Ahead of Alma, Takeo and the others were headed to Williams' office.
"Ah..."
Alma stops at the sight of the royal castle's backyard.
Takeo and Gina, who are walking behind Alma, also stop.
At the end of Alma's gaze was a small tree.
"Our wedding anniversary tree... has grown..."
Tears streamed from one eye at the same time as Alma shrugged about what she cared.
Takeo and Gina look at Alma without saying anything.
"... Mr. Takeo.
It could be me, the prince's disqualification.
Takeo and Gina say nothing.
"Just now... you told me Leila had a child in her stomach.
I'd be delighted to be William's wife and third prince family, and I had to congratulate Leila.
... My first feeling was remorse.
It's not that William is bad, it's not that Layla is bad, let alone that Layla's belly child is bad!
But... the first one... the first one I wanted to have... "
Alma is crying pompous.
"I don't think this kind of person can be in the prince's proper room.
Takeo and Gina say nothing.
"I've been married to William for 8 years.
It's been almost four years since Leila's been here... and a lot's happened.
Heh heh, while your father-in-law and William were away watching the customary war against the demonic kingdom, a civilian said, 'Next time we're going to test all noble sons, why don't we pick a side room from the superior? William would welcome Layla back to the side room, or the top of the exam would be Alice and Clarissa.
I couldn't have kids, but... it was fun.
Alma squeaks with a distant eye.
"... Mr. Alma.
"Hmm? What, Mr. Takeo?
"I don't know about the royal family.
What are you casting a sense of sadness about?
You're still in your 20s, aren't you, Alma?
Takeo tells me to blur.
"It's 28 now.
But if I don't give birth for eight years... they're gonna say useless things to me.
Alma laughs bitterly.
"If you're still 28, you can give birth.
And from now on, Mr. Leila is on maternity leave, so will His Highness William's night be exclusive to Mr. Alma?
I think you have a good chance of having your first boy, though.
"Hmm?... Aah! I see, you could say that.
Yeah, yeah! Right! Let's think about it!
Alma laughs with pleasure as the grief she had just had is a lie.
But the dry smile looked painful from Takeo.
"... and Konoha can take care of her mother and child, but privately, she also thinks she can adjust her physical condition.
"Hmm? What do you mean?
"We also think it will be possible to take a woman's body to a state where the seeds of her child are easily implanted.
"I wonder if I can..."
"Mr. Alma, why don't you talk to Konoha later?
What do I do to derive a date that is easy to give birth to first and then go towards it?
Do what you do, and then let it gloat.
"Okay, I'll talk to Lord Konoha later for now.
Can I borrow Alice, too?
"Yeah, I don't mind.
Well, since my two sisters are pregnant, Alice, I don't think that's the place for a lady.
"Oh, yeah, maybe.
Then I'll just borrow Lord Konoha and talk to him.
Alma comes out with the usual brightness.
"And I think the qualities of a normal room are the ability to protect the family, and the effort to avoid making a difference between the couple.
And I don't think it was the qualities of a regular room to envy a child because he was made first in the side room, I just think he was jealous because it was his instinct to want a child of a man he'd met and that was the other woman.
You wouldn't be the Azpearl royal family who cares about the birth order of their children because it's a regular room or a side room, would you?
At least I don't think His Majesty or the princes have that idea in all I'm talking about.
"Yeah, well... I'm an idiot.
You knew it wasn't something that would determine a normal room with or without a child.
Alma laughed.
"... Takeo, I'm sorry I'm in the middle of a conversation.
Pana grows into a human being and shows up next to Takeo and talks.
"Hmm? What about this woman?
Alma asks.
"My spiritual name is Panacaia, commonly known as Pana. The doctor will put you in the second lab for research next time.
"Phew, the Spirit is studying. Looks like you can make something amazing.
So, what happened to Lord Pana?
"Yeah.
I've been wondering about you just now.
Didn't Konoha tell you, my lady?
Pana asks me strangely.
"Huh?... they didn't say anything...?
Leila's kid wants to make a deal with the Spirit, so I moved to the office in a hurry...
You got something?
"No, you're pregnant, too.
"... yes?
Alma listens back with a true face.
"That's why you're pregnant too.
It's a boy.
"Yeah yeah!?!?!?!?"
Pana made a shocking confession.
