My Childhood Friends Are Trying To Kill Me Side Story - 1

Side Story - 1

Oscars expression was serious. He was thinking deeply about how to get himself to speak to Lelia.

Lelia was in her early pregnancy.

During this ti, he should be very careful of her body and mind, as advised by the doctor.

It reminded him of what the doctor had told him several tis with a serious expression on his face She should never be surprised or shocked.

Therefore he procrastinated. Because he feared that Lelia would be surprised, and he would lose her.

He actually thought he was mistaken at first. But

So, he couldnt get his words out of his mouth and pondered for a while. He had no choice left but to ask Griffith.

It feels like two.

Griffiths answer was as expected.

Oscar wiped his face with his palm.

What should I say?

Lelia, there are two babies in your womb

She would be shocked, for sure. For better or for worse.

Oscar decided he had to tell her before it was too late and headed to Lelias room.

***

anwhile, Lelia, who was reading a book in her room, was staring blankly at her front.

In front of her was a small screen that her eyes could only see.

[Alchemy Lottery Season 2!]

On the screen, cute characters and alchemy tools flashed and moved.

After all the files were downloaded, the ga started automatically. Lelia completed her tutorial to get used to it.

[(**) New recipes have been added to suit your environnt, so please check it out!()]

[Do you want to use Alchemys help mode?]

When she clicked the Yes button, a familiar shape of speech bubble appeared.

[Nice to see you again!*(*)* Would you like to restore your inventory from season 1?]

Is this possible?

She, sotis, would shed tears thinking about the inventory she had filled to the brim.

Lelia imdiately pressed the Yes button.

Her heart was beating at an insane rate. She instinctively placed her hand on her stomach.

What if I am so startled that my baby is shocked?

She wanted to rejoice and shout loudly right away. She wanted to run through the entire castle, jumping and screaming.

But if she did, several people would feel scared and offended by it, as they were the ones who took care of her, who overprotected her.

Lelia bit her lip and checked every corner of the ga screen.

She was happy to see her old friend again, whom she thought she would never see again.

She was as happy and full of joy as she was when she t her friends again long ago after parting from the temple.

I missed you so much, Alchemy.

[ too, my master!()]

*(Charge it when youre happy.)*

Its still the sa.

Lelia looked at the list of added recipes with a slightly bitter smile.

Sothing stood out among all of the collected recipes.

[Rainbow diagnostic kit to confirm the gender of a baby]

I heard that the recipe was added according to the environnt, is it for ?

First, she checked the necessary ingredients. Fortunately, she had the materials in the inventory that was needed.

When she pressed on the Craft button, a new item was created and stored in her inventory.

When she took out the item from the inventory and placed it carefully on the table, she saw a small rainbow shaped box.

Lelia carefully opened the lid.

There was a small heart-shaped sticker inside, along with a manual which had the instructions written on it.

The use of this item seed simple.

It was ntioned to put the sticker on her belly button, and wait for five minutes.

Recently, Lelias greatest interest and curiosity has been about babies. Babies and babies only.

Among the many questions she had, she was most curious about the gender of the baby.

Oscar said it didnt matter if it was a girl or a boy, but Lelia thought differently.

Lelia wanted to have a lovely girl who resembled Oscar.

It didnt an she didnt like boys.

Five minutes later, Lelia took the sticker off her and checked. But she found it strange.

In the manual, it was written that if it was a girl, the heart would turn blue, and if its a boy, it would turn yellow.

However, Lelias sticker was divided exactly in two halves; yellow and blue together.

Is this a bug?

As if arguing, she asked Alchemy.

[Forbes most bug-free ga, Alchemy Lottery Season 2 (_)!!]

No. Dont say weird things. This ca out in halves.

Its been a long ti since they t, and she didnt want to make a noise.

Lelia started explaining out of joy of having a new conversation partner. She quietly spoke, as she wanted to solve this as quickly as possible.

She told Alchemy that she is now pregnant and that she is trying to know the gender of the child in her womb.

She felt refreshed after talking about it to soone.

Oscar listened to her patiently, but he was a little

Every ti Lelia said sothing, Oscar would get fidgety and look at Lelias face.

He treated her as a fragile woman as if she would break at any mont

To be honest, she wasnt the only one who felt uncomfortable.

But it didnt an she couldnt express her displeasure to Oscar.

