Verse 410: Happiness

The reward for saving Lord Barton was far beyond Norman's imagination.

His original greatest wish was just to hope that Lord Barton could help him marry Yuna, and for Lord Barton, this was a very simple matter - although Yuna was not Lord Barton's child, Lord Barton had extremely high power over life and death over the villagers of the entire Ashley Village.

The words of Lord Barton, who controls the fields and is privately armed, are the rules of Ashley Village, as long as Lord Barton is interested, villagers like Yuna will hardly have any choice, and Norman also wants to take advantage of this to make it difficult to marry him, but what he didn't expect was that without Lord Barton opening his mouth, this matter seemed to be about to become: after he defeated the murderous orcs and saved Lord Barton, he became a hero in the village. Like many stories told by the bard Sowell who passes through the village every year, beautiful women are love heroes, and Yuna is no exception, after that incident, this passionate girl came directly to the door by herself, and in the case of Lang's concubine, the relationship between the two parties progressed rapidly, and within a few days it even reached the point of talking about marriage.

At this time, Norman's biggest concern came again, and that was his family situation.

His family situation is really bad, there is no woman in the family, and there is not enough labor, only him and old Norman. It can be said that in the whole village of Ashley, the Norman family is the most deplorable family except for serfs.

Yuna is such a big beauty, and she wants to marry her so many good guys, will her parents agree to her marrying into such a family?

This is exactly what Norman fears the most, and it is what Old Norman worries about.

Norman and Yuna's recent private encounters didn't escape the eyes of the passer-by.

Of course, old Norman also hoped that his son would marry such a good girl as Yuna—behold, her thighs were so thick, her arms were so powerful, and her waist was so strong, if the Norman family had such a hostess, then I believe that life would be better and better in the future.

But old Norman also thought about the difficulty, and as a person who had come before, he knew much more about this problem than Norman.

But unlike Norman, who has little experience in life, old Norman came up with a solution, which is to sell himself to Lord Barton: without an old bone like himself who will become a burden in the future, and can still get "a lot of money", Norman's family situation will be different immediately, and perhaps Yuna's parents will agree to let their good daughter marry Norman.

This is the only way that old Norman can think of, to sacrifice him alone to achieve an infinitely better future for the Norman family.

But things didn't get to this point in the end, and suddenly there was a huge turn - because of Norman's heroic deeds, Lord Patton directly promoted him to his own knight.

Grandpa Patton used to have a knight, but now that knight has died in the hands of the orcs, and he can't even find the bones, so he should have been dragged back by the orcs to eat.

This great happiness knocked Norman unconscious, and he couldn't sleep for several days.

This is a knight!

Aside from Lord Barton and the chaplain of the church, the knight was the most honorable man in the entire village of Ashley.

As a knight, he doesn't have to do farm work, he can wear clothes without holes, he has subordinates to command, he has bread to eat every day, and he can whip anyone who is unhappy, and even kill a serf—— the knight before him did such a thing.

And Norman has now inherited the position......

It's a complete step to the top.

This great happiness made Norman in a trance for several days before finally accepting it.

Norman and Yuna already had the intention of having a concubine, and after he ascended to the sky, everything he had worried about before came to naught, and he didn't have to worry about anything anymore, and soon he ushered in his wedding to Yuna.

Yes, wedding, Norman didn't expect to have such a day himself.

He thought that he would never get married in his life, but even if he was lucky, a girl was willing to marry him, that is, like other people in the village, it would be a verbal marriage wish, and a wedding would never be possible for them as villagers. But he did not expect that now he not only had a wedding, but that his wedding could be held in the church, by the noble priest himself—— as a knight of Lord Barton, he did have such a right.

Saved Lord Barton's life, became a hero, became a knight, and married Yuna......

All of this was something that Norman had never dreamed of before, but now it was happening one by one, and it was so dreamy that on the day of the wedding, Norman stood in the church and couldn't believe it was real, staring blankly around.

It is the tallest building in the village, with a high ceiling that is five or six meters above the ground.

Innermost in the church was a simple statue of God the Father, with a desk in front of it, and the old priest was standing behind it, smiling and looking at Norman kindly.

Norman was standing at the desk, and on the chairs on either side of it were the people who had come to the wedding today.

Sitting in the front row was Lord Barton.

The noble lord, who had almost lost his life to an orc attack, had recovered by this time, and the scars on his body were not visible at all—of course, he himself had not suffered any injuries. He was looking at Norman with a smile on his face, wondering if he was sincerely happy for his savior, or happy that he had found such a valiant knight.

Behind Lord Barton sat old Norman, and then there was no one left, and on the other side there were a few more people, Yuna's parents, brothers, and so on, but these people were not as smiling as Lord Barton, but stiffened: it was not that they were not unhappy with Norman, but because they had never sat down in the church.

In the old days, when the big guys came to church to worship in groups, they would stand, take the sacrament and leave, who had ever sat down on these clean chairs, not to mention the presence of Master Barton now, which made them extremely nervous, and they all stood there stiffly like wood, and all of them were on their knees in front of them, all motionless, not to mention how uncomfortable they were.

And at the door of the church, Yuna was walking in step by step.

Norman leaned sideways and watched his bride walk towards him.

The woman he loved so much finally made his eyes temporarily break away from his blankness, and he looked at each other obsessively.

Behold, how beautiful his bride is today!

Today, she even changed her clothes, with many fewer holes on her body, and a few bright colors on the fabric, which made her already beautiful even more glamorous, completely occupying Norman's sight and heart.

From today on, she is her wife, and she has become a knight, and her life will be infinitely bright.

Happiness and a better tomorrow are coming to him!

Norman thought excitedly, but the strange fluctuation in his heart returned.

He seemed to have forgotten something, as he had sensed several times before, but unlike the previous ones, the fluctuations were particularly drastic and noticeable.

It was like a big drum, beating in his heart, louder and louder.

It was as if a beast was about to rush out at any moment!
