#39. Son~ Mom believes in her son (2)

“Oh, son~ Can I talk to you for a minute?”

After lunch, the soldiers of the family asked for advice on swordsmanship, and while I was watching their swordsmanship for a while, my mother came to see me in person.

“Yes, of course.”

Since I had a guess about what was going on, I readily agreed, and my mother took me to her room.

Inside, there was a large quantity of delicious snacks and tea prepared, perhaps thanks to the help of the maids.

“Yes, I prepared a lot because I don’t know what you like. Some are homemade, and some are bought at a famous bakery.”

I was touched by the sight of my mother explaining the snacks to me, glancing at me from time to time.

I’m not really a big fan of sweets, but when I had tea with my son for the first time in a long while, I felt my mother’s painstaking efforts to decide what kind of tea I would like, so I started putting tea in my mouth without hesitation.

“Everything is delicious. Thank you for preparing it.”

“That. Is that so?”

When I praised the tea table I had prepared with a smile, my mother smiled brightly and rejoiced.

So our hats talked to each other for a few minutes about how we lived.

When I told you the story of how I was captured from the Demon Lab and how I spent half my life on the battlefield, you shed tears and it was hard to comfort you.

While we were continuing our conversation in such a friendly atmosphere.

“But Cain… …Uh, yesterday.”

Then my mother finally started to tell me why she had called me.

‘Was the faint spirit I felt yesterday really my mother?’

As I expanded my senses on the gaze I felt during sex with Lily yesterday, I noticed that a small spirit was watching our reproductive behavior.

Since my family was not a family specializing in magic or spirits, and none of the servants I met while touring the mansion were capable of such techniques, I quickly realized that my mother was the culprit.

It wasn’t too difficult to recall the connection, as I remember my mother studying spirit studies at the academy and summoning spirits to play with me when I was young.

“Are you talking about having sex with Lily?”

“That… …Yeah… … .”

When I brought up the word sex without hesitation and came out strongly, my mother blushed and answered with a crawling voice.

Maybe you feel embarrassed when you think back on our passionate sex yesterday.

‘What should I do… … .’

I was troubled.

Should I explain everything to my mother honestly?

Or maybe I should deceive my mother with lies.

Even if I tell the truth, my mother might not be convinced, and if this reaches my father’s ears, it could be a nuisance in many ways.

If you say, “Because of a curse, I stole your son and ate him,” who would nod and admit it?

furthermore.

‘… …Who would think that person is in their late 30s?’

My mother, who gave birth to Ronan and me, was in her late 30s and had a beautiful appearance that belied her age.

No wonder the party members who first met her asked if she had an older sister.

Where did the legend of her mother, who received confessions from the spirits 10 times a day at the academy in the past, go? Her beauty, which was further enhanced by her sickly beauty, was revealed.

If you bring up the lie about wanting maternal love and the guilt you felt about me, then having sex won’t be that hard.

Even though we are related by blood, my possessed mind views her as more of an acquaintance than a family member, so I don’t feel much mental distance from her.

After thinking about what to do for a while, I opened my mouth.

* * *

“It was for Ronan.”

“ㅁ, what?”

“To be exact, it was Ronan who suggested it first.”

I decided to explain the truth.

Although I was sexually attracted to her, it felt strange to hold her in my arms because she was my biological mother, and I felt a strange sense of reluctance to make her feel guilty about satisfying my desires after she had suffered so much because of me.

“Ronan is now under a curse.”

Eventually, when I explained Ronan’s current situation and the details of the contract I had made with his party members, my mother’s face turned pale and she trembled.

Surely, what parent wouldn’t be worried if their child was cursed with such a curse and had to entrust their sibling to act as a surrogate father?

“By the way, Your Majesty is aware of this situation. Ronan is a warrior, and it is impossible to let a warrior’s talent disappear.”

It may be a complicated feeling for parents, but this is the reality.

Although the Demon King has been defeated, this world is clearly a fantasy world.

