That was about five years ago now.

At the time, Welt was still in Claire's tummy and everyone was waiting with their necks long for her impending birthday.

I'll stay soft-headed too.

When I realized, I was full of my head about my child to be born.

Is it a boy or a girl?

Me and Claire, which looks like it. Maybe he looks like Master Grey, Father, Mother, or Grandfather. Yeah, but. I'm sure whoever you looked like must be adorable and irresistible.

What shall I do with the name?

I have a hand in getting someone to be a named parent...... but this is my first child and I still want to think for myself. Besides, if you're going to ask people, they're going to start fighting over who's going to be the named parent. Even if it's hard, I figured Claire and I would think about it. This worry is a parental privilege.

When I have a child, what shall I do for you?

I want to play a lot for you, and when I can get out of the mansion, I want to take you to different places. Of course I want to show Majesta's royal castles and towns in the abyss forests and elves. Plus, a lot of people want me to meet them. I look forward to it now.

Nevertheless, we have to support him first so he can grow well.

What do you need to take care of your baby?

Shouldn't we have cloths for scratches and diapers early? No matter how much diapers or wipes you have, it will take a while to prepare a lot of fine cloths that won't damage your baby's skin. I'll have to ask Lutze. If the Hendra Chamber of Commerce has recently gone to the other side of the mountain range to purchase it, it must also know what unknown fabrics are not yet out in the human countries. If you have difficulty obtaining materials, you can ask [the ancient snake] to do so through Zion.

No, wait.

My lovely child uses it, so shouldn't I, the father, prepare it for you?

And, well, like that. I can float to the birth of my child, but I often try to travel a lot.

If you are in a workplace with the eyes of a colleague or subordinate, you still hang on to them in a hurry at home. That's how many times Seniors Leo and Richter stopped me, and if they still don't listen, it's a matter of driving me out to Maris.

At the end of the day, Ballad and the maids told me, 'We will prepare you in detail, so please consider your child's name on Mr. Doyle's side' and lock you in the room from the outside.

I'm sure she got up and bothered, but if Claire was foolish enough to think our family was terrible, she'd be like, 'Well. So, it was busy out there until just now,' he just laughed gently. The appearance of knitting baby's socks and gloves while striking the right gavel for my story overlapped with the look on the mother's face on the day she stroked my young head.

Claire, who has become a worthy lady in the name of the Duchess, is now about to become her mother.

To the scene that makes you think so and the calm air she creates, 'That was too shabby. I'm going to be a father too, so I need to be more calm' to everyone I reflected on.

Marriage and parenthood are the first experiences I've had in total since my last life, so I'd like you to take a big look at this lapse.

That way, every day I realized and reflected on the happiness I had been given and the expectations of the future that would be lively, the anxiety of "can I be a proper parent" who occasionally goes through my chest, was enveloped with love and happiness that was just brilliant and overflowing.

And in those heartwarming days.

Majesta also marks a major turning point.

A farewell day when a series of disturbances converged and greeted the kingdoms of the Beasts and among Fortraith and Handel and Elves, then involving the kingdoms of the dragons and many races.

See you later! My friend!

'Oh! I'll see you soon!

As I was walking home to Majesta with the Leo seniors, I responded loudly to Astra's words that came to see me off and promised to meet her again.

Since that day, this has been five years.

After a series of disturbances, the fringe with the oddly bound dragons continues uninterrupted.

Initially it wasn't me and Astra's personal. The heterogeneous exchange spread a little bit, connected with another edge, and now grew up so fat and big that the King of Majesta and the King of the Land of Dragons exchanged in writing as representatives of man and subpeople.

Of course, at the beginning of the exchange, there were many voices opposed to connecting with the other side of the mountain range where the Fae, and also the Warcraft and Submen, who caused so much damage to the nations of man, like the King of Worms and Arakune, lived.

