Chapter 229 A Ring
Derrick\'s complexion turned paler when he heard Ciel\'s question.
He coughed a few more times so he looked like he couldn\'t say anything even though he seemed to want to speak.
Ciel didn\'t care about his reaction because he only cared about his mother, the woman who had lost the bet to him.
What was quite surprising was that the woman\'s reaction didn\'t look so bad, she just looked confused, very different from when Ciel said he wanted her to be his woman.
Perhaps for her it was a very serious insult that she was so angry, but losing a bet was normal for her given her personality that was always in a hurry to decide things.
Basically, she was not that surprised by the fact that she lost the bet.
It was just that the amount she had to pay made it difficult for her to react.
The case would be different if she was someone shameless who could shamelessly walk away after losing a bet without paying at all.
However, she\'s not that kind of woman, she\'s a woman who always does what she says and promises.
After a while, her gaze fell on Ciel\'s face.
And this was not an ordinary gaze or a gaze like wanting to tear Ciel apart like before.
Her gaze this time was more like that she was observing Ciel\'s face.
More precisely, she wanted to see what Ciel\'s face really looked like so that she could think about making a decision.
Of course, when she made such an observation, the conclusion she came to was that Ciel had a very attractive face, able to make most women\'s hearts flutter.
She observed Ciel\'s face for quite a while, but finally gave her an answer.
"Hmph, since you won, I will fulfill my promise, you get what you want now," she said in an indifferent tone that made people take a deep breath.
A famous God like Rebecca, honored by the people with the title of Calamity Knight actually accepted Ciel as her husband.
Although Ciel did have an amazing talent, the problem was that he was still a junior.
Of course, many juniors with outstanding talents and backgrounds married older women, but such cases were usually only for those women who were not so outstanding.
It was already amazing that a junior had managed to marry a Demigod.
It couldn\'t be compared to Rebecca because there were too many Gods who fell in love with her but didn\'t even dare to confess their feelings to her despite the fact that she could be said to be a widow because she had had a partner in the past, which was why she had a son.
It was said that she might be traumatized by her past married life hence she was more fierce when there were men who wanted to be her husband.
Some other rumors say that she was the one who had killed her ex-husband.
"Mom, what nonsense are you saying?" Derrick was finally able to speak.
He forced himself because Rebecca\'s words shook his heart too much.
It wasn\'t just because of his rejection of Ciel, but he personally wasn\'t willing to have his mother become the wife of a man.
"Shut up, it\'s not your turn to comment on that!" Suddenly, Rebecca scolded Derrick in a loud voice.
She was harsh at times, but always cared about him.
Her harsh actions always had a reason, like making him stronger.
At this moment, Derrick realized that she was really scolding him because her gaze made his heart beat hard. He was frightened instantly.
On the other hand, Ciel showed a strange look, not expecting that Rebecca would compromise after observing his face.
He wondered if she wouldn\'t mind after realizing that at least this man had a decent face even though he was extremely annoying in her eyes.
After that, he laughed softly.
"It\'s really a beautiful day, didn\'t expect that I\'d add another wife," he said.
There is nothing wrong with having any number of wives as people can accept even a woman with multiple husbands.
However, that Ciel managed to make Rebecca his wife really made people jealous.
Surprisingly, Rebecca\'s face became slightly red even though her eyes were glaring at Ciel.
It seemed that she was angry but also embarrassed.
"Take this!" Suddenly Ciel threw something at Rebecca.
It landed right on top of her palm.
Apparently, it was a gold ring with beautiful engravings.
It was just an ordinary ring, something Ciel randomly picked up from the Immortal Domain.
"What is this?" Rebecca asked, somewhat confused by the ring.
"It\'s proof of our relationship, wear it on your ring finger," Ciel replied.
He did this on purpose because he thought she was too wild, so she needed something to bind her to, so that she would remember that she was now the Ice Prince\'s wife.
After hearing Ciel\'s answer, Rebecca seemed to blush and it could be seen that her breathing became a little quick.
"Fuck you!" She suddenly cursed Ciel before turning around and flying to the Holy Continent above.
However, contrary to her reaction, she actually did what Ciel asked. She actually put the ring on her ring finger.
Her speed increased drastically after she put the ring on.
Ciel just smiled as he watched her, thinking that teasing her gave him a pleasant sensation.
She was indeed a fierce woman, but that was precisely her appeal.
"Sister Roxanne, let\'s go!" said Ciel to Roxanne who was standing not far from him.
The woman always showed a calm expression, but when her eyes looked at Ciel, Ciel could feel a sharp gaze from her.
Who knew what she was thinking right now.
When they returned to the plane, she walked to the sofa indifferently.
Ciel went over to her, sitting beside her while holding her hand.
"What\'s wrong with you, Sister Roxanne?" he asked gently.
He wondered if she was jealous now that he was adding women right in front of her while they had just started a relationship.
Plus, it was the woman who almost got into a fight with her.
Asked, Roxanne finally looked at Ciel.
"I must admit that you are something, no, it might be more appropriate to say that you are an anomaly. There hasn\'t been a man like you in the history of the Seven Realms," she said.
"Is this a compliment?" asked Ciel, not expecting that Roxanne would say that.
Unfortunately, this time the woman did not answer.
Meanwhile, at the edge of a swimming pool, a pair of charming legs were dangling down, submerged in the water of the pool.
Of course, they were Yelina\'s pair of legs.
The woman was relaxing there in a short dress that was slightly wet from the splashing water.
She was so beautiful that a few strands of her hair blowing in the wind could make one drown in illusions.
Her face only became more and more indescribable with age.
She can practically make even a woman as beautiful as Rebecca inconspicuous.
Her pair of golden eyes were bright yet calm, giving the impression that they could make a madman sane again just by looking into them.
She was actually not alone, there was a young woman standing behind her, wearing a maid outfit.
The woman had long black hair, not particularly beautiful, but sweet.
At first glance, she seemed to be from the village, but obviously no one dared to underestimate her as she managed to become the personal maid of one Yelina, the Princess of Heaven.
In reality, the swimming pool revealed everything that happened under the Holy Continent.
Yelina was not just sitting there relaxing, she was watching Ciel and the others.
She had been watching them since the very beginning, ever since Ciel was blocked by Lydan and the others.
That she was still here was something she did on purpose because she wanted to see firsthand how Ciel resolved the conflict with Lydan and the others in this territory.
He apparently handled that problem with ease, bringing a faint smile to Yelina\'s lips.
It was just that, that Ciel suddenly became Rebecca\'s husband made her frown.
Her maid even showed anger.
She blushed when Ciel asked Rebecca to wear the ring he gave her.
"Miss, this man is really selfish. He came to your place and dared to add a wife, isn\'t he disrespecting you? Now, you have the same man as that fierce woman, I don\'t think this is right," the maid said, trying to advise Yelina.
She was among those who disapproved of Yelina getting engaged to Ciel because she would rather see Yelina become an untouchable woman.
All this time, she had been unable to say much about it because Yelina seemed to have grown fond of Ciel ever since she returned from the Eternal Desert Continent.
She thought there was really no hope to make Yelina forget Ciel. Hence, ehe could not let go of this opportunity to influence Yelina since she did seem distracted.
Unfortunately, Yelina responded to her words by shaking her head.
"Hee\'s always been like this, I know I can\'t change him," she said in a soft voice, actually seeming to completely accept Ciel\'s traits.
The maid could say nothing more but stare at her with a frozen expression and open mouth.
