Chapter 8

The Truth about the Little Sapling

Dorothea is sitting on the bed in her room and staring at the ceiling.

She had just given Nicks a guided tour of the castle, but her heart is still racing.

Did I do well? Do you hate me?

Thinking that way sometimes embarrasses her.

Remembering the little mistakes she made, she regrets them. When she was thinking of various things, there was a knock on the door and she was startled.

- Y-Yes?

- Sister, it's me, Deirdre.

- It's open.

She corrected her posture and allowed Deirdre to enter the room as if nothing had happened.

Deirdre entered the room with a big smile.

- I have good news, sister. The official talks for the engagement are proceeding forward.

- E-Eh!?

Deirdre walked over to Dorothea, who made a strange voice when she found out she was engaged, and took her hand.

- There are still some formalities to be done, but there is no doubt that the commitment has been completed.

- What? Um, did Nicks say something?

There was no discussion about the engagement when she guided him through the castle.

Therefore, she assumed that she had failed.

Hence, she was shocked when he heard that their engagement had been completed.

Deirdre congratulated Dorothea.

- I haven't heard from him yet. In that case, why don't you try to find out for yourself. …

Also, congratulations.

- T-Thank you.

- Anyway, I see that my sister is getting married? I thought you wouldn't marry anyone if you screwed up. So, what are you going to do with the collar? He doesn't like the collar very much, so I don't recommend it.

- It's okay.

- Oh?

Deirdre seems to be concerned about Dorothea's change of mind, which struck her as a surprising reaction.

Then Deirdre asked her why she wouldn't be needing the collar.

- I realized that I can be connected to him even if we have no such thing.

Deirdre shrugged.

- Are you talking about love?

- I guess you could say that.

If there is a stronger connection than chains ...

Dorothea didn't give a clear answer, but she had been thinking of wanting to have a stronger connection than the chains.

"You betrayed me, you fucking bastard!"

On the Einhorn deck, Nicks is clutching my chest.

- You looked happy when you were alone together! Everyone said you were definitely in love!

Angie and the others said so, so there shouldn’t be any doubts.

From my point of view, they seemed to get along very well that it was so frustrating for me.

However, it seems like Nicks couldn't forgive everyone for watching them.

- Everyone!? Have you all been watching me!? There is a limit to doing things in bad taste!

- I was worrying about my brother. But it seemed like you were enjoying it.

It's fun to see him in trouble, but the sad thing is that I must see the two of them having fun?

- Why do you have such a narrow heart despite being more blessed!?

- Because I have a big heart, I gave my brother a push to get married! I want you to praise me for giving it my all to resist getting in your way.

If I was really jealous, I wouldn't give him a shove.

I wanted Nicks to be happy so I moved to join them even though that didn't suit me.

And yet, it is surprising when he said that my heart is narrow.

[You two have come to see us off.]

Nicks released me and tensed in front of the person who appeared.

His face is red and he is conscious of her no matter how I looked at it. The other person is also the same.

Dorothea seemed flustered too and looked down as she approached Nicks.

- Nicks. E-Em, I will definitely come visit you in the near future.

- Y-Yes. W-We will be waiting for you.

They both choked on their words.

After finishing her talk, Dorothea left but looked back many times and said goodbye to Nicks.

Deirdre-senpai, who also came to say goodbye, looked at the situation with a smile.

- He's really innocent. I'm ashamed just seeing them.

- You complained about everything, but now you get nervous in front of her.

I cursed Nicks, but Luxion, who is next to me, is moving his eye from side to side and showed a dismayed appearance.

[You are more troublesome than your brother, Master.]

- That is not true.

[So why don't you ask Angelica and the others? Angelica, tell us your impressions.]

Angie, called by Luxion, looked at me and crossed her arms.

- Leon was more troublesome. He didn’t make it clear until the very end. If it hadn't been for the surprise engagement ceremony, he would have fled for life.

- I-I don't think that's true.

While making a weak denial, Angie said "I wonder if I am wrong?" And looked at Livia.

[Then please tell us your opinion, Livia.]

Livia spoke while choosing her words carefully.

- That's how it is. Regardless of whether he is romantically inept or not, wasn’t Leon's more troublesome? In the end, we are the ones who had to confess. Although I do not regret that we worked up the courage to confess.

I couldn't say anything about that.

If I think about it, I was probably worse than Nicks.

[The Master is too proud of his past to have forgotten how pathetic he was. Noelle, do you have an opinion on this?]

Noelle, who was named in the conversation, looked me in the eye.

- I do, but what if he apologizes to Nicks first?

All eyes were on Nicks, but he kept looking at Dorothea and waving his hand.

…… I don't know why Nicks insists that he is not in love with her. Deirdre-senpai showed a satisfied face with "Oh dear".

