Chapter 163 – Chapter 157 – Until the New Queen Comes 2 (1)

Marina stretched out her arms as she leaned back against the headboard of her bed.

“Come on, Lenny. Do you want to come to her mom?”

“… ?”

If it were another child, she would have jumped into her mother’s arms at once.
Timid or thoughtful, Lenny didn’t immediately jump on her mother.

Instead, she looked at Hernán and Marina at the same time, and only shuddered.

“Lenny? Mom, it really doesn’t hurt anymore!”

As Marina seduced her by clapping her hands, the child finally asked a question cautiously.

“Mom, don’t you?”

Contrary to her saying she’s not sick, she still hasn’t gotten out of her bed, which is questionable.

“I’ll hug you for a second.”

Hernán flashed the still cautious child.
She then took her child’s hand and moved it toward her saintess’s hair.

“Is Lenny’s favorite mom’s pigtails? Haven’t seen you in a while?”

“Yes…”

Marina’s daughter seemed to be in a good mood, as Marina carefully played her hair in her pigtails.
Her mother, the saintess, also leaned over her, making it easier for Lenny to touch her.

“I braided it because Lenny was coming. Do you like to see mom?”

“Yes.”

Her child’s voice brightens a little.
Hernán quietly whispered in her child’s ear as he made sure that her daughter was fully focused on her mother’s blond hair.

“If Mom has this hair, you can hold Lenny too. Ouch, that means no.”

It is difficult for a child to understand that Marina quickly recovered in two weeks thanks to her healing magic.
Instead, Hernán went on to tell her one easily recognizable symbol for her child.

“I’m still wearing this pigtail, so can I hold Lenny?”

“… Yes!”

At last the child jumped into her mother’s arms with her excited expression on her face.

“Mom!”

Lenny landed safely on her Marina’s chest.
Perhaps because the saintess accepted her huge, fluffy breasts first, she didn’t show much shock.
After all, as long as the cushioning material is substantial, this level seems to be okay.

“I haven’t met you so much, Lenny? Didn’t you forget mom?”

“Yes! Mom, I kept thinking!”

“Really?”

Compared to before Marina was injured, she is rather more intimate.

Hernán felt that her heart was at ease.
And Marina, who had recovered her body quite a bit, felt that she would be able to sleep with her children in the future.

“Hernan.”

Marina, who was enjoying her welcome reunion with her child, noticed him watching from the side.
Hernan also nodded his head and took out a prepared item from his pocket.

Marina took it without the knowledge of the child in her arms and opened her mouth again.

“Lenny? Would you like to listen for a second?”

The child who pulled her face out of her saintess’ chest took a deep breath in her.

“Paa! Yes.”

Lenny held her mother’s breasts with her head fully up.
Marina smiled at the figure and hugged her child a little tighter.

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen Lenny and her, so her mom and dad prepared a present.”

“Gift?”

The quiet and precocious Lenny is also a child.
Seeing her eyes twinkle at the word gift.

“Is it so. Gift.”

She held up the bracelet, about the width of two of her adult fingers, in full view of her child.

“And…”

An elf-made bracelet made by twisting well-dried leaves, wild flowers, and tough grass.
Lenny opened her eyes wide as she took it from her mother’s hand.

“If you hold it in your hand, it will break, so here it is.”

Hernán put the bracelet under the child’s left hand.
It fit perfectly on Lenny’s wrist, and it had a plain but subtle charm.

“Do you like gifts for mom?”

“Yes!”

Her daughter, who looked at her for a while with her bracelet, eventually began to doze off in her mother’s arms.

“It’s almost the first time I’ve seen Lenny so relaxed.”

“Yes…”

The two of them sat side by side on the bed, watching the child sleep with her right hand wrapped around the bracelet on her left arm.

“You’ve definitely gotten a lot better. Even a child can move while holding it easily.”

“The Demon King’s healing magic was very good. How can you get here quickly from the level of inconvenient movement?”

Marina handed her child to Hernán, referring to Sharpie.
And she wiped the sweat from her forehead.

“Of course it’s not all better yet.”

As she put her child down, she laid her body more comfortably.
Then he massaged her back and shoulders.

“Are you a bit overbearing?”

“No big deal. Now, let’s start by talking about Silnia.”

Hernán felt a bit regretful.
It was because she wanted Marina to have more time to focus on her own child.

However, she showed signs that she was having a hard time, and her work on Silnia needs to be progressed quickly.

That’s why he matched her saintess’s words.

“I have spoken to Silnia to some extent about getting pregnant again.”

“Does Silnia herself say she will do it?”

“He liked it.”

Hernán laughed.

“Not just this time, she says she will eat right after her next birth and get pregnant again.”

“… I believe that Silnia will not be greedy for her rank either.”

Marina laughed bitterly and said in a joking tone.
Hernan also laughed at those words and shook her head.

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

He just said that.
Marina seemed curious, she tried to ask more, but she soon stopped.

“All right. It’s impossible for me to know everything between you, Ernan and Silnia.”

The saintess naturally shrugged her shoulders.
A move that would have been impossible just a week ago.

Hernando felt that his back was almost healed these days, so he realized once again that Sharpie’s magic skills were at a high level.

Towards Hernan, who was lost in his thoughts about Sharpie for a moment, Marina said her words.

“Anyway, for Silnia to be active, she needs to appease Lenny. Today is that monumental day.”

Hernan agreed, joining the flow of conversation again.

