Living in Another World by Commissioning 〜Healing Mage’s Relaxing and Fluffy Manpower Agency〜 - CH 59.2

Everyone’s wounds healed quickly and I could hear exclamations from the slaves who had regained their strength.

Good good, this time there were no slaves who had been cursed or excessively gutted.

I know there are some, of course, and the deal is that I can return them because they’re already too troublesome.

But that’s a hassle too.

By the way, the burnt woman from earlier has become a beautiful lady.

Hmmm, those slanted eyes, I feel like I’ve seen them somewhere before….

「Hey you! Come here!」

「Eh? Ah, yes….」

I don’t know why but Chicken pulled the hand of the newcomer and took her somewhere.

Is there something with her?

「Kyaaaa!!」

I heard a loud cheer at the headquarters. I wonder why.

Well, it has nothing to do with me.

It was a windy night with powdery snow blowing on the glass of the window.

Laura-san and I were sitting across from a board game board in a room full of magic construct beasts we had made for the investigation.

Winter is a season of leisure and Laura-san is pregnant so there was nothing else we could do but pass the time with indoor games.

「Mou, wait a minute.」

「I’ll only wait twice.」

「You say that even though you let me start over and over again as many times as I want.」

「Then, let’s start the next game.」

Pouting, Laura-san raised her hands up and stretched out her back. After that, she lifted the kitten magic construct on her lap and put it on the table.

The kitten moved its short legs a little and settled on the board and then, stopped moving.

「Fuu….now we can’t continue playing.」

「Yeah～, I already won.」

Laura-san, who had done such a childish act, didn’t care about what I said and took a sip of tea and said, “I want to drink sake in winter.”.

No, you can’t. We are both going to stay sober until the baby is born.

「I can’t even smoke. I’m so pissed off.」

I pour warm tea from the teapot into her cup, which she drinks using her lips that are shiny pink even though she doesn’t have any makeup.

「Please hold back for now. In the future, I’m going to tell our child about their mother’s sacrifice in an exaggerated manner.」

「I’m afraid I won’t be able to bear it if I don’t do anything fun.」

Laura-san chuckled and popped an orange-flavored pastry into her mouth.

I tried one myself but the amount of sugar in this kind of royal pastry was too strong for my taste.

「You don’t like it very much, do you? I didn’t want to eat it before too but my taste has suddenly changed recently.」

「Well, yeah….I heard that’s what happens when you get pregnant.」

Laura-san nodded and threw another pastry into her mouth.

「However, eating sweets in a warm place like this every day, I might gain weight.」

「It’s better to get a little fat. Your body currently housing two people after all.」

「Is that so? Hearing you say that makes me feel better.」

Laura-san, you’re muscular to begin with so I think you need to gain a little fat.

I like them a little thick too.

「Speaking of which, how’s your father?」

「Well, he’s still reluctant….」

I’ve been asking my father to name our child for a while….

We’re in a situation where he won’t budge because he’s a commoner grandfather to a noble grandson or whatever reason he can come up with.

I’ve been trying to convince him every week but he’s as stubborn as hell and I can’t get him to agree.

「Don’t overdo it.」

「I’m talking with him properly so you don’t have to worry.」

「As for me, I’m already happy that he blessed our marriage. I don’t want to ask him too much….」

Laura-san looked somewhat forlorn as she said that. I pressed the sleeping kitten to the table on her mouth to stop her from speaking.

She puts the little furball on her palm and I speak with her with a serious expression.

「It’s perfectly fine to ask him. I’m his son and you’re his daughter-in-law. Even if you are not blood-related, you are family.」

「….is that so? Then, please.」
