Wasn’t a son better than a daughter as the successor? That didn’t matter to Grid . He just wanted a child that was like Irene . The girl would be bright, kind, and beautiful, unlike him .
‘I am afraid a son will resemble me!’
Typically, a daughter resembled the father and the son resembled the mother, but Grid didn’t believe this . He didn’t think a girl would have his appearance and personality .
[Do you really want a daughter?]
“Yes!”
[Okay . The baby who will be born soon will reflect your will . ]
“Okay!”
From the smithy to the castle . Grid ran through the streets using the shortest path . He wanted to see his child’s face as soon as possible .
***
“You aren’t late . ”
Lauel was waiting for him at the gates .
“It’s been 30 minutes since them midwife entered . Maybe the child will be born soon . Before that, are you really going to name your child Grene? Huh? How about rethinking the name?”
Lauel was sleep deprived, as always . In the game, he was busy managing Reidan, Bairan, and Cork Island, while in reality, he was responding to the endless flood of inquiries about joining the guild . So Lauel’s somewhat tense words were heard as they headed to the 3rd floor .
Cry! Cry!
The cries of a newborn baby was heard from Irene’s bedroom at the end of the hall .
“Congratulations!”
The maid assisting the midwife ran out and shouted . The emotions in Grid’s heart were indescribable . He really became a father! He felt a vague fear, but his joy was much greater .
“Daughter!”
The maid responded with a bright expression .
“Your son!”
Eh?
“What?”
It was an unexpected and shocking answer . Grid received a mental blow . On the other hand, Marquis Steim and his vassals were dancing .
“A precious baby boy was born in our family! A young gentleman, young gentleman!”
“Congratulations Duke Grid and Marquis Steim!”
“I wish you the best!”
“…”
A young gentleman .
‘A son?’
Didn’t it say that his choice would have a large effect on the gender of the child when born, so what was this?
“…Ah!”
Grid belatedly replied .
‘I was originally unlucky . ’
When had anything ever gone as he wanted? There were few occasions . The result always went against him . He had been lucky since becoming Pagma’s Descendant, but before that, he had been so unlucky that he wondered if he had sold a country in his previous life .
Yes, this was the reality .
“Hah . ”
Grid sighed and entered Irene’s bedroom .
***
“Dear husband… It’s a boy who resembles you . I’m so happy . ”
Irene’s complexion was noticeably tired . It was difficult to fathom how painful childbirth would be . But Irene’s smile was brighter than ever . Grid realized something .
‘It might be more influenced by Irene’s wish than my bad luck . ’
Grid was relieved when he saw the baby in Irene’s eyes . What did it matter if it was a daughter or a son? Proof of their precious love had been born . He was glad and happy . In the first place…
‘We can always have another child if I want a daughter . ’
Irene was the only daughter of her family, so she had a strong desire for many children . She wanted to constantly give birth if she could . Grid smiled and kissed Irene’s forehead .
“You must’ve suffered . Thank you . Thank you for giving this gift to me . Above all, I wish for you to be healthy . ”
“Dear husband…”
Irene was always affectionate towards Grid . Irene was thrilled and handed the child to Grid .
“Please hug him . ”
“U-Um . ”
Grid was startled . Didn’t the child have black hair like him? It was concerning . His son, he looked like Grid .
‘Please let his nature be different…’
Grid sincerely wished as Irene handed the child to him . Then his eyes widened .
‘Why is he so pretty?’
Babies who were just born and couldn’t open their eyes reminded him of monkeys . But what was this? The white skin was resilient and the already opened eyes were blue like Irene . They were intense eyes like gemstones .
Grid’s mouth stretched widely as he looked at his son . It was an exquisite combination of himself and Irene, so an infinite affection rose inside him .
“What is the name of our grandchild?”
Marquis Steim asked . His mouth was also stretched widely . He looked even more delighted than Grid .
“The child’s name…”
Everyone’s attention focused on Grid . In particular, Lauel was staring at him with eager eyes .
‘Please don’t let it be Grene!’
Was his wish heard? Grid spoke a normal name for some reason .
“Lord . ”
Don’t be despised like him, be loved and respected by all . Don’t be envious of others like him, but have a wide heart . It was a name filled with these wishes .
