I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband

chapter 26



26 – Finding a House

“Seobang-nim? Is it okay for a moment?”

When you put down the shovel and lifted the basket to move the last basket of your quota.

A soft and lovely voice rang in my ears.

You don’t even have to check who you are anymore.

The owner of that voice was, of course, Stella.

I set the last basket down on the ground and approached Stella, wiping my sweat with the towel hung around my neck.

“What are you doing at this hour? Isn’t it during the prayer meeting?”

Stella’s daily routine consists of more than 3/4 of the time praying.

So you probably don’t have time to rest or catch your breath outside of lunchtime.

“The prayer meeting ended quickly today. When will Seobang finish?”

“That’s the last basket.”

While wiping the nape of her neck with the sweat towel hanging around her neck, she pointed to the basket that had been put down where she had just been standing.

The basket looks small and light, but the coal inside weighs well over 40kg.

Wouldn’t it be similar to Stella’s weight?

Thanks to Stella for giving her magic every day

This is the weight she can lift because her body has automatically strengthened her stamina.

Do you know how heavy the items in that basket are?

Stella looked at me with a concerned expression, then took her handkerchief from her pocket and wiped the sweat from her forehead and down her cheek.

Did I just point out the basket?

She became like announcing that she was doing heavy and hard work.

Actually, it’s not that heavy or difficult.

“Are you having a hard time? Moving to a more comfortable department…”

“Don’t worry, it’s not hard at all thanks to the magic Stella gave me.”

Is it okay to cause trouble to others with just that!

I shook my head and said it was okay.

Strengthening physical strength is really amazing.

While constantly moving, it is not difficult at all and the body does not get sick.

Of course, if you lose your mana or stop moving and go into a state of rest,

Fatigue hits me all at once, and it’s a bit painful to have a tingling pain in my body.

In my case, it doesn’t hurt because Stella or Perry cast recovery magic.

“But…”

“It’s fine, so wait a moment. I’ll just move this.”

“Do you have to go?”

I just moved it to the next room.

Stella asking her to come back was like her wife, who was picking up her husband on her way to work.

“Seo… Holy Lady! Good evening!”

“It’s an honor…To see you!”

As I was about to walk through the door to my workplace, I heard a loud and roaring greeting.

I remembered all the voices of the priests in my department.

As soon as I heard the voice, I knew it was from another department.

“Hello. You’re having a lot of trouble.”

“Oh…No! I…Not…Hard…At all!”

“Please keep in mind every day that the church puts your health first.”

“W…Whether or not!”

Priests from other departments who came out after receiving Stella’s tender concerns and good words,

Looking at each other, they made faces as if they had an incredible experience.

“Seo… The saintess received the greeting…”

“Are you dreaming or real…And worrying…”

The priests passed by and looked inside

Stella was sitting on an expensive chair that was a bit unsuitable for being in a workshop, receiving greetings from priests and priests passing by.

I’m a bit dull because I’m Stella’s husband, but Stella is a saint higher than the Pope.

The priests may not know it, but the priests are people in the sky who can’t be seen close by.

Well, lately they’re coming to see me or having a meal together.

It seems to be a rare NPC that can be encountered with a very low probability inside the village or church headquarters.

“The West!”

It was Stella who was being greeted for a while, but

As soon as I confirmed that I was back, I cut off all attention from the people around me, jumped up from my chair, and ran this way.

Is it because I have a dog?

I got the impression that it was like a baby puppy coming to me and wagging its invisible tail.

“You waited? Shall we go to ‘that’ room?”

“No! I’m going to town today!”

“Is that so? Anything good by the way?”

I was a little curious because he was making a more happy expression than usual.

Stella always smiles when she sees me, but she doesn’t smile like this when other people see her.

“That’s it?…..hehehe…Actually…”

“Actually?”

“Today, I’m going to see the house where I will live with Mr. Seo!”

“Ohh…Oh…?”

A house to live with!

So you’re going to see our newlyweds’ house!

“But I heard before, didn’t Stella already say she had a house?”

“It’s a house where I lived alone, so it’s too small.

Stella seems to be conscious too.

That’s right, the ‘newlyweds’ we live in together.

I saw Stella’s face getting redder and redder.

I could feel that my face was flushing and giving off heat.

“I…Let’s go out. There are too many people watching.”

“Yes sir…”

He took Stella’s hand and escaped.

I could hear the female priests screaming from inside, all the way to the outside.

Many people saw us holding hands and going out, and made a little envious faces.

It was just a little surprising that it was like that for both men and women.

***

After coming down to the village, we headed straight for the real estate exchange selling houses.

