Chapter 276 – The Coming End
I looked at the flag with the fluttering Helios pattern.
A pattern engraved with the meaning of the sun.
“Sun…”
Sun flag?
“Ugh, the head.”
I thought I would remember something from my previous life, but I held back. It is a country with the same sun as its symbol, but it is very different. Above all, the color is different.
“Okay. It’s gold.”
The sun is also made of gold because it is the lineage of the golden lion. It is different from the national flag or its pattern of any other country in the world.
“At first, the reaction wasn’t good, so what was it that you liked so much?”
As I was looking at him with a satisfied smile, I turned my head to the voice I heard from behind.
“Irina. I’m here?”
“There were other people besides me.”
She stroked Irina’s cheek as she spoke with a slightly pouty face.
“Joy.”
“Sorry.”
“What?”
A wry smile came out of his pouting appearance.
“Because I couldn’t get you pregnant.”
“… Excitement.”
Irina’s cheeks puffed up at my words. Except for Grace, Claire, and Triana, who gave birth to children, no other women are pregnant yet.
There are just a few things I was aiming for.
“It would be difficult without your strength.”
“Eww.”
Confrontation with King Bastian. Genesis is essential there. Although artificially created, it is a technique that dominates the battlefield itself, backed up by the entire world.
In addition, if even one of Irina, Alina, or Amelia falls out due to pregnancy or other reasons, the technique will fail. It’s definitely not a skill that I can cover alone or with the help of others.
And to fight the king in that state, no matter how much I am, I have no choice but to hesitate. Of course, if you ask me to fight, I will fight.
The odds of winning cannot be predicted. If so, I’d rather lead an army.
What is a duel Even if I made up my mind, I have no intention of dying. Now I have a wife and a baby, but I have no intention of leaving.
I have to live
And Irina knows the difficulty of technology. Because of that, her mouth is sticking out, but she didn’t reject my touch.
“What about the other kids?”
“It’s a restaurant.”
“Then shall we go too?”
As I stroked her hair and whispered to her, Irina’s voice seemed to have eased a little, and she held her hand.
“… Hehe.”
Intertwined with the slender fingers facing each other. The soft touch and warm temperature of your tightly held hands will make you feel at ease.
Irina could see that the corners of her mouth went up slightly, as if she liked my behavior of frequent skinship for a male aristocrat.
I’m out of anger thank god.
* * *
We headed to the restaurant where everyone had gathered.
As I sat in the highest seat, I could feel everyone’s eyes on me.
“Flaw.”
Irina, Alina, and Amelia, as well as Grace’s older sister, are here. All of them, including Chloe and Triana, who could be called concubines and concubines, are gathered.
Seeing lovers gathered like this, I could feel how different her life was from her previous life.
“Thank you for coming all together.”
As we made eye contact, everyone smiled quietly. I was relieved by the trust and affection I felt.
The days to fight against King Bastian were few and far between. Did I feel burdened without realizing it?
If you eat the food that comes in, you will continue small talk.
“How is the boat?”
“I’m OK. Although Triana is having a hard time.”
“I’m fine now. It’s hard, but you have to eat.”
I ask how pregnant Chloe and Triana are.
“Pregnancy. A little scary.”
“Whoops. Giving birth is definitely difficult and difficult, but it makes my body and mind fuller.”
Amelia and Grace’s sisters chat with each other.
“Have you seen Apollo? Isn’t it cute?”
“Leo’s eyes look like Grace, other than that. It was cute.”
“I was happy to resemble Grace noona. It would be cuter if he looked more like his older sister than me.”
“As expected, since I’m the eldest son, wouldn’t it be better to be a bit more dignified?”
“That wouldn’t be bad either.”
Irina and Alina chatted for a while about the story of Apollo, who could be said to be their only child.
Soon there will be a duel to the death, but they treat each other as usual. As if wishing that this would not be the last.
I smiled looking at them.
Dalgrak!
“Leo.”
When the meal was over and they were drinking tea, Grace’s older sister took out her magic crystal from her arms.
“This…”
I have a memory.
“It must be the Magic Stone that Grace gave me when she got married.”
A top-notch magic stone given as a family gift to Grace’s older sister, who becomes a member of the Franz family. It is an extremely rare magic stone even in the Franz family, who frequently subdue large-scale monsters in the Great Mountains.
