EP.105 #Afterlife 1 – New family (1)
Several more months have passed since the end of the war in the West.
The scars of war have not yet been erased.
Anyway, 20 years of war took away a lot.
The young people who will lead this era are those born after the war.
As they lived without knowing about a peaceful era, the peace they created was still full of creaks.
Everything will be okay.
As always, the wounds will heal, and only the scars called history will look back on those times.
This is an era where everyone dreams of a bright future.
Here in Wibin, there were people dreaming of their own sweet future.
“Oh, the child kicked.”
“Yes, I am very energized by who I resemble.”
In the study of the Portman family’s mansion, a fireplace was crackling.
There was a man and a woman sitting on the sofa in front of it… What can I say, it was Elric and Tyria.
Tyria was leaning her head on Elric’s chest, and Elric held her gently and stroked Tyria’s swollen belly.
There was a friendly atmosphere.
That was the time when the two reunited last harvest season.
We reminisced about our short separation, discussed the future, peeled off the golden wheat fields, and in the coming winter, we dealt with demonic beasts coming down the mountain or took advantage of free time to relax.
That winter is now over.
The due date is one month away.
Elric said.
“Looks like he’s going to have quite an accident, seeing as he’s putting his mother through such a hard time.”
“I guess it’s because I resemble you.”
“Hmm… .”
Elric’s cheeks turned red.
That was something Tyria had been teasing him with lately, and it wasn’t because the child in Tyria’s stomach was already showing his mischievous talents.
Of course, there is frequent kicking, or movement of the fetus. It’s normal for a mother’s tastes to change here and there.
There were even cases of making the calm Tyria cry or lose her temper. Without any reason.
-It is natural for your mood swings to worsen when you have a child in your stomach. but… The lord’s child is particularly serious.
There is no hardship like that.
Elric, who was reflecting on the past years, suddenly felt his body tremble.
It was that moment.
“Why are you shivering?”
Suddenly, Elric’s body shook.
My head turned, and Tyria was making an uncomfortable face again for no reason.
‘Oh my God.’
As the birth date approached, the mood swings that got worse seemed to be taking over.
Elric said as he felt cold sweat running down his back.
“Not when it’s really cold outside. “I did it because I felt chilled.”
“In front of the fireplace?”
“I don’t know when spring will come again.”
Elric hugged Tyria tightly and kissed her forehead.
Then Tyria’s expression softened.
“… “Here too.”
Tyria pointed to her lips.
Is it foolish to go beyond the discomfort, anger, and frustration?
Elric found the sight so endearing that he kissed Tyria.
side-
Behind the sound, Tyria laughed.
Elric breathed a sigh of relief.
Just like that, another crisis had been avoided.
smart-!
-My lord, madam. It’s meal time.
Another day was coming to an end.
*
Lately, every day has been stressful for the Portman family.
It wasn’t a sharp feeling of tension.
To be precise, should we say that it is tension caused by anticipation?
“Move quickly!”
It was because of preparations for a new owner.
Employees were experiencing the busiest time in nearly ten years.
It was because there was more work than usual.
“there! “Ma’am, you might slip, so make sure to wipe off the moisture!”
“Look! There was dust accumulating there! “What are you doing if your wife breathes it in?”
The expected date of birth is just around the corner.
The employees had no time to rest, from minor cleaning to laundry, to maintenance of the mansion, out of fear that it would have a negative impact on Tyria.
In particular, the head maid and R.D.O. were the most popular.
The two men cleaned the mansion every time the lord and his wife were away.

It was natural for the two of them.
The mansion, which had been filled with silence during the reign of the previous head of the family and filled with silence during Tyria’s reign, became cozy under Elric’s reign.
The time is soon when that warmth will bear fruit.
In the coming spring, when a child is born who will brighten up this mansion during the planting season, shouldn’t we be able to relax in order to avoid accidents until then?
Among them, the thing I cared the most about was the room of the unborn child.
“It’s the lady’s room! Hey, isn’t there a stain on the ceiling? It won’t work! Go and call Lord Danal!”
