Rest(3)

The Snow War, which caused a stir in the Walled City, has come to an end.

It’s a snow fight held in a relatively quiet place, but the scale has grown so much that the streets are covered in snow.

“Okay! If we’re all done playing, let’s clean up!”

Go out and clean up. As it was an area with a lot of snow, there were enough brooms.

“hehehe~ It’s my first time cleaning snow.”

Marie sweeping away the snow with magic. Next to him, Deok-gu is holding a broom and sweeping up snow.

“Oh Yu, your precious princess, aren’t you saying something for making me clean your eyes?”

“Hmm… I wasn’t raised that precious! I’m just an ordinary farm girl, right?”

“······.”

“······.”

“············.”

“············Farm girl.”

“A farm girl who owns two million hectares.”

You have to have a conscience, why don’t you put ‘ordinary’ in front of your name?

“Ssi… Corin is making fun of us for living well at home.”

Are you upset? It seems like the Potato Princess gets tired of listening to it over and over again. But Marie looked up at me with the corners of her mouth twitching.

“Don’t you think about that? If you marry me, it will all be Corrin’s.”

“Whoosh….”

Marie’s approach is so blatant. Honestly, I was just shocked.

Marie leans forward with a very flushed expression.

Dunareff’s infinite wealth, his beautiful wife. How can you not be tempted?

“Don’t act strangely.”

I finally overcame the temptation and grabbed the top of Marie’s head.

“Aww…! It’s too much…”

“For now, let’s just enjoy this moment. When it’s all over… we’ll come up with an answer somehow.”

“······i’ll wait.”

Marie had a regretful expression on her face, but she quickly burst into laughter.

“But it was fun. It’s been a long time since I made a snowman.”

“I’ve been very busy these past few years.”

“Okay, this year will be the last one, right?”

“That will happen. Just make it that way.”

I stroked Marie’s head. I will take responsibility until the end for her, who met an unfortunate ending both in her love affair and in the previous episode.

“You too, Deokgu.”

“Kung?”

“Take care of Mom. When Dad isn’t around, you have to protect him.”

“Kung!”

What a relief.

Save this person.

* * * *

After a lot of commotion, the sweaty boys and girls decided to use the newly built open-air bath.

Everyone readily agreed because they were sweating in the cold, and Marie, Alisha, Hwaran, and others who belonged to the Corin Guardians all headed to the open-air bath together.

“Wow, junior Marie, did you really make the outdoor bath properly?”

Estelle seems impressed by the full-fledged open-air bath facilities.

“I should praise the person who created this open-air bath. Please tell me his name.”

“The magic tower slaves.”

“Yuck.”

Estelle, who was contemplating what to give, immediately collected it. She, too, is someone who would be trembled if she were a Magic Tower mage.

“Let’s go in quickly.”

Everyone wrapped themselves in long towels and carefully soaked in the open-air bath. It’s not that everyone gets along well, but they keep a strange distance and keep their butts pressed against the stone floor.

“Hmm…”

“Whoa…”

“······.”

Hwaran tapped the surface of the water without thinking, and Alisha glanced at the other side of the wall.

Marie and Estelle stared at each other as if they were having a strange war of nerves.

It’s not that our relationship is bad.

It’s not a bad thing by any means, but…

They understand from the beginning.

That we are enemies.

It’s an enemy called Yeonjeok.

“······ha.”

Josephine looked around at the women related to ‘him’ in this blatant wariness.

Marie Dunareff.

The next duke of the southern potato empire, Dunaref dukedom.

Her endless wealth alone makes her worth one of the most valuable figures on this continent, but she herself is a skilled person in the ranks of archmages.

Arisha Aden.

Candidate for the head of Aden, a famous swordsman.

A woman so gifted with the sword that the sword emperor Garand Arden was forced to nominate his illegitimate daughter as a candidate for the head of the family.

Although she seems to be outpaced by her older sister, Runia Arden, these sisters… are so intense that they are bizarre when it comes to love affairs.

Estel Hadassa el Ras.

Marie and the others are powerful, but her position is unique.

A child of God who receives God’s grace. The only authority figure who ended the long-standing religious conflict and unified the denominations.

