387 – Glad the prince is here! – 1

The banquet to commemorate the safe return ended in a bright atmosphere. Since the banquet was only attended by family members or prospective families, there was no need to worry about other guests, and servants who devoted themselves to the family and county could enjoy the banquet, so the entire castle was like a huge banquet hall.

If there was a small flaw, it was that the truth that shouldn’t have been revealed right before the banquet was discovered, but aside from that stain, there was no fuss. Even that was somewhat exaggerated and scolded only with words.

“I wanted to celebrate all week.”

“It’s a pity. Had it been a vacation, I would have enjoyed it more leisurely.”

Just before returning to the academy after the banquet, I replied with a smile to my mother who was talking while holding my hand.

She erased the regret that even her mother had faintly left at those words and smiled at her face. Her answer was playful, but she also said that she was satisfied with the banquet she enjoyed this time.

“I will definitely do it this winter.”

“Yes, of course.”

At her words, she quietly added, she nodded her head with a deeper smile. If it was this winter, it wouldn’t be strange to have a banquet for a whole month instead of a week.

‘It’s not a day to celebrate.’

This winter is not just a snowy season. It is a monumental time when Mar finishes her three-year academy life and graduates. In other words, it is also the day Mar and I get married.

It is indeed an auspicious day. Privately, the family is growing, and in public, isn’t it the day when the Krasius family establishes an official relationship with the duchy? Even if my mother opened the family safe, I could understand it.

“I’d love to see you next time you’re wearing a white dress.”

“Yes, mother!”

My mother, who gave me a goodbye hug with her smiling face, approached Marr before I knew it and spoke softly.

Unsurprisingly, Martha smiled broader than ever and was delighted with her blatant virtue.

‘It’s a white dress.’

Marga, who usually wears a red dress, imagining her wearing a white dress made her smile involuntarily. It would really suit her, but this winter will be the first and last time Marr will wear her white dress.

I decided to think that way because it would be difficult if it wasn’t the last one.

After she returned to the academy, she lived a peaceful life. During her regular class time, she goes to the president’s office and hangs out with Maru, when Beatrix is in class, she plays with her, and when it’s club time, Louise and Irina join her. It was a daily routine enough to melt away both the body and mind.

“Mar, did you change your perfume?”

“Ah, yes. Is it strange…?”

“No way. Any scent goes well with Marr.”

She passed the time with Marr sitting on her lap, still doing her business.

Mardo was shy at first, but as time passed, she might have gotten used to it, and when she got tired from working, she leaned against my chest and closed her eyes. She was cute because she seemed to have a cat purring in her arms.

Of course, to others, they may look like a cold-eyed couple, but this combined sitting also has its own merits.

“Oh, Carl. Can you look at this for a minute?”

“Of course.”

Marquez has the great advantage of being able to help her work right away. She is an advantage that everyone can understand and appreciate.

“The class competition will be held soon, and this year the enthusiasm of the students is greater than last year. I think we need to check the budget plan again.”

Then, as Mar handed her the papers, her words froze for a moment.

“…Certainly has a bigger list of expenses than last year.”

“Isn’t it? Maybe it’s because there are a lot of freshmen who entered after seeing the prince and Beatrix unnie, so they were overflowing with enthusiasm.”

As I tried to open her mouth, awakening her stiff body, Marr muttered tiredly.

Class competition, one of the official schedules for the 2nd semester of the academy. As an inspector of the academy, he knows all of the official schedule of the academy, but it seems that he will not be able to forget the match against the class even if he resigns from the position of inspector.

You can never forget a human child. Because I have bitter memories of failing to control my strength, making the noble royal family vomit blood, and receiving the rare punishment of being placed on probation. Unless I have amnesia, I will never forget the class battle.

Anyway, the class competition tends to start a little early in the schedule for the second semester—

‘It’s already right in front of you.’

It feels like it starts even faster this time. How long has it been since you returned to the academy, do events already happen? Machines can also break down if they run without stopping, but people can’t be bothered.

Of course, the academy is operating normally without delaying or pulling back the schedule. I ate the early part of the second semester because of the war, so it feels like I’m starting early.

‘…This time there won’t be anything like last year.’

The nightmare of last year passed quickly through my head. A major accident occurred in the last game after proceeding safely without any accidents. The sad memory of having to fill the void when an outsider from Louise’s class suddenly escaped.

It is still traumatic to the point of kicking the blanket while sleeping, but this year, such a disaster will not happen.

‘There are no variables.’

Last year, all the wizards in the Mage Tower were summoned because of the upheaval in the north. Because of that summoning order, outsiders from Louise’s class were also summoned. But this year, the North has been pacified, and the East has been quiet for decades. There’s no way an incident like the magic tower issuing an emergency summons will happen.

