3rd person POV
After getting rid of all the djinns in the world, Kim Hajin, who everyone was looking at with pure shock still, moved back to his table and reunited with Rachel, Evandel, and their parents.
"My apologies for the trouble, everyone, since the 'trouble' has gotten rid of, why don't we enjoy the party as we were supposed to?", Hajin said casually.
And that they did, at least, for the part of going back to whatever they were doing before, 'apparently'.
After all, no one would defy Hajin after seeing the fate of others that tried to do so laid before them just now.
However, no matter how much they appear to do so 'apparently', they were still in utter shock, disbelief, and terror. Shock because something unimaginable had happened, and due to the information that had been revealed to them by the System. Disbelief because they didn't want to believe it, especially for the Noblemen, as they didn't want to believe that there was someone so... 'superior'... someone they couldn't reach.
And terror, of course, was the result of both the previous emotions combined. Pure terror due to the display of power that had happened in front of them.
Yet... in the entire building filled with such an atmosphere, there was a single table that completely contradicted that same atmosphere.
"Daddy~! That was so cool!!", Evandel shouted, her eyes sparkling as if there were stars inside them.
"You had to make it so grand, huh, Dear... but I guess it can't be helped. The system has already revealed a lot, so there's no point in not doing this either...", Rachel exclaimed with a sigh.
"Haha, I'm glad you like it, Sweetheart~", Hajin said to Evandel while smiling, and then shifted to Rachel, "But of course, getting rid of annoying bugs that can cause future 'trouble' has its own benefits, don't you think so too, my lovely Rachel?"
"Yes yes...", Rachel said while giving him a blank stare. She couldn't even react much to it because of how used she has gotten to this stuff.
.
..
...
Afterwards, the party went 'apparently' normal, and everyone returned to their homes like they were supposed to. Hajin and Rachel, too, went back to their home at Cube, while their parents said they had to go somewhere due to 'business'.
Evandel, of course, had an exciting day, but she was leaning on Hajin's shoulder as he held her, asleep due to tiredness.
While she was physically immortal, of course, there was only so much a child-like personality could handle mentally. However, as soon as they returned home, to their surprise, Evandel woke up instantly and ran to the living room.
Based on the noise that came off, she was probably in a hurry to not miss her favorite anime, which aired around this time on a daily basis.
The rest of the day went like usual, Evandel watching her favorite shows on their huge TV, along with Hajin and Rachel.
Although, Evandel was quite focused in her shows, so Rachel and Hajin didn't miss out the opportunity to get a little 'romantic' behind their daughter's back.
"Mmmh~", came out a silent moan from Rachel, going unheard by Evandel as the little girl was too focused on the TV.
Kisses, cuddles, and biting on each other's ears and alike occasionally, they loved each other's warm embrace.
It was a comfort family moment... although, it would be more fitting to say it was a usual day for them, because every day was filled with little wholesome moments like this.
After all, neither Hajin nor Evandel had much to do. Although they still attended classes, but it was optional, really, since they didn't need to attend any as long as their grades and rank were fine.
Though, even if they got too lazy and intentionally make their rank drop, it's not like anyone would do anything... no, they were too afraid to even think of doing anything. Everyone at this point knew who the strongest person among them was, so no one wanted to play with their fate.
Now, back to the current scenario, skipping a few minutes later, Evandel was laying on the couch, sleeping soundly with a smile on her face.
It wasn't like sleeping on the sofa would have side effects on her body, since it was magically designed to bring as much confines as possible to anyone laying on it.
Hajin and Rachel looked at her, then looked at themselves, smiled, and went to the balcony for a while to enjoy the night view. It was a clear sky, stars shining brightly in the sky along with the beautiful moon.
"Shall we go to our room, Rachel~?", Hajin asked her gently while slowly caressing her face.
"... Yes~", Rachel answered turning around to give him a quick kiss on the lips and ran towards her room, Hajin slowly following from behind.
Soon, erotic sounds filled the room. Clearly, they both had their entire night to enjoy... a very 'special' night indeed.
"Mhmm~ r-r-right there, Hajin...~~", Rachel exclaimed, but every word other than the moans barely escaped her mouth.
