Choosing the Baby’s Father From the Following – Chapter 7.1

Chapter 7

From the possessed’s point of view, the main character’s affection wasn’t exactly welcome.

‘𝘐 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯, 𝘓𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘬 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘢𝘳𝘬 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘢𝘨𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘨𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘬 𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘤𝘬 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳, 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵?’

If he found out that his sister who had turned into a lady was now pregnant, wouldn’t he go crazy as well?

Anxiously, I pushed him away slightly, and for a moment, a black vortex seemed to flicker in Lurick’s red eyes, which looked exactly like mine.

‘𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵?’

I set it up so that his red eyes flash black as a sign of going berserk…….

‘𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘯 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘣𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘥.’

No, why is he doing that now?!

‘𝘐’𝘮 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘭𝘺 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦, 𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳!’

There’s no sign of pregnancy yet, is there?

Lurick turned around as is and headed to the main building as he was to meet with the Emperor.

Phoebe and I were mixed in with the nobles, and we didn’t move until everyone was headed to the banquet hall.

“His Highness has gotten thinner, but it feels like he has become even more handsome. Even the look in his eyes has grown deeper….”

Knowing his temper, Phoebe made a naive remark.

‘𝘏𝘪𝘴 𝘦𝘺𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯’𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘦𝘱𝘦𝘳, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺’𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘭𝘰𝘥𝘦.’

Well, the fact that Lurick could be affected by the magic sword was a secret that even he didn’t know.

The Imperial Family kept it a secret.

‘𝘚𝘰, 𝘪𝘵’𝘴 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘴.’

Therefore, even among the nearby nobles, the naive young ladies subtly nodded their heads in agreement with Phoebe.

‘𝘖𝘩, 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘳.’

I sighed and climbed the stairs, but instead of going to the dining hall like the other nobles, I headed to the audience chamber on the top floor.

As it was a special day, the door to the audience chamber was slightly open, and the nobles, unable to enter, were peering outside and listening to the Emperor’s voice.

Just then, Lurick’s voice was heard.

“Forgive my late return, Your Majesty.”

It was a greeting not to his father, but to his lord.

At that moment, knights who appeared to be Lurick’s subordinates walked down the hallway and entered the audience chamber carrying a long chest.

Then they opened the lid of the chest for all to see.

I frowned and stepped back as I discovered the four stained helmets inside.

“Ha, hahaha.”

However, the Emperor laughed out loud in front of them, as if the mere sight of them smelled of blood.

Lurick’s voice continued.

“Fortunately, I was able to offer every single one of them.”

“Good work, my son.”

Only after hearing that voice did I take another step forward to assess the atmosphere in the audience chamber.

I wanted to know if Lurick was receiving proper praise and encouragement.

The Emperor placed one hand on Lurick’s shoulder.

The Emperor’s gloved hand struck the hard shoulder plate Lurick was wearing with a heavy sound a couple of times.

—Thud, thud.

For the victory he had dedicated three years to, that was the end of the praise.

Someone nearby acted friendly and lightly hugged Lurick as if to lift him up.

“My, you really have the beast’s scent all over you.”

Judging from the informal speech and black hair, it was Crown Prince Hart.

Hart said that nonchalantly, then added as if it were a joke.

“You’ve been through a lot. You’re the main character, you have to shine. Go wash up before you go to the banquet hall.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Lurick replied immediately, but I didn’t miss his red eyes darkening and flickering once more.

‘𝘐𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘮𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘦’𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘭𝘭…….’

Hart didn’t even look at Lurick properly and smiled with satisfaction at his half-brother’s docile reply.

The Emperor, too, was drunk with victory and said with a smile on his face.

“Well then, I’ll see you all at the banquet hall.”

Look at these irresponsible men.

Hello, please take a good look at our second prince’s condition……!

Something’s wrong with him……!
