Elijah’s mood was tense.
There was no other reason.
Rene’s birth.
It was because the due date was approaching.
The chapel of the Great Hall is said to be day by day, and priests come and go.
The vigilance posture of the paladins just in case is so strict.
Also, what about the apostles?
They canceled all their external dispatch schedules and came back together.
“Do I even need to do this… .”
Renee scratched her cheek and smiled shyly.
It was the flower garden of Daeshinjeon where the breeze blows.
“I think this is not enough. It is none other than our child.”
Vera’s hand rested on Renee’s.
The expression that came to mind was a smirk.
However, in the midst of all that, there was a feeling of anxiety on his face that he couldn’t shake off.
“… These are children who will be born as new people. You have to keep in mind that there are people who might be targeting children.”
“Are there any big people who will aim for this way? .”
“There is nothing bad about being prepared.”
That was the reason Vera trembled here.
Elijah was beginning to intervene in the situation of the continent.

Of course, he is not actively involved in politics, but he is slowly opening the door as a role in reconciling conflicts between countries.
Rumors about Renee’s childbirth had spread all over the place, and according to the rumors, the attention of the continent was gathering.
“… If there are people who really want it.”
Vera’s expression turned bloody.
Renee replied with a ‘bubbly’ smile when he saw Vera’s bloody look.
“Wow, I don’t know who it is, but it’s really pitiful.”
Renee’s hand goes over Vera’s head.
He strokes the child as if praising him.
An embarrassment crept across Vera’s face.
“Please stop teasing me.”
“Ouch, that’s right. This is an order from the king of the gutter.”
Why is it that Idaji’s shrugging shoulders is so disgusting?
Vera glared at Renee for nothing, expressing a feeling close to a grudge.
Rene, who didn’t flinch even an eyebrow at it, was just stroking her full-term belly.
“It is heavy because there are two children in it. He is so healthy that he kicks a lot.”
Although he expressed dissatisfaction, his face was full of smiles.
Vera burst into laughter as Renee stroked her tummy with a face full of love.
“Aren’t you scared?”
“Are you going to be a mother?”
“… Yes.”
Renee’s eyes narrowly turned to Vera.
After looking at Vera for a long time as if trying to see through something, Renee came up with an answer.
“It’s scary.”
It was a positive answer.
“Can I do well? I think so. I’m still getting help from other people. I don’t think an idiot who can’t take good care of me can raise a child well… .”
Swallowing and swallowing words.
Renee remained silent for a while, then opened his mouth again with a smile on his face.
“Nevertheless.”
Renee clasped her clasped hands.
Then he spoke in a warm tone.
“I am not alone. There is Vera, there are other apostles and priests, and there are paladins. Because there are always people who support you in the surrounding town. I’m sure they’ll be fine.”
not alone
Renee knew how heart-satisfying it was.
He was someone who knew how beautiful it was to help each other, share joy and sorrow, and form a community.
“So is Vera, right?”
Vera’s eyes widened slightly.
Then, it was folded by drawing a fine arc.
“Yes… .”
Suddenly Vera realized.
that everything is different from the last life.
That he is no longer the one who rules alone, but the one who guards the fence from the highest position.
“… Obviously, you can do it.”
As if hinting at himself, Vera hugged Renee.
Then Renee said.
“Oh, I kicked it again. He must have felt that he was there.”
“It’s just a pleasure to see that even such a father likes him.”
“You’re making weird noises again.”
The garden was full of laughter.
Renee slowly closed her eyes and felt the four beats.

Own and Vera’s.
And the twins in the belly.
The beatings of the four families harmonized into one, making a strange sound pounding in my heart.
“Vera.”
“Yes.”
“Did you think of the child’s name?”
Vera’s body trembled.
There was no other reason.
This is because he was ashamed of himself for not giving an answer even though he had been asked for this three months ago.
“really… . What if I still haven’t thought about it?”
“No matter what you think, your name is… .”
“I do not like it. I like the name Vera has chosen.”
Rene’s stubbornness deepened Vera’s troubles.
‘name… .’
It was because it felt too heavy to choose a name for the child.
why not
Isn’t the name the identity that the soon-to-be-born child will live with for the rest of his life?
Isn’t it a companion who will be with you for the rest of your child’s long life?
Hundreds of names I wrote and erased because I thought it was impossible to choose such a name.
Vera let out a long breath, again delaying the answer.
“Give me a little more time.”
An answer that only knows how to be serious.
It was only natural that René laughed again at that.

