Vol. 2 Chapter 194

Night Conversation

Translated by Raizu

The conversation with my father continued late into the night.

There were many things to talk about, such as the policies of the Quordenze family going forward, how we should act in the Royal Capital, and where we would end the war with the Spierzeig family.

I talked about my own strategies that I have come up with so far, and my father would comment on them. Sometimes my father agreed with my ideas, and sometimes pointed out my mistakes and bad points.

The most interesting thing was when we had conflicting opinions.

When it came to a topic whose conclusion is based on my thoughts as a former Earthling, my father would ask for the reasoning behind that conclusion, but even if I explained it, half of it wouldn’t be understood. However, instead of being dismissed outright, he gave me a model answer of how a Noble thinks like this, and some of my opinions were accepted. It was so meaningful that I lost track of time as I explored the common ground of both sides’ thoughts.

The frank discussion with my father was really interesting, perhaps helped by the sense of security that I had finally received the offer as the next Head of the family.

Thus, the night went by in the blink of an eye.

Even though I had promised to read a book with Fanny before going to bed, it turned out that I wasn’t able to fulfill it.

I would like to hope that the servant who was waiting at the entrance of the innermost room will read the atmosphere and offer some kind of excuse.

[How is Fanny doing?]

I called out to Tesh who was leading me through the corridor.

[The Princess was waiting for you, but…]

Apparently, Fanny was waiting in my room. It is my little sister’s privilege to be able to enter a room where the owner is absent.

It seems that Fanny’s exclusive servant proposed to withdraw because it was late at night, but it was flatly rejected.

[…Does that mean she’s still waiting in my room?]

[I didn’t want the Princess to stay up reading late at night, so we’ve been waiting for the Young Master in your bedroom…..she went to bed a long time ago. I think she has probably gone to sleep already.]

The idea that children should not stay up late is the same whether it is in Japan or the Eruo continent. It is said that Fanny was told to lie down on the bed regardless of whether or not she slept, and the book was confiscated by the servants, and she reluctantly went to bed.

It’s cute that it’s my bed instead of her own bed. When I heard Fanny’s behavior like this, it’s troublesome because it makes me want to just love the cat-like girl purely and earnestly.

While I imagined stroking Fanny while happily mumbling [yosh yosh yosh yosh yosh yosh] in my head, I arrived in front of the bedroom door.

[Good night, Young Master.]

Tesh opened the door and the servants lined up in a row to greet me before going to bed.

Thinking that Fanny was sleeping, I took a step into the room without replying, and closing the door quietly behind me.

Several maids were already waiting in the bedroom. Two of them were Fanny’s exclusive maids.

As expected, I had no intention of embracing them for now. Besides, I just embraced Koharii earlier, so my semen hasn’t accumulated again yet. If I want to put it out, I can certainly do so, but it would be rude to them to go that far.

…..That said, it was a rash idea to hold Fanny tonight. In any case, I’ve decided that it is better to store semen without masturbating until my balls are about to burst, then release it all at once.

I should avoid doing haphazard things such as hugging just because I can. On our first night, I want to enjoy cumming while confirming the close brother-sister love.

A brother and sister spend the night at their parents’ house having sex to make babies. Yeah, I get an erection just from this sentence.

Guided by the maids, I leaned forward a little and walked around the room.

Come to think of it, it’s been several months since I’ve slept in a bed in Newnelly Castle.

[The Princess has already gone to bed…]

One of the maids spoke in a low-volume that only I could hear.

[Alright.]

Looking around the room, I saw a single ball of light that’s the size of a miniature light bulb.

It advanced in the air as if leading me, and when it reached the bed, it climbed straight up and stopped moving near the ceiling.

One of the maids lifted the blanket and made a space for me.

[Good night.]

After bowing, the maid sat down on a chair near the bed.

[Yeah.]

The bed in Newnelly Castle is unnecessarily large.

I crawled through the bed like a caterpillar and headed to where I’m looking.

[…..Zzz……..zzz………….]

Fanny was sleeping on her side, facing the center of the bed. In other words, the direction from where I would enter.

I adjusted the position of my pillow and faced Fanny’s sleeping face.

[Are you asleep yet?]

I called out to him softly, but the only reply was a cute sleeping breath.

[…I made you wait.]

As I said this, I put one hand on Fanny’s cheek and felt the curve drawn by her soft skin with my palm. The feeling of her soft cheeks was irresistible.

