Fruit Day

"Understood. I will talk to High Priest Katerina first."

　When I went to Ellen's room, Ellie and Conrad had just fallen asleep. I was able to talk about refugee relief from the Holy Kingdom with just the right tying, but Ellen immediately agreed.

"Her Majesty Queen Sylphiel, who is trying to reach out to the people of the Holy Kingdom who once robbed her of her hometown, is a benevolent ruler rarely seen in history."

"I don't think it's necessary to lift it by force, but... it's a decision based on calculations, isn't it?"

　I replied with a wry smile to Amalie's words.

　Things like external considerations, and the morale issues of the soldiers on the front lines in the event of a severe response. However, on top of having to deal with refugees, it's not good that the support for the refugees is too generous and the morale of the soldiers goes down, so it might be better to think about that. Na. Put a drink or something on it, or give out a bonus or something temporarily... Well, a bonus is safe. Some people can't drink alcohol. It's going to cost money again... Melty is likely to give me a sour look.

"Even so. I have a deep admiration for His Majesty Sylphiel's generosity."

　Saying that, Amelie put her hands together as if to thank God and made a prayer-like gesture. There were a lot of things between her and Sylphy about Conrad, but I'm relieved that she's finally able to build a good relationship.

"So, are you going on a business trip again?"

"No, it's not right away, and it's possible that we won't be able to go. Anyway, it seems like we're talking about making a firm plan on how to deal with it first."

"Is that so… Please don't let Elise and Conrad forget your face when you go on too many business trips."

"I'm going to cry if that happens..."

"I will comfort you then."

"Wow, can I comfort you too?"

　Amelie smiled at me when I was depressed, and Ellen followed in a hurry.

　When I was flirting like that, Berta, who looked a little unusual, entered the room without even knocking.

"a..."

　And when he sees my face, his cheeks turn red. I wonder what? When I was looking at her face while thinking that, she straightened her expression with her face blushing and walked to my eyes. Then, while I was still sitting on her chair, she grabbed my head and pressed it against her stomach.

"I got it"

"Hmm?"

　My face is pressed against Berta's slender belly and it's a bit painful. When I was swaying without understanding the meaning of what I was saying, Berta pushed my head against her stomach even harder. painful painful.

"I am also saying that I have finally received your child."

"Hmm!?"

　what! ? I said that, but since she was wearing a monk's robe and her face was pressed against her belly, I couldn't say it properly. Or rather, it's hard to breathe. It smells really good and it's warm, but it's hard to breathe!

　For the time being, he doesn't seem to have any intention of releasing her, so he wraps his arms around her waist and hugs her, patting her waist as if to care. With the thought that she gave up about half.

　She's a bit of a peculiar person among the nostalgia of the Adol Religion, so she's in a somewhat special position, like a combat worker, so her slender body hidden under her monk's robe has more physical strength than it looks.

"Berta. Kosuke will die in agony if he continues like this."

"... it's kind of embarrassing to see my face"

"Is it too late?"

　I wholeheartedly agree with Ellen's words. It may be hard to see Bertha blushing, but the fact that she has a child means that they are on good terms. It is quite late to say that she has no body or lid.

"By the way, I'm sorry for interrupting your conversation.

"That's fine, but... it's a bit unfair to monopolize. Please take over."

"I can't obey Eleonora-sama's words for now. Please forgive me."

　Berta's force pressing my head against her stomach has weakened, but she doesn't seem to be willing to release me yet. Hmm, it's warm and smells good, so I don't mind it, but somehow being held like this makes me feel really calm... I feel like I'm going to sleep.

"I'd like to ask you to follow Eleonora-sama."

"Umou"

"Hey, don't talk. It tickles me."

　unreasonable. Or rather, it has been decided that Ellen and Amalie will do the same regardless of my intentions. As expected, if this kind of thing happens in quick succession, I think I'll manage somehow with a sense of security and happiness.

　Well, it's not like I have any urgent business. If Elise and Conrad wake up, we won't have time to relax like this, so let's slow down a bit.
