Maybe because they were such close friends, the Village Chief and Tom spent the time reminiscing and badmouthing my father to their hearts' content.
'In a way, I'm jealous.'
My father had passed without leaving a family behind, but he still had friends who missed him.
I wondered if I could make friends like that someday, but for now, I decided to focus on my family first.
"This seed awakens from dormancy?"
"Isn't it amazing?"
Elsia was exchanging information with Nabira, the Village Chief's daughter-in-law, appraising the item Nabira had brought.
"And what's this?"
"A flowerless rose that grows wild in the east."
"A flowerless rose?"
"I bought it because it was introduced as a rare item called the Hundred Flower that blooms once every hundred years, but it looks like I got scammed."
"Would you sell it to me?"
"I'll just give it to you. It's more trouble than it's worth anyway."
"You sure?"
"Yes. I brought it thinking someone in this household might make it bloom. If it's too much, just show it to me if you get it to flower."
"Got it. I'll do my best to find a way."
The home of the Village Chief, the village's greatest self-made man, seemed full of rare items not commonly seen in Lugeron Village.
"Ravi! Show me that! That one!"
"Lady Clia? You mean that one?"
"The story about the gods you told before!"
The three nymphs were entertaining the children.
They looked just like innocent young girls on the outside.
'Though those three are boys.'
Maybe because she saw them as her peers, Clia was always eager to see the nymphs' mystical talents.
"If you insist, I'll tell you about the gods' trials that I didn't get to before."
"Gods' trials?"
"The twelve gods who watch over humanity occasionally impose trials on their followers."
"Aren't trials hard?"
"Exactly. Trials are ordeals and hardships. Most humans who receive them don't meet good ends."
"Ugh, the gods are mean."
"Even so, humans grow through trials. They mature and come to understand the gods' will. The story of Iyov I'm about to tell shows how a human gains enlightenment through a god's trial."
Ravi was an excellent storyteller.
He captivated the children's attention as he shared myths and explained their meanings.
He'd make a great teacher.
"Oh? Is Ciel sleepy, Lady Ciel?"
"Yaaawn..."
Helia picked up the drowsy Ciel and headed back to their room, with Kami following close behind.
Lately, Kami had been hanging around Ciel a lot. Had she finally taken a liking to him?
'Cats' hearts are as fickle as ever.'
I had no idea why the haughty Kami liked Ciel, but if it was good, it was good.
And so the party progressed for a while.
"Parties are always toughest during cleanup."
Vivian, uncharacteristically weak to alcohol for a northern tribeswoman, was dead drunk. Clara was drained from Petra's weapon obsession.
Sylvia, shocked by her first love's true face, was weeping alone with her drink. Elsia was in heated discussion with Foreth about Nabira's gift.
On the other hand, Chloe was rushing to her daughter, who was looking for Mamma, after putting the kids to bed with Ravi's help.
And me, cleaning up alone.
'If these people had fun, they could at least help clean.'
The Village Chief and Tom had leisurely slipped away with their families.
As if they wouldn't get another chance to mess with me.
"If I become an earl, I'll make both of you work like dogs."
I tidied everything at once using the <Inventory> from Helen.
"Put stuff in, sort, done."
This thing really was a total cheat the more you used it.
It changed your quality of life completely.
"Sylvia? We need to clean up now. Stop crying and go sleep in your room. You'll catch a cold."
"Wah... Sian, was Ian really a hound chasing married women and widows?"
"..."
Sylvia's current state was like this:
A high school girl heartbroken after learning the truth about her admired male idol.
And sometimes, the truth was cruel.
"I don't know the details. And the father you two described isn't the whole picture of him."
"True, but..."
Sylvia started crying in my arms.
I stroked her hair and said,
"And the wonderful image of Father you imagined isn't fake. So don't be too disappointed."
"Okay."
She stopped crying at my words.
She was in her forties now, but still had a girlish sensitivity.
"But Sian."
"Yes."
"Do you like older women like Ian?"
"I don't care about age differences."
"Really?"
Excluding Chloe, all the women I'd shared love with were older, but based on my past life age, I was older than Sylvia.
"Age doesn't matter when you like someone."
"Right?"
Sylvia smiled brightly at my words, her face flushed from the alcohol as she looked up at me.
"Don't you mind that I still hold feelings for Ian?"
"Anyone can have a crush. Complaining about that wouldn't be true love."
"Really? I wish you'd get jealous."
"That's how much I love and trust you."
"Hehe, then should I let go of Ian and devote myself to you starting today?"
As she said it, Sylvia wrapped her arms around my waist.
It was a clear invitation.
"Sure. Look only at me from now on."
"Yay~"
I scooped her up and headed to my room.
It wasn't big compared to the others, but the bed was especially large.
Naturally, since it was prepared for making love with my beloved women.
The scent of perfume and soft candlelight created an alluring mood.
I laid Sylvia on the bed and kissed her deeply.
Our mouths tasted of alcohol, but we ignored it, greedily exploring each other's saliva.
Then Sylvia clutched her lower abdomen and said,
"Sian, give me one today. Our child♥"
"Yes. Let's make one together."
According to Helia, to have a boy, you needed to build up yang energy. I didn't know how much I'd accumulated, but with my abstinence record broken, it was sure to work.
Sylvia's life had been tumultuous.
She had the most beautiful appearance as a woman, but few happy days, and due to her Ice Flower Tribe trait, she was fated never to bear a son, tasting a woman's misery.
Even settling in Lugeron Village felt like a prison to her.
That's why Sian wanted to make her happy more than anyone.
The bright, spirited woman.
The one with many cute sides despite her beauty.
The jealous one who wished no one else like her existed.
The one who craved love yet worried for her daughters more than anyone.
He truly wanted her happiness. He worked for it.
Sylvia knew Sian's feelings better than anyone.
His youthful affection and confessions had saved her from her painful past.
"Sian..."
And tonight, Sylvia sought to bear his child.
"I love you."
"I know."
"I love you. I really love you. More than anyone."
Like when Sian first confessed to her, or when she confessed to him, her words came from the depths of her heart.
"Even if it's not a boy. Give me your child tonight."
"Yes, I'll make sure you carry my child tonight."
Sian wasted no time, drawing out his member and thrusting deep inside her.
Feeling Sian's hot shaft after so long, Sylvia trembled, wrapping her legs around his waist.
As if determined to receive his seed tonight.
"Haaah."
"It's been a while, so it's tough? I'll go slower."
"No. You can be rougher."
There was no clear reason, but Sylvia wanted Sian to ravage her more fiercely.
It felt instinctive, like it would help her conceive a boy.
"If you say so, I have no choice. I'll ravage you hard."
As Sylvia wished, Sian took her roughly.
But he infused his member with vitality so she felt no pain.
"Haht!"
According to Helia, properly controlling Hestia's divinity allowed couples to enjoy relations beautifully and pleasurably.
'Maybe Hestia is a lewd goddess?'
With that mildly blasphemous thought, he watched Sylvia's changes.
Under the divinity's influence, hearts formed in her eyes, her body grew hotter, and she craved her beloved man more.
"Sian! Sian! Siiiian! I love you most!"
"I'll cum as much as you love me."
The two made sticky love, bellies pressing together.
They mixed saliva and love juices above and below.
"Chuuup. Haa... Sian. I'm cumming! Gonna cum againnn!"
"Me too."
Sylvia felt his member swelling inside her, while Sian sensed her womb rising, ready for his seed.
Thanks to the intensifying Hestia divinity, she was in perfect conception state. Sian released deep inside with a thick spurt! sound.