Recently, Oscar was even getting morning sickness on behalf of Lelia. In a way, he was suffering more than her, so it was embarrassing to criticize him, saying, Stop being overprotective.

After she finished her ramble, a ssage from Alchemy appeared on the screen.

[Congratulations. You are pregnant with twins.(-)]

Huh?

Huh? What did I see now?

[As a result of the diagnosis, its one boy and one girl. Appears that you are pregnant with twins.( ) ]

Huh

Lelia was fiddling with her still flat stomach with a bewildered expression.

Twins?

***

That night.

Lelia pulled Oscar as soon as he lay on the bed next to her, she said.

Oscar, I have sothing to tell you.

What?

Oscar looked at Lelia with a nervous expression. Lelia said as she patted his cheek, pitying Oscar, who looked a little lean.

Its about our baby.

Yes

I think they are twins. No, they are twins.

As she said that, Oscars eyebrows wrinkled. Lelia quickly noticed this.

Did you know?

Uh, um.

What, why didnt you tell ? So do you know the gender, too?

That I do not know.

Lelia was puffy with steam, and then she rolled her eyes.

She wanted to surprise him

But he seed to have known this already!

She should have known sooner, since he said he could feel the life force of a child with his magical powers.

But he doesnt know the gender?

Lelia raised the corner of her lips and smiled.

Its a boy and a girl.

At those words, Oscar bowed his head seriously, as if he had heard sothing terrible.

Why are you reacting?

I Im so afraid. Can you stand it?

Oscars face turned pale.

It was difficult for him to imagine just how great the pain of childbirth was.

He searched for a way he could replace her pain with magical powers, but to no avail. Oscar felt that his blood was drying out day by day.

Of course, whenever Lelia talked of giving birth, she would swallow her dry saliva with tension.

But she didnt worry about it anymore. Because she had Alchemy by her side now.

Dont worry, Oscar.

Lelia smiled and handed over a bottle of dicine.

Youve had a hard ti, havent you? Eat this. Its a cure for morning sickness.

It was a treatnt for morning sickness that she made through Alchemy. Oscar had a bewildered expression when he was handed the vial.

A cure for morning sickness?

Yes. The Alchemy Lottery I used to know rember I told you it had disappeared? Its back. Thanks to Alchemy, I was able to make this.

Lelia explained, but Oscar gently placed the vial on the tabletop.

I wont drink it.

He adamantly refused.

Lelias expression turned to embarrassnt.

What why? Are you afraid Ill give you so weird dicine?

Its not like that.

Then why?

Its not hard at all. I cant say this is a struggle.

What? Whats the trouble? You dont even eat properly!

Youre the one whos going through all the trouble. And I have to take this?

Oscar firmly closed his lips, saying he would never drink the dicine.

Okay, well.

Lelia did not force any more because of his decisive attitude.

She wanted to force him to eat, feed him, but she couldnt even do that when he said that.

If he accepts that that is also the process of becoming a father, it is a good experience

Lelia looked at Oscar with a shy expression on her face and then lay down on the bed.

Ah!! Im really happy today!

Lelia smiled and fumbled for the necklace around her neck.

Each ti she pressed and released the jewel, the screen appeared and disappeared.

Oscar glanced at Lelia with a subtle expression, then stared into the air.

A small mana of light appeared and disappeared like fog in the air.

It seed that the existence of Lelias unknown power had returned.

Its called an alchemy spirit Strictly speaking, it didnt seem to feel like that.

He was a little suspicious about it, but it didnt matter as long as Lelia was happy.

Oscar pulled Lelia into his arms as if trying to steal her attention.

As he gently hugged her Lelia, her warm, sweet scent filled his lungs. Oscar ruffled her hair and whispered softly into her ear.

Lelia, are you happy about the twins? Are you not afraid?

Its scary, but At first, I wanted to have two or so. I think it would be more convenient to give birth at once.

Lelia spoke carefreely as if she were talking to soone else. She felt a little nervous up until yesterday, but now she seems okay.

Oscar said with a stiff expression as if he had brought all of Lelias tension.

Im so scared of you being sick.

As he rubbed his cheek against the nape of Lelias neck and muttered a little, a small laugh could be heard above his head.

It was nice to hear her laugh. Like a bird chirping.

Lelia hugged Oscar, tickled by the touch she felt on the nape of her neck.
