him for ten years.”
“It won’t last for ten years.”
Jamie said firmly.
“I think the boss will do more stupid things in the future.”
It was as Jamie said. Even while Keivrand was being teased, he was thinking of something foolish.
‘What can I do to make her dream of me?’
Keivrand looked back at his shadows who were making fun of him.
Even though his shadows were popular with women, they didn’t start a family because of Keivrand’s future plans.
‘Right, today’s meeting is over anyway.’
The important thing right now wasn’t to find the location of the sacred relics.
Keivrand slammed the table with his hands.
“Everyone, listen up!”

The giggling shadows stopped laughing and looked back at Keivrand.
Looking around at his dear and trustworthy men, Keivrand spoke.
“What do women like?”
