“Bobby! What have you been up to in the morning?”

I greeted a middle-aged woman with a warm impression as she entered the quarters.

“My dad picked the raspberries early in the morning. I thought you were just eating breakfast. I’ve washed it, so try it for dessert.”

Bobby held out the basket in front of me.

“Thank you for taking care of all those things.”

The big-nail-sized raspberries were packed in the basket.

I laughed and accepted Bobby’s flag as a daughter.

“But early in the morning, you’re not hurt, are you? At dawn, a swarm of mana came from the mountain.”

“Thanks to the professors and teachers, there was nothing wrong with the lower village. Go ahead and try it.”

“Bobby! What have you been up to in the morning?”

I greeted a middle-aged woman with a warm impression as she entered the quarters.

“My dad picked the raspberries early in the morning. I guess you were just eating. I’ve washed it, so try it for dessert.”

Bobby held out the basket in front of me.

The big-nail-sized raspberries were packed in the basket.

“Thank you for taking care of all these things….”

I laughed and accepted the raspberry that Bobby extruded.

“By the way, early in the morning, you didn’t get hurt, did you? At dawn, a swarm of mana came from the mountain.”

“Thanks to the professors and teachers, there was nothing wrong with the lower village. Go ahead and try it.”

Bobby smiled and urged.

After a bout of nausea, I still felt nauseous, and I was afraid of nauseating again.

But I ate a few because I thought of the sincerity that you brought.

Fortunately, it went well without any problems.

As the pulp broke, the sweet and sour strawberry scent spread through the mouth.

With a sharp appetite, I said, hurriedly eating raspberries.

“Oh, Bobby, I think the soup you made yesterday has gone bad. Maybe it’s because it’s getting warmer these days.”

“Soup?! I don’t think so. It was boiled with the stuff that I just dug up.”

Bobby looked surprised at my words, and ran to the kitchen, unstoppable.

“Let me take a look, professor.”

‘Should I have just thrown it away without saying anything?’

I thought I shouldn’t have said anything, then I ended up following her.

Bobby, who had already opened the lid of the pot with soup and tasted it, looked back at me.

“It sounds fine.”

“Really? But why do I… Ugh!”

It was the moment I stood by her side and looked in the pot.

The disgusting smell that I smelled earlier hit my nose again.

There was no stopping it, and the nausea sprang out.

“Oh, professor! Are you all right?!”

“Ugh! Urk!”

Bobby asked with eyes wide open with astonishment.

But after a series of verbal abuse, I could not stand it and ran to the bathroom.

However, there was nothing that came out, unlike the fluctuating mood that made me want to vomit right away.

It took me quite a while before I came out with a mouthful and a scowl.

‘I don’t think it was this bad. What’s wrong with me..’

I used to feel very sick these days, but I’ve never been this serious.

‘Maybe I should ask Jean to put on some healing magic…’

Before returning to the capital, I was thinking about going to Jean as a last resort.

At that moment, my eyes met with Bobby, who was stamping her feet in the living room.

“That…”

As she hesitated with a sweet lip, she finally whispered with a determined face.

“I’ll keep it a secret, lady. Don’t worry.”

“What? What are you…”

As I tilted my head at a random remark, I suddenly felt her gaze touched my stomach.

And right away I realized what she suspected and jumped up and down.

“Oh, no, such a thing…!”

I waved my hands in contemplation.

It was in line with Calisto that he had no intention of having an accident before marriage. (?)

Of course, he was a little different from me because he was in the position of being married for more than five years to be compensated for his five-year separation. (?)

‘I’ve been so thorough with contraception…’ (I don’t think it was enough ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°))

It was about that time.

A scene similar to the conversation I had with Callisto flashed through my mind.

– ….Excuse me, I don’t know whose fiance it is, but you look handsome today.

-Huh, excuse you? You said you had to go early tomorrow. Stop drinking and go to sleep.

-I’m disappointed, It’s not like the old days anymore.

-Ha… You’ve decided to hit it off today. What’s wrong with you again?

-Dude, I threw away my busy work to wish you a happy birthday, but then I see you here flirting with the other girls saying hello…

-When did I do that?!

-I see now. You dare push me away when I’m tyring to seduce you?! Are those girls better than me? Huh? Then I’ll keep on doing this, Mr. Call!

-It’s been a while since we’ve met, and we drank a lot. I don’t know who is really upset here… Wait, princess. Are you crazy?! You’re gonna rip my clothes, let go!

-Ah, stay still! I’ll kill you today.

-This is really…

“Crazy…”

I couldn’t make myself to remember my words from the memory I had completely forgotten, and my forehead was swollen.

It happened a month ago when it was the emperor’s 28th birthday.

Calisto, who grew up on that day, shone brilliantly.

It’s not that he’s not, but everyone’s eyes were on him when I looked around.

My fiancée attended, and the aristocrats greeted him with their daughters or nephews.

It meant there was a chance because he was not married yet.

Normally, I wasn’t able to hold on to the momentum of the duke, but the duke was absent because he didn’t want to celebrate the emperor’s birthday.

When I saw the beautifully dressed women appearing everywhere, my neck burnt, so I kept sipping the champagne without realizing it.

Naturally I got drunk, and then Callisto came to stop me.

As a result…

“Oh, my God…”

My eyes became dizzy. It was when I staggered as if I was going to fall.

“Professor! You have to be careful now…”

Her words made me feel more dizzy.

Bobby came up quickly and helped me.

I answered Bobby in a voice that was unsure.

“I’m not sure yet….”

“Have you counted the menstrual cycle?”

I shook my head.

There were many nights when I worked, so the original cycle was irregular.

“I need to go to Horte and get some madogu right now. Bobby, could you secretly prepare a carriage for me?”

I pulled myself together and asked her.

There, instead of a pregnancy tester, they checked whether one was pregnant with Magudo. (I don’t know what Magudo is)

The Magudo store was in a manor far away from Maltban, a mountain technology.

Jean’s mobile magic can go there within an hour, but he is the emperor’s faithful servant, and the first person to hide this fact from.

“Wouldn’t it be too far to get to Horte by carriage? It’ll take two days even if you keep going….”

Bobby said with a worried look.

But I wanted to run out and check it right away.

“There’s no way I can go with Jean. I’ll be closed for two days because I’m sick, can you tell him not to disturb me?”

“Professor, there’s…. a common way to confirm pregnancy in our town.”

“Really? What is it? Let me know!”

At Bobby’s words, I was delighted and inquired.

But she shook her head with hesitation.

“I think it’s dangerous because a lot of mana appears these days. It’d be better to just ask Jean to take you there…”

“You know how cheap Jean is! Bobby, please….!”

In my pleas, Bobby confessed the method as if she had no choice.

After hearing it, I turned bright.

“……It’s simpler than I thought, isn’t it?”

“It’s an eerie night, so I’m worried. Can I go with you, Professor?”

“No, it happens to be near the work site, so I can go alone.”

I smiled and reassured the worried Bobby.
