Announcement Hey, I’m doing my big bi-annual survey. I do this twice a year, and usually don’t get too much feedback from the public sector. I would like as many people to complete it as possible. This is how I make decisions on writing for the future, so if you have any interest in my work, please check it out. Click here to do my survey. “I’ll kill you! I’ll definitely kill you!”
Naturally, we were all in the King’s Throne room and had just learned that Eliana was pregnant with my baby. I was confused at first, but I did figure out when and how pretty quickly. Rather than panicked, I felt a sense of relief.
“Calm down! You’ve already made your point.” Elaya sighed.
“Is… this really okay?”
The King had been restrained by some kind of petrification spell. He was frozen from the neck down. His entire face was red, but it was still scary because every time he tried to move, there were cracking noises. If he broke out, I’d definitely lose my head again. However, most of my focus was on the blushing Eliana.
“So, it was Eliana after all… that makes me really happy.”
She blushed even more, but she didn’t seem to get what I meant. If it hadn’t been the princess, it would have been a certain Queen, and that was a problem I had shoved deep down and seemingly ignored. I was going to kill Octius if I ever had the chance. He actually allowed me to believe things happened that shouldn’t have happened. In the end, those things happened with the princess, who was worried over me.
This gave me a complicated feeling. It was unintended that I got her pregnant. That was the second accidental pregnancy in my life. If I kept getting girls accidentally pregnant, it would be bad. I was going to end up a scummy guy like my father. I definitely couldn’t be like him.
“I will take responsibility,” I said, my fist tightening. “Eliana.”
“Ah! D-Deek… it’s too soon!”
I reached out and grabbed her hand. “Eliana, I want you…
“Squeak!”
“Squeak? Ah, she passed out!” I just managed to catch her before she fell to the ground.
“Of course she passed out!” Prince Aberis snorted, “You were proposing to her!”
“Huh? I’m not ready for marriage!” I cried out. “I was just saying I wanted to keep the baby!”
“That wasn’t even in question!”
“R-really? I thought it’d be bad if she had a baby out of wedlock though…”
“That’s why we thought you were proposing!”
“I already said I’m not ready for that level of commitment.”
“You bastard! Get your hands off my daughter! You did this and that, and you don’t even want to marry her? I’ll destroy you!”
“To think, Master would sleep with his own stepdaughter… how bold.” Elaya said, not helping the situation at all.
“Ahhhh….” The King started freaking out, trying to break out of his bonds.
Elaya sighed and petrified his head with a wave of her hand. The loudest thing in the room was finally silenced. Elaya was actually really terrifying. I was glad that I didn’t have to fight her directly.
“C-can he breathe like that?”
She shrugged. “I don’t know.”
“Wait, he might die, right?”
“We’ll just resurrect him again.” Edward waved his hand.
“You guys are too casual with murder!” I cried out.
