Mr. Marie brought me here in a section of the Imperial Capital that was heavily guarded.

You will not be able to enter the place without passing the examination, and you will not be able to enter unless you show that you are noble in order to pass the examination.

Unfortunately, we are not aristocrats.

But when Marie showed me the same thing she showed me at the Imperial Gate, she let me through.

aristocratic district.

A section where noble mansions living in the imperial capital or separate mansions owned within the imperial capital by nobles usually living in remote territories were collected.

It is usually a quiet place because it is a compartment that only nobles use, but after a few days nobles came one after the other for a party they are refraining from. Thanks to this, the guards are also busy moving around.

Proceed like your own garden and stop in front of an old mansion.

It makes a bigger impression than any other mansion around because of the size of the mansion as well as the garden, although somewhere old.

"Here?

"Yes, our mother-in-law lives there."

Mr. Nelia, Rio's mother.

As a sideroom, she also welcomed me like her own daughter, admiring her like a real mother.

Although she was the mother of the next emperor, she was currently living in this mansion.

Marie's errand was to thank Nelia for providing us with the sake (nectar) necessary to treat the poison that was afflicting her.

The detoxification has been done, but the situation that is threatening my life in the position of the mother of the next emperor has not changed, and I was supposed to be invited to the mansion because I don't have enough fighting ability to defend myself in the event of a raid, so whatever happens, I want you to come out from us.

The visit was not a problem because I could not enter without being invited to the aristocratic district or something like that.

A black-haired servant comes out when he knocks on the gate and tells him of his visit.

"This is, Marie."

"Is Lady Nelia here?

"Yes, I'm in the back room"

"Yes."

I answer the servant without hesitation.

It's not like our attitude toward face acquaintances and Rio.

The other person is a servant, so I guess this is fine.

"I brought a customer. Let Lady Nelia know."

"Um..."

"Something?

"Master Cattleya needs it from the castle, too"

"That guy..."

I was holding my forehead by hand when I heard that there was also Mr. Cattleya in the mansion.

"First, show them to the guest room."

"Yes."

Continue into the back of the mansion as the servant guides you.

Guided is the reception room just outside the entrance hall.

Brown-haired servants leave tea and cookie-like treats in front of us so we can replace them with black-haired servants. Whether or not premium tea leaves are used, it smells more aromatic than the tea I have had so far.

After waiting about ten minutes, Katrea, the next queen, came in while being taken by a different servant from the servant who greeted me in a long blonde front door dressed in black maid clothes. There was also Marie in the back, so that she could follow her in case she fell behind.

Mr. Cattleya slowly sits on the couch across the street, and Mr. Marie also sits next to him.

A servant woman stood behind the couch waiting to be followed at any time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's been a while"

"Are you okay?

Sylvia asks anxiously.

My stomach wasn't noticeable when I met her before, but now I'm big enough to see that there's a new life there at a glance. In this condition, I didn't realize I was pregnant before.

I couldn't help but worry about my health as the same woman.

"I'm fine because I'm better today. Besides, you're all too worried. You should exercise a little bit. That's why I'm pretending..."

No, sir.

bareback.

I guess he was going to wave his double sword like he was using it on the 45th floor of the labyrinth basement in Teito.

Exactly. Even if I was able to wiggle critical at the time, I'm not currently in such a state that I can move that hard.

"Too bad."

Mr. Cattleya seems sincerely sorry.

It seems more stressful not to move your body when you see it like that, but you have to be patient when you think about your child.

"Oh, um...!

"What is it?

"May I touch it?

"Go ahead."

Without hesitation, Mr. Cattleya admitted that Sylvia would ask.

I was gently stroking my stomach when I reached next to Mr. Cattleya.

"You have children here, don't you?"

"Right."

With that said, my eyes were merciful and loose.

"Oh, me too, okay?

"Fine."

Ira, inspired by Sylvia and Mr. Cattleya's appearance, was also rushing over.

"Thank you. You care for someone like me."

"What are you talking about"

"I am the youngest of six noble sisters. I would have had a life waiting for me to be made into a marriage I didn't want and treated like a tool, but this is how I was able to give my loved ones children. I'm really sorry I fought then."

At that time - it was Silvia who fought directly with Mr. Cattleya, who came out to the battlefield on the 45th basement floor.

She was turning her serious intent to kill Sylvia. But Sylvia, who was supposed to be targeted for murder, had guided Mr. Cattleya through to the end. That's because I thought of a woman who was pregnant as the same woman.

"At that time, there were circumstances, so I couldn't help it. Never mind."

Sylvia says sincerely.

Seems like he doesn't really care that he's really trying to fight.

I'm here today to thank you.

"As long as I walk a little, I think I'll be fine, but is the queen okay with not being in the castle?

From the words of the servant who welcomed me on the doorstep, Mr. Cattleya should normally live in a castle in the Empire City.

The distance isn't that far compared to when you were working as an adventurer, but given your pregnant condition, there can be no walking distance, and you're definitely opposed to using a carriage because it should be a considerable burden.

"The Imperial Castle is a lot of noise right now. If you think about your body, this one will calm you down better than the castle."

"It's a quiet place indeed."

At present, people are coming to the aristocratic district one after the other, so the main street is built with a large garden of noisy things, so there is nothing like hearing the hustle and bustle.

"You know that's not all, Labyrinth Master and his family, right?

"Well, yeah"

Even if you look at the mansion with chills, you can feel a number of connections that boast a powerful defense against physics and magic. It's not just powerful, it's well covered up, and even if the wizard sees it, it's not easy to see through.

We were able to see through because the cover-up was using the power of the labyrinth to sense the power of the labyrinth.

I can say this is safer than a bad fortress.

"This mansion is reserved for Nelia, whom Rio suffers from poison. In a way, it's the safest place in the capital."

And if that's all that's tied up, I can say 'base'.

If it's a hub, we can move around freely on the move.

"Dear Nelia's poison has been treated thanks to the divine liquor you provided. Thank you so much."

"Let me thank you again, too,"

Mr. Cattleya and Mr. Marie bow their heads.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm not going to remember being thankful that much because I'm just going to offer the Kamikaze that was in the morgue.

But for them, a great benefactor saved my dear mother.

It would be more rude not to accept that thank you.

"Thank you so much"

A servant standing behind Mr. Cattleya is bowing his head.

"I'm late for my application. My name is Nelia and I have saved your lives."

The person in maid clothes who thought he was a servant was Mr. Nelia.
