'You were the one who could have been the sixth.'

'Don't you regret it? “

'It's like you let the opportunity go to face him equally.'

'It was so wise, but sadly stupid.'

Kang Mi-rae heard a faint voice.

Was it the sincerity that came out of herself, or…

In the dark, Kang Mi-rae opened her eyes silently. It was still night. Checking the time, it was 2am. She smiled bitterly.

“What a fool, being nervous like this.”

Yesterday; No, the date has passed, so it was today.

Today was the day she will be married to Yoo ll-han. Finally, she will become his wife. Although she was the fifth wife, she didn't care.

The important thing was the fact that she loved him and that he loved her too.

'I want to see him quickly. I want to hug him. Oh, it won't do. I can't sleep.'

How about trying some magic that allows her to sleep well? No, she couldn't. It had been a long time since sleep wasn't essential for her anyway.

Kang Mi-rae raised her body. On the same bed, the glamorous beauty, Na Yoo-na, who was sleeping right next to her, made some noises and stretched her arms out to her emptied spot.

“Honey…”

“ls it because you like Mr. ll-han so much?”

Although she murmured like she was nagging, there was a smile around Kang Mi-rae's mouth.

Na Yoo-na was a person who only followed her own desires and didn't care much about others, except for Kang Mi-rae.

Even when Na Yoo-na secured a wedding with Yoo ll-han and desperately took the second place, she was so sorry for Kang Mi-rae when the wedding day approached.

'You're really stupid.'

Eventually, the day before the wedding, Na Yoo-na came and asked Kang Mi-rae to hit her with all her might, but how could she hit the bride's face?

Moreover, the one who first dashed to Yoo ll-han was Na Yoo-na, who was helpful to Kang Mi-rae. Na Yoo-na was always more attractive…

She may have felt inferiority due to that fact in the past, but such feelings no longer swayed Kang Mi-rae.

In fact, it had been quite a while since she stopped comparing herself with Na Yoo-na. She even didn't compare herself with others anymore.

'So is Mr. ll-han'

He was always shining on his own. He compared himself with others, sharpened and polished his mind's branches, never shrank back, and achieved everything he wanted to accomplish.

He pretended to reject others, but he always looked after others carefully.

He did not expect something to come back from others but simply gave it with a pure heart, so he could eventually stand on top of all beings.

For Kang Mi-rae, who struggled to be recognized by others and could not do what she really wanted to do, paying attention to his appearance was so dazzling.

“So, you fell in love, too? Anyway, your standard was high.”

“Uh… Uh-huh, Mi-rae.”

“Hah. It's too late to call my name now.”

Mi-rae pressed Yoo-na's nose, which was enviably pretty and soaring, with a little grumpy voice, and left the bed.

The room remained the same as last night when they enjoyed a bridal shower and messed around. She gesture with her fingers in the air with a sigh, and all the messy things were placed into their own places, and the unnecessary objects disappeared.

Not only that: The teapot was filled with water, and it boiled quickly, and it was poured into a cup with tea leaves. Magic allowed time to flow quickly within an extremely narrow range and the tea water cooled in the cup. She summoned it into her hand and drank a sip.

“Fuh.”

The tea was perfect in every way. Of course, it would have been okay to move her hand without using magic and wait for three minutes. But now that she felt more comfortable using magic than moving her body, she didn't even go against her own instincts.

'I have changed a lot, too.'

As Kang Mi-rae learned magic, her world changed. She really liked having changed like this.

However, it was Yoo ll-han that influenced her more than these minor changes.

The only reason she was able to try helping others without thinking about rewards for herself was because of Yoo ll-han. Because she saw him did it.

She thought she had wanted to give him strength. Actually, she was just falling for him.

'So, I wasn't interested in being the sixth from the beginning.'

As she threw her gaze into the distant, wide night sky spreading out of the window, she muttered without anyone knowing.

'Yeah. I didn't need anything like that.'

If she had accepted a different fate at that time, many people would have expected it.

Maybe she would have become something great that can't be compared to the status of the fifth wife of God, making her a being equal to Yoo ll-han. That way, she would just remain as someone who has an interest in him.

Kang Mirae wanted to be like him, and as a result, she was confident that she helped a lot in building a new world. At least, Yoo ll-han said so.

“That's why he doesn't do weird tricks to me.”

Blue mana radiated. From the moment she woke up, the mana that had built up quickly covered her whole body and the surrounding area. She expelled the inner force which interfered with her mind, perhaps along with all uninvited guests outside, with a strong spirit.