In the original world, real estate was mostly a transaction between individuals and

It was common for brokers to intervene in the middle of the transaction.

However, in this world, there are very few transactions between individuals.

It is common to buy or sell real estate at the Real Estate Exchange, an organization affiliated with the Department of Housing and Housing of the Religion Bureau.

In a nutshell

It is possible to sell and purchase a house or building through a realtor who is a public official.

“What kind of house do you like?”

“Hmm…How spacious is the house with the bathroom big enough for two people…?”

“That…That’s…That’s what I think…”

“And I think it would be nice if it could fit a big bed.”

As I outlined some of the contents of the desired house, Stella blushed and bowed her head.

Are you a little mischievous?

Of course, it was the condition of the house I wanted, but I wonder if I said it too bluntly in front of Stella.

That’s also true, because she was blushing and stuttering her words beyond compare.

“What kind of house does Stella like?”

“That… That’s… That’s why…”

She hesitated and tried to avoid speaking, but she urged me while stroking my cheek, so I couldn’t help but start smacking her.

“…….Good…..”

Stella deliberately answered in a low voice.

I’m sorry, but it’s my husband’s heart to hear it louder and more closely, so I hope you understand.

“Yes? I couldn’t hear you. What did you say?”

“.

“Keuh…..”

With bright eyes like a squirrel, I heard that it would be nice if only I stayed

How could I not react?

The saying that your heart hurts when you see something cute is not a lie, it’s true.

I feel like my heart will break right now, but I am enduring it.

“Oh… Are you okay?”

“Whoa… Whoa… When… The heart…”

“Uh…Maybe…Heal!”

Stella panicked and used MAX recovery magic.

In an instant, green light began to emanate from the whole body, and the heart that had been aching until just now

I didn’t feel the pain like a lie.

Not only that, but the fatigue from the day’s work was healed all at once, and my eyes became sore.

Recovery magic is a moang that works properly even in the psychological part.

“I’m fine now…”

“I’m glad…”

Now I have to exercise every day to prepare for myocardial infarction.

How unfair would it be if he died of a heart attack due to his cute wife’s charms?

I will never reach Buddhahood, and I will stay by Stella’s side.

“Welcome, Holy Lady!”

“It’s been a while, Mr. Delville.”

When I entered the real estate exchange, a young-looking man greeted me right away.

After listening to the conversation between the two, it seems that they are old friends.

“This is Alvin, who will be my husband.”

“Oh! This is Alvin, who has a great reputation!”

Mr. Delville comes over and shakes my hand as if he already knows me.

Suddenly, I reached out and accepted his handshake.

Anyway, he has a good reputation.

What kind of rumors are going around…

“Has your reputation…Had…Had it…?”

“hahahahaha, he is famous as the saintess’s husband who was late for the dormitory roll call because he ate at Aunt Delena’s restaurant.”

“Ugh… I’m embarrassed.”

I never thought that the incident would have spread to the village.

It must have been spread by the senior priests and fellow priests.

There must be a lot of pretty good jokes, but to spread such a thing out of necessity.

If you spread it, like you ran hard on the first day of training or something like that, where does it add up?

“Looking at the exchange, it seems that the two of you are actually looking for a house together.”

“Yes, is there anything good?”

“There’s nothing nice around here, but isn’t there a nice mansion on the outskirts of town?

I bought it a while ago.”

Um… No matter how good the house is, it’s difficult if it’s far away.

Although this place is called a village, it is the largest city in the Church.

It will take at least 40 to 50 minutes to walk from end to end.

If you take a carriage, you’ll get there quickly, but…

And if you’re in a remote area, it’ll take longer to get inside…

“Uh, then can you move it to the village?”

“Of course, saintess.”

“How much will it cost to move?”

However, Stella says there is no problem and proceeds with the transaction.

By the way, two axes…?

Are you referring to the axis I understand?

“Now…Wait a minute.”

He placed his hand on his forehead and posed as if he did not understand the conversation between the two.

Technology in this world is at least modern…

That, too, is a technique from the 1910s.

Unless the house is dismantled and rebuilt

The act of relocating is at an impossible level.

“West?”

“Didn’t Stella just say it was a two-axis?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Relocating means moving and rebuilding, right?”

“It’s a difficult word, but you know it well.”

Stella suddenly started stroking my hair.

It felt good to be stroked on the head, but it still doesn’t make sense in my head.

“Mr. Delville is a biaxial magic specialist.”

“I don’t know what to do with the saintess praising me.”

Then Stella covered her mouth and started to laugh.

Mr. Delville began to laugh loudly.

What…

Could it be possible to even transfer axes with magic…?
