Chapter 125: The Daughter’s Na
“Bea, you did great. The baby is adorable.....I won’t approve of soone weaker than taking my girl in marriage.”
“Fufu, say what you like but it’s a bit too early to think about that.”
I recovered from anemia and was now talking with Bea, as the baby slept next to her.
This child is my daughter......
“She’s so little.”
“She is. But it’s normal for babies to be this little.”
(She’s bigger than Toto! She’s my younger sister, but she’s bigger that Toto!)
Toto was a bit troubled by this fact but she, nonetheless, didn’t separate from her younger sister for she was too lovely.
It appears that she was completely chard by the baby.
“However, I’m happy that the delivery ended safely. Everyone was worried, so I’ll have to go thank them.”
“That’s right. Besides, you have to think of a na too.”
(Na! What na will you give her!?)
.........A na, huh?
Can I choose it?
“Bea, can I choose the na? Did you also have sothing in mind?”
“Eh! Will-will you listen to my opinion too!?”
“Why are you even surprised? That’s only natural, isn’t it?.....Is it perhaps different in this world?”
“Yes, only n are allowed to pick the na for their children. I chose the na for Toto-chan, but this girl is the Duke’s Household’s eldest daughter......”
I see, in this world......this is customary among nobles.
“I’m a stranger so I don’t really mind. Shall we think about it together?”
“Yes! I want to give her a wonderful na.”
(Toto too! Toto will think about it too!)
I spent a wonderful happy ti with my newly increased family.
“Grandson-in-law-dono, I heard your talk just now. What a wonderful idea to choose the na together with everyone! I shall cooperate as well.”
“Son-in-law-dono thinks a lot about his family. I shall cooperate too.”
The ones who opened the door and entered the room were the Frontier Count and mother-in-law Lamia, both their faces covered in smiles.
......Cooperate? Choose together with everyone?
Who talked about that?
We looked at them blankly, but those two didn’t mind it.
“I heard from the maids that, even though it is natural for the father to choose the na......you want to choose it together with everyone.”
“I, as well, was deeply moved by this, father. Bea has a wonderful husband.”
“I can’t believe I will be present when choosing the na for my great-grandchild.”
“......I, as well, have beco a grandma......Grandma.......”
Both of them had distant looks in their eyes, in a different way, that is. I couldn’t think of any plan to deal with these two.
What the hell did the maids’ unit tell them.....?
“Mother-in-law, how about calling my daughter ‘Lamia-sama’?”
“That is wonderful, Zest-sama.”
For the ti being, reviving my mother-in-law was my top priority.
It seems that Bea supported on this so she followed along with my plan.
“Lamia-sama?.....Let’s choose this then.”
The light returned in my mother-in-law’s eyes.
I can check the situation this way.....For now, I’ll leave the Count alone.
He’s still imrsed in sothing and has no reaction at all.
“Well, how about we start now to properly consult about the na!”
Before Bea and I could complain about why things have turned this way, the Frontier Count ca back to life.
“Leave it to , I have about 108 suggestions!!”
“I can’t lose this either! When we chose Bea’s na.......we consulted for three days and three nights, so much that Sonia begged us to let him go to sleep!”
And so, the very enjoyable family council for choosing the na of my daughter has started.
“As I said, we must choose a na that is related to Bea.”
“No, we must choose a legendary flower’s na for my granddaughter.”
Two hours have passed since we’ve started.
The intensity of the fight between the Count and my mother-in-law continued to increase.
We were at the stage of choosing a range first, before getting to the actual na.
“Be-Bea......Will this ever get settled?”
“I don’t know.....I’m starting to feel a bit scared too.”
(Dad, I’m sleepy.)
Toto crawled into the bed next to the baby and fell asleep imdiately.
I bet Bea is tired too......She’s rubbing her eyes.
“It appears that it’ll take so ti for this to be settled. You should rest as well, Bea.”
“I’ll do just that. Please take care of this.”
I prepared a futon 1 for her, then returned to the battlefield.
Dear .
“Then, we’ll just go with a flower’s na.”
“Yes, this is splendid.”
“Thanks god......truly.....”
They finally chose the na range, and that was the na of an ancient and legendary flower.
In short, one of the flower nas that the forr Japanese stranger left behind.
This way, I can participate as well and I think it’s a great idea.
I have no complaints......I really don’t, but this fight is lasting way too long.
“Then, let’s propose so nas. Japanese style nas, right?”
“Hahaha, you an western style na, right?”
Another two hours fight started for choosing either a Japanese style na or a western style one.
It seems that I can’t go to sleep for another long while.
“As I thought, a western style na is better.”
“You’re right, we must choose a western style na.”
“Master, please stay strong. They finally chose sothing.”
“Suu, I can’t do this anymore.”
In order force my eyes open, I kept on pinching my legs; but this was starting to be insufficient.
I lightly stabbed myself with a sword, then used healing magic as I tried to endure this long fight.
I’ve been through a lot these past hours so I really wanted to sleep.....
“Well now, it’s finally the ti we’ve all been waiting for. Let’s propose the nas.”
“Hohoho, you shall be astonished by the amount of proposals I have in mind.”
How cos these two are so energetic?
I corrected my posture backed up only by willpower.
However, this was the mont when I rembered sothing.
A very essential thing.....
The door opened violently with a bang.
We all looked at it simultaneously and saw my master standing in the door.
“Bea! Is Bea all right!!??”
It was the mont when our family council increased by one mber.
“She’s adorable. This girl will beco a beautiful woman similar to Bea.”
“......Yes.”
“Right? It makes rember when I gave birth to Bea.”
“......Yes.”
“Hoho, you’ll have a lot of hardships in future. You must get rid of all bad insects.”
“......Yes.”
I have almost no mories of this mont.
According to Suu, at that ti I was a living thing which could only muster a ‘Yes’ at fixed intervals.
My mories returned right after that mont.
That was when the door opened again with a huge noise.
“I’ve kept you waiting! I have brought the sister, the holy woman-dono!”
“Holy woman......I am nothing but an equally loved child of God. As the trees don’t compare their sizes, as the winds don’t compete with their strength. We are all like the continuous sound of rainfall. And that is the will of God!”
“AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH”
“Wh-wh-wh-what’s wrong, grandson-in-law-dono?”
“Son-in-law-dono? Get a hold of yourself.”
“E-eh? What’s wrong, your excellency?”
“Master, don’t do anything rash!”
“Wh-what happened? Zest-sama!? What’s going on!?”
“Waaah.......Waaaaaah......”
(Mom, Mom! My little sister is crying!!)
My spasm continued for a while.
I could no longer......endure this situation.......