To be honest, there are many things that I can’t use because it’s a pity and leave it to my descendants.
I gave mine to Amelia.
“Oh oh. Also the Franz family. There is again How many magic stones are in the treasure house!”
As he looks at Amelia, her eyes are twinkling. Seeing the greed reflected in her eyes, he quickly picked up the magic crystal and hid it.
“Ugh.”
Their eyes met, but he shook her head resolutely.
“Because I won’t even say that.”
To be honest, there are only a few left. In the first place, the Franz family did not easily hunt large-scale monsters.
The ones who come down to the bottom of the Great Mountains are the ones who got eliminated in the food scramble, so it’s easy. This is easy to understand if you think of his father’s arm. The scary thing about them is that they don’t know what kind of abilities they might have.
“Chit.”
Amelia kicks her tongue, but knowing the value of her quips, she backs off easily. Still, I get cold sweats staring at the magic stone for self-defense.
While holding her in check, she looked at her older sister Grace.
“Why did you suddenly take this out?”
“Whoops. Take a closer look at the magic stone.”
At the words of Grace, who smiled at our skit, I checked the magic stone.
“Hmm?”
Although it was a magic stone filled with pure magical power, I felt a sense of heterogeneity. This magic…
“It’s Hemilion’s magic.”
The magic of synchronization and connection. Although the value of pure magical power is lower, this power that eroded that magical power cannot be taken lightly. Extremely speaking, this level of power could produce the same effect as the Marquis’ Blood Chain.
Of course, only the Marquis of Hemillion would be able to maintain a few people.
“Did you say Genesis? I heard about the mechanics of that technique. If I use my power, I wonder if I can use it more easily next time. With that thought in mind, I brought the magic stone.”
“Sister…”
The magic crystal wears out the more you use it. When quality and quantity go down, their value also goes down. Taking out a magic stone that wouldn’t be strange even if it became an heirloom passed down from generation to generation.
“The synchronization and connection of each other’s magical powers will become stronger. He will create a world of Leo that will not be easily broken from the inside as well as from the outside.”
“I guess so. I looked at the blood chain of the Marquis of Kilias and found a part to fix, but there should be no problem using this magic stone. But can you give me this easily?”
“Sure. He’s my Leo. There…”
Said Sister Grace with her motherly benevolent smile.
“Because Apollo needs a father.”
Oooh, dazzling! This feeling… ! After all, Grace noona is the woman who will become my mother!
“Mama… !”
“Leo… !”
Irina, who was looking at us like that, looked at us with cold eyes.
“… After all, that woman was the most dangerous.”
“We should be pregnant too.”
“It’s unreasonable to point a sword at someone you once swore allegiance to, but it can’t be helped!”
Irina, Alina, and Amelia made up their mind inwardly.
‘I’ll definitely get pregnant when it’s over!’

It was a boring time.
King Bastian opened his closed eyes. Long time. I felt the winter that seemed to last forever, defying the cycle of nature, slowly melt away. It is not that the magic of winter has disappeared, nor that the magic of stubbornness has diminished.
Outside influence.
“The sun has risen.”
1st degree, maybe 2nd degree. I actually felt the temperature rise.
In the winter of my stay in the capital, the sun appeared close. It means that the long-awaited guest is coming.
“Heh.”
With the presence of magic he could feel, King Bastian realized what Leoric Hyperion wanted.
“I wanted that too.”
War isn’t bad, but dueling isn’t bad either. Rather, it is good.
“I guess I wasn’t the king’s vessel after all.”
Frozen and unrotten, he looked at his son who was looking at him with open eyes.
He is the prince who would take his place if he were a normal king. He didn’t hate it On the contrary, there was also infidelity.
But more than that, the war where he risked his life shook his heart.
“Son. There is not much time left to go to your side.”
If you lose, we’ll meet right away.
If you win
“Even so, it won’t be long.”
To carry on the tedious duty of a king. He is practically dead. If it’s right, it’s not bad to hand over the king’s seat to any nobleman and invade the next country.
Although it’s funny that the title most suitable for him is the Duke of Hyperion.
Kurung-!
A shockwave created by the collision of winter and the sun’s magic hit the capital.
Booths!
Watching the falling pieces of stone, King Bastian also stood up.
“It’s a departure.”
