News comes quickly in the countryside.
Moreover, if the news is very important to the entire neighborhood, the speed with which the rumor spreads is reminiscent of the bullets of a trained marksman.
What does that mean?
“My lord! “Bath Ne sent me a gift!”
“The blacksmith sent me some armor! Hey Veron! “It’s your grandfather’s work, so you should introduce it yourself!”
“yes! My lord! “Congratulations on your pregnancy!”
“you stupid! “It’s the lady who is pregnant, not the lord!”
“oh!”
Everyone’s congratulations followed.
It’s only been one day since the pregnancy was confirmed.
Even then, Elric felt numb.
No, it was not only Elric but also Tyria.
“… “I think it’s in here.”
In the garden, where flowers were finally in full bloom, Elric knelt in front of Tyria and rubbed her stomach.
It was a tense movement.
In fact, it is because you cannot feel anything just by looking at the outside, and even though it is such a small life, its weight feels like a thousand pounds, making you feel stuffy inside.
Even though I am truly happy, the weight of the word “father” feels too heavy to be just happy.
It was because he knew his father, who was so clumsy, and because he knew that he had been hurt by him.
Elric was a little scared.
What would you do if you became a similar father?
It was a moment to even think about it.
“… “I’m still in a daze.”
Tyria placed her hand on the back of Elric’s hand.
The smile she saw when she looked up was truly awkward.
“I can’t believe I’m becoming a mother. “She is happy but also worried.”
Tyria’s hands were full of strength.
“I don’t know a good mother. Suddenly a thought occurred to me. “What if I become the same person as my mother, who hurt me so much when I was young?”
“ma’am… .”
“Should I inadvertently punish the child corporally or break the child’s heart?”
At that moment, Elric noticed Tyria’s bitter face.
“I guess I was thinking the same thing. we are.”
“Yes, I guess all parents do that.”
Hehe, Tyria laughed.
Elric felt an indescribable emotion.
The feeling is a sense of kinship, bitterness, or relief.
Ah, was the mother who embraced him like this?
Was this how my father felt at that time?
All sorts of thoughts pass by and eventually come to an answer.
“… I might be very clumsy. we are.”
“Yes, but you know how to make it not worse. We.”
Because he is a person who knows what is bad.
I guess that’s what it means.
Elric asked.
“What do you want to do when your child is born?”
“I want to take a walk through the flower garden together. I want to play hide and seek in the wheat field and feed them delicious refreshments. “What do you want to do, matriarch?”
“I am… .”
Elric imagined.
When this little life, which we don’t even know if it’s a boy or a girl yet, is born, what do we want to do with it?
It was Tyria’s words that gave a hint to the answer.
What she wanted to do was probably what she wanted as a child.
The answer came only after I realized it.
“… I want to say that I love you. a lot.”
Unlike his past where he was dishonest.
“I want to tell you that there is someone who really loves you.”
Even if the whole world is against you, I will be by your side until the end, and I will be your sword and shield.
Elric wanted to be a father who could reassure his child.
After answering, I suddenly burst out laughing.
Tyria also laughed, and the frustration went away a little.
I imagine a slightly brighter future.
“I want a son. Or would you prefer a daughter?”
“Both are good. “Well, why would there be any reason to choose just one?”
Tyria said somewhat jokingly.
“You just have to have both.”
Elric responded.
“Brothers, I always wanted you to be.”
“I want it to be noisy and peaceful.”
What followed was the future the two people envisioned.
It was a conversation where each person knew what the other lacked and tried to make up for it.

The man and woman were so clumsy that they went back for a long time.
So we were slowly preparing to become a family.
*
“Ah c-pal, that’s shit~!”
The shouting was Danal in the barracks.
“Budanzaaang!”
“yes!”
“Why are we farming~!”
Danal, who was shouting, was panting and drenched in sweat with his shirt off.
The same was true for other members.
Everyone is trying their best to cool off from the heat and replenish moisture.
The reason for this was no different.
Seolyeong Knights.
The name ‘Eye Shadow Knights’ was due to the fact that people who were not even capable of making eyesight came to help the people of the territory with their farming.
It’s been like this every time since I returned to Elric and Wibin.