If you gently poke it with your fingertips, it will give you a good elasticity that will not lose to you. I want to touch her growing boobs the most right now, but if Fanny wakes up, I have no excuse to save myself.

[Kyaa, onii-sama is pervy!], if it ends with just that, then I’ll keep rubbing it. But if she silently dismissed me, the past 10 years would be wasted. In that respect, since my father, mother, and grandfather touched her cheeks, there was no problem even if I, my older brother, touched them.

With my fingertips, I tasted the punipuni characteristic of young girls as I slowly closed the distance and checked my sister’s face.

[……….cute…..]

I was about to let out a sigh.

My little sister sleeping with a reassuring expression is so cute that I want to throw everything away and hug her.

I gently stroke the eyelashes of her left eye with the tip of my index finger. The long eyelashes had a firmness, and it seemed as if even a grain of rice could be placed on them.

The Newnelly silk pajamas are simple yet elegant, and the slightly disheveled look gives off a healthy sense of eroticism.

And even though you can feel this grace and elegance, there is still something about her youthfulness and cuteness…

[…Fanny, you’re so cute…]

I feel like I understand a little bit about how Japanese girls feel. When I see something really cute, the word “cute” takes precedence over other words and leaks out of my mouth.

This little sister I met on the Eruo continent was simply adorable.

When was the first time I saw Fanny?

If I’m not mistaken, more than half a year has passed since I was born. I remember the moment I first saw her, I was convinced that my younger sister would grow up to be a beautiful woman in the future.

I wanted to be loved by my beautiful little sister as an older brother. Despite my wicked heart, I have been earnestly acting as “a kind and wonderful big brother”.

As a result, Fanny trusts me and treats me without hesitation. It makes me happy and proud. The fruits of my labor lay on my bed.

I gently run my fingers through her beautiful hair.

[Fufufu.]

Even if you put your finger in from around her ear, it would be difficult to reach the tip due to its length.

The light friction that slides between your fingers, the slight resistance of her wavy hair, and the cooling sensation of being drained of heat is irresistible.

I couldn’t reach it with my hand, so I pulled her long hair forward and put my fingers through the “curly” part at the tip.

Curly hair is typical to the people from Eruo continent, but I like this kind of fluffy hair. The wavy hair gives off a gentle persona. It suited Fanny well.

Even on the Eruo continent, women’s hair is important. There was an indescribable sense of superiority in being able to do whatever I wanted with such important hair.

Touching the important part of a sleeping girl, if you look only at the word, you can say that it is like sleeping.

My large palm slid from the top of the head to the back of the head, the nape of the neck, the spine, and around the waist as if rafting the river. It’s a way to fully enjoy the curves of Fanny’s body and the smoothness of her hair.

As I stroked her from the top of her head to her nape, and from her nape to her waist, Fanny sank into my chest. I think she’s unconsciously approaching the warm side.

The distance between our faces was only a few dozen cm.

Now, the hand stroking her hair was placed on the back of her head. If I put a little effort into it and pull in, I’ll easily get a kiss or two. Before the maids waiting by the bed stop me, I must be able to fully enjoy these pale pink lips.

But for some reason, my libido didn’t rise to that level.

I wonder if the healing effect came out from stroking her too much, my heart was strangely at ease. It may be better to advocate little sister therapy, not animal therapy, to academic societies.

I gently parted Fanny’s bangs and kissed her bare forehead. A light tone of chu~ echoes well in the bedroom wrapped in silence.

Forehead pecking is one of the expressions of affection for small children common to Earthlings and Eruo continent people. It may not be the most appropriate thing to do for my little sister who is already 10 years old, but I close my eyes to such a point. This fills not only the person who receives it, but also the heart of the person who does it with love. It’s really comfortable.

When I lifted my lips from her forehead and looked down to see her cute face again.

Her eyelids suddenly fluttered open, and her large eyes caught my attention. Because of the darkness, I couldn’t even tell the color of her eyes.

[Fanny?]

Fanny didn’t say anything while staring at my face.

She may be half asleep, and her eyes seemed to be somewhat unfocused.

[…………..Onii-sama……………..?]

Blinking many times, Fanny spoke with a puzzled look on her face.

I was already right next to her when she woke up. She must’ve been surprised.

[Did I wake you up?]

Placing one hand on her cheek, I lightly kiss her forehead again.

Then, Fanny clung to my chest as if crawling into it.

