Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?

These days I’ve come to think that Madam Elizabeth and Freesia-san being here was normal, and we were relaxing in the garden and having tea while enjoying nature.

Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.

By the way, Madam Lumia was living on Mimir-sama’s mansion. Not that it changes how much the Madams were having tea parties at my house though……

Sophia, Maria, and Marnie’s stomachs were becoming fuller. I had thought that Sophia would be stressed about being restricted from intense movement, but she didn’t looked stressed, perhaps because she was swayed by Freesia-san or had some stress relief.

It was evident that Maria was genuinely happy about becoming a mother. In particular, she was diligently sewing and knitting baby items.

Perhaps because Marnie had the lightest of morning sickness from the three, she was also enjoying this period until the baby is born. Apparently, having minor morning sickness is a species trait of a Beastkin.

As I gazed at the scenery in the garden while drinking my tea, three ladies drinking tea at a table a slight distance away in the same garden came to view.

For some reason, sitting on their knees were the Cat Sith Lala, Catkin Sara, and Human Colette.

「Look now, Lala-chan, you have some on your mouth.」

「This cake is yummy nya!」

「Sara-chan, this cake over here is delicious too.」

「Nya! Lots of cake nya!」

「Sirona-chan, we have juice too.」

「Thank you, Lumia-sama.」

The sight of the adorable little girl squad took hold Madam Elizabeth, Freesia-san, and Madam Lumia’s hearts.

Lala, Sara, and Shirona, who had very little work because they were still to young, often play at my home. It seems they were discovered by the Madams.

There have not been any small children in the Royal Palace of Yggurle Kingdom since Mimir-sama for Madam Lumia. Madam Elizabeth did not have a chance to come into contact with small children after raising Charlotte. Even Freesia-san spoke of how it has been several decades since Darphy had been a small child.

Are the Madams rehearsing how to take care of coming babies?

Then there’s the Cat Sith elder sister Miri, the Human elder sister Colette, and the Elven sisters Melanie and Malorie who were touching Sophia’s, Maria’s, and Marnie’s stomachs.

By the way, Wappa was apparently out playing with friends.

Gradually, boys and girls will gather and play separately. When I look back to when I was a kid, it was definitely awkward mingling with the girls. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

「I’m excited for Sophia-san’s baby. Let me hold it when it’s born, okay?」

「Me too! Me too!」

「Yes, get along with them once they’re born, okay?」

The Elven sisters Melanie and Malorie happily caressed Sophia’s belly.

Even when Melanie and Malorie were in Yggurle Kingdom, there had been no children around them,so they were excited to see a baby of the same race.

「Maria-san, Marnie-san! Please let me hold the baby when they are born please!」

Colette was also a girl so she was curious about babies, so she triedfeeling the belies of Marnie and Maria.

Humans and Beastkin have a high reproduction rate, so it wasn’t rare to see children, no matter the country. However, due to growing up in extreme poverty, Colette and Wappa saw a lot of small children dying from the hunger and cold. That’s why, now that they’re in a safe environment without hunger, exposure to rain and wind, and are being protected by adults, they can genuinely be happy for the birth of a new life. That made them happy above all else.

Well, it’s not like we’re the first ones to have children be born in the Sanctuary, but to these children, we were special.

As I thought that in a carefree manner, Vanga-san and Martha-san paid us a visit.

「Hey Takumi, we wanted to give some rabbit.」

「We also brought some eggs, Takumi-chan. We have to give Sophia-chan and the others strength.」

「Thank you very much.. Vanga-san, Martha-san, please have some tea as well.」

Vanga-san had four rabbits in both hands, and Martha-san was carrying a basket of eggs.

Just as before he immigrated to the Sanctuary, Vanga-san was still a hunter. Martha-san bred chicken-like birds and produced eggs at my request.

The maids took the gifts that Vanga-san and Martha-san had brought with them, and our new guests joined us.

「Still, Takumi-chan will be a father~. It feels almost like my own grandchildren will be born.」

「What, they’re our grandchildren all the same. We’re pretty much Takumi’s parents.」

「Haha, you could say that.」

In fact, Vanga-san and Martha-san had warmly and unconditionally accepted me, who didn’t know right or left, when I first came to this world. It scares me to think what would have happened had these two not been here.

There were many who have ill will towards me, but I’m really blessed to have met good people.
