Chapter 629 – Ep.627 Tullius Empire
“Uhm…”
Cernax, feeling a little thirsty, fluttered his closed eyelids and slowly woke up.
“Are you uncomfortable?”
“… ?”
Kernax, who had just woken up from a deep sleep every time he fell asleep after having a child, rolled his dazed eyes in search of the voice he heard indistinctly.
“…”
“…”
Let’s just look at each other in silence for a moment.
“Ah… It was Sith…”
“It’s okay to call me sister like Siron.”
“Uhm… Well, I don’t think that’s right…”
Light blue hair and light blue eyes.
There are people with a variety of skin and hair colors as there are continents where various races live, but sky blue was definitely a color I had never heard of.
“All right. “Please call me whenever it is convenient for you.”
“Yeah…”
I heard that she is a being close to god, but aside from her mysterious appearance, she appears to be just an attractive woman. But she had no doubt that she was a great person because she trusted Smith, who was now her husband.
Sigh.
Kernax carefully lifted his heavy body and tried to get off the bed. Then Sis, who was standing next to her, took a step forward and asked.
“If you need anything, just let me know.”
“Wait a minute…”
“I’ll get it right away.”
“No, I’m just going to take a walk…”
She had heard that too much activity was not good, but she had also heard that too little movement was not good, so she got up with the intention of going for a short walk.
Of course, as time goes by, she also gets to see the face of her husband, whose love for her grows even more.
“… “I’m in particularly good condition today.”
From early in the morning, she saw Smith’s face, and she could sleep comfortably in her arms until late. And in the afternoon, she was able to relieve all her worries and stress in her bath, so even if she didn’t want to feel bad, she had no choice but to do well.
But.
“If you need water, please wait here. Mr. Smith is against you going down to the kitchen now.”
“Are you against it?”
“Yes. “If you want to take a walk separately, I will accompany you to the garden.”
“… No, no. Just water… “Please give me a little something.”
Cernax rested her legs on the bed and looked out the half-opened window at the scenery.
Beautiful stars twinkling in the dark night sky.
She said, ‘She said they would discuss what happened at the ball…’ …’
Dinner time.
Nyaho, who had gone out, must have also returned from work, so it seems like yesterday’s events are being discussed in the kitchen right now.
‘… ‘You should stay out of the way.’
With that thought in mind, Kernax slowly lays himself back down on the bed.
“Just in case you misunderstand, the reason Mr. Smith was prevented from coming down to the kitchen was because of the three people who were still smelling of alcohol.”
“Alcohol… ?”
“Yes. “The three you saw before lunch.”
“Lunch… Ah.”
Kernax, who was tracing his memories in response to Sith’s elegant yet blunt answer, was able to recall the three of them coming down while Smith was being attended to in the morning and then being dragged up the road by Giena and Beneo.
“Although she has come to her senses, she still smells of strong alcohol. Concerned about the health of Monk Kernax and her child, Master Smith has asked you to prevent Monk Kernag from coming to the kitchen.”
“Yeah, right… Okay…”
“Yes. Then I will bring you water.”
“Uh…”
Cernax stood up again, gave a shy look to the half-closed Sith, and kissed his lips.
“… “Can I ask you to take a walk with me in the garden later?”
“Of course.”
“… Okay, thank you.”
“It was nothing.”
Because he lowered his head out of shame, he did not see Kernax.
The corner of Sith’s mouth as she left the bedroom drew a very subtle but faint line.
**
“Everyone is listening correctly, right?”
“Ugh… Hey, I’m listening…”
“Hmm~”
“Hmm… Kuul…”
“Oh my god.”
I ended up leaning against the back of the chair, covering my face with both hands.
Nemea was pressing her temples because of a headache, Siron was sleeping soundly, hugging me tightly, sitting on my thighs like a koala, and Bizelin was sleeping with his head on the table.
‘It’s like these drunkards…’ …’
I lowered my hand to cover my face and looked at my sister’s face as she rested her chin on the table.
“…”
“… “Okay then.”
As if to show that her time as guild branch leader had not gone anywhere, she was dozing off with her chin resting, pretending to listen.
“Who on earth did you hear about hangover liquor from?”
“Me.”
“… ?”
Siran, who was the only one who was listening to my story, raised his hand with a slightly embarrassed expression.
“W-what are you talking about… In the old days, it was said that alcohol was the best way to sober up… Huh.”
Even as he spoke, Siran scratched his cheek and slightly avoided my gaze, perhaps out of embarrassment.
“… Okay.”
“… Yes.”
“Ha…”
Finally, I sighed and patted Shiron’s back as he snuggled into my arms, resting my chin on his shoulder and looking around.
Gienna and Beneo, who had been hanging out with me in the kitchen with Siron from the afternoon until sunset, got along really well and were dozing off on each other’s shoulders. And as you can see, the first Shiron I held was asleep in my arms.
And my sister and Nemea sitting across from me. And Bizelin.
I sent him upstairs to sober up, but instead of sobering up, I couldn’t help but be confused when he came back down drunk.