However, when the Royal Handel family, with its subhuman and human beings originally coexisting in Fortrais and elves, talks about interacting with subhuman in public, and Magesta, adjacent to the Abyss Forest and likely to be damaged by warcraft and demon kings, affirms that 'dialogue is possible with the sub people on the other side of the mountain range', changes appear in people's perceptions and those who speak of potpouts and interest in the Fae.

Then a while later, Lord Sumva and [the ancient snake] published a book that used handouts and correctly portrayed the lives of the subhumans.

It became known to the public that the subhumans lived no different than humans, and they eventually heard opinions such as' Unlike monsters like demon kings who have no choice but to fight face to face, they may be able to discuss with beasts and subhumans who are on the other side of the mountain range '.

In the meantime, a temple knight with splendid brown wings is discouraged on the side of a cleric in the Great Temple, and a severe earthquake runs across countries.

The rumor ran around three years after that battle. According to information received from Scion, a birdman who said that Vulk, whom Leo and his predecessors had treated and helped on the journey to deliver to me, had moved from military to temple knight in Rapta, the country of birdmen to protect him, in gratitude to the clergy who had desperately tried to help him with his predecessors.

Originally, the Great Temple would not interfere with the nations, even though there were no demon king raids or wars. I mean, it's not like the Great Temple actually worked anything out this time either. The Great Temple only replied, even when asked by dignitaries in various countries about the merits of heterogeneous exchanges, 'remain at the mercy of God'.

But the fact that the Great Shrine accepted the Birdman as a Temple Knight seemed sufficient to shake people's values. There was no doubt that that action of the Temple had resulted in the creation of a flow of advancing heterogeneous exchanges.

Well, for a long time now, the temple has been healing regardless of the country, man or beast man by sending a cleric if there is a dispute somewhere about this, so maybe it's more like saying it now.

As long as I remember the high priests of Cereos and senior Arbor clerics and mothers, they all believe from the bottom of their hearts in the teachings: 'Every life that lives and lives in this world is of equal value', and they don't seem to have doubted it. Where heterogeneous exchanges have begun, I guess it's not so much to worry about.

This is my imagination, but the people who live in the Great Shrine seem to be listening to national attempts with the feeling that 'it will be busy and fun if it materializes' and 'vibrant and the gods will be pleased'. That's what my mother thought when she heard about the promise I made with Theon. I'm sure it won't be far without hitting it.

Since we will not be able to come back with any further deviations in content, it is important that the actions taken by the Great Temple unintentionally support our movements, as the story of the people who have left the world ends first.

The confidence in the Great Temple in the people is so great by then. It was also significant that older people and people who were unexpectedly but in key positions stopped opposing the high voices, even if they never took the initiative to engage in heterogeneous exchanges.

That only made the bridge with the other side of the mountain range a lot easier. Really. Specifically, if I wanted to send a letter publicly, I needed nearly fifteen procedures, which were reduced to five pieces of paperwork. It is new to my memory that it was so much easier to talk about my work with Astra and the Musketeers on the other side and I was thrilled to be with Master Grey.

And young people tend to get curious and prefer new things.

It was a moment of loose public opinion that was tough.

Then a further chase wind blows.

When this place makes money! Thanks to the very good work done by the Verco & Luze parents and children of the Hendra Chamber of Commerce and the former King Prata & Pinez parents and children of Handel, various products made of useful tools and unknown materials on the other side of the mountain range were meant to sweep the whole life.

Their sense of reading selected eyes and currents is a certainty, and many of the products that they were looking at warming up the period they were selling, such as magic props that purify them like fresh water gushing out in secret in any mermaid's water, sheets of hand over silk from Arakune, robes that boast terrible defenses on top of warmth if worn even in the mid winter of sheep's production, and beauty fluids made from only natural materials from elves, grabbed people's hearts with each passion.

By the way, they thought of establishing the biggest seats while there were fewer competing chambers of commerce, and both parents and children worked hard.

