579 Blessings.
Eventually, Ain returned to the capital.
Sylvard and Warren told him to rest, but Ein kept moving on the ground in the Iron Nation. That is why he continued his work, thanking everyone for their words.
That said, I'm always thinking about Krone in my heart.
She is still not in good health. Sylvia who returned to the King's capital with Ain is always next to her, and her physical condition is managed by a well-developed system.
But I still don't know what kind of disease I'm still suffering from... "
For Ein, it was a time for rest.
It was the second night when he returned to the capital.
"... how is the future queen?"
After finishing his work in the office, Katima visited under Ain and said with a strange expression.
Katima herself, even though she hasn't worn Dill's child, is kind. On the other hand, Ain said in a sinking voice that could not contain her worries.
"It's still the same..."
Needless to say, it was all about Krone.
Krone has not been feeling well since spring. At first, I was trying to cover up for my official duties, but one day I collapsed and the castle was in a hurry.
From that day on, Krone's physical condition has not improved.
Katima also sighed at Ain, who replied harshly.
"I decided to stay at the castle from today."
Huh?
"If there's anything I can do to help, that means." "I can run right away."
Ein naturally scolded Katima, saying, "No, you can't do that."
Still, Katima said that she didn't care, and said that the current statement was after consulting with Dill.
"I was planning to stay in the castle again..."
"My father cares about me." "I'd rather spend some time in the castle than I used to..."
Katima's husband, Dill, was also sincerely grateful for it.
Although the new residence where the two live is well guarded, there is no place in Ishtarika that is more secure than the Imperial Castle.
If there was one, it would be like Bahamut, and there was nothing but a royal castle in terms of everyday life.
In addition, there are many people involved in medical care if they are in the castle. Above all, the presence of Barbara.
In view of these circumstances, Katima will be living in the castle from this evening...
I see. I didn't know that.
"Actually, it was decided when Ein left the capital."
"It makes sense.... but I'm glad Katima-san's kindness, but don't impose."
"Nghahaha! My nephew is as gentle as ever"
Katima deliberately teaed and replied.
― ― ― Ain visited Krone's room after her job was over.
She says that Ein's presence makes her body much easier.
This is not a matter of feelings. Barbara, the user of therapeutic magic, including Sylvia, who had examined her, consistently commented that Ain was in a better health than Krone.
I don't know why.
However, my body may have calmed down because of my courage...
"I'm sorry... you've been worrying me all this time, right?"
"Don't worry, I just want to see Krone."
"I-It's already... Ain't that right?"
Krone, who was awake on the bed, whispered a soft voice.
The girl has sweat on her forehead and does not rely on her strength to support her body.
When I look at it, I see that I'm not feeling well enough to hurt my heart.
(What's the matter... really...)
It's pathetic, but I want to rely on Sara at a time like this.
But I don't know where he is now.
Even if I called in my heart, I would not reply as I used to.
Ein?
"Ah, no, no... nothing!"
Ein looked at Krone's face and smiled as he noticed his pale face.
Because if you look at her worried face too much, it will hurt her heart.
(--- If no one knows, we have to go to the Divine Hidden Dungeon.)
As the next king, I can't give in to my busy days.
If Sella were here, I might be able to ask her for help.
"Fufu, it's warm."
When Ein grabbed Krone's hand, she loosened her cheeks to the warmth.
However, Krone has a higher temperature than Ain.
Suffering from a high fever that was always close to a severe cold, she was hot enough to burn.
However, holding Ain's hand calmed her down a bit.
Olivia once said that maybe it was because of the rooted relationship. It was the judgment that, unlike the dry add root, it would be irrelevant to the tree of the world of bulimia.
"Um, no."
"Yeah? What's wrong?"
I'll be working in this room tomorrow.
Always beside Krone and overlap her skin as much as possible.
By doing so, I want to relieve the spiciness of her body.
"Even if they say no, I'll say no."
"... but..."
But no. If I'm not around, I won't be able to do my job anymore.
Is this way of saying cheating?
But I don't care how you say it.
Krone's body was more important.
"But, but... even Chris isn't lonely..."
"I know, but this is what Chris suggested."
Even Chris can't help worrying about Krone.
I am upset about my inability to cooperate, and they are looking for information about whether there are any cases or treatments in between work.
If you do that, you might get better a little bit.
Then Krone nodded without strength.
In addition to Ein no matter what she says, she herself has never experienced the care and hardness of the past and always wanted to be with Ein if possible.
◇◇◇◇
Ein visited under Krone the next day.
Having breakfast with her, who still seemed to be in pain, Ein was happier beside Krone, who encouraged her to work.
Eventually, I finished my lunch.
The door of the room was knocked on. Ain, who stood up, opened the door, and Sylvia, Cain, and Martha stood outside the room.
Cain came to the king's city a few days ago, before Ein.
