215 – 77. To have a baby (1)

-Crack, crack.

Firewood put into the fireplace burns with sparks.

Snow falls slowly outside the window.

The snow that had fallen for several days did not stop even after painting the world white.

Judas sat in front of him, looked out the window blankly and played with Elijah’s belly.

Elijah sat on her lap, patted the dust in her arms, and looked out her window.

The dust quietly enjoyed her touch and made a pleasant sound.

Grung, growl.

Elijah succeeded in making her comfortable.

She established a detailed and elaborate department for the reconstruction of the Demon World.

Because the name Demon World has a negative connotation, it is now called ‘North’.

Accordingly, the department in charge was named ‘North Korea Reconstruction and Revitalization General Management Department’.

The talent to be in charge of the department was carefully considered and hired.

As a result, all Elijah had to do now was the final confirmation.

Permitting, rejecting, or suspending a certain matter.

The only thing we can do is to check whether corruption occurs occasionally.

The leisure time provided was more valuable than ever.

“It’s snowing a lot.”

Elijah said as she looked at the snowfall as leisurely as herself.

“Okay. Yuel and the dogs must be bored.”

There was a light layer of snow in the garden of the imperial palace.

It would be uncomfortable to run around outdoors.

This is the season when all the plants that boast of vitality become intimidated and show off their white clothes.

Winter has come.

*

Judah and Elijah came to the barn.

It was cold, but the interior was moderately warm.

This is the perfect temperature for animals to survive.

This was Elijah’s work. Although she had almost laid down her duties as emperor, she did not rest at all.

She used to invent magic items together with Epona, the magic tower lord and current vice-captain of the Imperial Wizards, and the warm stone that heats this stable is also part of that invention.

Cold weather.

Judah and Elijah came to help the animals that were bored in the barn.

The spotted puppies approached with their ears fluttering.

Yuel, who had been sitting blankly, pricked up his ears and welcomed the two.

“Ugh, I was bored. “Okay, okay.”

Judah stroked the tangled puppies.

Elijah was gently scratching Yuel’s neck next to him.

A time when I was playing with animals and resting peacefully.

Sudden news arrived.

“… “Richard?”

Richard and Beninita.

It was news that the couple’s child had finally been born.

*

“Richard!”

“Oh, Judah. “Are you here?”

The imperial guards were each given a beautiful mansion in the capital.

Richard was the same.

After greeting Judah lightly, he was polite to Elijah.

“Your Majesty. Thank you for taking the time to come.”

“Yes.”

Elijah received it indifferently, as usual.

Judas asked urgently from next to her.

“What happened? You gave birth to a child? Really?”

“Are you a little excited today?”

“Well, it’s fascinating and I’m curious….”

“This guy.”

Richard smiled mischievously and tapped her side as if he knew everything, and Judah cleared his throat sheepishly.

“Okay. Just as I said. Actually, it’s been about 3 weeks since I saw my child. “I told you late because I thought it would be good for Benny and Erin to rest until then.”

Benni is a nickname for his wife, Beninita.

And Erin was her child’s name.

“Do you want to go see it?”

“If it’s not rude, I’ll be happy.”

Elijah didn’t bother to answer, and she followed Judas with her arms crossed.

The maids of the mansion lined up following Richard, who took the lead, and greeted Judah and Elijah.

Judas also became accustomed to this kind of treatment.

In the first place, the emperor and the State Secretary are visiting, and if they are not treated well, the reputation of Richard, who invited them, will be hurt.

The neatly dressed old man who followed right next to Richard seemed to be the head of the house.

Richard said quietly while walking.

“Prepare the best meal suitable for the two of you.”

Richard respects Judah’s wishes, so she uses informal language like before when talking to him.

However, when mentioning Judah to others, I try to be as polite as possible.

No one can speak ill of Judah in front of her.

The butler also bowed his head in deference.

“Yes. “I will.”

The butler went off in another direction to give instructions on preparing the meal.