"Hnghh!! It feels so good~!"
"...Rachel~!"
That night, only moans filled the completely sound-proof room, moans that were like melody to Hajin's ears.
The night was still young, however, and they had a long way to go....

*Long Time Skip*
3rd Person POV
It was a special day for all residences of England... no, not just them, it was a special day for Korea as well.
In the usually quiet castle, a storm was raging, an emotional storm of excitation nervousness, and many more emotions.
The maids and butlers were running around in the castle, going from one room to another. The cleaning squad of maids were ordered to not leave even a speck of dust while cleaning the castle. The chefs were preparing dishes, dozens... no, thousands of them. Even almost all the restaurants throughout the country were closed. Not because of some shut down or anything, but because they were all booked by the Royalty of the kingdom.
Because today was the day England would get a new official King... and a Queen as well. Their princes, Rachel Elizabeth Louise, was becoming a Queen today.
And she had bought with her a man too!
Yet, some of them were anxious, because their new King wasn't even a native of England... he was from a rival nation, Korea, a foreigner to their country.
Yet, at the very least, they were glad that he was strong. No... "strong" would be an understatement, because he was the strongest man in the World.
Indeed, today was the marriage of Kim Hajin and Rachel Elizabeth Louise, the two strongest beings in the world, ranked highest on any list whatsoever, official or not.
{A/N: Just a heads-up, I really don't know a thing about how marriage goes in Korea or in England, and I know for sure that the ways of my country are definitely far different from them, and, obviously, I'm not married myself, so I'll keep it as simple as possible and skip the scenes where I don't know how to develop the narrative, and the parts that I write are how I think they would go about. Sorry in advance if the writing turns out bad TTwTT}}
While most people already knew that they had a daughter, albeit unknown to them whether the daughter was biologically related or not, they were never "officially" married.
Now, shifting the scenario to another room in the castle, Rachel could be seen sitting on the corner of her bed while her mother, Queen Elizabeth, is styling her beautiful blonde hair. The beautiful wedding dress is hanging right next to her, its decorations shining like water drops on leaves after a beautiful rain.
One surprising thing is that there's no hint of nervousness, unlike how marriages normally go. Though, that's a given considering how much both the Queen and the King trust Hajin, and of course, Rachel herself is the same.
The parents don't feel any stress in entrusting their daughter to Hajin. They know Hajin can protect her, and above all, keep her happy.
To begin with, after the tragic incident that happened in the past, they promised themselves to not burden Rachel too much, and rather than forcing her to become a Queen in the future and take responsibility, they wanted her to live a peaceful, happy live instead, with a good man that would keep them happy.
They had plenty of trustable people that they could entrust the administration of the Kingdom too. Even if Rachel became the Queen, they wouldn't make her do too much, and would rather just make the servants do it.
But when they thought about Hajin.... he filled both scenarios. Not only could he keep Rachel happy, he would also make for a fine King. His power, his charisma that he gained after improving himself to be more positive, and so on, all of them would work fine for leadership qualities.
But all in all, the only thing was needed to be known was; Hajin was a good man, and Rachael was satisfied with what had happened so far, and what was happening at the time being.
Zooming out of her room, the wedding preparations still continued. It was evening at the moment, and the wedding was planned for late night, so there was still a lot of time left before the main event began.
Short Time Skip of a few hours
The wedding ceremony was taking place the main building of the Royal Palace, and inside a fully guarded room, one could see people gathering slowly but surely by each passing minute.
The King and the Queen were seated at the front most Pew along with Evandel, who was eagerly waiting for her parents to come.
Although there were only so many people that could fit in one hall, that was not to say only they would witness the marriage. All the people of England had received a special device a few days before the marriage, which allowed all of them, all referring to the whole country, and other countries too if they didn't deny it in the diplomatic exchanges, to view the marriage virtually inside the room.
This would have been virtually impossible under normal circumstances due to the huge overload, even with the world's advanced technology, but Hajin had easily achieved this via his powers. Or well, to be exact, the device was made by The Creator (or so the Supreme Deity claimed), who had then forced Hajin to give it to all residences of the country through Mass Teleportation Magic.
