I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband

226 – Part 2 Episode 54, Appreciation Plaque

Tsunami damage is recovering at a rapid pace thanks to the full support of the Ministry of Education.

It is said that they are currently mobilizing builders from around the world to restore the coastal city so that it can become as beautiful as before.

More than 1,000 builders visit the Principality of Haif every day…

The houses are being built quickly because the materials are all provided by the church on site.

Actually, I think it would have been harder to clean up the destroyed buildings than to build a house.

To dismantle a building, you just have to destroy it with magic.

…It must have been a great way to relieve stress…

I can destroy them all with fire magic and ice magic.

Anyway, is it because the Church of Christ and the Principality of Heif are countries that are loyal to each other?

The level of support is different from that of other countries.

It seems that the Church of Christ and the Principality of Haif have been close together since ancient times, so they took good care of each other.

So, of course, their relationship is good, and their relationship has never been disturbed.

Is there anything better than smooth relations between countries?

I hope we can continue to maintain a good relationship in the future.

Then one day.

As I was lying on a beach chair on the rooftop terrace and looking at the sky, someone opened the door and came inside.

Since I have to work again starting next week, I’m trying to rest well without regrets, but who cares?

I took off the sunglasses I was wearing and put them down on the table next to me.

“What, what’s going on?”

I thought it was someone, but it turned out to be Dave.

This guy must have been swinging a sword in the yard on the first floor just a moment ago, right?

The voice was so loud that even if I tried, I couldn’t.

“Come downstairs. People from the Principality of Heif have come to visit.”

“In the Principality of Heif? To me?”

what.

Did I have an accident in the Principality of Haif?

At that time, I remembered something I had forgotten.

Didn’t Etheria once buy a bottle of water at a small store she stopped by while taking a walk?

At that time, the plastic water bottles sold were manufactured goods.

Etheria just bought it without knowing anything.

Is that really why you came?

I’m worried because there’s a kangaroo again.

I swallowed my saliva and came down to the first floor.

At the entrance, three men in suits were waiting for me.

As expected, the suit is cool…

The priests of our church have formal uniforms, so they rarely have the opportunity to wear such suits.

by the way…

There doesn’t seem to be any particular atmosphere of protest.

He is holding something that looks like a large box in his hand.

I guess I just guessed and thought in vain.

“Oh!! Your Majesty the Hero!”

As soon as he saw me, the bald man standing in front smiled brightly and responded favorably.

One by one, the people behind me smiled brightly and I bowed my head.

“Ah… hello… I heard you are from the Principality of Heif…”

“Yes! That’s right! I apologize for being late because I stopped by the church headquarters first!”

“An apology… Anyway, what’s going on at my house?”

The Duchy of Haif and the Hellenic Church are on good terms.

So, it makes sense for ambassador-level people to go back and forth to other countries and give each other gifts or have conversations and say thank you.

These people said they went to the church headquarters first.

Well, it’s not the main purpose, but I stopped by here because I had some business to run, right?

If you were looking for our saint, you would have come from the church headquarters, not here.

“How could I not come? Your Majesty the Brave is a hero of our Principality of Heif!”

“yes?!”

When I asked what brought them here, they said they were heroes to me.

Everyone nodded and tilted their heads in understanding.

“We heard that as soon as His Majesty arrived, he purified the gymnasium and began life-saving activities. Is that true?”

“Yes… I guess so…?”

“You personally treated the lives of about 200 people who might have died there with recovery magic?”

“Uh… 200 people?”

Because we took turns doing it, we couldn’t remember how many people we saved.

However, it seems that I saved more than 200 people by drinking magic potions and using recovery magic diligently.

200 people…

How many people died in this tsunami?

If I hadn’t gone there and saved people, the death toll would have almost doubled.

“Among them, the lord’s children are also included!”

“Ah… I think I heard that before treatment.”

A little child who was about to die in a very terrible way.

