Chapter 71: Just another day

“Are you okay? Do you need anything? Dear, do you feel anything amiss?”

Mina bombarded Colt with questions that Colt responded with a smile. Today was a rather nice day for Colt, staying inside the mansion and not going to the academy using the pretense of being injured was the life.

As such, he is currently being babied by the person who always showers him with love, and as Mina asked Colt the question whether he is comfortable or not, of course, the answer is resounding, “Yes, I’m fine. This is actually too comfortable for me. Thank you…dear.”

That simple word was enough for Mina’s heart to skip a beat. Being called dear by her beloved almost made her heart stop, it was too much for her but she’s not going to ask him to stop.

Colt had been getting better at approaching Mina’s mentality and as a reward and thanks for taking care of him when he was in a coma, Colt decided to start calling her “Dear” as a sign of thanks and a reflection of his own affection towards her.

Mina had been taking care of Colt both day and night without missing a day when he was in a coma. She even dragged out her master who was infamous for avoiding getting out of the Magic Tower in order to reattach Colt’s arms.

Mina wanted to do it herself, but she’s not much of a healer and she’s only a Sixth Circle Mage making her incapable of reattaching bones. It was said that when the Grandmaster of the Magic Tower arrived, she was crying after what Mina did to her.

As for what Mina did, no one would ever know…

‘I really want to know what she did, but I think it’s best not to ask. It’s best to do what I’ve been doing.’

At the moment he was being lazy, he was being cared for and he does not need to act, in short, it was heaven. Lying on Mina’s soft lap while the two of them rested underneath the shade of a tree while awaiting the spring breeze blow almost made Colt melt.

‘Not doing anything and not having to deal with the bane of the strongest men (pollen) is the best. So, this is the life of not having allergies.’

If Colt opens his mouth, Mina would give him a spoonful of soft and jiggly pudding. Yes, the world has pudding and it made Colt almost unable to muster speech. And in this environment where he is being the laziest, it truly was pretty good.

“Darling, do you want some more?”

Colt nodded his head like an obedient dog as he opened his mouth and awaited the blessings of Heaven (Mina). Colt savored in the soft and jiggly texture of the pudding. He’s not a fan of sweet things, but the texture of the pudding was something he adores.

This pudding virtually had no sugar so Colt was pretty ecstatic about eating it.

“Darling, are you sure about going back to the Edgeworth Fief tomorrow? You are still recovering after all.”

Colt looked at Mina’s worried face and smiled to ease her worries, “If we do that the whole family will come here instead, I heard from Butler Go that Father was thinking of bringing the army with him. Also, the guy we captured was already sent back home while I was asleep, I want to question him too.”

“Is that all?”

“…And Filla’s birthday is coming up, I don’t want to break my promise with her. I need to go back home because of that. Also, didn’t you say you have been feeling more fatigue recently? Don’t you think it is time for you to take a vacation? With the Marquis heading West to investigate so I think it’s time for us to rest for the time being.”

Mina nodded her head at Colt’s words. She smiled and then resumed to feeding Colt.

“It appears that you two are enjoying yourselves.”

“Oh, Vyra, out for some fresh air?” Mina saw her friend and called out to her with glee.

While the couple was having the time of their lives resting without a care for the world, Vyra walked towards them with a smile. With her was Sera who nodded her head in acknowledgment of Colt’s presence.

Colt attempted to get up from Mina’s lap only to have his head dragged back down. When he tried saying something, he saw Mina’s eyes and decided not to go against it.

In the end, he had to speak while lying down, “It appears that Jin is not with you?”

“Yes, he’s cooped inside his laboratory saying he’s about to perfect his medicine, and these days I can’t exactly join him inside that place where chemicals abound.”

“Don’t hold it against him, after all, a breakthrough like this does not come so easily. Also, his worry is warranted as your bump is now more visible than ever. Your dear husband is merely being careful.” Colt stated.

“I know.” Vyra sat on the ground while supporting her belly and Sera on her side making sure nothing goes wrong.

It had only been four months since Vyra got pregnant, but her bump was already so big. She is being extra careful because of this and add to the fact that an Elf pregnancy is much more delicate than any other race made Vyra approach anything she does very carefully.

Currently, she is very happy and all of this was possible because of the kind Young Master Colt. Though she can’t do it at the moment, Vyra would do anything she can in order to repay his kindness.

Colt did not know that a seed had been planted on Vyra’s heart but it didn’t matter for that seed is a seed of gratefulness. If in the original plot the seed planted in her heart was hate and regret making her grow crazy, it was different now.

With the arrival of Vyra, Mina became very talkative asking her many questions about pregnancy and would occasionally shoot Colt signaling glances while holding her belly.

Colt would smile when he picks up on this side glances but say nothing. With the passage of time, it was finally time for lunch. Mina and Vyra stood up leaving Colt behind to finish his food and Sera so she can watch over Colt.

Vyra and Mina walked inside the mansion. Mina was going to cook some food and Vyra wished to accompany her in order to learn her techniques and recipe. She too aspires to become a capable housewife just like her sworn friend.

However, upon entering the mansion, Mina suddenly felt nauseous. Leaning against the wall as she felt really nauseous.

{Vyra supported her while asking worriedly, “Are you okay!?”

Mina wanted to say something back to Vyra but then she began to run while holding her mouth. Vyra quickly followed Mina as fast as she could. Vyra found Mina in the bathroom where Mina was vomiting.

Vyra saw this and her brows raised as she said with high anticipation, “Mina, could it be that you’re…pregnant?”