Let's just say that the first time that worked, Master Grey, who was given a document describing the amount of tax that was due to be paid by the Hendra Chamber of Commerce, called Lute, who was in the finance department, and asked him twice if it really fit with this amount, then he was making so much rough money that he didn't try to hide his dongled face.

For the record, we've also discussed the product so that we can live there, and Luce seemed like a completely distant person to me when she told me the facts of the shock with a radiant smile. 'Cause that would mean we exchanged a bond with the Plata Kings to monopolize and distribute the profits of our dealings with the other side of the mountain range at the Hendra Chamber of Commerce with the vendors under the Royal Handel whenever possible? Where the hell is that parent and child going? If you're already about one small country, you have assets that you can buy up. Yes, I'm afraid...

Well, I'm not committing fraud or any other criminal activity, I'm just making money doing business in a legitimate way, so it won't be something I talk about. Because thanks to them, the impression of the beasts and the numerous races that live on the other side has certainly improved. I'm afraid of knowing a lot, so I'm going to leave you in the future as far as Lutze and the Plata Kings are concerned.

And, well, that's it.

People's awareness of the other side of the mountain range has changed, and they can hear voices wanting to trade with the Fae coming from all over the country. Also, change is not limited to officials and nobles, and at last, there comes a time when there is a voice from the private sector who wants to meet with the Fae.

That was almost four years after the day I spoke with Theon about the future map and promised Astra I'd be reunited.

About a year of struggling with Scion, Astra and Gray.

Clearly, the visit of His Royal Highness Prince Wang of Majesta to the land of dragons became a reality.

It was no longer a month to take Master Gray, the head of the mission, and Jin, who, like me, took the head of the escort, and Leo seniors for his offering to leave Majesta to look around Fortrace and the Beastman countries. There have also been achievements made five years ago by me and my predecessors Leo, and the journey of the embraced missions in many countries has been a word of order, digesting the process of the journey planned without any further problems so far.

And right now, we are on our way to the land of dragons beyond the great mountain ranges that divide the continent.

- Zah, zah, zah, zah, zah.

Me and Jin consolidate their sides so as to protect Master Gray, and from the rear, Seniors Leo and Ljeci and Sana, who brought them from the Aginis family as offerings, and then the Kingsguard knights continue in an undisturbed stride.

Guided by a mission led by His Royal Highness Prince Wang, who left Majesta to deepen his interaction with the land of dragons, is the face of an [ancient serpent] mercenary regiment headed by Zion.

After finishing the postprocessing of the battle between the land of dragons and the coalition of humans and beasts, they moved parts of their strongholds in the nations of humans to the other side of the mountain range inhabited by sub-humans such as dragons and dwarves.

The aim is a bridge of species living on both sides across the mountain range.

This battle was also a major factor in the fact that the dragons and the beasts and the elves and the humans, each not knowing and not trying to know each other. Therefore, in the future, they intend to remove inter-ethnic barriers, encourage exchanges and allow the exchange of information between countries so that similar things do not happen.

The [ancient serpent] mercenary regiment, led by Lord Muske and Lord Scola, who have lived in the land of the subpeoples, not only has people like Theon and Lord Pail, but also dragon and beast men like Lord Tabor, who are accustomed to the Fae spending time together. On top of that, Lord Muske and Lord Skola have lived on both sides of the mountain range, so they have a general understanding of the state of both sides, and because only the mercenary regiment has strong armpit faces, they can handle it without any problems walking through the subhuman country.

That's right.

[Ancient Snakes] The mercenary regiment was a great group to serve as a bridge between races.

They are now gradually expanding their range of activities, and the faces of the mercenary regiment are also familiar with the lives of the subpeoples. Some of them say they fell in love with a certain species and had a belt on this side, not to mention their adaptability and flexibility.

As a result, we were asked to accompany us on this visit to the land of dragons and to visit the countries of the suburbs in the vicinity.

