"Honeymoon?"
Fisher blinked, chewing on this somewhat unfamiliar word, while Elizabeth nodded with a smile and said,
"Yes, although we haven’t officially announced our marriage to everyone yet, it wouldn’t hurt to go out for a bit beforehand. I’ve already thought of a place, the Royal private beach outside of Saint Nali. Plus, my birthday is coming up, so going there to relax a bit wouldn’t be a bad choice."
Ah, they’re also announcing the marriage?
Upon mentioning this, Fisher suddenly recalled the words Rafael had spoken to him before leaving the South Continent. She said she wouldn’t want to suddenly hear the news of Elizabeth getting married while she’s comfortably in the South Continent...
Fisher shuddered, quite concerned about his safety in the upcoming period.
"I don’t have a problem with that; it sounds nice to go out and you can relax a bit. But since you’ve been after me for five years, and... overall, isn’t announcing my return a bit too sudden?"
What Fisher didn’t say after "and" was something both he and Elizabeth understood but hadn’t discussed in detail after his return — that Fisher still had connections with other ladies.
Not just Moli from five years ago, but even Valentina whom he had just met before returning was evident enough. Yet, after returning, Elizabeth seemed in no hurry to inquire, which was unexpected for Fisher.
By his estimation, even if Elizabeth wouldn’t do anything excessive to him, she might symbolically imprison him, but now it seemed this "imprisonment" wasn’t strict at all.
He could even sneak out yesterday, and the punishment was to pay "duke’s tax" fiercely once. Now Elizabeth wanted to take him on a honeymoon by the sea...
This made Fisher unsure of Elizabeth’s true intentions, leading him to ask tentatively.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing Fisher’s question, Elizabeth just smiled confidently. She supported her cheek with one hand and used the other hand to dominantly pinch Fisher’s chin to make him face her,
"Sudden? This is my private matter; if I declare it, who dares to say ’no’? Compared to that, I want to know more about this strange... ability of yours? Is it related to the state you were in four and a half years ago when you disappeared? You have no idea how worried I was when I saw the message you sent back; I was so afraid you’d really leave me..."
At the end, the hand pinching Fisher’s chin transformed into a gentle caress like a spring breeze, and her hollow eyes slightly fell, as if unwilling to relive the pain of that time.
"I thought you preferred me never to be discovered by others, only to be seen by you. Haven’t you said that before?"
"Of course, it’s wonderful that only I can discover you, see you. But on second thought, that seems somewhat not ideal..."
Elizabeth subtly emphasized "I alone" since she knew she wasn’t the only one who could see Fisher. For example, the giant bird man in the church earlier?
Fisher also understood the deeper meaning in her words, driven by survival instincts, he followed Elizabeth’s words, asking,
"Why is it not ideal?"
"Well, because humans are social creatures. Although I’d love to lock you away forever with me, that’s an idealistic thought. Being isolated would surely make you uncomfortable, even if you were willing to be locked up by me, you would inevitably feel this way; it’s hard to sustain... Another reason is, what if we have children later on?"
Elizabeth pondered worriedly, something Fisher rarely saw her express since they parted ways.
The last time Fisher saw that expression was when she struggled during summer break, unable to secretly meet Fisher, merely exchanging letters.
Perhaps it’s that kind of dilemma and contemplation.
"If our children are born in the future, how should we explain their identity to the world? Should we say their father is unknown? Even with my teachings, when they encounter the outside world, they’d feel confused and angry. Moreover, what if they can’t see you as well? I don’t want them to feel like me, having a father but experiencing nothing... I want them to grow up showered in our love, becoming better, healthier, and more complete than either of us."
Hearing this, Fisher understood Elizabeth’s thoughts, surprised that she’d be troubled by such matters.
So even though they were past the age for such concerns, Fisher suddenly found Elizabeth in front of him incredibly adorable,
"Soon, this state won’t last long, it’s just necessary for now."
"Really, that’s good to hear..."
Elizabeth smiled, Fisher extended his hand intending to caress her cheek, but halfway there, she gently grasped his wrist, seemingly worried about his hand approaching her eyes.