It was to the point where I had to say I was nervous.
Ever since it was revealed that the child to be born was a girl, the two have focused on decorating the room with great care.
“Aren’t there more pinks and yellows? huh? “Colorfully!”
“Ugh, head deacon! These days, even girls like blue! “It’s because he seems like such an ancient person!”
“Ugh! “Didn’t the head maid make the girl’s bed pink?”
“that… !”
Even as they bickered, there was a smile on their lips.
This is because there is no other time when the joy of being able to work here since Portman’s birth and be able to take care of three generations in old age is more real than these days.
At some point, the two stopped getting angry and started smiling.
“… “It’s already the third generation.”
“Ah, I never could have imagined it when we first came here.”
The two people reminisced as they looked at the cutely decorated room.
“It reminds me of the old days. Rdio. Wasn’t it like that when you were young? “As soon as I can save money for a house like this, I will escape.”
“But you also cursed the master, saying that Hoben was a damn evil servant.”
“Something like that happened. “I probably would have quit if Madame Jeondae wasn’t there.”
“Me too.”
What the two reminisce about was Elric’s mother, Lily Portman.
A woman who was so bright and lively that she brightened up the cold mansion.
-Starting today, you are the head maid and the head butler!
The woman who supported the previous head of the family, who was terrible at interpersonal relationships, was that kind of person.
A person who knows how to comfort and elevate others, and also knows how to make them happy.
-Ma, ma’am! What on earth are you doing!
-huh! I tried to cook it, but it all burned!
It was a bit of a rant.
Elric was a child who closely resembled Lily.
While reminiscing about her, Rdio suddenly spoke.
“Actually, when Madame Jeondae passed away, I wanted to quit my job.”
“So did I. “It would have been like that if you weren’t there.”
It might have actually happened.
Nevertheless, Elric was the reason the two remained in the mansion for such a long time.
After Elric left, it was because of Tyria who had been waiting for him.
There was a time when I thought that I would die without being able to see anything good for the rest of my life, but before I knew it, I had come to this point.
“What kind of person do you think the lady is?”
“Where can that stubborn blood go? Still, I just hope you do less than you did.”
“I too wish you were more like your wife. “How brilliant and beautiful you must be.”
“Are you saying you’re ugly, Master?”
“That can’t be true. Madame Jeondae was such a beauty, so how could you be ugly?”
Laughter burst out.
The sunny room that was once Elric’s room will now become the girl’s cradle and become another home.
“I just want you to grow up healthy.”
“I can’t be as healthy as you, Master.”
“Of course.”
It was like that.
“Inspiration! Why am I calling you again?”
Day after day, he came to me with great enthusiasm.
Behind him was Veron.
Rdio pointed to the ceiling.
“Please erase that stain over there. “The ceiling in this room was so high that the maids couldn’t clean it properly.”
“Ah-oh! Isn’t the article very messy?! ok? Veron! “You do it!”
“Yes!”
Shashashak!
Veron’s body turned into an afterimage for just 3 seconds.
“I’m done!”
The ceiling was sparkling with light.
Rdio and the head maid’s lips were filled with satisfaction.
“Of course it’s Veron. “Reliable!”
“Now the article is done!”
“Haha, that’s too much praise!”
“You’re really sick! What does a driver have to do with cleaning? “What do you think your article is about!”
“Isn’t he a quick and strong person?”
“A knight is one who moves without making a fuss. “Danal, you are a knight commander, but you are so loud, it’s a problem.”
“Okay, I understand. This was a different world. huh? right?”
Danal felt sick to his stomach again today.
It was one day a week before spring.

Time passes quickly again.
As the white winter of Wibin came to an end, small seedlings began to grow in abundance on the melted ground.
A field that grows green over the color of the soil.
And the laughter of lively people.
It is the season of fresh life.
And here was something else happening that made the season even more refreshing.
“Aaaah!”
“Ugh!!! ma’am!!! head!!! “Heady!!!”
Tyria has given birth.