Richard, who is ahead, said.

From noble mtl dot com

“I informed the other guards, but it will take some time for them to come.”

She came straight because Judah had moved to Elijah’s teleport.

Richard did not ask Elijah’s understanding for calling other guards.

Whenever the guards noticed something while they were together, Elijah repeatedly said,

‘Judah’s will is my will.’

Judah would not like another royal guard coming.

Therefore, she would not hate Elijah either, so asking her would be ignoring what she had repeatedly said before.

“You will have the privilege of being the first to see it.”

“It’s a privilege…. Benny seems to think so too. “I am able to show my child to the kind Gukseo and the great emperor.”

“What a privilege….”

It is a privilege.

It is true in the sense that we see Elijah.

Elijah, the Pope and Saint of the Church of the Sun.

I hope that countless people will see her in real life at least once and be blessed.

But Elijah is busy playing with Judah.

“Your Majesty. “I would appreciate it if you could forgive me even if my wife is excited and nervous and says and does a little rude things.”

How rude.

Elijah also saw his wife, Beninita, a few times.

She didn’t do it often, but she did it enough to get an idea of what kind of character Beninita was as a person.

Yes, Beninita was a very transparent and kind person.

Even if she was rude, she really didn’t seem like she would be rude.

‘I think maybe…. ‘Wouldn’t that level of rudeness be the greatest?’

If what you expect is correct, it is within an acceptable range.

Therefore, she responded indifferently as always.

“Yes.”

*

Beninita was sitting in her reception room.

When Judah and Elijah entered, they hurriedly stood up holding the child.

Elijah stopped her with his hand.

“It’s okay to sit down. “I just gave birth, so I need to get plenty of rest.”

“Oh, yeah…” . Thank you, Your Majesty. Oh, and again, thank you for coming.”

Elijah looked at the creature in Beninita’s arms as if possessed.

A small thing wrapped in a beige blanket and hugged.

It’s round and soft, like freshly steamed cheese.

Child of Richard and Beninita.

Erin was now 3 weeks old.

The baby, whose hair had grown short, was staring blankly at Elijah and Judah.

“… Hi.”

Elijah took his mouth off her after a long time.

It was a greeting to a child.

But Erin just stared blankly.

Beninita hastily explained.

“Oh, I don’t understand words well yet and I don’t know how to say hello….”

“It’s okay.”

Elijah didn’t say this expecting an answer either.

There is no way a 3-week-old child can understand and respond.

‘Your eyes are open, but you won’t be able to see.’

I just wanted to say hello.

That’s all.

While Elijah was preoccupied with her Erin, Judah spoke with Richard.

“Woman? Man?”

“It’s my daughter. Isn’t she cute already? He looks like Benny, so he will be very pretty when he grows up. Damn, then the boys will stick around… ?”

“Hmm…. “If she resembles her father’s personality, she won’t be able to cling to her carelessly.”

“What does it mean?”

“Hmm. “You know it without me having to explain it.”

Richard playfully tapped and pushed Judas on the shoulder.

“You too, come closer and take a look. “How cute and pretty it is.”

“Oh my gosh, this guy’s arms outstretched. “It’s a mess.”

“You should try having a child too. “If you do more than me, it’s more, I don’t think it’s less.”

“… “I can’t deny it.”

Judah also stood next to Elijah.

She brought Erin to eye level with her and spoke.

She didn’t get close because she might be scared because of her size.

“Hello?”

Erin just stared blankly.

‘It’s not blood connection, but…. If you ask me, you could call her my niece. ‘It’s cute.’

She wanted to pet him, but Judas decided to hold back.

It may not be polite to touch a 3-week-old baby carelessly.

More than anything, it is so small and delicate that it is scary to touch.

“You need to grow up well and not be like your father. Understand?”

“That guy is that…” .”

While the two were bickering, Beninita spoke carefully to Elijah.

