Chapter 88: The Time of Reunion, Comes IV & V

<The Time of Reunion, Comes IV>

From the window of my room, I could see the fog that had engulfed the plain.

「I have a proposal」

『What is it?』

「About Maria, you\'re opposed to our marriage, right?」

『So I am』

「As can be expected, I don\'t think it\'s a good idea to take a second wife when things between my current wife and me haven\'t settled down yet」

『Question. When you say "second wife", are you referring to Maria?』

「That\'s right」

『Aren’t you going to get a divorce before marrying Maria?』

「I have absolutely no intention of divorcing Rana. Also, I got married under elven laws, which means that I can have multiple wives」

『As a Japanese, are you okay with that?』

「In my country, there is this saying. "When in Rome, do as the Romans do”」

『I understand now that it\'s a very convenient saying. More than ever, I don\'t approve of Maria and you getting married』

「Then, let\'s meet in the middle, and――」

My proposal was accepted.

「Maria, supposing that the number of Tortchs increased, what would you think?」

『I\'d be happy』

「Incidentally, there\'s a case of three fathers raising a child in Tortch\'s country」

『Oh-ho, three Daddies, huh? That would be nice』

It\'s just a movie though. [1]

「Alright, then――」

『………………』

I brought Rana and Maria together again, and introduced them to each other like that.

「Dear, I did say that I want to have a child, but this is……」

「Souya, I agreed to let you be my father, but I didn\'t hear anything about her becoming my mother」

「Umm, Maria, she\'s my wife, so she\'s automatically your mother, isn’t it?」

「Dear, I\'m not following any of this at all」

「I\'ll explain it to you, booby elf. I\'m Souya\'s wife, and also his daughter」

The thing about being my wife……

It didn\'t get canceled out, I see.

「I\'m Souya\'s wife. So that makes you the second wife」

Oh, so Rana is going to accept it without issue.

Right, that\'s the culture she grew up with, isn’t it? That damned Melm also has a lot of wives, doesn\'t he?

「Second wife, and my daughter. Eh? Huh?」

Because she had accepted it so easily, it appears that she has gotten confused.

「Rana, the one who brought up Maria is from the same world as me. In light of that, I agreed to look after her. As you can see, she\'s just a child. Take no notice of what she says about marriage and so on」

「Who’s a child?!」

Maria got angry and kicked me. It didn\'t really hurt much.

Getting angry at being called a child is proof of being a child. I\'ve told someone that before, I believe.

「If it\'s a request from someone from your hometown, then I guess there\'s no helping it. ………Umm, Maria, I\'m your mother from now on, alright?」

Rana smiled awkwardly and spread her arms wide open.

「………………」

After staring at Rana in silence, Maria couldn\'t resist her urges and leapt into her bosom.

「Habuaa」

She had the same response as I did, and was sunk instantly.

There aren\'t many people who can resist Rana\'s boobs. No matter how crazed she is, Maria is still a child.

Afterwards, I watched as the two of them got to know each other better. We had a relaxing time together.

It had been hectic the past few days, but things had finally calmed down.

<The Time of Reunion, Comes V>

It was sunny, which took the edge off the chill a little, making it the perfect weather for war.

1,000 cavalry from Robbs\' army had gathered in response to His Majesty\'s call.

For Ashtalia,

To stand shoulder to shoulder with the hero,

To defeat their age-old invaders,

To crush the shameless Myriad Kings.

His Majesty looked at their faces one by one and spoke passionately about how foolish the enemy was and how powerful Robbs\' soldiers were.

The rousing speech was soul-stirring.

And then,

His Majesty spoke of his late daughter.

It was a story about a child who wished for peace.

It was the story of a girl who, in order to bridge the divide between Elysium and the Myriad Kings, had planned for the future. It was about a king\'s daughter who was crushed by a conspiracy, was prepared for death despite her young age and innocence, and what the pigs of Elysium did to her.

The word "foolishness" couldn’t do justice to that tragedy.

Some of the soldiers wept.

But those tears quickly turned to anger.

The enemy who had perpetrated that folly was right in front of them. They would shed their tears only after they had spilled the enemy\'s blood.

The fog cleared.

The army of 70,000 was in disarray.

For three days and three nights, they had been trapped in that white darkness. They looked exhausted, and there were signs that they had fought among themselves. Two of the massive catapults had toppled over, crushing people underneath them. Many of the enemy\'s horses began to neigh in panic at the sudden change in scenery.

His Majesty bellowed.

Robbs\' cavalry bellowed with him.

Leading the 1,000 strong cavalry, the hero charged into the army of 70,000.

Like a gigantic lance.

Like a magical lance that no one could stop.

「Hmm, he\'s not leaving any for me, is he?」

Said Dugan, who was next to me.

Rana, Maria and I were on standby in the rear, inside Robbs\' camp.

「Yeah, he’s not」

I nodded, but stayed alert for beasts and had Maria be ready to teleport me at any moment.

「Lower the alert level, and prepare food and baths」

Dugan\'s orders were carried out by his trusted vassals. I thought that he was being too hasty, but that turned out to not be the case.

At the cost of a hundred men, His Majesty defeated an army of 70,000.

The enemy\'s casualties exceeded 40,000, and two of the Myriad Kings who had sided with Elysium were killed.

[1] I’m writing this because it’s an old movie, so there’s a real chance that many readers don’t know it, but it’s a great classic comedy. The movie referenced here is most likely “Three Men and A Baby” starring Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg and Ted Danson. It follows the mishaps and adventures of three bachelors as they attempt to adapt their lives to pseudo-fatherhood with the arrival of the love child of one of them. It was the biggest American box office hit of 1987, and eventually grossed $167 million in the United States and Canada, and $240 million worldwide. Of course, it could also be referring to its 1990 sequel, “Three Men and A Little Lady”.

Yeah, probably the shortest double chapter ever lol.

Only thing I’ll point out, is that he doesn’t feel pain when kicked by Maria. Him, the super-weakling, didn’t think that it hurt after being kicked by an inhabitant of this world, who are mad strong compared to the people of his world… Didn’t the invisibility, which needed magic power to activate, last longer than he had though it would last chapter as well? ˉ_(ツ)_/ˉ

With that, it’s a rousing end to this arc. What’s next, or rather, what’s left? Stay tuned for the final arc!

With that, I\'m hoping to gain some support to help with the above so that I can expand and increase the amount of my releases. So if you can\'t help out with translating, I\'d really appreciate it if you would consider supporting me on Patreon. Thank you so very much in advance!