[…..Onii-sama.]

She pushed her head around my collarbone, as if trying to gouge it out like a drill.

Fanny rubbed against me while mumbling “Uh” or “Mhm”, probably to get rid of her drowsiness.

When I tried stroking the back of her head and patting her back, her mumbling voice grew louder. It sounds like the purring of a relaxing cat.

[I’m sorry I’m late, Fanny. Are you sleepy tonight?]

[…There is…..no such thing…]

Fanny insisted that she wasn’t sleepy, but the interval between her blinks gradually slowed down, and it took time for her closed eyes to open again. I think she’s pretty sleepy.

When I called out to her, she responded with some kind of response, but most of what she said was incomprehensible and half of it was like talking in her sleep.

[…..Onii…sama…..]

[Yeah. I hear you.]

He just called me out and didn’t say anything after that. A sleepy brain doesn’t seem to have the resources to hold a conversation.

She might just fall asleep again. I stroked her hair while thinking so.

[…………………….My Onii-sama…but…]

Those words were overflowing.

Before coming to the bedroom, I heard a little from the servants.

Ever since meeting Koharii today, Fanny seemed to be in a bad mood.

She didn’t show that kind of attitude in front of me during dinner, but I think that’s just how it is with female Nobles.

With my interest seemingly shifting to Koharii, she started wondering if I wouldn’t care about her anymore…even from the servant’s point of view, it’s pretty obvious that she was depressed.

Well, it can’t be helped. Ever since she can remember, Fanny has been constantly exposed to my unconditional love. It is natural to feel an instinctive sense of crisis when it turns to another target.

I writhed at the image of Fanny sitting alone in her room, so I stroked the back of her head to remove it from my mind.

[Are you sleeping already? Good night, Fanny.]

[……….Nnnー…..]

Good night, as I hugged her a little, the surroundings were brightly lit.

The light was extremely intense for my eyes, which were accustomed to the dark, and the glare caused my vision to go black for a moment.

[Fanny?]

But that was only for a moment, and I soon got used to the glare.

Then, when I checked the surroundings, there were four white light bulbs the size of watermelons floating around the bed.

[It’s dazzling.]

[…I’m sorry…but I still…want to sleep, so I don’t have one…]

Fanny’s left hand was sticking out of the blanket. In order to prevent herself from falling asleep, she tried to force herself to wake up with light magic.

Aside from us lying down, the maids must have been very surprised when the ball of light suddenly appeared in front of them.

The light seemed to have made her a little less drowsy, and as the conversation progressed, Fanny’s words gradually became clearer.

I spoke to her a little bit before making her suppress the light magic.

It wouldn’t be exciting to talk in a bedroom that’s too bright. Because it’s dark, you can talk about things you wouldn’t normally be able to do.

When Fanny drew a circle with her index finger, all four floating light spheres disappeared and the bedroom was once again enveloped in darkness.

[The talk with our father really took a while, didn’t it?]

After waking up, Fanny immediately asked me about my lateness.

There are various reasons why it took so long, but I can’t imagine that one of the reasons is the plan to impregnate Fanny. If I think about it, my crotch area could become stiff immediately, so I deliberately exclude it from my consciousness.

[…..Various things about the gathering in the Royal Capital.]

[It must be a very tough talk.]

And then Fanny stopped.

Although she is a laid-back little sister, she is still a Noble Princess. I think she understood that it was a topic she shouldn’t pry any deeper.

However, if this continues, the talk will be over. Like Fanny, I was also looking forward to talking with my beloved sister. For now, let’s just connect with words.

[It’s nice to be able to talk slowly with Fanny.]

[Is it true? I also wanted to talk a lot with my onii-sama.]

Fanny stuttered at first, but she began to talk about recent events.

Talking about what she felt in her daily lives, what she found difficult in her studies, and stories about interesting books.

Fanny gradually became more talkative, perhaps because her consciousness awakened more and more as she continued to talk.

[…Come to think of it, I got tea leaves that are popular in the Royal Capital. Onii-sama, how about having tea with me in the garden tomorrow?]

In response to my reply, Fanny let out a low, Ufufu. It’s dark and I couldn’t quite make out her expression, but I’m sure she had a big smile on her face.

It’s my hunch as her brother for 10 years, but I think she probably worked hard to get up because she wanted to talk about this.

[I’m looking forward to it.]

