Chapter 470 – 470. The First Gift of Life (2)
There are many ways to confirm the fact of pregnancy, such as folk remedies or tests based on medical knowledge, but in Eunhyeon’s case, there is a very certain method.
“I am sure.”
Belldandi, who materialized in the underworld, caressed Illyana’s stomach and smiled happily as if it were her own.
“In the womb of the witch child, a new ‘time’ has begun to flow.”
Belldandy’s words mean that a new life is now conceived and given a destiny, and that life has begun.
“Wow, wow…”
Erin, who had just finished taking a shower and dried her hair, came out into the living room and put on a dumbfounded expression when she heard the news of Illyana’s pregnancy.
“Lord Iliana! Really!?”
Erin’s behavior as she runs up and confirms with Illyana is very excited and noisy.
“Baby. Thank you for making me happy, but please don’t be too rowdy from now on. The baby in your belly will surprise you.”
“Ah, that’s right… ! Sorry.”
Erin answered in a low voice, reflecting on her own arrogance and fuss.
Even so, her gaze was directed to Illyana’s abdomen.
She was as usual as of yet, but sooner or later her stomach should swell like Theresia’s and contain new life.
“Congratulations. Miss Illyana.”
“Whoops. Thank you.”
Illyana responded to Erin’s words of congratulations by holding her own hand with both of her own.
Eventually, Eunhyeon, who had a blank expression on her face, asked Illyana.
“… Since when?”
“When I was talking to Theresia before, the scent of black tea was a bit disgusting.”
She was a regular tea drinker, but seeing that she was very disgusted that day, she had doubts.
And when I calculated her timing, it seems that it was probably then, said Illyana.
“You did it for a few days in our elven forest when you had time and spare time.”
At that time, it was Illyana who was active as if she was very hungry, but Eunhyun did not bother to refute.
She coveted each other’s body without knowing the end and moved her body without rest.
Moreover, it was her own choice to accept all of her wife’s desires as they were.
“Besides, didn’t you eat that too?”
“… It did.”
Eunhyun nodded at Illyana’s question.
She didn’t bother to ask what it was, but she noticed right away.
The potion made by diluting the sap of the World Tree, also called the source of life, is a secret medicine developed with the aim of increasing the fertility rate among elves who do not have good children.
“But does the effect come out so directly…? .”
The effectiveness of the elixir taken with children in mind is not as good as that of elves, but it is as if it has been successfully proven that it works for witches who have difficulty having children.
Eunhyun smiled incredulously.
“Am I going to be the father of the baby?”
It’s not like she never imagined such a future.
From the moment I got married to Illyana and Eleanor, I imagined the days of having children and living a happy family someday, but I didn’t know if the day would come true.
That’s why she may feel even greater joy at the unexpected and unexpected news.
“Congratulations. Hey You have been given a great gift.”
“… Thank you.”
Gift.
It’s an expression that fits perfectly, Eunhyun thought.
It is a very special gift that I have never had in the 400 years since I was born.
“That’s why the two of you were so excited.”
Eunhyeon laughed as she saw the table set with so many kinds of food that her upper legs would bend.
This was literally a celebration of the occasion.
“Are you okay with the smell or morning sickness?”
“Lily is making my own food.”
“It’s a place where you deserve to be celebrated the most, but it’s a pity that you can’t eat it.”
“I’m fine. Do you see these menus rather than that?”
Eunhyeon looked at the food prepared on the table step by step at Illyana’s question.
“These are…”
All of them are full of foods that are good for stamina.
“Wow…”
Erin opened her mouth wide as she looked at the great variety of food, making her speechless.
After the hard training, the hungry stomach was anxiously waiting for the meal to begin.
Erin, who had just learned about Iliana’s pregnancy, seemed to have no idea, but Eleanor and Lily are different.
Every time I looked at the food that was served on the table with Lily’s painstaking efforts, I could feel how sincere Eleanor and Lily were.
Illyana pulled Eunhyun’s arm and brought her face closer, and she whispered in his ear.
