Reincarnated as a Son of the Sword Saint and the Sage

Chapter 382  Love Birds

"Good morning to you too, Raphael." "You seem to have gotten up from your bed later than usual, and we found you inside Christine's room. I assume that you stayed the night there?" "Yeah, I spent the whole night with her." She responded with a stoic face as if nothing happened. "By the way, she is still soundly sleeping, if you ask."

"Okay. Let me ask you, Sister. Did you two...by any chance?..." As I was asking her that question, I gestured my fingers into the letter V for both hands, and then I intertwined them back and forth in repetition, implying something explicit to mention on the table. My sister immediately understood what I was trying to say and squinted her eyes at me with a little red on her cheeks. The same went with Iris and Natasha, though they pretended not to bat an eye and just continued eating. "That's quite rude, Raphael; you are violating my privacy." Big Sis shook off her head. "Please don't open that topic on the table." "Oh, sorry." I apologized to her even though I was wearing a big smile that exposed my teeth. "I am just curious, that's all."

"..." The way my sister gazed at me was giving off the air of subtly saying, "I know you were watching last night," which was actually true. However, I could not see or perceive how she actually felt about it if her institutions were right—whether she would be mad at me or contain it for herself. "Alright, we'll talk about it later. Also, I think Christine has recovered significantly, so she might be joining us with the discussion." "That's good for her, then." Afterwards, we continued consuming our breakfast. ◆◇◆◇◆◇

"Everyone, I have decided that I am going to marry." Afternoon, in front of everyone inside the living area, my sister suddenly uttered her declaration of her love for Christine with their hands holding. Both of them were beet red, but Christine's face seemed more reddish. Even though we had anticipated it, it really made us thrilled and excited the moment my sister herself dropped the real deal. "Congratulations, Sister. I am so glad for both of you." "Wow... I am glad that you two went well. Good blessings." "Congratulations, my ladies. May the Goddess bless you all." A small round of applause then echoed in the room to express how happy we were, at least to liven up the awkwardness within them. It was quite effective, thankfully, and they were now in the mood to interact. "I am also glad that you are doing well now, Lady Christine," I said. "Right now, you look a lot better than you were these past days, and I do hope that you will find happiness with my sister." "Um... Thank you, Lord Raphael." "If you will be my sister's bride, then you can drop the formalities every time you address me." "If you say so, then you can also address me the same, Raphael." "I got it, Christine." "Very well, Raphael, let's go back to the capital so that we could fight and officialize my love with Christine. I finally found the one for me, and I would even face the whole world and overcome any obstacles and challenges for her." "Louise..." My sister and Christine looked at each other with admiration before they closed the proximity between their faces and kissed. As the love birds were doing that, Iris suddenly elbowed me several times on my torso. When I took a glance at her, I could see that she seemed kind of enthusiastic. "Your sister already has her official bride. She is already ahead of you, Raphael."

"Ugh, alright." I groaned. "I will find my bride soon. If only I knew how to read if the ones I admired really had feelings for me." I pretended to play dumb and act sarcastically to see if Iris could get my signs. I had a hunch that she should have feelings for me if she followed us this far. I gave her a side eye and saw her giggling. "You are so funny, Raphael. How could they know if someone is loving them if no one is showing their love for them? I think you need a push." "...Well then." I immediately cut off the topic and railed back to Sister and Christine. "Should we head back an hour later?" "Let's do it, Raphael. I cannot wait to introduce my queen to Mother and Mom."