Since he is the actual Pope, he may not be able to obtain the throne, but he is also a candidate for succession to the throne.

It is not for nothing that she is the most prestigious woman on the continent.

‘More than anything······.’

Josephine recalled the confrontation that took place in the royal capital last winter. It was such shocking news that it appeared on the front page of the newspaper, so I remember Cranel bringing it out in a huff.

King David’s unconventional proposal was that he wanted to marry both Princess SL and Princess Miriam to Corinne.

Even with Dunarepp’s endless financial resources, such a big deal is not easy.

“ha······.”

It’s a strange thing.

These three years. Corin Locke made her own some of the most influential and talented women in the kingdom.

what?

Coincidence is also something that can be reasonably doubted at this point.

Corin Locke.

He is clearly a good person, and his natural talent is outstanding… but why do we even think that that is not Corin’s true talent?

‘I think there will be a bloody war no matter who wins.’

Even without considering his parents or family background, the women around him are all powerful beings.

So much so that even if these women got together and started a civil war, the world would be in crisis.

“ha······.”

I’m worried, I’m worried. At the sound of Josephine sighing inadvertently, Alisha sneakily approached and asked.

“What’s wrong, Professor Josephine?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

Josephine did her best to hide a secret that could immediately destroy the girls’ relationship.

‘How can I tell you now that Hwaran is having Corin’s child?’

I told Erin to quickly calm down, but children are different.

These girls have an abnormal relationship centered around Corinne Locke. You cannot destroy it with just a word.

“That’s right, Hwaran. How are you feeling? I heard you get morning sickness when you’re pregnant.”

“uh?”

“huh?”

“???”

Arisha suddenly explodes a bomb. Everyone’s attention is focused.

“Morning sickness?”

“pregnancy?”

Marie and Estelle reacted the most strongly. The two people stared at Hwaran with shaking pupils, wondering if they had heard wrong.

A tacit agreement between both sides to begin after ‘everything is over’. Could it be that there is someone who has a winning card that can cut through the line and definitively declare victory?

‘Oh, wasn’t it a misunderstanding?!’

Marie, who tried to deny that it was her mistake, shook the surface of the water with her trembling hands.

“······me?”

And the center of all this controversy. Hwaran just tilted his head in response to Alisha’s question.

“I heard that even in the early stages of pregnancy, your body needs to rest. You need to take good care of yourself.”

“Well, wait, wait a minute…? Wait a minute, junior Arisha? What are you talking about?!”

Estelle is beyond embarrassed and angry. pregnancy? Dutch? Against whom? Of course there is only one person!

From noble mtl dot com

“Woah, Hwaran… Is this true?”

Estelle reaffirms an unbelievable fact. Hwaran stares at her blankly and then makes an expression that says he doesn’t know what she’s talking about.

“What is pregnancy?”

“uh?”

“Hmm?”

“Uh, Hwaran. You said you bought baby products.”

“uh.”

“With Professor Josephine.”

“however?”

Arisha also tilted her head at Hwaran’s unexpected reaction.

If you weren’t expecting a child, why on earth would you buy something like that? Why were you preparing in advance?

“Because you have a child? It wasn’t like that?”

“There’s no ‘yet’?”

“???”

What are you talking about? While the girls were feeling frustrated, Hwaran threw out an incomprehensible keyword.

“The storks can’t come because of the snow. So I’m going to get it later when the snow stops.”

“???”

“???”

“???”

If you spend the night holding hands with a man, a stork will bring you a baby.

It didn’t take long to realize the lack of health education, and Alisha carefully explained the differences between men and women.

“So… if a man and a woman do something, then through ejaculation, conception will occur.”

It was quite blatant health education.

“······uh?”

‘······uh?’

Would this be the case for middle school students who received classroom education about s*x for the first time in school?

Every time Hwaran listened to Alisha’s health education, her characteristic expressionless expression collapsed and a bright red flower began to bloom.

“This is how a baby is born. Do you understand?”

“······.”

The girls who had suddenly received health education also had a nervous look on their faces, but they were not shaking like the Dutch.