‘Lord…!’
It was a good name . It happened when everyone, including Lauel, was feeling happy .
“Maybe I should add my initial preceding it, G-lord . ”
“…!”
Lauel’s expression twisted . He shouted angrily .
“Glord! That is a name that copies the format of an orc chief!”
“Ah . ”
Grid felt relieved of the frustration that filled him for a decade . Glord . It was a name that he came up thanks to all his naming experience .
“Phew, it’s cool . ”
Lauel saw Grid’s expression and shouted again .
“Please just name him Lord!”
“Isn’t that too common?”
“It is better than a name that copies an orc chief!”
He was correct . Glord was a proper noun in Satisfy, so it was right to avoid it . After a moment, Grid nodded .
“Okay, I understand . The name of this child is Lord . ”
At that moment .
[Congratulations on the fruit of the couple’s love!]
[You are the first user to become a father!]
[The title ‘First Father’ has been obtained . ]
[First Father]
* When you are in a party with your child, all of your stats will increase by 8% .
If the child’s health drops below 30%, the passive skill ‘Father’s Instinctive Love’ will be activated, increasing movement speed by 80% for 20 seconds and resetting skill cooldown .
Resetting skill cooldown time! It was truly a huge passive skill . Grid was glad when he suddenly felt doubts .
‘Party?’
Why would he go hunting with his child?
‘Why is it like this?’
Then Lord’s status window floated in front of Grid’s eyes .

“This is completely…”
A gold spoon in Satisfy . Grid was forced to admire it .
Lord Steim . It was the day when the overlord of the world, who would later have the name of the Overgeared clan, was born .
***
“Abu . Abu . ”
It had been a week since Lord was born . Compared to when he was born, the beauty of the child was already shining . He had Grid’s eyes and high nose, the good parts of Grid, as well as Irene’s face, skin, lips, and pupils .
“So pretty . ”
Saintess Ruby arrived in Reidan two days ago . She had wanted to see her nephew’s face . She smiled and didn’t leave Lord’s side . On the other hand, three women were uncomfortable .
Yura, Jishuka, and Sexy Schoolgirl . The women who gathered in one place after a long time were struggling .
“Well, I’ll admit that the baby is pretty . However, the next baby that I’ll give birth to will be better . Think about it . How dignified and sexy would a child born from Grid and I be?”
It was Jishuka who talked with confidence . Sexy Schoolgirl couldn’t believe her ears .
“Oh my~ Jishuka, are you going to marry Grid? Ah, in the game like Irene?”
“Huhut, this young girl is talking nonsense . If I was to marry Grid, it should be in reality . You can play the role of concubine in the game . ”
“Sister, do you not like me? Are you afraid that I will be sexier than you after one or two years? Yes?”
“This kid, shouldn’t you be more self-conscious?”
“Be quiet . I don’t have the emotions of a kid . ”
Yura intervened between the two girls . She was calm in front of Lord, unlike Jishuka and Sexy Schoolgirl .
“Yura, aren’t you worried? Irene and Grid will probably become closer after Lord is born . Our positions will become smaller . ”
Yura spoke to Sexy Schoolgirl in a nonchalant manner, “I am already treated as a folding screen . I don’t need to worry . ”
“…”
In the meantime, Grid was indifferent towards Yura . One of the world’s most beautiful women, Yura, was treated as a folding screen . Jishuka and Sexy Schoolgirl honestly couldn’t believe it . Sehee laughed from where she was playing with Lord with the baby toys that Grid had drawn .
‘It is because Oppa is very shy . ’
Everyone forgot it because Grid was married, but he had no experience with love in reality . In reality, he hadn’t even held hands with a woman . An unrealistically beautiful and talented woman like Yura was too high of a barrier to be his first love . Ah, it might be different if Yura had a big chest like Jishuka .
At the same time .
“It’s really amazing . ”
The soldier Royman reached level 160 under the thorough guidance of Piaro and Asmophel . Grid was thrilled when he confirmed Royman’s information with the Great Lord’s Sword .
At this time, a huge 5,000 troops were entering Reidan’s vast desert .
