Chapter 251: You’re Gonna Be a Big Sister!
Maria was pregnant. That news had so dumbfounded I lost my words. No, it was not just . Finia, Cortina, and even Lyell were in the sa state.
“Your daddy worked hard for it lately. You will finally have a younger sister or a brother.” “Wait, is… is that really true?” “Lyell, why are you acting so doubtful?” “I an…” “You’re going to say that you have no recollection of it, are you?” “No, I an, I have more than enough of them… Ever since my physical condition improved so much, I…”
Lyell’s words caused Maria to blush. Based on that reaction, he had a very good idea. Let just put it out there first: go explode!
“Isn’t it great, Nicole? You are going to be a big sister!” “Wait, huh… Huh? Huuuh?”
As the realization settled in, I raised an astonishing voice. Finia and Cortina also started to regain their sanity.
“Congrats, Maria! You really had us waiting on the second one!” “Congratulations, Lady Maria, Lord Lyell, and Lady Nicole! You have to be a good sister.” “Huh, oh. Thanks?”
Finia expressed her wishes towards as well, but it didn’t feel real to just yet. I was gonna be a sister…?
“W-W-What should I do, Finia! I’m gonna be a big sister!?”
As soone aiming to revert to a man, being a big brother was the ideal. I was an orphan in my previous life, so my family growth itself made honestly happy. However, presently I was far from that ideal.
Finia gently received in her arms while I was in a state of confusion.
“It will be okay. I am sure you will beco a wonderful big sister, Lady Nicole!” “No, that’s not what I ant! “I can already picture it. A lovely scene of a beautiful, grown-up Nicole and her little sister!” “Wait, it could be a brother.” “No, it is definitely a sister! Oh, how happy I will be to serve two beautiful sisters!” “Finia, calm down. You are definitely shaken now.”
I ended up interjecting, seeing Finia pumping her firsts and being unusually insistent. Maria observed us with a calm expression. Hey, stop watching and cast Sanity on her or sothing, will you?
“Finia, you have to love him even if it’s a boy, okay?” “Of course! Lady Nicole’s little brother would be the sa as my own. No, that would be too presumptuous for … But I shall serve them with all my heart. I will use my all in upbringing them in every possible way!” “You don’t have to do that much. But since you look so reliable I will do just that and rely on you.” “Maria’s second kid, huh… This calls for a celebration.” “It took ten years with Nicole… And well, it’s been ten years since then too, but it was fast if we count from the mont of drinking that dicine.” “You don’t know when to give up, Lyell. Just shut up and take responsibility.” “What more responsibility is there for to take?”
Still… I’m going to gain a brother or a sister, huh… But given my situation, the kid might get whether I am a big sister or a brother. When I learn Polymorph and change into a man every day, that would definitely confuse them.
“Still… A sibling, huh…”
Currently, I had Michelle, Letina, and Cloud who were like troubleso younger siblings to . The problem, however, was that they also thought of as a younger sister. I wouldn’t deny being a troubleso one, but I was reluctant about being treated as younger by ten-year-old kids.
I had to keep my sisterly act together and improve my standing.
“Yeah, I have to keep it together.” “Oh my, already in the sister mode, are we?”
Maria poked fun at after hearing my mutter. Still, I always caused her nothing but worry, so I wanted to let her be at ease at least now. By the ti my to-be-born sibling would grow up, I would have to leave the house.
If I left without dispelling that unease, it would keep worrying Maria and the rest.
For that reason, I had to play—or I guess play is not the right word—a dependable big sister, and instill that impression.
“Of course. I won’t make anyone worry about !” “In that case, would you stop Adventuring? I keep worrying every day that you might die sowhere.” “W-Well, let’s just say this and that are different…”
Being Maxwell’s disciple was part of it, but gaining direct experience was also important. That experience also helped with my growth in the magic departnt. It was indispensable training on my way to mastering Polymorph.
“I will go let Maxwell know.” “It’s late already. Maybe tomorrow?”
The sun was already set and the streets were dark.
The kidnappers have already been exterminated and Klein’s matter was also done, but that didn’t an that common scoundrels disappeared too.
Maria advised to stop because of such uneasiness. However, people who could give trouble wouldn’t be found so easily.
“Okay, I’ll take Michelle with then.” “Mh, well, alright then… I suppose.” “Isn’t it fine? That girl’s skill with the bow is extraordinary.”
Since Cortina, the local person, gave her permission, Maria also consented to it. In truth, I wanted to report about my parents to Maxwell, and also talk about the timing to take out the tax certificate, but it should be easy even if Michelle followed .
I could just trick her to remain outside of the room and finish the discussion in the anti. Maria’s pregnancy was involved, so she shouldn’t suspect anything.
“Well then, I’m going!” “Take care. Good grief, she is such a lively one.” “Seeing her like that, you realize that she is really still a cute child.” “What are you talking about, Nicole is always super cute! She’s my angel!” “Dear, shut up please.” “Okay.”
Hearing the conversation behind , I thought confidently: a mber of the Six Heros or not, n could never win against won.