- Then I'll go too.

When Deirdre-senpai got off the ship, Jenna, who was watching the enamored Nicks, shrugged her shoulders and let out a big sigh.

- I can't believe that he’d be so captivated.

Finley, who is also looking at Nicks, shook her head sheepishly.

- I think that fever of his will go down soon.

While Jenna agreed with Finley's opinion, the two are excited about Nicks' future.

- You think so too? This seems like the heat of a moment, but anyway, the enchantment will soon peel off and he will look at her like before.

- You can't hide your true nature forever, right? I think my older brother will be dominated in a few months.

- When it comes to getting married, I hear that the other person's harshness suddenly stands out, in this case shouldn't it be faster?

Nicks looked back and yelled at the two who were talking about him without dreams or hope.

- Can't you guys speak a little more positively?!

- It is a realistic and reliable story, right? If you prepare from now on, Nicks, you won't get hurt. Be grateful to us.

Jenna's down-to-earth talk has left me and Nicks speechless.

It is for that reason that I made a guilty comment to the desperate Jenna and Finley.

- If they are girls, it is more beautiful for them to dream more.

In response to my opinion, they looked at each other and laughed out loud.

- What's happening?

Jenna and Finley giggled as they tried to cover her mouth with their hands.

- I just thought that you, who have a more concerning future than Nicks, should look more at reality.

- I think you better worry about yourself, brother. Their attitudes and facial expressions were annoying.

As my sisters and I made a fuss, my father and mother put their hands on their hips and let out a deep breath.

Spring break was nearing its end.

Before returning to the academy, there was a problem that had to be dealt with.

That was ... looking for a place to plant the little sapling.

[Based on Yumeria's request, we selected a floating island to plant the little Sacred Tree.]

It was a rugged floating island that was taken over by Luxion.

As far as you could see, the ground is rocky and sandy, and it didn't seem very suitable for planting any plants.

- Are you sure this is the right place? Isn't that unsuitable terrain in some way?

We reached the newly discovered floating island at Einhorn early in the morning. Rubbing my sleepy eyes, I yawned absently.

The sky is still dark.

- Is it necessary to come at this time?

[He complains a lot, doesn't he? Given our plans for today, this is the best time.]

According to Luxion's plan, if we plant the little sapling right now, we will be able to complete our plans for today without any problems.

In this place is also Yumeria, who is pushing Noelle's wheelchair.


Noelle put the little offspring on her lap.

She looked around her and was just as anxious as I was.

- Are we really going to plant it here? It will be a big problem if it dries up.

It was Yumeria who showed confidence and encouraged Noelle, who was worried.

She is a very confident woman, and the fact that she has a large chest makes her seem even more confident.

My drowsiness was dispersed in an instant, and when my eyes turned to her, Angie, who is standing next to me, tapped me to the side lightly with her elbow.

- Ouch.

- Control yourself. The only thing you are allowed to see is our breasts.

- C-Can I see them?

- It's okay.

I wasn't awake yet, so I ate Angie's suggestion.

However, when they told me it was okay to look at them, I couldn't help it.

I get excited when I am ashamed, on the contrary, when I get daring, I react worried.

- I'll refrain from doing it in the morning.

- Wouldn’t you be abstaining even when its night?

When the conversation with Angie ended, I turned my gaze to Yumeria.

Yumeria is digging the area where the little sapling would be planted with a hoe. The ground is hard.

From a hobbyist's point of view, it didn't seem suitable for planting any plants. After all, there is no water nearby.

Livia worriedly asked me something.

- Is it really, okay? I don't think it will grow up here.

- I also think so. Luxion, are you sure about this?

I thought that there is an obvious problem and asked him. Luxion gave a surprising answer.

[My judgment is the same as Yumeria's.]

- Huh?

[A Sacred Tree will grow no matter where it is planted. Have you forgotten? A Sacred Tree is a plant that grows by absorbing demon power --- magical ... Water and soil are important, but as long as it has magical power, it will grow.]

According to Luxion, you only need to have a minimal amount of water and soil.

- The little sapling is amazing.

[It is a very stubborn plant.]

- There are better ways to say it.

As we talked, Yumeria had finished all of the preparations. When I got Noelle's little sapling, I planted it.

Yumeria's large breasts jerked every time she moved.

When I looked away for a moment, Cordelia, who is behind Angie, cleared her throat to restrain me.

-. . . Marquis, your gaze is too obvious.

- Do you have something against men? It is an unconscious reaction. There is nothing I can do to control it.

Livia put her hand to her cheek and showed a concerned face as I gave a pathetic excuse.

- Boys are like that, right? It’s always breasts and buttocks.

[Master especially shows great importance to women's breasts.]

- Hey!

