"Gender. Must be the daughter of a healthy man (...)"

"Manu, I think the pronunciation was a little strange right now."

"Smile. It's my fault."

In Manuferno's belly lies a new life. It's our kid, of course. He'll be born in a few months.

"Boy, good boy. But you can have a girl, right? Uh-huh."

"Danger. There's some sign of a dangerous dad"

"Hey, what are you talking about, Manu?"

If you're going to be born healthy, you don't care about gender.

Will you just split up like Rana and Lars and be twins for both men and women?

As was the case with Iola and Riola, who were young, being friendly brothers and sisters seems fun and worthy of nurturing.

"Worried. I do, though."

"What are you worried about?

Living room dining with dinner ready. Manuferno rests his helping hand and sits on a chair at the long table. Gently put your hands on your bloated stomach.

"Glasses. If you're two kids, you definitely need glasses."

"Oh... that could be it"

It comes from my short-sighted parents. Quite likely, he's going to be a kid who needs glasses.

Well, in case you need it, let's try to get the magic glasses ready. Loaded with cheesy magic, these magical glasses are like my soul.

Life, some kind of goal, is harder to work with. We must continue to work hard for the children who are born, for the families who live in the hall.

Eventually, a lively dinner began.

An atmosphere of calm indoors with indirect lighting by soft magic lamps. The oak tree table is lit with perfume oil lamps, illuminating everyone.

Today's dinner is a piece of southern-style chicken made by Riola. Deep-fried meat cut into bite sizes, sweet and sour enough to season. He's been working out a lot of dishes that Manuferno can eat.

"Larna, meat over there, what flavor?

"Same day as Lars' plate's"

"Let me have a taste"

"It's the same!

Lars stretches the fork onto Larna's plate even though it's the same. Larna stops it and grabs hold of it.

"Come on, you don't fight. It tastes the same."

"You see."

"Chieh."

Riola scolds Lars with Larna.

The side of Riola watching over her twin brothers and sisters also seems to be fun and nostalgic for the old days. Iola and Riola, they must be superimposed on their former selves.

"... so Pram and Chuta looked fine today"

Pram and Chuta come back to the hall from time to time. But now I'm traveling to the Great Forest of Kyodittil. He says he'll be back in a few days.

The two are now working in the royal palace in Metanostadt, the king's capital. Pram is accompanying the Alberina Investigation Team as an academic researcher, and Chuta is serving as a knight on Alberina's escort and border surveillance duties.

After the encounter with the mysterious wizard, he seems to be returning to Rudens to rest.

"Hempero was a disaster, too."

Riola hears about the incident at the Isravian Royal Palace and has a really complex look on her face.

"Ergonote's pageant, you shouldn't have let him go. I heard they showed you how to do this."

"He said he was stabbed in the end... What the hell have you been doing?"

"Resentment. There's a lot going on, Ergo."

"I guess so."

Riola has also been told by Ergonote in places I haven't seen, so I guess there's a verse that comes to mind.

"Ha..."

Both Manuferno and Riola are very excited about my story.

That's why the press (press) is giving us insignificant information about what they're going to tell us in the news tomorrow.

"Spike Saleta......? Oh, my God, are we talking about himitsu?

Milinko, who was listening beside Riola, dwells a dark light behind her eyes.

"Of course it's a big case. How dare you take control of the desert country Governor... the king has been stabbed! This is awesome, so don't tell anyone, okay?

"Himitsu, Wakarimashita"

A subhuman girl, Milinko, blinked her golden eyes like a tiny little animal.

Short-cut titty hair. Slurry stretched hands and feet from sleeveless maid clothes are thin, and skin colours are tanned and light black. The tip of the ear is slightly pointed and the hair grows like squirrel's ear.

Anyway, it reminds me of Spiano the Dog Ear Clan, but not the half beast man, but only the sub. It would be a species closer to elves and dwarves in one way or another.

"Milinko, is the meat delicious?

"Hi, Riola. Very delicious Shiidez!

Milinko took a small note out of his pocket, chewing on the meat as he mowed.

