Magic Gems Gourmet

Krone's physical condition began to calm down in May.

I was tired when I moved a lot, but besides walking in my room without assistance, I was calm enough to go out on the terrace and take a breeze.

After having breakfast with the krone, Ain was in the great hall of the castle.

An unusually large, vertical table was placed there, and Ain was sitting on the chair that had been prepared for her.

"Ein-sama, Ein-sama! Thirteenth... hey? It was fifteen... kohn! Magna sent you a gift by boat!”

Chris was the one who said that.

She came to the Great Hall with a dozen Kingsguards and ordered them to put all the crates they had on the floor.

There is no lid on the wooden box and it is loaded with overflowing letters.

Looking at the crate on the floor, Ein twisted her cheeks.

"... oh, what an amazing amount"

"Ah, as before, the gift itself is carried behind the back!" I'll just put together a letter based on the example here. "

"Nh, Rikaa. --By the way, this is Flight 17. As you can see behind me."

"Ah... hahah... I'll help you in a bit!"

Chris said that and left the room in a hurry to do the job he had been entrusted with.

Ain, who remained in the Great Hall, smiled at the clerks heading to the same long table and returned to work.

My current job is to check the gifts that have arrived at the castle in return.

Usually, Ein does not bother to do it, and that is why the fine civil servants in the castle thoroughly handled it, but this time Ein had to be involved as well.

And the gift of this celebration was given for the birth of a son between Krone and Ain.

It has already delivered an unbelievable number of festivities to the king's city. As well as inspecting everything, I could not avoid checking the attached letter.

The reason why Ein is desperate this time is like a custom.

The royalty involved in the work has long been regarded as one of the most important jobs.

Nowadays, it is forbidden and forbidden. Even when Lyle, who does not speak his name, was carried by Lalarua, many letters were received from that continent as a celebration item.

Of course, the goods and letters arrived from home, but this time they were completely different from Sylvard's.

Ein-sama.

And Warren says from the nearby seat.

"At the time of His Majesty, our Ishtarika was not as compassionate as the other continent." That's why it was so much easier than it was at the time..... "

How different is Warren's sensation?

"--Oh, oh, oh, this time, it might be a few dozen times more than before."

In addition to gifts as a national gift, aristocrats, bourgeoisie and merchants from other countries have also presented gifts for celebration.

It is also proof that the two continents have become more busy and boast more prosperity than before. It was a pleasure for Ein, but I didn't know that a few dozen times more would keep a twisted cheek.

But it's about time you got some help.

A helper?

"Yes. She wanted to visit Lord Krone too, so she wanted to speak to Lord Tigur."...... I was just telling you about the rumors. "

"--My Lord, Elena Augusto is here from the Autonomous Territory of Heim."

Ein couldn't help but loosen his cheeks at the words of the civil servant who came to Warren's side and called out to him.

Ah... it's Elena...! And he remembered his sincere reliance on the visit of a helper he hadn't anticipated.

His joy was exacerbated by Elena's visit to the Great Hall.

Elena, who had come to Ishtarika for the first time in a long time, came to the side of Ain, who was working at a long table.

"Your Highness, it's been a long time... I see that you've received more gifts than I imagined..."

Ain exchanged many words with her.

In addition to sharing the joy, he remembered the day when Ain and Krone first met, and touched upon the memories that came to this day.

This time, Elena went to Ishtarica, which is also the reason why she went to the castle.

I got pregnant with my daughter Krone and decided to stay in Ishtarica for a while.

"Where is Master Olivia?" I'd like to say hello. "

"If it's your mother, you'll be next to Krone." Krone seems to be worried about how busy we are, so she's been talking to me so I don't have to. "

Actually, it was Ein who asked for it.

Olivia was also trying to help work in the Great Hall for her beloved Ein while she was in the position of the second princess, and Ein made a rhetorical statement to that effect.

Instead, I asked her to stay by Krone's side.

"My daughter, I don't think I'll be able to do this all the time... no, but it's safer if Olivia-sama is around."

Yeah, so if you don't mind, go to Krone first.

When Ein called Martha, she showed up as quickly as usual.

Shortly after arriving at the castle, Elena is taken by Martha to a hierarchy where she can only travel to royalty or knights to protect her surroundings.

Then, a dozen minutes later, Chris returned to the Great Hall.