“Woosh…”

Her mind was clearer than ever, and the unrecorded noise disappeared without a trace, just as it had appeared.

There was a rough estimate of their identity, but she decided not to find it now.

Yoo ll-han already paid attention and researched about it, so she had to tell him later. No, she thought now was also okay.

'I want to meet him.'

They were in the same sky palace. They even saw each other several times a day. But at this moment, she could not help but miss him.

She could go to see him with just a flick of a finger, but she decided to hold herself back. After they get married, she could ask him to spoil her as much as she wanted.

Before her, there had been a story about seniors who married Yoo ll-han. Her newlywed life would be very sweet and happy.

“Mi-rae, I want a cup of tea too.”

While Kang Mi-rae imagined her newlywed life, Na Yoo-na rose from the rustling bed, speaking in a baby-like voice.

She was rubbing her eyes with one hand to see if she had fully awakened, but it was pretty cute.

“Aren't you sleeping? Why?”

“Something strange happened, and I woke up. It seems like I can hear a voice in my ear constantly cursing Mr. Il-Han, I woke up to get rid of it, but it's already gone.”

Of course, Na Yoo-na seemed to have just felt it, too. Kang Mirae shrugged and said, “I kicked it out. It may not be the end of it. “

“Even you got uneasy about it? If you can't still meet Mr. ll-han, I'm going to call him over here.”

“There is no need to be anxious. It can't be solved even though Mr. ll-han appeared here right now. I am here. Even if there is an unstable element among the unrecorded things, it can never endanger US.”

Instead, things other than them might become dangerous, but that was another thing Yoo ll-han was preparing to stop.

“Mr. ll-han is always prepared, after all.”

“Oh, look at how happy you are. I'm so excited about my beloved Mi-rae's marriage today. Ayayayaya- Sorry, sorry.”

Na Yoo-na, who was scolded yesterday for teasing her a lot, was being scolded again for using her short tongue. Kang Mi-rae freed her with a snorting smile, and then she made Na Yoo-na's share of tea.

“Make it sweet.”

“Shutup.”

“Will Uncle Chan come with auntie?”

“Since they seem to be relaxed after retirement, there must be no reason for them not to come.”

Kang Mi-rae laughed a little while thinking of her parents. Her father, who had been obsessed with expanding his business for a lifetime and had the same desire for honor, could not get used to the changing world.

As the Earth suffered several cataclysms, the company's business size was reduced to less than half, and it was nearly wiped out after the Earth's great deportation.

Eventually, her father, who returned to Earth and abandoned all existing businesses, entrusted Mi-rae to the eldest son, retired, and lived a quiet retirement life with her mother.

When Mi-rae thought about it, she laughed.

“By the way, I might tell them not to give business cards to the higher-ranked beings.”

“You can just shrug your shoulders for the rest of your life.”

Na Yoo-na said those words unconsciously, breathing over her own teacup. Kang Mi-rae looked at her friend, who was like a painting even with such small gestures, and asked, “Aren't you scared?”

The word 'the rest of your life' had caught her heart.

“About the death of my parent… my grandfather?”

“Yeah.”

“What are you scared of?” asked Na Yoo-na as she tilted her head.

“They are not going to disappear completely anyway. They will be reincarnated in this world. After all, Mr. Il-Han made it that way.”

“lt is so, but still.”

“lt's a kind world. The world made by my hon-by Mr. Ilhan. I like it.”

Na Yoo-na smiled happily, drank a sip of tea, and said, “l’m not scared because I know there is no real farewell.”

“But all the memories will disappear. You will live as a new person.”

“Oh, I don't have to live with a reborn grandfather as a grandfather, but I'm glad that he's alive. I just need to know if he's alive.”

“Yoo-na, you sometimes say things that make me wonder if you're really stupid, or just wise.”

“I said that Mr. ll-han was a wise man.”

“Pffttt.”

And Kang Mi-rae burst into laughter at those words. After laughing for a long time, she wiped the tears from her eyes and nodded.

“Yes, I don't intend to live with my reborn father, so I think it's just okay.”

“Yup, yup. If the moment comes when everyone wants to live desperately, everyone can just transcend and become a higher-ranked being.”

“Were you desperate?”

“Hee, what about you?” Na Yoo-na asked with a funny face. Kang Mi-rae replied with a laugh.

“l'm a woman who drilled a hole in the dimension to meet a man.”

“Bullshit.”

This time it was Na Yoo-na's turn to laugh. Kang Mi-rae shrugged as she looked at her. She said it like a joke, but her heart hadn't changed at all since then.

She was ready to do anything for Yoo ll-han.