For me, who is going to the Royal Capital, she would do cute things, such as purchasing tea leaves that are popular in the Royal Capital.

[I can’t go to the capital with you, but… I’ve collected a lot of stories.]

“Isn’t it amazing”, she said in a cheery tone. So instead of replying, I stroked her head. Then, I asked her if she had more stories to tell.

For a moment, Fanny proudly asked, “I wonder?” and so on, but she immediately continued the story.

[Did you know, Onii-sama? Milendorva-style sweets are currently popular in the Royal Capital…]

I was also gathering information about Levios from time to time, but much of what Fanny said was new to me. After all, Fanny and I have different interests, so if the instructions change, the information we collect will also change.

Fanny said that due to the settlement of the internal conflict between Levios and Milendorva, and the influence of Orshian, who is the topic of conversation, there is currently a petit boom in the Milendorva territory in the Royal Capital.

I knew about it myself, but I don’t think it’s as simple as Fanny said. If anything, I have the impression that it is ironic about the Levios family, which has continued to fail. This may also be one of the effects of the declining prestige of the Royal family.

Anyway, such a disturbing story is not suitable for this bed. I decided to continue talking about Fanny’s interests.

[Anyway, does Fanny want me to buy you something?]

Well, said Fanny, putting her hand over her mouth. I couldn’t actually see it, but I knew that it was moving like that with a sign.

[I didn’t say this because I wanted a souvenir, alright?]

Perhaps she wants some kind of black-dyed cloth from Milendorva… I infer from Fanny’s way of talking just now.

The Milendorva territory faces the sea, and I’ve heard that the shells that can be harvested there are good dyes. Fanny said that elegant black-dyed textiles are booming, so I sensed a nuance of “I want it” from her words.

[Then, does that mean I can come home empty-handed?]

[…Onii-sama?]

Being able to lightly tease my sister like this is one of my pleasures as a big brother.

[Fufu, it’s a joke. I’m sure Fanny will like it as a souvenir. Come on, don’t get angry.]

[I’m not angry….. Onii-sama always thinks of what is best for me after all.]

In the end, Fanny didn’t say what she wanted. I guess it’s just as I expected.

But of course, even Fanny would be perplexed if I gave her the fabric as it was. I have to prepare it as a present after processing it in some way.

I’ll contact the clothing company in the city later and ask them to coordinate.

And while I was thinking about that, Fanny hit my chest with her forehead.

[Please be careful in the Royal Capital, okay?]

There was a hint of anxiety in her voice.

[…That’s right, there seems to be a lot of disputes when a lot of Nobles gather. I’ll be careful not to overdo it.]

There are plenty of sparks. Nobles gathered in the Royal Capital with knights and military officers from their territories. They would be vigilant to protect their lord from being harmed by Nobles from other territories, so it is quite conceivable that even trivial things could develop into trouble.

This is my personal impression, but I think the Levios family is really amazing.

The real headquarters of the Levios family is the ancient City of Corbovia, which is somewhat distant from the Royal Capital of Levios. That said, I’m interested in the magnanimity of holding an exhibition of human weapons within their own territory. For the past 80 years, I felt a kind of pride in having served as a member of the Royal family.

[It’s the same with other families, but the priests might do something in the Royal Capital. Even in Newnelly, my onii-sama was in danger. I can’t forgive them.]

[Fanny?]

[Please take care of yourself, Brother. I’m very worried that the priests will prepare the Lord-class soldiers again and aim for your life…and please refrain with the one-on-one duel…alright?]

It was a strange piece of advice that came about as a result of a jumble of three incidents.

The incident was the child of blessing that was hidden by the Holy High Society Church, the emergence of a Charybdis-class mature demon beast, and the one-on-one duel in Operation Serpent’s Fang. Unfortunately I’m involved in all of that.

[I’ve made you worry, haven’t I?]

Rather than pointing out the details, I decided to accept the advice as it is.

It’s true that I’ve only encountered dangerous incidents recently. No wonder Fanny is worried.

[It’s okay, I talked with father. I’m going to go around the capital so that there’s no danger…]

The Holy High Society Church in the city of Newnelly secretly raised the Blessed Child within the Newnelly Field and tried to make him a warrior to oppose the Quordenze family… This was plausible within the city of Newnelly.

Since the Holy High Society Church in Newnelly is still under the control of the Quordenze Army, many citizens believe this rumor to be true.

