Isekai de Kojiin wo Hiraitakedo, Nazeka Darehitori Sudatou to Shinai Ken (WN)-Chapter 16: Young bride. Second Part

“Masatsugu-sama, did you finish your dinner because next is ear cleaning time? Now, come here and place your head here please.”

She said that while tapping her lap.

In otherwords it’s the so called lap pillow. (TN: Sleeping with one’s head on someone’s lap)

“Ehm, won’t it be bad if I put my head there?”

Isn’t that something you should do with the man you like?

But Erin is

“It won’t be bad at all! Rather, I will not give lap pillow to anyone other than Masatsugu-sama.” ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

Replying with a strong tone.

Sigh, well she’s still a child after all. I’m happy to be admired but that’s her impression as a child.

I thought about it and in the end I let her to give me a lap pillow.

“How is it? It’s perfectly soft, right? You can’t smell anything weird, right? I got checked 5 times from the others. Just for the sake of this time I went into the bath 10 times and cleaned my body carefully.”

“You didn’t need to go that far…”

Are you not getting psyched up too much?

But, Erin was shaking her head furiously

“Quite opposite, it’s not enough so that I can offer lap pillow to Master! Besides how is it? Do you have any discomfort?”

She asked me with a worrisome face.

“No, I don’t have any.”

I replied simple and she exhaled and began smiling. The previous cloudy face completely changed and became clear as if it went complete transfiguration.

Sigh, you are making a huge thing out of just ear cleaning.

“Then let’s begin the ear cleaning!”

She was ear cleaning me while delightfully smiling.

Infact, her ear cleaning is good.

While I was drowning in relief Shii came.

“That must be nice the two of you looking like wives. Shii also wants to do it!”

Shii clinged to me when the ear cleaning finished.

“Rather isn’t it enough?”

She’s somewhat real.

But when I said that Shii made a face like she was about to cry

“Eeh!? Uu~ That can’t be~ Shii also wants to be Masatsugu-san’s wife~. *Sniffling*”

She said that disappointedly and began crying.

“You don’t have to be disappointed so much. I understand, okay. Well, just for a bit then?”

When I said that she immediately smiled.

“Ehehe~”

She let out a huge smile.

Sigh, why do they want to play the role of wife.

“Well then, it will be the scene where Shii is with a child.”

… Ha!?

“Ehm, Shii… Isn’t it better to select a another scene instead?”

I pointed it out calmly.

But…

“Eeh, Shii is fine with this one. Together we’ll think up a name for the child~.”

Different from usual she was being quite stubborn on this matter. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

Why at this time you are being so unyielding…

Usually she listens to what I say.

“Well, it’s fine…”

After all it’s playing house. I reluctantly do it.

Once she hears my words.

“Really~!? Hooray! Ehehe~”

She sprouted a happy smile.

“Ehm, Shii was thinking that if it’s male his name will be Ren and if it’s female it will be Leila. Wh~at about it Masatsugu-san?”

I was listening to her while she was slowly rubbing her stomach.

Somehow that gesture looked a bit too real.

It’s just playing house!

“Well, aren’t they fine? You picked quite cute names.”

When I said that she delightfully rubbed her stomach.

Why am I sensing motherhood feelings coming from her?

“Really~? I’m glad, I wish it would be born fast. It’s our child~”

While she was saying that she rubbed her abdomen in a trance.

Is this truly acting? It’s the point of an master.

“Hey, hey, Masatsugu-san try touching aswell~”

She took my hand and guided it to her abdomen.

“This is the fruit of Masatsugu-san’s love.”

“Yeah…”

“Hey, I hope for around 10 children. That leaves 9 more. I’ve thought all of their names, you know? If it’s boys then Noah, Koeln, Jack, Luke, Dira, Levie, Julian, Alek, Henri. If it’s girls then Angela, Sierra, Layne, Therese, Monika, Noelle, Anii, Sophie, Julia, you know~?”

“You did well finding names.”

“I’ve thinking about them every day.”

“Is that so…? That’s it, let’s put an end to the playing house shall we?”

Instinctively feeling that something was off I declared an end to the playing house.

I heard Eeh, Let’s play more but I ignored them and refused it immediately.

Something was being gathered every day at the outer moat of the castle, but surely that was just my imagination.

I kept as usual without thinking about it much.
