Chapter 503.2

“You’ve been planning to ask me this from the very beginning, right?” (Yuki)

“Well, don’t be so defensive. It’s a very personal matter. –I’m now married.” (Finar)

“Oh, married... wait, married!?” (Yuki)

I froze and looked like an idiot, making Finar laugh happily.

“Haha, that’s a good response. Yeah, I saw you guys before, and I really thought that having a family might be nice.” (Finar)

Then Enne, who had just been silently munching on a pastry, interjected, “...Congratulations, Uncle Finar. Having a family is good.”

“Thank you, Enne. Yeah, watching your family made me want a wife, as well.”

Enne replied, “...Hmm. I’m very happy every day. I’m sure you’ll be happy as well.”

“I envy you. I’ll have to do my best to have a family like yours.”

I looked at the two of them as they conversed leisurely and finally said something in return after recovering from my shock.

“Well, I guess...I can’t say I’m not impressed with your speed in deciding and then acting.”

It had only been about two months since the last time we walked around the royal capital of the Rogard Empire with this guy.

I remembered him saying at that time that he didn’t have a partner, but to go on from there and end up getting married... should I say, as expected of a King.

In that respect, perhaps I might certainly be better suited for the job.

But I have to admit that Finar’s problems were the same ones I worry about on a daily basis.

What I appreciated about the women in my family was that when I made a mistake, they would always give me a warning with a look of dismay on their faces.

So I was able to think about what I did wrong and what I should have done differently.

Well, I recently reanalyzed myself and thought... perhaps my long life span might have weakened my sex drive.

It was often said that the shorter the lifespan of a race, the more children they have. On the other hand, if they have a long life span, the number of children they have decreases, but there might also be other factors at play, of course.

And since I was a being that lived for more than a thousand years, my instinct for “survival of the species” was probably weaker than when I was a human.

Of course, when the time comes, and the adults in my household felt like doing it, I also get excited, to the point that I would even put my hands together in worship and gratitude when it happens, but other than those times, I usually didn’t have any sexual desire to do anything.

I have already lost most of my human aspects, but it was at times like this that I realized that my race had also molded my new way of thinking.

“Well... I can talk to you about it, but I’m also making a lot of mistakes every day, and I’m getting a lot of grief because of it.”

“But from what I saw at the Rogard Empire, you seemed to be getting along very well. You’re definitely doing better than I am. I’d love to know your secret in getting along with girls.”

That’s something I’d like to know as well.

“...Okay. I can’t speak high and mighty about my experiences, but I’ll tell you what I’ve learned and need to be careful about.”

“That’s what I want to hear the most.”

Somehow...I wondered if this King, regardless of his position, saw me as an equal friend, if he was willing to listen to me about these things.

I felt a little happy about that.