[Are you actually embarrassed that they know? There is no problem. People already know that your eyes are always fixed on breasts, Master.]

- Huh?

When I looked around at the faces of the people in this place, they all nodded.

[Master's line of sight is obvious. Being true to your libido may be fine for a living being, but remember to be modest as a human being. I understand that you like women with large breasts, but it's embarrassing, so please stop.]

- Why do I have to be lectured by you?

This artificial intelligence exposes his master's propensity naturally!?

Hide it more!

- Its ready!

When Yumeria, who is stained with earth, screamed to inform us, the little sapling is planted in the devastated earth.

Even looking at it like this, I am worried because it didn't seem like it could grow here.

- Don't you have to give it water or nutrients?

- This boy is a strong boy, so he will be fine.

- Strong boy?

Yumeria put down her tools and leaned toward the little sapling.

- He is a strong boy who has endured difficult conditions all his life. In an environment where there is almost no nutrition, it was kept as a sapling and survived the entire time while stunting its growth.

Yumeria's story was as if she had been with the little sapling all her life.

- How do you know all that?

- Hmm, I feel like I can hear its voice? In truth, this child should be growing much larger.

Luxion, who heard her, approached the little sapling.

[It's an amazing plant, isn't it?]

Yumeria stood up, put her hands on her hips and said something unthinkable.

- That's why we'll let it grow up here!

Noelle tilted her head when she heard that.

- Does it mean that it will grow rapidly from now on?

- No. I'm going to get him back to his real form now.

- Can you do that!?

We were surprised.

However, Yumeria is one of the elves who can use special magic.

When it comes to plants, Yumeria is a true expert.

- Please leave it to me. Here I go ~

After saying that, Yumeria started dancing around the little offspring.

The dance was a kind of comedic move.

- What is that dance?

When I asked her, Yumeria answered while dancing.

- It's a dance I made myself. I gave it a lot of thought on how I could return it to its original shape. Strong child raise, grow bigger and bigger! Strong child raise, grow bigger and bigger!

She was dancing to a loud child rearing call.

The movement is quite violent, and her large breasts swayed loudly.

- Oouh! E-Eeh!?

When I inadvertently yelled out of being fascinated, my view became obstructed and turned completely black.

What I could hear was Luxion's voice.

[You never learn, do you?]

"Y-You guys, it's not what you think!" As an employer, I just checked how my employee worked!

 

My view had been blocked by Angie and Livia, who are standing on either side of me. Two people are blocking my view from both sides with their hands.

I made an excuse through my secret intentions of how I would have liked to keep seeing Yumeria dancing a little longer.

However, the two of them did not allow it.

Livia whispered in my ear.

- Don't worry, we will see it for you.

I could also hear Angie's voice from the other side. I got a little excited when he sighed in my ear.

- Yumeria is working hard. You don't have to worry about anything, Leon. For some reason, their soft but somewhat bright voices are a bit scary. It seems like they are a bit angry.

-. . . Are you both angry? Did I make you mad?

Suddenly they are shocked and let me go when I was anxious.

For some reason, I felt a dazzling light and closed my lids tightly.

Immediately the strong light disappeared and I was able to open my eyes, but there I can see a small, already grown sapling.

No, it is not a small sapling.

It is already the size of a young tree.

The tree length is a little taller than my height.

- How has it grown so much in such a short time?

The young tree, whose bright green leaves are shaken by the wind, has the same leaf shape as the little sapling.

When I was amazed at how she transformed the sapling in such a short time, Yumeria smiled and wiped her sweat from dancing.

- This is the original appearance of this child.

When I was surprised, Noelle reached out by herself in her wheelchair and touched the little sapling --- even though it is already a young tree… she touched the sacred tree.

When Noelle touched it with her right hand, the emblem on the back of her hand lit up pale green.

I also felt my right hand get warm, and when I checked it, the emblem had appeared.

Noelle, who touched the Sacred Tree, smiled and began to shed tears.

- Yumeria was right. This boy is much stronger than I previously thought. I see, there was no need to worry.

Will it grow up in such a wasteland? I was that worried, but apparently it will grow without problems.

You could feel the strength of the Sacred Tree.

I walked over to Noelle and put my hand on her back. She was crying for a while, probably because she remembered her hometown.

It seems that she still felt lonely having left the republic.

So, Noelle made an oath to the Holy Tree.

- I also have to be strong. I will protect you this time.

Noelle is one of the survivors of the Lespinasse family who once betrayed the Sacred Tree.

Noelle is determined to protect the Sacred Tree this time ... to guide it properly.

Yumeria quickly comforted Noelle.

- This boy is strong and kind, and I'm sure you can convey your feelings to him. So, um ...

don't cry.

- . . . . Yes.

Noelle wiped away her tears, but they never stopped.