-You won’t have anything to do for a while, so help out with the farming. I’ve seen the benefit of you, and I don’t want to cause you trouble.
Those were his words.
Does telling you to rest in peace and go farming is something that doesn’t even seem like something to say?
Isn’t there a good response to the large-joint sentence!!!
‘What is the reward? They said they would give me a raise in salary!’
Honestly, I was looking forward to it.
Yes, I delivered a young girl with no armed force to the western battlefield, but if a person has a conscience, shouldn’t they at least provide him with a decent house?
At least they shouldn’t be asked to farm!
I’m so heartbroken, but… I couldn’t bear to voice such complaints in front of Kasha, the Sword Demon.
In the end, all I could do day after day was cry and focus on my work.
Suddenly a thought occurred to me.
‘Oh, how long do I have to live like this?’
Surely for life?
Are you going to farm like an ox pulling a plow until it dies?
Goosebumps appear all over my body.
How dare you treat a loyalist like this when you own 7% of EW’s shares!
At least if you give me money, I won’t be angry!
It was a moment that made my teeth grind together.
-Is there anything?
Tyria’s voice was heard.
It was the entrance to the barracks.
Danal and the knights were startled and started getting dressed.
Even though I was complaining, my body reacted first to the surrender that had become inertia.
“Now, please wait a moment!”
Kwadangtang!
It was after some commotion.
Danal tried to calm his complexion and opened the barracks door.
“Oh, you’re here!”
“Are you here!!!”
“I don’t know if you were interfering with me.”
“no!”
While answering, Danal looked around.
I was filled with relief at the fact that Tyria came alone.
“Ha, but what’s going on… .”
Danal asked rather humbly.
Then Tyria looked around the barracks and let out a small sigh.
“I have received so much help from you all that I came to see if there was anything I could do for you. But I didn’t know the barracks would be this rough. “He should have taken care of it in advance, but I’m really sorry I couldn’t.”
“Well, that’s…” .”
Are they really going to criticize me for not cleaning it?
It was a moment of thought.
“I will order reinforcement of barracks facilities. And I heard you’re helping with the farming these days, so you don’t have to do that. I already told the matriarch. A knight must have the dignity of a knight. “It’s good to become friends with the people of the territory, but shouldn’t the dignity of a knight be maintained?”
thud!
Danal and the knights fell to their knees.
It was an act of infinitely voluntary will.
It was just a few words that brought them to their knees, made their eyes water and their heads drop.
“M-maniiiiim!!!”
“Please refrain from making loud noises. “Because you don’t want your child to be surprised.”
“Sigh!”
Grumbling, tears eventually flowed from the eyes of Danal and the knights.
Tyria, who now knew their identities, said with a chuckle.
“Please understand. The head of the family has never had a knight under his command, so he’s not good at this. But it’s clear that I care about you.”
The loyalty of the knights was already tilted towards Tyria.
“As I said, I am always grateful. And this is bribery.”
That loyalty was about to tilt again to the point of breaking the weight.
What Tyria held out was a bundle of gold coins.
The knot was slightly untied, and the knights were mesmerized by the brilliant light emanating from within.
I looked up in a daze and Tyria said, patting my stomach.
“Isn’t the baby going to be born now? These are reliable drivers who will protect our children, so we should always eat well. “I want you to go to town today and raise the restaurant’s sales.”
Have you ever felt an emotion that took your breath away?
If anyone asks, Danal will answer.
That’s today.
thud!
The knight shouted, hitting his forehead on the ground.
“I will be loyal until the end of my life!”
At that, Tyria just smiled slightly and waved her hand.
“It’s done. I’ll just go now. “It’s time to get checked out.”
The knights could not raise their heads until Tyria left.
So I couldn’t see Tyria’s expression in the end.
‘Phew, fortunately it worked out well.’
Tyria Portman.
A woman who has practiced living her whole life hiding her emotions from an early age.
Also, a woman who learned how to deal with people from Hoben Portman, who was called Iron Face.
The reason he played the role of a generous owner with an incongruous smile on his face was no different.
Apart from his actual gratitude towards them, it was because of the thought that Elric’s mercenary skills might provoke opposition from the knights.
Being a hostess was this difficult.