‘If those three can get drunk with just a few bottles, how strong is the rum they said they brought from the guild?’
I don’t know, but it was expected to be so strong that an ordinary person would die on the spot if they drank it without knowing it.
“… “Let’s just discuss it again tomorrow evening.”
Bizelin and her sister had already left for dreamland a long time ago, and Nemea, who was barely holding on to her spirit, was holding on to listen to me, holding on to her eyelids that had become so heavy that I felt sorry for everyone watching.
In a situation like this, even if I’m fine, I can’t proceed even if I want to because the people who need to listen are not normal, so what can I do? I just need to get it over with.
‘What… ‘It’s not that urgent.’
Besides, the most important thing right now, finding the priest using the name Gilena, was to just ask Nemea before work tomorrow and tell her to deliver it to Agatha, who hadn’t seen her face since she left the mansion.
“Hmm… “Then I’ll move the kids and come back, so just wait a moment.”
Siran got up from his seat as if he had been waiting, and with the smallest, Lady Vizelin, by his side, he grabbed the necks of the bigger woman and Nemea with one hand, and then dragged them across the floor and disappeared across the hallway.
“It was your long-awaited day off. When you wake up, your stomach will hurt for a while.”
While waiting for Siran to return, he was patting Siron’s back and gently touching her buttocks, when Sis came trotting out this way instead of Siran.
“What about Kernax?”
“Thanks to someone, I slept peacefully and woke up. “I said she was thirsty, so I just came out to get some water, so don’t worry about it.”
“Thank you.”
“There is no need to be grateful because I do it because I enjoy it.”
“Thank you anyway.”
“… What. “I will accept it.”
Sis looked at me sullenly for a moment, then went into the kitchen and came back out with a cold bottle of water.
“I will tell the story of the Crown Princess and the princesses to them tomorrow.”
“Uh? Really?”
“Yes. “It’s not that difficult.”
“… Sis. “I believed it too.”
“For that matter, you’ve been gossiping about me quite a bit.”
“… Should I lick your feet later?”
“… “Just don’t treat it like an apology for wanting to lick my feet.”
“Big.”
When I cleared my throat awkwardly, Sith’s gaze became even colder.
Of course, even if I glared at him like that, I wasn’t scared at all because hearts immediately appeared in my eyes when I got on the bed.
“… “I will call you briefly before going to bed, so please come to the bathhouse then.”
Sis quickly grabbed the water bottle and went back the way he came.
‘As expected, it’s cute.’
As I wait for Siran to come back, I grope his body and kiss his cheek.
“Shall we go?”
Siran, who came back after leaving the three of us, was dozing off, so she put me and Beneo on her side and asked me.
“Ah, I would like to ask you for Siron as well.”
“You?”
“I have to wait.”
I took off Siran and gently placed it on Siran’s back. Then Siron clung to Siran’s back, pursing his lips like a cat seeking warmth.
“… Should I come down too?”
“Write it. Siran enjoyed it during the day.”
“… “It’s fun.”
Who wouldn’t say mother and daughter?
Siran went up to this floor with the three of them together, his lips slightly pouting.
“Let’s try making something.”
To relieve my boredom, I went into the kitchen for the first time in a while and put on an apron. Of course, I didn’t have any professional knowledge, so I didn’t know how to make the kind of dessert that Nyaho liked, but I knew how to make a sandwich to go with her favorite tomato stew, so I took out a few fresh tomatoes and things to put in the sandwich from the storage. Ready.
Crack, thump.
When I put the top on, I set up the tomatoes and meat to go with it, and then prepare to brew the broth.
“Seo~ room~ niim~!!”
“Oh my.”
I couldn’t even hear the footsteps, but Nyaho, who I don’t know when came, hugged my waist from behind and stuck her face out between her left armpit.
“Didn’t you come by carriage? “Why are your hair and cheeks so cold?”
“I wanted to take a walk, so I walked a little bit.”
“Okay?”
“Yes.”
Nyaho blinks and nods his head together.
I stopped what I was doing for a moment and cupped Nyaho’s cold cheek with both hands.
“Lol… Quickly… “It feels good to see the West’s hands being so big and warm.”
“It’ll be done soon, so go and change your clothes. “After we finish eating, let’s take a bath together.”
“Yes~ But where have the others gone?”
“What… “There are various reasons.”
“So, am I monopolizing the West?”
“Until you go to bed?”
“… !!”
Nyaho’s eyes widened, and the ears on his head perked up! And stood close.
“But nyahoya.”
“Yes?”
“Something really happened, right?”
“What happened?”
Nyaho tilts her head cutely, blinking at her odd eyes that shine like jewels.
‘There’s no way Nyaho, who hates activity itself, would have just walked.’
I wouldn’t know if you were walking with me.
Moreover, it would be possible to escape the cold by using the token’s ability.
“No. “Quickly change and come down.”
“Hehe, I’ll be back soon~”
Nyaho quickly left the kitchen, wagging his butt along with his tail.
‘… ‘It would be a good idea to send in someone who is playing.’
I grabbed the ladle I had placed and concentrated on stirring the pot again.