Apparently, Fanny also heard this rumor.

After subjugating the turtle-type mature demon beast, the Quordenze family secretly proceeded to clarify the plan concocted by the Holy High Society Church.

By having demon beasts in the field eat humans with magical power, it may be possible to promote their growth. Under my father’s instructions, such a hypothesis was made, and just the other day, a top-secret experiment was conducted.

It seems that my father thought it would be a bad idea to write it in a letter just because of the situation, so I didn’t even know that such a verification committee had been formed until I was told in the innermost room earlier.

By the way, it seems that the experiment used a Lord-class adventurer who was rampaging abroad.

It is said that the adventurer was eaten deliciously by a demon beast in the presence of a military officer and a civil officer.

As for the results of the experiment, the hypothesis was correct.

The beast, which was about the size of a dog, grew larger than a horse in less than half a day after eating the adventurer.

In addition, inside the field, horses and elephants are the largest of demon beasts. Beyond that, it will continue to grow in the direction of strengthening and toughening the body, and only when it finally reaches maturity can it gain a large body that is comparable to kaijus appearing in monster movies.

It seems that the monster that grew to the size of a horse had grown in strength as well, and as a bonus, it easily ate the serf adventurers who tried to fight it.

However, it was hard to say whether it had absorbed 100% of the devoured Lord’s power into its flesh and blood. When a senior military officer of the Quordenze army who participated in the experiment was present at the demon beast, he said that it was possible to subdue it alone, and that there was no trouble cleaning up after the experiment.

Since there were several Lord-class adventurers, experiments were conducted several times, but each time the demon beast grew significantly.

As expected, there is no Highlord that can be used for experiments, so it has not been verified, but it is likely that the demon beast will grow further if it were to eat a Highlord.

Once you know it, it’s a fairly simple story.

However, there aren’t many Lord-class adventurers, and even if they do, it’s rare to encounter a monster that’s strong enough to beat a Lord in a vast field.

And when a Lord is eaten, it means he loses. There is no way a serf adventurer could escape from a monster with such strength. All of them will inevitably die.

With that in mind, it can be understood that there is no known information that demon beasts grow violently when they eat Lords. Because nobody ever got a chance to find out. Nobles and high-ranking priests don’t enter the field, so basically the strongest creatures in the field are the Lords.

As to why the priest knew such information, it’s not a very strange story.

Zeth Church Holy High Society has a long history. Not to mention that the academic institution in Holy City Maguaose had established a department that specifically studies demon beasts. It wouldn’t surprise me if they possess knowledge that the Nobles don’t.

The low-ranking priest, Diana, should have been plotting a mature demon beast terrorism using the Blessed Child. For that reason, she raised the Blessed Child, impregnated the abducted woman, and increased the number of Lords. All to increase the number of sacrifices.

However, unfortunately, the plan was exposed, and they had to hurry up and give birth to a mature demon beast. Therefore, the three people who were added as sacrifices would be Lupetta, Melgin, and the Lord-class mercenary thugs.

My father came to the conclusion that the series of incidents was a terrorist attack led by the low-ranking priest Diana.

And because of that conclusion, my father decided to spread the rumor. A false rumor with a little bit of truth mixed in that the priest of the Holy High Society Church in the city raised a Blessed Child in the field to become a warrior to fight the Quordenze family.

My father decided that the information that demon beasts could be artificially grown should be kept secret, at least for now.

I believe it’s the correct decision.

[I’m more worried about Fanny staying in Newnelly. If I think about a mature demon beast appearing while I’m away… I don’t think there will be another one appearing in Newnelly in more than 100 years, but considering the cycle, there are several fields in the territory that wouldn’t be out of the question.]

I learned a few other things through experiments and investigations.

It is true that the growth that a demon beast gains by eating several Lords is dramatic, but it is not certain that repeating this process over and over again can replace it with hundreds of years’ worth of growth.

According to the military officers who participated in the experiment, they grow well when they eat the first one, but when they eat the second one, they don’t grow exceptionally stronger as they did the first time. Since there is no standard for the degree of growth of demon beasts, I think it’s a report that can’t be ignored, even though it’s an impression of “somehow” from the site.

If the growth slows down as it becomes tougher, then I think that turtle-shaped mature demon beast that emerged from Newnelly Field is mostly a natural monster.

The demon beast Charybdis appeared 300-odd years ago, and the mature demon beast, one before Charybdis, appeared more than 400 years ago.