He was there with Archer to investigate the forest, but now that the investigation is over, he was waiting for him in the castle.
On behalf of these three, Martha opens her mouth.
Ain-sama, it's time for your checkup.
"So, Ain, for now, I'll wait outside with you."
"Yes, yes... I understand."
Ein nodded and went back to Krone once, telling him that Sylvia and the others had come.
Then, I hugged Krone and went outside the room.
Sylvia and Martha swapped places with Ain.
Can you stay still?
Cain asks, standing behind the wall in the hallway.
Um, what's that?
"Can you stay quiet until the examination is over?" If you can't, you have to move your body. Of course, I'll go out with you. "
"... no, that's fine."
Ein said with a sad voice, and went next to Cain and deposited his back on the wall.
Cain stretched out his hand to his head and stroked it a little roughly.
Well, trust me, wait.
"...... I believe you."
"It doesn't look like it to me. Now Ain is just trying to calm her mind, trying to assume that she believes."
Ein tried to disagree with the words uttered.
However, the word stops at the throat.
"Well, I had a rampage when Sylvia fell ill." I moved my body until I destroyed a few mountain ranges. "
Cain laughed unstoppably, making Ein grim.
He must have spurred Ain to become what he was now.
Ein understood this and muttered, "... you can't tell me about people, can you?" and scratched his cheek.
"But... there's nothing I can do about it." The medicine that my mother gave me has helped me, but it hasn't worked for a long time now. I only think it's obviously getting worse. "
In fact, it can be seen that Krone has spent more time trying to be spicy, and the spiciness has also increased. She's so patient, and when she's not feeling well, she tries to hide it from Ein, which is evidence that she's not hiding anything at all.
That's why Ein doesn't feel like it just because she's doing it.
Is it better to visit Sara even if it's impossible? I was desperately suppressing my legs, which were about to jump out.....
At that time, it was.
"Ah... excuse me!"
When Martha, who had just entered the room, left the room in a hurry, she stopped by to briefly apologize to Ein, and left in a hurry.
To do that, Ain's cheeks lose their vitality.
Could it have been worse than I expected?
I was lucky to know the condition, but I couldn't help worrying about Krone any more.
Ein speaks from the wall without thinking.
He approached Krone's room one, two, and then took a walk.
Then the door of the room opened again.
This time, Sylvia came out.
"It's finally clear." I thought so... but I've finally got a clear response. "
She said in a confident voice, and invited Cain's hand as well.
Haha, mother....
"Ein, stop calling me that."
"Oh, I'm sorry! Master Sylvia!" What about Krone!? "
Always lacking calmness, Ein grabs Sylvia's robe and is so stuck that she's about to get stuck in it.
And when Cain saw him, he slapped Ain on the shoulder, and urged Sylvia with his own mouth.
"Keep going."
"Yes. Until now, it was because of Mr. Krone's constitution that I wasn't sure." As Doriado, who is not a dry add, I have no precedent, and it has taken me a long time to investigate. I'm sure that's why I didn't know anyone who had ever seen Krone before. "
Sylvia's cheeks were brimming with joy after she finished speaking.
Ein-kun. As I said, Krone-san is not doing well due to a sudden deficiency in magic power.
"... how do you cure that?"
"There is no cure." I just have to wait for her body to calm down. "
Ein's face and head turned pure white in front of Sylvia, who spoke out.
At this time, a golden route incident sweeps through his mind. I remembered the people who suffered from artificial magic and imagined Krone's future.
Meanwhile, Cain seemed to have some idea.
In other words, your body as an interracial race---especially the power of magic stones?
"Yes. It seems that my body has changed in the first place." Perhaps this is the hardest time for Krone-san. "
But I don't know. If my predictions are correct, the therapist in the capital will know.
"I can't. Like I said, even Krone-san is a special species." Isn't it the nature of a family of trees in the world of bulimia? It was the same as Pixie, and it was hard to understand. "
The two of them talked face-to-face.
Eventually, Sylvia looks at Ein with a gentle, inclusive face.
"Ein-kun, listen carefully."
She looks straight at Ein.
"Go into your room and listen to Mr. Krone." This is not what I'm supposed to say, so ask her directly, okay? "
"... Mother"
"Come on, come on."
Ein then headed under the Krone, wrapping his heart around him.
Eventually, after the door was closed.
Cain looks out of the window and exhales deeply before saying.
"... let's stay here for a while"
"I see... I couldn't have been around before."
The next moment, they hugged each other and rejoiced.
Soon thereafter, a cheer came from Krone's room.
◇◇◇◇
That day, the joy spread throughout the castle.
Sylvard's family, including those visiting under Krone and Ein, and Graff's rush... all heard the good news.
I'm sure Ein will remember this day for years to come.
"... you know......"
He returned under Krone and glanced at her face, which opened her mouth.
And....
It looks like I had... a child in my stomach.
When I heard the words in a happy voice, I hugged her hard.