No one knows what crazy warlocks might create another Demon Lord, or what enemies with extra-dimensional powers might swarm from another dimension.

Even if the possibility is very small, if it is not zero, we are given the duty to continue the blood of the warrior in order to prepare for future enemies who could threaten the well-being of the empire and, by extension, the well-being of humanity.

“Ronan is in a situation where he can’t have children due to a curse. So instead, I decided to use my blood, which is as strong as Ronan’s. I haven’t really crossed swords with him, but I’m just as strong as him.”

Honestly, I’m stronger than Ronan.

In terms of games, Ronan is a cheat character with all stats set to 999 at level 99.

Because I’m a bug character with no growth limit.

Although I may have been weaker in the beginning, as time has passed, I have far surpassed Ronan in terms of growth.

And it’s still getting stronger.

If a child has that kind of blood in him, wouldn’t he become a monster that can easily defeat two or three warriors?

“It’s because of me… … .”

“Yes?”

“I… …I abandoned you and neglected you, so God must have punished you as a worthless mother. I must watch my sons’ relationship deteriorate because of my choice. ”

this.

It seems that the emotion the mother felt was not anger or bewilderment, but rather guilt toward herself.

My mother blames herself for punishing Ronan and me because of her foolish past.

‘hmm…….’

My mother says that Ronan and I’s relationship is ruined and that it’s her fault, but in fact, Ronan is enjoying it too.

If Ronan’s mother knew that he was NTS (Naturally Transmitted Sexually Stimulated), she would have a very strange view of him.

“That… …you don’t have to worry too much about that part.”

“… … ?”

“To begin with, all of this was decided after deep conversations between the two of them. Ronan may be kind, but he’s not stupid. He made the decision after much thought for the sake of his descendants.”

“But… … .”

“Although it’s a bit of an immoral relationship, the bond between Ronan and the party members is strong, and even if they’re not related by blood, I said I’d make sure their children grow up happily, so you don’t have to worry too much. Well, I’m also responsible for the mess, so I’ll take care of them too.”

My mother gave me a complicated look at my words, then gave up with a long sigh.

“Yeah… … What right does a mother who has done nothing for you have to interfere with you? Just… … As long as you live happily, that’s enough for me.”

Although it seemed like she still had a lot to say, my mother understood it in her head and meekly stepped aside, saying that she had no more room to interfere.

“Thank you for understanding. I know you have complicated feelings, but try to think about it a little differently.”

“?”

“No matter what happens, mothers can see their cute grandchildren.”

“… … !”

Grandson.

When she heard those words, my mother froze in shock, as if she had been struck by lightning.

I don’t have the ability to read people’s minds, but I’m sure that right now, my mother is happily imagining herself playing with her children and giving them pocket money.

“Cain… ….”

“Yes.”

“Can I give you the first name?”

“… … Of course.”

“Haaa… … If it’s a son, it’s Nelson, if it’s a daughter, it’s Nephthys… … Ahh… … !”

I smiled bitterly as I watched my mother think about names for her grandchildren who had not even been born yet.

Looking at that, I don’t think I need to worry about my mother leaking this secret to anyone else.

‘Oh, that problem still remains.’

As soon as I solved one problem, another one suddenly appeared before my eyes.

Elysia.

Next week there will be a banquet to celebrate her birthday, and I will be appointed as the Emperor’s consort there… … .

Even if I were the husband, in the current situation where Elicia has completely seized power, there would be nothing for me to do. At best, all I could do would be to act as a pillar of the palace and sign documents that Sebas organizes and submits.

‘Oh my, this is so cool!’

Now that I think about it, it’s pretty cool, isn’t it?

Everyone dreams of being a rich, unemployed person.

As a duke, I have a lot of money, the most powerful person is my wife, and I have competent subordinates who do all my work.

And there.

‘Can’t we persuade Elysia to give us 5p?’

The more the better.

A golden opportunity has arrived to put into practice the 1:4 5p that has been passed down only in legends.