Considering the cycle, mature demon beasts emerge from Newnelly Field every 300 to 400 years.

Monsters inside the field kill each other and grow by eating their meat. For this reason, it is generally said that there is only one demon beast that has been raised for hundreds of years on the same field. For strong demon beasts, other strong demon beasts are their worst enemy and at the same time are their best food. Eventually, they will clash and one will be eliminated.

The demon beast Charybdis must have devoured all the notable demon beasts just before it reached maturity.

Simply thinking about it, there is a high possibility that until recently there was a demon beast that continued to grow for over 300 years in Newnelly Field. There must have been a demon beast that had killed each other and devoured its enemies in the Fields, where the previous owner, the demon beast Charybdis had disappeared.

And, most likely, it was the demon beast that ate the Blessed Child whose body had been torn in half, thus achieving its final growth and maturity.

I can’t help but think that it was such a lucky bastard to get ahold of the Blessed Child at a very good timing, but maybe it was aiming for the power of the Highlord hidden in the field all along.

And if that’s the case, I can’t help but understand the intentions of the priests who resorted to the troublesome means of terrorism using demon beasts.

It is possible to easily identify the age with a little research, such as with the appearance of the demon beast Charybdis. Considering the cycle, it’s easy to see that it’s a field where demon beasts may appear within a few decades.

In that case, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to think about jumping on the bandwagon and having it eat a Highlord to hasten the outbreak. …..No, it’s a bad idea from Quordenze’s point of view.

Well, this way of thinking has some aspirations.

It’s possible that the flesh of a Highlord could transform a feeble demon beast into a mature one at once, shortening the 300 or 400 years cycle immensely. Like it or not, in this case, it might lead to the punchline where the natural 300 years old monster is alive somewhere in the Field.

If I’m unlucky, one might mature around the time when I become the Head of Quordenze. It’s the worst.

However, I’d like to think that’s not the case. There are also some reasons.

Demon beasts come in a wide variety of shapes, such as ones that look like real animals and insects, strange ones like sea anemones, chimeras that combine multiple animals and plants, and even trees and flowers.

This is a classification based on appearance, but there is also a classification based on strength type. Some have extremely high combat power, some specialize in land corruption, some specialize in spreading epidemics, some have a lot of stamina and take a long time to die, and some are balanced.

This is not an absolute rule and there are many exceptions, but there is a relationship between appearance and strength type.

For example, mature demon beasts that look like real beasts are known to have high combat power…or rather, mature demon beasts famous for their high combat ability were mostly beast types.

It is said that the mature demon beast that appeared in Evermil City that took my grandmother’s life was a walrus-like demonic beast with hard needle hairs that resembled a porcupine. For a mature demon beast, the damage caused by land corruption was small, but it seems that it was ferocious and had high fighting ability.

I haven’t heard of turtle-shaped monsters having particularly strong combat abilities or strong corruption powers. Among the famous demon beasts in history, there aren’t that many turtle-shaped monsters.

If I were a priest, had an idle Highlord to sacrifice at hand, and were going to engage in terrorism using demon beasts, at least I wouldn’t choose a turtle-shaped demon beast.

After wandering around the field for a while, I think I’ll catch a demon beast that looks like it’s likely to be combat-oriented or pollution-oriented, and feed it with sacrifices.

If the master has enough energy to make up for hundreds of years of growth all at once, it would be fine to deceive the Blessed Child into being eaten by a demon beast by saying something like a religious ceremony. The fact that she didn’t do that probably means that the Highlord’s body doesn’t have that kind of energy.

In addition, even though the upper and lower bodies were torn off, I don’t think a Highlord would be easily eaten by a small demon beast, and I think it would be safer to think that he was eaten by a demon beast with a certain amount of power.

Therefore, the Blessed Child was eaten by a natural 300-year-old demon beast. The current Newnelly Field has been completely cleared. …..Maybe I’m thinking a little too conveniently.

However, when you think about it like this, it’s only natural that the citizens of Newnelly went into a feast after subjugating the demon beasts.

For over 300 years no mature demon beasts have emerged since the demon beast Charybdis. Citizens lived thinking that they might be attacked by mature monsters while they were still alive. However, once it occurs, another hundreds of years later, at least in their own lifetime, no mature demon beasts will emerge from Newnelly Field.

Citizens living now must have felt that they had successfully escaped a disaster.