“Certainly, Saint Marina gave it to me, so the effect is good. When I just handed it over, like a ghost, they noticed that Silnia made it and rejected it.”

From the ring to the corolla.
A necklace or a bracelet like the one you gave me today.

Countless flowers vanished in vain.

Lenny is surprisingly quick to notice her.
No, like her own mother, she was quite quick-witted, and she would quickly figure out where the gifts Hernan always brought came from.

She couldn’t hide her dislike of it, although she didn’t overtly break or break it.

But today.
The child was delighted when Marina handed it to him even though Sylnia made it the same way.

“Certainly contrary to what Hernan had heard, Lenny liked it so much that she was surprised this way as well.”

So said Marina, still clutching her bracelet, looking at her sleeping daughter.

“I don’t think I did anything very well…”

To the muttering saintess, Hernán did not offer any words of consolation or encouragement.
Instead, getting up, she carefully laid Lenny, who had been handed to her, to her marina and beside her.

“Hernan?”

“Today’s conversation will be like this.”

“But…”

“Haven’t you figured out a way to attack Lenny’s heart anyway? The rest is something for me and Silnia to think about more.”

Marina looked at her child lying next to her and bit her mouth shut.

“And she’ll come here often, even to properly give Lenny her presents, so she’ll have plenty of opportunities to speak. Ah, sooner or later the saintess will have to practice walking again.”

“… After all, Silnia, are you going to fix her son’s leg soon?”

Hernán nodded his head with a serious face.

“It’s too hard to procrastinate. I hope Silnia gets it fixed soon.”

He didn’t even bring up the story of the demon’s divine power.
There is no need for her to say such a thing in front of a woman who is reluctant to use her wish ticket.

“I will come with the wish ticket as soon as possible. The new queen is still at the lowest rank, so she needs a lot of permission from her superiors.”

“All right. By the way…”

Marina looked at her child sleeping next to her with her perplexed expression.

“Wouldn’t it be better to just take Lenny along? Because I can’t even walk yet. If there is a problem, it is troublesome.”

“I will come back in a little while. She’s been with me for a while.”

Marina let out a deep sigh and nodded her head.

“For a moment, there should be no problem.”

“Then take care of me, Marina.”

“Oh… It’s better to refrain from just calling names.”

The image of her former seduction disappears somewhere, and Marina makes her face blush just by her name.

Hernán saw Marina like that and felt her playfulness.

“Okay. Then take good care of her, honey.”

“Yes… ?”

Marina’s face was stained with astonishment.
I had often seen her surprised face, but it felt different now.

Engraving this image clearly in his memory, he opened the door.

“I’ll be back later, saintess.”

“Ah… Yes.”

Marina hurriedly pulled the covers over her child and lay down on her bed.

“That, and!”

The moment Hernan almost left, Marina said with only her face sticking out of the covers.

“Don’t use such foolish words to the clergy!”

It seems that I have come too close.
Still, it’s worth seeing such a reaction.

With a simple wave of her hand, Hernán closed the door.

“Under…”

The saintess, who was left alone with her child, put on a complicated expression.
Then she saw her daughter reaching out her hand towards her and groping her breasts.

“I’m afraid I might be struck by lightning as soon as I leave…”

Marina lifted her top and nursed her baby.

She had been breastfeeding for the first time in a while and her senses weren’t bad.

* * *

Hernán, who left Marina with her daughter, decided to stop by the garden before heading to the nursery, where the children were napping.

Before meeting Silnia in the evening, she needs to pick the flowers she asked for, and thanks to Carine and Sharpie, who have improved significantly these days, taking care of her children isn’t too tight.

So Hernán arrived at the garden with a light heart.

“Ugh… !”

But as soon as he set foot in the garden, he felt a strange pressure along with a mild headache.

“Why are you doing this?”

In fact, from the first time the garden opened, I felt a little strange when I entered this place.
But lately, that feeling has evolved in a more weighty direction.

Of course, it wasn’t to the point where he couldn’t stand it, so he slowly headed towards the flower field.

Not only the flowers Silnia asked for, but also flowers for Karine, whom she has recently fallen in love with again.
Every time she receives a flower, Karine, who puts it in a vase instead of a black rose that has disappeared, has recently been very lively and beautiful.

Feeling her heart pounding at the delighted appearance of Karine, he soon moved closer to the center of the garden.

“It gets worse the closer you get here.”

He felt his body grow heavier.
And he saw the black bloodstains still on the clearing floor.

Slightly increasing headache.
Unlike the sex drive suppression magic, it just felt like something heavy was squeezing in.

“After…”

In the end, Hernán decided to take a break and go down.
I’m sorry for the girls below, but this one with a better back has been doing quite a bit of work lately, so you can ask them to look at it.

He carefully pointed out the sensation he was feeling now, and guessed when it had become so severe.

“Magic Stone… Is that when it came in?”

When recreating memories here with Karine, I felt quite similar to now.
However, at that time, he was so highly focused that he sometimes forgot this feeling, and sometimes dismissed it as simply being nervous about the situation.

So I just skipped it, but the feeling then is definitely similar to now.

Then, does it have something to do with the magic stone?
Or something else?

As I held on to the magic stone pouch on my waist and thought about it, I suddenly heard a loud voice.

“L!”

“Sharpie?”

Sharpie came up to see what was going on.
Why did you come

“It’s almost time for dinner! If you get too hung up on…”

“Dinner? Already?”

Ernan was puzzled and jumped up.
And he felt dizzy for a moment and stumbled.

“L!”

The demon king hurriedly ran to Hernan.
