Getting reborn: I will make a harem this time. Chapter 7 7: This cannot be happening

"He is fine."

Hmm? That's it?!

She was building up so much, and that's all?

But that wasn't actually everything. I only realized that after listening to her next line. And I also got a little idea of what happened in my battle with her.

"That battle two years ago... you lost all of your power in that battle. I was worried that demon's spell might even affect your child, but my worry was for nought."

Listening to the saintess, a faint smile blood on Eleanor's face. She then looked at lovingly, that was enough to lt my heart.

I wasn't feeling a completely new emotion, which was hard for to express.

I am still the demon that they are talking about, so why is my heart aching?

Why am I getting soft seeing her face looking at ? Why do I want i respond to her smile?

She was and is still my enemy... if she... if they found out who I am, then I am sure, they will not hesitate to even kill .

My purpose should be to get my revenge, and for that, I need that strength. I should get back to my peak again and much faster.

"Then I am glad that my sickness did not affect my child. I would have been really heartbroken if that had happened. I do not know how I could have forgiven myself if I had infected you as well."

Her words were soft and soothing to my ears. She was asking for forgiveness for sothing she hadn't done.

"That is not a sickness."

More than , her words hurt saintess more and she snapped.

"That's not a sickness, Eleanor. You sacrificed yourself for the lives of countless. If at that ti you weren't there to take on that spell by yourself then..."

Her face darkened, rembering that scene when Eleanor faced that spell all by herself. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

So this ans that my spell did work and the hero lost all of her power due to that. If that's the case, then doesn't that an that bastard is still alive?

Even after all that he still survived?

"You gave up your everything and for what? Your sacrifice has been limited only to the texts now. All of them have transcended now and you have been left behind. The glorious hero, the protector of humanity has been forgotten now. Do you have no regrets?"

She asked, her figure trembling with rage.

But Eleanor was calm and was gently patting my chest, she slowly turned to look at that saintess and responded with...

"No. Now, all that matters to is being with him. I have no regrets that I lost my power. I have no regrets for saving those millions of people, and I have no regret to live a comfortable life with him here."

"You are ready to give all up?" Her body shuddered even more. She wasn't able to understand why would she even do that.

"Fine then, why don't you co with ? We will go to the Elven realm; there I will talk to Mother and ask her to help you. I am sure with the help of the world tree, we can cure your problem. Even if you do not want to get involved with the war going on, you can still live as a warrior."

"No, Ayesha. This is enough for no..."

Eleanor was about to refuse her again, but she cut her in between and spoke again.

"Enough? No, I cannot see you like this at all. Having the child of another person... you really do not have any idea about my feelings for you?"

Tears welled up in her eyes when saying that.

Wait a minute, is there sothing going on between them?

What kind of developnt is this?

Am I even allowed to listen to all this?

"Ayesha..." Eleanor tried to calm her down but the saintess did not stop.

"I was going to express my feelings for you after we win against that demon, but I never expected things to turn out like this. You lost all your power and sohow ended up getting pregnant. Do you realise what I had to go through? And till now I don't even know who the father of this child is."

Hah?

This makes wonder too, who could have pulled the hero up. Even if I am her enemy, I know that she is extrely beautiful, not that I have any kind of feelings for her or anything, but yeah, she is beautiful even more than those so-called top-class models from my previous world.

"You..." Eleanor hesitated for a while but decided to confront her this ti. She has been aware of her feelings for her from a very long ti ago.

"Forgive , Ayesha. I wasn't able to say this to you all this ti but I have known about your feelings for . But what could I have done, I was in love with soone else. I didn't know how to tell you this all this ti, I just didn't know how you would react to that. You are my dearest friend and I had no intention to hurt you at all. I apologise to you, are you willing to forgive ?" Eleanor looked at her in her eyes from where beads of tears had begun to roll down and said apologetically.

"S-so you had known about it always? You could have at least told about him. Did you think I would be against your choice?" She asked.

Well, if you ask , looking at her, I am sure she would have objected. She seems to have really fallen for the hero. Not that it matters to , but who could be my father? And why co I got reincarnated and even that as the son of the woman who slayed ?

Maybe the hero also had the sa opinion as so she also stayed silent... I could be wrong though.

"So who was he? I have never seen you with any other man. Many have approached you, but you rejected all of them. The only one to visit you frequently is King Edward."

Then as if a realisation hit her, her eyes widened as she looked at Eleanor.

"Don't tell , he..."

No, no, no. No fucking way. Tell her she is wrong, hero. I can accept my death, I can even accept that I am your son now. I will gladly accept if you kill again, but not that.

I cannot be that bastard's son. Decline her, hero.

Mother?!! Tell her no.

"Gaaaa... gggaaaaa... ahhh... uwaaaaa..."

I cannot accept this. No way I will ever accept this. I have faith in you, hero. I know you will never do sothing like this.

But the little hope I had left was dimming now when I looked at her face It was dark, and her voice had gone silent.

Do not tell ...

"He is..."