[Grandfather should still be alive. So even if a mature demon beast emerges, it’ll be fine. Besides, I’m a Noble of Quordenze. If it comes down to it, I’ll fight alongside onii-sama.]

Fanny made a gesture of putting her hand on her chest. But as her older brother, it made me feel very uneasy.

[There may be monsters again in the Royal Capital. Onii-sama, please don’t act reckless anymore.]

[…..Alright.]

A demon beast Yersinia appeared from the field near the Royal Capital.

At this point, it is unknown whether this was a spontaneous occurrence, or whether there was some kind of priestly conspiracy similar to Newnelly Field.

But, my father seems to think that there is also the possibility of terrorism by priests.

However, it’s unlikely that another demon beast will emerge from the capital’s field. There is no record of a mature demon beast appearing before the demon beast Yersinia in the field of the Royal Capital. At least in 1000 years or more. I guess the interval between appearances is quite long.

In general, it would be a problem if such a Yersinia-class demon beast appeared. It is a straight line of human extinction.

[Father also did some preliminary research in advance. It seems that there is no dangerous place in the field near the Royal Capital at this stage. As for travel routes, we will take roads that are far from large-scale fields in various places as much as possible.]

Even if you exclude the super-large-scale Field that is the birthplace of the demon beast Yersinia, there are quite a few Fields around the Royal Capital. However, there seems to be a record of mature monsters appearing relatively recently, which has been subjugated. So it’s hard to imagine them appearing naturally from here.

Besides, according to the records, the demon beasts that appeared in those Fields were ranked third in the threat class, most of them were ranked fourth, and the lowest among matured demon beasts, fifth rank. To be honest, it can’t be said to be a big threat from a Highlord’s point of view.

It is meaningless for the terrorists to prepare in such a half-baked field. If you’re going to do it anyway, you’ll need to be at least second in the threat class, Charybdis-class, or it’ll be a flop.

Well, anyway, there’s nothing I know about when the monster terrorism happened in the Levios territory. There is no obligation to fight, so I could just leave it alone and run away. The one at fault is the Levios family who didn’t take governance seriously.

…..That’s why my biggest worry is the absence program.

I wrapped my arms around Fanny’s back and hugged her a little tighter.

[As expected, I’m more worried about Fanny. If something happens in Newnelly, I won’t be able to protect you…]

This time, my father and I will be attending the Royal Capital’s social gathering, while my mother and Fanny will be staying at home in Newnelly.

It would be cruel to let my grandfather, who is working hard at Reisleaf Castle, deal with all the problems of the mainland. That’s elder abuse.

[Ufu.]

In my embrace, Fanny lets out a sweet sigh.

For a moment, her gesture made my ears numb, but the next moment she was back to her usual spoiled little sister.

Just like a cat stomps a blanket with its front paws to find a place to stay, Fanny puts her hand on my pit.

[…I don’t want to grow up…]

Fanny buried her face in my chest and spoke in a low voice that even the maids around us couldn’t hear.

[I want to stay like this forever in Newnelly, and live with our father, grandfather, mother, and onii-sama….. Hey, onii-sama…]

The plan to impregnate Fanny, which our father approached me about tonight, is a story that has not been made public yet, and of course Fanny does not know about it.

For that reason, I think that Fanny herself is aware in the back of her head that she will be married to another territory someday. She doesn’t often go out of the castle, so I guess she finds it scary and unavoidable to marry into another territory.

From the depths of my heart, a desire to protect my little sister welled up.

Now, what is in my arms is not a superhuman with a strong body, the Highlord, but a little girl who is frightened by an uncertain future.

[Fanny…..]

I hugged her closer and hugged her body even tighter.

The soft body is comfortable, the slight body temperature and the faint scent of the body make the heart gentle.

As I hugged her like this, I could clearly see that Fanny’s body is approaching that of an adult.

She’s already having her first period, so if you think about it by the standards of the Eruo continent, it’s safe to say she’s almost an adult woman.

[It’s the same. If we can live together forever… I think that every day like today should continue forever.]

It’s my sincere feeling.

To live together forever means that Fanny will become my woman. It is the future that is most desirable.

[…Is it okay if I sleep like this…?]

I grunted in confirmation and kissed her forehead.

[I’m not going anywhere.]

I’m not going anywhere, and I won’t let Fanny go anywhere.

Looking at my sister, who began to sleep peacefully, I swore to myself.