Looking at the back of Zion, who increased his success by coming and going between the mountains, I recall a conversation at a feast that took place around the time when the post-war process was almost cleaned up and the death and illness that struck the land of the dragon were also converged.

Overall, there is a grin on the faces of all those who enjoy a feast in their thoughts with birds and sheep-like beastly kings and humans who pour liquor into the mouths of the great dragons, and spirits and elves beside them who show off their various magically-driven arts, compared to those who drink the sights of glory into their dishes.

In the meantime, Zion, staring at that landscape as if it were a symbol of peace, told me with a strong and brilliant eye for ice blue.

'I don't know how long it's going to take, but I wish this feast would be a world to be seen around the world for granted'

Quietly, but with enthusiasm, I also say defeat to the proclamation.

'Right. I work for Majesta to be like this. "

"Then it's a competition which is faster."

"Oh. Well, you can't lose."

That's how I responded to Zion, who laughed nigga, with a belligerent grin too...

- This trip will be a major step towards fulfilling the promises we made that day.

Or if you don't, I and Master Gray will be in trouble.

Anyway, this is the first time that a human royal family has officially visited countries across the mountains. If there were an accident here that would pose a danger to Master Gray, or something like going home with your bare hands without any success, the other nations of man would step on their two feet.

Travel expenses such as handicrafts, transportation costs, and salaries for escorts need to be substantial, and time needs to be secured on a monthly basis. It's too expensive to execute on the basis of interest, and the impact on the surroundings is too great.

There are still many problems, even though the number of humans and subhumans crossing the mountains has increased slightly, in the [ancient serpents] and in the land of the dragons involved in that battle, in the great temples and handels of the beasts, in the elves, in Fortrais and Agricult, for their face-to-face efforts and powerful merit. Far from exchanging confidential information between countries in order not to wage war, so far it is to the extent that the likes and curious species go about it with a sense of travel.

Apart from King Prata and the Hendra Chamber of Commerce, thanks to the people of the merchant Handel, those who trade personally are coming out with potpouts, but exchanges on a national basis, such as forming alliances, have not yet materialized.

Well, it's hard not to be in a position where you can have enough escorts, like Master Gray, because you need the [old snake] mercenary regiment class arm for humans to come to this side, and there are many parts of the land that are far above unknown to go in a yet nobler capacity, too dangerous. If it is not also a guarantee that a great profit will be obtained, then the nations of man will not be able to raise their hips.

The subpeoples on the one hand have something racial supremacy, and many do not show interest in other species. It also seems that some races had a history of being enslaved from other races, and some of them had to be cautious about interacting with the outside, which was something they couldn't help but say they had no choice.

To sum up the current situation briefly, it is perfect that every country is looking at how things are going.

- It's natural psychology to fear the unknown.

Even I started sleeping in the same place as dragon men and elves and beasts for the end of the war, and when I didn't know one thing about their manners, I said, 'What are you doing?' I tilted my neck many times, and because I didn't know what was good and what was wrong with me, I was horned nervously at the rabbit, and I remember looking at the complexion of my surroundings every time I ate and bathed.

So someone has to make sure and show them it's okay.

- We're here for that.

If it is the [ancient snake] mercenary regiment that coordinates and monitors both sides of the mountain range so that there are no problems that interfere with the exchange, it is we, the Magesta and the Dragon Nation, who are supposed to be responsible for showing what happens to the countries we are seeing.

Therefore, this visit to the Dragon Country must be successful.

If this exchange is successful, the countries that are seeing things will also move gradually, with a variety of information and supplies coming and going, and life will be richer.

- You have to work hard for Claire and my baby to be born.

With that in mind, Theon's voice echoes around.

"- I see you, Your Highness. That mountain is the land of dragons."

If you look in the direction that Zion, who only looked back at his head, points to, a large mountain that breaks through the clouds and stretches to heaven.

If you remember a little nostalgia and narrow your eyes to the landscape you haven't seen in five years, your exclamation fell zero out of Master Gray's or Jin's mouth.
