How To Live As A Writer In A Fantasy World chapter 158

Chapter 158

My mother gave birth to my first Dave when I was 21, and 7 years later, when I was 28, she gave birth to me. And 17 years have passed and I am now exactly 45 years old.

He looks like he’s in his early 30s because he’s in his early 30s, but he’s actually a Yonsei who is looking at his 50s soon. One more drink, her father is 50, five years older than her.

Even with the common sense of a previous life, and with the common sense of this world, it is quite old to have children. Even in this world, contraceptive technology is well developed, so it’s rare to see a late-daughter.

However, this is only among the nobility, and commoners tend to be lazy. This is because contraceptive technology is still widespread only among the aristocracy, not the commoners.

However, seeing a younger sibling at the age of 45… In reality, it’s not a daughter, but a granddaughter. It would not be strange if I married Marie right now and had a child, but my parents are a very rare case.

Even if my younger sister, Lily, who will be born right now, calls me Dad, other people will take it for granted, and if I call her brother, they will look at me strangely.

“Honestly, we never imagined that we would have Lily, too. I thought it would be okay not to take medicine because I was my age. But like this… Hoho. I’m a little embarrassed to say this.”

“Isn’t it dangerous? People say that even if you are over 40, there is a high risk of old age.”

“That’s fine. If you keep mana cycled, it’s safe for both the child and the mother. Of course, it’s better to invite a priest just in case.”

My mother, Cecily, and I were now enjoying refreshments in the drawing room and having a friendly conversation.

The seating arrangement was a bit unusual, with my mother and I sitting side by side, and Cecily alone sitting across from each other.

Cecily is a guest, so this arrangement is natural in a way, but her mother has already noticed what Cecily is trying to get permission from. If she had been willing, she would have me and Cecily seated side by side.

But that didn’t mean she didn’t give her permission completely. She’s sure that Cecily knows that too.

“And there’s another way. It’s a method that can only be used until it stabilizes, but it’s definitely effective.”

“May I ask that?”

“Well… let me just tell you that it’s a bit savage.”

“…Aha. I think you know what it is. Well, the Baron is a red lion, so it must have been easy.”

“Ho-ho. He’s a little strong.”

“… …”

The exhibition started in June. And today is the end of January, after the new year.

Roughly counting the time since the end of the exhibition until now, it is at least six months, which means that a lot of effort was put into it every night during that time.

Even though she was busy with work for Youngji recently, she focused her energy on her mother, so no matter how hard she was, the red lion would have been quicker.

I respect you. father. I wish I had the same physical strength as my father.

“By the way, the princess doesn’t have a brother? I think I didn’t hear it last time.”

“I am the only child. My parents had me and I didn’t have any plans.”

“I heard that elves regard the night as a ritual, is it possible that the demons are for similar reasons?”

“No. Asmodians have a very long menstrual cycle just like elves. And most of them overlap with the evil cycle, so it’s a bit more difficult for men.”

Hearing that answer, I shifted my gaze to the top. Now, except for the tip, Cecily’s horn is completely red.

The sound of musical instruments coming soon like the last exhibition. Luminus also told me to take the contraceptive pill when going to Helium, so the timing is exquisitely perfect.

If I had gone without taking my medicine, the mixed race of humans and demons would not have been born for the first time. I can’t help but think I’m lucky.

“As expected, little is known about the demons, so each and every one of them is amazing.”

“If you have more questions, feel free to ask.”

“Okay? Then…”

As if everything went well, the mother opened her mouth while maintaining a gentle smile.

“Where did you like our Isaac?”

“… …”

It was a full-bodied boulder. The atmosphere was the same as before, but the weight of the questions was never the same.

Cecily momentarily flinched at the question raised by her mother’s smile and then straightened her lips. The two hands that were hidden under the table were weakly captured.

I was also a little nervous and started watching their conversation. Because this wasn’t a problem that could be solved if I intervened.

Of course, if Cecily is at a disadvantage, I will help her. I’ll be sad if I don’t take sides with Cecily as my woman already.

“Actually, I’ve been aware of it since the last exhibition. No matter how close you are, you won’t visit the mansion. That’s the princess of one country.”

“…you knew.”

“Yes. Not only that, but the look in which Princess Cecily looked at our Isaac. As the same woman, I could tell. They were the eyes of a woman in love. Warm affection, love, and… a sticky desire.”

“… …”

When her mother finished speaking, Cecily’s face hardened a little. At that time, she might be upset because it would have been difficult to even keep her sane due to the evil cycle at the time.