Now, back to the scenario itself, the Pope had been called for this grand occasion, and soon, when most of the guests had arrived, Hajin entered the hall too, and walking through the aisle, made his way to near the pope at the altar, patiently waiting for Rachel.
He was eager to see Rachel in a wedding dress, because she had simply refused to let him have even a small peek at her in the dress earlier the night.
Not to say he was angry at it, of course, he never could be. He well understood that Rachel might have her own reasons, one likely being that she wanted him to wait until the marriage ceremony and surprise him with her beauty.
Hajin, too, was fine with it. Even if he hadn't understood her reason, he would have let her be, since his personality didn't allow her to go against Rachel for no reason, and the same was for Rachel, too.
One thing to note, though, was that Hajin wasn't wearing any particularly fancy clothing. He simply didn't like all the fancy dresses that Royalty sometimes wore in weddings. Not that he completely hated them or hated anyone who wore them, no, but simply because in his eyes, they had too many decorations that had to be taken care of with delicate hands and delicate movements.
It was a divine cloth, magnificent and utterly beautiful. Anyone who had touched it beforehand to understand its feeling was simply amazed at the utterly divine and elegant feeling it gave.
Hajin blushed immediately when he saw Rachel in her beautiful dress. A gentle and caring smile appeared on his face as he gazed at the beautiful Rachel slowly approaching her, who slowly approached him while looking down, yet he could still see slight redness accompanying her beautiful face.
Her dress was, in a few words, simple yet divine, filled with elegance.
Of course, it was also made from the same cloth as Hajin's, and made by the same person, too. But while Hajin had kept his clothing as simple as possible, Rachel's was still quite decorated.
Not that Hajin didn't like it. Rather, he thought it suited her perfectly.
Hajin was a simple man, and while his face had grown quite handsome due to the immense increase in all stats, he didn't gave off the feeling of an exceptionally 'fancy' kind of person. While he was well aware of the fashion and kept his clothing updated, he didn't go to the 'extreme' side, and kept it at what was considered as an acceptable level by him. It suited his face, too.
On the other hand, for Rachel, Hajin believed, those clothes were a must. While they fell apart when compared to Rachel's own natural beauty, they still added a lot to her already existing beauty, and above all, made her give off an elegant feeling, something Hajin was quite fond of.
That was, of course, one of the factors Rachel had taken into consideration while happily choosing her wedding dress. So it wasn't to say that she disliked it either. Anything that Hajin liked, Rachel would like it too, and the same was true vice versa.
It was as if they were made for each other, tied by destiny.
Now, coming out of the descriptions, Rachel had made her way to the altar, and was now standing next to Hajin, both facing each other.
"Ready...?", Hajin asked in a silent tone, almost as if whispering a soothing look accompanied his face as he closed his eyes at Rachel.
"... Yes!", Rachel, too, responded in the same manner.
And the Pope began reciting the prayers.
Time Skip to the Vows
"Hajin UI Nebula Nava and Rachel UI Nebula Nava, I now invite you to join hands and make your vows, in the presence of God and his people.", declared the Pope with a smile on his face.
In fact, the Pope was quite happy to even be able to participate in this event, not because of the fact that they were Royalty, but because they had the title "Loved by God" as the System said during the Second Main Event.
While the Pope himself didn't attend the event, It didn't, of course, took long for the news to reach him.
Back to the main duo, Hajin held Rachel's right hand in his and began reciting...
"I, Hajin UI Nebula Nava, take you, Rachel UI Nebula Nava, to be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward; for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, in excitation and in boredom, to eternally love and cherish, in our immortal lives coursing through never-ending time; according to God's holy law. In the presence of God I make this vow."
After reciting, Hajin let go of Rachel's hand, and after a few seconds, Rachel takes Hajin's right hand in hers, their fingers intertwining, as Rachel began reciting...
"I, Rachel UI Nebula Nava, take you, Hajin UI Nebula Nava, to be my husband, to have and to hold from this day forward; for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, in excitation and in boredom, to eternally love and cherish, in our immortal lives coursing through never-ending time; according to God's holy law. In the presence of God I make this vow."
And they loose hands once again. Now came the Rings Giving.
