How the Villainous Consort Avoids His Death Ending - Chapter 116.1
❖ ❖ ❖
The Emperor has begun to harbor doubts regarding Everett’s birth. Now that he has begun investigating in that direction, it will not be easy for Everett to overcome this difficulty. Everett’s authority stems from being the “Emperor’s only adult son.” However, if he were not the Emperor’s son from the beginning, there would have been no need for him to compete for the throne with Constantine. Everett would be nothing more than a traitor.
However, since the suspicion has only just begun, it will take some time.
While waiting leisurely for the results, news arrived that the glass mood lights proposed by Sawyer were enjoying sensational popularity in the Port of Belforte. Everything was going so well. Except for one thing, that is. What that is…
What it is…
“There is no need to worry so much, Ruellin.”
“How can I not worry?”
“I don’t care at all whether we have a child or not. You are already this delicate; how could you handle a dangerous childbirth? Your health is a much more important matter.”
“It’s not that kind of problem…”
No child is being conceived…
I buried my forehead into the table and let out a deep, heavy sigh. Tristan sat closely by my side and consoled me diligently with a face full of guilt, but it provided no comfort at all.
At first, I had felt a sense of aversion due to the fear of pregnancy and childbirth, but after three full years passed without a child, I was merely devastated. Could it be that the problem isn’t mine? Is there a problem with Tristan? Since there are no fertility clinics, no one knows!
Not at all! The system clearly guided you during the early days of your possession. It is certain that you, the user, have a recessive Omega constitution that is close to infertility. Fight on! ♡
‘…’
Are you teasing me? You are. Or, are you provoking me?
In any case, since it is indeed my fault, the recessive trait must be quite formidable. I suppose that is why Viscount Elsworth despised me so much.
“Or are you concerned because of the successor? There is no need to worry. As for the successor, we can simply adopt a clever child from among our relatives.”
No. That’s not it. You’re wrong about that too…
That’s not it. The problem is that I cannot even sleep well at night for fear that the fairy who regained his winged clothes might fly away and run off. The brainwashing effect of the ‘Fairy and the Woodcutter’ story is so terrible that I cannot cure this paranoia that flares up from time to time. This is why early education is important.
Of course, I trust Tristan. I do trust him, I do, but, it is true that I trust him, but…
Even so, I wanted to have a baby and build a family before the “true Grand Consort” who existed in the original work appeared.
‘Still, since there is more than five years left, well…’
It will be fine. Actually, even if it weren’t for a child, I didn’t think Tristan would give his heart to the “true Grand Consort” at this point. People say there is the power of the original plot, but among the countless possession novels I have read, none of them ever followed the original plot exactly anyway.
This was just like a seizure that visited whenever I was bored. It seems like it’s been too long since anything particular happened. Come to think of it, it’s about time for something to break out, so why is it so quiet…?
[You have been waiting for an event! Not letting down the user’s expectations, the system has arrived ♥] [☆The Prelude to Pestilence, the Black Rat Swarm Moves!☆ Event Occurred!] Suspicious signs have been captured in a quiet village on the fringes of Hezekia. A black wave wriggling and digging into piles of garbage in alleys and corners of old grain warehouses. Swarms of black rats with a bizarre luster in their eyes begin to move. ※Warning: These rats are not simple rodents. The black rat swarm carries a horrific infectious disease. It is a terrifying plague that rapidly drives not only the elderly and weak but even perfectly healthy young people to the brink of death. Before the plague sweeps through the village, hurry to respond to the black rat swarm and block the spread of the disease! Objective: Stop the spread of the plague reaching the fringe regions and minimize damage by setting up hospitals or conducting quarantine operations.