“I guess you two want to have four children too.”
“…”
“My husband will continue to work hard at night, right?”
“Haha…”
Eunhyun smiled bitterly and started the dinner that she had delivered the very happy news to.
◆ ◆ ◆
The next day, Eunhyeon walked inside the Armitas estate for the first time in a long time since early morning.
“Hyunah, where are we going?”
Erin, who just happened to be taking a break from Gumiho training, had nothing to do, so she followed Eun-hyeon.
“To the business of Jess. To buy ingredients to feed Illyana.”
“Aha.”
Erin nodded her head with her convinced face.
Erin put on a slightly envious expression at Eun-hyeon’s actions as she went directly to find ingredients for healthy food for her now pregnant wife.
I was envious of Illyana, who was cared for and cared for with her utmost sincerity.
She finally asked Eunhyeon with a little anticipation.
“If I have a baby in my belly, will you take care of it like Illyana-sama?”
“…”
Eunhyeon had no choice but to stop her steps at Erin’s question as she hugged her with one arm.
She saw the expression on her face, like that of a pet hungry for her master’s attention, and with a wry smile she fed Erin’s head with honey chestnuts.
“Ouch!”
“There’s nothing he can’t do.”
“It hurts!”
Ignoring Erin’s complaints that she didn’t understand why she was suddenly hitting her own head, Eunhyeon picked up her body and lifted her up.
It is very thin and light.
“What, what are you doing!”
Erin was startled and patted Eunhyun on the chest.
“My, drop me off! People see… !”
As the attention of many people on her street focused on herself and her Eun-hyeon, her Erin’s face turned red.
It seemed that there was still a sense of shame in receiving the attention of many people.
“Even if you don’t have a baby, I won’t neglect you.”
“Oh, I know!”
When Eunhyeon finally landed on the floor, Erin hugged him by the arm and lowered her head, hiding her blushing face from the people around her.
It was unknown whether they were lovers or married, but people laughed at Erin’s reaction like a bride-to-be in the midst of the two people’s squabbling.
Taking Erin like that, Eunhyeon finally reached the top of Jiss.
“Wow… You’ve grown so much…”
Erin, who had been unable to raise her face in shame at the people’s happy gazes until earlier, admired the arrival of Ji’s store building.
The shop, which was just a small grocery store selling only potions and herbs, has now turned into a large commercial building with five floors.
As soon as I followed Eun-hyeon into the building, the atmosphere inside the shop was very noisy with the noisy voices of many people mixing.
“No. Well! Because this is really the best!? Hit me a little more!”
“No matter how many times I say that!?”
A scuffle between an adventurer who wants to sell the captured material at a slightly higher price and an employee of the company who refuses to sell it.
“I can’t sell it for this price!”
“Don’t do that, shave a little more!”
People who try to bargain for quality weapons and armor.
Conversely, a conversation between staff trying to buy a good product brought by a customer.
The first floor of the store, where goods and money as well as countless conversations were exchanged, was very noisy.
This means that Jee’s Sanghoe has grown tremendously.
“What did you come for?”
“I’m here to see the president of the business.”
The president of the company is the current head of this company, and it refers to Jis.
Eun-hyeon took out the insignia of the ducal family from her bosom and presented it to the receptionist who asked about her business.
“This, this… !”
Normally, it would be their basic job to ask if they had made a prior agreement and to follow the procedures set out in the manual, but the receptionist looked surprised the moment he saw the insignia of the Armitas Duke Family, the manager of this territory.
“I will guide you up and up.”
Before long, he hurriedly corrected his dazed expression and led Eunhyeon and Erin upstairs.
She was taken aback, but she came to her senses and thought that she was a better-minded employee than she thought, and Eun-hyeon, along with Erin, moved along with the receptionist’s guidance.
Soon after, they arrived in front of the president’s office on the 4th floor, but the receptionist didn’t let Eunhyeon and Erin into the president’s room right away.