Only ten days have passed since that day.
The strife has begun.
“Shut up-!”
Renee’s suppressed moan echoed through the cabin.
There was a deep tension on the faces of Theresa and Marie, who arrived as a midwife.
“Hey! Are you ready?”
A word to Vera.
Nodding at it, Vera shot the divinity straight into the sky.
It was kind of like a signal that the work had begun.
Woo-woo-woo!
The holy sword cried.
At the same time, the divinity began to burst out from all over Elia.
“Rohan.”
Rohan, who had been waiting near the hut for several days, nodded nervously.
“Then I will open it.”
Saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and released his powers.
It is nothing other than opening a new world.
All of this was a process for it.
As I have said again and again, the child to be born is a god-man.
In other words, if you plan to give birth in the human category, there may be some variables.
It is necessary to create an environment so that the children who have grown up eating the divine realm in Renee’s stomach can safely come out to the outside world.
Vera’s countenance was bustling.
His body movements were also in a form that was hurriedly different from usual.
A situation in which he lost his cool before the birth of a child.
Vera told Rohan to leave the hut.
“I will help… .”
“Where are you going? You have to stay close to the saint!”
Theresa screams.
Vera’s body trembled greatly at it.
The regretful feeling that came to mind only later.
Vera, who had become an idiot at the moment he finally approached, approached Renee, frowned.
Renee looked at Vera with a frown on his face.
Then he reached out and grabbed him.
“Fine… !”
While speaking, his teeth clenched and cut off.
However, there was a smile on his lips.
Vera’s eyes grew tearing apart.
Whoops-!
There was a lot of strength in the hand that was holding it.
‘You have to calm down… !’
He bit his teeth, realizing late that seeing him in a hurry might make René uneasy.
And I put my forehead on Renee’s hand.
“It will be fine. Everything is perfect and the kids are healthy, so nothing will ever happen.”
A murmur continued, not knowing whether it was reassuring her or saying it because I wanted to reassure myself.
Vera’s breathing became rough.
Renee looked at Vera like that, and asked with a smile.
“Vera… .”
“Yes, I am here.”
“Your name, did you think of it?”
Vera’s fingertips trembled.
Her gaze turned to her white-blue eyes that were shining even at this moment.
After a moment of tender lips, Vera answered in a tone of weeping.
“… Yes.”
Renee smiled brightly at that moment.
“Can you tell me?”
Vera rested his forehead on Renee’s shoulder.
And whispered carefully.
“My son’s name is Lennon. My daughter’s name is Lenny. In the word of the gods, it means the stars and the sea.”
The name that came out after a long, long time of deliberation contained the wishes of Vera.
May I become a child who shines like the stars in the sky, and I wish I become a child who is like the wide sea that gently waves.
So I hope that I will become a child who leads the lost walkers everywhere.
At the name finally uttered, Vera could only laugh.
Renee also made a satisfied face.
She smiled beautifully, even though she was in a painful frown with cold sweat soaking her whole body.
“It’s such a good name.”
Immediately after saying that, Renee suddenly shook his body greatly.
screaming at the same time.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah-!”
“It has begun!”
Theresa shouted, and Vera felt his heart sink.
what to do
As my hair was turning white at that thought, luckily Renee gave Vera a job.
chin-!
Renee’s hand gripped Vera’s hair.
Vera’s expression darkened.
no way.
The moment that thought came to mind, what he had envisioned became a reality.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah-!”
Boo-wook-!
Vera’s hair was plucked into bundles.

The night was full of madness, screams and pain.
In the northern forest of the Great Hall, the screams did not go away all night, and the divinity that flowed down through the open heavenly gates dyed the night pure white.
Although everything was over, the priests still continued their prayers in the Great Hall.
The Paladins were wary of the wall while forgetting the night.
At the hut of the northern forest, in the midst of that, silence finally came.
“Okay. Good work! Very long!”
Theresa praised Renee in a weeping tone.
In doing so, he handed the children who had wiped off the blood to Renee.
“Come on, see? They are very pretty children. I will become a handsome man and beautiful woman just like the saint.”
Renee’s head turned.
His throat was rested from crying all night long, and his body was drooping from exhausting all his strength.
However, in the midst of that, René reached out.
This is because what should be called maternal love was in her.
“Child… .”
my child.
Me and Vera’s child.
Recalling that, she opened her arms, and Theresa put the child in Renee’s arms.
Renee looked at the child with half-closed eyes.
As he did so, he burst into tears.
“Vera… .”
“Yes… .”
Vera also had a face full of weeping.
He embraced Renee and the child with both arms and continued speaking in a posture that seemed to create a shadow.
“This is our child.”
“Lennon, it’s Lenny.”
“Leni was born first. You have become a sister.”
Renee laughed and cried.
The newborn child was wrinkled.
His eyes were closed and his body was curled up.
In terms of universal beauty standards, a newborn baby could be said to be really ugly, but nevertheless, the two thought that children looked more beautiful than anything else in the world.
Renee, unable to contain the overwhelming emotions, finally burst into tears.
With a red face, he said in a calm voice.
“The hair… It’s black and white… .”
I recited the shape of the child.
His daughter, Lenny, had dark hair.
His son, Lennon, had white hair.
Anyone can see that they are the children of two people.
The skin was still red, but it will soon turn white.
As the children grow up, they will become beautiful men and women who will be admired.
He was the child of himself and Vera, so surely it will be.
Vera said nothing and just embraced my family.
The emotion that came to mind was a form he had never felt in his life, so he had no idea how to react.
My heart is pounding and my stomach is pounding.
My head was hot, and I felt like my eyes were about to burn from the tears that got hotter than that.
However, only a smile comes to mind.
Vera forgot everything and laughed.
The restlessness of the past, the worries about the future, and the empty, wrinkled scalp somewhere.
Right now, this overflowing happiness is so great that he forgot all about it and burst out laughing.
