Ceilie couldn't take it anymore and finally looked at Creige. "Why didn't you stop her!?"
Creige scratched his head as he slowly explained. "I actually didn't know that was how it was done. I have never been to a wedding before, nor did I ever get a proper explanation on how the ceremony worked. It was not until I felt the connection between us that I realized what had been done. So in part, this is also my fault. I did not think Kana would perform the binding ceremony. I had originally come here to get some cold steel ore which I had found an abundance of it in the mountain, in the cave she was evolving in. I did not wish to disturb her evolution, so I sat and kept guard. She popped out of her egg and did some weird pose with nothing on. It was then she started calling me her husband."
Ceilie could actually picture the whole thing in her head and knew Creige was not lying. It was definitely something that Kana would say and do. "Alright, I believe you. I am sure you must know by now, but Kana is not like any other beastkin."
"Mmm, I know. She is of the dragon race as I am from the demon race. We are both long lived species that only dedicate themselves to one person for all eternity. Now that she has married me, we are bound together. But right now, she is too young. She needs to experience life before she even begins to think about marriageable duties. I myself live in the kingdom of Stone Hammer. I run a weapons shop there. She can visit me any time she pleases. Even if she decides to come with me, I will not turn her away. I will uphold my vows and not go against my ways. Once we demons marry, we will do whatever we can for our spouse. Whether we love them or not. I do not know what else to say." Creige let out another sigh. He never thought he would be in such a situation. Looking at Ceilie, who was continually glaring at him like a father who was losing his daughter, it was a strange feeling indeed.
"Alright, I understand. As of now, Kana is far too young to be living with any man. It doesn't matter if she is a beastkin or not. When she is of age, she may live with you. Until then, if she wishes to visit you, I will be there to chaperone." Ceilie turned to Kana, who was still hugging Creige's neck. "Do you understand, Kana?"
"As long as my husband is my husband, it is fine. He did see my sexy body." Kana's words caused both Creige and Ceilie to roll their eyes. 'What does she mean, sexy body?'
"Okay, then that is settled. Kana, let your husband go finish what he was doing. When we visit the Stone Hammer Kingdom in the future, you can go visit him. We also have to finish our mission as well." Ceilie could tell that Creige was in a hurry. She figured he must have an important job to do. She would not know until later just how obsessed he is with forging and how Kana would become just as obsessed with it as well.
"Mmm! Then, my husband, I will come and visit you soon!" Kana smiled and grabbed Creige's face, turned it towards her, planted a big fat kiss on his lips, and hugged him tightly before hopping down from his arms. Her cheeks were rosy as she giggled and ran over to Ceilie's side.
The handsome man who was just taken advantage of was frozen stiff. It actually took him a minute to recompose himself. "Ahem… Then I will see you when you visit. Ceilie was it? Please take care of her. Actually..." After thinking for a moment, Creige walked over to Kana and placed his hand on top of her head. "[Mark]!" A bright light was emitted from his hand and then enveloped Kana. "This will allow me to teleport directly to her if she is close to losing her life. I will be able to sense it through our bond now that we are married. Our marriage may have been forced, but as her husband, I will protect her with my life. So Ceilie, please take good care of her."
After he said this, he ruffled Kana's hair and floated up into the sky back towards the cave. Ceilie stared at the disappearing figure and couldn't help but sigh. "Kana, you do nothing and find yourself such a handsome good man."
"You can't have him!" Kana suddenly yelled out.
"I do not want some old lolicon!" Ceilie yelled back.
The two were so loud that Creige almost fell out of the sky when he heard what they were saying. "Is this the end of my peaceful days? Well… It is better than being set up with some random pig woman…" Creige looked at his finger and shook his head. "I guess I will have at least ten more years before I have to worry. Now to get what I came for."
Creige walked into the cave and saw the eggshell Kana left behind and sighed. He waved his hand, and a portal appeared in front of him. He then gathered up the eggshell and sent it through the portal, saying only one thing. "Make sure she eats this."
Kana, who just had a pile of eggshell dropped on her, was not happy at all. She rubbed her head and looked at the eggshell while pouting. "Do I have to eat it…?"
"Yes, eat it. It will help you grow stronger." Ceilie was trying her best not to laugh and pinch the puffy cheeks on Kana's face. Her new form was just too adorable!