Skip the Prayers from the Pope
Afterwards, while the Pope would normally receive the rings, such a thing didn't happen as the rings didn't exist yet, at least, not in this world.
However, just when the time came, Hajin raised his right hand up in the air as a divine blue light started shining. At first, its intensity increased rapidly, but after a few seconds, it started decreasing as Hajin simultaneously brought his hand down, revealing a ring.
The rings weren't actually created right at the moment, rather, they had already been stored inside Imaginary Space since prior. Although the Creator wanted to craft the things himself, Hajin had declined saying that he wanted to make it himself for this special occasion, and the same went for Rachel.
Hajin proposed that they made the rings themselves. The design was decided by both of them, though, it was mostly how Rachel described how she wanted them to be, and Hajin simply went along, letting her wishes run wild.
Of course, even if it wasn't made by the Creator, it was utterly beautiful regardless, radiating a divine aura that wasn't oppressing, neither fear-inducing, rather, it radiated a light of great elegance, peace, and endless warmth.
The warmth was, for that specific moment, all-encompassing. Even those that were initially tense during the ceremony had their minds relaxed thanks to the warmth the ring radiated.
Nonetheless, for Rachel, too, it was simply Euphoria. The smile on her face grew as she looked at Hajin, eagerly waiting for him to place the ring on her marriage finger.
Hajin, already knowing what Rachel wanted, gently took her left hand and slowly placed the ring on her heart finger, right where it truthfully belonged.
Afterwards, he kept holding her hands for a few seconds, both enjoying the moment, and then slowly let go as the warmth also slowly converged on itself until it was only encompassed the altar.
And just like Hajin, Rachel, too, raised her right hand towards the sky as the same divine light started shinning. As her hand slowly descended, the light decreased in intensity, revealing an equally beautiful ring of the same design.
Warmth once again descended on the entire room, filling it with a soothing feeling of love and compassion.
Rachel then looked at Hajin as their eyes met. Hajin's eyes told Rachel that he was patiently waiting for Rachel to do what was supposed to be done and gave her a look of approval.
Rachel, not wanting to keep Hajin waiting for too long, repeated what Hajin had done earlier as she took his left hand in hers, and with her right hand, slowly inserted the ring on his ring finger.
{{A/N: I decided to skip the prayers after each Rings Giving as well}}
The warmth once again converged on itself until it was only embracing Hajin and Rachel, retreating from the rest of the room.
The Pope started narrating his prayers again while Hajin's and Rachel's eyes were locked on each other, and soon announced, "You may kiss the bride now..." while looking at Hajin.
Hajin was the first one to take a step and close the distance between him and Rachel, holding her back with his left hand while his right hand held on to Rachel's left hand.
As they locked in place, Rachel now slowly closed the gap between their faces as their lips came near each other slowly but surely, until they intertwined.
It was a warm and gentle kiss, not like a French kiss, but a simple passionate kiss filled with their eternal love for each other. Simultaneously, it also once again filled the room, encompassing it with a warm comfort.
They kept their positions as is for a while, enjoying each other's warmth. It wasn't like they didn't had each other's warmth any other time, rather, it was because this particular kiss held a special meaning for them, one that would mark their eternal promise to each other in their immortal lives, throughout the course of endless extension of time.
The guests didn't mind either, and simply closed their eyes after the first few seconds, enjoying the warm comfort that filled the room as they leaned back on their pews.
After a long minute of complete bliss, they slowly broke the kiss, although they still held on to each other.
"By the authority bestowed to me by the State of England, I now pronounce you husband and wife.", the Pope declared, and music started playing with intensity, filling not just the room, not just the castle, but the entire Kingdom of England.
"Ready for the night, dear~?", Rachel took this moment to tease Hajin, giving him a naughty look as her face reddened slightly. She was expecting Hajin to be a bit taken aback, but to her surprise...
"Always ready for you, my queen, but are you ready too~?", Hajin didn't miss the opportunity to tease her back, making her blush increase in intensity. However, Rachel's smile also widened, the look on her face telling Hajin all what she wanted.
And so continued the event, marking one of the most important and blissful moments of their lives for eternity.....
~~THE END~~
