A Little Time had Passed
It had been about a month since the meeting between the Elven Queen and King Reyd of Allysia Kingdom.
So far, there had been no word from both rulers.
Nell, who was in charge of communication, told me that it was taking a long time because it was a new project, and that it was more difficult than expected to decide on the competition and the rules.
However, it seemed that the general outline itself had been decided, and the next meeting was scheduled to be held at Rogard Empire in the near future.Some might say that I have been taking it easy, but in fact, I have actually been busy working hard every day with a certain project as well.
I had been spending every day working tirelessly on the expansion of the dungeon area.
Although, the expansion that I was working on was not for the purpose of securing DP, so the scope was rather small, and I just kept extending a road continuing onward, so in terms of area, it was not much larger than before.
However, since the purpose of this project was to create a proper road…. this result was fine.
As long as it was within my dungeon area, I would be able to install dimension doors, so this would still make a lot of significance.
The final destination of this path would be the Demon Kingdom’s Royal Capital [Regighihegg].
I was doing this so that if something happens to Lefi, a doctor could be brought to her right away.Her belly had also grown, albeit a little bit.
Lefi also had a good style and a slender figure, so any changes in her body could be easily noticed.
I could also see changes in her physical condition from time to time, and she was probably feeling some pain right now that I, as a man, couldn’t understand.
She never complained about her physical condition, or rather, she seemed happy because she could feel that her child was growing normally…
I have felt Lefi’s strength many times before, but now that she had become a Mother, I think I could feel it even more than before.
Women were strong.
Also, I wouldn’t know because I have no knowledge of such things… but according to Layla, who was rapidly improving her knowledge, there was a delay of about two months in the changes in Lefi compared to a normal human pregnancy.
And, according to Layla’s assessment, the delay could be even longer in the future.
It seems that the Dragon Race’s characteristics could also be seen in the duration of the pregnancy.
After all this time, Lefi’s body still remained quite a mystery.
Well, for a man, a woman’s body was a mystery in itself – the very idea was unpleasant, so I should stop thinking about it.
Although I kept thinking about what to name the child she would give birth to…I still haven’t come up with a particular name yet.
It would be something that the child would carry for the rest of their life, until the day they die, so it was not an easy decision to make.
I have been searching for a name that could be written in kanji characters, but that would not sound like something from this world. So it was difficult to decide.
…I also needed to think of more potential names for when Lyuu, Nell, and Layla have a child of their own.
Well…not with Nell yet, but with Lyuu and Layla, a child may be born earlier than with Lefi depending on the case, so if I relax too much, that day would come very soon.
Oh no, I get nervous just thinking about it.
I have already prepared myself for it, but…I have to try my best once again.
Anyway, I am getting sidetracked, but that’s basically the reason why I have been spending my days expanding the roads, and when I run out of DP, I hunted monsters to turn into DP and continued the process once more.
So far, I had already extended the road to the inside of the demon realm, and by riding Rir, I could reach the royal capital of the demon realm in a single day.
…Before I continue this any further, I should meet with Finar and get his permission before making a path when I am within his realm.
And since I was going to visit him, I might as well ask him about the competition.
“Okay, Rir, we’ll stop working on the expansion tomorrow and go to the Demon Capital. You can come along with me.”
“Kuu?”
“Ah, I’ll meet up with Finar. I think it’s a little bit bad to incorporate his territory into mine without his permission. Even though I have already extended this far.”
Speaking of which, I recently noticed an item that would require a huge amount of DP that I would never reach even if I kept accumulating DP for a hundred years, [Do?mi?nu?].
Which was probably, [Promotion to Dominus].
At that time, when I looked at it, I couldn’t help but think, “What the…?”
However, looking at it again now, I noticed that the DP required for this had been reduced…
But the amount only changed a little, so it was still sky high at the moment…but I guess the more I expand the dungeon area, the more it decreases.
The more the dungeon expands, the more powerful it grows after all.
My theory was probably not far off from the mark.
“Kuu.”
“Yes, Fuhahaha, my domain is going to cover the world before you know it!”
And so, while joking around with Rir, we proceed with the day’s work–.