Only then did Hwaran realize that everyone but herself knew this shocking truth.

“wealth······.”

“wealth?”

“It’s unclean…”

The health education they received for the first time in their lives had a huge impact on the 4- and 15-year-olds.

* * * *

Integrating the military is not an easy task.

As many as 150,000 barbarians and 70,000 regular troops. Knights and wizards beyond the ten thousand are a headache just because of their organization.

What will the command system be like, who will follow whose orders, and why should they participate in this war?

Well, there are a lot of things to say, but basically, the justification is clear whether it is the northerners or the expeditionary force.

The Holy Expeditionary Force is united due to the saint’s false prophecy, and the Northerners are also receiving instructions from the demigods they serve.

Even though it may be impossible alone, I think it would be reasonable to defeat Tates Balthazar if we combine with the Southern Kingdom’s expeditionary force.

‘We fought each other in the previous episode.’

According to the original work, the wall collapses in an instant and the northerners who move south come into conflict with the kingdom.

Because of this, the response to Balthazar was further delayed, but this time it was different.

Many of those northerners are on our side now. If you can persuade the Valkyries well, you can use all their power on a daily basis.

“Are you there?”

For that reason, I interacted with the Valkyries on a regular basis.

“Ah, you’re here, Corin Locke.”

“Take out Nimja.”

“How dare you do that?”

Valkyrie Schooled was a beautiful woman with long black hair that reached down to her waist and golden yellow eyes.

I’ve known many Valkyries, but Skuld is the most unique Valkyrie among them.

He had a mysterious aura, as if he knew everything, more like a scholar than a warrior.

“Is there a reason you came to see me?”

“I want you to predict the future.”

“Aha~”

Schooled looked at me with a grin.

What sets her apart from other Valkyries. That’s because she is one of the Nornir who foretells fate.

A Norn who makes prophecies related to the fate of the world. Among them, Skuld predicts the future.

“Corin’s fate is so clear that I don’t think there is a need for me to separately prophesy.”

“······.”

I wanted to ask. Will I be able to defeat him and save the world? Can we have a happy ending?

Schooled seemed to have realized my intention and raised the corners of his mouth.

“Even if it means defeat, will you give up?”

“······Probably not.”

“Yes, so there is no point in trying to predict this fate. You won’t give up anyway.”

Is it better to fight without knowing than to have vague knowledge? That makes sense.

“Then, can you tell me my future?”

“······Even if you predict the future, it does not guarantee other futures.”

In short, even if you survive in the future, if you don’t win against Balthazar, you’re in trouble.

“is it so?”

“Foretelling fate is ultimately about reaching the end of clarity of cause and effect. You can never twist cause and effect.”

“Can I understand the probability to that extent?”

“That’s right. You could say it’s like seeing one of the ‘possibilities.’”

“It’s vague and vague,” Skuld said with a laugh.

“If it’s okay with you, I’ll take care of Corin’s future.”

“Boo, please.”

It’s a little scary. Since they say they can predict the future, I thought they might be reading a bad future.

If it were modern Earth, I would have passed over the story, saying I didn’t believe what the fortune tellers said.

Because the old man who was watching PT at the gym was also spouting nonsense. What is the reward of Yangnan? Ha ha ha ha ha.

But this is a world where gods, magic, and myths exist. So wouldn’t it be a bit more credible?

“hand······.”

“Oh, yes.”

Skuld opened my palm and stared at it as if reading the palm print. Then I close my eyes and remain silent for quite a long time.

“······I see a woman with a full stomach. You are leaning on her stomach and rejoicing.”

W, was it about entertainment? If it’s a woman who’s fuller than that… who is it?

Marie? Alisha? What is anger? Estelle? Miriam? Master Erin?

Damn, when I recite it like this, I guess I’m not a normal asshole?

“Ah, Corin-sama… you’re surrounded by so many women. Like that…”

“Why, why?”

“You don’t have to worry. You will bear fruit through your suffering.”

“Do you think I should be worried?”

“I see Corin vomiting blood and dying.”

Do you think I should be worried?!

“Corin. You deserve to die because of a woman. Ah, it’s a happy ending for a man.”

············yes?
