Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian)

In Coreland, becoming a warrior came with the prestigious reward of a noble title from the empire. They could receive an annual salary of 100 gold coins without doing anything.

In contrast, a commoner would struggle to earn even one gold coin in a year of hard labor. Furthermore, a baron received this title and a land or a small town as part of their reward. According to Jenna, their village had a baron named Felix Baldwin. He ruled like a local tyrant with the authority to decide the villagers' fate.

Sebastian had learned his own name from Fressia.

On the other hand, Jenna had noticed a badge on Fressia's waist with the inscription "Everlight" on the back, which should be the name of a sect. The front was engraved with the word "Fressia", which was likely her name. Soon, the two settled into the village's lifestyle.

Jenna had mentioned that they were found hugging each other, so Sebastian and Fressia thought that they were a couple. With no memory of their past, they simply went along with the assumption.

Sebastian didn't want to be a freeloader, so he hunted in the mountains every day. He always returned with a bountiful haul.

Jenna was thrilled by the plentiful catches. She sold the remaining at the market since they couldn't consume all the meat. The extra income significantly improved their living conditions and made the villagers envious.

After dinner that day, he was about to go hunting in the mountains when she stopped him. "Don't go hunting today. I have something to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" he asked curiously.

Jenna replied, "Word about you and Fressia staying at my place has spread. Although you're a couple, you're not married. Plus, there's been plenty of gossip. I'm proposing that you two get married, and I want to hear your thoughts on it." "I'll leave it to you, ma'am." Fressia's face flushed with embarrassment.

Sebastian nodded with a smile.

Fressia was breathtakingly beautiful. As a man, he had long been captivated by her. If Jenna hadn't warned him to hold off until marriage, he might have already taken things further with Fressia. So, he was excited by Jenna's suggestion to marry Fressia. Jenna quickly arranged for the villagers to help with the wedding preparations. She took the couple to the village chief for official registration.

In Coreland, it was mandatory to register for marriage. Without the registration, the couple was not considered legally married. If they were caught having sexual relations without being officially married, both could face severe punishment.

The village chief was a middle-aged man in his 50s with a stern demeanor. He had heard about Fressia's stunning beauty. When he saw her, he was mesmerized and nearly drooled over her.

He turned to Sebastian and said enviously, "You're a lucky man."

After the registration, the couple held a simple wedding at Jenna's home. Since Sebastian had lost his memories, she had taken him in as her godson.

The guests were mainly villagers and a few of Jenna's relatives. Although the crowd was small, the atmosphere was vibrant.

The groom had to toast each table as part of the local tradition. Sebastian should have gotten drunk after one round, but surprisingly, he had a high tolerance for alcohol.

He drank the strong liquor as if it were just water. Despite consuming over ten glasses, he showed no sign of intoxication.

Just as Sebastian was about to sit down for a meal, a group of men in leather armor burst in.

"Where's the bride? Get her out here now!"

These men were very arrogant and stepped on the guests' chairs. But the guests were terrified and too afraid to speak up.

Jenna rushed over with a face full of ingratiating smiles. "Sirs, please sit down and have a drink."

The leader of the group was a man in his 50s. He was Hubert Stone, the Baldwin Manor's butler.

He took a sip from a wine bottle and immediately spat it out on Jenna's face.

Sebastian was furious when he saw that. He prepared to confront Hubert, but the villagers quickly stopped him and told him not to be impulsive.

Hubert threw the wine bottle to the ground and commented, "This wine is terrible. It tastes like horse piss."

Jenna didn't dare to get angry.

Instead, she forced a smile and said,

"Please calm down, sir. We're poor and can't afford better wine. I hope you understand. How about some food instead?"

He glanced at the food disdainfully and said, "This is garbage. At Baldwin Manor, we wouldn't even feed this to our dogs. Hurry up and bring out the bride. I can't stand being in this dump for another second."

"Okay. I'll get the bride right now," she said and rushed inside..

Sebastian followed her and asked, "Jenna, why do they want Fressia?"

She replied, "Oh, I forgot to mention this. Since you've lost your memory, you aren't familiar with our rules

hord Baldwin must be the one

to take the bride's virginity.
