Chapter 17

I didn’t stay with Ling Yue for too long . She had just gotten pregnant, but Lucia and Nier were going to give birth soon . Mommy Elizabeth should’ve arrived . This return trip was to welcome her . We needed to hold a banquet, too . Honestly, I was a little afraid of banquets, since, I was getting it on with Mommy Vyvyan an hour before the last banquet . However, Mommy Elizabeth shouldn’t have been an issue .



She wouldn’t do that to me . Elves and humans had different ethics, after all . Elizabeth considered herself my biological mother . There was no way she’d do that to me . I was very grateful Mommy Elizabeth came over . I knew she was truly busy and was an Empress, yet she travelled a long distance to look after Nier . I was very touched by that . I originally made preparations in case she didn’t come, but she came in the end .

Though I didn’t feel as though she could help, Nier would feel reassured with her around . At least, Nier wouldn’t be frantic . Nier wholeheartedly trusted Mommy Elizabeth . Nier wouldn’t freak out as long as Mommy Elizabeth was around . Further, Mommy Elizabeth must’ve wanted to witness the birth of her grandchild .

Mommy Elizabeth’s biggest regret was not being able to watch me grow up . She was definitely going to be able to watch her grandchild’s growth, however . That being said, I knew it was impossible for her to stay in the North forever . I wanted her to stay, as well . I just didn’t know how to ensure that Hilles City could operate without her physical presence . I think that the only way was for me to return to Hilles City to replace her . But if I did that, what would I do about the North?

There were also the elves to consider . Though there was no issue over there at current, they needed somebody to manage the place . Mommy Vyvyan said she didn’t want to go back, but she’d have to return once something happened . I had to find a place that could manage all three locations .



I had an idea . Troy City . The city named after me sat at the border of the human and elven territories with a path leading to the North . The path was initially used to mobilise the army to the North . The path crossed through the elven lands and was still there, so there was no problem .

Though it took longer to reach the North compared to travelling to humanity and elven lands, Freya would be there, so that was fine . The most important thing was whether humans and elves could accept it .

‘I’ll return to Troy City . I’ll entrust Freya with the North, while I bring my moms, wives and children back to Troy City to live . ’

‘The North will be my territory . I would probably work in the North, while Troy City will be reserved for taking care of my wives and moms . With the two rulers there, they’re not too far away from their nation . It’d only take a day each way . Furthermore, humanity and elves are both aware that their rulers are right by their sides, instead of thinking they’ve gone North . ’

‘After all, the North is a land far away to both races . It’ll feel akin to a monarch far up in the heavens . As long as the two monarchs remain, they should all stay reserved . Two monarchs standing together would act as a deterrence . Based on what I’ve been through since coming here with the Earth Dragons to the church later on, elves and humans have continued with their conflict under the table . The two monarchs living together should be a straight-forward indication that elves and humans do not intend to fight . ’



That would give those schemers a vacation . Plus, since neither of my moms mentioned the topic, the elven and human military alliance still remained . The alliance should’ve disbanded after I captured the North, but the North belonged to me and, in reality, I belonged to neither side . Additionally, neither monarch had plans to end the alliance . Thus, both sides maintained the military alliance .


I wanted to have both of my moms by my side . Mommy Vyvyan raised me, while Mommy Elizabeth gave birth to me the first time . To me, though, they were both my moms who I loved . I couldn’t abandon either of them . They started a war a decade ago for me, but I wouldn’t let them fight over anything in the future, for I’d always remain by their sides .

We mounted our horses and left immediately after I gave Ling Yue a kiss . Freya sat on my lap again . Freya could actually ride a horse . She just finally became a sister who knew how to act spoilt . She was particularly clingy when I was around . I just felt that Tanya hadn’t had much rest on the trip, since she had been in a very sour mood . Ling Yue, who was an anthropoid, was with me and then Freya was, too . I was afraid she’d turn to the dark side and cut Freya down .

Freya… not so bad . Tanya… If she got mad and turned to the dark side, then she might creep up on Freya in the middle of the night to cut her up . I didn’t think Gerald could defeat her… I take that back . There was no way he could beat her . Tanya was able to behead a warrior as tough Marvel with a single slash, so I didn’t think she’d even need a blade to butcher Gerald .

=================

Current time at the Imperial Palace in the North .

“Nier, let me see you . Let me see you . ”

Elizabeth walked into the palace without removing her cape first or paying any heed to the servants who approached her . She walked up to Nier, who came to welcome her . Nier looked at Elizabeth and reactively went down on one knee . Elizabeth swiftly reached her hand out to stop her . She pulled her eyebrows together:  “What are you thinking? What are you trying to do, Nier? You’re pregnant right now . You’re pregnant with my grandchild right now . What are you trying to do?”

“Your Majesty… I…”

“You don’t need to salute me . You don’t need to salute me . You need to look after yourself now . Don’t let anything happen to you . ”

Elizabeth removed her leather gloves then tossed them aside . She crouched down with a smile and gently stroked Nier’s stomach . The people around had never actually seen Elizabeth . Seeing Elizabeth smile, they had no idea what to do . Elizabeth softly said, “My grandchild, my grandchild . my grandchild . My son’s child, my son’s child . I’m so glad . I’m so glad . ”

She finally stood up after a long time passed . She gave Nier a kiss on her face . Nier was surprised by the gesture . She was so excited that she didn’t know what to do . Elizabeth turned around . She removed her cape and tossed it aside . A servant quickly picked her cape up in a flustered fashion . Elizabeth gave him a cold look: “If you were at Hilles City, your head would be rolling on the ground right now . However, you’re my son’s servant, so I shall forgive you for your foolishness . ”

“Y-Yes, Your Majesty…”

“All right . You can all leave . I heard Queen Vyvyan is here, too . I’m going to pay my old friend a visit now . You don’t need to follow me . Look after Nier, instead . I can’t order someone to kill you if something happens to her, but I can personally dig your brain out!”
