585 – Double Slope – 2
Today was a day no different from usual.
It was a day where Peddie, riding in a cloth led by charity and kindness, was traveling around the mansion, Titi was running close behind him, and I was watching with jealous eyes.
“Buuu!”
“Master? Why are you doing this?”
“Shall we stop?”
“Wow!”
However, for some reason, the two saints were tired and instead of resting, Fedi gave them a signal to stop first.
This is unusual. Pedigi, who boasts infinite stamina, never stopped this frantic sprint. No one could stop Pedi’s majestic march until charity and kindness told him to stop playing.
‘Are you bored now?’
My heart started pounding.
Our pedi. Wouldn’t it be better to crawl around quietly with Dad and Titi than to play with those beasts? After all, those don’t satisfy our pedis. Pedi was just interested because he got a new toy.
Now is the time for the brief deviation to end and everything to return to normal. A rich and harmonious life of walking on all fours… Is…?
“Huh?”
“Huh?”
“Wow.”
I, too, looked blankly at the scene in front of me, be it charity or kindness.
“Bow!”
I stood.
Pedi stood.
‘Is it a dream?’
For a moment, my head could not accept the information conveyed by my eyes. Pedi, free from the wrapping cloth, groaned to himself and stood on his own two feet. Although she stumbled a little, she reached out to Titi under her her own power her her her, using only her her her her her her her two feet her her.
– Bruise?
Even Titi, who was panting and catching her breath, tilted her head at the unexpected miracle.
However, without paying attention to Titi’s her appearance her her her, Peddie climbed onto Titi’s her back her her her, which was lying face down. Like a general on a horse.
“Ti~ zodiac sign!”
‘What.’
He even said Titi’s name her with slurred pronunciation.
Can’t believe it. Walking and talking at the same time in just one day? Is our pedi a genius?
‘Why TT?’
However, I was heartbroken to learn that Peddie’s first language in history was Titi. It’s true that Titi is our precious family member, but why are we leaving dad and mom alone?
No matter how hard I tried to get Peddie to call me dad. He walked around on all fours, giving up the dignity of a bipedal animal, and watched with tears of blood as his son was lost to two beasts.
I feel like crying. I wonder how the emperor felt when he couldn’t hear from the princess that he was her father.
“Master. Are you crying?”
“Shut up.”
I scolded Charity for opening her mouth without notice and looked at Peddie and Titi.
Titi gets up carefully with Pedi on her back. Pedi bursts into laughter as his visibility her increases.
‘…What do you think?’
It was a sight that made her happy just to look at it, so she smiled. Although she was a little sad, she saw Pedi walk for the first time and say her first words. She’s a titty now, but one day she’ll say daddy.
If so, you can wait patiently. She spends her days with her heart pounding as she wonders when Pedi will call her dad.
“Support me from the side so I don’t fall.”
“Yep.”
“I just need to stick next to you, right?”
Following my instructions, Charity and Kindness clung to the side of Titi and blocked the space where the pedi could fall.
Unfortunately, she could not completely block them since they were smaller than T-T, but if Pedi fell, she would use her body as an airbag to prevent them from getting hurt. That’s enough.
“Aboo!”
As she climbed onto Titi’s back and her two holy beasts were on either side of her, Peddie shrugged her shoulders with a triumphant expression.
I think we will often see Titi walking around with her pedi in the future.
‘I need to put down a mat.’
She might fall off her horse – no, let’s put something very soft on it in case she falls off her horse. Of course, it’s impossible to peel it in one day, so it would be better to focus on places where pedis frequently visit.
“Ti-i!”
– Wow!
And when Peddie called Titi’s name again, Titi walked around her mansion with her light steps.
It was three days before Peddie’s first birthday.
There was something I wanted to do for my children for her first birthday.
“Master. This is the item you mentioned.”
“Oh, thank you for your hard work.”
She raised her eyebrows as she received the box handed to her by the butler.
This is a must-have event for a child’s first birthday. An event that only I know about that does not exist in this world, but exists in other worlds.
‘Everything is there.’
When I opened the box, it contained all the items I had requested, just as the butler said.
A small wooden sword, a blunt quill pen, soft silk thread, and even a coin made in a size that is difficult to swallow.
‘Doljabi things.’
Yes, it’s a stone job. These are items that will bless our pedi’s future.
So, with a happy feeling, I touched each and every Doljabi item in the box. I have no doubt that if it were our Pedi, he would have both civil and military skills, live a long and healthy life, and live comfortably with the wealth I inherited.
Still, if you hold a wooden sword, you’re likely to end up as the best sword in the empire, and if you hold a thread, you’ll live to be 100, but wouldn’t you live to be 120? I prepared these items with that in mind.
‘What if I catch them all?’
Suddenly a thought occurred to me. If I catch all these stone objects, will all possibilities blossom? Then the world won’t leave Pedi alone.
I know it’s such a stupid idea, son. Of course, we also know that doljabi is nothing more than a superstition or a game. Honestly, it’s a bit embarrassing to bring the culture of the old world to a subject that has settled in this world. There’s something like, ‘Wow, the culture of this world is amazing!’ Because it feels like I’m taking a route.