If, very, if something urgent happens in a place neither in the north nor the east, I can’t guarantee how the situation will unfold, but I can’t believe it will happen.

In the first place, if such an incident occurs, not only the magic tower will be summoned, but I will also be taken to the system.

***

I wandered the hallway endlessly. This is the first time I feel helplessness and nervousness since becoming the crown prince.

I feel like going crazy. If I could do something, if I was busy moving for the best results, I wouldn’t feel this feeling. If the results were different depending on my efforts, I would have focused on reason rather than emotion.

However, in the current situation, there is nothing I can do. Only in the hands of others, everything must be left to heaven.

‘Please.’

That’s why I prayed to the heavenly Enen and the great emperor who protects the empire. Please grant me protection, please let the work end safely.

I want rain to give birth to a child safely, and to make the child healthy without any discomfort.

‘Please, I hope both of you are healthy.’

It is unacceptable for Rain to go wrong while giving birth to a child, or for a child to go wrong. I cannot accept a future where either of them leaves me.

The rain came like light to me who was waiting for the day to die. It is the rain that supported me to advance as the crown prince.

He is a child that he barely had while working excessively. She is a child who must be born even for this imperial family and empire.

So nothing can be lost. Nothing can be given up

“──! ────!”

“───!”

‘Damn it.’

I bit my lip at the sound of high voices and moans coming through the door.

I wanted to go in right away, but I held back. Even if I go in, it will only interfere, and it will not help Biwa Ai in any way.

‘…Are you all right?’

The helplessness and nervousness that ate away at my chest were turning into anxiety before I knew it. In fact, Rain’s due date is not today.

Of course, it is understandable that there is some error in the scheduled date, but if the error is on a weekly basis, the story is different. There is a lot of anxiety about whether something is wrong or if the child is wrong.

Though it is fortunate that it is not a premature birth that would be classified as immature.

“Your Highness, don’t worry. The best medical staff in the empire have gathered, so nothing will happen.”

From noble mtl dot com

The escort knight, Sir Hendrick, opened his mouth in a low voice, as if someone else felt my anxiety.

As the crown prince, it would be embarrassing to receive consolation from a subordinate, let alone show a calm appearance. However, how could he be calm when he was not a crown prince but a single father right now?

“Yes, that’s right. Besides, Rain is normally healthy.”

However, unlike his heart, his mouth pretended to be calm. That was the last remaining reason as the crown prince.

“Your Highness.”

“Director of the Imperial Household?”

While I stopped pacing and looked at the door blocking the rain, the head of the imperial household came.

“What is the head of the Imperial Household doing up to this point?”

“The enemy of the imperial family will appear in this world, so how can your convictions remain silent?”

At that, the corner of his mouth went up slightly.

As the name suggests, the head of the Imperial Family is in charge of the imperial family, and one of his duties is updating the imperial family list. This means that rain has come in advance because the baby will be delivered safely.

Sir Hendrick’s straightforward consolation and indirect encouragement from the head of the Imperial Household. Patting from both sides seems to loosen my heart a little–

“Your Highness!”

Suddenly, the tightly closed door opened.

“It ended safely! Her Highness the Crown Princess is healthy and pretty—”

I couldn’t hear what he said after that. It was because the baby’s cry resonated as if to show off one’s health.

His hair went gray. Even though it was obviously the news he was eagerly hoping for, even though he had only waited for this moment, he strangely just stood there blankly.

“Your Excellency, I am the head of the Imperial Household Department. The royal grandson has been born. Her Highness the Crown Princess is also in good health.”

His body did not move until he heard the head of the Imperial Household urgently taking out the communication tool and reporting it.

It was only then that I saw Rain, who had just been handed a child, lying on the bed and smiling hard.

“Your Highness.”

The rain I saw approaching said with a still struggling, but bright smile.

“She is a pretty daughter who looks just like me.”

I cried without realizing it.

***

As soon as I arrived at the dorm and was about to go to sleep, the communication port let out a loud alarm sound.

It was an exhilarating sound like a fanfare, not the obnoxious warning sound from the last summons, but it wasn’t particularly comforting. The louder the communication phrase, the greater the number of text messages.

f*ck, even that one is purple. It’s about the imperial family.

‘Wow.’

And as soon as I saw the text message sent to the communication port, my sleep ran away.

[ Under the protection of Enen and the protection of the great emperor, a noble royal descendant was born, so all the servants who serve Livnoman should rejoice that the enemy of Livnoman has come to this world. ]

The first child born between the crown prince and the crown princess.

The final king of legitimacy to put an end to the current imperial family’s only weakness was born.