"Zhu... the 18th flight has arrived"

I told Ein with a sad voice.

◇◇◇◇

In the middle of the night, the sound of knocking on the door of this room came to Ein's ear, who was working on a few tasks that should have been the last closure in his room.

Here you go.

When Ein answered immediately, he was the one who didn't expect it.

Krone, who was already supposed to be asleep, opened the door with a layer of feather fabric on top of Negrije, looking slightly illuminated.

Can I come in?

Naturally, Ein answers, "Of course."

Ein forgot his old job, got up from his chair and left his desk. I walked up to Krone and took her hand and gently led her to the sofa.

Sit next to each other and ask her.

"I thought I was already asleep."

Then Krone tells Ain that she couldn't sleep.

"It's not like I'm sick, so if I slow down all the time, I won't be sleepy..."

"But Sylvia said you should still rest." Even if you're not sleepy, shouldn't you be lying in bed? "

"... I know, but can't you come?"

"I'm not worried about it, but I want you to rest..."

Krone looked up at Ain, who was sitting next to her, and her cheeks blushed slightly.

Soon after, she thought she had fallen on his breastplate, and held him tightly with her arms around his back.

It's sudden, but Ein hugs me back in the same way.

"--Oh, I see."

Suddenly, Ein noticed.

You don't have to tell me.

However, Krone stopped him from saying the next word without putting it in his hair.

That said, this is a good time for both of us.

Even if Krone is embarrassed, it would be nice if she could honestly sweeten it---thinking so, Ein gently stroked her back of her head,

Krone, did you miss me?

The essence is stated.

I nodded without saying anything, apparently not willing to deny it.

Recently, Krone was not feeling well.

Therefore, compared to winter, the two of them had fewer opportunities to face each other, and there was even a disturbance in the iron country until the other day. Ein was also extremely busy after the festive gifts arrived.

By and large, there was less time for the two of us to relax.

Krone's physical condition had calmed down and she could afford to be honest.

"I have a child, but I don't want to be spoiled by a child?"

"It's amazing. On the contrary, there will be days when I will be, and I just want Krone not to be disillusioned..."

"... Idiot. Don't say the impossible."

I rubbed my face against the breastplate of my contemplator. When I hugged him hard together, I could feel happiness all over my body. Stroking your head, and the warmth that comes from the hands that were always attached to your back, will always fill your heart.

Then, strangely enough, my eyes came to me as Tron.

Krone was surprised by the drowsiness she had unexpectedly visited, even though she hadn't been asleep before.

"If you don't sleep with me, I'll stay awake forever."

It's an unusual and provocative way to put it, but is it still shining?

"... yes..."

"Somehow, even though I used to shine better, when I was an adult, Krone was easier to shine at."... of course, I'm not talking about it, but I was wondering why. "

"That's because I like Ein better, right?"

”Haha... it's like my feelings are losing to Krone”

Krone raised his face when he heard the words.

You'll always fall in love. Ein is just like that.

That's why I don't think my favorite feelings are losing.

"What if we leave the winning and losing?"... will you sleep with me? "

There was no more work to think about in Ein's mind.

I put my hands around Krone's feet and held her up. Ein took her to her bedroom and put her to bed.

The krone stuck in the duvet will only appear above your mouth in your face.

"... thanks"

No, no, no.

Lying in the same bed, Krone immediately leaned on Ein.

Even though it's unusual --- it's quite honest these days compared to the past, but I still feel like I want to sweeten it today. I held Ein's arm in my pillow and narrowed my eyes happily.

Even though Krone said words like "Today... with your mother...", it seemed like she was at her sleepiness limit and could scratch her voice off.

He also closed his eyes one day and began to sleep regularly.

(I think we should just check the documents.)

As she remembered it now, Ain was uneasy that one arm was hugged by Krone.

If she tries to leave, she will wake up soon. Many things overlapped, but I don't feel like waking up the Krone that I wanted to spoil.

Ein claps her hands on the light of the magic tool and turns it off.

Then, Krone's sleeping voice came from next to her.

"Iron...... Good night...... come on......"

Just listening to Krone's cheerful voice made Ein happy. I had a child, and I feel that I will continue to do my best.

"Good night, Krone."

Gently kissing Krone's forehead, Ain fell asleep this day.