“Hey, Your Majesty. “If you don’t mind, could you bless Erin?”

Beninita’s rudeness was what Richard was concerned about.

This is at best.

A request to bestow her blessings on her own child.

Elijah expected it, and she is within acceptable range.

I wanted to do that even without being asked.

I wanted this little child to grow up happily.

“Yes.”

It wasn’t difficult at all.

More than anything, Richard made a significant contribution to the conquest of the demon world.

As a superior, the emperor, something like this should happen to his family.

Blessings do not cause transcendent phenomena like magic.

It is simply a wish for the subject to be happy.

Elijah gently placed his hand on Erin’s head.

“The sun’s protection will be with you and help you live a happy and healthy life.”

Beninita bowed her head and said thank you.

At that time, the door burst open and people rushed in.

“I came here because I heard that my nephew was there!”

“Where are you! “My nephew!”

The Royal Guards came in very excited.

Richard ran and hit him on the back.

“Be quiet, you guys… ! “The kid will be surprised!”

“Oh! I’m sorry!”

“Whoa…” .”

Dylan, who came in last, sighed.

“I told you to go quietly, but I couldn’t stop you. “It’s my fault.”

“Yes, you are right.”

“… ….”

The Royal Guard found Judah and Elijah a little too late.

“Ah, Your Majesty!”

Elijah raised his hand to greet her politely.

“Quiet.”

“Yep… ! It’s an honor to meet you. Your majesty.”

“Yes.”

“Judas. “You came first.”

The greeting with Judah was short.

I see her often anyway because of training.

“Well, I was fast thanks to Your Majesty.”

“Then, in that place hidden behind you….”

When Judas stepped aside, Beninita smiled and greeted him.

She noticed the guard greeting her and the child in her arms.

“Oh, oh… !”

“Wow. Oh my god.”

“It’s so small…” ? “Are you okay?”

“You guys are too big.”

Erin cried, holding Benny in her arms.

It was because several of her sturdy men came and made a fuss.

“Wow… ! What do we do?”

“Get out of the way. “In times like this, all you have to do is show a funny face.”

“Dike, your face is funny….”

“It’s a bit dirty to show to a child.”

“Get out of the way, you guys. “Don’t do anything that’s bad for our child’s mental health.”

Richard squeezed through the gap between them.

I picked up Erin, who was crying, and hugged her and comforted her.

“It’s okay. “They’re ugly, but they’re not bad kids.”

“What!”

While everyone was laughing and talking, Judas was looking at Elijah from a step away.

She was clinging to her side and was only looking at Erin.

Juda seemed to know what she was thinking.

Afterwards, dinner was ready.

The level of cooking was excellent enough to be compared to that of the imperial palace.

We had many conversations while eating.

Stories from all walks of life.

Whenever we get together, we always talk about old times.

“Now that I think about it, she once tried to bring a gift to Judas for her Majesty’s birthday.”

“Wow, how surprised I was back then. “What kind of spirit were you in?”

“Haven’t you had feelings for me since then?”

“I guess that’s it.”

“How can you go empty-handed when you go to someone else’s birthday?”

“That’s weird, man.”

Judas was at the center, talking and laughing.

Meanwhile, Elijah was quieter than usual.

*

The time has come to leave Richard’s mansion.

After saying hello, Elijah used teleportation to return.

However, the place she arrived was not the imperial palace.

It was a cage under the mountain.

“Huh? Ellie? Why are we here….”

Elijah was held in his arms.

Her eyes were deep and serious as she hugged the back of her neck and looked up.

“Me too, baby.”

“… Huh?”

“Baby. “I want it too.”

The reason why Elijah was quiet the entire time he saw Erin.

Judas also guessed.

Now that the conquest of the demon world was over, she thought that she would soon want to have children.

That desire became clear after seeing Erin.

“If you want to have a baby, there are things you have to do.”

After hearing Elijah’s words, Judah swallowed her saliva and then slowly pulled her by the waist.