However, I hope that my children can enjoy what I was unable to enjoy as an orphan. I want to achieve the Doljabi that I long for with my children’s hands.
So, despite my shame, I became greedy. For me, for the children.
‘Let’s use this for other kids too.’
I made that promise as I closed the lid. Let’s use what we have prepared like a family treasure rather than a one-time use.
These items will start from Pedi, through the triplets, Friedrich, and the sea, all the way to the future youngest. Like a bouquet that wives are passing down.
“But master.”
“Huh?”
“The ladies were curious about what it was used for.”
The corners of my mouth rose again at those words.
I can legally boast that it is something that can make my dreams come true.
Feeling like a door-to-door salesman, I explained Doljabi products to the women.
It was a bizarre situation where the husband was introduced to a culture he had never heard of, but fortunately the wives’ response was positive.
“It must be fun. You get the blessing depending on what you catch.”
Right now, Mardo, Peddie’s biological mother, ‘knows the child’s potential with the items she caught on her first birthday.’ Enough to show interest in the word.
“But do I have to grab just one?”
“Pfft.”
I burst out laughing at the question filled with slight greed.
Mar also seems to have had similar thoughts as me, as I thought they might be a married couple. I also thought that Pedi swept up all the Doljabi items, and the same goes for Mar.
“It’s about choosing the best of Pedi’s talents. There’s no point in picking up more than one.”
“If it were our pedi, everything would be so good that we couldn’t tell which one is superior…”
It was satisfying to see Mar muttering with regret. She was worried that they would hate her for bringing up such a strange superstition, but she is grateful that she has responded so cooperatively.
“It’s a bit disappointing that there are only four. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a few more?”
“But don’t you have everything you need, including doors, radish, money, and health?”
Meanwhile, Rize and Trixie, who were watching Pedi toddling around, were whispering.
What Rize says also makes sense. I also picked it up from across the street, but I heard that there are also cases where a judge’s baton or stethoscope is raised. It’s not just about studying well, but also looking into the details of your major to decide which route to take.
But I don’t want to post stuff like that. I have no intention of posting anything that symbolizes a specific occupation, such as a judge’s baton or stethoscope.
‘Our Peddie will be an unemployed person with a lot of money.’
Not a public servant who is obsessed with work like me.
“Can something like children’s clothing be recognized as an object?”
Meanwhile, the women’s eyes fell on me after hearing Lynn’s words her her her her.
She instinctively almost asked why she was looking at me, but she held back. Because I remembered that I was a monster who had two sons and three daughters after two years of marriage.
***
Our beloved Pedi. My proud first child and eldest son.
And in the future, the head of the So family will lead the Crasius family, following in Karl’s footsteps.
“Oh my!”
“Yes, mom is here.”
A cute son who has grown up to the point where he can walk on his own two feet and find his mother.
It was Pedi’s first birthday. It’s been a year since our precious treasure came to us.
“Oh my!”
When I saw Pedi waddling over and embracing me in my arms, I couldn’t help but smile.
Carl spoke well of Titi and her mom, but she was upset and asked why she didn’t call her dad, but she’s a smart girl and I believe she’ll be able to tell her dad soon.
“Mar.”
Eventually, Karl came over after greeting the guests who attended the banquet.
As soon as I thought about the knife, the knife came. After all, we are a couple with similar thoughts and hearts.
“Now let’s have them take their seats. The guests can’t even see the main character’s face.”
“Hehe, that’s how it should be. We can’t let the people who took this precious step go away without seeing anything.”
Most of the guests couldn’t see Pedi’s face as he was moving around. It’s a banquet for Pedi, but it’s ridiculous that Pedi doesn’t show her face.
“Knife.”
“Huh?”
“Our pedi… I hope we can hold on to the thread and live a healthy life.”
There is no need to be smart, make a name for yourself as a martial artist, or live a wealthy life. As a parent, the best thing you want is for your child to live a long, healthy life.
“Me too.”
Then Carl smiled softly and stroked Pedi’s cheek.
“As long as you live healthy and long, I can give you everything else.”
It was a confident statement that made me burst into laughter.
Peddie did not grab her thread as Carl and I had hoped.
“Would you like to pick something you like, our pedi?”
“Woo?”
He just tilted his head, looking at the items in the distance while being held in Carl’s arms.
In some ways, it is an unexpected situation, but it is natural for a baby to not move as adults want. Me, Carl, and the other guests smiled at Pedi’s tilt.
“Now, take your favorite one.”
“Jo─ ah─?”
“Yes! What I like!”
In response to Peddie’s slurred pronunciation, Carl nodded repeatedly and slowly approached the room.
It’s a little ugly, Carl. Is there anything that determines what a pedi likes?
“Apppa!”
“…Huh?”
However, I didn’t have to look at the ugly sword for long.
Peddie blinked her round eyes and grabbed Carl’s sleeve. She smiled brightly and said, “Daddy.”
“Ah-baa! Apppaa!”
“Uh… Uh…”
As his father continued to attack, Carl looked blankly at Peddie and was speechless.
“Ab-ppa! Jo-ah!”
Ah.
Carl cries.
