Villainous Husband, the One You’re Obsessed With Is Over There - Chapter 1

Chapter 1

I don’t even know how this happened… but I am now being sold as a bride to the handsome villainous tyrant Emperor in the novel…

If I had been possessed by this novel a little earlier, I would have struggled to avoid getting married no matter what. Well, are there not an infinite number of ways? For instance, dropping a carriage off a cliff and feigning my death.

However, even if the timing was bad, this was too wretched.

I—

“Will you ask God Actilla for protection in order to establish an eternal marriage bond?”

I got possessed while walking down the aisle during the wedding with the villainous Emperor…!

This is a situation where you could not even do anything about it!

Before even being able to try to change the context in the original novel, I shed tears as I was thrown into this state. As I glanced over the veil at the priest, he stared at me as if he was telling me to quickly say ‘Yes.’ Regardless, I could not say no or run away in this cumbersome wedding dress like this. In fact, the answer was already decided, and I had to say something.

“Yes, yes…”

Heuk.

A cry escaped as I mustered my courage to say ‘Yes.’

Now, it was the Emperor’s turn, who was next to me. Still, I could not even glance sideways, fearing that my neck would fly off if I dared to look at him.

‘Ah… You might be wondering if he’s really going to cut my head like that?’

This guy would really cut it.

That is how easily he would behead me, and it would be entirely up to the Emperor’s heart to spare my head or not. Ordinary people like us could not even be judgemental.

‘Anyway, his presence is really overwhelming…’

The weight of the air around him felt alien. Nonetheless, since this is still a wedding, he wouldn’t just cut open a person… right?

“Hm…”

A heavy yet smooth voice could be heard next to me. It was truly a dauntingly captivating voice. Perhaps this voice also played a part in making so many women fall for him, and hang on to all this nonsense? At the same time, I was shivering with the bouquet in hand, waiting for his answer to fall.

Huu—

I’m glad the veil covered my nervousness.

“Before I get bored, shall we do this?”>

Of course, the Emperor next to me did not disappoint. After all, he didn’t utter the marriage vows the same way as everyone else—akin to his rich personality.

‘…Please, end this.’

This moment would definitely go down in the history of weddings. And, obviously, I was so happy to be in the middle of that historical scene like this… Fine. Truthfully, I wasn’t happy in the slightest, on the contrary, I was petrified.

Ugh.

I don’t even know anymore what is going through my head right now though I have to come up with something to somehow get through this situation. I was on the verge of losing my legs. Meanwhile, the priest in front of us seemed to be embarrassed by the Emperor’s unique answer, who was full of personality.

No. No, priest—!

Don’t panic for more than five seconds! What do you take the Emperor’s patience for? Do you want to make this a bloody wedding?!

In the midst of panic, the priest finally opened his mouth.

“W-well then, please exchange your rings…!”

As soon as the silence fell, the priest opened the ring boxes and held them out. When I slowly picked up the ring with trembling hands, there was only one thought spinning in my head at that moment.

‘You can’t drop it. Don’t drop it… You can’t guarantee that the moment it falls, my head and body won’t be attached anymore after five minutes as soon as it falls…’

At the thought, I squeezed the ring as tight as I could with my thumb and index finger before quickly putting it into his hand. At first, I thought it would be rough because he had mastered all kinds of weapons though it was a beautiful hand with gracefully raised joints.

‘This is nothing special. After all, this is fantasy so even if someone told me this hand has only held a pen, I would probably believe it.’

My hand shuddered as I put the ring on.

It seemed that His Majesty the Emperor was still following along with this tedious ceremonial act, seeing him put the ring on my hand like a decent groom.

“Well, then…”

However, that doesn’t guarantee that this person would be as good as he is now in three minutes. It was because the current Emperor of the Actilus Empire could never stand boredom and had a simmering temper.

I shut my eyes, hoping that the wedding would be over soon.

“The kiss of oaths.”

Hearing those words, my eyes narrowed even tighter.

Ha…

Right.

For a wedding, of course, there was… there was such a procedure. Obviously, there was such a procedure in which the groom walks and kisses the bride’s veil… Still, priest, this is just an arranged marriage. Was such a procedure really necessary?

…Are you saying I should kiss this scary guy?

Your Majesty, why do we not skip this procedure in a unique way, just as how you spoke during your oath earlier? Even though I was standing motionless like a rock, my head was filled with all sorts of thoughts when all of a sudden, the veil that was blocking my view was lifted.

‘Oh, my…’

He really wants to do it?

I shut my eyes quickly as I tensed like a defenseless mouse in front of a viper. Still, even though I counted to three, five, and ten, his lips did not come close to me.

‘No way…’

After all, he wants to have a unique wedding without the kiss of the oath? As I thought so, I opened my eyes very quietly but I paused abruptly, startled.

I paused abruptly, startled.

Noted that the chapters for this novel are going to be split in half, which will also lessen the pressure on the translating staff involved. However, they’ll be numbered normally to make things simple. Since splitting into parts like this lessens the pressure on the translator, I’ll update more often to compensate for the length!

It might take a couple of weeks for the chapters to be all reposted again because I’d like to revisit everything and fix some mistakes I’ve made before with magic/fantasy elements and to make the quality higher since I’ve grown and learned a lot more in the past year, so please be patient and understanding! I’ll slowly upload all the chapters gradually until they’re all caught up~!

Thank you as always for your constant support and understanding! ♡