“I’m sorry, but the president of Sang Sang has a prior appointment, so you have to wait here until you finish your business…”
But before the receptionist could finish talking, Eun-hyeon heard a man’s voice from inside the president’s room.
“Are you really going to do this!?”
“No matter how many times you ask, my answer is the same.”
“… You will regret it.”
After saying that, the door to the president’s office opened, and two men came out of the room.
“Tsk. Uh.”
The man following him saw Eun-hyeon waiting in front of the door and immediately corrected his expression, but Eun-hyeon did not miss the expression of the man who frowned and clicked his tongue.
After a while, they didn’t make eye contact with the man and kept talking about each other, but the atmosphere of the two men whispering among themselves as they passed Eunhyeon and Erin was obviously strange.
“Hyunah. Those people…”
Erin also hardened her expression and grabbed Eunhyun’s arm.
Erin, who has the special ability to read other people’s emotions, must have read the ominous thoughts of the two men who passed her.
“Know.”
“… Huh.”
Erin quietly nodded her head at Eunhyun’s words.
“Chairman. A guest has arrived.”
“… Is it again? Whew. Ask them to come in.”
Jiss’ voice from inside the president’s room was full of fatigue.
She seemed to be under a lot of stress as she was dealing with an issue that she probably wouldn’t be uncomfortable with.
“You can go in.”
“Thank you.”
Following the receptionist’s guidance, Eunhyeon and Erin entered the president’s room.
“I am better!”
Jis, who confirmed the two people who had entered the president’s office, was startled and hurriedly stood up.
“If you sit over here…”
“No. It’s okay. You don’t have to do that.”
She hurriedly invited him to sit at the top of the sofa, in the center of the sofa, but Eun-hyeon refused such cumbersome ostentation.
This treatment of being treated as the secret boss of this company while standing in front of the president of the pants is so absurd that it makes me laugh.
Jis did not relax and asked Eunhyeon.
“Hey, what happened until here… ?”
“The person I found out this time has a child.”
It was unclear who exactly the person inside was referring to, but the faces of Illyana and Eleanor appeared in Jis’ mind.
Aside from Erin, those two are the people Jis must look good for.
“Congratulations!”
“Okay. Thank you. So this time I came to buy ingredients and medicines that are good for pregnant women.”
“Oh, I see! I will prepare it so that you can see it right away.”
Jess took a bell from the side drawer of the sofa and shook it.
As soon as I heard the clear bell, the secretary came in.
“Choose the list of medicines and food ingredients that are good for pregnant women that you made last time and bring them.”
“All right.”
First, when the secretary, who was ordered to bring the list that had already been made for Theresia’s body, left the chairman’s room, Eun-hyeon spoke to Jiss again.
“Are you having a hard time these days?”
“Yes. What…”
Jess nodded his head with a confused look on his face.
“The two men who left this room earlier.”
“… !”
Jis’s shoulders trembled at Eunhyeon’s precise remark.
He’s making a face as if he might be fucked because it’s not his fault.
“I am fine. I am…”
“Know. I heard That there was an offer from the other side, and you turned it down.”
“…”
“Then tell me what happened.”
Jess let out a small sigh and finally opened her mouth.
“… Whoa. All right.”
If Eun-hyeon knew that he rejected the offer, there was nothing to hold back.
Jess decided to tell the truth.
“A couple of months ago… Those two men who were said to be merchants began to persistently visit our company. Their names are ‘Bit’ and ‘Doji’…”
“… ‘Beat’ and ‘Doji’?”
“Yes? Yes. You’re right. Do you know people?”
Eun-hyeon frowned and chewed on the names of the two men Jis had mentioned once again, and Jiss put on a puzzled expression.
“… That’s a strange name.”
Erin, who was listening to her circumstances, also made her puzzled expression.
“No. People you don’t know but…”
Those are the names that make me feel bad just hearing the name.
“You lost your hand well. I almost got bitten.”
“Yes? What is that… ?”
“No. Nothing. Keep talking.”