He seemed to be about 9 years old, and I remember feeling so sorry for him that I cast a recovery spell on him as soon as I brought him in.

What did they say?

Did you say you were crushed by a water tank that fell over during the tsunami?

All of Onom’s bones were broken and blood was gushing out.

Wow… It’s so grotesque when I try to think of it again.

Let’s not think about it.

“The lord’s son also wanted to accompany us… but he was in a state of convalescence and could not come, so we came here to visit the warrior on behalf of Yeongsik.”

“Hmm… I guess I know what it is.”

So, the reason they came this time was to say thank you.

I didn’t come to protest because I bought 500ml bottled water!

“So! The reason I came today is because I wanted to give your Majesty a plaque of appreciation!”

The tension is strangely high.

Seeing how you called me a hero and all, it seems like you really have a grateful heart.

A thank you plaque.

I’ve received medals, but I’ve never received an appreciation plaque or trophy.

I have only received medals where all medals are given.

I couldn’t even imagine receiving a medal for actually ranking high.

Listing…

I have never received a regular attendance award or a perfect attendance award.

Oh, have you ever received an encouragement award for a book report before?

I remember being very happy because the prize included a cultural gift certificate worth 5,000 won.

*

The men from the Principality of Heif handed over a plaque of appreciation and immediately returned.

They are working-level officials involved in politics, but now that the situation is so severe, it seems they have to go to the field and lead and do the work.

A politician who not only gives instructions from high up, but also takes action himself.

When I thought about it like that, I felt a little moved.

The church headquarters…

uh…

They even sent me to work hard, so I told them everything.

It’s the same thing that overworks the officials of the Church Bureau and the Principality of Heif.

After they returned, I wandered around wondering where to put the appreciation plaque, and found a good place.

A small display case by our front door.

The display case was an expensive display case that could even control humidity.

The previous owner bought it and returned to its hometown without using it.

It was currently being used as a place to store appropriate items.

Two watches from my favorite luxury watch company and alcohol as a gift.

There was also wine that my father-in-law had brought for Luna to drink on her wedding day.

I don’t know why you left it in my house.

Alcohol is not my thing, so leave it alone.

I took the two watches that were lying on top, placed them next to me, and left a thank you note.

This appreciation plaque is said to be made by carving out a large crystal.

Due to the circumstances, I didn’t make it extravagant, but I heard that the large crystal used was a very precious crystal.

You can just do it cheaply.

It is said that the King of the Principality ordered special preparations.

Oh, the Duchy of Haif is not a duchy ruled by a duke.

It is a principality because it is a country with different kings.

Did you say that the title Gongwang is given when a king also holds the title of duke of his home country?

Therefore, it is correct to call it the Kingdom of Kong rather than the Principality, but it was shortened because it would make the name of the Kingdom of Heif Gong Kingdom strangely difficult to pronounce.

“The Principality of Heif is better than the Kingdom of Heif.”

Or something like a republic.

With that in mind, I carefully placed the shiny thank-you note in the display case.

It looks really pretty when you put it in the display case like this.

Because it is crystal, it has a high light transmittance, so when light passes through, light is reflected inside and sparkles.

Luna might like it.

Because it twinkles like a star.

I cleaned up the inside of the display case and walked to Luna’s room.

The intention was to bring Luna out and show her.

However, as I was about to enter the room, I heard Stella’s voice from inside.

And another voice appeared to be my older brother.

“Hmm…”

It’s not a good idea to eavesdrop on other people’s conversations, but my curiosity got the better of me.

So, I listened carefully, and Stella was talking about my brother’s girlfriend.

A girlfriend who is 13 years younger than me.

Stella seemed a little happy that she and I were similar in age.

I’m sorry for unnecessarily prolonging the work of my brother who traveled far to help with flood damage.

To make matters worse, wouldn’t you say it’s an attack?

Your brother is probably having a hard time right now because his mind is full.