But Cecily is well aware that saying those words now is only an excuse. For now, the priority was to sit still and listen to her mother first.

“Princess, you know. Isaac is already engaged to a child named Marie.”

“Yeah, I know.”

“Did you talk to the boy?”

“It was resolved smoothly.”

“Hmm. It was resolved smoothly…”

Mother put down the teacup gracefully and stroked Lily’s growing belly.

Then, as if preoccupied with something, he looked up at the ceiling and blinked, then looked at Cecily again.

“May I ask how you solved it? I’m a little curious.”

“Yes. Actually…”

Cecily told her mother exactly what she had said to Marie. During an argument with Marie at the time of the exhibition, she revealed her true feelings and plans for the future.

I already knew this, but Cecily is very nervous compared to then.

Should it be said that it is an attitude that resembles an interview, or that it is being judged by her mother?

Fortunately, the mother said that the more she listened to Cecily’s story, the brighter her expression became. It’s clear you like it.

“It’s so… moving. To protect Isaac regardless of the difference in lifespan… And even his descendants.”

“If I give up on love and live a life filled with regret, I will live a life that I miss. It’s from Zeno’s biography.”

“Yes. I know. Thanks to that line, the friendship between different races has increased.”

“By the way, Baroness. Do you know that? That’s what Isaac said to me before the book came out.”

“Yeah?”

At Cecily’s shocking confession, my mother looked at me with her eyes wide open. She seemed to have misunderstood her a bit, but what she had said to her was true, and she couldn’t help but panic.

My mother looked at me with a subtle expression for a while, then smiled and gently stroked my hair. It’s a touch that seems to soothe a small child, so it’s a bit embarrassing.

After all, no matter how much the child grows up, in the eyes of the mother, he seems to be a lovely son.

“Ho-ho. She’s also true. It’s only now that I understand the reason why the princess fell in love with me. If I said that, wouldn’t any other woman fall for it?

“I was really moved when I first heard it, too, because I can decide whether my life with that person will be a painful regret or a nostalgic memory.”

“Hmm…”

Why does it mean that the shame is mine? I didn’t say anything and just coughed.

All the while, my mother did not stop stroking my hair.

“I understand Princess Cecily’s feelings. In fact, it has been out of my hands since Marie gave her permission.”

“then…”

“But before that.”

Cecily, who thought she had been accepted, was about to rejoice, when her mother interrupted her on the way. She stopped her hand stroking my hair, then slipped her down and pinched my cheek tightly.

I don’t know if it was a slight pinch, but I felt a tingling pain as I pinched it with force.

“Aww! Uh, mother?”

“My Isaac should be a little scolded. I was worried that something like this might happen because of his caring and kind personality.

“Sin, I’m sorry! I never did that on purpose!”

“That’s why I’m more worried about this mother. Marie and her daughter will be officially married, but what about Princess Cecily?

“I… Baroness. I’m fine…”

Cecily was seldom flustered and tried to calm her mother.

“It’s not okay at all. Although Cecily knew that Isaac was Zenon and fell in love with him, unlike Marie, it would have been the same even if I was a princess. Zenon is like God’s salvation to the demons. It must have been there, isn’t it?”

“Yes, yes… that… correct.”

“That’s more of a problem. You have that kind of will, but you only care about Marie? Isaac. You’re really going to be punished by Mora-sama. So you have to take care so that Princess Cecily isn’t lonely. Okay?”

“Oh, I see! I see!”

“Whoa…”

My mother sighed and patted my elongated cheeks. It was difficult to calm down because of the tingling sensation.

“Then… the princess won’t be officially engaged to my son?”

“Oh. Don’t worry about that. If I go back to Helium, I’ll tell my parents, too. It’ll be easy when I find out that Isaac is Xenon.”

“I’m glad. If you regret this decision in the middle, always tell me. I will humbly accept it.”

“My heart will never change. Even if Isaac returns to Mora-sama’s side, I will live in the memory of him.”

“I like it.”

Her mother smiled warmly as she seemed to like Cecily, whose determination was outstanding. No matter how old she is, when she smiles, fine lines are bound to appear, but her mother didn’t even notice it.

Then, the mother stroked her stomach with one hand, took a sip of tea elegantly, and opened her mouth in a more relaxed tone.

“From now on, I should call you Cecily, not a princess. Marie calls you baby, but you must be difficult.”

“Ah…! Thank you very much. May I call you mother-in-law?”

“Sure.”

“Thank you. Mother-in-law. As I said earlier, I will protect this estate and the descendants of the Michelle family for the rest of my life.”

