My Husband Hides His Beauty Chapter 16

Chapter 16

The Battle with the Giant Ants had resulted in tens of Denias as extra income.

If they spend money, they can save time too.

That's why the wedding ceremony will be ahead of schedule.

Right now in Halstead Castle everyone is busy for the ceremony.

At some point, the ceremony looked like it was an exorcism ritual rather than a wedding. Though if you think about it, it was a ritual where two families kept their promise 10 years ago in front of the gods and demons.

It may seem similar to a normal wedding but it isn't.

“If you keep making the same mistakes you won't be able to get married.”

“I get nervous every time I do it, one more time.”

She tried putting the dress on her.

This wasn't a normal wedding dress.

'It must be more expensive compared to other wedding dresses.'

All the wedding organizers unanimously thought so.

Leticia's dress was more than just the dresses of aristocratic ladies that went to family events or special occasions, it was a cute and elegant dress.

Of course, Leticia had never worn this kind of dress.

Because of that, she was so amazed when they received her warmly as they were adjusting the measurements of her body.

“After the ceremony, I'll fix this dress nicely for you to wear it during the picnic.”

The maids said and examined the dress carefully.

They thought about stuff like 'is it the right size or is there enough mobility?'

When she wore the dress while being surrounded, she realized that this really is a big event.

I felt as if I became the heroine within a play.

'This is awesome, this time—!'

Leticia vowed to wear this dress for herself.

'Don't panic, don't be so nervous. It'll all be okay.'

After that, the fitting of the dress was done. The maids, in turn, took out the gloves for her hands.

“What a cute wedding glove!”

“Isn't that too cute?”

After chattering, one of the servants suddenly said,

“Oh, come to think of it, what happens at the wedding ceremony?”

The words stirred everyone up.

“Oh, yeah! Are you doing that thing?”

“They must, right?”

What do they mean about 'that'? What exactly are we doing?

They explained it to Leticia, who was totally oblivious about what they were talking about.

Turns out, there's an important thing they should do at the wedding.

It is tying the wrists of two people with a string. This means that they have become a part of each other's destiny.

“The Lord will finally take off his gloves and show his hands?”

“It's bound to happen.”

The chatter didn't stop.

Surprisingly, everyone said they had never seen Erden's bare hands.

He said that his hands are too ugly. Just as he said, he never reveals himself in front of others.

“Hmm, is that so? I see.”

Leticia calmly retorted and passed.

But in her head, her imagination was running wild.

For example: How scary will the hand look like? What is its' complexion? Does anything pop up out of its hands? Is it even real?

All those kinds of questions floated in her mind.

Leticia trembled.

'But I'm glad I found out about it anyway as I can prepare myself for it.'

It wasn't only Leticia and maids who came up about the holy ceremony.

In the evening, someone had tapped the door carefully. It was Erden, he said something afar.

“Wife, there's actually a ceremony called a wedding ceremony.”

“Ah, I know that.”

Leticia said readily.

What's his purpose for visiting me? Is he warning me?

“Erden, I'm fine! Really!”

“Is that so? Well, my wife is the one who killed the Giant Ants Army after all.”

Erden believed Leticia's words straight out, he looked at her with a more relaxed aura.

He said it boastfully.

'Now that you say that, I have to do my best every single time.'

Leticia had been reading the Monster book since that day.

Finally, it's the wedding day.

The chapel door of Halstead Castle is wide open.

The round ceiling and walls were painted white.

Precious flowers of the North gathered together and had been decorated in every facet, and let out a vibrant aura due to its colorful colors.

Leticia wore her wedding dress and the veil to ward off evil.

Tingling.

The village children walked on the aisle while waving small bells.

Leticia entered. Wearing her wedding dress, and holding Alexa's arm while walking alongside her.

Erden is already standing in front of the altar.

In the North, the groom wears black robes. So his appearance didn't change that much from his usual self.

He was just the familiar Monster Lord.

'You can do it.'

Leticia made a vow once again.

She didn't want to get Erden feeling anxious seeing his wife screaming or sitting down abruptly because her legs became weak.

In time, the solemn voice of the old priest resounded.

“In the presence of all the gods and demons, the Halstead and the Grey are here to keep their promise of 10 years ago.”

Leticia alerted.

'You have to do it right.'

It was not long before the wedding ceremony began.

Leticia looked at Erden.

Erden hesitated for a moment at that moment. Even though she intentionally visited him in advance and gave her his hand, she hesitated when he tried to show his hands.

“You said you'll be okay.”

Leticia said in a detached manner. Before Erden took off all his gloves, he turned his head sideways quickly.

Does he have twenty fingers? I'm ready to accept that.

Does he have tentacles, webbed hands, clams? I'm also ready to accept that.

No hands at all? I'm so ready for that, too.

I was prepared for everything internally, on every occasion that I am not so easy to panic.

But when Erden took off his gloves.

She was surprised to the point where her determination was overshadowed.

Her eyes grew as big as fish. She almost gasped, but luckily she contained herself.

He looked calm somehow.

'As expected of my wife—.'

He had an aura of relief.

But on the other hand, Leticia's heart was beating madly.

Let's calm down.

Leticia quickly turned away.

She pretended to look ahead, however, she had no choice but to keep glancing at Erden.

Even though she was prepared for it, she ended up surprised.

But it wasn't Leticia's fault.

She wasn't surprised just now because it is that terrible.

Rather, it is the opposite.

His hands were so pretty.

She had seen pretty hands several times. Her cousins' hands looked beautiful like a sculpture of marble.

But the beauty of his hands was way too different compared to those.

His hands were big, long, and porcelain white. Even his slightly raised tendon looked elegant.

He looked like her next-door neighbor who she had a crush on when she was younger, or the handsome guy who played music. He gave off that kind of feeling.

When the priest was tying the ribbon, his earlobes reddened.

'What the hell is this?'

Leticia is drowned in confusion.

What? What? What?

“It is a proclamation to the Holy Spirit.”

Even after the priest untied the ribbon, Leticia couldn't collect her wits together.

But the most shocking part was his hands weren't like that of a monster.

Yet you're hiding it with the fear of not wanting to scare others?

'What the hell happened?'

I just can't comprehend it.

It's so weird that my head went crazy as I tried to keep myself calm.

'What the hell is wrong with Erden's hands?'

There was a fierce debate that was mobilizing all over her head.

In the end, there is only one answer to that.