And while hiding it at hand, he wrote: 'The King of the Desert, Sassaletta, the meaty oily'.

Speaking of why I know what I wrote, it's nothing more than because I'm writing with bumps in my mouth.

Two years ago, Riola helped where she was going and falling in the City of the World Tree, and then Milinko, a subhuman girl living in the hall as a maid apprentice.

She writes down in her notes what she has heard and seen in this hall and sometimes sends them by post (...).

To be sent is the Southern Forest, a printed map of Marino Serese in the South. It's "Inside the Subman" there.

He said, "I'm the best spy in the house."

Apparently, he was sent in by the head of the subpeople to explore trends in the city of the world tree. Come and show me what you wrote in your letter, "Letters, Colledei?" As she asks, she smiles with quite a good amount of spies.

Honestly, I'm a bit of an asshole kid, so I'm worried about watching you.

Both Manuferno and Riola support Milinko's "espionage". In a way, maybe that's good.

"Yes, yes. Don't go alone when you start shopping in the city tomorrow"

I told everyone who had finished their meal that a suspicious person was infiltrating this city.

From its fruits and leaves, the world tree produces materials that serve as raw materials for various magical pharmaceuticals or magical tools.

Naturally, it can be taken for granted that various forces are involved in intelligence activities from neighbouring countries. But there are certain gentlemen's agreements that don't harm residents or us.

But now, the ongoing "mysterious remotely operated wizard" is unidentified in its identity and purpose.

Beyond rumours that you're sniffing around about me, I'd rather alert my family.

Most of the time, Manuferno rarely goes to the city because she is a pregnant woman. Take care of herbs and grasshoppers in the garden for a walk nearby.

Riola often goes shopping, but as a "maid of honor" in the hall, her fighting power comes with origami. I don't think it's that easy to take the back even if something happens.

Above all, no, the city of the world tree itself is like home ground.

The entire city is on its side and there are numerous collaborators.

There is also a swordsmanship dojo in Lu with many gatekeepers nearby, and Spiano works as the owner of the city's playground (...).

And...

The fairy Metius crawled out of the gap in the poetry collection he had placed beside the table.

"Sage Grecas. It's a regular call from the World Tree Guard."

"Is it sentinel time?

"Yeah, no abnormalities."

Expand Tactics in invisible mode.

- Drone Reconnaissance "Witch Needle Reconnaissance Type (Searcher)" Unit 18

- 20: 00, on sentry flight through the World Tree and Southwest

- Altitude 30 Merte, speed 40 km/h Merte

- Temperature 22 degrees, northeast wind 1 merte

- Detection of abnormal objects: None

Drones flying around the world trees, dragonfly-type magic devices - information from "Witch (Witch) Needle (Needu)" is sent in increments.

Search Magic Map Search (Ggor Gazon) displays bright spots indicating the location of moving trains and freight vehicles in water transport, mainly in world trees and cities.

Regardless, this' Hall of Wise Men 'is also on sentinel course. Time is random, but we're monitoring the perimeter from above.

Switching to another sentry unit, there was a ground-deployed golem moving across the world tree to the opposite point.

Traveling through the wetland area is the new combat golem, the Tarantia Type Seven Strider.

Aircraft for local warfare with lighter armor and improved for wetland areas. It has maneuverability to run even in muddy areas by fitting a float mechanism on multiple legs similar to spiders.

Perimeter security is complete. Don't miss suspicious people or intruders.

"You don't have any particular reports from every guild in the city. Oh, but there was a letter from the Magic Workshop (Marsenal) Union (Guild), Nalululu."

"Ho, long time no see. What?"

"Tomorrow, they're running a new 'golem jacket' in the square and will unveil it. Sage Grecas, if you don't mind, I'd like you to come and have a look."

"Hmm? I'm looking forward to it, but I don't know if it's a rush."

"Ugh, I'm sure you'll be fine"

Well, you better have a lot of fun.

Now, in this system of security, how do mysterious enemies come? What the hell are you gonna do?

"Well, let's have a look"