“You don’t have to. You have to find your happiness.”

“This is my happiness. Doing the best I can for the benefactor who saved the demons. Without Isaac, I would not have been able to sit here, and furthermore, I would have had to spend my whole life in Helium.”

Mother smiled bitterly at the ardent devotee’s reaction. She then looked at me and shrugged her shoulders as Cecily couldn’t stop her like that.

Well, thanks to that, my mother clearly knew just how much Cecily loves me, so it’s no big deal.

“Do all demons have the same thoughts as you?”

“Yeah. In the past, demons would have been treated as demons, but as your mother knows, it’s completely different now. Besides, as the romance between Jin and Lily was rediscovered, these words arose as well.”

“What do you mean?”

“Love is difficult for demons, but the decision to love is when you have the courage to dedicate everything to that person. Even if you turn into a demon, your sincerity towards that person will not change.”

“… …”

I saw that in the newspaper. It was written by one critic, but it must have been after the 12th volume of Zeno’s biography came out.

However, I know it was buried due to the mixed race problem at that time, but Cecily seems to have been looking for it. Perhaps, if Lilith’s past comes out, that word won’t be focused again.

It’s philosophical when it’s good, and it’s cringy when it’s bad, but it will impress people because it’s an era.

“In fact, demons turn into demons when they lose a loved one or when they experience comparable despair.”

“…and you, Cecily?”

“I don’t care if Isaac dies a natural death. But if something unexpected happens… I’m ready to become a demon too, mother.”

“I don’t care if your choice is like that… But I’m still worried. Should I attach an escort to Isaac just in case?”

My mother looks at me and looks at me with worried eyes. I don’t need an escort right now, but after I reveal that I’m Xenon, maybe I’ll attach one or two people.

Siris is an errand and Arwen’s escort, so it’s difficult, but the only possibility is to attach Gartz from Helium. However, other countries may take the blame.

First of all, since I am a citizen of the Minerva Empire, there is a high possibility that the Minerva Empire will give me an escort. Even in the Kingdom of Teres, they will check in every moment by saying that they will be escorted, but the Empire will protect them well.

‘Oh right. Savior.’

Come to think of it, I heard that the Savior also took a cardinal on a pilgrimage to find me. I’m making a fuss about treating me like a saint, but they’re sure to interfere too.

The moment I reveal my identity, the world will be in chaos. Because Luminus-sama is trolling, he has no choice but to hide his identity.

“The escort… First of all, until Isaac reveals his identity, Helium will escort him. Sir Gartz Ballak, your mother will know well.”

“You mean the knight who had that horn. Does that person know that Isaac is Xenon?”

“Yes. I know. He is a trustworthy person because he speaks little and has strong self-control.”

“Then that’s good. Then when are you planning to go to Helium?”

I answered that question instead of Cecily.

“I’m planning on three days from today. I have to finish the 14th volume. Cecily decided to come back at that time.”

“I see. So, how many days are you planning to stay in Helium?”

“maybe…”

“I’ll probably be staying at Helium all this vacation. I got permission from Marie as well.”

Before I could even speak, Cecily quickly intercepted me. The only reason I couldn’t help but panic, was that it wasn’t part of the plan.

It is true that Marie allowed it, but staying at the Helium for the entire vacation was unexpected.

“Oh, then… Maybe?”

“Yeah. I’ve already made the decision. Same goes for Isaac.”

“Hoho. Isaac?”

“Yes Yes?”

Why is it that I am so nervous at my mother’s call? When I answered in amazement, her mother opened her mouth, gently stroking her tummy.

“Make sure to bring your medicine so that the title doesn’t get confused. Okay?”

“…Yeah.”

“My son is very popular. I’m worried that this might confuse a woman again.”

Exactly two days after my mother said that.

“Greetings. This is Adelia, who will be training from me starting today.”

“Oh, hello? It’s been a while.”

“…Sister Adele?”

Adelia came to our mansion. Not even in casual clothes, but in a neat black robe like Nicole.

As I stared blankly at Adelia, my father opened his mouth with his characteristic solemn voice.

“Nicole asked me to teach this child. You can use it as an escort when you take over as head of state in the future.”

“I… are you asking for a favor?”

“Uh… yeah.”

I shook hands with Adelia with a puzzled expression on her face. Then, her face turned slightly red, and her eyes caught on.

What’s more, the clasped hands are not tight enough, they are gently rubbing them. It’s as if you don’t want to get out of here.

“My son is very popular. You think so, Lily?”

“… …”

Mother smiled mischievously and stroked Lily’s sleeping belly.
